Chapter 438 Condolences
Since ancient times, human relations have been the bond between people. Weddings and funerals, children's full moon, birthday celebrations for the elderly, moving to a new home, etc. are all included.
Among them, weddings, weddings, and weddings pay special attention to etiquette.
"Red things call, white things come" is a common rule among people in the world.
In other words, happy events come uninvited, and funerals come uninvited. The Su family can go to the funeral with their own paper money without being invited by the Qin family.
Father Su laughed three times in his heart. He no longer had to worry about being rejected by the Qin family and losing face.
But what he didn't know was that someone else had thought of this too.
Early that morning, Su's father called his wife, children, and children, planning to set out with the whole family to Beiling Village.
Before leaving home, he told his wife and children to ease their relationship with Su Yunwan and Qin Junyi in the name of condolences.
After repeated warnings and a solemn response, Su's father led his family out for a ride.
But just as he was about to board the train, a servant sent an anonymous letter. When Su's father opened it and took a look, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
"Father, who is the letter from?" Su Shi saw Su's father sweating and looking uneasy, and he became nervous.
"No need to ask any more questions." Su's father put away the letter, sat upright with his eyes closed, and secretly clenched his hands into fists, his expression extremely solemn.
It turns out that the Su family has been under the surveillance of royal spies. The spies noticed the many encounters in the past and reported them to the capital.
The emperor mobilized the whole country to put down the rebellion, and defeated Prince Li's rebels. Only a few remnants of the defeated generals were left, and Prince Li was hiding like a bereaved dog.
The emperor, who had tasted the sweetness of victory, rushed out and sent the commander of the royal secret guards, giving him the power to mobilize all secret stakes, and ordered him to issue a military order to kill Qin Junyi.
A few days ago, Qin Junyi was assassinated on the way back to his hometown. This was the first time the secret guard commander planned it.
After the operation failed, the secret guard commander mobilized the secret guards who were ambushing the Qin family. At the cost of exposing the secret guards, he sent the most elite secret guards to assassinate him again.
This time, the assassin approached Qin Junyi, but Qin Junyi, who was at the peak of his martial arts, easily dodged the unexpected first sword and was subsequently killed.
Seeing that both operations ended in failure, the secret guard commander decided not to give away the heads of his subordinates, but to use Su's father as a chess piece.
Compared with other exiled prisoners, Su's father received enough preferential treatment. He could not just enjoy the resources without completing his mission.
The more important reason was that the secret guard commander had doubts about Su's father's loyalty to the emperor.
In the land of Youzhou, Qin Junyi became a veritable earth emperor with overwhelming power.
Although Su's father appeared to be a gentleman with both culture and character, he was actually a diligent politician.
He is a person who has fallen from a high position, and his biggest obsession is to restore his former glory and wealth.
If the Qin family were to steal the country one day, as the head of the country, and with his merits as a follower of the dragon, he would be granted the title of marquis and the prime minister.
But because he sold his daughter for profit and stood by while the Qin family was in decline, it is not easy to repair the relationship now.
Intelligence showed that the Su family, as the Yue family of Qin Junyi, not only was not reused at this time of employment, but even superficial human relations were stopped, becoming completely strangers.
For this reason, Su's father was ridiculed by many people and was so embarrassed that he stayed behind closed doors unless necessary.
Who knows if Su's father is committed to paying attention to the Qin family's movements for the purpose of assassination or for surrender?
The suspicion of the secret guard commander was not wrong. In fact, Su's father had been in prison and Xiao Xiang had visited the prison, and he had had different intentions. After Qin Junyi found out about his mission, he expressed his intention to his face.
It's a pity that Qin Junyi not only refused to accept it, but also humiliated and aggressively made Su's father walk away.
Now that he has received the order to poison and assassinate, Su's father is eager to ask Qin Junyi for help.
The Su family's horse driver seemed to realize his urgency and galloped forward. The Su family's carriage was galloping on the road at an extremely fast speed.

In a remote house in Beiling Village, white flags fluttered in the wind, and the atmosphere was solemn.
Qin Junyi wore an unhemmed white linen mourning dress and did not welcome or see off guests. Instead, he and Qin Ruolan stood in front of the funeral to thank every visitor who paid their condolences.
As for Su Yunwan, he allowed her to stay in the Qin Mansion with peace of mind on the grounds that the baby could not be separated from her mother, and there was no need to keep vigil together.
Wu Shaohan, wearing black clothes with a white cloth tied around his waist, quickly entered the mourning hall and whispered in Qin Junyi's ear: "Master, my wife's father came with his family to express his condolences, and Mrs. Su is also here."
Qin Junyi had already received news from the former Taifu Qi family: Su's father bribed beggars in Yanyun County, and if the Qin family came to the city, he would be informed in time.
Its purpose, which you don't need to think about, is to artificially create a chance encounter. It's just that he stayed in Beiling Village or the military camp and was not blocked by Su's father.
Now that he heard that Su's father came with his family, Qin Junyi was not surprised and said, "Let someone tell Madam."
"Yes." Wu Shaohan retreated quietly.
Everyone in the Su family arrived at Pei's former residence smoothly. Under the guidance of the servants, they burned incense and paid homage with sorrow on their faces.
"My mother-in-law, why did you leave like this? Wuwuwu..." Su Yunwan's stepmother, Mrs. Yan, knelt in front of the soul and cried in mourning.
I didn’t know, but I thought the relationship between the two families was very similar.
In fact, those who can come to attend the funeral are all powerful families. They are well-informed and have long known Qin Junyi's attitude towards the Yue family.
Seeing Yan's hypocritical behavior, many people felt contempt for her, thinking that she was too good at putting on a show.
Mrs. Yan was used to acting on every occasion, crying so hard that her heart was broken. Su Yunyuan beside her was affected by the atmosphere, and she also lowered her head and wiped away tears.
When Su Yunwan arrived, he saw such a hypocritical scene.
The corners of her mouth twitched involuntarily, and she walked into the mourning hall and said in a cold voice: "Grandma, father, stepmother, second brother, and second sister, you are here."
Mrs. Su held the prayer beads and nodded with a complicated expression.
After not seeing each other for many days, this granddaughter who has gone through many trials and hardships does not look haggard at all, but is becoming more and more radiant.
Even wearing plain clothes can't hide her peerless appearance, but it only brings out her otherworldly temperament.
No wonder she could become Qin Junyi's rival. Even after her mother's funeral, she was not allowed to work at the funeral, preferring to be criticized by everyone in the world.
Old Madam Su wanted Su Yunwan to cherish the feathers and not to be blamed, but she remembered that she had never cared about her affairs, and now that she was married, she could no longer care about her.
"Wanwan, my miserable daughter..." Yan's drama queen got up, wiped away her tears and stood up, holding Su Yunwan's hand and choked out a sob.
Su Yunwan took off her hand without leaving a trace, and Qin Junyi stepped forward and stood beside her, saying to everyone in the Su family: "Thank you to the old lady and my father-in-law for coming to see my mother off after a long journey."
Su's father looked sad and looked at Qin Junyi, who had been keeping vigil all day long and looked a little haggard, and said: "My dear son-in-law, please take care of yourself. My mother-in-law knows me at the foot of the spring, so I can't bear to see you so sad!"
Qin Junyi's eyes were red from staying up late, and he responded with a touch of sadness on his face.
