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

Chapter 61 The clue is broken
"My appointment with Mrs. Ren is dinner, what are you in a hurry for?" Shen Qingling flicked Ren Shaochun's paw away, and said angrily: "If you don't follow, go home first, and I will go to the appointment in the evening .”

At dusk, Shen Qingling threw the big and small bags to Shao Cong, and only brought two exquisite silver boxes to Ren's house.

Seeing that it was Shen Qingling, the servant at the door of Ren's house hurriedly and enthusiastically led him into the courtyard, and after he walked through the second door, the shout of welcoming guests had already spread to the main hall, causing Mrs. Ren and Mrs. Ren's family to be nervous He hurried out.

"Ah, this is Second Lady Shen? She looks so fresh, looking from afar, she looks like a painting!" Ren Minyan was pregnant, and when walking, she held her stomach with both hands, and the maid beside her was also extremely nervous.

"Qingling has met Madam and elder sister." Shen Qingling saluted with a smile, handed the gift in her hand to the servant at the side, and continued: "I have been clamoring to come to see Madam, but I always delay it because of trivial matters. Madame has been waiting for a long time."

Mrs. Ren is wearing a yellow dress, with a slanted bun, no jewelry and hairpins, and she looks kind and amiable.

She embraced Shen Qingling very enthusiastically, and while patting Shen Qingling's hand, she said: "Where is it? If the second lady can come, it will be a blessing to our family. Also, next time, no more money is allowed. Come to your own home, why do you need to bring something?"

Ren Shaochun, who was not cared about by the veranda, looked a little pitiful.

The servant bowed over and called him to wake him up: "Mr. Sanlang, the lady has already returned to the main hall. Look..."

"Whatever to look at, of course I'll go too." Ren Shaochun rolled his eyes and ran to the main hall with his hands behind his back.

The meals are already prepared, and they can be served as soon as the guests arrive.So after Shen Qingling took her seat, the maids filled the table with delicacies one after another in half a cup of tea.

If only watching this dinner, Shen Qingling would feel that the Ren family has a good education and the relationship between mother and child is harmonious.

But is that really the case?

As far as Shen Qingling knew, Ren Jiashiro's body had been placed in the government office after it was burned to ashes.Not to mention, from the gate to the inner courtyard, there is no funeral ceremony anywhere in the Ren family, and it doesn't look like a new funeral home at all.

All kinds of doubts were buried in Shen Qingling's heart, but did not surface.

After a peaceful meal, Ren Bingyi came back from the government office, and he was alone, not seeing the two brothers Ren Shaoyan and Ren Shaoming.On weekdays, Ren Bingyi is busy with official duties, and things like meals are always made to do in the government office, so the Ren family's dinner is not prepared for him.

It was still watching people come back, so Mrs. Ren ordered the servants to turn on the fire again to warm the rice and cook for Ren Bingyi.

But Ren Bingyi didn't go home for dinner.

He came back with very bad news—

The person sent by Zhao Yi to investigate Zhou Fu returned, but found nothing.According to reports from the chief officials, Zhou Fu's tomb has been stripped clean, not even the bones left, and the old house where he once lived has been turned upside down, let alone find any usable evidence.

As for the two guards...

There is no news, no way to check.

"This person behind the scenes is still one step ahead of you." Shen Qingling said helplessly.

She is not Princess Shou now, so she does not have the ability to forcibly bring Kuang Ye out of the prison, and even if Ren Bingyi and Zhao Yi agree with her and believe that Kuang Ye is not the real murderer, it is impossible to release him without evidence .

"The more this is the case, the less likely the wilderness is the real culprit." Ren Bingyi slapped the table angrily and said, "How can a prisoner in prison get the ability to clear up the evidence before the government? This group of people is simply blind." Ji, there is no kingly law! If Zhou Chenyu's case is not solved, what face do I have to be the magistrate of Yangzhou?!"

The Wu Mao case frustrated Ren Bingyi's morale to a certain extent, which made him more stubborn in Zhou Chenyu's case.

Shen Qingling sighed, and changed the subject: "What about the other cases that Ren Zhizhou is working on? How many did those two scholars recruit? If you don't have a clue about one case, you can turn your attention to the other one first."

Ren Minyan, who was sitting next to him and listening all the time, was taken aback, with a slight embarrassment flickering in his expression.

Ren Shaochun was also a little surprised, he didn't expect that Shen Qingling still remembered the case of his fourth brother, so he hesitated and said: "Father, where did the eldest brother and second brother go? It's so late, and I haven't seen him back."

Otherwise, Ren Shaochun's brain is not very bright, and even interrupting is extremely stiff.

Ren Bingyi gave him a sideways look, and said bitterly, "What have you learned from being with Er Niangzi in the past few days? You haven't learned half of your cleverness, so why don't you shut up quickly."

Shen Qingling didn't want to make things difficult for the whole family, she just smiled, revealed the matter, and said: "We went to bid for a public house during the day, but it was a pity that the young man from the Du family ruined it. It was a bit regrettable that I couldn’t buy it in the end.”

Of course, Ren Bingyi had heard about the matter of the public housing, so he hurriedly said haha, and continued the conversation.

When Shen Qingling came out of Ren's house, the moon was over and there were not many people on the street.

The watchmen walked through the streets and alleys with loud voices.

Originally, Ren Shaochun wanted to send Shen Qingling off, but Shen Qingling insisted that he could go home alone, and after a lot of talking, he reluctantly persuaded Ren Shaochun.

Walking alone with the moon all the way, when passing by the entrance of Dongliu Alley, Shen Qingling saw the owner of the coffin shop next door.It was an old man in a brown robe, with a hunched back and a staggering walk, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.

In Shen Qingling's memory, the old man's surname seemed to be Di, and there was only one nephew in his family.His nephew and nephew don't come and go frequently on weekdays, so only Di Lao can be seen busy in the coffin shop.

Although there was a moon in the night but there was no light, Shen Qingling was worried that the old man would not see the road clearly and would fall, so he hurried to catch up and supported old man Di from the side.

"Yeah, it's the little lady in the alley." Di Lao met Shen Qingling a few times, and recognized her with just a glance of his head, and then said cheerfully: "It's the surname Shen, right? Thank you, little lady Shen, for helping me." Look at my old bones."

Shen Qingling nodded and said: "Yes, it's good for Mr. Di to call me Erniang."

Di Lao has a faint woody fragrance on his body, and when he speaks, he is not as old as he looks, on the contrary, he is still a bit hale and hearty.Seeing Shen Qingling being so close to people, he smiled even deeper, and replied: "Haha, it's good for the second mother to call me Di Zhang."

"As long as Mr. Di doesn't dislike it." After saying that, Shen Qingling helped Mr. Di to walk slowly.

All of a sudden, there were only light and shallow footsteps left in the alley.

After walking for a short distance, Di Zhang straightened his back slightly, looked at Shen Qingling with gentle eyes, and asked, "What's bothering Er Niang? If you don't mind, you can tell the old man about it. Enough is enough." Age, some things, the old man may be able to see more clearly."
