Chapter 80 The Abyss
It was probably Su Lingxi's words that really got into Lingling's mind. When she came out of Cai Mansion, she was obviously not as close to Ling Youyao as she was when she came.

Ling Youyao was thinking about Mr. Ronggui's affairs, but she didn't show anything special about it.

People's hearts are separated by belly, and Ling Ling deliberately distanced herself from her, so she didn't need to lick her face anymore.

Lu Bao saw Ling Ling's high-spirited appearance, and said dissatisfiedly: "I really think I am the master, and I am so rude to you!"

"Let her go." Ling Youyao withdrew her gaze and turned to Lanhui Courtyard.

She remembered that Lingling's final ending was neither good nor bad.In the book, Ling Ling did not go to the capital, but married the second son of the Yongchang uncle's mansion in Huaizhou. After giving birth to her daughter, she broke down and was unable to have any more children.

Therefore, Mrs. Bo took two beautiful concubines for her son, and made things difficult for Ling Ling in every possible way.

Knowing that her daughter is not doing well in the Earl's Mansion, Chang came to make trouble, but in the end, for some reason, Lingling reconciled with the second son Cheng.

What happened later, Ling Youyao can't remember, because at that time Fu Mingjue had been cornered by Fu Xiuyun, only one step away from rebellion.
In the original setting of the plot, Lingling did not enter the capital, and Ronggui died a long time ago, but now everything has changed. Lingling came to the capital, Ronggui did not die, but was imprisoned by Fu Mingjue for many years.

Just like the big wedding that day, Fu Mingjue, who was supposed to stand in front of Ling Qingwei's memorial tablet, unexpectedly came to Lanhui Courtyard.

Is it because of her that all these changes?
Ling Youyao's mind was a little confused, and she didn't wake up until she heard Lu Bao's anxious voice next to her ear.

"what happened?"

Lu Bao took her arm, showing worry: "Princess, you can't go ahead, it's getting dark, if you meet something unclean, you'll have nightmares again."

Hearing this, Ling Youyao noticed that she had unknowingly walked to the yard where she saw a ghost last time.

This place is even more desolate and dead than the last time I came here. The dense and towering bamboo forest covers the twilight sky, and the shadow cast by it is like a cage covering this place.

It's not hiding, but captivity.

Fu Mingjue was only eight years old back then, and Ling Youyao couldn't imagine that an eight-year-old child would have the idea of ​​imprisoning his mother, let alone how the young Fu Mingjue managed to hide the truth.

And did the late emperor know about this matter?

The autumn wind shuttled and collided among the bamboo forests, making howls, like a weeping evil spirit.

After stopping for a while, Ling Youyao summoned up her courage and walked over there.

Lu Bao hurriedly grabbed her: "Princess, are you really going? Over there."

"I have to go," Ling Youyao interrupted her, with a serious expression, "You just wait for me outside, if I haven't come out in an hour, you can go and call. That's all, I will come out."

She forgot that this is the palace, and Fu Mingjue knows her every move.

Lu Bao couldn't stop her, so she straightened her back and said, "The servant girl will go with you."

But Ling Youyao rejected her: "Lu Bao, I can only go by myself this time, so you can wait for me here with peace of mind."

The fewer people who know about it, the better.

Seeing her insistence, Lu Bao no longer insisted, but only told her to be careful.

Ling Youyao nodded and went boldly.

When I came back last time, because it was too dark and I was afraid, I ignored many details. Now that I think about it, the female ghost I saw that night was really not like a ghost. She was only dressed in white, so I subconsciously thought it was a ghost.

The courtyard door is locked, but the lock is not rusted, it seems that people often come in and out.

Ling Youyao didn't have a key. After looking around, she stared at the pile of sundries in the distance. Without saying a word, she nimbly climbed up the wall with both hands and feet.

Jiang Liu, who was standing in the dark, couldn't help but twitch his eyes when he saw this scene.

He locked the door, who thought the princess would climb over the wall?He couldn't stop this guy.
After having the experience of being thrown last time, Ling Youyao was more careful this time. She looked left and right, but she didn't have the courage to jump off.

She sat on the wall and looked into the dark room with her eyes wide open. When she saw the pool of dried blood, her heart sank a little.

Could it be that Fu Mingjue really killed someone?

No, she has to hurry in and have a look.
Just thinking about it like this, when I didn't pay attention, the whole person fell instantly——

There was no expected pain, only someone's cold voice: "Over the wall again? Want to break the other hand?"

Ling Youyao was stunned for a moment, looking at Fu Mingjue's sharp chin, feeling a little guilty for some reason: "My lord, so you are here."

"This king is not here, you should fall down."

From the moment Ling Youyao came over, he knew that although he asked Jiang Liu to lock the courtyard door, he never expected that this girl would climb over the wall and come in.

"Tell me, what are you doing here?" Fu Mingjue put her down, his eyes were surprisingly calm, and he didn't look like anything serious happened.

But the more calm he was, Ling Youyao knew that the more depressed he was.

To Fu Mingjue, nobleman Rong is just his mother by blood. He said that he didn't hate the queen mother, but he hated his biological mother very much.

14 years of imprisonment will turn a living person into a ghost, who will be the next person to become a ghost?

Ling Youyao suppressed the restlessness in her heart, and said tentatively: "My lord, I have been tossing and turning these few days, and at night I always think of the female ghost I saw that night. You said, is she really a ghost?"

A faint light flashed in Fu Mingjue's dark pupils, fleeting, subtle and complicated, making it hard to fathom.

He guessed that Ling Youyao would ask, but he didn't expect it to be so straightforward.

After not getting an answer for a long time, Ling Youyao became more and more uneasy. Even though she believed Shen Xuhuai's words in her heart, she still wanted to hear the answer from Fu Mingjue.

Are the people imprisoned here honorable?

As the sky gradually darkened, Fu Mingjue wore black clothes that melted into the night. He seemed to be like this all the time. Except for seeing him in wedding clothes on the day of his wedding, he had never been seen wearing other colors.

It seemed that only in this way could he find a moment of peace of mind.

After a long time, he turned around and looked at the smelly and rotten room, and said in a very low voice, "She is a ghost, a ghost in human skin."

Ling Youyao was startled.

But seeing Fu Mingjue with a slight smile on his lips, he lifted his feet and walked in, his steps were slow, without any hatred, only the joy flickering in his eyes.

"She is a ghost in human skin. She can eat people, drink blood, and even her own children. You say such a person, is she human?"

Just at this time, the cold moon came out of the clouds, and the pale moonlight fell in front of Fu Mingjue, with a slight smile on his beautiful face.

He stood on the steps and said to Ling Youyao: "Come here, I will take you to see what a ghost looks like."

Compared with the evil ghost, Fu Mingjue at this moment is more like a seductive abyss.
