The happy coffin is opened, all ghosts disperse, the princess comes from hell

Dali Temple.

When Xie Shu received the news, the subordinate officer named Chen Ming had already had his teeth knocked out and was sent to the Imperial Hospital by his colleagues.

But the murderer was sitting in his official residence drinking tea in plain sight.

Xie Shu looked calm: "You beat someone and you won't leave?"

Listening to his words, it was obvious that he knew what Chen Ming had done.

Xiao Chenyan said in a cold tone: "Lingci, you'd better explain clearly."

Xie Shu keenly picked up some clues from Xiao Chenyan's words, "What did my mother say?"

"Not yet."

To be precise, there is no chance.

But when the princess made an attack at the flower viewing banquet, although Baisui was not there, it did not mean that Xiao Chenyan had no spies in the East Palace.

Of course, someone clearly reported to him the reaction of Mrs. Dingguo.

The relationship between Xiao Chenyan and this aunt was actually alienated. In the early years when he was the emperor's eldest grandson, the Chu family's attitude towards him was completely different from what he does now.

Although he is polite now, in fact Chu family is secretly unhappy with him.

After all, having too close contact with Prince Yan's Mansion would mean danger.

The Chu family's displeasure with him was due to concerns about Duke Dingguo's palace. Xiao Chenyan could understand it and had not taken it to heart in the past.

But after what happened with Xie Ling last time, and after he knew the inside story about Xie Ling's incident, Chu's reaction today only made him feel ridiculous.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see the Crown Princess's plan, but Mrs. Chu would still fall for it. She is not an ignorant woman, but she can still be influenced, only because she has a problem with Qingwu.

A cold wave surged in Xiao Chenyan's eyes.

If it weren't for her little ghost girl, Xie Ling would have passed away long ago. Not only was she not grateful, but she still held a grudge because she refused her invitation and didn't help him again.

Or maybe it was because Qing Wu knew her long-buried secret.

Although it is not unexpected, it is indeed ironic.

But because of Xie Yun, Xiao Chenyan still reminded: "Xie Shu, have a good talk with your mother. Don't be stubborn about some things."

In the past, the Chu family had twins, a dragon and a phoenix, but killed another child for some reason. After all, it was a private matter of the Dingguo Palace, and Xiao Chenyan could not explain it clearly.

But with Xie Shu's methods and intelligence, if he wanted to investigate, he would definitely be able to find out.

After Xiao Chenyan left, a subordinate came over to ask Xie Shu how to deal with Chen Ming's matter.

"Since he can't control his tongue, then let's get rid of the source of trouble for Mr. Chen."

The subordinate was startled and looked at Xie Shu in astonishment.

Xie Shu looked at the files on the table with his usual expression. He raised his eyes and asked calmly: "What else can I do?"

The subordinate shook his head and swallowed back any words he wanted to plead with.

Those ladies who stay close to home will think that this Master Shaoqing is a banished immortal who came to the world, but they don't know that in addition to his appearance, this gentleman also has a heart as ruthless as an immortal.

His torture skills were unparalleled even by the torturers of the Ministry of Punishment.

In the blink of an eye, Xie Shu arrived at the lower office. After returning home, Xie Shu went straight to the Chu family's courtyard. Without letting the servants pass the news, he walked inside. As soon as he reached the door of the house, he bumped into the maidservant who came out.

The other party was Gui Fang, the Chu family's personal maid. She never thought that Xie Shu was outside, so she was so startled that the things in her hands fell directly to the ground.

Xie Shu saw it and saw some ingots and candles.

His eyes moved slightly, and Guifang was so frightened that she quickly picked up the ingot incense candle and stepped aside: "Young Master, I am rude to you."

Mrs. Chu came out when she heard the commotion, her expression changed slightly when she saw it, and then she smiled: "Why didn't anyone let anyone know that Shu'er was here?"

"My son heard that his mother was frightened today, so he came here to take a look."

"You kid, you don't know how to rest before you go to work." Mrs. Chu said with anger and glanced at Guifang, who quickly bowed and left.

As she spoke, she pulled Xie Shu into the house. After the mother and son chatted for a few words, Mrs. Chu excused herself as tired, and Xie Shu also stood up and left. Neither mother nor son mentioned Qing Wu.

But before leaving, he asked again: "Who are those incense candles and ingots prepared for?"

Mrs. Chu didn't expect that he still remembered this, and she panicked, but she smiled calmly on her face: "Your grandfather's death anniversary is coming soon, so I just asked someone to prepare it in advance."

Xie Shu nodded and asked no more questions, but after coming out of Chu's house, the warmth in his eyes faded.

The mother is lying and doesn't mention Qingnu at all. The more so, the more strange it becomes.

"Go check on Guifang."

Xie Shu looked at the Chu family's courtyard and thought for a long time. All the clues ran through his mind. He had intuitions and guesses.

Will the things my mother hides have anything to do with Lingdi?

While thinking, he vaguely heard a strange laughter.

The laughter sounded like a woman's and a baby's. It only appeared for a moment, as if it was an auditory hallucination.

And the laughter seemed to come from Chu's courtyard.

"Did you hear it?" Xie Shu asked the people around him.

The book boy and the attendant shook their heads blankly: "No, it was very quiet just now."

Xie Shu frowned more and more. Did you hear that wrong?

At this moment, in Chu's house, she opened the closet, took out the small tablet that she had hidden in panic, and threw it aside with disgust.

After taking a few deep breaths, she stepped forward to pick up the tablet and said with a cold face: "From today on, I will have people sacrifice to you every year on your death anniversary. I won't let you be a lonely ghost. If you have Ling, just leave Ling'er and don't harm him again."

"Don't blame me, don't blame me. If you want to hate me, just hate yourself for being born..."

Before Mrs. Chu could finish her words, she heard a bang, and something broke through the window and hit her dressing table, flopping around.

What came in through the window was a sparrow. The sparrow was all wet, as if it had just been fished out of the water.

Mrs. Chu was startled, and immediately called for help. The maids filed in, and the next moment, a scream rose from the ground.

"What's the fuss about?!" Madam Chu said angrily.

The maid who was carrying the dead sparrow said in a trembling voice: "Madam, this sparrow is already dead, its neck has been broken!"

"Nonsense, how can it flutter if it's dead..."

Chu's voice stopped suddenly, because just now, there was a clear scratch in her ear.

There was a sound like bones being broken, and then she saw the sparrow stop flapping, as if an invisible hand twisted the sparrow's head off, and the sparrow's head rolled to her feet.

Chill ran from the soles of my feet to my scalp.

Before she fell into coma, Mrs. Chu vaguely heard a gloomy child's voice:

"Kekeke~ I won't leave~"

"Mother~ dear~"

I hate the palace.

Qing Wu was having dinner with Mu Ying and Wang Yulang. She took a lick of the spoon in her hand, shook her head and said:

"It's your own fault."
