Chapter 109 Chapter 109
Empress Cheng's mourning hall is located in a palace called Ciqing Palace behind the Jing'an Palace where the empress originally lived.

Those who have been here are all surprised, why is there a cold palace behind the palace where the queen lives?
But, in the end, no one dared to ask questions.

Hua Yanbai put his arms around his little brother and coaxed him in a low voice, but secretly glanced at the people around him.

Father Taifu was talking to people in a low voice, looking around, there were densely packed people, because of Taifu Hua, they were at the front, so not far ahead, the prince Their every move can be seen clearly.

Following the loud shout from the servant presiding over the funeral in the palace, everyone immediately stood up with their hands in suspense, bowing their heads in silent mourning.

Soon, the sorrow and joy reappeared, and Hua Yan shuddered suddenly.

This mourning is really sad, it makes people feel cold and mournful from the bottom of their hearts.

The funeral began, and the servants wailed every step of the way, and everyone followed suit.

Hua Yanbai just squatted down under the cover of the hem of her robe, anyway, she was not tall, she curled up there with her little brother in her arms, and no one really noticed.

Suddenly, there was a commotion from behind, and soon, the commotion became worse, and everyone turned their heads to look.

But it was Cheng Guo's uncle Cheng Zheng, dressed in black and brocade clothes, striding forward.

"Prince, get up." Coming to the coffin, passing through the princes kneeling on the ground, Cheng Zheng went straight to the side of the prince, and gave a low drink. His face was cold and serious, but his tone showed a hint of anger.

"Uncle?" The prince looked up at the visitor inexplicably and blankly.

"Is there no one in the Cheng family? Doesn't the prince know the queen's funeral rules?" Cheng Zheng asked in a deep voice as he swept across the princes present with his cold eyes.

"Uncle, everything is up to the emperor." The prince replied in a low voice, not sure if he was tired, his voice was very hoarse.

"Okay! Very good!" Cheng Zheng sneered, squinted at the prince, and then said, "Follow me to see the emperor."

Everyone watched them leave the mourning hall in bewilderment, not knowing where it came from?
It has been seven days since the mourning hall was placed here, did that Uncle Cheng Guo know about it?
Moreover, the emperor's decree was not made today, is it too late for him to find a place?
"Father." Hua Yanbai was thinking, rubbing his little brother's fat paws in his hands, when he suddenly saw someone's gaze flicking towards him, regaining consciousness, Hua Yanbai looked at the person beside him.

"A few days ago, Uncle Cheng Guo didn't show up?" Hua Yanbai asked in a low voice, pulling off Taifu's father's sleeve.

Hua Taifu shook his head, with a puzzled look on his face, "I don't know, I haven't seen him when the courtiers worshiped, and I don't know about other times."

Hua Yanbai sneered to himself, now even the Prince's own son is not at the funeral, it seems that Empress Cheng's funeral has been disturbed.

Speaking of which, as a woman, Empress Cheng, her life is really useless, so what if she becomes the mother of a country?
If the husband doesn't love her, and the son doesn't kiss her, even the mother's family who gave birth to her and raised her only treat her as a pawn. Before she dies, does she feel sad?

"Let's suspend the funeral, everything will wait for the emperor's will." The second prince and the older princes found several important officials, including Taifu Hua, and finally, it was decided.

Across the curtain, the women's relatives next door were also in a commotion. They sent someone to notify a few empresses, but it was not too much.

Hua Yanbai looked at the white curtain in the middle, the funeral of Empress Cheng was really shabby.

If you just look at it alone, Uncle Cheng Guo's behavior just now is true, but unfortunately, looking at it together before and after, it is weird everywhere.

Everyone endured the doubts and complications in their hearts, and stood still and waited.

Until noon, the emperor, dressed in plain clothes, walked into the funeral scene with five blessings under everyone's surprised eyes.

"The funeral continues. The funeral will be on time at [-]:[-] noon!" When the emperor stood still, the princes and courtiers hurriedly knelt down, and Wu Fu spoke loudly.

The servant who presided over the funeral heard the words and hurried on.

"My meow!" Hua Yanbai lowered his head, cursing inwardly.

She didn't think that Uncle Cheng Guo and the prince were taken down by the emperor in one fell swoop. If he could be so decisive and straightforward, the emperor would have done it 800 years ago, and he wouldn't have waited until now.

So, what the hell is going on now?

After all the procedures were completed, the emperor left with the five blessings, and the funeral team was already preparing to leave the palace.

"Brother, go home..." Xiao BuDian, who had been ignored by his brother for a long time, pouted and muttered with aggrieved expression.

"Xiao'er, be good, wait a minute, let's go home!" Hua Yanbai then withdrew his mind and coaxed in a low voice.

Humming, the little one arched to Hua Yanbai's neck, with a sleepy look on his little face.

"How about I hug Xiao'er?" Mrs. Hua noticed the situation of her children, said in a low voice, and was about to stretch out her hand.

No matter how young the youngest son was, it was very hard for the daughter to hold him all the time. The maids and servants were not allowed to accompany the funeral, so they had to take turns holding the child.

"Father, it's okay." Hua Yanbai shook his head. Although he was not tired, it was not a problem if he had time to spare.

After finishing speaking, Hua Yanbai also patted the back of the little brother to put him to sleep.

While walking slowly with the team, Hua Yanbai frowned while thinking.

Since Uncle Cheng Guo and the crown prince will not be taken down by the emperor, why didn't they go to the funeral?

And only Uncle Cheng Guo appeared in the Cheng family, what about the others?

Doesn't Cheng Zhixun, who guards the northern border, have to go home for the funeral?

A series of doubts popped up in Hua Yanbai's heart. She didn't know that the fourth prince was also wondering. He even found out one step earlier than Huayan Bai, and sent Ji Lin to investigate.

The imperial mausoleum is on the east side of the entire imperial city, on a mountain called Zifu Mountain. Because it is where the imperial mausoleum is located, ordinary people generally do not go to Zifu Mountain.

In front of the city gate, the princes and courtiers stopped, only the coffin bearers and the funeral servants left the city and went straight to Zifu Mountain.

When everyone returned to the gate of the palace, they received the order and went home.

Seeing this, the people in the city also dispersed. At this time, Hua Yanbai handed the little brother to his father, and then pulled his father by the sleeve and walked to his carriage.

At the same time, he was looking around, looking for his grandmother and gentle mother.

"Xu Wu, go find grandmother and mother." Soon, they found their own carriage, Xu Wu and Xiao Wuzi were waiting there, Hua Yanbai immediately gave orders.

Then, let Xiao Wuzi help Taifu's father into the carriage, and he was beside the carriage, vigilant.

"Master." The fifth son poured two cups of tea, gave one cup to Mrs. Hua, took the other cup, and handed it to his young master.

"Just now, has anyone come to look for Xu Wu?" Hua Yanbai glanced at the car, turned around, and asked in a low voice.

"Yes, but I don't know what they said?" Little Wu shook his head.

It turned out that Xu Wu was the person who pretended to be him before, and now, he can finally come back to serve his young master again.

"En." Hua Yanbai breathed a sigh of relief.

"Grandmother, mother!" Without waiting too long, I saw Mrs. Hua walking over supported by Mrs. Hua and Xu Wu.

However, their complexions are not very good.

"Go back to the mansion first!" Hua Yanbai stepped forward to meet her, and before she could speak, Mrs. Hua said in a deep voice.
