After receiving Wang's order, Xiao Xiao led five thousand cavalry to travel day and night, and arrived in Liyang the next morning.

The Empress Dowager of Qin died of illness, and Yueyang was the territory of the Ying family's clan. On this day, no matter it was the city gate guards, soldiers, clan relatives, or ministers. Basically all of them brought Bai Ling and wore a thin white cloth.

At the gate of the city, Xiao Xiao's cavalry all stopped. The guards with the white spirit on their foreheads saw Xiao Xiao and the iron cavalry dressed in black, so they naturally knew who it was.

In addition to the soldiers, there are five or six relatives of the Ying family in Moyo at the gate of the city. They are responsible for welcoming the envoys, dignitaries and clans of Yan, Qi, Wei and Chu.

Don't look at the possibility of war at any time, but as long as it doesn't start. Thinking of things like Zhao Ji's death, other countries will still send envoys to Qin, and even some important figures from the clan will come.

When the Ying clan saw Xiao Xiao, two or three leaders walked forward slowly.

They were all relatives of Ying Zheng, so they naturally knew why Xiao Xiao led the troops here, and even in private, they expressed their support for Ying Zheng.

One is that the black-clothed army is the elite of the Qin State, Xiao Xiao and the others can rest assured that this important escort task is entrusted.

The second is to choose to bury the Empress Dowager in Yongzhou City, and the person who escorts the coffin must be Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao stepped forward and cupped her hands.

"General Xiao!"

The members of the clan nodded. There is no need to be too polite at this time. Accompanied by them turning around and saying something to the servants. After a while, carriages full of white cloth slowly left the city

Xiao Xiao took Bai Ling and white clothes from a servant. Put it on and put it on at this time.

Five thousand cavalry officers and soldiers—take a white spirit from the carriage and put it on your head. In a short while, you can see more than 5,000 black-clothed cavalry, all wearing white spirits on their heads.

"Black Army!"

"No wonder they were able to repel the Xiongnu and face Li Mu, you can tell at a glance that they are all good fighters.

"I didn't expect that the one who escorted the coffin this time was actually the army in black."

Many envoys or nobles from other countries, when they were about to reach the city gate, couldn't help but lift the curtain of the car, looked at the black-clothed army, and whispered to the people in the same car.

They had already heard of the name of the black-clothed army, and they had already been curious about their achievements.

Today I was able to see the appearance of the black-clothed army in Yongzhou. Seeing a black-clothed general guarding both sides of the road in an orderly manner, without saying a word, they sighed one after another. Military discipline is the strongest.

This is not the first time they have been envoys to other countries to pay homage, but the soldiers of other countries will whisper to each other when the general is not around, even when the general is there, they will look left and right, especially like to watch the passing carriages and noble children.

There was only one person standing in Buyu, on both the left and right sides, and Dai Bailing's black-clothed soldiers guarded the road to three miles outside the city.

There was no sound, no movement.

Seeing this scene, not to mention the high-ranking officials and nobles riding in carriages in other places, even the relatives of the Qin Kingdom couldn't help but look complacent, as if to say: This is my great Qin elite.

In the clan mansion, Akatsuki had already arrived at the gate.

Behind him, white cloth was hung on the eaves of the whole city, and all the shops and restaurants were closed. In the prosperous streets in the past, there is nothing else except seeing a few people occasionally.

The mansion guards saw Xiao Xiao and did not stop him. A striped black dress is known to everyone now, and no one will fake the swank on Xiao Xiao's hair.

Just now entering the mansion, Xiao Xiao heard wailing in the distance. A servant and servant wearing a white spirit came and went.

A servant wearing a white spirit took Xiao Xiao to the backyard, where there was a huge wooden coffin. On both sides of the courtyard, more than a hundred servants were motionless with their plates. Ceramics, jade and jewelry are placed on the plates.

"Master Xiao, this way please!"

The waiter said to Xiao Xiao, instead of walking directly through the middle of the courtyard, he detoured from the other side.

Finally entering the lobby, Li Si, Wei Liao, Changping Jun, Wang Guan, Xin Sheng, Meng Wu, Meng Yi... countless civil and military officials, many of whom Xiao Xiao didn't know.

They were all in the lobby, wearing white spirits and white clothes, whispering something to each other.

Seeing Xiao Xiao coming in, many people nodded slightly to Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao also nodded in return.

On this occasion, there will be no one to bow their hands and salute. In this atmosphere, it is not appropriate.

Under the leadership of the poet, Xiao Xiao walked through the hundreds of officials, and saw Ying Zheng in the room behind the lobby.

In addition to Yingzheng, there were twenty or thirty crying men and women in the room. They knelt on both sides of a coffin, sobbing softly while burning paper on the fire.

The waiter quietly came to Ying Zheng, bowed his head and said something, then Ying Zheng turned around slowly and looked at Xiao Xiao.

At this time, Xiao Xiao also saw Ying Zheng, and it was the first time he saw Ying Zheng with red and swollen eyes. Obviously it was caused by Zhao Ji's death.

"Kings!"

Xiao Xiao came to Ying Zheng, bent down and lowered her head.

"Is everything done?"

Ying Zheng's tone was still full of sadness, and he completely lost his previous majesty.

Zhao Ji and Ying Zheng used to be hostages in the State of Zhao, and the mother and son hid in Tibet. No matter what mistakes Zhao Ji made later, in Ying Zheng's heart, he always remembered that his mother was with him when he was a child.

wink at him.

Now that Zhao Ji passed away, the blow to Ying Zheng was not small.

"..have ordered!"

Xiao Xiao said easily.

The funeral lasted for three days and began early on the third day. The inner and outer coffins were carried out by the people of the clan and put into the trapped Bobing.

Xiao Xiao stood behind Ying Zheng. The specific process was also explained by the people of the clan just now. Seeing that everything was ready, he came to Ying Zheng and bowed down. After Ying Zheng nodded, he turned and walked to the front of the coffin.

Feeling that Yingzheng and the clan, everyone's eyes are on him. Look at the coffin with two long thick straight sticks tied with white cloth.

"rise!!"

Xiao Xiao groaned, and more than 20 soldiers who had already prepared raised the coffin with all their strength.

Turning around, Xiao Xiao took the lead.

Outside the mansion, Li Siweiliao and other civil and military officials were already standing on both sides of the road. When they saw Xiao Xiao's figure walking out of the gate, they all lowered their heads for a moment.

After Xiao Xiao, the coffin was carried out. (Qian Nuo's) walked slowly among the civil and military officials.

During this period, everyone kept their heads down, expressing their respect.

A servant walked in front of Xiao Xiao, came to Xiao Xiao's war horse, and tied a white spirit around the horse's neck. After doing all this, the servant will lead the horse to Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao drove the horse and led the coffin-carrying team slowly towards the outside of the city.

Along the way, there are heavy guards with Bai Ling tied to their heads. The people closed their doors and refused to open the virtuous.

Outside the city gate, beside dozens of carriages, there were people from the clan standing. Yingzheng, as the monarch, cannot go to Yongzhou, and the secular regulations prohibit the monarch from seeing the tomb. Therefore, the general burial is accompanied by people from the clan.

If Ying Zheng wants to go to worship, he has to wait until next year.

When the clan members saw Xiao Xiao in the city, they got into the carriage one after another. Under the escort of black cavalry. Go ahead in a carriage.

All the black-clothed iron cavalry officers and soldiers held bows and crossbows, and looked around with vigilance.
