"Seal the coffin——"

Su Ciyue, who was dressed in a crimson official robe and a black veil on her arm, shouted loudly, and the extremely complicated agarwood lacquered gold coffin with a hundred beasts and a hundred herbs slowly closed, and seven half-arm-long soul-sealing nails were nailed in one by one by the servants.

"bang bang bang"

Along with the heavy knocking sounds, the mourning hall was suddenly filled with deafening cries.

"Shuang'er, my daughter!"

Madam Lu screamed at the top of her lungs, struggled to break free from Duke Lu's arms, staggered and fell on the mat, looking hatefully at the gradually closing coffin.

Duke Lu lowered his eyes in sorrow, leaned over and helped his wife up. His weathered and hoarse voice revealed endless pain.

"Madam, please let Shuang'er... rest in peace..."

Su Ciyue had a cold look on her brow as she directed the funeral.

Jiang Shuo, wearing a special red and white wedding dress, held Lu Ningshuang's spirit tablet, climbed onto the horse, and walked in front of the funeral procession.

At the alley west of the gate of the Duke's Mansion, Lu Yingxue changed into casual clothes and watched from afar. A look of nostalgia appeared on her face, which usually showed no emotion.

The eunuch who had just replaced Hanqiu to serve Lu Yingxue understood what he meant and suggested cautiously:

"Your Majesty, would you like to go and take a look?"

Lu Yingxue shook her head silently, and her breathing suddenly became much heavier.

In her peripheral vision, her newly appointed prime minister bowed to her from a distance, then turned and merged into the funeral procession.

The words the other party said when he asked for leave could not help but echo in my mind.

"I would like to take half a month off to personally handle the funeral of the Second Miss."

"I have always stood on your Majesty's side, but my heart is always with the Second Miss."

One is her sister, and the other is the prime minister she relies on. Such a combination should naturally be feared by any emperor.

But that person called her sister!

"Sister~~"

"Sister, look at me!"

"Sister, why are you ignoring me?"

"Sister, your life will be better if I die."

……

"elder sister--"

A long cry reached her ears, and Lu Yingxue looked up suddenly, and in a trance she saw the girl's angry and tearful eyes.

She was pointing at herself and accusing:

"Everyone likes me, why don't you like me?"

"At first, I just envied you for being able to play freely in the yard..."

"The admiration of those people is like when I dress up carefully to go out on the street, a toad covered with pus suddenly lies on my feet and I can't kick it off...

I am angry and feel humiliated that you would rather like a toad than me!"

Lu Yingxue smiled and talked about how she had once fallen in love with Xiao Hengguang.

That was...how long ago?

But Xiaoshuang was right to scold him, Xiao Hengguang was just a toad.

Seeing the emperor suddenly crying and laughing, the eunuch was a little flustered and couldn't help shouting:

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Lu Yingxue came back to her senses and felt the coolness at the corner of her eye. She raised her finger and wiped it, leaving a little wet mark.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

The eunuch asked carefully.

Lu Yingxue rarely bothered to explain.

"I just saw Xiao Shuang."

After hearing this answer, the servants looked at the spirit flag that was disappearing into the distance and knelt on the ground trembling with fear.

Lu Yingxue frowned and returned to the palace angrily.

……

Countless pieces of paper money were flying in the sky, ethereal funeral music was echoing in the empty streets, and the funeral procession was moving in a mighty manner.

At the corner, Madam Jiang was supported by her maidservant Wu.

"Shuo'er——"

Mrs. Jiang called out tremblingly, and Jiang Shuo, who was holding the spirit tablet, stiffened. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, gently pulled the reins with his right hand, and turned over and got off the horse with the help of Jiang Wen.

"I have a small matter that I need to take care of first. Prime Minister Su, please hold the tablet of my beloved wife for me. I believe that considering the relationship between Prime Minister Su and my beloved wife, he will definitely not refuse, right?"

Worship in front of the coffin and conclude the marriage.

Jiang Shuo finally won over everyone and married Lu Ningshuang, legitimately and openly.

No matter how much he coveted her in the past, from now on, Sister Shuang would only be his wife.

After returning to Jinyang, Jiang Shuo had heard rumors that Su Ciyue had unusual feelings for Lu Ningshuang, but Su Ciyue never admitted it for the sake of Lu Ningshuang's reputation.

Moreover, this unprecedented wedding and funeral was presided over by this popular female prime minister herself, who took care of everything personally and ensured that there were no mistakes.

No matter what, he would appreciate this favor.

"Please rest assured, Prime Minister Su, I will not delay the auspicious time."

After temporarily entrusting the tablet to Su Ciyue's hands and repeatedly emphasizing that Lu Ningshuang was his beloved wife, Jiang Shuo ignored Su Ciyue's purple face and left the team.

Her fingertips stroked the name on the tablet inch by inch, Su Ciyue retracted her gaze from the man and whispered softly:

"As long as it's what you want, I'll do it."

Looking at her son walking towards her, Mrs. Jiang pounded her chest and could not utter a word.

"Boom!"

Jiang Shuo walked to Madam Jiang and knelt on his knees. Looking at his mother's haggard face, he shouted with red eyes:

"Mom, this is unfilial!"

Mrs. Jiang moved her lips and pointed at Jiang Shuo, ready to curse him, but when she saw her son's face, which was dark and thin from the weather, she gently placed her aggressive hand on his head.

"Shuo'er..."

Mrs. Jiang choked with sobs and raised her hand to pick up the paper money on Jiang Shuo's wedding dress. She was so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe.

The second daughter of the Lu family died, and her son's heart died too.

Now, she didn't dare to make any more requests. She just wanted him to live well.

"I am happy that you have achieved what you wished for. I sincerely hope that you will be happy every day in the future."

"Mom, don't cry, I will be fine."

Jiang Shuo raised his hand to wipe away Mrs. Jiang's tears, and his voice sounded light and light.

After Jiang Shuo left, Mrs. Jiang squatted on the ground and cried loudly.
