Song Rui's eyes flickered, and he immediately bowed to Mrs. Shen without saying anything else.
When Mrs. Shen saw this, she felt even more sorry for her daughter.
This person indeed had some feelings for Rong'er. Unfortunately, her daughter had been bewitched by that rascal Meng Xuan.
When she looked at the female corpse in the coffin again, Mrs. Shen wiped away her tears once more.
"Send me back to my residence," she said after a while.
"Mistress, this way please…" Song Rui said quickly.
Only then did Mrs. Shen leave.
Outside the house, Song Rui saw the horse carriage off.
He waited until the candlelight on the horse carriage had disappeared from his sight before turning around and returning to the house.
He instructed some people to bury the two coffins.
After personally watching over the people carrying out this task until they were done, Song Rui then mounted his horse and returned to the Prime Minister's residence.
