Shen Qingjia brought Zhou Nan back to the capital.

Along the way, her spirit was very low, and Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen did not dare to disturb her.

And behind them, Chu You continued to follow.

When he arrived at the capital, he was stopped by Zhang Tian who came in a hurry: "Your Majesty, you can't go to the capital. The soldiers are still waiting for you to return!"

Chu You looked serious, looked at Zhang Tian, ​​and said solemnly: "I won't go back."

"What!" Zhang Tian said in shock.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis is really angry about this. If you don't go back..."

"It's not important!" Chu You didn't care about what his father thought and whether he would be angry. He just wanted to follow Qingjia and spend the rest of his life with her. "

"Your Majesty! Don't act out of anger!"

Chu You said, "I'm not acting on impulse. I really don't plan to go back. Let the generals choose someone else to follow me. Anyway, I have many sons."

"Prince? Are you going to... give up your identity?" Zhang Tianman was in disbelief, "Prince, no, among the many young masters of the Marquis, which one can compare to you? Are you going to give up like this?"

"Yes!" Chu You gave an affirmative answer.

He pushed Zhang Tian away with firm eyes and walked towards the city gate.

Zhang Tian looked at that decisive figure, let out a long sigh, and then followed him.

But Chu You said: "You don't have to follow me, go back and earn your bright future."

"No! I belong to the Crown Prince. I will naturally follow the Crown Prince wherever he goes." Zhang Tian said firmly.

Chu You chuckled lightly and patted Zhang Tian's arm, feeling somewhat relieved.

The master and servant entered the capital together. Because there had been constant disputes recently, the guards at the gate of the city were very strict.

Chu You and Zhang Tian had to disguise themselves and make fake road signs before they managed to sneak into the capital.

Entering this city where he once grew up, Zhang Tian couldn't help but sigh: "I'll miss it a little if I don't come back for a few months."

Chu You also had some feelings, but the cool days of galloping on horseback had faded away, and when he came back, things had changed.

"Your Majesty, let's find a place to stay quickly."

Chu You hummed and headed off in the right direction. Zhang Tian followed immediately without asking any questions.

Halfway there, Zhang Tian knew that this was the direction of the Shen family.

It seems that Miss Shen's position in the prince's heart is still very important.

Chu You found a small house to live near Shen's house so that he could observe the affairs of the Shen family.

……

Since Shen Qingjia returned to the house, she began to stay at home.

When her relatives and friends learned that she was back, they all wanted to come and see her, but she was not in the mood to meet people, so they declined one by one, which made people worried.

Mrs. Shen couldn't bear to see her daughter like this, but what could she do? If it can be comforted, it has been comforted. I can only wait for my daughter to figure it out on her own.

As soon as Mr. Shen came back, he mentioned the funeral for Zhou Nan, but Shen Qingjia never voted. So, the coffin was left at home for three days, which was inevitably a bit taboo.

Moreover, the coffin was still placed in Shen Qingjia's yard. He was also afraid that his daughter would have something to think about.

Mr. Shen knows that his daughter cannot bear it, but people have to get over this hurdle and move on.

On this day, Mr. Shen went to Shen Qingjia's yard again to talk about this matter.

Shen Qingjia was sitting next to the coffin and talking to Zhou Nan. She had been in this state for many days.

She told Zhou Nan about herself, about the past, and talked about a lot of lovesickness and love. She didn't know that she had so many things to say, and she couldn't finish them.

Master Shen couldn't help but shake his head when he saw her like this.

"Jia'er, after death, people should be buried in peace. You can't keep Zhou Nan's body here forever, right?" Shen Qingjia's eyes hurt when he heard this.

"Jia'er, people have to look forward!"

Mr. and Mrs. Shen have said this to their daughter many times, but she seems not to have listened.

Mr. Shen was about to say something serious: "Jia'er, you can't be too selfish. You have to ask Zhou Nan to leave with dignity and be buried properly. Only then can his soul rest in peace and be reincarnated. You can't keep his soul alive forever." Floating in the world, right?"

Mr. Shen is not too superstitious, but there are many taboos about death. If the deceased is not buried early, the deceased will not be able to rest in peace.

"Reincarnation... It would be great if there was reincarnation in the world."

Shen Qingjia didn't believe this at all. Once a person dies, he can never come back. Even if he is reincarnated, he will not be the Zhou Nan who has been following him.

However, they were all right, they couldn't be so selfish and they should let go.

"Dad, I understand."

When Mr. Shen heard Shen Qingjia relent, he immediately said, "Then I will start organizing the funeral?"

Shen Qingjia said a tired 'hmm'.

Mr. Shen breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing his daughter like this made him feel inexplicably uncomfortable. In the past, he always felt that his daughter had no definite opinions and loved each other. But now, he feels that it is good for her to have no definite opinions. At least she will not be so nervous for one person. .

Mr. Shen hurriedly retreated. He had the last moment, so he should leave it to Shen Qingjia. He knew that his daughter was reluctant to leave her.

Shen Qingjia stood up and came to the coffin. The coffin had not been closed, and Zhou Nan's face could still be seen clearly. Shen Qingjia stared at it for a while and asked, "Do you want to leave too?"

right.

Shen Qingjia closed her eyes, and a tear fell from the corner of her eye, falling on Zhou Nan's face.

...........
White cloths were suddenly hung all over the Shen family's yard, and people passing by suddenly became curious.

"What's going on? What happened to the Shen family? Who died?"

"I do not know?"

Because of Li Sheng's ascension to the throne, the Shen family's status suddenly rose and became the object of many people's attention. The sudden abnormality inevitably made people curious and talked about it privately.

"I have been seeing the Shen family staying behind closed doors in the past few days. Could it be that someone in the house is seriously ill?"

"But there shouldn't be any news about this, right?"

"Go and inquire, you have to move around."

Someone sent someone to inquire about it, only to learn that it was Mr. Shen's newly adopted son who passed away. Hearing that this adopted son was just a guard in the family, some people couldn't help but feel strange when they heard the news.

"He's just a bodyguard. Is there any need to hold a funeral for him? It's just a taboo."

It is taboo to have many things in vain. Although this matter can be used to make friends with the Shen family, due to the low status of the deceased, many people only sent some gifts and expressed condolences and did not take it seriously.

Just inside the palace.

Li Sheng felt a little sad when he learned that Zhou Nan was dead.

Back in the Shen family, if Zhou Nan hadn't fought tooth and nail to protect him, he would have died long ago. How could he have ascended the throne and become emperor?
Although Li Sheng was young, he also knew how to repay kindness. He immediately sent people to issue an imperial edict to give Zhou Nan the title of General Dingyuan.

Many people were shocked by this imperial edict.

Not just a guard? Why is the emperor also interested?

No, it’s impossible for the Shen family to accept an adopted son for no reason?

Since he is the adopted son, he is nominally the emperor's uncle.

Seeing how concerned Mr. Shen is, he might not be a guard, but he might be a parent or child!

When these distinguished people thought about this, they began to come to the Shen family to express their condolences to show their respect.
