Although Ling Ruoxi's words were cruel, they were unexpectedly straightforward. Yunjing Chen suddenly came up to her and kissed her cheek: "What I love most is your heartless look."

"Are you a dog?" Ling Ruoxi wiped off the water stains on her face, very dissatisfied with his sudden behavior.

"Oh, I just want to kiss you, I can't help it." Yun Jingchen said ambiguous words of love, but he didn't blush at all.

The corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch violently. This man's face was almost as thick as the city wall.

After leaving the palace, there were almost no pedestrians on the quiet streets. The evening wind blew all the way from the street to the end of the street, and the sound of the wind was as soft as the cry of a baby.

"Walking around?" Yunjing Chen suggested with a smile as the quiet night is always extraordinarily beautiful.

"Do you have such good energy?" Ling Ruoxi glanced at him sideways, "Are you still wandering around so late?"

"Wouldn't it be a pity if a good time and beautiful scenery were wasted?" He always has endless reasons that people can't refute.

Fortunately, there was nothing urgent to do today, so Ling Ruoxi agreed, "Go to a place with me."

Yun Jingchen was slightly confused, but he didn't ask, wanting to wait for her to give him a surprise.

The two left the capital. The soldiers guarding the city recognized Ling Ruoxi and let them go without blocking their way. Now, who doesn't know her reputation on this continent?

"They admire you very much." Yunjing Chen turned his head and looked at the soldiers who were still watching above the city wall. There was a little jealousy in his words, mixed with a little bit of pride.

"If you reveal your identity, they will also worship you." Ling Ruoxi doesn't think this matter is worth making a fuss about. This world believes in strong people. As long as you are strong enough, you will be respected by others. Isn't this natural?

The two of them chatted and laughed when they came to a mass grave not far from the capital. The bare mountain top was piled with large rocks. A few crows cried blood and screamed. The cries made the forest become more and more weird, gloomy and cold.

The wind howls, as if a ghost is about to come out of its cage, which is enough to frighten a child.

"Are you bringing your husband here to seek excitement in the middle of the night?" Yun Jingchen asked with an evil smile, his face full of fear.

Think about it, if you do something inappropriate for children in a place like this, it might have a different flavor.

Irregular people naturally have unorthodox thoughts in their minds.

Although Ling Ruoxi was not the roundworm in his belly, his aggressive gaze was enough for her to guess what he was thinking. She slapped her palm on his back and said, "Be more serious.

Madam... my mother’s tomb is right here.”

Although there was no body in that tomb, the eldest lady's body disappeared, and because of the second lady's instigation, she was not buried in the Ling Mansion's cemetery until her death.

On the bare head, a tombstone was erected as her final destination.

This is also one of the reasons why Ling Ruoxi is not ashamed of Ling Keqing. A real wife who accompanied him from hardship to wealth ended up with such a tragic end. Is this man worthy of being nice to him?

Hearing this, the ridicule and joking on Yun Jingchen's face instantly disappeared and turned into a serious one, "My mother-in-law is actually buried here."

This news shocked him a little.

"Have you never thought about moving her grave?" According to her character, she doesn't seem like someone who would watch her mother wandering in the wilderness.

"Is an empty tomb necessary?" Ling Ruoxi did not think that an empty tomb was worth moving. At certain times, she was so calm that it was shocking, such as at this moment.

She thought that the deceased lady might have reunited with the real Ling Ruoxi when she arrived in the underworld. For her, besides Ling Keqing, the most important thing in her life was her daughter.

This place is the closest to the capital. Looking down from the top of the mountain, you can have a panoramic view of the entire capital. I believe she will like it here even more.

This place where her beloved daughter died tragically, this place where the man she loved even to death lived without regret.

The two of them had been looking for the eldest lady's tomb for a long time. After all, they hadn't been there for a long time. Weeds had already blocked the tombstones that had not been sorted out for many years, so it took some effort to find them.

When she found the moss-covered tombstone, Ling Ruoxi stretched out her hands to clean it up, while Yun Jingchen bent his knees and expressed his sincerity to the eldest lady in the most pious posture.

"My mother-in-law, please rest assured that my son-in-law will take care of Ruoxi wholeheartedly during his lifetime, let her live the best life, and protect her from worries." Yun Jingchen clasped his hands in front of his chest, closed his eyes, and said silently

make a promise.

He had knelt down to only a handful of people in his life, but in front of the eldest lady's tombstone, he gave up all his pride, just because this elder was worthy of his respect and respect.

Ling Ruoxi quickly cleaned the tombstone and pulled out the weeds around it. "It's time to go."

She came here just to pay her respects on a whim. Her goal had been achieved, so she naturally had no intention of staying.

"Why don't you tell your mother-in-law what's on your mind?" Yun Jingchen stood up with his sleeves fluttering, his fiery red clothes fluttering in the wind.

"What do you think?" Ling Ruoxi rolled her eyes at him, "Go home and go to bed!"

She is not the biological daughter of the eldest lady. The only thing she can do for her, besides revenge, is to take care of her tombstone. This is the responsibility she should bear after taking over this body.

Early the next morning, Ling Xiaobai's screams could be heard in the yard.

"Mother! Mother!" Ling Xiaobai ran to the bedroom and opened the door.

