Chapter 1351 1338. At the funeral
In the early morning, when the sky was just getting bright, the lavender in the night sky had not completely faded, the morning star was still hanging stubbornly in the sky, and there was a light mist outside the city of Ruyt.
A black magic caravan passed through the woods, and Suldak was sitting in the car.
This magic caravan without a family emblem has been affixed on the outside of the car by the people of the city hall to represent the emblem of the city hall. In this way, this magic caravan has become very recognizable. Everyone will know that the Suldak Consul is here.
Suldak didn't care about such small things. He stepped out of the magic caravan wearing a black dress, and Sia also wore a dark and simple long dress, sitting opposite Suldak.
Through a red pine forest, you come to a **** outside the city. This is the territory of the Benton family, and the woodland on the hillside is the cemetery of the Benton family.
In the open space below the hillside, dozens of magic caravans have gathered, and some nobles have gathered below the hillside.
Many people walked along a stone step road that extended halfway up the mountain, and several young people from the Benton family were standing next to the stone steps at the foot of the mountain, greeting the nobles who rushed over to mourn the old earl.
Some nobles walked along the stone steps towards the cemetery halfway up the mountain. There were already many nobles standing on the long stone steps.
Everyone stood on both sides of the stone steps, some were chatting in whispers, and some were standing silently.
It was only at this time that Suldak noticed that the coffin of the old Earl Benton stopped at the beginning of this stone step, and the Minister of Logistics, Earl Benton, stood next to the coffin, standing with Minister Allen, They were three nobles with badges of honor on their chests, and they seemed very natural when they chatted.
It seems that he is not sad because of the departure of the old Earl of Benton, and he is still gesticulating with his hands while chatting.
The Benton family should be regarded as a big family in Ruyt City, with a large number of family members, but these Benton families have not shown any outstanding figures in recent years. Minister Alan Benton is the number one pick of the Benton family. The heir, but only the first earl.
Suldak stepped out of the carriage and immediately walked towards Alan Benton.
The nobles who were chatting just now stopped talking one after another. Everyone turned their eyes to Suldak who came down from the magic caravan. With a hint of vigilance.
The master of ceremonies at the funeral did not let Surdak come to the coffin, but led him to the cemetery on the hillside.
When Suerdak reached the gate of the cemetery, the bell of "Dangdangdang" came from the foot of the mountain. Suerdak's eyesight was very sharp, and he saw the coffin bearers at the foot of the mountain begin to carry The gorgeous coffin walked slowly up the steps.
The nobles standing on both sides of the steps became serious and stopped talking.
Suldak saw that the people of the Benton family all wore family crests on their chests, and a large group of people stood at the gate of the cemetery, among them were many female relatives.
The master of ceremonies introduced to Suldak that the women standing at the front of the crowd were all old Benton's wives.
When he saw that the other women in the front row looked very young, he realized that the old Earl of Benton really enjoyed life...
Among the many wives of the old Earl of Benton, there is actually a wife with light makeup on her face. Under the wrapping of the black dress and headscarf, her face looks a bit charming, and her figure is extremely hot. Hot, it gives people the first impression Like a ripe peach.
Suldak stood at the highest point of this step, and his position was particularly conspicuous.
Looking away from the woman, the woman seemed to feel Suldak's gaze. She boldly raised her head and looked towards Suldak, even with a hint of provocation in her eyes.
Suldak glanced back, only to realize that among the wives of old Earl Benton, the youngest woman had very pure and youthful eyes, and there was sadness in her eyes.
Suldak withdrew his gaze and waited quietly for the coffin to be carried to the cemetery by Minister Allen and others.
When the coffin was carried to the cemetery, the children of the Benton family surrounded the coffin and walked in one after another. Suldak found that even Minister Alan Benton had no sad expression in his eyes, especially those young noble children. .
Among the crowd, only the young wife who was waiting at the back was extremely pale, looking very sad, and gained the sympathy of many nobles.
Someone had dug the grave in the cemetery, and the coffin was put into the pit. The nobles who came to mourn each took a bouquet of flowers, walked around the coffin that had not been covered with soil, and finally put the coffin in their hands. Flowers covered the coffin, and due to the large number of people, it didn't take long for the coffin to be covered with golden sunflowers.
Suldak waited aside, and after everyone circled the coffin, they reunited in front of the tomb.
At this moment, the master of ceremonies asked Suldak to come forward and deliver a speech of condolence to Earl Benton.
Suldak was not polite either, he walked to the front very quickly, and under the watchful eyes of a group of nobles and members of the Benton family, he said to everyone:
"I know that he is an earl with outstanding military exploits. When he was young, he owned a lord army with outstanding military exploits. He has always been the pride of the Benton family and the greatest glory of the Benton family. Now he I finally finished my glorious life, and now I lie peacefully in this cemetery, living here with the ancestors of the Benton family..."
In fact, Suldak was not familiar with the old Earl of Benton, but his condolences made no one find any faults.
In the end, Alan Benton also stood up and said something. The whole funeral was busy for more than half of the breakfast before it was considered complete.
Watching pieces of soil being backfilled into the tomb, Suldak realized that the funeral was about to end. He exhaled slightly, and prepared to chat with the Minister of Logistics, Earl Alan Benton, after the end.
At this moment, a faint smell of jasmine perfume entered Suldak's nose, and the charming Mrs. Benton boldly approached Suldak, if it wasn't for Samira Stop it, this Mrs. Benton seems to be colliding with Suldak.
"Master Consul Suldak, may I treat you to a cup of afternoon tea?" The charming Mrs. Benton asked Suldak.
Suldak turned his head and glanced at Siya, who immediately opened the notebook, and then pretended to say: "You have to go to Yezipias Manor later..."
"It seems that I can't find free time, sorry!" Suldak turned his head and said regretfully to Mrs. Benton.
