Chapter 21 (How about a promise?...) (1)

    The mourning hall is located in the main hall, the coffin is parked on the main seat, and the hall is covered with white curtains. The cool breeze passes through the hall, and the white curtains and lamps and lanterns swing together.

    It was late at night, and the neighbors and relatives had long since left, and there were only a few relatives and relatives left on the mourning hall. As a widow, Gu Chaochao knelt down on the futon in front of him and fell asleep.

    After a long time, there was a slight footstep behind him. Gu Chaochao stayed for two nights in a row, but he couldn't hear it for a while, until someone opened his mouth to say goodbye: "Master Shizi."

    She paused, forced herself to sit up straight.

    "Go down." He said indifferently.

    "Yes." The

    servants hurriedly backed away, but a few of the vigil looked at each other with relatives, not knowing what to do for a while, one of the older ones gathered up the courage and said, "According to the rules, we can't...

    " Before she could finish speaking, she met Shen Mushen's gaze. She was silent for a moment. When the people next to her saw this, they quickly helped her up. A group of people walked out slowly, and soon the mourning hall was clean.

    Gu Chaochao lowered his eyes and never looked up.

    Shen Mushen didn't call her, but sat down on the futon beside her calmly: "Are you afraid?"     Gu

    Chaochao didn't look at him: "I didn't do anything to me when I was alive, so why be afraid when I die."

The etiquette is not the same as in normal ancient times. People like Yongchang Hou who died of illness need to stay alive for three days longer than those who are dying of life, but normal people do not need to be cremated. Put it in the coffin for another seven days.

    Today is the third day of Marquis Yongchang, and at this moment it has turned into a pile of ashes.

    What's so scary about ashes. Gu Chaochao felt that Shen Mushen asked nonsense.

    "What I'm asking is, are you afraid of me?" Shen Mu looked up at the dark coffin.

    Gu Chaochao was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he replied in a low voice, "I'm not afraid."

    Shen Mu let out a chuckle from his deep throat, but there was no smile in his eyes: "Liar." If he wasn't afraid, why would he do everything possible to leave?

    Gu Chaochao pursed his lips and didn't speak, and Shen Mushen didn't ask any more questions, the two were silent again. The black coffin stood silently in the upper position, the white flowers tied with silk on both sides were dazzling and cold, like a pair of lifeless eyes, staring at everything on the mourning hall.

    After a long time, Shen Mushen said softly, "When will you be able to like me?"

    Although it was a gentle and helpless tone, Gu Chaochao's heart was still raised. After thinking of something, she suddenly felt a little uneasy.

    Sure enough, Shen Mushen suddenly looked at her: "You really don't want to stay by my side so much, would you rather be slaughtered than stay away from me?"

    Gu Chaochao was a little surprised, but a little taken for granted.

    It was she who was careless, forgot to hide the letters, and forgot that no matter how good Hongchan was to her, it was also because of Shen Mushen that it was impossible to be truly loyal to her.
