Bai Qingyan's already fair face was even more frighteningly white today, her brows were haggard, but her eyes were still determined.
"I would like to thank Mr. Lu for rescuing the siege in front of the Duke's Mansion that day. I will definitely come to pay my respects after the important events of the Bai family are over." Mrs. Dong said softly.
"Madam, you have killed Yuanpeng! It's just a coincidence! Madam, don't worry." Lu Yuanpeng was very polite today.
It was getting brighter at the beginning, and the heavy snow gradually stopped.
Just when the people were about to freeze, they vaguely heard the sound of horse hooves in the white mist.
Soon, a four-horse carriage with lights hanging at the four corners came slowly, escorted by guards holding the flag of King Xin on both sides.
The second lady Liu's legs went weak. Thanks to Bai Jinxiu's quick eyesight and quick help, she held Liu's hand with all her strength and burst into tears.
Dong took a deep breath and subconsciously held Bai Qingyan's hand tightly.
King Xin's guard saw the lanterns at the gate of the south city shining brightly from afar. He quickly rode to the south gate to save a group of people. He probably understood what was going on and hurried back to the carriage. He lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty, the widow of the Bai family and
The people of the capital are all at the south gate..."
Upon hearing this, King Xin, who was holding Meiji in his arms, lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked towards the south gate. He saw the bustling lights and bright lights. He immediately felt guilty and retreated into the carriage, with a layer of sweat on his hands.
This time he only brought back the bodies of Duke Bai Weiting, Bai Weiting's fifth son Bai Qichuan, and the sixth and seventh sons of the Bai family. In order to humiliate the Bai family and show it to the courtiers, King Xin deliberately gave them the most powerful weapon.
A lowly coffin.
King Xin wiped his palms with a handkerchief, stared at Pixiu's bronze tripod incense burner, pondered for a moment with a sullen face, and said, "I will soon say that my king is seriously injured and it is not appropriate to get off the carriage and go directly to the city!"
"Yes, I understand!" King Xin's guard nodded.
Mei Ji in the carriage saw King Xin's expression gloomy, she smiled and took out the wine that was warm on the fire, poured a glass and brought it to King Xin's lips: "All the men in the Bai family are dead, they are just a group of women.
Why should the prince care?"
It was the charming beauty who smiled at him like a flower. King Xin narrowed his eyes, and the uneasiness in his heart dissipated, and he drank from the glass of wine with Mei Ji's white hands.
Yes, all the men in the Bai family are dead, what kind of drama can a group of female prostitutes make?
Besides, it was his father who could not tolerate the Bai family. As the old saying goes, if a king wants his subjects to die, they will have to die. The Bai family deserved their death. What is so scary about him?!
Thinking of this, King Xin leaned comfortably on the soft pillow and played with the beauty's small white jade-like hands.
The carriage staggered to the city gate. Mrs. Dong and everyone in the Bai family saluted King Xin's carriage: "I have seen King Xin."
"Ahem, cough..." King Xin coughed from the carriage, "I have tried my best, but I can only bring the Duke, General Bai Qichuan, Liu Lang and Shi Qi Lang back! I am seriously injured and inconvenienced.
Get off the car, cough cough cough cough! Let the soldiers take the Duke and the others back to the Duke's mansion!"
After saying that, the carriage started to move.
Therefore, none of Dong’s husband and son came back. Dong’s figure was shaking, and she hurriedly supported her: “Mother!”
Looking at Ms. Dong who was so shocked that she couldn't recover from the shock, Bai Qingyan's heart ached.
The second wife Liu’s husband and two biological sons have not come back either!
When Madam Liu heard this, she stumbled backwards. If Bai Jinxiu hadn't been quick to catch her, she might have fallen down. Madam Liu burst into tears, but she seemed to be dumbfounded and couldn't speak.
Her husband and son were actually... no bones left?!
"Seventeen! My little Seventeen!" The fourth lady, Wang, could no longer restrain herself and stumbled towards the smallest coffin at the back. It snowed heavily all night and the road was slippery. Wang fell down twice and got up.
He stumbled over and finally hugged the small coffin covered with snow, feeling heartbroken.
"Liu Lang... Mom is here! Mom is here to take you home!" The third lady, Mrs. Li, choked with sobs, was supported by Bai Jintong and stepped forward. She wanted to touch her son's cold coffin and support her son's coffin to go home.
The fifth wife, Mrs. Qi, who had a big belly, seemed to be holding her own. She wanted to quickly go to her husband's coffin, but she restrained her emotions, pressed her palm hard on her abdomen, and choked with tears: "Sister-in-law...
…Go back first!”
Bai Jinzhi, who was injured, was supported by his personal maid and walked towards the coffin of his brother Bai Qingming.
Dong clenched his fist tightly. Although he was filled with hatred, he still had to say thank you: "Thank you so much, Your Majesty."
Bai Qingyan clenched her fists tightly. Just like in the previous life, only her grandfather, fifth uncle, Ming brother and Xiao Qi came back. I believe that Wang was seriously injured...
She watched the wheels turning and swaying as the luxurious carriage passed in front of her. She smelled the faint smell of wine and sandalwood coming from the window. She straightened up and raised her sharp eyes. The curtain of the carriage was lifted by the cold wind, and she clearly understood
He saw a beauty as delicate as a peony in the car, leaning in the arms of the "seriously injured" Liang Wang, with disheveled clothes.
Xiao Rongyan, who stood outside the crowd with a fox fur coat on his back, had always had a good ear. He twitched his ears and heard the coquettish voice of a woman in the exquisite carriage. His deep eyes became colder and colder, and he turned to look at the guards guarding him...
The guard understood, nodded and left in a hurry.
Bai Qingyan turned to look at the soldiers carrying the coffin. None of them were from the Bai family army, they were all... soldiers under King Xin's command. She tightly held the hand hidden in her sleeve.
King Xin's soldiers put down the coffins, followed King Xin's carriage into the city, and placed the four coffins outside the city gate.
Ms. Dong tried her best to maintain her dignity and composure without breaking down and crying!
She knelt down with the female members of the Bai family and bowed with great ceremony: "Ms. Bai Dong, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Bai family, together with the female members of the Bai family, respectfully welcome my father and I, the heroes of the Bai family, home!"
Bai Qingyan knelt down with tears in her eyes and kowtowed heavily.
The people also knelt down and cried, shouting for the Lord in pain. The continuous crying echoed through the sky in this dark cloud-covered morning.
Mrs. Dong stood up with the support of Grandma Qin, stood at the front of her grandfather's coffin, gritted her teeth, and shouted with tears in her eyes: "Carry the coffin! Throw money! Lead the way!"
The servants of the Bai family immediately stepped forward and stood around the four coffins to lift up the poles for carrying the coffins. Dong Qingyue was a rough man. With red eyes, he threw away the reins that he had been holding in his hands and stepped forward to personally hold the coffins on his shoulders. The sound was like a bell.
Shouted: "Lift the coffin!"
"Lift the coffin!"
As the voices followed, the cries of the people became more and more heartbreaking.
No one in the official position is willing to carry someone else's coffin, not even his own family members!
But Dong Qingyue is different. He is also a soldier under the Duke of the Kingdom, and the blood in his heart has not died out.
Bai Qingyan took the paper money, took a deep look at the four coffins, stood alone in the front, and threw the paper money high...
Bai Jinxiu followed Bai Qingyan and personally took the paper money to spread money and lead the way for the Bai family's heroes.
