Chapter 139 Consolation (2)
Ling Mengqi didn't relax his tense body until he was sure that their master and servant had gone far away, and finally he no longer concealed his inner emotions with a blank face. In fact, at this moment, sadness, Anger, grievance, shame... All kinds of emotions were almost overwhelming him, making him just want to yell and vent immediately.

In the past ten years or so, he has supported him to live with all his strength despite numerous difficulties and dangers. He has never given up practicing martial arts and his positive belief has always been that one day, he will use his own ability to make his father and family face up to his Quang Binh The eldest son of the Hou Mansion, let them all know that he is absolutely worthy of his name, and then take back everything that belongs to him. In comparison, he actually doesn't have much affection for the Marquis of Guangping himself. A father, how could he have a childlike affection for him?
However, the cruel facts now tell him that there is a reason for his father to treat him like that. In fact, his father is the real victim, and he is the most beautiful in his heart. With tears in his heart, he assumed that if she was still alive, he would not have lived such a difficult life. His mother is a woman who abandons her husband and son, and the suffering he has suffered in the past ten years is actually thanks to her. She was the source of all the suffering and humiliation in his life - how could this make him feel bad? !
But he restrained himself after all. The forbearance and introverted temperament he had cultivated since he was a child was on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was thinking that it was already late at night. Those who implicated the Dingguo Mansion, especially Lu Mingxuan, how could he implicate the only Dingguo Mansion that has given him the warmth of home, and the one that is the warmest in his heart, because of a moment of anger? What about Lu Mingxuan, the person for whom he was willing to give his life to wipe the sun?He wouldn't even have the slightest possibility of implicating them!

So even though the frantic emotions in his heart were about to explode, Ling Mengqi finally resisted the urge to yell, and instead, he punched the long case where the shrine and incense burner were placed, "Boom!" " made everything else on the long table clang.

Lu Mingxuan under the altar originally thought that after Concubine Luo's master and servant left, Ling Mengqi also left. She hadn't heard any movement for such a long time is the best proof, and she was planning to move because she was numb from squatting for too long broke his legs, and then left the hall immediately.

Unexpectedly, there was a sudden loud noise above her head, which made her squat unsteadily, and fell to the ground, making a rustling noise, and then she felt her eyes light up, and her neck tightened. It was stuck by a pair of slightly rough hands with thin calluses.

Lu Mingxuan's breathing became difficult all of a sudden, and her eyes turned black again and again. She wanted to yell, "Let me go!" What she heard in her ears was a very small whimpering sound from herself. She wanted to kick hard, However, all the strength in his whole body seemed to be sucked away, and his hands and feet were so limp that he couldn't exert any strength at all.

Fortunately, at the very moment, the hand on her neck was finally released, and then someone supported her, and whispered in her ear: "Sister Xuan, are you okay? Why are you here, I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you, otherwise I wouldn't have made such a cruel move..."

It was Ling Mengqi's voice.

Lu Mingxuan was completely relaxed. At first she thought it was someone else who was strangling her neck. After all, Concubine Luo's trip was such a secret matter. How could the emperor not send someone to clear the place afterwards?That's why there was only one thought in her mind just now, that is, her life is over, and the person who didn't want to pinch her was Ling Mengqi, and she still had the confidence that Ling Mengqi would never hurt her. You don't have to be tense anymore, but gasp for breath.

"Sister Xuan, are you okay? It's all my fault, and I hurt you. I really deserve to die!" Everything just happened in the blink of an eye. Ling Mengqi heard the movement under the altar, secretly Regret that his vigilance has also dropped a lot under the grief and anger, and he didn't even know that there was someone lying in ambush under the altar, so he couldn't let the other person live, otherwise he didn't know how many troubles would arise in the future, which prompted him to follow the warrior's advice Instinctively, he pulled the person out from under the shrine and pinched him on the neck of the other person, making up his mind that today he could only kill someone to silence him.

He never expected that the other party would be Lu Mingxuan, why would she appear here at this hour?
Lu Mingxuan took several mouthfuls of fresh air one after another, and the dryness and pain in her throat eased a bit. Only then did she realize that Ling Mengqi was still half-embracing her. Pushing him away in a hurry, she blushed and said, "I It's okay, Brother Ling, don't worry, and don't blame yourself, you didn't know I was down there beforehand, what's your fault?"

Ling Mengqi didn't feel much better when he heard the words. It's not like he couldn't see the shocking bruise around her thin, fat neck, and couldn't help regretting it. If he had known it was her, he shouldn't have hit her so hard. Yes, it hurts him even more than getting himself stabbed!
After blaming himself for a while, Ling Mengqi remembered that Lu Mingxuan hadn't answered his own question, so he asked again: "How could sister Xuan appear here in the middle of the night? Although it is a pure place of Buddhism, it may not be true. It’s as safe as a copper wall and an iron wall, so sister Xuan should take two people with her.” As he said that, he was afraid for a while, fortunately the person that sister Xuan met was himself, if it was someone else, she would lose her life in vain, he Like Lu Mingxuan, she also thought that it was related to Concubine Luo, and it was such a secret matter, how could the emperor not send someone to clear the scene afterwards?

Lu Mingxuan didn't want to deceive Ling Mengqi, but he really couldn't know the real reason why she came late at night to enshrine the Great Lantern Hall, so she could only pretend to be her late mother and said: "I think it will be my mother's death day soon, So I wanted to come and light an everlasting lamp for her, the reason why I didn't report to the old lady was because I didn't want to cause trouble for her old man, who knows..."

If she knew she would not come, as long as she has her poor child in her heart, what does it matter if she doesn't light the eternal lamp?

Ling Mengqi didn't say what she said after "who knows" for a long time, how could he not know her unfinished intention?After being silent for a while, he smiled wryly and said in a low voice: "Sister Xuan heard what you said just now, right? Why do you catch me every time when I am embarrassed? If this continues, I will have no face to see you again... ..."

It's nothing more than being broken by her to perform on the street in a state of desperation. Anyway, I use my hands and strength to make money. In fact, it's not too shameful; Forget it, I was forced rather than voluntary after all, and I didn't let the eldest prince succeed in the end; but when she found out that I had such a mother who abandoned her husband and son and made a fool of herself, it was useless for him to comfort himself, the so-called "Family ugliness should not be publicized", he has even exposed such a scandal in front of her now, is it true that God is warning him, so that he will not have the slightest thought of her anymore?
