Li Qingluo, who was watching this scene quietly not far away, turned his head to look at Duan Rongshi beside him.

They held a piece of colorful glass in their hands.

It is a rare treasure in the ocean.

As long as you put it in front of your eyes, you can see everything in the darkness even in a dark place.

This was the treasure that Duan Rongshi and Li Qing found in the inner chamber of the imperial mausoleum, a burial chamber that was already filled with countless treasures.

There is not only this colorful glass, but also countless other rare treasures in the mountain of treasures.

At first, Li Qingluo thought that those were the things that the Emperor of Chu had prepared long ago to be buried with him.

It was not until she and Duan Rongshi saw boxes of silks and satins, and even finished clothes inside.

There are elegant and dignified styles as well as fresh and graceful youth styles.

It looked like it was half prepared for his mother.

The other half was given to Duan Rongshi's mother, Zong Zheng Qingya.

Therefore, the treasures and red hairpin ornaments in that room were all burial objects prepared for the late queen, Duan Rongshi’s grandmother and mother.

The room cannot be entered easily.

Duan Rongshi also knew some of the mechanisms, so the two of them were able to go in and see everything.

Including the original imperial tomb, there are also four fist-sized night pearls.

It was these four night-shining pearls that made it possible to clearly see everything inside the imperial mausoleum even when the stone door was closed.

Now, the four night pearls were all stored by Duan Rongshi in the burial chamber full of jewels, so Zong Zheng Lang woke up like a blind man.

Now seeing Zong Zheng Langri waking up like this, Li Qingluo couldn't help but reach out and hold Duan Rongshi's hand tightly.

She knew that it was time for them to put an end to their relationship with this tyrant.

"Ashi, what are you planning?"

The two turned around and walked back to the corridor, entered another empty burial room, and sat down against the wall.

Before they returned to the imperial mausoleum, the rest of the people who should have left had also left.

Including Master and Apprentice Jinhuan, Zhang Tingyu, Yang Qilang, and Qingyangzi, they had already taken everyone, including the bodies of King Qin and Zong Zheng Wuxie, out of the area around the imperial mausoleum.

Now only the guards of Prince Su's Mansion and the assassins, along with Zong Zheng Wuheng, are still outside.

Zong Zheng Wuheng had not left yet because Duan Rongshi had asked him to stay as he had other uses.

Therefore, now in the imperial mausoleum, besides the Emperor of Chu, there are only Li Qingluo and Duan Rongshi.

"Prince Qin and Zong Zheng Wuxie have both received the fate they deserved."

"In Da Chu, are we going to end everything?"

Duan Rongshi didn't know what he was thinking.

It took a while for Li Qingluo to finish asking questions before he lowered his head and came to his senses.

"Luo'er, what did you say?"

Li Qingluo knew that he was in a complicated mood.

It is obviously not appropriate to discuss this matter now.

She simply leaned over, rested her head on his knees, and closed her eyes.

Fortunately, because Duan Rongshi was a mysophobe, even in such a terrible situation, he found some valuables in the imperial tomb and spread them on the ground.

So, it’s not too sloppy.

"I mean, I barely slept last night."

"So I'm tired."

"Ashi, I'll go to sleep first."

"We'll talk about the rest tomorrow."

She reached out and hugged Duan Rongshi's arm, turned around and quickly fell asleep.

Duan Rongshi patted her gently, and after her breathing became even, he took off his coat and covered Li Qingluo with it.

Then he held her hand tightly again, closed his eyes, leaned back, and closed his eyes gently.

That night, Li Qing slept with a sore back.

Although the ground was covered with soft cloth, the stone floor was too hard. Li Qingluo held up his waist and couldn't stand up for a long time.

She sighed helplessly.

Unexpectedly, in just three years, she had become accustomed to a comfortable and easy life and could not even endure this kind of hardship.

Li Qingluo quickly got up and looked around.

The room was bright because Duan Rongshi placed a night pearl there.

But why is he not here?

It was unknown what time it was in the imperial mausoleum, so Li Qingluo could only pick up the night pearl and explore the way outside.

She first hid the night pearl and went back to the tomb to take a look. After not seeing Duan Rongshi, she turned around and walked back.

This imperial mausoleum was actually built very deep.

In addition to the most spacious tomb chamber that houses three sarcophagi, there are many other burial chambers.

And the further you go inside, the more burial pits you will find.

The other exit is found in the innermost pit.

When the day comes when the imperial mausoleum welcomes its owner and is completely sealed, all the mechanisms inside the mausoleum will be activated, and the final entrance and exit will also be completely sealed.

Li Qingluo came to the innermost room and just saw Duan Rongshi coming back from outside.

"Ah Shi!"

Seeing him, Li Qingluo immediately walked over quickly.

"Is it daybreak outside?"

She vaguely saw a glimmer of light.

Duan Rongshi nodded: "It was already past noon. Luo'er was sleeping soundly, so I didn't wake you up."

"But are you hungry?"

He took out the food he had brought in his arms.

It was still hot roast chicken and roast potatoes.

Li Qingluo was pleasantly surprised: "There are delicious foods."

She tore off a chicken leg and handed it to Duan Rongshi.

Duan Rongshi held her wrist again and passed the chicken leg to her mouth: "Luo'er, eat first, don't worry about me."

