After the rebirth, the princess became the richest man

Chapter 167 Retribution
"Sister, I know your feelings for her, but if you are wrong, you are wrong. Even if the Pei family comes to find an explanation, it is her fault. Just pay her money and bury her richly."

Lin Qingyue knew that what she said was feeble, how could Lin Xia be reconciled?But she had to say it.

"Although the Son of Heaven breaks the law, she may not be able to commit the same crimes as the common people, but she made a mistake, so why should children just watch?"

Lin Xia was silent for a while, wiped away her tears with her sleeves, and then stood up.

"You're right, some sins that deserve atonement can still be atoned for."

After saying that, she got up and left.

Seeing Lin Xia's thin figure drifting away, Lin Qingyue couldn't help but sighed, but couldn't say anything.

Lin Qingyue originally wanted to go back to Yilian Courtyard, but when she was halfway there, she suddenly felt something was wrong.

Did a sudden fire really burn something as big as a coffin without knowing it?
There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!
She turned to Pei Xiashu's mourning hall.

The place that had been burned by the fire left a pitch-black mass, but fortunately, the servants were neat and tidy, and they had already cleaned up half of it. Seeing Lin Qingyue coming in, they saluted one after another.

Lin Qingyue excused them from the ceremony and let them do their own thing, wandering around in the mourning hall by herself.

It's just that she found something unusual in the place where the coffin was originally placed.

She immediately squatted down to inspect, and saw that there seemed to be some small yellowish waxy or transparent particles on the place where Pei Xiashu's coffin was originally placed.

She didn't know what it was, but she knew it was not easy, so she quietly twisted it with her fingers to hide it.

"Go ahead and clean up."

After exhorting, she left.

At this time, it was almost dawn, Lin Qingyue wrapped the things in cloth, turned around and handed them to Qiu Ju, wanting her to make another trip.

Qiu Ju took the things, but hesitated all the time, Lin Qingyue was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

"Young master...Young master has been suspended for investigation." Qiu Ju reported truthfully.

Lin Qingyue's heart trembled: "How could this happen?"

"The slave does not know."

Qiu Ju, a servant, heard this kind of thing and shouldn't have taken it to heart, how could she dare to ask why?
Lin Qingyue took what was in Qiu Ju's hand again, and said, "That's all, I'll send this thing myself."

Lin Qingyue was in her filial piety at this time, so no one could see her running around, she wrapped herself up tightly before going out.

Everyone in Xiao's mansion knew her, and it was very easy for her to enter the mansion. It didn't take long to find Xiao Linze who was drawing with a brush in his study with the window open.

"You are so leisurely, but I don't worry about you for nothing."

Xiao Linze put down the pen in his hand, and beckoned Lin Qingyue to have a look.

"It's because of you that you are so leisurely, take a look."

"You're getting better at talking. What's this called? Sweet talk is about to make me lose my way."

Lin Qingyue entered the room as she spoke, and looked at the table with her head, a bare tree appeared vividly on the paper.

"Peach Blossom Tree?"

Xiao Linze nodded and pointed outward.

"Here, you sent it."

"Am I not pretty enough? Are you going to draw a tree that hasn't bloomed yet?"

Xiao Linze shook his head, quickly changed a piece of paper and drew Lin Qingyue.

"It's my first time drawing portraits, so please forgive me if it doesn't look good."

"So much nonsense." Lin Qingyue sat down Shi Shiran on the side, "I came here to ask you something."

"What's the matter?" Xiao Linze kept writing.

Lin Qingyue took out something from her bosom: "Look what it is."

Xiao Linze stopped writing, picked up the cloth bag and took a look: "It's phosphorus."

"My mother's coffin suddenly caught fire yesterday. I saw it next to her coffin."

When Lin Qingyue said this, she seemed to be talking about someone of no importance, which made Xiao Linze frowned, but he didn't say anything, let alone question her attitude.

He put away the cloth bag, picked up his brush and drew the person in front of him.

"That's intriguing. This phosphorus can spontaneously ignite, so it's clear that someone else put it there."

"No." Lin Qingyue restrained her teasing thoughts, put her hands on the table, and said solemnly, "Why were you suspended by the emperor?"

The emperor favored Xiao Linze, the commander of Feilongwei, it was not something that only two people knew about it, it was something that the whole world knew about, which showed his great favor, this suspension made people have to think about it.

"The name is to bring outsiders into Feilongwei's martial arts arena."

Lin Qingyue straightened up and turned around in the study, remembering that Xiao Linze deliberately took her for a walk in Hongyan Mountain that day, and it was not a bit of a lie, she knew it instantly.

"you do this delibrately?"

Xiao Linze didn't hide it: "This is what I said that day. The emperor was assassinated. I have to find out who betrayed Feilongwei. But I also violated Feilongwei's principles of doing things, so I should be punished."

Seeing Xiao Linze's unruffled look, Lin Qingyue felt at ease, knowing that the matter had not reached a point of no return, and she was afraid it was just a show.

"As long as you know what's in your head, don't lose your position and think that I will support you with a dowry. Then you have to listen to me in everything."

As she spoke, Lin Qingyue blinked playfully.

Xiao Linze shook his head and laughed.

"Whether the wife raises the husband or not, the husband will listen to the wife."

Lin Qingyue smiled and reached out to pinch Xiao Linze's fair cheeks.

"Well, good job."

The two are joking, and they can't be down to business." Two days ago, you asked me to ask Yu Zhi to help find out whether Mrs. Guo was poisoned and died. Now it seems that there is no need to investigate. Her coffin spontaneously ignited, and the murderer was probably trying to destroy the body. Destroy." Xiao Linze helped Lin Qingyue analyze, "If you want to find the culprit, it's easier to find whoever made the most profit, or who the Duke's wife offended before."

"You mean..." Lin Qingyue looked up in shock, "Aunt Wang? Once Pei Xiashu died, she was the only one in Xiao Yu's back house, but she has been serving Pei Xiashu..."

She was startled, and immediately understood the meaning of Xiao Linze's words.

"Is it true that someone can endure humiliation for so many years just to pull someone off the horse? But Aunt Wang only found out that her child was killed by Pei Xiashu this morning before dawn."

"Really?" Xiao Linze stopped writing, and looked straight at Lin Qingyue with a pair of fox eyes.

Lin Qingyue hesitated, but...

"There's another person who hasn't dared to do anything to Pei Xiashu on the surface, but actually hates her." She paused before saying, "Thank you.

Lin Qingyue just felt that this kind of thing was tormenting her head, so she just sat down on the stool beside her, yelling that she didn't want to.

"You still have to be wary of her. If it's really Aunt Wang, she won't let you sisters go." Xiao Linze reminded.

Lin Qingyue nodded, but could it really be Aunt Wang?She couldn't believe it.

What Pei Xiashu did during her lifetime was the anger of both humans and gods, and the Pei family had no reason to come and make trouble. After the Lin family sent the ashes over, they quickly covered up the matter and found a good cemetery to bury her. In the end, she died I couldn't find a home.

Lin Qingyue felt that Pei Xiashu's good and evil will be rewarded, but Lin Xia cried again because of this, but didn't ask for anything more, but would go to Pei Xiashu's tomb to burn paper from time to time, and Quan Zuo acted filial piety to accompany her up.
