After Qin Shu woke up, he staggered away from everyone, crawled to the urn with difficulty, and carefully held the box in his arms.

She caressed him gently over and over again, murmuring Lu Lin's name.

Everyone's eyes turned red as they watched the scene before them.

Ye Rong burst into tears

"The old man... the boss... the boss... is really gone..."

Throughout his life, Lu Zhenghe lived up to the expectations of heaven and earth, was loyal to his monarch as a minister, and was loyal to his people as a general. However, he never expected that one day he would have to bury his loved ones.

Isn't he also hoping for a lucky break?

If he didn't see the corpse one day, he would think that perhaps the two of them would have an adventure, and perhaps meet a strange person like Sheng girl.

Lu Xuan's eyes also turned red. He stood beside the old couple of the Lu family and coaxed them patiently. After a long time, everyone stopped crying.

Qin Shu was tired of crying, so Jiang Sheng gave her some tranquilizer pills and helped her go back to rest.

When he came back, the old couple of the Lu family had calmed down. Lu Xuan, with red eyes, was discussing with them how to deal with Lu Lin's funeral.

The old couple naturally wanted their eldest son to be buried in peace, but Lu Lin had other ideas.

"What I mean is to find a quiet place at home to place my eldest brother's ashes. My eldest brother has been separated from us for a long time, so naturally he wants to be with us.

We don't know how long we will stay in Jiangcheng. If we bury our eldest brother now, we will disturb his peace.

Why not bury Big Brother in our ancestral tomb when we return to Beijing someday?"

Ye Rong looked at his youngest son

"Third brother, how do you know we won't stay here for too long?"

After Lu Xuan thought for a moment, he said in a deep voice

"Jun Ze and I have been exchanging letters. He has been secretly investigating the Fengcheng incident. Now he has obtained a lot of substantial evidence and is just waiting for the right time to overturn the case for the Lu family."

Jiang Sheng walked to the side and sat down

"Grandfather, grandmother, Third Uncle, this time when I went to Fengcheng, I not only found Daddy's body, but also saved Er Yang."

"Who are you talking about!"

"Second Yang?"

"Er Yang is still alive!"

Jiang Sheng nodded.

"Yes, he had lived alone at the bottom of the basalt cliff for a long time. Affected by the miasma and those poisonous plants, he had gone mad. When we first met, he almost killed us.

Fortunately, they later saw his clothes and recognized him as a member of the Lu family army, so they spared his life. Fortunately, he was spared."

Ye Rong quickly asked

"So where is Er Yang now? Is he still crazy?"

"Grandmother, I have cured him. He is now with the Third Prince."

Ye Rong felt relieved when she heard that the person was with Qi Junze. She looked at Jiang Sheng for a long time, but finally couldn't help asking.

"Sheng'er, Er Yang is Azhou's personal attendant, have you discovered..." Jiang Sheng said after a moment of silence

"At first I also thought that Ah Zhou was at the bottom of the Xuanwu Cliff, and I searched for him at the bottom of the cliff for several days but couldn't find him.

Later, on the way back, when he was treating Er Yang, he recalled intermittently that when falling from the top of the cliff, the seriously injured Azhou fell by chance on a horizontal tree in the middle of the cliff.

Later, the branch broke, and Azhou fell into the river at the bottom of the cliff along with the broken branch."

Jiang Sheng's voice was choked with sobs.

"He watched Azhou fall into the river."

Lu Xuan suddenly stood up

"The river at the bottom of the Xuanwu Cliff? Where does it flow to? Have you gone down to look for it?"

Jiang Sheng's eyes suddenly turned red

"But when we went to the bottom of the cliff, we didn't see any river. Later, we heard from the old people in Fengcheng that there is indeed a river, but it is an underground river that only appears in certain seasons. Usually, there is only a dry riverbed. As for where it flows, it probably flows underground."

Lu Xuan muttered absentmindedly

"Then there is nowhere to be found."

Ye Rong burst into tears again when he heard this. At least his eldest son's body was still there, but his eldest grandson's body was nowhere to be found.

If the eldest daughter-in-law knew about this, she would be so upset.

Lu Zhenghe said in tears

"Sheng girl, don't tell your mother about this yet."

Jiang Sheng wiped away tears

"I know."

After saying that, Lu Zhenghe looked at her and sighed.

"It's hard on you."

Jiang Sheng shook his head with tears in his eyes.

Ye Rong cried and asked

"Sheng'er, have you ever asked Er Yang what happened in Fengcheng?"

Jiang Sheng cried and nodded

"asked."

Ye Rong wanted to ask more, but was interrupted by Lu Zhenghe

"My dear, Sheng is already tired enough. We can talk about these things later. Besides, now that we know that we can't do anything except make it more uncomfortable, it's better not to ask."

"But do I want my son, grandson, and the 50,000 Lu family soldiers to die in obscurity?"

Lu Zhenghe said in a deep voice

"They will not die in vain. Junze will not let those people go. But now you and I are imprisoned. Even if we know, it will be useless. Why don't you let yourself go? Listen to me, okay?"

Ye Rong and Lu Zhenghe have been together for many years and know each other very well. Just from this one sentence, Ye Rong knew that his partner might have known the truth.

But why can't I tell myself?

Is there any other reason for this?

After a long time, Ye Rong sighed and said

"Forget it, forget it. If you don't want me to know, I won't ask."

But both of them knew that this matter could not be kept secret forever, and they would know it one day when the truth came out.

After a moment of silence, Lu Xuan suddenly asked

"Sheng'er, you said there were still thirty or forty bodies at the bottom of the cliff. Were they all carried out? How were they handled?"

“We hired someone to carry them out, and wanted to bring them back for burial after cremation, but Er Yang said they were orphans adopted by the Lu family, and that they learned skills and joined the army thanks to the Lu family’s care.

They once said that if they died on the battlefield one day, they did not want to be buried in the ground, but wanted to be blown away by the wind.

Since they cannot travel around when they are alive, after death, they want to ride on the wind and travel all over this beautiful land.

So, that day I scattered their ashes on top of the Xuanwu Cliff. "

Lu Zhenghe sighed heavily

"This is what they wished for."

When Jiang Sheng came out of the Lu family, he felt extremely heavy.

Yingqiu, Nanzhu and others followed her quietly, not knowing what to say, nor daring to say anything.

When walking out of the intersection, Jiang Sheng raised his eyes and saw the tall and slender masked beauty standing in the sun.

"Why is he here, sir?"

Zhiyu said in a cold voice

"I brought General Lu's ashes back today. I thought you would feel bad, so I came to comfort you. You don't need to thank me. You are my lifeline now, so naturally nothing can happen to you."

Jiang Sheng pulled the corner of his mouth when he heard this.

"You are such a strange person."

Zhiyu looked at her, seeming to be puzzled.

"Oh?"

Jiang Sheng stood beside him, and the two walked slowly forward.

"When we first met, you acted as if nothing had happened to you and you were indifferent to everything. You were cold and distant to others, but now you have changed quickly."
