After being mocked, Ning Shu did not blush at all. "Sigh … Young Master, you may not know this, but the person lying in this tomb is my daughter's husband. I haven't seen him for a long time, and it's lonely in the middle of the night. I miss him very much. I thought that my husband would miss me too, so I specially invited him out to meet me."
A cool breeze blew, lifting his long black hair. Under the moonlight, he looked like an immortal. He reached out to take another wine cup and slowly poured the wine in front of Qi Huaijin's grave. "How come I heard that your husband is lying on a sickbed in the Residence of Yun?"
"…" Ning Shu was speechless after being exposed. After a while, she smiled and said, "Cloud Leaf is my new husband, but my marriage with the Third Young Master of the Qi family was also decided by the Emperor. Now that I have a new husband, I shouldn't forget my old one. Just now, I was being fair, don't you think so?"
Ning Shu was about to continue talking nonsense but was interrupted by him. There was a hint of impatience between his eyebrows as if he did not want to continue talking with her, "Ning Shu, the eldest daughter of the official wife of the House of High Duke, sixteen years old, under the tutelage of Master Zhuge Hui Ci, clever and decisive. When she was ten years old, Taoist Yun You said that her life was unlucky. When she was fifteen years old, she married three people. Two of them died suddenly, and the last one was unknown. You suspected that someone was secretly targeting you, so you came here in the middle of the night to dig up the corpse to confirm your suspicion. Because you didn't want to expose yourself in front of me, you took away the burial objects in an emergency and led the suspicion to the tomb robbers. "
"But there are hundreds of tombs here, and the ancestors of the Qi family are all buried here. There are many who were buried with more people than the Third Young Master of the Qi family. If it was a tomb robber, he would start from the most luxurious burial place first, and then the others. The more, the better. Even if you did it on the spur of the moment and were unprepared, the safest way would be to find the closest tomb and leave before the guards find out. But the place where the Third Young Master of the Qi family was buried … "
The man did not bother to continue, and a deep sneer appeared on his lips, "You think you are smart."
He was blind, but at this moment, Ning Shu felt embarrassed as if she was naked in front of him. It was as if her every secret and thought had been seen through by him! No, it shouldn't be just her. He might even be in control of the entire capital!
Ning Shu's shock lasted only for a moment. She quickly calmed down and smiled, "Young Master, you're extremely intelligent. My daughter admires you greatly. It's just that I'm very curious. Why didn't you come to pay your respects to Third Young Master Qi during the day? Instead, you chose to visit in the dead of night when there's no one around. Could it be that you also have some unspeakable secret like me? "
"Heir of Xiahou."
She spat out the last four words word by word from her bright red lips.
In her previous life, Ning Shu had never seen his real face, but today, she knew that there was no one else but Xiahou Qing in front of her.
Because in this huge capital, there were so many noble people, but there was no one whose temperament could make her so amazed. It was extremely gorgeous, but also extremely distant, like a swimming dragon breaking through the Milky Way, sprinkling golden waves all over the sky. It was also like the first snow lying on a green branch, a piece of snow slowly falling down. You immediately reached out to catch it, but when you opened your palm, you couldn't see anything. You knew that you couldn't catch anything, but you couldn't help but desperately chase after it.
Even the Empress praised him when she saw him for the first time, "When you see Xiahou Qing, the world pales in comparison."
She remembered that in her previous life, he died at the age of 24. Before he died, he stayed in Yunzhou in the southwest and did not set foot in the capital. Could it be that because of her rebirth, many things had changed subtly in the unseen world?
The corners of Xiahou Qing's calm lips finally curled up. The first thing that could be called a smile tonight was shockingly beautiful.
But it was cold.
"So, you have seen through my identity. I can only ask you to die."
