Shen Qingtang looked down at the person kneeling on the ground and said coldly:

"Sister Zhao, this must be your fault. Qingwu is a child. You promised to take her out, but you failed to bring her back."

"She is my uncle's only daughter, and the future consort of the current crown prince. Even if you die as an apology, you cannot escape the blame."

Zhao Ruyun clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves.

She snorted in her heart: What good are you, Shen Qingtang? You speak in high-sounding words, but you rush here day and night, all for the position of Crown Princess!

"Okay, Tangtang, stop talking. It's not easy for your aunt to be alone in Kyoto, and Qingwu is in such a situation. It's easy for something to happen in a moment. This was an accident, so you can't blame others."

Shen Hao stepped forward and scolded his daughter in a low voice.

Shen Hao's wife Shen Yan glanced at Shen Qingtang, then stepped forward to help Zhao Qiuyi.

"Uncle Shen is the most sensible one." The neighbor nearby nodded in agreement.

Shen Hao also glanced at Shen Qingtang, then looked at the old lady, "Mother, the incident has already happened. Those who deserve punishment must be punished, but the most urgent matter now is to properly arrange Qingwu's funeral."

Old Madam Shen felt a pain in her arm and cried bitterly, "Qingwu, my poor granddaughter, she was a fool since she was little, and she died before she even reached the age of marriage."

The crying was so sad that everyone around could not help but tear up.

Zhao Qiuyi leaned against Shen Yan, wiping her tears and sobbing, "Brother, what should we do about Qingwu's funeral? Maybe bury him in the ancestral tomb, so that he can be worshipped by future generations? That way, he can also receive the blessings of our ancestors."

Everyone looked at Shen Hao.

Shen Qingwu, who was already standing behind the crowd, also looked at Shen Hao, curious about how he would handle it.

Shen Hao looked helpless, "Sister-in-law, it's not that I, as the eldest uncle, don't allow it, it's really unlucky for a daughter to be buried in the ancestral tomb."

Zhao Qiuyi burst into tears when she heard this.

"Don't be sad, sister-in-law. Before coming to Kyoto, I have already found a ghost marriage for Qingwu. Next month, after she reaches the age of 15 and has the betrothal ceremony, she can be buried in her husband's family's tomb. There, she will be taken care of." Shen Hao said hurriedly.

"Uncle Shen is the one who thinks things through." Everyone began to discuss in a low voice.

"It is true that a daughter cannot be buried in the ancestral tomb. It will ruin the feng shui. Qiuyi, this is the best arrangement." Someone advised Zhao Qiuyi.

Zhao Qiuyi nodded with sobs, "That's all I can do. Thank you, big brother."

The neighbors were all praising Shen Hao, but he waved his hands and said, "This is what I should do. Shen Lan has been in the borderland for many years. As his eldest brother, I should share his worries..."

"Mom, mom, save me..." Shen Qingwu pushed the crowd away, interrupted Shen Hao's words, and shouted for help.

At this time, the smell on her body was really unpleasant, and everyone couldn't help but cover their noses and make way.

Shen Qingwu soon appeared in front of the Shen family. She ran straight to Zhao Ruyun and pushed Zhao Ruyun, who was kneeling on the ground and trying to get up, to the ground with her dirty and bloody hands.

"Yun'er--" Zhao Qiuyi forgot to cry. She pushed Shen Yan away and rushed to Zhao Ruyun with heartache.

Shen Qingwu, however, pushed the man aside and rode on top of Zhao Ruyun, scratching her randomly without any reason. "Zhao Ruyun, you actually want to kill me. You have such a cruel heart."

"For so many years, you have been eating and using my Shen family, spending more than me, the eldest daughter of the Shen family, and you still dare to come and kill me!"

Shen Qingwu tore Zhao Ruyun's hair into a mess, and then pulled off a bunch of her scalp.

Zhao Ruyun screamed in pain and curled up on the ground, desperately protecting her face.

"Someone, come quickly, pull this lunatic away!" Zhao Qiuyi shouted at the dumbfounded guards at the door.

"Mom, don't you recognize Qingwu?" Shen Qingwu scratched Zhao Ruyun's arm with his claws, then suddenly stood up and rushed towards Zhao Qiuyi.

"Ahhh, get out, get out of here--" Zhao Qiuyi only saw a dirty madman with disheveled hair rushing towards her. She staggered back, but was grabbed by Shen Qingwu's arm.

"Mom, it's okay that you have been partial to my cousin for so many years, but why did you help her to kill me?" Shen Qingwu leaned forward and asked miserably.

"This really seems to be the silly girl from the Shen family. She wore this dress when she went out that day. Although it is so dirty now that the color can't be seen, I remember the style, and the voice sounds like her too." Someone bravely took the opportunity to go forward and take a look.

"I climbed up the cliff with great difficulty, and you said I was dead? Do my brothers know about this?" Shen Qingwu pushed Zhao Qiuyi so hard that she staggered and fell to the ground.

She immediately wanted to rush up and beat someone up, but the guards who rushed over grabbed her arms on both sides.

"Get out!" Shen Qingwu pushed the guard hard, and he fell to the ground with his legs spread out.

"Ahhhh——" Zhao Qiuyi screamed, but no one dared to step forward to stop the madman, so five scratches mixed with blood and mud were left on her face.

"You, you, where did this lunatic come from?!" Shen Hao, as the head of the Shen family at the moment, shouted boldly.

After Shen Qingwu punched Zhao Qiuyi twice, he jumped up and pounced on Shen Hao.

"Are you my uncle?" She lifted her dirty hair and asked with squinted eyes.

Shen Hao was shocked. These eyes looked exactly like one person.

"You're the one who wants to arrange a ghost marriage for me? You're so quick! I've only been missing for seven days, and you've already arranged a dead man for me to marry?!"

"Shen Hao, who gave you the guts? I, Shen Qingwu, am the future Crown Princess. If you do this, where will the Crown Princess be placed?! Where will the Royal Family be placed? Do you want to kill the Shen family?"

Shen Qingwu suddenly became furious, yelled loudly, and raised his hand to slap Shen Hao in the face. Shen Hao was spun on the spot, and finally his feet broke and he fell to the ground with a thud.

Shen Hao looked in the direction of Shen Qingtang.

Shen Qingtang coughed and stepped forward gracefully. Her voice seemed to carry some kind of soothing magic, "Sister, don't be angry."

Shen Qingwu stopped her violent action of wanting to hit someone, and her almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly. In her memory, there was this person, just in the past two years, when she celebrated her birthday.

"I know you are my sister. Now let's go change into clean clothes and then talk about this, okay?" Shen Qingtang asked gently.

Shen Qingwu put his hands on his hips and snorted coldly, "I don't believe you!"

"Go ahead, kid. We'll wait here." An old neighbor said enthusiastically.
