When Li Xin first came to this world, he inherited the memory of a young man and his full of anger, and at that time, he set two goals for himself in the dilapidated log cabin where he sold charcoal.

The first thing is to live well in this world.

The second thing is to knock the huge Pingnan Hou Mansion into dust if possible.

In the past, Li Xin thought that he had achieved the first goal, and then slowly worked towards the second goal.

A few years have passed, and the original anger has worn off a lot, Li Shen died in front of his eyes, and his second goal was finally completely completed, but if you think about it carefully, the first goal is still shaky.

Next, it is to let yourself and the people around you live well in this complex and difficult court!

Chen Ju squatted on the ground, and after confirming that Li Shen was out of breath, he sighed deeply, got up and knelt down in front of the portrait of the Son of Heaven in Chengde, bowed to the ground and said, "Your Majesty, Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan, who you have in mind, go to see you." ”

"The resentment in your heart, just disperse..."

Li Xin was now behind Chen Ju, and after being silent for a while, he said slowly: "Grand Duke, shall I take him down?" ”

Chen Ju got up, shook his head at Li Xin, and said, "No, he will be buried next to Zhaoling." ”

"Before his death, the first emperor ordered that if the Marquis of Pingnan died in the capital one day, his body would be buried on a small hillside near Zhaoling, and the tomb had been dug three years ago, just waiting for the Marquis of Pingnan to come."

Li was silent in confidence.

That former Saint Son of Heaven, before his death, his obsession with Li Shen was really terrifying.

"This is, to accompany the burial of the emperor's mausoleum?"

If the emperor has a courtier he likes very much, he will let him be buried near his imperial mausoleum, such as the champion marquis, who is buried near Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Chen Ju shook his head slowly and said, "The hall is nameless, and the tomb has no monument." ”

The meaning of this sentence is that Li Shen can be buried near the emperor's mausoleum, but there is no name, no tombstone, and no one will worship him, and the real "Pingnan Hou" has died and been buried three years ago, so no matter how many years later, others will not know who is buried here.

This can be regarded as a revenge left by the emperor of Chengde to Li Shen.

Li Xin nodded and said, "Since this is the case, I will hand it over to the Grand Duke." ”

Chen Ju glanced up at Li Xin, then sighed slightly, and said: "Our family has heard a little about your affairs, and we know that you are angry with Pingnanhou in your heart, but no matter what, the blood in your body will not be wrong." ”

"He's always your biological father."

"No matter how big the grudge is, he is dead now, the dead are great, and the resentment in your heart should also be dispersed."

Li Xin bowed his head slightly and said, "What the Grand Duke said is true." ”

Chen Ju sighed, pointed to Li Shen on the ground, and said, "Our family is old, and we can't carry him, so I bother Li Shangshu to help carry him up and carry him to the small hill next to him." ”

Li Xin took a deep breath, and finally did not refuse, squatted down, carried Li Shen's corpse, followed behind the old eunuch Chen Ju, and slowly walked towards an inconspicuous hillside next to the emperor's tomb.

Although Zhaoling is not very high, but it is also a small mountain, carrying a person up and down the mountain, it is still quite hard, fortunately, after a few years of boxing, Li Xin's body is still quite strong, and he carried Li Shen on his back and walked to this small hill that is much lower than Zhaoling.

At the top of the hillside, a grave pit had been dug up, and under the leadership of Chen Ju, they walked all the way to the depths of the tomb, where there was a coffin that had been prepared for a long time.

Chen Ju pointed to the coffin and said slowly, "Li Shangshu put him inside." ”

Li Xin also saw sweat on his forehead at this time, and he put Li Shen into the coffin with some difficulty, and wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve.

There is a burial chamber and a coffin, although there is no funeral, but the specifications of this burial are already better than that of ordinary officials, I don't know how many times.

Chen Ju and Li Xin closed the coffin together.

Then the big eunuch glanced at the coffin and sighed: "Tomorrow, our family will let people come to close the tomb, and then close the soil, from today onwards, Marquis Li, you will be here forever with Your Majesty." ”

Speaking of this, Chen Ju laughed at himself.

"Marquis Li has committed such a big sin, Your Majesty can still let you lie here, and our family has worked hard all their lives, but they will never be qualified to be buried near the emperor's tomb, it's ridiculous."

Li Xin, who was on the side, silently listened to Chen Ju's words, and said, "Don't close the coffin first, the grand duke." ”

"Lee... The general also has a wife in my house, I will send her here tomorrow, if she wants to live, she can go wherever she likes, or keep the grave for Li Shen here, let her stay here. ”

"If she doesn't want to live, the eldest duke will bury her with Li Shen, and in short, she will be given a place to go."

Chen Ju sighed: "Li Shangshu is still so resentful? ”

"The Grand Duke misunderstood, and there is not much anger in Li Xin's heart."

The Marquis of Jing'an said slowly: "Li Shen's wife, if it is a mortal situation in the capital, I sent her here, but gave her a little way to live, even if she doesn't want to live, she can be buried with her husband." ”

"She lost her son first and then her husband, and for her, this should be the best ending."

Chen Ju nodded silently and sighed.

"Then Li Shangshu will send her over."

The two of them walked out of this very inconspicuous tomb one after the other, Li Xingang wanted to say something more to Chen Ju, and suddenly a familiar figure staggered out of the stairs and ran to Li Xin's door, and then knelt down in front of Li Xin.

He first kowtowed to Chen Ju and called "godfather", then turned his head to look at Li Xin, panting heavily.

"Master Hou, His Royal Highness King Qin has arrived!"

"The Qin Palace's mansion has just been mourned, and rumors are spreading in the capital, Your Majesty has ordered you to return to the palace immediately to discuss matters!"

Hearing this, Li Xin felt a little emotional.

The big fat man, although he was very afraid of death, but when it was time for him to die, he finally did not coax and kept his promise.

Li Xin glanced back at Chen Ju, bowed his head and said, "Grand Duke, you heard everything." ”

The white-haired old eunuch Chen Ju nodded a little desolately, shook his head and said, "That's the eldest son of the first emperor......"

Li Xin arched his hand at Chen Ju and said in a deep voice: "Grand Duke, Your Majesty has called me back to Beijing to deal with things, then I will go back, and the affairs of Zhaoling will be handed over to Grand Duke." ”

"If the Grand Duke is free in the past two days, don't forget to go to the palace, otherwise if something happens in the capital, it may not be just His Royal Highness King Qin......"

Chen Ju nodded, and then stretched out his hand to call his son Dong Cheng over.

"Xiao Chengzi, don't be in a hurry to leave, you can tell me the situation in the capital."

Li Xin walked a few steps to the side very sensibly, and said with a smile: "Father and son Xian are free, I'll wait over there for a while." ”

After speaking, he took a few steps to the side, looked in the direction of the capital, and muttered to himself.

"The boss is gone, I don't know when the third and fourth are unlucky......"
