After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power
Chapter 198: Justice is Clear
The Shangguan family collapsed unexpectedly, and the cause of the fire soon became a topic of gossip on the streets.
Shangguan Chuan was an old man who took advantage of the young girl and took possession of her, and now he is getting his retribution.
Shangguan Mu was crazy and no one could take charge. In the end, Shangguan Chuan's funeral was held by the Xiao family in the Xiao Mansion.
The Xiao family was at the height of its power, so naturally all the prominent families in the capital came to pay their respects.
Jiang Xue Ning was wearing a colorful dress and had a white flower in her hair. She attracted a lot of people's attention as soon as she entered the room.
After all, there are very few unmarried girls in the boudoir who would come alone to attend such a funeral.
Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but gasp when she saw her face. She quickly suppressed her emotions and said sadly, "Why did the princess come here in person?"
Jiang Xue Ning took two incense sticks and lit them. "I must come to personally see Lord Shangguan off for the last time."
This was a strange thing to say, but with so many people coming and going to pay their respects, Mrs. Xiao said nothing.
Two incense sticks were quickly lit. Jiang Xue Ning walked to the funeral host Shangguan Mu, whose eyes were red and his expression was dazed, and said gently, "Please accept my condolences, Second Young Master..."
It was clearly just an ordinary sentence, but Shangguan Mu just glanced at him and his expression changed immediately.
“Ghost…Ghost…”
He took a step back and knelt heavily on the ground, pointing at her with a trembling finger, "Every grievance has its perpetrator, so stop pestering me."
The sudden change shocked all the mourners.
"I don't understand what the Second Young Master is saying." Jiang Xue Ning bent down to help him up, and a faint fragrance entered Shangguan Mu's nostrils. "I can't accept such a gift. The ground is cold, Second Young Master, you'd better get up quickly."
Shangguan Mu's expression became more and more crazy. With red eyes, he waved her hand away and said, "Go away, stop pestering me."
Jiang Xue Ning took her hand back in shock and looked at him in surprise, "Second Master, did you recognize the wrong person? You mistook me for..."
Although she did not say the name, the mourners present looked at each other and knew it clearly.
She took a step forward and deliberately approached him to look him in the eye, and said in a cold voice, "Second Young Master, please take a closer look. Who am I?"
Shangguan Mu glanced at her and looked into her cold eyes. The fear in his heart suddenly burst out and he went crazy in an instant.
"Ah... Ghost..."
He pulled his hair and banged his head against the wall in agony, as if he had gone mad.
Seeing that things were getting out of control, Madam Xiao said sternly, "Someone, take the second young master down to rest!"
The guards grabbed Shangguan Mu and tried to take him down from the mourning hall. Madam Xiao explained to the guests who came to pay their respects, "Such a big change happened in the family overnight. The child was shocked and lost his mind. Please forgive me."
Jiang Xue Ning responded sympathetically, "Don't be sad, Second Young Master. Evil will be punished in the end."
Shangguan Mu struggled violently, and was about to be carried away by the guards. Suddenly, he spat out a large mouthful of blood with a "puff". He collapsed.
His eyelids drooped with lifeless eyes and he lowered his head, blood oozing out, staining the white mourning clothes red.
Madam Xiao asked sternly, “Mu’er, what’s wrong with you?”
"Call the doctor quickly..."
The entire mourning hall was in chaos. Jiang Xue Ning stepped aside and watched quietly.
Shangguan Mu kept spitting, his eyes rolled up and he became completely silent.
The doctor also arrived, and Madam Xiao said with a stern face, "Come over and take a look at Mu'er."
The doctor went over, flipped his eyelids, felt her pulse, and bowed his head, saying, "Madam, I am sorry for your loss."
Madam Xiao's eyes went dark and she almost fainted. She gritted her teeth and said, "Impossible, he was fine just now, how could he suddenly die!"
Xiao Mufeng, who had not shown up for a long time, suddenly appeared in the mourning hall. His expression was calm and no extra emotions could be seen.
"Please, doctor, take a look and find out the cause of his death."
The doctor carefully felt Shangguan Mu's pulse and wiped the sweat from his forehead, saying, "The second young master died of a sudden heart attack due to excessive fear and blood stasis."
This...the faces of the people present were extremely excited.
They all looked at Jiang Xue Ning secretly. The doctor meant that Shangguan Mu was clearly frightened to death.
As for who scared him, everyone had some idea in their mind.
Xiao Linfeng chuckled, "How interesting, is there something scary in this mourning hall that can scare people to death?"
As he said this, his eyes turned to Jiang Xue Ning who was standing beside him.
Madam Xiao also realized something, but because at least half of the nobles in the capital were present, she ended up saying nothing.
The incense in Jiang Xue Ning's hand was burning just right. Under Xiao Linfeng's slightly cold gaze, she walked to the coffin and inserted the incense into the incense burner.
"Ah, the whole family walked away clean, how pitiful."
As he said this, there was no trace of sadness on his face. Instead, the coldness at the corners of his mouth made people feel cold.
Xiao Linfeng didn't even glance at the dead Shangguan Mu, but said to her, "The princess was close to you just now, so you must have been scared. I will personally escort you out and apologize to you."
The two of them walked out of the mourning hall one after the other, walking out step by step.
Seeing her cold expression, Xiao Linfeng chuckled, "How can he be worthy of this? The princess is here to see him off in person."
Jiang Xue Ning said calmly, "You don't look too sad."
"It's just a waste like that, so what's there to be sad about?" Xiao Linfeng's eyes swept across her face, "But I didn't expect that the princess's face could have such a miraculous effect."
With such a unique face, he wanted to peel it off and make a human skin mask to keep it forever.
Jiang Xue Ning finally turned her head and looked at him, "I'm very curious, what is the most important thing in the King of Wei's heart?"
"Powerful relatives or lovers?"
He seemed to care about nothing. His calm face would not show a ripple no matter who died in front of him.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Linfeng took a step forward and looked deeply into her eyes, "You will have plenty of time to understand it slowly in the future."
Jiang Xue Ning turned away with a cold face.
Xiao Linfeng accompanied her to the door and watched her get on the carriage.
"Who's next?"
The only answer he got was silence. Jiang Xue Ning lowered the curtain and the carriage left immediately.
The wind lifted Xiao Linfeng's hair, and his expression suddenly softened. He said softly, "Have fun..."
After all, the hunt would soon begin, and the more interesting the prey, the more excited he would be.
The only legitimate son of the Shangguan family died on the spot, and the Shangguan family was completely destroyed. The double sorrow gave the funeral an absurd and terrifying color.
When the people present on that day discussed the matter privately, they always spoke in an ominous tone and with gloomy expressions.
Rumors quickly spread, saying that wronged ghosts were seeking revenge, that Shangguan Mu saw something he shouldn't have seen in the mourning hall, and that the Shangguan family had done too many bad things.
In the end, when people mentioned the Shangguan family, they all sighed: This is the law of nature, and retribution will come.
