The proper term for those is not a slur, but a tie.  Ties are made
with a tilde symbol '~'.

In your example you would write:
   <e cis'>1 ~ | <e cis'>4

I was going to write up a link to documentation about ties, but that
strangely seems missing from the 2.11.60 docs that went up.  I see a
section on "Curves" but only slurs are listed there with a link
someplace about the "nestedness of curves and ties" but I can't find
out if ties are mentioned elsewhere in those new docs. Strange.  Is
that section somewhere else?
