After my rebirth, I was the most favored person in Beijing

Chen wanted to save Lin Xi's face in front of Old Lady Chen, but she didn't want to hit her. She was not someone who was easy to mess with.

"Since sister-in-law said so." Lin Xi deliberately called her that just to make her uncomfortable, "Sister-in-law, since Chen Xun has married me, our marriage has been reported to the emperor, so what if he married that person?"

Lin Xi had a smile on her face, but what she said left Chen speechless. Yes, their marriage had been reported to the emperor. Could it be possible that Chen Xun would divorce Lin Xi because of someone outside?

This is a slap in the face of the Queen.

But Chen was still very angry. Why did this marriage fall on Chen Xun?

She just wanted to cause unrest between the couple.

When she thought of this, she did not answer her directly, so she said to the old lady, "Old lady, come to think of it, don't you want to arrange some capable people for your sister-in-law? I have already arranged a daughter-in-law."

Having said that, she let the person in directly without noticing the expression on Old Lady Chen's face.

Lin Xi saw all of this. She didn't expect that Chen was so short-sighted that she could actually squeeze someone into her yard like this.

Over the old lady?

How dare she?

Even if the old lady sitting in front of him is not Chen Xun's biological mother, he still has to show respect to her as his mother in name only.

The current emperor follows filial piety, and it is natural for the people below to follow as well.

How could Chen actually offend the old lady in order to control herself?

Hearing Lin Xi say these words to him, he felt indescribable in his heart, but the thing had already been done, and there was no room for regret now. He could only continue to do it.

"What else do you want to say now?" Lin Xi asked him again.

Perhaps, in her heart, she still had a little expectation towards Chen Xun. If he could tell her the truth, then she could gradually forget about the wedding.

However, Chen Xun did not say anything directly to her. He just put down the cup in his hand and said to Lin Xi solemnly: "I'm sorry, Lin Xi, on the day of the wedding, I didn't care about your face. I won't do it again in the future."

Lin Xi didn't want to hear such an apology, such words, but now he said it to her.

How could she possibly believe it?

"Is that all you have to say?" Lin Xi concealed her emotions and smiled faintly at him: "Since that's all you have to say, then Chen Xun should go change your clothes!"

Chen Xun always felt that Lin Xi had changed towards him, but he couldn't tell what had changed. Now that he had done things to this point, there was no turning back.

Chen Xun went to change his clothes, but he kept thinking about Lin Xi's expression, trying to find the slightest difference, but he felt that there was nothing unusual.

The person next to him looked at Chen Xun's absent-minded appearance and said in a persuasive tone: "What exactly do you want to do?"

"They said that if you want the truth, you have to pay a price. But if you tell Miss Lin everything, aren't you afraid that she will become estranged from you?" Shen Zhuang has never been a person who tells lies. Seeing the current situation, he bluntly pointed out his current situation.

"Besides, how can you know that Miss Lin will not stand on your side if she knows these things?"

But Chen Xun had a stubborn personality, so how could he possibly listen to Shen Zhuang's words? Now that things had come to this point, there were many things that even he himself didn't know how to control.

In the past, he felt that he could do anything, but after meeting Lin Xi, his thoughts changed.

"Mr. Shen, you must keep this a secret for me." Chen Xun still didn't want to tell Lin Xi all these dirty things and let her know, but people in the mansion were afraid that they would not respect Lin Xi very much because of what happened that day.

When he thought of this, he said, "Help me think of a way to let everyone know that Lin Xi is the most distinguished person in this mansion."

"You don't have to think about it. The Queen has already taken action." Shen Zhuang said indifferently, rolled his eyes at him and then complained: "Just do it! Sooner or later, you will make people lose their minds."

Chen Xun's heart twitched when he heard Shen Zhuang's words.

The bright moonlight fell in the yard, and there were cicadas and birds chirping on the branches.

Lin Xi writes about two different types of people from the perspective of the small-time female protagonist and the big-time male protagonist. When faced with the turbulence of the times, they face the crisis together. It is also a group portrait, showing the wonderful aspects of different characters in their lives.

Someone died in Nishimura again.

It was noon, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, and when looking inside the village from outside, there was a layer of mist.

A carriage stopped at the entrance of the village. The coachman tilted his head, his expression gloomy and as if he had something to hide, and asked the person inside, "Girl, are you sure this is the place?"

It was strange for a young girl to come to a place where people were dying one after another.

After saying this, the young girl in the carriage got off. She was holding the box in her hand and nodded and said, "Yes."

