4186 Fuling South

Xiao Letian sat opposite the second young master, "Second Young Master, I won't go around in circles with you. Now you understand the situation in the court. Do you have any ideas?"

Zeng Jihongyuan does not have the ability to make decisions as his elder brother, he is young and has never trained in the court. When encountering such a thing, he really has no choice but to be angry, but he has one advantage that he can tell the difference between listening to others' advice!

Without saying a word, the second young master stood up and bowed deeply to Xiao Letian. "The head of state has been making friends with his father. Now the family has changed drastically, and my nephew is really in a mess!"

"Please teach me, my nephew will follow you!"

"Actually, I don't need to teach you. The Grandmaster has left you a lasting fate. Please see..." Xiao Letian took out a two-finger-wide strip from his pocket, which was written by Zeng Jihong very familiar with.

A short line of words: "After leaving for my father, I will have funeral matters, ask the head of state for foreign affairs, and ask the old peasants if I do not decide on internal affairs. If there is any cold behavior in the court, leave quickly!"

This is the note left by the Grand Marshal when he was looking back. Why don’t he give it to Xiao Letian but his son? The main reason is that he thinks it is possible that this note is not useful!

This is also Zeng Guofan's infatuation. He still feels that he has made such a great contribution to the court, so he can't show off too much!

The emperor pays his condolences, court rewards, and a grand burial! Who in the ancients didn't like this, but if the situation did not develop like this, then the note given to Xiao Letian would work.

"Second Young Master, I'm sorry, the court is very strange now! The Japanese Sixth is not such a happy and outspoken person?"

"Even if he has any grudges with the Grand Marshal, he would not be so cold and arrogant at the funeral! And have you noticed it? Zai Cheng did not follow Yi? Come and pay condolences!"

"The remaining royal ministers in the capital are also extremely indifferent, just sending the butler to send gifts... Except for a few nobles with little power, no one comes in person!"

"I don't know what's going to happen, but I always feel that the limelight is bad... If the second young master listens to me, then leave! I will get up immediately!"

"Go back to your hometown! At the worst, you must go to Baoding Prefecture, Zhili! You will take the coffin of the Grand Marshal to the Zhili Governor's Office of Baoding... The Grand Marshal also has the position of the Governor of Zhili, so it is reasonable to go there!"

"The soldiers from Liangxiang and Zhuozhou escort the coffin to the south immediately... The eldest son, I took it to Baoding by airship. After you two brothers meet in Baoding, you will immediately return to Hunan!"

"Dingyou who should be worried, and filial piety who should be worried... Beijing City is a tiger's den, your father or Jiushang can still mix together, but the two young masters can't do it!"

"Ah!" Zeng Jihong's face turned pale. "Can't the court bend to kill the donkey and punish my father?"

"Not... it's not that serious. Your Majesty is not a loving person. This time he didn't come to pay his respects. He was stopped by the two empress dowagers. It's not that Your Majesty doesn't want to come!"

"No wonder your majesty, there was a conflict between the wedding and the funeral, so your majesty can only consider the wedding first!"

"I'm worried about others... I'm afraid that someone will be thwarted by the death!"

At this time, the door of the room was knocked and the old farmer said outside, "I have comforted my brothers, there will be no trouble... Does the second young master have any instructions?"

Zeng Jihong opened the door and pulled the old farmer into the room. Then he closed the door tightly. The two-finger-wide note was handed to his hand, "Uncle Nong, look at this... I really don't know what to do!"

Then the second young master repeated the things Xiao Letian told me. After reading them, the old farmer stuffed the notes into his mouth without saying a word and swallowed them. "Listen to the head of state! When writing this note, I was guarding the door. I knew that this note exists..."

"The capital is in chaos now. The head of state is right, it is right to hide..."

"But...but...but is it bad to move the coffin just now that my father passed away...?"

"Second Young Master, when is it time to care about these things? The general in the sky also misses home! The court has already had signs of killing donkeys. Don't you avoid disaster?"

"If you are worried about unlucky, after you arrive at the Governor's Office of Zhili, please ask the monks and Taoists to recite scriptures and pray for blessings!"

Xiao Letian looked at Zeng Jihong and was still a little hesitant, and couldn't help but stomp his feet, "Hey... what else can I have to be attached to? The court no longer cared about you, and they are already rushing to give you shamelessness. Why are you still licking your face and leaning in the capital?"

"After all the time, this place is also a rented house. The Grand Marshal never thought of taking root in the capital!"

This sentence touched the second young master's affection. He wiped his tears, "Yes... I don't like us anymore, why are you still here to do? Let's go!"

The elder brother was not here, and the other uncles were not here. Everyone had to follow the orders of the second son. In addition, the old farmer also supported him, and no one in the entire Marshal's Mansion had any objections!

The people of Nanheng Street never expected that the Grand Marshal had no in the morning and had already started to move his soul just after noon!

"Oh... I've never seen such a mourning person? Where is the Grandmaster going?"

"Yes, I still think that the mourning of being an official in the past two days will be over, so we neighbors will also be kowtowed? It's a neighbor who lives here, so it's a matter of being a neighbor!"

"That's... the Grand Marshal can live in Nancheng and live with us. He has no airs on weekdays. He will take the initiative to help anyone in trouble..."

"If you don't say anything else, just rush to the Grand Marshal's Mansion here. There are fewer gangsters and arresting personnel in Nanheng Street. No one dares to come here to make trouble!"

"Forget it, we can't stop the Grandmaster from moving our spirits. Go to the street corner to kowtow to the coffin. It is the end of our fate with the Grandmaster..."

The four horse-drawn cart was fixed with a coffin with golden nanmu. The outer cover was covered with curtains to cover the sun. Paper money was flying all over the sky. The cavalry who were opening the way were wearing mourning clothes. The Zeng family's family walked forward with the coffin. The crying sounded along the way, and the funeral team dragged it out for two miles!

Nanheng Street and the surrounding alleys were sensational. The people in the capital like to watch the fun and are loyal. When the general lives here, he not only does not disturb the people, but also takes care of the neighbors. The man in the capital has to be a little concerned.

The people kneeling on both sides of the road lit the incense burner and lit paper money to kneel down to see off the Magistrate. "Magistrate walked all the way..."

"The handsome man is going all the way..."

"Filial son... Thank you!"

At the entrance of almost every alley, there were groups of people kneeling and bowing to see them off. The second young master Zeng Jihong had become a kowtower worm. Under the order of the Lord, he kowtowed almost every three steps to repay the gift to the neighbors!

There was actually Xiao Letian who was moving forward. He grabbed the coffin and carriage with one hand and said with a serious expression, "Master General... I'll take you out of Yongding Gate!"

"I want to see what evil things will happen in this capital!"

Just as Marshal Zeng's coffin left the capital all the way south, the joy of the inner city in the north also reached its peak, giving golden seals to the queen's house. The team of golden books walked along the streets, and the entire inner city became a sensational ocean!

The royal dowry will be delivered to the Queen's Mansion today, and the Queen and the dowry will form a long team tomorrow and then enter the Forbidden City from the Qing Gate!

Drums and music are sounding, firecrackers are roaring, and the crowds are watching the fun are full of people!
