Chapter 29 Death by Poisoning
Li Ruoxian walked in front and led Yan Xingchen to the mourning hall. Cui's body was parked in the mourning hall with the white cloth fluttering.

Yan Xingchen asked: "Xianxian, are you the only one in your family?"

Li Ruoxian turned her head, then looked around and said, "My maid, Qiuyue, is probably in the lobby. As for the others, I don't fit in well, so no one wants to talk to me."

Thinking of Li Ruoxian having a younger brother, Yan Xingchen asked, "Where is my younger brother?"

"I'm studying at Hanlin Academy, and I'm staying at the academy. I'm usually not at home. If I count the time, I should be back." Li Ruoxian said.

Sure enough, as soon as Li Ruoxian finished speaking, he heard a clear voice, "Sister." Yan Xingchen and Li Ruoxian looked towards the door at the same time, only to see a young man in blue-purple college uniform appearing in sight.

The man is half a head taller than Li Ruoxian, with a childish face that is quite similar to Li Xianxian. His face is full of childishness. When he smiles, he shows two canine teeth, and his eyes are big and bright. Big boy feeling.

"Zhixuan, you're back." Li Ruoxian loved this younger brother even more, and saw the blue figure flying towards Li Xianxian and giving him a bear hug.

This feeling... Yan Xingchen touched his nose, and suddenly became envious of Li Zhixuan, and he really wanted to give Li Ruoxian a hug.

In his previous life, he died young and did not marry a wife and have children. This is the greatest regret in his life. It seems that he came to this world because he was abused and ended up with no future...

It is said that peony flowers die, and being a ghost is also romantic. When he saw Li Ruoxian's stunning appearance, his first thought was to be friends with a beauty like her.

"Sister misses you so much. My mother's old illness has relapsed. What's going on? When I came back last month, my mother was well. Why did she relapse from her old illness and passed away?" Li Zhixuan said a little anxiously.

It wasn't until he let go of Li Ruoxian that Li Zhixuan realized that there was a man standing beside him. This man was handsome, his eyes were like stars, and his temperament was extraordinary. Li Zhixuan looked a little bored. Who is this man? !

His eyes fell on Li Ruoxian involuntarily, and then he smiled wickedly, "Sister, this must be my brother-in-law!"

Li Ruoxian's face turned red immediately, and she quickly shook her head, "That's not true, his name is Passerby."

Yan Xingchen's face darkened, she could say she was not familiar with him, why did she name him indiscriminately!
"My lord, my surname is Yan, and my name is Xingchen." Yan Xingchen introduced himself on the spot, and couldn't help but smile.

"My name is Li Zhixuan. I don't know why Mr. Yan is with my sister?" Li Zhixuan looked at Yan Xingchen as he looked at his brother-in-law.

"Investigate the case." Yan Xingchen stated his purpose very simply and clearly.

"Great, I'm also curious about my mother's sudden death." Li Zhixuan immediately stood on the same front as Yan Xingchen.

The three of them walked towards the mourning hall together. The mourning hall revealed the gloomy atmosphere, and Qiuyue, who was burning the coins inside, couldn't help shaking.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Qiuyue turned her head tremblingly, her body stiffened, as if she would bump into a ghost when she turned her head.

"Qiuyue, what's the matter with you?" Seeing Qiuyue's pale face, Li Xianxian hurried to Qiuyue's side, reassuring after making sure she was just nervous.

Only then did Qiuyue breathe a sigh of relief, and saluted, "Eldest Miss, Second Young Master."

Yan Xingchen and Li Zhixuan had already bypassed the spiritual seat, came to the nanmu coffin at the back, and slowly pushed open the coffin lid. A puff of black smoke slowly floated out of it, slowly condensed in the sky, and finally turned into a black ghost.

Yan Xingchen's eyes darkened, and the black mist drifted away slowly, because only he is a ghost who can see the same kind, and others can't. Li Zhixian just looked at his mother's peaceful face and began to sob, tears falling drop by drop .

Li Ruoxian also came over and looked at Yan Xingchen calmly, then nodded and said, "This is my mother's body. I don't want anyone to touch her later. Tell me where you want to check, and I'll do it."

Yan Xingchen nodded, thinking to himself: I don't want to touch someone dead, it's best if you come.

So Yan Xingchen said: "People usually start to stiffen within an hour after death, and the whole body will become stiff after an hour. After that, the stiffness will continue for three hours, then soften, and return to its original shape after about six hours."

Li Ruoxian began to touch Cui's arm, nodded after confirming that it had softened, "It has softened, it seems that the time of death was two days ago, when the old disease relapsed."

Li Zhixuan just stood aside and watched, and didn't mean to interrupt.

And Qiuyue at the door was still burning papers all over her body stiffly, mumbling in her mouth: "Namo Amitabha Buddha".