The groom raised his head and saw a petite girl with bright eyes and white teeth. She was wearing a blue long coat and a crabapple flower pinned on her temples. She exuded a simple elegance, but the determination in her eyes made people unable to look away.

The groom pointed at the intersection and said, "This place is weird, girl, what can you do here?"

A gloomy wind blew from the West Village, and a faint fragrance wafted out from the box in her hand.

The groom had never smelled such a smell before, and was even a little addicted to it. His eyes unconsciously looked towards the box again and again.

"Rescue."

The groom just thought she was joking. Since ancient times, there has never been such a young girl saving people. He didn't take her words to heart at all.

Xie Ruan raised his eyes, his eyes were heavy, and he took out a few more strings of copper coins from the silver bag and said, "Thank you. Please help me find a way to the Song family."

The groom was stunned, his hands paused, his eyes widened, wondering if he had heard wrongly, and asked in disbelief: "Girl, you said...the Song family?"

"Ah."

The groom's hand trembled as he took the copper coin, and the coin immediately rolled to the ground. He stepped back repeatedly, his face turning pale: "The Song family was wiped out three months ago. What are you doing in the Song family, girl?"

Xie Ruan looked at his expression, frowned slightly, and asked, "Destroy the whole family?"

"Mr. Song and his entire family died in a mysterious fire."

"Only Mr. Song's engaged youngest daughter survived, but she became insane and always spoke nonsense. The family that was engaged to her canceled the marriage. The villagers thought she was crazy and were worried about her. They wanted to send her to a charity institution, but they didn't expect Miss Song to disappear."

"That is, after the incident at the Song Mansion, two or three brides died in Xicun. These brides were all the same age as the eldest daughter of the Song family."

Xie Ruan's eyes were heavy: "Since the whole family was wiped out, then where is the murderer?"

The groom shook his head: "This is the government's business. What's more, some people say that Old Master Song doesn't want to live anymore and wants to take his family to die."

"The Song Mansion is weird. If what you want to do is not important, you'd better not go!"

"Thank you." Xie Ruan didn't say anything, carrying the box and heading into the small path of West Village.

The old master of the Song Mansion was once the prince's tutor, a first-rank official, and he himself was a great scholar. Now there are many of his students in the court. The surname Song is also a family surname in Suiyang County, with a high status. Later, because of the involvement of the deposed prince, although he moved to Xicun, His Majesty specially granted the title of Anbohou to the old master Song to appease the people.

Old Master Song once saved her life, so after receiving the letter from him, she hurried back from southern Xinjiang.

How could a person who wrote a book asking her to come back for treatment commit suicide?

The road to the Song Mansion was more difficult to navigate than she had imagined. What Xie Ruan did not expect was that there were Jinyiwei people standing at the gate of the Song Mansion. She paused, pursed her lips, and clenched her hands slightly.

The Jinyiwei had never imagined that a young girl would appear in such a gloomy place.

She is still a woman with good looks.

Xie Ruan felt several gazes, and he walked slowly and firmly. He glanced at the corpse on the ground with his almond-shaped eyes, and walked past calmly with a serious expression and his clothes fluttering in the wind.

"Stop. Who is it?"

The first person to speak was the Jinyiwei who had been staring at her.

"Your Excellency, I am here to investigate a case at the Song Residence." Xie Ruan happened to stop at the steps at the entrance of the Song Residence. Her thin body was as straight as a bamboo. She opened her red lips and said softly, "Save someone."

The Song Mansion is now in ruins, overgrown with weeds and no trace of its once prosperous population remains.

"Investigating a case?" The Jinyiwei's mouth twitched slightly, with mockery in his eyes.

"Yes, investigating the case."

The Jinyiwei looked her up and down. This girl had a fair complexion and didn't look like someone who would roll around among a pile of dead bodies, so how could she have the skills to perform an autopsy?

Relying on his good looks, he looked at them and tried to deceive them.

He shook his head. How could he be so brazen?

"Are you crazy? Are you here to make trouble? Go away! If you continue to interfere with our investigation, I will take you to jail."

Tell lies without even a good excuse.

The Jinyiwei couldn't help but roll his eyes and motioned the person next to him to go in.

Xie Ruan stood under the eaves, the sunlight cast a shadow under her long curly eyelashes, "I want to see Shen You."

"How dare you." The Jinyiwei drew the sword from his waist, the blade emitting a cold bluish-white light, "You can call the lord by his name."

He took a few steps towards Xie Ruan, his sword almost reaching her neck.

"My last name is Xie. Please pass me on."

The Jinyiwei looked at her, motionless under the hilt of the sword, with some surprise.

Xie is a common surname.

