The short-lived ghost of the Xie family has lived a long life

Chapter 754
Zhu Qing and the others worked hard all night without touching the ground, checking all the temples in Sijiu City.

Without exception, it is the last bell that cannot be rung.

For the sake of safety, Pei Xiao dragged Xie Zhifei and went out of the city in person the next day.

After a secret investigation, it was those four words again: without exception.

Back at the Yamen, Mr. Pei ordered Huang Qi to make a cup of tea, closed the doors and windows, and began racking his brains to write a memorial.

After holding it in all morning, he finally managed to get out [-] words. Master Pei said to Huang Qi: I have never been so tired after holding in my feces.

After handing over the book, Pei Xiao waited for the new emperor to summon him.

After waiting for three days, no ghost in the palace showed up. Only then did Pei Xiao realize that what Huairen said was not alarmist.

The new emperor didn't even read his memorial. He really loved the house and the bird and hated the rest.

Master Xiao Pei was actually wrong.

His book was on the imperial record, but the new emperor didn't have time to read it.
The late emperor's coffin will be buried in the imperial mausoleum in a few days. Both civil and military officials inside and outside the palace are busy with this important matter, for fear that something will go wrong.

The interrogation in the Jinyiwei Mansion was still going on. Lin Hai and Lin Tao surrendered and bit out a few people casually.

These few people led out a series of people, and Jinyiwei's cell was overcrowded.

The boss, Zhao Wentu, was tortured until he could breathe, but he still insisted that there was no instigator behind it. He just saw it with his own eyes when the bell didn't ring.

Feng Changxiu couldn't figure out the new emperor's temperament, so he couldn't bear to kill anyone, so he vented his anger on Cai Si, Fusi of Beizhen.

Officials crushed people to death.

Cai Si mentally brought up all the eighteen generations of Feng family's ancestors and scolded them, but his face was still submissive and full of smiles.

At night, someone came to Cai Mansion uninvited.

The person who came was none other than Xie Zhifei.

Xie Zhifei said nothing and took out a copy of Lord Pei's memorial from his pocket.

Cai Si took it and looked down, his white face filled with fear.

Even though he died seventeen or eight times, he never imagined that the bell in the Zhongting Pavilion really couldn't ring that day.

After a long time, he looked up at Xie Zhifei and whispered: "Why are you helping me, Third Master?"

"Because Fourth Master also helped me once, and also because..."

Xie Zhifei's peach-blossom eyes raised slightly: "It's really not easy for Fourth Master to stay low and humble under Lord Feng these years."

These words simply touched Cai Si's heart.

Jinyiwei is, to put it bluntly, a small court.

The superior person suppresses and steps on the inferior person to prevent him from seeking power and usurping the throne;
The inferior tried his best to climb up by stepping on the corpse of the superior;

No one is right or wrong, only whose heart is more vicious and whose hands are crueler.

There are two generals under Feng Changxiu, one is Cai Si, and the other is Yang Yijie, the Fusi of Jinyi Weinan Town.

Yang Yijie is from the King of Han.

The fall of the King of Han means that Yang Yijie's official career has come to an end, and liquidation will be inevitable sooner or later.

Feng Changxiu was afraid that he would stand out, so he took out his anger on him in a different way.

Now with the news about Third Master...

Cai Si suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and put his hands on his knees, "How do you want me to repay Third Master for this?"

"That's what I said."

However, Xie Zhifei had a gentle smile on his face, "I can see Fourth Master walking at the front in all his glory, and I feel very happy."

Cai Si looked at the young man in front of him and was silent for a moment.

This dandy in the eyes of the world can obviously do whatever he wants with the help of His Highness the Crown Prince, but he is extremely humble and powerful.

"The Fourth Master and the Fourth Master are separated."

He smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits: "Zhifei, I should call you Fourth Brother from now on."

"Fourth brother!" Xie Zhifei had an innocent smile on his face.

Passing the news to Cai Si, this was the result after he considered it for several days.Feng Changxiu belonged to the late emperor. Although the new emperor would use him, he would not be used for long. He was just taking care of the fact that the former emperor's bones were still fresh.

Since the position of commander-in-chief of Jinyiwei will be replaced sooner or later, why can't it be replaced by Cai Si?
Cai Si and he have known each other for many years, and their relationship has become very good, but the way to use money is still a little less interesting.

Now that I have given him such a great favor, the relationship between the two of them will be completely different from before.

Don’t you want to repay something?
Think beautiful!
For Yan Sanhe, he wanted to do more.

……

The next day, noon.

A secret letter from Cai Si, the Fusi of Jin Yiwei North Town, was quietly delivered to the new emperor's personal chamberlain.

While the chamberlain was cleaning the desk for the new emperor, he placed the secret letter on top of the memorial and pressed it lightly with a paperweight.

Two days later, a huge golden nanmuzi palace was carried out from the palace.

The royal family members, civil and military officials, monks and Taoist priests followed him in a mighty manner until the late emperor's Zi Palace was sent thirty miles outside the city gate.

Then, Zi Gong was carried into the carriage and went straight to the imperial mausoleum.

The journey to the imperial mausoleum was extremely smooth. Not only did there not be any "clicking" noise, there was not even a bump. This made all the mourners secretly sigh with relief.

As Zi Gong was carried into the imperial mausoleum, the life of Yonghe Emperor Zhao Ji truly settled.

……

The second day after the funeral of the late emperor was the Qingming Festival.

It is necessary to worship ancestors during the Qingming Festival.

In fact, ancestor worship at high gates in the capital is usually held a few days in advance.

The Xie family's ancestral tomb is far away in Anhui. A few years ago, Xie Daozhi took his three sons back there and spent money to repair the ancestral tomb.

The capital is more than half a month away from Anhui, so every year before the Qingming Festival, the Xie family worships their ancestors in the ancestral hall.

This year, due to the collapse of the mountains, Xie Daozhi was too busy and his youngest son was missing all day, so he opened an ancestral hall to worship his ancestors on the Qingming Festival.

When the auspicious time came, I took my three sons to light incense, burn paper, and kowtow to worship.

Third Master Xie paid homage to the ancestors of the Xie family, but what he was thinking about was the Zheng family.

It’s another year, and it’s time to go to the mountains to see them.

This year, he and Bu Liu made an appointment to meet at the foot of the mountain in the afternoon and then go up the mountain to worship together.

Do you want to take Yan Sanhe with you?

It's best to take it with you.

Let Grandpa see that the child he protected with all his life has now grown so big.

What reason could you find to take her with you?
Or should we do like last time, ignore Sanqi 21 and take the person away first?
On the other end of Bu Liu, what excuse should I find to stall him?
If you've paid your respects to the Zheng family, should you take the opportunity to visit Shen Duruo's grave?

It seems like I’m not good at it, so I have no excuse!
"The third child, the third child..."

"what?"

Xie Zhifei suddenly realized that he was still kowtowing and quickly got up from the futon.

Xie Daozhi looked at his youngest son's thin face and was about to say some kind words and care, but he didn't want to get ahead of his younger son.

"Dad, there's something urgent at my office, so I'll leave first."

Xie Daozhi looked at his hurried back and turned to look at his eldest son.

The eldest son looked apologetic, "Father, I also have something to leave first. My mother-in-law is the first Qingming Festival..."

"Go!"

Xie Dao expressed his fatherly love, and his eyes fell on his second son, "You are not allowed to go anywhere today, just stay at home."

Xie Buhuo smiled slightly.

"My son originally planned to accompany his father and ancestors."