"I have no appetite."

Duan Rongshi ate some chicken bones slowly and leisurely.

The chicken legs and wings were given to Li Qingluo.

Moreover, he took the initiative to peel some roast potatoes for Li Qingluo.

A pair of large hands with fair skin, distinct joints and strong strength were now covered in black.

Li Qingluo gnawed on the chicken leg silently, and couldn't help but think of the past.

Who would have thought that the Prince Su, who was so precious and picky about everything in the world, would have such a carefree and considerate side like today?

The person who used to wipe each finger clean with a handkerchief after touching anything else.

Now I can even peel black potatoes.

Li Qingluo did not feel any pride or sweetness in her heart.

Instead, I feel a little sad and distressed.

So she deliberately touched her stomach and said, "I'm full. Ah Shi, please finish this chicken leg quickly. I'll go check over there."

Li Qingluo stuffed the other chicken leg that he was reluctant to eat into Duan Rongshi's hand, then walked to the corner.

She had long heard the sound of an underground river flowing here.

Sure enough, she found a source of water in the corner.

Li Qingluo took out a clean handkerchief from his arms, then leaned over and lay down.

Duan Rongshi saw her dangerous action and hurried over to pick her up.

"Luo'er, what are you doing?"

"If you need water, I brought a water bag with me."

Duan Rongshi took off the water bag from his waist, and Li Qingluo saw it.

She slapped her forehead and said, "Look, I'm confused."

"But it doesn't matter, as long as the handkerchief is wet."

"Hurry up and eat, Ah Shi. I'll wipe your hands after you finish."

"I'll make sure to wipe your hands clean!"

As Li Qingluo spoke, he squeezed the excess water off the handkerchief.

Duan Rongshi looked at her quietly.

For the first time, a 'stunned' look appeared on his face.

Then he looked at the chicken leg that she stuffed into his hand.

My heart had already been filled with her, but at this moment I couldn't control myself and it was overflowing with more and more.

More and more greed.

More and more happiness.

More and more, the love for her became uncontrollable.

Duan Rongshi: "Come here."

"hug me."

If he hadn't been holding a chicken leg in one hand and the other hand was not black.

He wouldn't wait for her to hug him.

He had already held her tightly in his arms.

Li Qingluo didn't realize that her action had made Duan Rongshi feel so soft-hearted again.

But she still came over quickly and hugged him with her arms.

"Ashi."

"Our cooperation this time was pretty seamless, wasn't it?"

"Have I made great progress now?"

"Are you happy?"

Duan Rongshi: "Yes. My Luo'er has grown up. I am very pleased."

Li Qingluo chuckled.

"Just don't be so moved that you want to cry."

Duan Rongshi also raised the corner of his lips slightly: "Okay."

"It's okay to cry for a while."

Li Qingluo looked up in shock.

Duan Rongshi gave her a particularly sincere look.

After eating, Duan Rongshi waited with great enjoyment as Li Qingluo carefully wiped each of his fingers clean.

Then he held her hand tightly in his own.

"Come on, accompany me to end this absurdity."

Li Qingluo nodded heavily: "Yes! Okay!"

It is now Zong Zheng Langri's turn to avenge his mother.

However, when the two of them returned to the tomb, they did not find any trace of Zong Zheng Langri.

In that corner, Li Qingluo had clearly seen him huddled there when he came over just now.

How come he disappeared in just half an hour?

Li Qingluo gestured nervously, "Did he discover us?"

Duan Rongshi looked at the sarcophagus with a sense of realization.

Li Qingluo gestured quickly again: "Do you suspect he found his way into the sarcophagus and lay down there?"

Just check and you will know.

The two of them walked lightly and first moved towards the sarcophagi on the left and right.

However, there was nothing in the sarcophagus!

Finally, Duan Rongshi turned his gaze to the sarcophagus in the middle.

The person lying in the sarcophagus was the late queen.

She is just Zong Zheng Langri's mother.

She is also Duan Rongshi’s maternal grandmother.

Three months ago, he personally helped the Emperor of Chu steal the bones of the late queen and placed them intact in this sarcophagus.

Is it...

However, is there anything that Zong Zheng Langri cannot do?

The two of them immediately thought of this possibility and didn't feel too surprised.

Sure enough, the main sarcophagus was not closed!

This gap is big enough for an adult to squeeze in.

But when and how did he open the sarcophagus?

In order to see clearly inside, Duan Rongshi placed one hand on the lid of the sarcophagus and pushed it hard using his internal strength.

There was a 'boom'.

The lid of the sarcophagus was slowly removed.

Li Qingluo was shocked when he saw the situation inside.

The Emperor of Chu was indeed lying inside!

Moreover, he was lying in the arms of the former queen's bones!

He closed his eyes and did not react to such a loud noise.

Li Qingluo put down the glass piece and took out the night pearl.

Duan Rongshi quickly reached out and felt his breath.

Then he asserted: "He must have fainted from hunger."

Li Qingluo: ...

However, looking at him lying in the arms of the late queen's bones, Li Qingluo had a strange feeling in his heart.

She didn't feel sorry for him.

I just don’t understand, can such a cruel person really have some space in his heart and miss his mother and sister so much?
