After being reborn, she became the richest man without being a queen

Chapter 106 Murder

Seeing that she had it too, Yingxiu was so excited that she almost saluted in the street, but it was Mrs. Ren who was quick to stop her.

After saying goodbye to Mrs. Ren, Shen Qingling held one on the left and one on the right, and moved under the big lantern with a smile on her face.Now she is in a good mood, she can see everything well, and her smile is so contagious that Yingxiu can't even care about the difference between master and servant, and devote herself wholeheartedly to the lantern festival.

There are floats parading on the long street, and the leaders of the brothels in the city either stand on the floats, or walk along with the floats while dancing.In addition, the jugglers of Wasi will also play, play, sing, dance with guns and swords on both sides of the long street, which is very exciting.

After watching enough performances, the lanterns will rise.

The biggest one is called Guose Tianxiang. The lamp is like a peony, as huge as a palace, and when it is dark, it is like a plum blossom in the middle of the night.

The noisy crowd became more and more excited because of the beauty of the country, and the fireworks that took off into the sky ignited the emotions of all spectators, pushing the excitement of the entire Shangyuan Festival to a peak.

However, amidst the joyful cheers, Shen Qingling heard a scream acutely.

"Follow me closely." She deliberately grabbed Zhou Langhuan and Yingxiu's hands.

Facts have proved that Shen Qingling heard correctly.

Soon there was a clearer scream again from the southeast direction, and the flames shot up into the sky, and the panic spread.

Originally, everyone was staring at all kinds of colored lights above their heads, and no one dared to run, but once they saw someone running back in front with a panicked expression, the rest of them naturally pulled the colored lights on their heads in a panic, and hurriedly followed the crowd .

Shen Qingling called Zhou Langhuan to remove the lamp on his head together, but instead of turning around and leaving, he walked towards the firelight.

"Someone's headlight is on!"

"No, it's not! It's caught on me too! My God, it's such a big fire!"

"Oh, I heard that she is the young lady of the Zhao family. She is a young beauty! In the blink of an eye, she has become a coke, and I don't know whether she is alive or dead... It's really pitiful."

"It's a pity, it's a pity, no wonder Ren Zhizhou exhorted the people to wear less colorful lanterns this year, he had the foresight."

The crowd running around slowly calmed down, gathered around the incident, and watched from afar.Those who were close to the person on fire had long since taken off their cloaks and cloaks to help put out the fire, and only then did they put out the fire on the person.

Zhou Langhuan tightly grasped Shen Qingling's arm, looked nervously at the little lady curled up on the street alone, and said, "Sister, I know her, she is Zhao Jiuniang..."

Even if the fire was extinguished in time, no one would move.

In Zhou Langhuan's words, Zhao Jiuniang is a demure woman who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is as indifferent as a chrysanthemum. Even if outsiders have no close acquaintance with her, they will love her very much.

Yingxiu, who was standing on Shen Qingling's left, had a face as white as paper, her lips parted several times, and finally turned her head to look at Shen Qingling, and whispered: "Second, Second Lady... her clothes..."

Zhao Jiuniang's clothes were the same as the one Shen Qingling wore when she went out, both were magnolias with a white background, and glazed jujube lamps.

"Very good, Yingxiu, you have made some progress." Shen Qingling raised her hand and patted the back of Yingxiu's hand, comforted her a few times, and motioned her not to continue, "This kind of trace doesn't look like a small lantern If it can cause it, if it can burn people like this, there must be fire on them.”

Where does the fire come from in ordinary people?
There are so many people at the Lantern Festival, it is actually not difficult to wipe something for the people around you.

And it didn't take long for the pedestrians to fight the fire, and it took only a long time for Zhao Jiuniang to stop crying in pain, and she didn't convulse and tremble, and she died directly, which was too weird.

The point is, how could it be such a coincidence that Zhao Jiuniang and Shen Qingling had such similar outfits before going out?The stature of the two is about the same. If they are strangers, if they look at them from a distance, it is possible to mistake them.

Just as Shen Qingling was meditating, a group of people cried and howled, pushed aside the crowd, and rushed towards Zhao Jiuniang who was on the ground.

It seems that they are relatives of Zhao Jiuniang.

The street patrol officers came very quickly, and the leader was Ren Shaochun, who had gradually come to the front of the stage recently, and I don't know if Ren Bingyi's ban on his three sons had been loosened.

"Second Lady is here?" Ren Shaochun ordered the yamen servants to surround the block, and walked up to Shen Qingling, "But what doubts did you find?"

If even Shen Qingling said no, then this should be just an accident.

"Let Zuo Zuo check Zhao Jiuniang's clothes carefully. I can't tell, and I can't draw conclusions in advance." Shen Qingling did not give a definite answer because of the presence of Zhao Jiuniang's relatives.

Among the crowd, an elegantly dressed woman prostrated herself on Zhao Jiuniang's body, crying, "Why is your life so miserable, Jiuniang! How do you want your mother to live alone? My mother is so heartbroken that she wants to go with you!"

Ren Shaochun turned his head and glanced at the woman, feeling a little sad: "This year when my father said that wearing lamp crowns should be banned, many judges were still trying to dissuade them, saying that the people's pleasures should not be banned, but something happened unexpectedly. "

"There is indeed a hidden danger." Shen Qingling nodded, narrowed her eyes and crushed the jade date lamp that had been blown out in her wide sleeve, then brushed it on the ground calmly, raised her hand and hooked her finger at Ren Shaochun.

The two avoided the spectators, the yamen servants and the Zhao family, and walked to the dark alley on the side of the street.

"When I went out, I was very similar to Zhao Jiuniang's clothes and headlights." Shen Qingling's hand hanging by her side trembled slightly, and the knuckles that crushed the headlight were glowing red, faintly scalding.

She pretended to be calm and comforted Yingxiu, covering up her emotions all the way, but the fear in her heart still couldn't be suppressed.

How can I not be afraid?
She has always been the only one who schemes against others, and it is rare for her to really go deep into danger!
But just now, someone died, most likely because of her, and she herself relied on a bit of luck to escape a death calamity by luck.

"I don't know who did it. The only person I offended was the Du family, and it is impossible for the Du family to return to Yangzhou to attack me." Shen Qingling ignored Ren Shaochun's shocked eyes and continued: "But in fact, I It’s not that I’m completely clueless, Shaochun, the reason I’m telling you this is because you’re also in the game.”

If it really took off, Shen Qingling could only think of the matter that she asked Ren Shaochun to investigate, which was the case of the mandarin duck and the pair of evil spirits.If it is really the vendetta caused by Cha Yuanyang and Shuangsha, then Shen Qingling has no doubt that Ren Shaochun will be the next target.

"Second Lady means..." Ren Shaochun put his hand on the sword at his waist, with a serious expression.

"Yes, what I mean is, something smelled at the door, maybe we have found a very important clue." Shen Qingling felt a little more relaxed when she said what was in her heart, "I was a little flustered just now, but seeing Your stable appearance now makes me feel much more at ease."
