All the ancestors in the capital begged me to be a substitute

Chapter 153 Whatever you want, you can let go and do it
In the mourning hall, the grandma Zheng, who had rested for half a day, and her husband Su Chengye knelt in front of the mourning hall to keep watch.

Su Chengye was still immersed in the puzzlement and pain of "how could Uncle Jiu be like this".

Zheng originally wanted to take advantage of the fact that Xie Wanyan couldn't get off the stage during the day when there was no one around, to persuade her husband not to meddle in his own business in the future.

The big girl in the room walked in with her steps pressed down, and whispered in her ear: "My servant saw Zeng Mama next to Madam, and was talking with Zhao Chunlan in a whisper. After Zhao Chunlan finished talking with Zeng Mama, she went to Lian Pretty gone."

"Xiao Die, who has been helping Lianqiao's house for the past two days, told the maidservant that she saw with her own eyes that day that Zhao Chunlan slipped the jade pendant into Lianqiao's hands. Today, Zhao Chunlan offered a reward of ten taels at Xie Mama's house in your name. Find the jade pendant for money."

It wasn't until this moment that Mrs. Zheng realized that she had unintentionally listened to Zhao Chunlan's words today, became a pawn in the mother-in-law's game, and almost caused trouble for her upper body.

Mrs. Zheng consciously married into Su's family in the past few years, and did not fight or rob, and took care of Zhongfu without complaint.

Although she is not as good as Xie Wanyan from a famous family, she is also the daughter of a scholarly family.

I thought that I would be safe and secure by keeping myself safe, being filial to my parents-in-law, and not meddling in other people's affairs.

Unexpectedly, in the end, the mother-in-law secretly instigated her steward to use her name to get ahead on such occasions, and almost dragged her into the quagmire.

Such behavior made Zheng think of all the things in the hall today, and suddenly felt a cold feeling.

She turned her head and saw that her husband was still grieving for Uncle Jiu——
Zheng Shi secretly gritted her teeth, stepped forward and grabbed her husband's sleeve, put it next to his ear, and whispered: "Husband, I still have someone..."

The first seven days of the ancestors of Wu'anbo Mansion may be the days when Wu'anbo Mansion, which has always been low-key, has the best reputation in the capital.

There is no other reason, but the news that Su Xian, a prodigal son of the Wu'anbo Mansion, killed his mother for money spread like wildfire.

The case shocked the ruling and opposition parties.

The emperor's imperial pen Zhu Bian sent an angel to investigate the case with the embroidered envoy.

According to Su Xian's request, the emperor allowed him to perform a spiritual ceremony for Wu Anbo's ancestor on the first seven days, hoping to recall the ancestor's soul and plead guilty to her face to face.

So, on the night of the ancestor's first seven days, all the relatives and friends who came to watch the fun in the mansion had already broken through the threshold of Wu'an Bo's mansion, and surrounded the Bo's mansion with three floors inside and outside.

In the small courtyard next to the mourning hall, Shen Lingxi was still a little dazed when she received the imperial decree from Chu Yan.

She looked at the name on the imperial decree repeatedly, and couldn't believe it, the emperor not only sent her to be the emperor's envoy to assist the embroidered clothes envoy in investigating the case.

He also specifically mentioned her Taoist name, and allowed her to practice for the ancestors together with Su Xian.

Shen Lingxi did not forget that the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, like the grandson of the emperor in front of him, hated witchcraft, witchcraft, and people who pretended to be ghosts.

Chu Yan looked at her and said: "From now on, your 'puppet technique' is the soul-returning technique approved by the emperor himself. You can do whatever you want without any scruples."

Shen Lingxi never expected that with this ability, she could still pass the bright road in front of the Great Zhou Emperor.

Thinking of the "grace" that Chu Yan said that day——
Shen Lingxi saluted and was about to thank her.

Seeing her intention, Chu Yan stretched out his hand to stop her, "Don't get me wrong, it has nothing to do with me. Firstly, it was the matter of King An that touched the emperor, and this is the reward you deserve."

"Then comes the emperor's grandmother, who really likes you, thank you for the old man who mentioned it in front of the emperor, that's why the emperor issued the imperial edict this time..."

