Unparalleled Concubine

  Chapter 39 The Second Dig

  When Li Xin first came to this world, if it wasn't for the charcoal seller, he would have already died in that ruined temple. This was a real life-saving grace, and it would not be too much to return it.

Moreover, the words and deeds of this old man who sold carbon did not look like an ordinary poor family. Li Xin even suspected that the reason why he wanted to save himself at the beginning was probably because his health was not very good, and he wanted to find someone to entrust to the little girl. people.

Now, the old man's actions have confirmed Li Xin's conjecture. The charcoal seller ended his own life just because of Li Xin's words. The purpose was just to entrust the six-year-old girl to Li Xin. letter around.

After the old man closed his eyes, Li Xin sat beside his bed for a long time in a daze.

   This old man, who was so humble in the grass, resolutely ended his life.

   The charcoal **** the side threw herself into her grandfather's arms and burst into tears.

   Li Xin was in a daze for a long time before he stepped forward, patted the charcoal girl's back lightly, and said softly, "Girl..."

   He thought about it for a long time, but couldn't think of any words of comfort, and finally he could only sigh.

"I am sorry for your loss."

The little girl is only five or six years old, and she has only just started to remember things at her age, but she has been dependent on the charcoal seller since she was a child, and her relationship is naturally very deep. At this time, the charcoal seller suddenly disappeared, and Xiaoya's mind became blank , only know that lying in the arms of the elderly crying more than.

  Li Xin shook his head and said softly, "Girl, don't run around, I'll take care of the funeral for the old man."

When a person dies, naturally he can't just leave it at home. At the very least, he needs to be buried in the ground for safety. Now that Li Xin is rich, he can't be like his uncle, and he can't just use a straw mat. The money bought a decent thick coffin, and then hired a few people to carry the charcoal seller to Beishan outside the city.

  The two grandfathers and grandsons have no relatives in the capital, and Li Xin has no relatives or friends in the capital, so the funeral is not prepared to be a big deal.

Early the next morning, when Li Xin took someone and pulled the coffin near the wooden house in Beishan with a wooden cart, he found that the original burning traces of the wooden house had long since disappeared, leaving only an open space. , there is no trace of any buildings in the open space.

   If Uncle Li Xin's low tomb was still nearby, Li Xin would not even recognize that this is where the original log cabin was.

   Seventh Young Master is right, the people of Jingzhao Mansion will really wipe away all the traces here.

In fact, it is not surprising when you think about it carefully. The big-character poster incident was so big, the Jingzhao Mansion had already fallen into a disadvantageous position in that incident, and Jingzhao Yin Li Ye was demoted because of this. They will definitely take this Clean things up so that things don't escalate further.

   Seventh Young Master can predict these things in advance, not because he can calculate them, but because these are common things in the officialdom, and if you see them a lot, you can guess them for granted.

   It was morning, Li Xin looked up at the sky, turned back to the four or five hired workers who were carrying the coffin, and said, "You all go back, and come back in the afternoon."

Among the four or five people, the one at the head was a black-faced man, he bent towards Li Xin and said, "Master, do you want us brothers to help him find a reliable Feng Shui master, and this grave pit, if there is no manpower here, my son? , our brothers can also help."

Li Xin took out the consistent money from his arms, handed it to the man, shook his head and said, "The money will not be short of you, you are no longer needed, and I will come back in the afternoon to help carry the coffin into the pit, remember to bring some more paper money. "

   This man took the money and nodded quickly: "The son is busy here, the villain will go back first."

   Li Xin nodded.

   After these people were all gone, he turned around and walked to the coffin, and patted the rather thick coffin lightly.

  For burials in ancient times, first talk about the material of the coffin, and then talk about the weight and thickness. The heavier the coffin, the better. When the royal family was buried, there would be a coffin outside the coffin, which was extremely heavy.

However, these are naturally unrealistic for ordinary people. For ordinary people, it is a good end to have a thin coffin. If it doesn't work, it will be like Li Xin's uncle, who only has a straw mat. Wrap up.

   Now that Li Xin is rich, the coffin of the charcoal man cost him dozens of dollars, which is worthy of him.

   This old man saved his life first, and then indirectly because he died, Li Xin felt somewhat uncomfortable.

   He took out an iron lift from the wooden cart, walked towards the uncle's grave, and then chose an open space not far from the uncle's grave.

   Li Xin had promised the old man that he would dig a grave for him when he left. This was the man's promise, and Li Xin did not forget it.

  Although he could hire someone to do this now, he would always feel uneasy if he didn't dig it himself.

  The death of the charcoal seller, although he did not do it, has nothing to do with him. If the people from the Marquis of Pingnan had not come to burn the house, then things would never have developed to the point where it is today.

  Tie Tie went deep into the soil, and pieces of soil flew up and down. Li Xin was expressionless, and his hatred for the Pingnan Hou Mansion grew even more in his heart.

That time, the Marquis of Pingnan sent someone to burn the house and directly injured the old man to the point of lying on the bed, unable to move. If it weren't for the fact that he almost lost the ability to move, the old man would never have used the method of seeking death to kill Li Xin and follow him. Charcoal girls tied together.

  Thinking of this, the anger in Li Xinxin finally had a way to vent.

   When it was almost noon, a rectangular tomb had begun to appear. Li Xin was sweating profusely and sat beside him to rest.

   The little girl wiped her tears while helping Li Xin carry the soil in the tomb, and from time to time she stretched out her hand to wipe Li Xin's sweat.

  A carriage came from the direction of the capital and stopped not far from the tomb. His Royal Highness King Wei, dressed in black, stepped out of the carriage, followed by the graceful Cui Jiuniang.

   The seventh prince walked up to Li Xin and sighed slightly: "I just received the news, so I'm late. The old man was fine a few days ago, how can you say it's gone?"

Li Xin was silent for a while, then raised his head to look at the seventh prince, and said blankly: "The people from the Pingnanhou mansion came to burn the house and injured the old man. already."

The seventh prince shook his head, but did not speak. He looked at the tomb of the first size behind Li Xin, and shook his head: "How can you do these things alone? Say hello to me, and I will send someone to help you. Just deal with it."

  Li Xin took a deep breath, stood up from the ground, picked up the iron lift, and jumped down from the grave.

   "Some things, you have to do them yourself to show your sincerity, otherwise Li Xin will not be able to sleep in the middle of the night."

   At this time, several blood blisters had been rubbed out of his hands, and every time he exerted force, it was an excruciating pain.

   This incident made Li Xin's understanding of this unknown era a lot clearer.

  If you don't have power, you can only be like a charcoal seller, letting others handle it, and in the end, you can only use your own life as a last resort.

  The seventh prince put his hands on his back and looked at Li Xin, who was sweating like rain in the tomb, with a complicated expression.

   This young man in Yongzhou is very different from the cool young people in the capital...
