In the evening, Li Shuangwan, who was exhausted after several days of sleep, woke up and was delighted to see that her master, Master Sanqing, had come.
"Master..." Li Shuangwan's eyes were red. A lot of things had happened in the past six months.
Master Sanqing laughed and touched her head: "Child, you have suffered a lot during this period."
Li Shuangwan shook her head. With Gu Xingyan around, she was not miserable: "Master, is it because of my rebirth that the five thousand Li family soldiers died?"
Master Sanqing shook his head: "They were originally lonely souls in this world. This time they came to the human world, their merits are complete, and they can rest assured to reincarnate."
"But I killed them."
"No. Although they lived a few years less than in their previous lives, they were charged with treason in their previous lives. Even if they go to hell, if no one redresses their grievances, they will forever be wandering ghosts. Even if they were wrongly accused, they will not be allowed to reincarnate."
"Including their nine clans. As long as they are not redressed, they will wander the human world forever, unable to reincarnate, and endure countless hardships and difficulties."
"Child, your rebirth saved them."
Although Li Shuangwan still couldn't let it go, he felt relieved after hearing what his master said: "Master, why did you come to Shengjing?"
"Aren't you going to see Ling Heng off tomorrow?"
"Ah."
"There are some things he should know."
Li Shuangwan suddenly looked up at his master.
Master Sanqing had a kind look on his face. He took off the string of Buddhist beads on his wrist and handed it to her: "Put it on."
"Master?"
"Wear it."
She is the reborn person that Gu Xingyan exchanged for half of his life in two lifetimes, and her soul is unstable.
Only when Ling Heng dies can his soul be truly at peace.
This string of Buddhist beads will help her find peace of mind.
Seeing that the master was about to leave, Li Shuangwan hurriedly asked, "Master, where are you going?"
"Go and pray for the souls of the dead."
May they enjoy prosperity and peace in the afterlife.
……
Ling Heng, who had been locked up in the Sky Prison for several days, had a very hard time these days.
He committed the crime of treason, and it was only a matter of time before he was beheaded.
During the first few days after being imprisoned, Ling Heng would shout that he was deceived and wronged, and demanded to see his father.
But after shouting his throat out and no one paid any attention, he stopped.
The food that was delivered was either rotten or smelly.
Those jailers who used to think it was a luxury to even see him from a distance now ignored him.
No one bothered him.
No one came to question him.
Because there was no need, his allies could see it clearly on the day of the coup.
He was completely defeated in this palace coup.
His 30,000 private soldiers were of no use.
The hundreds of secret guards were of no use.
Even the Northwest Military Affairs Camp, which had been under their control for a long time, was wiped out.
Ling Heng was in such a miserable state, and all this was caused by Li Huaiying and his son, especially Li Shuangyan, from the Zhenguo Mansion!
Last night, he had a very long dream.
After waking up, Ling Heng felt it was absurd.
Four years later, he was named crown prince by his father.
After being the crown prince for three years, his father passed away and he naturally ascended the throne as emperor.
During the years when he was the crown prince, they lived in harmony with each other.
How is that possible? If it weren't for his father, he and his mother wouldn't have had such a hard time.
There will never be any possibility of a loving father and a filial son between the two of them.
What's even more ridiculous is, how could he possibly kill the entire family of the General Guarding the Country?
Although his childhood was miserable because of what Li Huaiying said to his father, the General's Mansion mobilized all its forces to help him become emperor, which can be said to be a great achievement.
It's been written off long ago.
He was not the kind of ungrateful person. How could he wipe out their entire family immediately after he secured the throne?
What's even more ridiculous is that didn't Li Shuangwan die in the fire at Bishuiquan Villa a long time ago?
In the dream, why did she become his Crown Princess four years later, and when he ascended the throne, she even became his Queen.
After the fall of the General's Mansion, she was burned to death in the cold palace by herself?
He went to the cold palace, lit the curtains himself, and watched the fire devour her bit by bit.
He even said those cruel words to her before she died.
He loves Li Shuangwan, how could he bear to kill her?
It is even more impossible to say such absurd and vicious words.
Also, he had so many concubines in his harem.
Even Qinglian, who had been dead long ago and whose body had been chopped into pieces, became his concubine.
What's funny is that he also named Li Shuangmiao as a noble concubine, a bed-climbing idiot whom he hated so much that he couldn't wait to see her.
What a joke.
baffling.
However, what happened in the dream was so clear.
After Ling Heng woke up, he sat on the haystack thinking about his dream clearly and couldn't calm down for a long time.
He even doubted whether a person really had a past life or a present life.
Did those things really happen?
He sat in the corner, legs crossed, unable to figure it out.
If it weren't for the small skylight on the top, there would be no distinction between day and night here.
When Li Shuangwan came in, she saw Ling Heng sitting in the corner with disheveled hair and dirty face.
He lowered his head, with a few strands of dry grass stuck in his hair, and his clothes had stains here and there.
I don’t know what I’m thinking.
In her hands she held three items used to sentence criminals to death: a dagger, a white silk, and poisoned wine.
A few days ago, those ministers who plotted rebellion and their families and nine clans were beheaded.
Now, Ling Heng is the only one imprisoned in the huge prison.
Gu Xingyan gave the jailer a thick bag of silver and asked him to take his brothers to buy some wine and food and have a good meal.
The princess came here on the orders of the emperor, so the jailers were naturally happy to leave.
After expressing his gratitude, he took the silver from Gu Xingyan and waved his hand to have everyone leave.
Gu Xingyan was guarding the entrance of the prison and did not come in.
Just tell her that he is always there and she can see him as long as she looks up.
Li Shuangwan just looked at Ling Heng quietly through the bars of the cell for a long time.
Ling Hengfeng is handsome, gentle as jade, with a pair of peach blossom eyes, and he always looks at dogs with some affection.
He is so miserable now.
After falling into poverty, Ling Heng is worse than a dog.
Today she came to see him off in person.
Ling Heng felt a gaze falling on him for a long time.
He slowly raised his head.
Light came in from the small window bars at the highest point of the prison, and the man stood in the beam of sunlight.
The floating dust jumped in the halo, as if dancing around that person.
He saw the man clearly.
Ling Heng stood up suddenly, rushed forward a few steps, and shouted across the fence: "Ah Wan!"
His eyes were sad and confused, but the moment he saw her, he immediately became affectionate: "Ah Wan, you came to pick me up, didn't you? You love me, I know you love me."
Li Shuangwan sneered: "Ling Heng, I'm here to see you off."
Hearing the voice, Ling Heng seemed to have a bucket of cold water poured over his head. He slowly backed away, sneering at himself: "It turned out to be Princess Ning An."
He thought he saw the woman in his dream.
His wife, Li Shuangwan.
"Did the Emperor ask you to come?"
"Yes."
Ling Heng sneered: "You listen to him, this is not like the princess' style."
Li Shuangwan looked at him calmly without saying anything.
