On the night of rescuing Gao Siwei, Li Jixin, Liu Yin and others had already taken their men to Dongyang Prefecture.

Han Qingyun, Lu Yanyan and others stayed here to bring Ye Chengjing and Shen's ashes back to Jiyang.

The Ye family's ancestral home was in Jiyang, but when Emperor Yongle fought from Jiyang to Luocheng, Ye Tianzheng took his son Ye Jinchuan and his apprentice Tian Xiuxiu to treat the wounded along the way, and later settled in Luocheng.

Now that Tian Xiuxiu and Ye Jianan have returned to Jiyang, the ashes of Ye Chengjing and Shen Shi will naturally have to return to Jiyang as well.

Twelve years ago, the Ye couple were trampled to death by war horses, their bodies torn into pieces.

Gao Siwei and Wang Xiao collected their bodies, but they couldn't put them together.

Minzhou Prefecture has high temperatures all year round. Gao Siwei was afraid that the bodies would rot quickly, so he wanted to bury them as soon as possible.

Wang Xiao dragged his broken leg again and again to the place where the two people died, looking for the remaining limbs.

Even a finger, a piece of hair, or even a piece of clothing.

But the battlefield was littered with body parts, and Wang Xiao had no way of telling whose was whose, so he could only try one by one.

Lin Pingyuan was worried that the rotting corpses would cause a plague, so he wanted to have all the corpses burned.

Gao Siwei had a big quarrel with him.

At the time, both of them were fourth-rank military generals, and neither of them had a higher official position than the other.

General Dou, commander of the Minzhou army, also died in that war.

The two men had a fight.

Although Lin Pingyuan was beaten badly, his men still burned all the corpses of both the enemy and our army.

In fact, there was really no way to avoid burning the body at that time.

It would be a terrifying thing if 100,000 corpses caused a plague.

At that time, there were more than 200,000 survivors of the Minzhou Army, but almost everyone was injured. It was unrealistic to collect the bodies of 100,000 people who could not be distinguished between enemies and friends.

After burning the bodies of the soldiers, Lin Pingyuan actually wanted to burn the bodies of the Ye couple.

Of course Wang Xiao and Gao Siwei disagreed.

While they were arguing, Ye Jianan, who had received news from the medicine boy, arrived.

As soon as he arrived, he heard both parties arguing over the bodies of their son and daughter-in-law.

Upon hearing the news of their death, Ye Jianan fainted.

Gao Siwei carried Ye Jianan to the tent, and when he went out, he saw Wang Xiao being pinned down by Lin Pingyuan's men, and the bodies of Ye Chengjing and his wife were missing.

It turned out that Lin Pingyuan was worried that Ye Jianan would take revenge on him after seeing the two men's mutilated bodies.

Ye Jianan was just a doctor without an official position, and he was not afraid of the Ye family.

But Ye Jianan often went to the palace and had a special relationship with Emperor Huiren.

He was worried that Ye Jianan would complain to Emperor Huiren.

The bodies of Ye Chengjing and his wife were burned, so there is no evidence to prove that they died on the battlefield.

When Gao Siwei and Wang Xiao arrived, the two bodies had been burned to ashes.

They were worried that Ye Jianan could not bear it, so they did not dare to tell him that Ye Chengjing and the others died in a miserable way.

Gao Siwei mentioned this matter to King Lin, but everyone kept it a secret from Ye Jianan.

Until now, Ye Jianan didn't know that the bodies of Ye Chengjing and his wife were not complete.

Ye Jianan lay in the Minzhou military camp for nearly three months.

At that time, Lin Pingyuan was demoted and transferred to Qingping County.

Gao Siwei collected the ashes of Ye Chengjing and his wife and asked Ye Jianan to take them back.

But Ye Jianan buried the ashes in the woods not far from where they died.

When Li Jixin took Han Qingyun and others to leave Jiyang, he went to find Ye Jianan.

Ye Jianan asked them to take the ashes back...

Today is October 15th.

At that time, they didn't know when the work would be completed.

Li Dezhi calculated a dozen auspicious days for moving the graves.

October 15th, at the hour of Si, is one of them.

Han Qingyun, Lu Yanyan and Lu Changping lit another stick of incense for Ye Chengjing and his wife.

Lu Liang, Lu Changping and Yang Li took out shovels.

Zhao Xingwu took the shovel from Yang Li's hand.

"This job is for men, you just watch from the side."

