Chapter 38

Hearing this, Guo family and Cui family Song Shirou also looked at Song Shiyun.

Song Shiyun said quietly: "It is indeed her."

After speaking, she took out the soul-binding talisman and flicked it with her fingertips.

Everyone saw a figure falling into the open space in the center of the house.

Everyone looked over at once and saw that it was a little girl.

The appearance is exactly the same as what Song Shiyun just described.

She lay on the ground, baring her teeth at everyone in a feigned manner, but then quietly curled up into a ball.

Everyone was shocked when they saw her.

"This, this is..." Guo pointed at her, unable to say a complete sentence.

Song Shiyun looked at Lin Miao'er and asked, "Is it her that Miss Miao'er has seen?"

Lin Miao'er took a closer look, and her already pale face became even paler, "Yes, it's her! She, why is she here?"

Song Shiyun asked: "Have you ever seen Miss Miaoer in the days before she had the nightmare?"

Lin Miao'er shrank into the bed, wishing she could wrap herself up into a silkworm chrysalis. When she heard this, she was stunned and shook her head quickly, "No, no..."

Seeing that she was too scared to speak, Song Shiyun comforted her: "Don't be afraid, Miss Miao'er. She won't hurt you now. We are all watching here. I am asking you this now because I want to resolve this matter as soon as possible. So that Miss Miaoer can sit back and relax."

When Lin Miaoer heard this, she still looked at the little girl with some fear.

The little girl on the ground also curled up into a ball at this time, with a fierce look on her face and an angry look, but if she looked closely, she was clearly scared to the core.

Seeing her like this, Lin Miaoer felt a little more relaxed and whispered: "I, I really haven't seen her before..."

Seeing that she was a little relaxed, Song Shiyun sat down by the bed and said warmly, "Have you ever been to any waterside in the past few days?"

Lin Miaoer thought blankly: "By the water?"

Song Shiyun hummed, "Yes?"

Lin Miao'er was stunned for a while, then suddenly nodded wildly, "Yes, yes!"

When Cui heard this, she asked angrily: "Miao'er, when have you been to the waterside?"

When Lin Miao'er heard this, she shrank her neck and said a little hesitantly: "At seven o'clock in Princess Shiyu's first year, when we went to the Huangjue Temple on the outskirts of the city to burn incense and pray for blessings, I secretly ran down the mountain to play, yes, yes I went to the river once..."

When Cui and Guo thought about this, they didn't know what to say for a moment.

They had no idea that such a thing existed.

When Princess Shiyu was in her seventh year, all the prominent families in Beijing sent representatives to the palace to pray for blessings and observe filial piety.

Most of the remaining female relatives went to temples on the outskirts of the city to pray for Princess Shiyu.

Mrs. Cui entered the palace at that time, and Mrs. Guo took Lin Miao'er and other female relatives of the eldest family to Huangjue Temple to pray for blessings.

But I didn't expect that so many branches would arise.

Mrs. Guo then thought about it, Lin Miaoer started to feel sick and felt unwell, it was indeed after returning from Huangjue Temple.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Guo looked at Song Shiyun hurriedly, "Second Miss, what does my Miao'er's illness have to do with the river?"

Song Shiyun glanced at the little girl on the ground and said, "She is a water ghost. If I guessed correctly, her body should have been buried in the river, the same river that Miss Miao'er was near."

After finishing speaking, Song Shiyun looked at Lin Miao'er again.

"Miss Miao'er, were you just standing by the river, or did you touch the water, or did you do something else?"

Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Cui stared at Lin Miaoer eagerly.

Lin Miaoer hesitated for a moment and said, "I, I was just by the river at first..."

Lin Miaoer went there with other sisters.

It was still winter at that time.

The wind was so strong that it hurt people's faces.

When Lin Miaoer covered her face with a handkerchief, the handkerchief was blown into the river by the wind.

But just on the river bank, I encountered some water source slightly.

Not completely immersed in the river water.

Without waiting for the maid, she went over by herself and wanted to ask the veil to pick it up.

But suddenly a gust of evil wind came, which confused her eyes. She didn't pay attention and accidentally fell into the river.

Song Shiyun heard what she said and asked again: "At that time, was there anything strange in the river?"

Lin Miao'er recalled: "I, I remember...I put one hand in the water. The water was so cold that I seemed to have touched something, something cool, like water plants..." But she didn't wait for her reaction. What was that thing coming over? The maid who came with her rushed over and hurriedly helped her up from the river.

