A wicked mother swaps her son and sucks his blood? The true legitimate daughter is reborn and goes o

Beside Song Qingning, Lu's face came into Liu's view.

When Liu saw her, it felt as if a sharp thorn was tearing at her heart.

Before her eyes, Madam Lu no longer appeared sickly. The moment Madam Liu saw her, it was as if she were seeing Madam Lu for the first time many years ago.

She is quiet, elegant, and dignified, possessing the refined air of a noblewoman nurtured by a scholarly family.

She felt ashamed of herself at that time.

The same applies now.

Thinking of Song Qingyan's dejection, Liu glanced down at herself and felt that Song Qingning and Lu were like clouds in the sky, while Song Qingyan and she were like mud on the ground.

This shouldn't be happening!

Over the past decade or so, she has clearly changed everything, but now...

"Sister-in-law should go, but there are no extra carriages. What should we do?"

Lu's voice brought Liu back to her senses.

Madam Liu quickly replied, "It's alright, sister-in-law, it's fine for me to ride with the servants."

"That's all we can do," said Mrs. Lu.

Liu went to the back of the caravan and got into a servant's carriage.

What's wrong with servants and carriages?

As long as she could travel with him, as long as she could witness the deaths of the Lu family and Song Qingning, she could endure it for the time being.

But as soon as the carriage left the capital, she was drenched in cold sweat from the jolting.

"Second Madam, you...you're bleeding."

The old woman riding with him exclaimed in surprise.

The others also hurriedly urged Madam Liu to go back, saying, "Second Madam, your health is important. Why don't you not go?"

"Yes, Second Madam, please don't force yourself. This servant will go and report to the Old Marquis..."

"No, no need!"

Liu hurriedly stopped her.

She forced a smile. "I'm fine, really fine."

The old women looked at the blood seeping from her back and the sweat covering her forehead: "..."

Nothing's wrong? This doesn't look like nothing's wrong!

Seeing Liu's state, the nannies stopped trying to persuade her.

Liu relied entirely on her willpower to stay awake, constantly telling herself that things would be alright once she reached her destination, and the luxurious carriage she would be traveling in would be hers.

Why did Lord Song suddenly want to perform ancestral rites?

Lu and Song Qingning have been staying at their residence these days, not leaving the house, so Shen Ao has no opportunity to make a move.

The only option is to lure them out of the mansion.

Of all the people in the manor, the old Marquis is the only one who is easy to use.

She understood the old Marquis.

She simply sent a message, instructing Yan'er to bribe the steward of the old Marquis's friend, briefly mentioning the ancestral worship ceremony. The old Marquis Song immediately made the decision to proceed.

Three days is enough time for Shen Ao to make his move.

Liu was filled with anticipation that her plan would succeed.

Outside the carriage, Song Shiyin glanced at the carriage where Liu Shi was, then rode his horse to the luxurious carriage and gently knocked on the carriage shaft.

Song Qingning lifted the curtain and peeked out, "Has she arrived?"

She was referring to Song Qingyan.

"arrive!"

As the group set off, the people tracking Song Qingyan reported back that she had already arrived at the ancestral mausoleum ahead of them.

"very good."

Song Qingning smiled slightly.

The sunlight shone on his face, making his smile even brighter and more radiant.

"Mother, brother..." Song Qingning looked at her father on horseback at the front of the procession, "After tomorrow, we can make everything public in the sunlight."

Her voice was very soft.

Inside the carriage, Madam Lu gripped her hand tightly.

At the front of the procession, the Marquis of Yongning on his horse seemed to sense something and turned to look at Song Qingning and Song Shiyin.

The father and his two sons exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with determination.

In the evening, the group arrived near the Song family ancestral tombs.

This place is called Lingshan, and the ancestral tombs of many prominent families in the capital are located here.

Near the ancestral tombs, each family built a manor, so that someone could take care of the tombs and provide temporary accommodation for clansmen when they came to worship.