When Zhao Xingwu said this, his face flushed with shame and there was some sweat on his forehead.

Lu Changping looked up at the sky and asked in confusion, "Brother Xingwu, you haven't started working yet, why is your face so red? And you're sweating, it's not hot today."

If it wasn't the wrong occasion, Lu Yanyan would have laughed out loud.

Even Li Jixin could see Zhao Xingwu's feelings for Yang Li, but Lu Changping was the only one who knew nothing.

Lu Changping's words made Zhao Xingwu's face even redder.

He secretly glanced at Yang Li, and seeing her expressionless face, he felt a little disappointed.

The coffin was opened to reveal a blue-gray urn.

When Lu Liang took out the jar, a scene that seemed familiar to him flashed through Lu Yanyan's mind.

She tried to think what it was, but nothing came to mind.

Han Qingyun saw that her face was not right and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Lu Yanyan frowned and thought about it, but couldn't think of anything.

"I don't think I've seen this before, but I can't remember it."

Han Qingyun used his hands to smooth away Lu Yanyan's frown.

"If you can't remember, forget it. Maybe you'll remember it someday."

Lu Yanyan nodded, but still couldn't let it go.

After the urn was taken out, everyone covered the coffin again, buried it with soil, and restored it to its original appearance.

After doing these things, Han Qingyun and his party went to Dongyang Prefecture to meet Li Jixin.

They rode at full speed all the way until the next night, when they finally arrived at Changgan Town, which is the border between Dongyang Prefecture and Minzhou Prefecture.

Li Jixin and others stayed at the Yunlai Inn in Changgan Town.

After the reunion, Wang Xiao knelt in front of Han Qingyun and others, and kowtowed to express his gratitude. If it weren't for these people's help, it would be unknown when the Wang family's blood feud could be avenged.

Han Qingyun helped him up, and then he and Gao Siwei exchanged greetings.

Gao Siwei was also very grateful when he met Han Qingyun for the first time.

His escape was naturally due to Han Qingyun's planning.

"I've met your elder brother Han Qingshan."

Gao Siwei couldn't help but chuckle when he mentioned Han Qingshan.

He is truly a simple and honest person without any scheming, completely different from someone like Lin Pingyuan.

"Have you met my eldest brother?"

When Han Qingshan arrived in Minzhou Prefecture, Gao Siwei should have been imprisoned.

Han Qingyun really didn't know that Gao Siwei and Han Qingshan had actually met.

"Well, in early June of this year, he and that guy named Zhao Chun came to see me..."

In early June, the news that Han Qingyun and others would be taken to Ji Yang reached the Minzhou camp.

Han Qingshan and Zhao Chun asked Lin Pingyuan to meet Gao Siwei.

Both of them were Lin Pingyuan's confidants, and they had tokens given by Lin Pingyuan in their hands, so Qin Xian and others naturally did not dare to stop them.

Gao Siwei and Wang Xiao were having dinner at the time. They thought that these two people were also sent by Lin Pingyuan to humiliate them, so they ignored them.

Their meals consisted of yellowed vegetable leaves without any oil or fishiness. Their rice was also the worst kind of brown rice, and it had a slightly sour smell.

Even the most ordinary soldiers eat better than this.

Han Qingshan was surprised when he saw it.

"Is this what you're eating?"

Wang Xiao threw his chopsticks in anger.

"If not this, what should I eat? Are we not allowed to eat this?"

Han Qingshan didn't understand why Wang Xiao was angry.

But Zhao Chun understood it.

He pulled Han Qingshan aside and explained a few things to him in a low voice.

But Han Qingshan was very straightforward and got angry immediately.

"General Gao hasn't been convicted. Even if he's an old associate of Prince Lin's, imprisoning him here is enough. Why are you still mistreating him?"

Han Qingshan called Qin Xian over and asked him why General Gao's food was worse than that of ordinary soldiers.

Qin Xian had never seen such a stupid person. Even if this person was Lin Pingyuan's confidant, they dared to treat Gao Siwei like this because Lin Pingyuan tacitly condoned it.

Qin Xian criticized Han Qingshan a few times and was also very disrespectful to Gao Siwei in his words.

Han Qingshan kicked Qin Xian down.

"The Emperor hasn't convicted General Gao yet, and you keep calling him a criminal. Are you any better than the Emperor?

A general who fought for his country for twenty years and achieved great success is being treated like this? Anyone dares to bully him..."
