Marrying a playboy? She turned the tables and used a magical talisman to become famous throughout th

"Liuli, what do you see?"

Yin Liuli raised her chin.

"This package is for the deceased. Look at that half-burnt incense stick inside..."

Gu Jinyan then noticed that three half-burnt incense sticks were mixed in with the pastries and ashes.

He looked up at Yin Liuli, a strange tremor running through his heart.

"What...does this mean?"

"When the living offer sacrifices to the dead, it is most taboo to stop burning incense. Fruits and snacks are placed there for the deceased to enjoy."

Just like us, we're having a perfectly good meal, and then someone asks to overturn the table. Who would be happy about that?

Therefore, once the three incense sticks are lit, they must not be broken halfway through, no matter the reason, otherwise it will incur the resentment of the deceased spirits.

Gu Jinyan gasped.

"You mean, my mother disturbed the spirits of the dead?"

Yin Liuli snorted coldly.

"The contents of this bundle are all tainted with resentment. If she removed these incense sticks, it would not only disturb the spirits of the dead."

I hope what she said about digging up graves was just an angry outburst, otherwise…”

"Snap"

Gu Jinyan grabbed her wrist and asked in a serious tone,

"What else would happen?"

Yin Liuli looked up at him.

"Digging up graves and tombs will not allow the souls of the dead to rest in peace. It's like if I beat you up, I'll make sure you die a horrible death."

What you do, that is what the dead will do.

Gu Jinyan's lips trembled slightly, "My mother..."

Yin Liuli said calmly,

"It seems that this deceased person had some connection with your father."

The matter originated with your father, and his spirit, venting its resentment, will certainly not only target your mother.

Gu Jinyan, you'd better find out the reason for this before you can handle it.

Gu Jinyan frowned deeply. "Liuli, wait for me to come back."

Yin Liuli nodded.

She asked Gu Jinyan to come to the villa to meet her, originally intending to talk to him about Yin Yuzhu and Cheng Yi.

She suspected that Yin Yuzhu deliberately approached Princess Chengyi and had planted someone by Chengyi's side.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yi offended a ghost.

The contents of the bundle were tainted with a strong sense of resentment.

She didn't care whether Cheng Yi lived or died, but she couldn't ignore the possibility of Gu Jinyan's father being dragged into this mess.

……

Gu Jinyan left in a hurry.

"Well……"

Chu Lingyun patted Yin Liuli's arm and gave her a comforting look.

Yin Liuli sighed softly.

"Senior Brother, Gu Jinyan's mother is the eldest princess. He has been pampered since childhood and is arrogant and domineering."

I just didn't expect her to be so audacious as to even harm the dead.

Chu Lingyun shook her head slightly, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes.

He originally thought that his junior sister would enjoy endless wealth and glory after marrying Gu Jinyan.

But seeing Princess Chengyi's unreasonable and domineering manner, his heart clenched tightly.

With such a domineering mother-in-law, will the junior sister have a good life in the future?

Gu Jinyan now dotes on her immensely, even going so far as to defy his princess mother for her sake.

But as time goes by, or when Junior Sister grows old and loses her beauty, will Gu Jinyan still be willing to defy the world for her?

Chu Lingyun felt a sharp pain in her heart.

He only hated his own incompetence.

If there were a way to help his junior sister get through this ordeal safely, he would want to take her back to Xuanqing Temple right now!

"Senior Brother, are you worried about me?"

Yin Liuli saw deep worry in his eyes, and a warm feeling washed over her.

She tilted her head to look at him, and then laughed.

"I'm not afraid of Princess Chengyi. No matter how fierce she is, she can't do anything to me."

If she dares to bully me, I can take care of her with a single talisman. Don't worry about me!

Chu Lingyun nodded, a bitter smile playing on her lips.

The junior sister is innocent and straightforward.

During her twelve years at Xuanqing Temple, with her master and her five fellow disciples protecting her, she had never witnessed the wickedness of human nature.

I wonder how painful it will be for her when she finally sees it.

……

Soon after, Gu Jinyan took Gu Fanghan back to the villa.

Gu Fanghan looked haggard, but still maintained her gentle and refined demeanor, and said with a wry smile,

"I'm troubled by family matters; please excuse my behavior, my two young friends."

Yin Liuli shook her head and asked with concern,

"Uncle Gu, what exactly happened between you and the princess? Can you tell Liuli?"

A hint of helplessness flashed in Gu Fanghan's eyes as she waved her hand and said,

"This is a matter between Yan'er's mother and me, and I will find a way to resolve it..."

Gu Jinyan frowned and said,

"If Father and Mother are having a normal argument, your son and Liuli will not interfere."

But this concerns your safety, you can't not tell me!

My father was well-read and never believed in ghosts or spirits, so he didn't tell my father about the ghosts on the way.

I finally managed to persuade my father to return to the villa; I had no choice but to say something.

A look of confusion flashed across Gu Fanghan's face.

"You know your mother's temperament, so what does it have to do with her safety?"

Is she going to go to the Emperor and complain about me?

"Uncle Gu, could you please give me a single word?"

Yin Liuli looked at him with her clear eyes and said calmly, "I can guess the general meaning from any word."

Gu Fanghan asked in surprise,

"You know how to interpret characters? Forget it, I've never believed in that..."

Yin Liuli's attitude was firm.

"Believe it or not, let me figure it out first."

Gu Jinyan hurriedly begged,

"Father, Liuli is not the kind of person who pretends to be a ghost or a fortune teller, as you think!"

She was skilled in talismans and divination. When the prime minister's granddaughter went missing, it was she who used divination to determine her location and rescue her.

A look of surprise flashed across Gu Fanghan's face. She paused for a moment before speaking.

"Then, let's just talk about love."

Gu Jinyan had previously said that the prime minister's granddaughter was saved by Yin Liuli, but he did not say that she was saved using mystical arts.

"Character……"

Yin Liuli pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked up and said,

"With hearts set on returning to the earth, separated by life and death, the living are left heartbroken, and the dead are left with resentment."

Uncle Gu once owed a great debt of gratitude to someone, and that person was probably a woman…

Before she could finish speaking, Gu Fanghan's body trembled slightly.

Yin Liuli said slowly,

"This man died a violent death, filled with resentment. Although he was not killed by Uncle Gu, he was still inextricably linked to Uncle Gu."

If Liuli isn't mistaken, she often appears in Uncle Gu's dreams, am I right?

"Miss Liuli, you...you..."

Gu Fanghan's gentle eyes were instantly filled with shock.

Ignoring the shock on his face, Yin Liuli said coldly,

"Uncle Gu, her soul was filled with resentment and her anger lingered, preventing her from being reborn."

Now, after Princess Chengyi's outburst, their resentment has reached its peak.

Once they return, they will be vengeful ghosts seeking to claim lives.

Gu Fanghan was stunned.

After a long while, he slowly turned his eyes, which were now bloodshot.

Gu Jinyan asked softly, "Father, what exactly happened?"

"Liuli, the woman you mentioned..."

Two lines of tears suddenly rolled down Gu Fanghan's cheeks, and her voice choked with emotion.

"Back then, I let her down, so it's understandable that she harbors resentment towards me."