By the time the carriage arrived at the village, it was already dark.

The group disembarked from the carriage and went to their respective villages to rest.

Lady Liu was the last to disembark from the carriage; the other maids were all busy and forgot about her.

After a day of turmoil, Liu's body was aching, and her back was soaked in blood.

She forced herself to get off the carriage, and after taking only a few steps, she tripped over something.

"What the hell is this..." Liu cursed, and as she was about to get up, her hand grabbed something that looked like a bone.

"Bad luck, bad luck!"

She thought it was just a dead stray dog ​​bone and threw it away in disgust, but then she touched something else, and the texture was like... a human head!

"Second Madam, would you like me to help you?"

The maid's voice came from behind.

Liu looked up and saw an unfamiliar maidservant, with Song Qingning standing beside her.

The maid was carrying a lantern.

Upon seeing Song Qingning, Madam Liu immediately became wary. "No, no need, I can manage on my own!"

After saying that, Liu continued to struggle to get up.

Song Qingning stared at her with great interest, as well as at the pile of...bones beside her.

Perhaps the pain made Liu Shi react slowly, or perhaps she was so focused on guarding against Song Qingning that she had no time to pay attention to anything else.

With great difficulty, Liu managed to get up using the "skull".

"what……"

Suddenly, Dongju, one of the four palace maids, screamed, covered her mouth, and pointed in terror at Liu Shi's feet.

Following her gaze, Liu saw the bones beneath her feet by the light of the lantern, and was so frightened that she held her breath.

Bone, bone.

It wasn't a stray dog ​​bone, but a human skull.

That feeling just now...

Liu felt her legs go weak and she sat back down, unable to move.

He sat down on a pile of bones behind him.

"Second, Second Madam..." Dongju cried out even louder, pushing the lantern forward.

When Liu turned around and saw what was behind her, she was so frightened that she almost fainted.

But she dared not faint, dared not collapse on these skeletons.

Ignoring the pain, Liu scrambled away from the pile of bones, still shaken and feeling increasingly unlucky.

"Who, who threw these remains here? This isn't a mass grave. The family specifically hired people to guard the ancestral tombs on this estate, yet they don't even bother with these unlucky things around here!"

"Guards! Guards!"

Liu cried out in surprise, which quickly attracted the servants of the Marquis's residence.

The servants were also quite frightened when they saw the skeleton.

Lady Liu ordered her servants, "Get rid of this unlucky thing and throw it into the ditch at the foot of the mountain!"

The servant was terrified. "This...isn't this a bad idea?"

He glanced at Song Qingning again, waiting for her to make a decision.

Under the light of the lanterns, Song Qingning's face appeared to be in and out of focus.

The Ye family ancestral mausoleum is also located in Lingshan.

That day, the Ye family carried the bodies of "Ye Shu" and "Chu Yin" to the ancestral mausoleum, but did not actually bury them.

The two tombs in the Ye family ancestral mausoleum are empty.

The Ye family had inquired about what had happened to the two corpses, to which Song Qingning only replied:

"Female corpses may be buried, but male corpses can simply be thrown away."

She never expected it would be left here.

Song Qingning glanced at the broken leg bones on the skeleton and was certain that it belonged to Song Mingtang!

Did Madam Liu not recognize Song Mingtang and even want to throw away his remains?

Ah!

Song Qingning laughed sarcastically.

Upon hearing the laughter, Madam Liu paused, startled. "What are you laughing at?"

Song Qingning was mocking her.

To mock her earlier embarrassment?

Song Qingning did not answer her, her smile remaining sarcastic.

Liu Shi grew increasingly angry, but unable to vent her anger on Song Qingning, she became even more determined to make these corpses pay the price.

Liu screamed at the servants:

"What are you all staring at her for? I told you to throw this jinx into the ditch at the foot of the mountain! Now get to it!"
