When Xu Zongen heard that he would stay here all night, he began to retreat.

He came here to express his condolences to Aunt Mei and Aunt Mei just to make his father think that he was a filial son.

But if he really guarded these two coffins, he would still feel scared. The thought of something burnt, cold, and dead lying inside made me extremely frightened.

What if the ghosts of Aunt Mei and Aunt Mei are still alive and come out to scare people in the middle of the night?

no! He can't stay here!

"Mother... mother, my son has just been scolded by his father. Now he only feels a headache. He wants to go back and rest early. When he has time tomorrow, he will come back to accompany Aunt Mei and his aunt."

As he spoke, a look of pain appeared on his face, as if he was very sad. How could Lin Qingwu not see this little trick on his part?

But I still endured it without breaking it.

"Then you should go back early and rest. It's enough for Hengpu to stay here with you."

Hearing this, Xu Zongen couldn't hide his joy, thanked him and ran out as if running away.

Xu Hengpu opened the food box and took out the bowl of soothing soup, which he had been staring at for a long time. His mother had been tired all day, so she must have been exhausted.

"Mother, drink it while it's still hot. My son cooked it with his own eyes. All the ingredients are good."

For some reason, Lin Qingwu had a strange feeling in his heart. Although Hengpu was a considerate and filial child in the past, he was a bit abnormal today.

It seems a little too considerate.

This made her feel very uncomfortable. Looking at the bowl of soup, she lost the desire to drink it.

"Let's put it there for now. How have you been studying lately, my child? Have you done well the homework assigned by Master Qin?"

When his mother asked about this, Xu Hengpu straightened his shoulders a little, looking very confident.

"Mother, you know that your son is always the most serious about his homework. In time, he will definitely be on the gold list."

If he said this to others, he would inevitably be called arrogant, but if he said it from Xu Hengpu's mouth, others would only think it was a sign of confidence.

After all, their strength is there, and they do have the capital to say this.

Lin Qingwu stopped talking and closed his eyes in meditation. Presumably Xu Huan and the others were already on the boat at this moment.

However, why do you feel like you have ignored someone?

Qi Zhixuan's name suddenly appeared in his mind...

How could she forget this person?

"Heng Pu! Have you ever seen my uncle at home these days?"

Something flashed through Lin Qingwu's mind, but when he realized it, he couldn't catch it.

On the day of the funeral, the huge funeral procession attracted the attention of the people. On the one hand, people had died one after another in the Wuding Hou Mansion, and there were already rumors that it was because of a ghost in the house.

On the other hand, Wu Dinghou, who has been stationed at the border all year round, has returned to Beijing. This matter has just been learned. Who doesn't know that Wu Dinghou led the troops to quell the palace uprising and made great achievements in battle.

It's just that he hasn't been in Kyoto for many years, and others have gradually forgotten that there is such a heroic figure. If it weren’t for the instability at the border in recent years, Wu Dinghou would have already become a well-known figure in Kyoto!

"Stop! Stop! I want to avenge my daughter! Wu Dinghou! Your son and daughter-in-law killed my daughter! Let your son pay for my daughter's life!"

Suddenly an uncle rushed out from the crowd, holding a machete in his hand and fiercely rushed into the funeral procession. Looking at the knife in his hand, everyone around them stayed away, for fear of harming themselves.

Wu Dinghou frowned, picked up a stone from the ground and hit the troublemaker. He only heard a scream, and the man dropped the knife in his hand, holding his knees and wailing.

"Who is this person? He's so capable that he dares to block the way to the Wuding Hou Mansion!"

Xu Songchi came out of the team. His originally angry face turned pale with fright when he saw the face of the man on the ground clearly. He was about to take advantage of the chaos and sneak away, but he was a step too late. The man had already seen him.

"Xu Songchi! You! You bastard! Give my daughter her life back! Oh my God! Open your eyes and see! My daughter died tragically! But...why is this beast still alive? Oh my God!"

Lin Qingwu just stood quietly, watching more and more people gathering around him, all looking like they were watching a good show.

"Have you heard? After the old man Liu Yong's daughter entered the Wuding Hou Mansion, her body was eaten by wild dogs and then dragged to the street. Many people saw it!"

Aunt Wang was holding a vegetable basket and looking at it while talking.

"Hey! Wife of the Wang family, you can eat randomly but don't talk nonsense! Did you see that the girl from the Liu family was thrown out from the Wuding Hou Mansion? Why are these melon seeds bad? Chen Laoer! I won't go there in the future. You bought it!"

"What if she offended someone and was harmed by her enemy... or her lover? There's no telling!"

A woman with high cheekbones and a thin face next to her echoed.

Lin Qingwu listened quietly, not annoyed, but Xu Songchi couldn't sit still. When had he, the majestic prince, been criticized like this?

"Quick! Why are you still standing there? Why don't you drag this troublemaker down quickly!"

Xu Songchi's words were quite a bit like a dog jumping over the wall. How could he not be afraid? Liu Baoer and his scandals, this Liu Yong knows everything!

If anything happens, then my reputation in Kyoto will be completely ruined!

The attendants in the funeral procession rolled up their sleeves and were about to take action when Wu Dinghou hurriedly stopped them.

"Wait a minute! This old man is very old. He keeps saying that my son has harmed his little daughter. I, the Marquis of Wu Ding, have to explain this matter! Come here! Go and invite Haosheng back to my house. This matter must be done I will give him an explanation!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the servants who had just rolled up their sleeves and had fierce expressions on their faces immediately changed their faces. They looked so slutty that it made people sick.

Seeing that the coffin was covered with shovel after shovel of soil, Wu Dinghou burst into tears and Xu Songchi clenched his fists.

After finishing his chores and preparing to return to the house, Xu Songchi wanted to send someone to quietly take Liu Yong out of the house to deal with it. Unfortunately, the old marquis had an order, and Liu Yong was guarded by several guards, and those guards were still old The Marquis brought it back from the border and did not take bribes at all.

Xu Songchi had no chance to make a move.

Lin Qingwu could see all his anxiety, but the more anxious and panicked he was, the more Lin Qingwu looked forward to the situation he was going to face next.

Seeing that Marquis Wu Ding was about to return home, Xu Songchi hurriedly ran to him and said: "Dad...Dad, why don't we go to the restaurant to buy some food first? Qingwu must be hungry too! Let's go back after eating. !”
