Chapter 412 part1
The spies that the emperor arranged in the Meng family were not highly skilled and they were not maidservants in the main room. They were only two ordinary servants. These spies have been in the Meng Family for more than 10 years. They don't perform well, so they were not eye-catching.
Such people were not easy to be discovered, but easy to deal with. People will not think about them too much.
On the same day, one of the two maidservants slipped and fell so hard that she could no longer move her lower body. After being treated by the doctor, she was picked by her family.
The other one, because she was too lazy at night, she kept the oil lamp ran out in the mourning hall. When she was discovered by the Meng brothers, she attacked people on the spot. The Meng brothers didn't spare her and shut her until Meng Laofuren's funeral is over.
The Meng Family was too busy to deal so much with two maidservants. There were noisy and troublesome people than those two. They have been with so many kinds of people. Those two didn't enter their eyes. At least the Meng Family didn't have doubts.
But of course, just because the Meng Family has no doubt doesn't mean other people also have no doubt. At least Lin Xiang was suspicious. Lin Xiang privately asked the doctor who gave treatment to the old lady. The doctor said that the old lady's body was in good condition. Meng Laofuren must be affected by an external factor and suddenly died.
Lin Xiang recalled that the Meng Family has said that the old lady has been calling Lin Chujiu's name before she died. He guessed that Meng Laofuren's death was related to Lin Chujiu, it's just… …
He hasn't had a chance to do a thing, Lin Furen and Lin Wanting caused an ugly scene in the hall, which made the Meng Family dissatisfied. As a result, Lin Xiang no longer paid attention to his suspicion. Besides, he will no longer found any clues in the Meng Family. Because by the time, he managed Lin Wanting's business, the shadow guard cleared all the traces that Lin Xiang wanted to check.
At this time, it was summer, the dead body should not be kept for a long time, but the Meng Family insisted for 7days mourning. Because of this, all the ice in the Meng Family was taken out to save Meng Laofuren's body, but it was still not enough… …
When Lin Chujiu learned about it, she let people send all the ice in Xiao Wangfu to the Meng Family. When Housekeeper Cao learned about it, he was glad that their Wangye was not in the wangfu. Otherwise, when their Wangye looked for ice, where will he go to find it?
Don’t say that their Wangye looked so cold, in fact, their Wangye hates the heat. Whenever the summer arrives, the yard where their Wangye is there must be an ice basin everywhere.
There were a lot of ice cubes in Xiao Wangfu. With the help of Xiao Wangfu, keeping the dead body for 7 days is no longer became difficult. The Meng Family took care of the old lady's funeral. It is necessary to make the funeral grand.
In fact, the Meng Family didn't do much, the funeral became extremely beautiful because, on the second day of Meng Laofuren's death, the emperor sent someone to deliver his letter. The emperor granted Meng Laofuren a posthumous title.
This was definitely a great honor for the Meng Family. So when the families, who were originally got cold to the Meng Family because of their relationship with Xiao Wangfu, learned the honor they received, the next day, they also came to visit… …
On the seventh day of the mourning period, it was Meng Laofuren's burial. On the road, the palace set up a festive road, the funeral procession was endless. The emperor also let the Crown Prince and the Third Prince personally come to the burial, which made the funeral grander.
