I'm reborn, so it's not too much to kill the one who traveled through the book, right?

When Shen Rong heard Wang Qing say that the clothes of the corpse were no different from those of the local bandits, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"No news is the best news..." Shen Rong murmured to herself while looking at the sky outside the window.

When Shen Rong first heard about the corpse, her hands couldn't help shaking. It wasn't until Wang Qing said that the man's clothes were no different from those of a bandit that she finally calmed down.

Wang Qing thought about it and decided to tell Shen Rong what he found in the pond where Changsheng fell into the water.

When he saw the unfathomable pool of water, he suspected that Changsheng had been washed away to another place through the pool, so he sought information from the locals.

I learned that the bottom of the pool was connected to an underground river and was unfathomable.

He was unwilling to give up, so he found a few people who were good at swimming and went down into the deep pool.

Unfortunately, when those people went down, they found out that the pool was unfathomable and there were several undercurrents on the sides of the pool.

Some even said frankly that if one accidentally fell into the undercurrent and was swept into the underground river, it would be normal not to find the body.

Wang Qing did not hide any of these and told everyone everything he had done along the way.

While he was telling the story, the Shen couple heard the news that Wang Qing had returned home and hurried to the front yard.

The two thought they could get some news, but they didn't expect that as soon as they entered the door, they heard Wang Qing talking about an undercurrent in the pool, which led directly to an underground river, and it was very likely that people were swept into the river.

Grandpa and grandma's faces turned pale instantly, and then they became a little unsteady.

The maidservants beside the two of them held on to them so that they did not fall.

Shen Rong was sharp-eyed. She helped the two elderly people sit down on the chairs and comforted them, "Grandma, I remember what Lord Zhou said was that Changsheng was ambushed by the bandits when he fell into the water. Lord Zhou did not say that Changsheng was injured at that time. Changsheng was not seriously injured. With his ability to float in water, he would not be unable to get out of the water."

Shen Rong talked a lot, and the two old people remembered how Changsheng had rescued children from the village one after another in the river of Taohua Village. Their faces indeed looked better.

"But... didn't they say there was an undercurrent there?" Sixth Grandma couldn't help but say.

She didn't hope that anything would happen to Changsheng, but if Changsheng was fine, he wouldn't have been away for so long. After all, something must have happened to Changsheng, but they just didn't know it.

Shen Rong looked at Wang Qing again, "Brother Wang, I wonder if the undercurrent is turbulent?"

Wang Qing thought about what the people who dived into the water said, and then said, "The other party only said that there is an undercurrent, and the water flow seems to be quite large... but... it doesn't seem to be to the point where it can suck people in..."

Otherwise, in such a small pool of water, if there is a fast undercurrent, it would not be easy for those people to escape and they might be washed in.

Wang Qing remembered that when those people came out of the water, their expressions remained calm, and it was obvious that they were not affected by the undercurrent.

Shen Rong's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at her grandmother, "Grandma, did you hear that? The man who went into the water was able to come back unscathed. Changsheng is such a good swimmer, he must be fine in the water. So, Changsheng must have been tripped up by something, that's why he didn't come back."

The more Shen Rong thought about it, the more she felt that this was possible.

After hearing what Shen Rong said, Sixth Grandpa's brows were still furrowed.

As for Changsheng’s disappearance, Sanniang couldn’t just deny it and pretend nothing happened.

The imperial decree to inherit the title has been issued, unless everyone sees Changsheng appear alive in front of the public.

Otherwise, in the eyes of outsiders, Changsheng is now a dead man.

This is also the case in the eyes of the emperor.

The imperial edict had been issued, and the emperor's words were golden. In the edict, it was stated that Changsheng died in the line of duty, which was why Pingping inherited the title.

Now, regardless of whether Changsheng is dead or alive, the funeral in Pingyang Marquis's mansion cannot be delayed any longer, otherwise it would be disobeying the emperor's order...

Sixth Grandpa explained to Shen Rong all the interests involved.

After Shen Rong heard this, she was silent for a while and said:

"Then... let's hold one!"

At the beginning of the new year, the Pingyang Marquis Mansion held two funerals one after another.

Many onlookers felt that the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion was really unlucky.

What Shen Rong built for Changsheng was a cenotaph.

She kept the matter extremely low-key and did not inform anyone in the capital of the death.

And so, on a rainy day, Changsheng's cenotaph was erected.

Shen Rong didn't cry the whole time because she knew that nothing would happen to Changsheng.

After all the ceremonies were over, Shen Rong looked at the wet grave and couldn't help but secretly said:

This is good. If Changsheng doesn't return home for a long time, this will be a little comfort for her before he comes back.

After the funeral, no matter whether Shen Rong was willing to believe that Changsheng was really gone or not, she once again began to live in mourning behind closed doors.

Something happened in Pingyang Marquis' Mansion, and Zhang Liuniang and Qu Lian were still keeping an eye on Chen Yuan.

Look, the two of them have a clear division of labor. One is responsible for the news inside the general's mansion, and the other is keeping an eye on the outside of Chen and Yang's mansions, trying to find an opportunity to attack Chen Yuan or the Chen family.

Chen Yuan, who was being stared at, felt nothing at all. She was sick, and her illness was quite serious. She hadn't seen Yang Cheng for a month.

Because General Yang ignored Chen Yuan, the servants in the mansion also started to treat her perfunctorily.

Chen Yuan leaned on the couch with a haggard face, looking at the autumn scenery outside the window with a look of unwillingness.

"Madam, it's time to take your medicine." Luzhu walked to Chen Yuan's side holding a bowl of steaming medicine.

When Chen Yuan heard about taking medicine, his mouth felt bitter.

She had no other illness, just the leucorrhea that some women have.

However, she never expected that this disease would be so difficult to treat.

She thought that she had been taking bitter medicine as meals these days, but her health had not improved. She felt annoyed and raised her hand to knock the bowl out of Luzhu's hand.

"Take medicine, take medicine. I've taken so many medicines and they have no effect. Why should I take more?" Chen Yuan had a ferocious look on his face. He raised his hand and slapped Luzhu, who had already knelt on the ground.

"What are you doing standing there like an idiot? Look at how you do things. You can't even hold a medicine bowl steadily. Why don't you get out of here?"

Luzhu's face immediately swelled up. She didn't dare to look up and hurriedly tried to pick up the porcelain pieces on the ground.

After Chen Yuan vented his anger, he finally calmed down.

Luzhu didn't dare to say much. After picking up the stones on the ground, she crawled out of the house and hid in a corner, crying silently.

Because of this incident, the people in Chen Garden did not dare to step forward for a while. They squatted in the corner in groups of three or four and talked about their general's wife.

"If you ask me, this general's wife is really not as good as the previous one."

"Hey! Who said it wasn't true? How many times has he gotten angry? I think the maids in that room don't dare to show up in front of the master."

"Whoever goes in will be punished. Who dares to go in? I don't dare anyway." A woman shrank her neck and said with a look of fear on her face.

She just saw that the maid named Luzhu had her hands cut by porcelain pieces and was bleeding a lot!
