Chapter 100 - Chapter 100. Comfort is the last thing you need

"Shen Chong's birthday?"

Liu Ruo Qing was startled, "What does that have to do with what I just said?"

As the words reached his mouth, Liu Ruo Qing understood.

Previously, he had heard from the servants in the Duke Palace about the funeral customs in Easternum. If a person in the family passed away and the patriarch happened to be born, then he couldn't enter the coffin on that day.

In other words, Yan Yuan knew that today was Shen Chong's birthday, and he knew that Shen Yuan could not enter the coffin today.

She raised her gaze to look at Yan Yuan's back, and the corner of her mouth slightly raised, "Didn't I say it before, this Yan Yuan isn't like a pig-like teammate."

In his tone, without feeling it, he had gained some appreciation for Yan Yuan.

In the case where Shen Yuan was killed, Liu Ruo Qing was originally just bored and wanted to join in on the fun. After the Liu's was taken away by the Jing Zhao manor, there was nothing left for her.

At most, she would just go to Jing Zhao Yin to testify when the time comes.

The most important thing for her was to think about how to return to the modern world.

heartlock could not be used no matter what, but it seemed like she did not find the right path, so where was the key point.

At this time, Xiao Yue just happened to be bringing a lotus lamp in. Seeing her sitting in front of the pavilion and staring blankly at the heartlock, she shook her head helplessly and walked over, "Princess, you have been staring at this for many days, what are you looking at?"

Liu Ruo Qing helplessly put down the heartlock and shook his head, "You wouldn't understand even if I told you."

"Oh, this is a lotus lamp, it's going to be Mid-Autumn in ten days. I heard that everyone is going to the moat outside the city to light the lamps, and this servant is going to join in the fun."

Xiao Yue passed the lotus lamp in her hand in front of Liu Ruo Qing, and said: "Princess, do you think it will look good?"

But Liu Ruo Qing's words reminded him of something, as she stood there with a thoughtful look.

"I almost forgot. The last time I went down with Master was on the 10th of August. Could it be …"

She lowered her eyes and muttered to herself, listening to Xiao Yue being at a loss, "Princess, what did you say?

"Oh, nothing, I just remembered something very important."

She casually sent Xiao Yue off without explaining anything, she only frowned and fell into deep thought once more.

Seeing that she was not in the mood to bother with him, Xiao Yue did not disturb her and left with the lotus lamp.

Liu Ruo Qing sat in front of the pavilion with her chin in her hands, her fingertips intentionally or unintentionally hitting the table, when suddenly, she slapped the table, "That's right, it must be like that."

Every time before a fight, his Master would calculate a divination and calculate a suitable time to fight a battle before leaving the tomb.

Therefore, she clearly remembered the time of the battle. It was the tenth day of the eighth month.

At that time, when she had gotten the heartlock from the main coffin, she had wanted to take a closer look at it using the moonlight, but in the end, she had instead worn it on xieqing.

Perhaps, in order for the heartlock to be effective, one must first return to the ancient tomb where they found the heartlock, and it must be on the tenth night of the eighth month.

"Whether it's okay or not, I have to give it a try."

Liu Ruo Qing returned to her room with the heartlock in his arms.

Today was the fifth day of the new year. In other words, she still had five days to search for the tomb where the heartlock once existed.

Since the heartlock was Yan Yuan's, then that meant that the tomb she fell on at that time should be the Royal Tomb's.

But this country never existed in history, how could there be such a tomb.

Liu Ruo Qing didn't think too much about this issue. If it was really as she had thought just now, she had to enter the Easternum as soon as possible and give it a try.

As a Crown Princess Jing, it was not hard for her to find a reason to know where the Royal Tomb was. However, since she was a Royal Tomb, there would definitely be many soldiers guarding the place.

She had to think of a suitable solution.

Two days later, the incident of Liu's killing his own daughter, Shen Yuan, started to be interrogated in Jing Zhao Yin. After knowing that it was Liu's who killed Shen Yuan, everyone was inconceivable but at the same time, they were angry.

He didn't think that his own mother would be so vicious, to actually be able to kill his own daughter.

Outside of Jing Zhao Yin's residence was a packed crowd of spectators. Liu's was escorted out of the prison by the yamen runners, and after two days of physical and mental pressure, she had become visibly more haggard compared to when she first saw him, but also had an additional beauty that caused one to cherish his.

Liu Ruo Qing also stood in the crowd, looking at Liu's, she shook her head regretfully.

At that time, when Liu's admitted to killing people, Wei Jin and the other yamen runners were present. It was completely solid evidence, and Liu's did not try to defend himself anymore.

When they found out the reason behind Liu's killing Shen Xin, they were shocked once again.

Even though she was very beautiful, her five years of age hadn't fully grown up yet. As Shen Yuan grew up, her beauty began to spread like wildfire, causing Liu's to actually be jealous.

It was also from that time onwards that she would scold Shen Yuan whenever he didn't want to fight him. There were quite a few times when there was no reason for her to do so.

Even if Shen Chong and the young miss of the Shen family tried to advise them, it would be to no avail.

Because Shen Chong treated Shen Yuan as his own self, Liu's even felt that Shen Yuan had seduced his own stepfather, causing the jealousy and hatred in her heart to deepen.

That day, when she accidentally found out that Shen Yuan was pregnant, no matter how Shen Yuan explained it, she felt that the child was Shen Chong's. She couldn't believe what Shen Yuan had said at all, and in the end, when Shen Yuan wasn't paying attention, she was strangled to death.

The Liu's was a great beauty in the first place, so Shen Yuan's beauty was something that was completely inherited from her. No one would have thought that she would be so jealous of her own daughter, even to the point of murder.

No one sympathized with Liu's, they even thought that she deserved to die.

The case was quickly resolved, and the news of the Liu's murdering and murdering the son of the King was spread throughout the streets. The case was handed to the Ministry of Justice, the death penalty for the Liu's was inevitable.

When Liu Ruo Qing came out of the court, he coincidentally bumped into Wang Xuan Ling, but he did not appear in the court to listen. She should be like her, standing in the crowd.

Liu Ruo Qing looked at Wang Xuan Ling. Because of Shen Yuan's death, Wang Xuan Ling looked much more haggard and dispirited, his originally handsome face was now completely covered with beard dregs. The blood in his eyes showed that he had not slept soundly for the past few days.

This appearance had completely lost the high-spirited and elegant youth she had seen in the Imperial Palace that day.

Wang Xuan Ling also saw Liu Ruo Qing, and barely managed to gather her spirit, "Crown Princess Jing."

"A dead person cannot be revived, Young Master Wang, please grieve."

Liu Ruo Qing wasn't a person who was good at comforting others. She knew that for those who had lost their loved ones, comfort was the thing that they didn't need the most.
