"Die for me..."
Jiang Wang sat lazily and twitched the corner of his mouth.
Chong Xuansheng had to admit that from this angle, Jiang's appearance was really not that ugly! Especially his sarcastic, careless smile, which seemed a bit like a prince.
Of course, he had no idea that Jiang Wang's carelessness at the moment was because more of his energy was spent on dealing with the bruises at the corners of his eyes. The strength of a real person in this world was not so easy to digest. Fortunately, Jiang already had a lot of strength.
experience.
"If I take the initiative to deal with the Bao family in the future, wouldn't it be even more unkind?" Jiang Wang added in order to divert attention.
Zhong Xuansheng curled his lips: "Yes, everyone knows how to draw inferences from one example."
"Aren't they afraid that I will disregard the dignity of Lord Lao Shizi and stand up to expose it?" Jiang Wang asked.
Chong Xuansheng smiled: "The Bao family has never admitted that Bao Zhongqing died for you. Those are all rumors in the market. Can you blame the Bao family? The Bao family's claim is that Bao Zhongqing died to fight against a cult.
He died while serving a righteous cause. Why, the man is already dead. How much hatred do you, Marquis Wu An, have against the Bao family, and you still want to trample on his reputation? Besides, Bao Zhenren’s eldest son died on the battlefield, and he died on the battlefield.
My second son died in the wave of killing evil, and I am heartbroken, so you don’t care so much about the feelings of the commander-in-chief of the Nine Soldiers?"
Jiang Wang thought for a moment and sighed: "Master Bao's methods are really smooth. They are far from comparable to Bao Zhongqing's."
He asked again: "How do you think Bao Zhongqing died?"
Chong Xuansheng shook his head: "I don't want to guess, and there is no need to guess. The eldest son of the Bao family, the Bao family's family affairs behind closed doors. I will listen to whatever the Bao family says."
"I will go to his funeral." Jiang Wang sighed softly: "No matter what happened in the past, people should go and see if their grudges are gone."
At the beginning of the year, Bao Zhongqing got married, with red makeup all over the streets, how beautiful it was?
Marrying a lovely wife, becoming the heir apparent, and entering Jixia Academy can be said to be a satisfying life.
Unexpectedly, he was already dead before the year was over.
And he died so mysteriously and silently.
Although Jiang Wang had no good impression of Bao Zhongqing and no nostalgia for him, he could not help but lament the impermanence of the world.
When he first met Bao Zhongqing in Linzi, he was still very vigilant. Like Chongxuan Sheng at that time, he regarded him as a dangerous person. Even at that time, he could not be said to be Bao Zhongqing's opponent. He could only fight against Bao Zhongqing.
The hangers-on...
Times have changed now.
The noble son of an aristocratic family who paid great attention to the gate of worship, drew the chariot drawn by demons, and opened the way with masters, and appeared in glory, has become a withered skeleton in the grave.
No one can deny that Bao Zhongqing is indeed a dangerous person. But if he is dead, he is dead. If he dies, everything will be in vain.
His city, his talent, and his future all came to an abrupt end——
Just like his eldest brother.
"I will go too." Chong Xuansheng said: "I have known Bao Mazi since I was very young. I can't say that we share the same problem, but to a certain extent, we are very similar... If I hadn't been fourteen, I wouldn't have known you.
.Maybe I am like him."
I don't know why, but this sentence vaguely reminded Jiang Wang of something. But he didn't have time to think about it carefully at the moment.
He only looked at Zhong Xuansheng carefully and said seriously: "You are completely different."
"Tell me about it." Zhongxuan Shengshi leaned back and smiled: "What's the difference?"
Jiang Wang also smiled: "You look better than him."
"Looking more pleasing to the eye than Bao Mazi is not something that makes people happy."
"Then what is worthy of your happiness?"
"Do you know about the Linzi Beauty List?"
"I've vaguely heard about it. It's not worth mentioning. It's not worth mentioning. You know, I don't care about these false claims..."
Chong Xuan Sheng snorted from his nostrils and said in a serious tone: "Look into my eyes and tell me honestly that I am much more handsome than Chong Xuan Zun."