Moreover, she was so calm even when she addressed the master by his name. He was worried that someone who should not be offended had come. He said to her, "You just wait here. I will go in and report to the master first."

Not long after, the man asked her to come in.

The Song Mansion has become a ruin. When you step into the courtyard, you can still smell the smell of cigarette ash left by the fire a few months ago.

Xie Ruan looked at the corpse placed in the yard. There were bruises on the corners of his lips and forehead. His body was covered with a cloth, so the rest of his body could not be seen clearly. Then his eyes fell on the man in front of him.

He had a high nose bridge, sharp cheeks, and a red mole in the middle of his eyebrows, which made him look distant and aloof. His eyes were deep and sinister, making people dare not ignore him. He was wearing an indigo-colored shirt with thunder and cloud patterns. He looked at her and casually threw the handkerchief he was using to wipe his hands on the ground.

Xie Ruan could tell that the handkerchief was a piece of Shu brocade worth a fortune.

"You said, can you solve the case?" Shen You looked at her gloomily, rubbing the crystal clear ring with his right hand.

"Yes."

"lie."

Shen You lowered his eyes and looked at Xie Ruan in front of him, his expression was calm. He approached her step by step, and grasped her fair and slender neck with his broad hands. He said in a very calm voice: "In my case, lying will kill you."

Xie Ruan's eyes were solemn and she frowned as she said, "The deceased at the door was eighteen years old, a female. There were obvious marks on her neck behind her ears. She was strangled to death. The marks on her forehead and the corners of her mouth were caused by her struggle. Judging from the color of the body, she must have died yesterday afternoon. It should have been ten hours since then."

Shen You was surprised and blew down his eyelids. His bony fingers loosened slightly, giving her a chance to catch her breath.

"Sir, can you let me take a closer look? If I can't see anything, or if I'm lying, you can kill me."

Seeing that Shen You had no intention of giving in, Xie Ruan continued, "The silk that the deceased was wearing came from the Southern Silk Supply House, and there are not many households in the capital that can use it."

"After a brief elimination, the only ones left are Marquis Yanbo in the south of the city, Marquis Guanxi in the east of the city, and Marquis Zhenbei. Among these families, the only legitimate daughter of Marquis Zhenbei was the one who left last night."

Shen You stared at her and stopped what he was doing.

A faint cold wind blew in the courtyard, and even on a sunny day, it made people shiver.

But Shen You in front of him seemed to sneer, looking down at him, and his tone suddenly became cold: "Since when do cats and dogs have the qualifications to negotiate with me?"

"Although this case is not complicated, it involves the reputation of a woman." Xie Ruan looked up at him, trying to make her eyes meet his, "I am the best choice."

After a long silence, Shen You looked at her and turned his head to look at the box in her hand.

When the wind blows, the fragrance in the box spreads everywhere.

His eyes were heavy, and he curled his lips coldly towards her, and said slowly: "It's really interesting."

"Someone is coming."

"exist."

Shen You's most capable subordinate Qingsong appeared in front of them.

"Autopsy."

Shen You opened his thin lips slightly, his eyes cold.

Qingsong asked Xie Ruan, "Miss, do you need to prepare anything for the autopsy?"

Hearing this, Xie Ruan looked calm, his eyes fell deeply on the body on the ground, walked to the body, put down the box, and said softly: "No need."

Qingsong watched Xie Ruan open the box, which contained some autopsy tools that he was unfamiliar with.

He gave her a suspicious look.

The box in her hand was completely opened, and a long and lingering fragrance overflowed.

Even the Jinyiwei standing outside the courtyard could smell it.

The fragrance is very light, but it has an indescribable sense of enchantment.

Xie Ruan The bright moonlight fell in the yard, and there were cicadas and birds chirping on the branches.

"What's the matter?" Lin Xi was not the type to attack others often, but when she saw them attacking the maid around her, she would no longer show mercy.

But she knew that what Chen cared about most was the little power in her hands, and if she wanted to take away this little power completely.

"This Chen is really not a good person." Chunhua was still very excited when she said this. After all, she suddenly knew that the matter had come to this point and there was no room for turning back for many things.

"She took the money from the mansion to give to those people in her family, and also used the money to make private seals. I don't know how many families were ruined because of it."

When Chunhua thought of this, she couldn't help but curse. After all, things had come to this point.

There is no need for them to show mercy to Chen.

"Well, put these evidences away first. We can't take action directly now. If it gets to the point now, many people will say bad things about us. I don't care about the depth of the water in the Chen Mansion, but she can't come to bully my people."

"Now that we have these things in our hands, we already know what to do next." Lin Xi has been staying in the house all this time.

How sad.