Shen Lingxi was puzzled: "But His Highness clearly said that day that he was going to ask the Emperor for a favor."

"That's the grace to change the supernatural ritual into a soul-calling ritual." Chu Yan said seriously.

Although he made the relationship very clear, Shen Lingxi knew in his heart that this matter must have such a result because of his dealings with it.

She silently made a note to him in her heart.

I hope that I will have the opportunity to repay this kindness in the future.

Chu Yan handed another dossier to her, "This is what you asked Chunjun to check earlier, the accounts of Yang Shuangwen's interpersonal relationship and money transactions in the capital, and the situation of Yang Shuangwen's wife and children passed back from Jiangnan."

Shen Lingxi took it and looked at it with a glance, his eyes were full of surprise.

She raised her eyes and looked into the distance, still looking at her Yang Shuangwen with pity.

He waved the file in his hand.

Then, put the dossier on the table aside and enshrine it to him.

Then, together with Chu Yan, they left the courtyard.

After they left, Yang Shuangwen frowned and walked to the table, picked up the file, and examined it carefully.

When he saw the last page, his face changed instantly...

Midnight, the hour when the first seven return to the soul.

The mourning hall in Wu'anbo Mansion was brightly lit with candles.

Shen Lingxi was wearing Taoist clothes, holding a dust whisk, and stood next to the coffin of the ancestor with downcast eyes.

This time, it was the first time that she used her original face to appear in the mourning hall of outsiders in full view.

With Su Xian here, Shen Lingxi doesn't have to show off her ostentatious Ritual Rituals in front of everyone.

There were quite a few people on the field who had attended the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet before. Naturally, some people would recognize her as the beautiful Fengyi female official who was next to the Empress Dowager before.

Someone in the crowd kept whispering:
"I heard that Su Xian is going to summon the soul of the ancestor of the Wu'anbo family today. Is there really a soul-returning technique in this world?"

"Why not? I heard that in the Temple of Longevity, there was a Kun Dao next to the female ghost who cheated on the corpse. Maybe it was the soul returning technique."

"The court has already banned the practice of witchcraft, how dare Su Xian disobey the court's ban?"

"Hey, this is the Xuanmen technique that the emperor wrote in Zhu Zhu. How can it be considered a witchcraft technique? Have you seen Taoist Miaoling? She is the emperor's special envoy appointed by the emperor this time."

"Su Xian, a prodigal son, is indeed extremely rampant. He even dared to summon his soul when he killed his mother. He was not afraid that the ancestor of Wu'an Bo's family would turn into a ghost and beat him to death..."

"Hehe, you all think highly of Su Xian too much. His Ritual Rituals are completely different from other people's. Let's wait for him to really bring back the soul of our ancestors before worrying about them!"

These discussions naturally spread to the mourning hall and the ears of the masters of the Su family.

At the beginning, Su Xian originally said that he wanted to "extend" the ancestors, but today the emperor ordered the Dabo Mansion verbally, but it turned into "returning the souls" to the ancestors.

Although the Su family felt that something was wrong, they didn't take it to heart.

After all, in the eyes of the female family members of the Su family and Su Chengming, Su Xian was just a libertine who only paid money from home, so how could he take his so-called "soul return technique" seriously.

Although Wu Anbo and Su Wei didn't believe it either.

But his younger brother was smart since he was a child, and he selfishly hoped that Su Xian could really make some achievements in Taoism in these years.

In this way, he can also see his mother again and make up for some regrets.

Therefore, Wu Anbo took it most seriously.

Uncle Su Chengming was obviously absent-minded, and his eyes couldn't help but cast glances at the emperor's grandson Chu Yan who was sitting on the top of the guests.

Even Chu Yan noticed that he seemed to have something to say to himself.

Just when Chu Yan was about to tell Chun Jun to go up and ask——
The brightly lit candles in the mourning hall suddenly dimmed...

　One more chapter, hair fixed.

　　A baby left a message saying that this round is too long. I will try my best to pass this part, because I have to complete a change of identity and career in this round. After this round, it will be a relatively big progress. I don’t like it. You can skip and skip after watching this section. I will mark the title at the end.