Jiang Wangzhen stared at Zhong Xuansheng's eyes for a while, and then he said with a broken face: "I really can't say anything."
Zhong Xuansheng sighed directly: "You deserve to go out without money and your pockets are empty! You don't deserve money!"
Jiang Wang laughed loudly, just laughed, waved his hand and said: "Let's go quickly, pick me up on time tomorrow, and we will go to Shuofang Bo's Mansion together."
Zhong Xuansheng’s eyes widened: “You’re chasing me away?”
"No. But Shi Shi is still waiting for you at home, right?"
"Is there something you're hiding from me?"
"You're thinking too much." Jiang Wang said helplessly: "I'm just ready to practice."
Chong Xuan Sheng looked at him suspiciously for a while.
Jiang Wang rested his forehead on his hand on the desk with an innocent look on his face.
"No, why haven't you changed your posture since I came in?"
"Really?" Jiang Wang blinked, leaned back, and naturally gave Chong Xuan Sheng a sideways look: "Go back quickly, Fourteenth should be waiting in a hurry."
Chong Xuan Sheng said, "Then I'll go back."
He walked out and reached the door, when he suddenly dodged and rushed in front of Jiang Wang!
But how could Marquis Wu An, whose cultivation had surpassed a whole realm, let him succeed? He was leaning on the chair, his hand still supporting his forehead, very deep: "I am thinking about a very important Taoist issue, you go back first, Ah
win."
Zhong Xuansheng stretched out his hand to dial him: "Take your hand away and show me."
Jiang Wang turned around with his chair and said in a low voice: "Really, go back."
Chongxuan Sheng stopped talking nonsense and directly activated Chongxuan's magical power.
Bang!
Poor Bowang Hou was kicked out of the study before he saw anything.
The door is closed tightly.
Only Jiang's voice came out: "Butler, see the guests off!"
…
…
The funeral held in Shuofang Bo's Mansion was completely a closed-door family ceremony.
No one was invited to participate in the worship, the white flags were not displayed outside, and no one was allowed to leave the house for joy or sorrow.
Jiang Wang and Chongxuan Sheng came to pay their respects, but of course there was no fanfare.
The two of them plus Fourteen, dressed in casual clothes, took a carriage together and arrived at Bao Mansion in a low-key manner.
After Fourteen became the wife of Bowang Hou, her status was unusual. Speaking of which, she shouldn't be following Chong Xuan Sheng everywhere like before, like a personal bodyguard...
But who cares?
How can the young couple be happy?
Shi Shi is not happy to be a housewife, and she can't take care of the business accounts, so she just likes to be with Zhong Xuan Sheng. Zhong Xuan Sheng also likes to have her next to her - yesterday, she was absent for just a moment, and she was killed by a certain manang.
My husband took the opportunity to beat me, right?
If Miss Yi was present, Mr. Jiang would have to think carefully about whatever he did.
To outsiders, Bao Zhongqing's death can at best be a pity, or lament the loyalty of Uncle Shuo Fang's family. The only ones who are truly sad and sad will always be the family members.
But when Jiang Wang actually walked into Bao's Mansion, he didn't feel any sadness at all. He felt more serious, as if he were a soldier in formation.
In their territory, Jiang Wang and Chong Xuansheng did not communicate much. The silk and gold had been delivered by servants yesterday, and they were just here to burn a stick of incense and go through the motions.
Under the guidance of the housekeeper of Bao Mansion, they walked straight to the mourning hall.
The commander of the Annihilation Army, Shuofang Bo Bao Yi, was already waiting outside the mourning hall.
Today, in terms of status alone, Wu'an Marquis Jiang Wang and Bowang Marquis Chongxuan Sheng are already on the same level as Bao Yi.
Except for those uncles, no one in the entire Bao family is qualified to receive him.
For the funeral of the eldest son Bao Zhongqing, neither the Bao family's uncles Changhua and Yingying returned to Linzi to attend.
So Bao Yi had to welcome him personally.