Ling Ruoxi, who had been awakened by his high-decibel voice a long time ago, was leaning on the soft pillow at the head of the bed, staring at him with an unhappy expression: "What are you doing?"

"How is it appropriate to make a scene?" Yun Jingchen tied a button on the brocade and reprimanded in a low voice, obviously very dissatisfied with him for disturbing Ling Ruoxi's sweet dream.

Ling Xiaobai stuck out her tongue at him playfully, then rubbed against the edge of the bed and said, "Mom, the baby just picked this up outside."

He handed a brocade box that he had just picked up from outside the house to Ling Ruoxi, "The baby is very good and didn't open it secretly to look at it."

He looked diligent and begging for praise and praise, which made Ling Ruoxi laugh.

Can this guy stop being so cute?

However, in the blink of an eye, Ling Ruoxi's attention was taken away by this brocade box. Who would send something in such a way?

"I'm here to open it." Yun Jingchen's face turned gloomy, and he took the brocade box away from her hand. This cunning move reminded him of Yaowang Valley, so that the more he looked at the brocade box, the more he looked at it.

The more alert you are, the more uneasy you look.

In order to prevent possible accidents, he took the initiative to open the brocade box.

"Tch, it's just a gift." Ling Xiaobai started to argue with him. When someone is particularly unhappy, no matter what they do, they will be misunderstood.

Yun Jingchen did not explain, but a burst of mysterious force burst out from his fingertips, shattering the copper lock outside the brocade box. After a cracking sound, the lock piece fell to the ground.

When he opened the brocade box, he only glanced at it and immediately closed the lid, "There's nothing inside."

His unusual reaction made Ling Ruoxi suspicious, and she gently opened her palms: "Bring it here."

If there really was nothing inside, he would never have such an expression.

Yun Jingchen was unwilling to hand over the brocade box. His hesitation made Ling Ruoxi feel more uneasy. She slowly straightened up from the bed, her eyes were cold, as if there was an air of hostility in her face: "Bring it here."

She wanted to see what was inside that could change his expression drastically.

Ling Xiaobai looked at this and that, his little head was a little weak and he had no idea what was going on. However, it seemed that his mother and the bad guy were beginning to have conflicts.

"You promise me first, you must stay calm." Yun Jingchen couldn't defeat her, and he was afraid that Ling Ruoxi would rob him, so he could only make her mentally prepared in advance.

After all, even he lost control of his emotions after seeing the things inside.

The more he said this, the more uneasy he felt in Ling Ruoxi's heart. Under Yun Jingchen's worried eyes, Ling Ruoxi had a gloomy face and nodded heavily: "I will calm down, give it to me."

There was no other way, Yun Jingchen slowly took out the brocade box from behind, and Ling Ruoxi quickly snatched it away, but when she saw clearly the bloody things inside, her rosy cheeks turned as pale as paper.

"What is this?" Her tone was slightly trembling, and she almost suspected that she was hallucinating before her eyes. Otherwise, how could she see a bloody ear?

Yun Jingchen couldn't bear to look away, it was obvious who sent this brocade box.

Ling Xiaobai peeked out of the gap and immediately stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, ah! How could someone send such a disgusting thing?

"Crack!"

The brocade box was closed again by Ling Ruoxi. Her chest was rising and falling uneasily, and the fist hanging by her side was tightening and loosening. It seemed that only in this way could she restrain the surging anger and murderous intention in her heart.

Go down.

"That's too much!" The four words seemed to be squeezed out from between the teeth, containing overwhelming cruelty.

Yun Jingchen quickly patted her back to comfort her: "I'm not sure yet...it might just be a trick they want to disturb our mood."

Such a poor explanation, let alone Ling Ruoxi, could not be believed even by himself.

"Is it possible?" she asked coldly, slapped his arm away, and jumped off the bed, "Where are the three prisoners now?"

"In the wing, I will send someone to guard it day and night for twelve hours." Yun Jingchen was not satisfied with her. He knew that now she needed to use some special means to vent her inner anger.

Ling Ruoxi didn't say anything, and left the bedroom with an evil spirit all over her body.

When Ling Xiaobai saw it, he immediately wanted to catch up, but Yun Jingchen grabbed him by the collar: "Don't cause trouble at this time."

He was about to retort, but when he saw Yun Jingchen's extremely serious face, he silently swallowed back the words that came to his lips.

What? He was just worried about his mother, so he didn't want to cause trouble.

Even so, he was still frightened by Yun Jingchen's ugly face and did not dare to contradict him at this time. He always felt that he was scarier than ever before.

Ling Ruoxi kicked open the door of the guest room. Behind her were the guards with astonished faces. They did not dare to make a sound, let alone obstruct them. Any fool could see how terrible it would be if they stepped forward to stop them now.

consequences.

His extremely cold eyes glanced at the three people who were tied to the chairs, "Bring me a bucket of cold water."

They slept so comfortably that she had to use a special way to wake them up.

With a wave of her hand, the wooden chair on the side was sucked behind her by Xuan Li. After sitting down, Ling Ruoxi quietly waited for the guard to bring cold water, her eyes fixed on the three people in front of her, as if they were real and extremely sharp.

Soon, the guard returned to the guest room carrying a bucket full of cold water.

"Pour!" After the concise command, cold water rushed over the heads of the three people.
