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

Chapter 30 An Embroidered Handkerchief

Shen Lingxi and Mu Huai'an returned to Fu'an Hall together. The body of the man in black and the blood in the courtyard had already been cleaned up, and there was no trace of the soul of the man in black.

Killers like them live a life of precarity and licking blood on the edge of a knife. They have long been mentally prepared for death.

Once you die, you will turn into a wisp of dead soul, accept the fact, the soul will soon dissipate, and you will be reincarnated.

The premise is, don't find out that there are people like Shen Lingxi who can see the soul of the dead in this world.

If they found out, some people would not be willing to reincarnate early, hoping to reconnect with this world through Shen Lingxi.

In front of her, he tried every means possible, including but not limited to coercion, intimidation, lure by sex, begging for mercy, etc., trying his best to make Shen Lingxi, a living person, be driven by them.

For example, this one in front of you——
Waiting for Shen Lingxi at the gate of Fu'an Hall early in the morning, the dead soul of a magpie.

After death, the magpie is really dressed up as a servant girl and like a master.

As soon as he saw Shen Lingxi, he stepped forward and covered his face with sarcasm, "Shen Lingxi, you are really capable. You can guess that there will be killers who will come to kill Zhao Afeng, and let them catch them all. I really underestimated you. Do you think Will Zhao Afeng be safe in this way? Hehe, I’m not afraid to tell you, if she can’t stop yesterday, she must die.”

Shen Lingxi frowned, glanced over Magpie's face, turned to Mu Huai'an and said, "The other party sent so many people to kill Zhao Afeng last night, but if they failed, there must be another trick, please Shaoqing find someone Temporarily hide their family of three in a proper place, and let them out when the truth comes to light."

Mu Huai'an responded, then turned around and ordered people to prepare.

Shen Lingxi went directly to the mourning hall to find Zhao Afeng, told her about the assassination last night, and discussed with her, "Today, we will choose an auspicious time to bury Liu Si, so that we can leave as soon as possible."

From the beginning to the end, he never even looked at the magpie.

The magpie didn't expect that Shen Lingxi would immediately decide to hide Zhao Afeng with just one sentence. If she accidentally said something, wouldn't it be tantamount to sending news to Shen Lingxi again.

She closed her mouth tightly, staring at Shen Lingxi with resentment in her eyes.

No matter where Shen Lingxi goes, she will follow.

Yaoniang's funeral has been done for the third day, Shen Yuyao suddenly got up for some reason, and brought a few mothers who can take care of funerals from Xuanpinghou's mansion to help the director.

With them sharing their worries for free, Shen Lingxi is also happy and relaxed.

Although Shen Yuyao didn't roll up her sleeves to serve porridge, she still patrolled around in front of people without touching her feet.

The poor people who have seen her all praise her as a "living Bodhisattva" with a beautiful person and a kind heart.

Huizhi Lanxin, gentle and generous... all kinds of compliments were all on Shen Yuyao's head, which made her very useful.

Sometimes, that's the way it is.

The deceased has gone west on a crane, and he doesn't care about the false name after death.

But the living people still want to use this to earn some honor for themselves in front of others.

Shen Lingxi has seen too many times. His biological parents didn't care about them before they were alive, but after their death, they calculated their inheritance, knelt in front of the mourning hall, screamed and cried, and acted like a filial son and grandson.

People like Shen Yuyao are nothing.

At least they spent money and did good deeds.

Shen Lingxi asked Miaozhen female crown to count it as an auspicious time, and together with Ah Xiang, Da Huo and Zhuang Sheng, they also called a few Kun Dao from Jinxian Temple to accompany Liu Si's family to bury Liu Si's body burial.

Because of the farewell that night, although the four Liu family members were in grief, they were not as mournful as before, and it was a kind of consolation after all.

After the ceremony was over, Liu Si hurried back from the capital when the last handful of loess fell on the grave.

After another burst of sighing and sadness, when everyone left, Shen Lingxi was the only one left in front of the grave. Liu Si corrected his expression, glanced at the magpie, and said to Shen Lingxi: "Girl, go back home, I think of something, or related to my death."

"Four months ago, I was on duty in the warehouse. The second master was ordered by the ancestors to take a round fan given by the emperor. The round fan was packed in a brocade box. The box was dropped. Who would have thought that what fell out of the box was not a fan, but a cut embroidered handkerchief. I thought it was a mistake, so I wanted to look through the warehouse list, but the second master said nothing. Wrong, this is what I want, so I put the embroidered handkerchief in a brocade box and took it away."

Magpie's pupils dilated slightly, his back straightened, and he tried his best to maintain a calm face.

But Shen Lingxi's expression changed.

"What kind of embroidered handkerchief? What is embroidered on it, have you seen it?" The tone was rare and eager.

Liu Si recalled, "It seems to be cut from something, only a palm-sized piece, with a white background, and landscapes embroidered on it."

He paused, then added, "By the way, the two sides are different, one side is a mountain, and the other side is water."

Shen Lingxi silently clenched her palms tightly.

She is too familiar with this embroidery picture.

The old man of the Shen family had one, but the Xuanpinghou's mansion also had one.

I don't know if the Xuanpinghou's mansion is the same as the one lost by the Shen family...

Seeing that she was silent, Liu Si continued: "At that time, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was wrong. After all, this thing did not match the list on the warehouse. If the master blamed it, it would be no small matter. Tell Ah Feng that when she combs her hair, find an opportunity to talk to her ancestors."

"Ah Feng has the best relationship with Magpie. She didn't make the premise with her ancestors. Instead, she asked Magpie for advice. Magpie comforted her and then pressed the matter down."

Speaking of this, he raised his eyes to look at Magpie again, and asked, "Magpie, do you think it was because of this that you wanted to kill me? Is your concubine the second master?"

"Bah! You're talking nonsense!" Magpie spat at him sternly, pretending to be stupid, "What kind of fan and embroidered handkerchief, is your brain broken after you die? I don't understand what you're talking about at all, and I don't remember at all. .You don't talk nonsense here, I and the second master are innocent, you don't want to destroy my reputation!"

After all, this tone was much weaker than when Shen Lingxi said that she had an affair with Shen Ji.

I didn't even jump in anger.

To deny too quickly is to admit in disguise.

For a whole day, Shen Lingxi finally looked at her.

Shen Lingxi endured it, but she still couldn't hold it back. For the first time, she sarcastically said to a dead soul: "You have lost all your brains, so what do you want to do?"

Magpie: "The dead are the greatest, Shen Lingxi, you are not afraid of being punished by heaven."

"You are not afraid, so why should I be afraid?" Shen Lingxi sneered, "When I go back to the house and find out about the second master Shen, how much you protect today will be how much you will hate in the future, this is the real punishment from God .”

After all, I ignored her and said to Liu Si: "Please go back and stare at Master Shen Er to find out the whereabouts of that embroidered handkerchief. After I have buried Yaoniang, and there is a result from Dali Temple, I will go back to you." The government joins you."

Liu Sichao bowed to her, "Ah Feng and the others, please leave the girl."
