Chapter 146 The Queen Mother dies and recruits troops!
"Brother Zhang, I see there are many people outside. What are they doing?"
Zhang Liao told the identity of the old Liu Yamen and the exile of prisoners.
Liu Yanhui's eyes widened immediately: "Can't the new county magistrate wait for the snow to melt before sending him off? It's been a hard journey for Brother Liu!"
Old Liu smelled the fragrant big bones, and before they were heated, he tore off a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
"The county magistrate can't help it. This is an order from above, amnesty for the whole world!"
Liu Yanhui's eyes lit up.
"Brother Liu, why are you granting amnesty?"
......
"My lord, the Queen Mother passed away. The imperial court is granting amnesty to the whole world!" Liu Yanhui looked at it carefully. Take a look at Shen Lanxi's reaction.
Who in the capital doesn't know that the Queen Mother regards Shen Lanxi as the apple of her eye. She has been taken into the Queen Mother's palace to raise her since she was a child. Even the princes and princesses must shun her favors.
The Queen Mother should be different in her mind!
Shen Lanxi opened the window and let the cold wind and snow hit her face!
After a while, she finally said: "Prepare sacrifices!"
"Yes!"
"Tell the Shen family!"
< br>Liu Yanhui: "Yes!"
Shen Lanxi locked herself in the room for two days. When she came out on the third day, Liu Yanhui and others looked at her worriedly.
"I'm fine, don't worry!"
Wei Dongzhu also came, and he raised his hand to take off the mask on his face.
Shen Lanxi glanced at him, and then replied to Liu Yan: "Are the sacrifices ready?"
Liu Yan replied: "They are prepared every day, and they are changed every day!"
< br>Shen Lanxi: "Generally, what are the regulations when an elderly person dies in the family?"
Liu Yanhui didn't understand why she asked, but she still said: "Notify relatives and friends after the death of the deceased!"
>Shen Lanxi: "Then get ready!"
Liu Yan replied:?
What?
Why didn’t he understand?
"Lord, if I understand correctly, are you going to hold a funeral for the Queen Mother?"
Shen Lanxi squinted at him: "Isn't it possible?"
Liu Yan replied: Damn, it’s true!
"The Queen Mother is in the capital!"
Shen Lanxi: "I didn't say I wanted to bury her?"
Liu Yan replied with a twitch in the corner of her mouth: This is something ordinary people can't do Can't do it!
Wei Dongzhu: "My lord, do you mean to build a tomb?"
Shen Lanxi: "Without a tomb, it can't be a mourning hall?"
Wei Dongzhu: " ...Alright!”
“Get ready!”
Liu Yan turned around and caught up with Wei Dongzhu who came out first.
“What do you think the lord is thinking?”
Wei Dongzhu somewhat understood Shen Lanxi's approach, and he also wanted to hold a funeral for Wei Jiajun!
"My lord is a filial man. Since he cannot attend the Queen Mother's funeral in person, there is nothing wrong with arranging one here to express his condolences!"
After Wei Dongzhu finished speaking, he quickened his pace.
Liu Yan Hui thought to herself, he couldn't do it alone, he had to find Cheng Zheng and the others.
He turned on his heels and rushed towards the small courtyard where Cheng Zheng and others were.
......
"What did you say?" Mrs. Shen asked in a voiceless voice.
Shen Yuanjing gritted his teeth and said: "Eldest sister said that she would hold a funeral for the elders in the family, so she asked me to inform the family!"
Mrs. Shen was so angry that a stream of old blood stuck in her chest. He asked angrily: "Who is the elder in her family? Is she going to have trouble with our Shen family!"
Shen Yuanjing quickly explained: "Grandma, the Queen Mother has passed away!"
Mrs. Shen froze, looking a little dazed: "What did you say?"
"The Queen Mother passed away!" Mrs. Shen had a sullen face, glanced at Mr. Shen aside, and waved: "You guys go down first. , Yuan Jing, go tell your mother!”
“Yes!”
Half an hour later, the Shen family gathered together.
～
The mourning hall was decorated quickly and was ready the next day.
The night before Liu Yan returned, she took a jar of sorghum wine and sat with Zhang Liao for a while. The next day, rumors began to spread in the village that an elder of the Shen family had died on the way to Dongchuan, and a make-up funeral would be held today!
Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen did not come, but their four sons, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren at home all came.
Shen Lanxi knelt in the position of her grandchildren. There were only Shen family members in the mourning hall, no guests. Some rules should be avoided if possible!
"Lan Xi, there are no outsiders here. It's cold on the ground. Don't break your knees!"
"Yes, Miss, your health is important!"
The women of the Shen family, please give me advice. road!
The door creaked open, Wei Jiajun brought in several braziers, and Haruyuki also brought in the prepared futons.
The temperature in the room increased little by little, and soon it was warmer than their home!
Everyone in the Shen family’s eyebrows relaxed, with nostalgia flashing in their eyes.
When we were in the capital, their room was always so warm every winter.
After a while, Zhang Liao came with his family. Everyone in the Shen family was stunned. They didn't expect anyone to come!
Liu Yanhui temporarily acted as a propaganda person.
“Thank you guests!”
The Shen family members quickly saluted.
After a while, the women from Liu Zhao Village and the students from Qinglan Academy came one after another.
“Thank you to the guests!”
Afterwards, the prisoners who were exiled together came in twos and threes!
The funeral immediately became lively!
Mother Wang thought she would just prepare meals for them, but she didn’t expect so many people to come. If you tell people to leave quickly, Liu Yan will come back.
"Lord, what is the standard of the food?"
Shen Lanxi: "The visitor is a guest!"
"Understood!"
Liu Yanhui immediately launched The women of Liuzhao Village went to the kitchen to help.
In the blink of an eye, the aroma of food came from the kitchen.
The people of Hongliutun, some curse, some have stomach ache, and some have wrong ideas.
"You said, if we go to help, will we take care of the food?"
"Are you embarrassed to go?"
"How about we go and take a look?"
"From now on, we are all neighbors. Send a cabbage over there and help the kitchen!"
"I think so too!"
After a while There are more people in Hongliutun.
The Shen family began to thank them non-stop.
During lunch, there were not so many plates, tables, chairs and benches, so Liu Yan told everyone to go home, get their bowls and chopsticks, and eat a big pot of rice!
Divide the dishes prepared previously into everyone's bowls evenly.
Even though it was so simple, everyone who ate there laughed!
There is meat in the bowl, not just three or two pieces, but several large pieces. There are chicken, duck, pig, bacon, fresh and salted meat, and the taste is quite good!
The key is that there are still steamed buns. Even if there are no steamed buns at the end of the meal, the pancakes are finished and they are happy.
How many winters have they not had such a full meal? It’s so good that they have almost forgotten what steamed buns and meat taste like!
"Are you coming tonight?"
"Come on, there will definitely be a wake-up call here at night!"
"Bah, there's not even a coffin, what a waste of time! Spirit! But we can’t have a funeral without people.”
“I think it’s okay, this family is really willing to burn charcoal, I’m sweating!”
Eat! After dinner, the guests went back together. They were all so happy that they didn't feel like they were attending a funeral, but rather like they were attending someone's wedding banquet!
For three consecutive days, Liu Yan looked back at the rapidly shrinking warehouse and almost pulled out all her hair.
Fortunately, three days passed in a blink of an eye, and I was finally able to be buried!
Just when Liu Yan was thinking about going to the county to buy something, Zhang Liao suddenly received a military order.
“Recruit troops!”