When Song Shiyun heard this, his voice sank, "That's not a waterweed, it's her hair."

Who is she that Song Shiyun is referring to.

Everyone else in the room knew it.

Everyone couldn't help but feel a thump in their hearts.

"She, how could she die in that river..." Lin Miaoer's eyes widened, "I, I, we were by the river at the time and we didn't see any bodies..."

Song Shiyun explained: "The corpse should not be floating on the shore. It should be sunk at the bottom of the river. Otherwise, it would have been discovered long ago. What Miss Miao'er encountered at that time was just an appearance. Some people died accidentally. After death, people's souls will be bound to their own place of death. Only by finding a suitable living person to be their scapegoat and die in the same way as themselves can they be freed. What Miss Miao'er met at that time should be This situation."

Ms. Cui was almost in tears, "How could our Miao'er encounter such a thing!"

Song Shiyun pondered for a few seconds and said, "Is Miss Miao'er's birth date biased towards the negative side?"

When Mrs. Guo heard this, she nodded repeatedly, "Yes! Miao'er's horoscope is a bit yin..."

Believe it or not, after a child is born, he usually calculates his horoscopes to pray for peace and good luck.

The bigger the family in Beijing, the more they care about this.

The Marquis of Xichang didn't believe this, but privately, they couldn't help but calculate the horoscopes for their children.

Not long after Lin Miao'er was born, her parents took her horoscope to a master for calculation.

It is said that this child has a weak horoscope, so be careful and keep her away from cemeteries and mourning halls.

But after so long, Lin Miao'er is now a teenager, and her family has gradually forgotten about this incident.

Besides, the last time Guo took her to was Huangjue Temple, which was a royal temple and a Buddhist holy land.

No one thought that something would happen to Lin Miaoer in a place like that!

Guo really wanted to say something, but couldn't, so she sighed angrily.

"Miss Miaoer has a weak horoscope, so she is easily targeted by ghosts and is easily dragged into being a scapegoat. But it is a 'fate' that she met this little girl."

Song Shiyun continued: "Although you certainly don't think this is fate, it is indeed the fate of Miss Miao'er, and Miss Miao'er must break it herself."

When Mrs. Guo heard this, she ignored her discomfort and asked, "How can we get rid of this?"

"She was buried at the bottom of the river, and she was unwilling to leave after her death. It was probably an unjust death. If we find her body, her identity, and allow her to be buried in peace, this matter will be completely resolved."

Song Shiyun glanced at the little girl and said, "If not, the cause and effect of this matter may fall on Miss Miao'er, which will be detrimental to her."

When Guo and Cui heard this, they looked at each other.

Ms. Cui said eagerly: "Then, what should we do now?"

Song Shiyun pondered for a moment and said: "Let's report it to the officials first. Take the officials and go exhume the bodies. If the officials intervene, the investigation will be much faster."

Guo nodded repeatedly, "This is a good idea, then I will have someone report it to the official now!"

Cui urged: "Go quickly!"

Mrs. Guo responded, turned around and went out, instructing her servants to report to the official.

Seeing this, Song Shiyun said loudly: "Tell the government that a body was accidentally found by the river. Don't say that the ghost was discovered first."

"I understand."

Guo's voice came from outside, and then he gave some instructions to the servants outside.

Seeing this, Song Shiyun took the little girl away first, "Her soul is incomplete and she can't even remember who she is. Now she can only hope that the Marquis of Xichang can help. It's better to save someone's life than to save someone." The seven-level pagoda is also a good thing."

Mrs. Cui was only worried about Lin Miao'er's words, but after hearing Song Shiyun's words, she nodded, "Yes, it is our Marquis's responsibility to do good deeds and accumulate virtue."

When Song Shiyun heard this, he said nothing more.

After a while, people from the government came, and Guo took people with them to identify him.

This matter should have been Lin Miao'er's fault, but Lin Miao'er is now weak and naturally cannot go.

Guo could only lie and claim that she was present at the time, so she led the government officials there to search for the body.

Song Shiyun left a prescription and asked people from the Xichang Hou Mansion to take the medicine and give it to Lin Miaoer. After taking it for three days in a row, she would be fine.

Immediately, she found an excuse and went with Guo.

Song Shirou saw that she was going, so she followed her.

Taifu Liu knew that Song Shiyun was going there, so he followed him.

Suddenly they turned into a group of people and rushed towards the foot of Huangjue Temple.
