Pin Shanhe

Finally, he simply closed his eyes in sorrow.

"It's too late to say anything now!"

The person is already gone, so what's the point of saying all this?

At that moment, the door to the mourning hall suddenly closed by itself without any wind.

A cold wind suddenly rose, stirring the white tassels hanging from the beams.

A slight tremor suddenly came from the coffin behind them, and the white candles in the hall also flickered twice.

Seeing this scene, Jun Anning's heart trembled.

What's going on?

Could it be that Sister Shen has appeared to us?

She's usually terrified of ghosts, but if it's Shen Fu, then that's a different story.

She rushed towards the coffin, buried her face in the lid, and burst into tears.

"Sister Shen, you came back because you heard about your true origins and you have something to worry about, right?"

"If you really do appear, tell us who killed you, and we will definitely avenge you."

She was crying her heart out, oblivious to the fact that the coffin lid was desperately trying to be pushed open, but because of her body weight pressing down on it, it couldn't be opened no matter what she did.

Finally, a muffled cry for help came from inside.

"Help! I'm suffocating!"

Jun Anning was stunned.

The others were also stunned.

The person inside the coffin could actually talk?

Could it be... that Shen Fu is not dead?!

Chu Lingyu and Jun Jingyan were the first to react and rushed forward.

One person helped Jun Anning down, while the other pushed open the coffin lid with a single palm strike.

Only Xiao Xuanjin walked steadily and slowly, showing no sign of anxiety.

The moment the lid was opened, the person inside finally sat up and took deep breaths of fresh air.

The people around were stunned!

"Why is it you?"

They never expected that the person in the coffin was not Shen Fu.

But...

It took Yun Dai a long time to catch her breath.

Waaah... Playing dead is no fun at all, I almost lost my life!

Jun Jingyan was startled and quickly asked, "Yun'er, why are you here?"

Yun Dai glared at the man who had "arrived late," her expression full of resentment.

They followed her gaze and finally looked at the figure in black.

The other person's tone, however, was somewhat nonchalant.

"Didn't we leave you a gap?"

"Well……"

She was so engrossed in listening to Chu Lingyu recount Shen Fu's background that she forgot she was still in the coffin. She sat up abruptly in excitement, only to bump her head on the coffin lid.

In her pain, she accidentally pushed the lid up again.

In an instant, the heavy coffin closed completely, and the only sliver of light overhead disappeared.

She knew it was over!

Soon, the air became thin, and breathing became increasingly difficult.

In desperation, she could only desperately pound on the coffin for help.

Fortunately, the "rescue" was timely, otherwise she would have suffocated to death.

She almost lost her life because of all the gossip; she's probably the first person in history to do that.

Jun Anning snapped out of her shock and quickly asked, "Sister Yun, what were you doing in the coffin? Where's Sister Shen?"

Before Yun Dai could speak, a voice came from behind: "I'm here!"

When they saw the figure that walked out, they couldn't believe their eyes.

Jun Anning, in particular, was overwhelmed with shock, astonishment, surprise, and excitement, with a hint of fear in her voice.

Is this... a zombie rising from the dead in broad daylight?

But she still tried her best to overcome her fear, rushed over and hugged Shen Fu tightly, crying uncontrollably.

"We promised to be best friends for life, how could you just leave us like this?"

A helpless voice came from beside me: "Who said I was leaving?"

Jun Anning took it as her trying to comfort herself and cried even louder.

"Didn't you ask the King of Hell for leave to come back and visit him?"

In the end, Yun Dai couldn't stand it anymore and grabbed her hand, placing it on Shen Fu's hand.

"Are you sure a dead person can have that kind of temperature?"

"..."

Jun Anning's stagnant mind began to slowly start working again.

A dead person should be cold and stiff, but Sister Shen's hands were incredibly warm.

What does this tell us?

"You're not dead?"

When Chu Lingyu discovered that the person in the coffin was not Shen Fu, he had already guessed the general idea.

Seeing him in person again was naturally a huge surprise and I was incredibly excited.

Besides that, there was a hint of life.

Why did you fake your death?

When news of Princess Xuan's death reached the East Suburb Post Station, he felt as if the sky were about to fall.

They didn't even have time to prepare their horses, and flew over using their light-footed skills.

Seeing the memorial tablets and coffins in the mourning hall was even more heartbreaking and overwhelming.

In the end, it was all a lie?

It's outrageous that they would joke about something like this!

Shen Fu stared at him and said, "If we don't do this, how can we get you to show yourself and tell the truth?"

Chu Lingyu was stunned, and then belatedly realized what was happening.

This was actually a trap set by the other party!

Jun Anning was still in a daze, but Jun Jingyan had already figured out the whole story.

He had also felt something was strange before; the Crown Prince of Dongyue had treated Shen Fu very differently from the very first time he appeared.

After learning the truth, all his previous incomprehensible behavior became reasonable.

There can be more than just romantic love between men and women; there can also be familial love!

Just like the brother-sister relationship between him and Jun Anning!

But this truth was something they could not have imagined.

Not to mention him, even Shen Fu, the person involved, couldn't have imagined it.

She even misunderstood Chu Lingyu's concern at first, mistaking it for romantic feelings, and tried to test him several times.

The result was a huge joke!

Shen Fu finally explained the whole story.

This plan was decided on short notice.

However, the initial purpose of the scheme was not entirely for Chu Lingyu, but to draw out the mastermind behind the scenes.

That day, she learned the secret of her origins from the Bai family, mother and daughter, at the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion.

Although she didn't believe it at the time, a lingering doubt remained in her mind.

Later, Bai Shi and Xu Ruoyan died, and their deaths were so tragic, clearly caused by someone seeking revenge.

Who would have a grudge against them?

Her intuition told her that this matter was related to her!

Just then, Xiao Xuanjin discovered that the coachman had been replaced, and the new coachman was clearly a disguised assassin.

In order to uncover the real culprit, they devised this plan.

On that day, Xiao Xuanjin received an urgent order from the imperial court and left ahead of schedule, while Shen Fu returned to the Xuanwang Mansion alone.

In fact, from the moment she stepped out of the mansion, she was no longer the real her, but Xiao Xuanjin's secret guard in disguise.

Just as the carriage plunged off the cliff, the guards rushed out and grabbed onto the vines on the cliff face, successfully escaping.

Only by making the killer believe she is really dead can she lower her guard and reveal her true colors.

As a result, they actually managed to swindle out two "suspicious" individuals.

One is Jun Qiyuan, and the other is the Crown Prince of Dongyue standing before us!