And because Jiang Wang and Chong Xuansheng are juniors after all, he doesn't have to go out to greet them, he can just stay here in the mourning hall. This is most appropriate.
"Wu'an Hou, Bowang Hou." Bao Yi was dressed in black today, with a solemn expression: "Zhongqing is lucky to have friends like you, and his life in this world has not been in vain."
From this attire, one might also be able to see his heart.
When Bob Zhao died, Uncle Shuo Fang personally wore mourning clothes. In a large family, for the death of the eldest son of the family heir, the rites are to wear mourning clothes. This is because the eldest son bears the "heirloom responsibility" of inheriting the ancestral temple and the country.
"The responsibility of the father is great, so it is said that "the father is the eldest son."
After Bao Bozhao's death, Bao Zhongqing became the only heir to the Bao family, the legitimate Crown Prince Shuofang Bo. However, Bao Yi did not wear sackcloth for him.
Of course, no one can criticize a father whose eldest son and second son died one after another.
Jiang Wang cupped his hands as a gift: "Uncle, please express my condolences. Although I don't have a close relationship with Brother Zhongqing, after all, we studied at Jixia Academy in the same period, so we can be regarded as classmates. Today I offer him a stick of incense.
I hope he doesn’t have too many regrets.”
Chongxuan Sheng is accustomed to being good at dancing, so of course he doesn't mind being friends with Bao Zhongqing. If interests permit, it doesn't matter if he bows to Bao Zhongqing on the spot or forms a secret friendship.
Jiang Wang was different. Even if Bao Zhongqing was dead, he was not willing to go along with the situation. Instead, he wanted to make it clear in front of Bao Yi that "we are not familiar with each other."
He is willing to come to pay homage today and offer incense to Bao Zhongqing. He is also willing to maintain the dignity of both parties. But he hopes that Shuofang Bo's residence will end here.
The "brotherhood" between him and Bao Zhongqing has been rumored to be outrageous. It is said that Wu Anhou once "charged the enemy seven times to rescue Zhongqing" on the Qixia battlefield. It is really unnecessary.
Bao Yi was not annoyed.
As Chongxuan Yunbo's lifespan was exhausted, Chongxuansheng came to the stage, and the grievances between the Bao family and the older generation of the Chongxuan family could be said to be over. On the Bao family, Bao Bozhao and Bao Zhongqing died one after another, and the relationship with the Chongxuan family
The fight among the younger generation has ended before it even begins.
It’s hard to say what the two families will fight for, having been political enemies for generations.
Chongxuan Chu Liang, who is qualified to arm-wrestle with him, has already established his own family.
There's no way he could have Bao Yi and Chong Xuan win against each other? Let's just say it and make people laugh.
Finding a suitable reason for Bao Zhongqing's death is one. Through the "deep love and righteousness" of Bao Zhongqing and Jiang Wang, in a way that neither showed weakness nor was relatively soft, the Bao family and the Chongxuan family were temporarily at peace.
, is the main consideration. As for the old grudge being difficult to resolve, let’s wait until the grandson grows up.
It is enough that Chongxuan Sheng came to pay homage today as Bowang Hou. It shows that the new Bowang Hou understands this matter and is willing to accept it.
Bao Zhongqing knew what he had done to Jiang Wang, or what he had tried to do. Jiang Wang was not willing to have a false relationship with a dead man, and he could understand the young man's temper.
Therefore, he just turned sideways and said, "Please come in. If you can come, I believe Zhongqing will be very happy if he knows someone from the bottom of the spring."
Never mention any friends again.
The mourning hall is not big.
The layout is very simple.
There were only clothes lying in the coffin - it is said that the body was also transformed by the poison given by Zhang Linchuan.
Bao Zhongqing's widow Miao Yuzhi sat kneeling next to her, her expression dull, like a clay sculpture. She was dressed in coarse linen white clothes, which gave her a bit of the coldness of snow.
Jiang Wang and Bao Yi talked for a while outside, and then she came to her senses, moved her eyes this way, and finally appeared a little brighter.
