Rebirth of the Return of Chu

Chapter 126 Look at that face again

As soon as he got on the carriage, Mu Chu shouted to Wang Xing without caring about etiquette: "Wang Xing, come up, I have something to ask you."

Wang Xing naturally knew what she was going to ask, and felt a little embarrassed, but looking at Mu Chu's appearance, he was worried that something might happen to her, so he could only get on the carriage: "Miss, don't be too sad."

Mu Chu was furious: "So you know everything and deliberately hide it from me? I want to know the truth."

Wang Xing knew he couldn't hide it anymore, so he calmed down and said, "Miss, the person who died in the battle was actually the military advisor. You've seen him. The general is fine, but his identity from now on can only be a prince."

Mu Chu's heart finally settled down, but for some reason he still felt inexplicably sad.

When it was getting dark, everyone returned to the general's mansion. Wang and Qin Mufeng also wanted to go in, but were kicked out by Wang Xing.

Early the next morning, a soldier came to report that the prince had arrived at the city gate with the general's coffin, and the emperor personally came out of the palace to greet him at the city gate.

Mu Chu had already arranged for people to prepare funeral supplies and set up the mourning hall at home early, waiting for the arrival of the team.

Near noon, a huge procession entered the city. Mu Chu stood at the gate to greet them. When she saw the team carrying the coffin clearly, she couldn't stop crying. The man was standing at the front of the team, slowly approaching her, and on the other side followed the already high dusk smoke. People on the roadside sighed, some wiped their tears silently, and the whole street was solemn.

When they arrived at the gate, Mu Chu led a group of servants and knelt down to welcome his uncle's coffin into the house according to etiquette. After everything was settled, Li Wenyu came to Mu Chu and said, "I'm sorry, Chu'er, I didn't protect the general well."

Mu Chu was a little puzzled. She thought he would say a few pleasantries and ask her how she was doing, but she didn't expect that he would open his mouth with these words.

Then he changed his mind and thought that with so many people present, it would be inconvenient for him to reveal his identity, so he replied: "Your Highness, don't mind. My Qin family is full of loyal and brave people. My uncle sacrificed himself to protect the people of Golden Phoenix. I am proud of him."

Li Wenyu didn't dare to look into her eyes any more, so he could only find an excuse: "Chu'er, I have something else to do in the palace. Xiao Se will stay here. If there is anything, ask him to do it."

After he left, Mu Chu silently returned to the mourning hall and looked at Mu Yan, who had a haggard face.

Before she could speak, Mu Yan started to cry: "Third sister, uncle is gone, our uncle is gone, he lost a lot of blood, and we couldn't stop it. There is no one to protect us anymore."

He hadn't cried for many days, but the moment he saw Mu Chu, he couldn't hold it back any longer and burst into tears.

Mu Chu squatted down and wiped the tears from his face again and again: "Cry, it's okay to cry, uncle will always be by our side to protect us, you have to learn to grow up, you have to protect me, I'll tell you a secret, you have a little nephew now, you have to protect us."

Mu Yan suddenly stopped crying: "What did you say? Nephew?"

Mu Chu nodded: "Keep your voice down, I'm pregnant, you're going to be an uncle, so you have to cheer up, the Qin family can't be destroyed in Qin Mufeng's hands, you are the only hope of the Qin family."

Mu Yan asked, "Sister, is it the prince's child?"

Mu Chu nodded: "Yeah."

Mu Yan's eyes changed, and her gaze was firm: "Sister, don't worry, I swear in front of my uncle's spirit that I will protect you and make the Qin family prosperous."

Mu Chu patted his head and said, "Okay, sister believes you. I will accompany you to see uncle off for the last time."

The two of them waited until dark, but Li Wenyu didn't come, and Mu Chu was a little disappointed.

Xiao Tao came to call Mu Chu several times, but Mu Chu refused. He just felt that Yun Shaochen was a little pitiful and wanted to stay with him. Thinking back to when he saw him in the military camp, he had become a cold corpse.

Taxue was in low spirits the whole day and stayed close to Mu Chu.

During dinner, Taxue suddenly jumped up and landed on the coffin. A group of servants saw it and hurriedly tried to chase it away, but they accidentally opened the coffin.

Mu Chu was standing aside, and suddenly she saw clearly the person lying in the coffin. It was the familiar face of Qin Yuanyi. Even though it was pale, it was still the face that she had dreamt of many times in her dreams when she was young.

Mu Chu suddenly felt a pain in his chest, as if something was strangling his throat, and tears fell uncontrollably.

Mu Yan noticed something was wrong with her and went over to pull her: "Third sister, third sister, stop looking."

Mu Chu pushed Mu Yan away for some unknown reason and walked closer. She just wanted to see that face again. Even though she knew it was not him, she felt heartbroken for some reason. She just wanted to see him again and reached out to touch that face.

At this moment, a big hand suddenly pulled her away, and held her in his arms. When she looked again, the coffin had been closed.
