Chapter 1753 Feng Clan: Mao Zhongcai's Descendants
"It doesn't matter."
Mao Linye stretched out his big palm and took Feng Jiuer's little hand.
Feng Jiuer was stunned and immediately pulled her hand back from his palm.
"boss."
Her head was so low that it almost touched her chest, "I...you..." "Sit down, it won't affect you!"
Mao Linye rubbed her shoulders and said.
Feng Jiuer took a deep breath, responded with the word "hmm", and sat down with her legs bent.
She calmed down, raised her eyes to look at Mao Linye, and asked: "Boss, can I... read the medical book?"
"Don't worry, I won't make any noise to affect you."
"good."
Mao Linye took another piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, and poured himself a cup of tea.
Feng Jiuer said nothing more, stood up and turned around.
She retrieved the medical book she read yesterday and sat down on the blanket next to Mao Linye.
Mao Linye took a sip of tea and looked into the palace.
"Go on."
He said calmly.
"boss."
Song Shiniang frowned.
Mao Linye didn't even look at her, and she didn't say anything else.
Feng Jiuer didn't look at anyone. She sat down and read without making any sound, just like a transparent person.
But, despite this, her entry was still unignorable to those present.
"boss."
A man stood up and raised his hands.
"There are still two quarters of an hour before the body of the former city lord is sparkled. Do you want to consider slowing down?"
"No."
Mao Linye waved his hand, "This is what the monk meant, isn't it?"
"But, the children of the original city lord..." The man frowned.
"Talk about other things."
Mao Linye didn't want to continue this topic.
"boss."
The other man stood up and cupped his hands.
"explain."
Mao Linye raised his eyes and glanced at him.
The man held up his hand again and said: "Boss, we have met the four generals of Mao's Army in private."
"It's a pity that they don't have the heart to be sincere at the moment."
"Hu Biao."
Mao Linye looked at the sturdy man with a beard.
"Is there anything settled about the token?"
Hu Biao stood up, cupped his hands and said: "City Lord, no."
"The villain has checked the entire town, and there is no news at all."
"Have you really checked everything?"
Mao Linye rubbed his eyebrows.
"Except..." Hu Biao was a little embarrassed.
"explain!"
Mao Linye ordered.
Hu Biao raised his hand again and said: "As the boss knows, the people from Yicheng, Yicheng, Liuchuan City and Xiangcheng are still in Fenggang Town."
"They are now stationed in the open space not far from the city gate. Except for that place, they have searched all other places."
"boss."
Song Shiniang also stood up, "You can't search that place."
When Song Shiniang saw that Mao Linye was silent, she continued: "General Cai died in his home, and the news will be sent back soon."
"If we can't produce evidence, we will become the criminals who killed the imperial officials."
"Now that the original city lord is dead, people with good intentions are spreading rumors everywhere, saying that the boss killed the original city lord. We can say that there are internal and external troubles."
"If we offend the other cities again, if we are defeated..." "Shi Niang is right."
The man sitting next to her said.
"boss."
He also cupped his hands, "In my opinion, the most important thing for us at this stage is to appease the descendants of the original city lord."
"As long as they all support the boss as the city lord, I don't think Mao Jiabing will have any objections."
"With Mao's army in order, we still have a chance to win against foreign enemies."
"And Liuchuan City, Yicheng, Yicheng and Xiangcheng are actually also afraid of that unknown army."
"They definitely don't want Pingyuan City to end up like Li City."
"Regarding the accidental death of General Cai, the boss has written to the court to explain the reason. When they send someone to investigate, they don't know when it will happen."
"It won't be too late to discuss the matter by then. Anyway, we didn't kill the person."
The man clarified his words and sat down, and the others also sat down.
Mao Linye didn't speak, everyone looked at him.
After a while, someone knocked on the door of the hall again.
"boss."
"Enter."
Mao Linye threw out a word.
The man opened the door and walked in.
"Boss, the former city lord's family has arrived. Should you invite them in, or..." "I'll go out personally."
Mao Linye responded softly.
Mao Linye led a group of people out of the east chamber and went to the gate of the mansion.
Everyone waited for about half a stick of incense before Mao Zhongcai's descendants arrived.
There were dozens of people arriving, and the battle was quite large.
At the head were three men, two of whom looked somewhat similar to Mao Zhongcai, and the other who was taller and more handsome.
As soon as the horse stopped, the three men immediately got off the horse.
The people guarding Mao Linye wanted to move forward to block him.
Mao Linye waved his hand and motioned for them to leave.
The guards looked at him in confusion, and finally dispersed.
"Mao Linye, are you still human?"
"Mao Linye, how dare you kill my father?"
"Mao Linye, what exactly did you do to my father?"
The three people walking forward were Mao Zhongcai's son-in-law Liao Mushan, his eldest son Mao Yi, and Mao Gang.
The three of them came directly to him before stopping.
Mao Linye stood there, motionless.
"I was not the one who killed your father. The enemy is about to attack. If you don't believe it, this is also a fact!"
"Come in, there's still a quarter of an hour left before his cremation. It's still too late."
Mao Linye waved his hand, turned around, and walked inside.
Mao Zhongcai's two sons turned their heads together and looked at Liao Mushan.
At this time, Mao Zhongcai's daughter and two wives stumbled over.
"Mushan, how are you?
How is my dad doing now?"
Liao Mushan turned around and supported his wife. The two young masters from the Mao family also turned around and supported their mothers.
"Go first and see the last side of your father-in-law."
Liao Mushan looked at the Mao family mansion.
The rest of the people didn't say anything. As soon as he left, they followed him in.
Dozens of people walked into the Mao family mansion in a furious manner.
Feng Jiuer followed Mao Linye and walked a long way around the main hall.
The people who were mourning in the main hall just now are now in the backyard.
In the middle of the backyard, a thick wooden frame was built, with a corpse wearing white clothes on it.
All around, there were a group of mourners, all wearing white clothes and white flowers on their heads.
In the middle, next to the corpse, there are three monks performing rituals.
As soon as Mao Zhongcai's family arrived, the mourners surrounding him all stood up and made way for them.
The sound of crying was louder than before, but only the person involved knew how much sincerity and how much was false.
Finally, the monk said that the time was up, and the people hugged each other and left.
A man holding a burning stick walked beside the body.
In the yard, the mournful crying became more intense.
After a while, all the wood was ignited, and in everyone's eyes, there was only a blazing fire.