"Marquis Lao Wu'an, Marquis Bowang, and Mrs. Marquis Bowang are here to pay homage to their late husband." She lowered her head deeply, her voice was hoarse.
Jiang Wang didn't say anything, just returned the gift and went to burn incense in front of the soul.
The last time I saw Mrs. Bao was in front of the funeral hall of the old Marquis. At that time, I never thought that seeing her again would be at a funeral.
At that time, Miao Yuzhi was pregnant with the direct bloodline of the Bao family, and she was accompanied by the Prince Shuofang who treated her very tenderly. She was in a very relaxed state and was very comfortable in dealing with people and things.
But when I saw him again today, he was already shabby and haggard.
But apart from sighing, there really is nothing to say.
In this world, people are born and die every moment. If it hadn't happened around them, there wouldn't have been any trouble. They had never crossed paths before, and they probably never would in the future.
Jiang Wang, Chong Xuansheng, and Yi Shisi laid incense one after another, and they completed the memorial ceremony. Just as they were about to say goodbye and leave, a burst of children's cries suddenly sounded inside.
The wet nurse holding the baby hurriedly walked into the mourning hall and said to Miao Yuzhi repeatedly: "Madam, Madam, I don't know what's wrong with the young master. He has been crying. He has also drank the milk and gave him toys.
No matter what, I can’t coax him…”
Then he saluted Bao Yi in a panic.
Bao Yi just waved his hand.
The child in the nanny's arms was very healthy, and his cry was very loud. It sounded like he was very drunk, and the whole mourning hall was filled at once.
Jiang Wang and others who came to pay homage were at a loss.
Miao Yuzhi didn't care about etiquette and stood up directly to take the child and coaxed her softly: "What's wrong, what's wrong, my little baby~~Be good~Don't cry, don't cry~"
The extremely hoarse voice is extremely gentle at this moment, and the extremely haggard face is extremely gentle at this moment.
It's just that the little baby obviously doesn't understand the mother's hard work. It kicks its legs wildly and howls incessantly.
Even Bao Yi was a little anxious now and looked at the nanny sternly: "Besides spiritual vegetables, did you eat anything else today?"
The wet nurse was so frightened that she knelt down and tried her best to explain that she drank every sip of water according to the rules and that she would never do anything rash for the sake of the young master's food.
Jiang Wang glanced at the child curiously, and could vaguely see Bao Zhongqing's face between his eyebrows, but there was no pockmark on his face.
Strange to say.
The crying baby was kicking around and suddenly met Jiang Wang's eyes.
Then it actually became quiet.
He looked at Jiang Wang with his dark eyes, grinned again, and smiled softly.
Her chubby little face and innocent smile are so cute.
Chong Xuansheng was extremely surprised. He looked at Jiang Wang's face curiously, and for the first time he truly doubted his own aesthetics. Is this boy really good-looking? Is there any shady secret behind being on the Linzi beauty list?
Miao Yuzhi held the baby with a bright smile and glanced at Jiang Wang gratefully: "Jing'er seems to like Wu Anhou very much... Although he is very young, he also knows how to worship heroes."
Of course Jiang Wang didn't have any bad feelings towards a child, he just said a little embarrassedly: "Is this child called Bao Jing?"
Chong Xuan Sheng rolled his eyes.
"Bao Xuanjing." Miao Yuzhi said softly: "This is the name given to him by his grandfather. I hope he can have a clear mirror in his heart and be close to the wise and far away from the nefarious."
"Oh, Bao Xuanjing." Jiang Wang muttered, and felt that the name was indeed quite interesting. Master Bao was worthy of being Master Bao, and he also loved reading. He waved to the baby with a gentle smile: "Hello,
Little Xuanjing.”
The little baby struggled hard in its mother's arms, and its chubby little hands tried hard to reach Jiang Wang's face. The posture was quite like a killing claw gesture to the face, which made several people present laugh.
Jiang Wang extended his hand in a friendly manner for him to grab.
The chubby little hand grasped Jiang Wang's index finger.
The little Bao Xuanjing chuckled.
