After a group of people pretended to be polite, Fu Liu brought up the topic of the officials wanting to demolish and rebuild the houses.
"I heard that the county magistrate wants to reclaim some wasteland recently. Although reclaiming wasteland is a good thing, unfortunately, the area he wants to reclaim happens to be where my mother's grave is." As he spoke, Fu Liu glanced at the county magistrate.
The county magistrate felt a cold sweat on his forehead. He had not expected that he would just be clearing some wasteland and end up at the tomb of the emperor's concubine's mother.
So, he immediately bowed to Fu Liu in a very servile manner, and said with a flattering smile on his face, "Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings. Please rest assured, Your Majesty. Since your mother's tomb is here, then this wasteland will not be opened."
"Oh, really? Will this affect your work?" Fu Liu continued to ask indifferently. She didn't care whether this would affect the county magistrate. She was just worried that the county magistrate would be two-faced and say this in front of her, and then continue to open up the wasteland after she left.
The county magistrate immediately said that it would definitely not affect his work, and thanked Fu Liu again and again.
This time, Fu Liu came back mainly for the purpose of reclaiming wasteland. Since the matter had already been approved by the county magistrate, there was no point for her to stay any longer. So after the county magistrate left, she immediately prepared to leave.
But before she could leave, she found that the Liu family members were blocking her way outside the courtyard gate.
The patriarch of the Liu clan stood in front of everyone, staring at Fu Liu with burning eyes.
After seeing the clan leader, Fu Liu felt disgusted. If it weren't for this clan leader, how could she be sold to an official's home?
After Fu Liu's mother died, Fu Liu was left alone in the village. The clan leader sold Fu Liu to the government under the name of Fu Liu.
Therefore, Fu Liu hated the clan leader and others deeply and did not want to have anything to do with them. If it were not for her mother, she would never come back here.
"Empress, we have renovated your mother's tomb." When the clan leader Liu Chengquan saw Fu Liu appear, he immediately stepped forward and said.
Fu Liu was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that after she left the village, these people would actually renovate her mother's grave.
"Where?" Fu Liu's voice was a little hoarse.
When they heard Fu Liu asking where his mother's grave was now, Liu Chengquan and others smiled even more deeply and immediately led Fu Liu to Liu Mingmei's grave.
On the way to Liu Mingmei's grave with Fu Liu, Liu Chengquan and others tried their best to please Fu Liu, hoping that Fu Liu would get some benefits for their clansmen because they were from the same clan.
In their minds, Fu Liu has now become successful. As a member of the Liu clan, Fu Liu naturally has the responsibility and obligation to carry forward the Liu clan.
Even in Liu Chengquan's heart, he was still thinking, if he hadn't sold Fu Liu to the imperial family, and the imperial family hadn't offered him to the emperor, how could Fu Liu have had the opportunity he had now? How could he have become the emperor's concubine and be admired by everyone?
So in Liu Chengquan's heart, he not only did not think that selling Fu Liu was a shameful thing, but he felt a little complacent and felt that Fu Liu should be grateful to him.
The group soon arrived at Liu Mingmei's grave. After seeing the grave, Fu Liu felt mixed emotions.
This tomb was newly built and made of blue bricks on the outside. It is very beautiful.
"I want to talk to my mother, you all go back." After seeing the grave, Fu Liu said to the people of the Liu family behind him.
Those people also knew that Fu Liu had not been back for many years, so it was understandable that he wanted to have a private chat with his mother at this time. Looking at Fu Liu's expression, he seemed to be somewhat moved because he had helped his mother rebuild the tomb, so the people of the Liu family had no objection to Fu Liu asking them to go back.
After everyone surnamed Liu had left, Fu Liu knelt in front of his mother's grave and said, "Mother, Fu Liu is here to see you."
"Mother, Fu Liu knows that mother has always loved Fu Liu. If Fu Liu did anything wrong, mother would never blame Fu Liu, right?" Chen Yalan, who was standing aside, felt her heart skip a beat when she heard Fu Liu say this, as if something was about to happen.
Her eyes were fixed on Fu Liu, but Fu Liu just knelt on the ground, bowed three times respectfully towards the grave, and then stood up.
After Fu Liu stood up, she ordered the people behind her, "Open this tomb for me."
What? When everyone heard Fu Liu's words, they just felt that Fu Liu was so overwhelmed that he looked at each other and did not dare to do it.
You have to know that this is Fu Liu's mother's grave. How can a child allow others to open his mother's grave?
Chen Yalan opened her eyes wide in disbelief. She stepped forward and grabbed Fu Liu's arm, asking, "Do you know what you are talking about?"
Fu Liu nodded: "I am very clear now. I know what I am doing. It is precisely because I know that I want to open this tomb and see what is inside."
"Stop it, this is just a joke. That's your mother's grave, how can you open it?" Chen Yalan couldn't accept it when he heard Fu Liu say that he knew what he was doing. He didn't understand what was wrong with Fu Liu and why he suddenly wanted to do such a thing?
Fu Liu looked at the hesitant people and said to them, "Why don't you even obey my orders? I told you to open this grave."
Seeing that Fu Liu was very determined, everyone did not dare to hesitate any longer. They had to pick up the tools at their feet, bowed to the grave, said sorry for disturbing them, and then started to work.
"Fu Liu, are you crazy?"
Seeing those people actually attacking the repaired tomb, Chen Yalan frowned and couldn't help but shout.
Fu Liu stared closely at the actions of those people and ignored Chen Yalan.
Seeing that Fu Liu was unmoved, Chen Yalan didn't want to say anything more. After all, this matter was Fu Liu's family affair, and she was an outsider after all. Since she couldn't persuade her, she could only listen to her wishes.
These people moved quickly, and soon the coffin was revealed inside the grave.
The moment the coffin appeared, Fu Liu's eyes turned red. She could see clearly that although the outside of the coffin was decorated very beautifully, her mother's coffin was still the same thin coffin as before.
