Chapter 361
A group of people slowly walked into the mourning hall, and the servant immediately sang loudly, and the sound echoed in the empty mourning hall.
Shangguan Ziling walked in front, her steps firm and calm.
The mourning hall was decorated solemnly and dignified. Yun Canghai's coffin was placed in the center, surrounded by white curtains embroidered with delicate patterns.
Shangguan Ziling walked into the mourning hall and saw Yun Shen kneeling on one side of the hall. She frowned slightly but quickly regained her composure.
Qiu Kui walked to Shangguan Ziling and lit three incense sticks for her.
Shangguan Ziling took it and bowed three times towards the mourning hall.
"Family members return the greeting." Her voice was low and powerful, full of respect and reverence.
Immediately, a servant bent down, took the three incense sticks from Shangguan Ziling, and put them in place.
Yun Shen knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Shangguan Ziling in return.
There was a trace of apology and regret on his face. "Thank you, Princess Regent, for not holding it against me." His voice was a little hoarse, but full of sincerity.
Yun Shen added: "Thank you, Princess Regent. Please forgive me for my recklessness a few days ago."
"My condolences," Shangguan Ziling said lightly.
Shangguan Ziling's gaze turned to Yun Youyou who was crying beside her.
Yun Youyou rushed over and knelt down beside Yun Shen with a plop. She took the sackcloth in her hand and put it directly on her body. Her face was full of tear marks and her hands were clenched tightly together.
She was crying and wrapping herself in sackcloth, seeming to be trying hard to control her emotions.
"Sister, you haven't recovered yet, you don't have to..."
Before Yun Shen could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yun Youyou, "I want to see my father off for the last time."
Shangguan Ziling looked at Yun Youyou, and couldn't help but feel an inexplicable emotion in her heart.
She recalled the time she spent with Yun Youyou, and those happy and carefree times seemed like they happened just yesterday.
But now, Shangguan Ziling suddenly found that Youyou could no longer be as happy and carefree as before.
Shangguan Ziling took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
Shangguan Zirun also knelt beside Yun Youyou, wiping her tears, but Yun Youyou opened her hand.
Shangguan Ziling saw this scene and sighed: "People will change, right?"
"Master, the little fat boy's love for you will never change."
Shangguan Ziling felt better. She felt it was very depressing here, so she walked out.
Xiliang had evil ambitions and wanted to kill the generals of their Dongyue Dynasty. Shangguan Ziling really wanted to go to the Xiliang Palace and put some poison to kill them all.
If General Yun had not encountered misfortune, her brother and Youyou should be very happy and sweet now.
It was General Yun's unexpected accident that changed everything.
Shangguan Ziling left the general's mansion and took a deep breath. The air outside was much more comfortable. After staying inside for a while, she felt like she was almost suffocating.
"Shangguan Ziling"
Shangguan Ziling turned around and saw Jun Wanting. Shangguan Ziling raised her eyebrows and looked at her.
The queen went crazy in the cold palace, and the deposed crown prince Jun Yaotian was kept in the Sky Prison. The emperor did not punish him, so he was kept in the Sky Prison.
The emperor only dealt with the queen's family, and all the ministers who rebelled with the queen were confiscated and killed. No one knew what the emperor was thinking. The secret guards said that the queen had gone crazy in the cold palace, and the emperor did not issue an edict to depose her.
The fifth princess, Jun Wanting, was not punished, but the emperor did neglect her. A princess is not favored, and the queen and Jun Yaotian are like that. I guess Jun Wanting must have had a unhappy life in the palace!
Jun Wanting said, "Princess Regent, can we talk?"
Shangguan Ziling said calmly: "I don't think we have anything to talk about?"
Jun Wanting smiled bitterly and said: "It was all my fault before. I was so ignorant that I wanted to compete with you for the position of regent. Now this princess has nothing. I just want to ask you for a favor."
Shangguan Ziling smiled and said, "Fifth Princess, don't you think that given our friendship, it's good enough that I don't take advantage of you? If you ask me to do something, I will agree?"
Jun Wanting knelt down after hearing this.
Shangguan Ziling was stunned by Jun Wanting's kneeling action. Could this once proud and indulgent princess put aside her dignity and kneel down to beg her?
Shangguan Ziling suddenly became curious about what she was asking her for!
Shangguan Ziling said, "Fifth Princess, the weather is cold. Get up. It's snowing heavily. Shall we go to the teahouse and have some tea?"
When Jun Wanting heard this, she immediately raised her head and her eyes lit up.
The palace maid beside her hurriedly helped her up.
