The Love Imagination System

Part 39: The First Wife

A crazy person is a person who loses his mind, or a person whose brain does not function normally like a normal human being. But, the definition of a madman was different if it was given to the figure of Liu Qingyi. The true definition of madness is much crazier than any madman in the world.

Armed with the system information and a bit of her memory, Qingyi sneaks out of the mansion night-night and goes to the burial place.

He used the science of lightening the body to jump from one roof to another. Qingyi was like a wild wolf wandering under the light of the full moon. After a long time, he arrived at a family funeral.

Before entering, he looked around and made sure no one was there. Qingyi walked into the burial area located on the edge of the forest.

The clothes he was wearing were the new costumes of the system, so light and comfortable that it made it easier for Qingyi to move. His hand held a flashlight and he shone it onto the path that was just that.

Qingyi arrived in front of a mound of stone that had a headstone. The letter was ancient mandarin, then he narrowed his eyes and spelled the writing.

The headstone read “Wang Lingshan” it managed to read in ten seconds. Qingyi leaned over her body, then glanced at the year of death stamped on the gravestone.

“So, this is the tomb of first wife Baili Qingchen?” qingyi Mumbles.

He's completely insane. A woman, of noble status, even visited the grave of a midnight man alone! Well, even though Yinghao was on his shoulders, but still.

Most women are afraid of scary things, and most avoid funerals. But, Qingyi instead went there alone as if the place was a tourist spot.

Absolutely insane!

“Master, you'll dismantle it?” ask Yinghao.

“I'm not that crazy until I have to dismantle people's graves,” Qingyi replied.

She thought that the death of her husband's first male wife had something to do with Consort Sun's widow, and that was why her relationship with Baili Qingchen was tenuous despite looking fine on the surface. This is understandable.

Consort Dowager Sun definitely could not accept the fact that her only son had abnormal interests like men in general. Moreover, he was a prince titled king, the younger brother of the previous emperor. Although Baili Qingchen's father agreed to it, Consort Sun's widow did not necessarily have the same thought.

Which mother wants her child to be abnormal? Consort Sun's widow was devastated at the time. His son chose to marry a man instead of being the son-in-law of a high minister.

In fact, the girl that was nominated for her earlier was very beautiful and talented. Baili Qingchen was not tempted and instead chose her comrades in arms.

Qingyi just found out that this person named “Wang Lingshan” is the son of a great general before. He joined the military and followed Baili Qingchen since childhood, then grew up together. It was just that Qingyi did not really understand why Baili Qingchen chose her among thousands of men who were more beautiful than women.

“Then, what will you do?”

“I just want to know what weapon Dowager Consort Sun used to kill him.”

Is it poison? Well, in times like these, poison becomes the only powerful weapon to kill someone. Many types of poison left no trace after reacting, until the healer could not examine them.

It was possible that the person in this grave was also poisoned to death. Because it has been a long time and has become a bone, investigation or identification can not be done again.

If it couldn't get an answer for not being able to investigate, then Qingyi would have asked the source directly. He looked up, looking at the moonlight for a moment.

Qingyi bowed in honor of the tomb, then walked out of the burial area in quick steps. The flashlight in his hand continued to highlight illuminating the path, accompanying him until he jumped up and down on the roof.

...***...

Harem Palace is silent at night. Consort Sun's Palace, located not far from the palace of Empress Dowager Ming, was bright with candles still burning. The owner of the palace had just finished cleaning himself up after tired of hosting the other palace women in the imperial garden.

When he was about to turn off the candle, a voice made him alert. Not long after, the door of his palace opened and a familiar woman was standing looking at him.

The woman walked over, with an expression that was difficult to decipher. Consort Sun's widow and her servant frowned, not knowing what this woman meant here at midnight.

Qingyi then smiled her smile, then replied, “I want to get an answer from you.”

“What answer?”

“About the death of King Changle's first wife. You killed him, didn't you?”

Dowager Consort Sun was shocked. However, he immediately controlled himself. This is no secret, for even his own son knew it.

His son chose to pretend and act ordinary, although Consort Sun's widow clearly knew that her son was hurt. His relationship with Baili Qingchen had only improved upon the arrival of Xiao Junjie, and it felt like it was quite a relief for him.

Seeing Qingyi who had come in the middle of the night, without any manners, made Dowager Consort Sun sigh. He told his servant to go out and close the door.

Consort Dowager Sun had Qingyi sit in front of him, so that he could see the girl's face well. He did not pay attention to it well because of the actions of Emperor Baili.

“Who told you?” ask Dowager Consort Sun.

“Nothing. King Changle said a few words to me that explained about your relationship. So, I found out for myself,” Qingyi replied.

If it was anyone else, that person would have already been dragged into the basement and beaten to death. Consort Sun's widow is most sensitive when it comes to the death of King Changle's first wife. Qingyi's guess was right, she indeed could not accept the fact that her son was troubled. Moreover, the person he chose was not worth his background.

However, Dowager Consort Sun had dropped her trust in Qingyi. He stared at his daughter-in-law intensely, looking for a hidden doubt and fear. Honey, he didn't find it. Consort Dowager Sun only saw an honest look of eyes that were not blocked by anything.

“You're not afraid I'll kill you too?” the Dowager Consort Sun asked, he tried to test his daughter-in-law.

“If I die in your hands, it will only make it clear that you cannot accept the reality of your son's condition,” Qingyi replied without the slightest fear. Dowager Consort Sun laughed.

“Really, interesting girl. You're lucky that I've dropped my trust in you.”

“Then, can you now tell me why?”

Consort Dowager Sun then explained the reason. He put away his son's first wife on purpose because of a wish, that his son would return to his old age. However, he regretted that his estimate was wrong.

His son could not change, and slowly Dowager Consort Sun began to be able to accept him. That was why he was now so tolerant and affectionate towards Xiao Junjie, even though he did not really think of him as a son-in-law and only as his son's companion.

Qingyi cheered as her conjecture was right. Consort Sun's widow was indeed not simple, just as Baili Qingchen had said. Qingyi was lucky because she had earned her trust. Otherwise, tonight maybe he's already a corpse in the basement.

“I didn't expect much. I just want my son to live peacefully, whether it's with you, Xiao Junjie, or you two,” Consort Sun's widow said at the end of the story.

Qingyi deliberately did not respond because her existence here was only temporary. The peace that Consort Dowager Sun wanted could not be promised.

Qingyi pampered after Dowager Consort Sun finished her story. He jumped over the roof with no one to see. After a few minutes, he arrived at the mansion. However, due to drowsiness, Qingyi mistakenly landed. His feet did not tread in the western courtyard, but rather the eastern courtyard where Baili Qingchen was located.

The man was astonished to see his wife standing in the courtyard in strange clothes. Qingyi turned her head, then clashed with Baili Qingchen for a moment before turning her eyes to each other. That guy didn't see him fly over the roof just now, did he?

“Where have you been?” ask Baili Qingchen. Earlier, Cui Kong told that Princess Empress Changle came out secretly.

“Stana. Oh, I'm sleepy. Your Majesty, I'll borrow your room for a moment. Wake me when the sun is up,” Qingyi replied. He nodded in regardless of Baili Qingchen's reaction.

That girl is always cool!

“Do not enter!” prevent Baili Qingchen.

Qingyi's eyes were already very heavy, she paid no heed to Baili Qingchen's ban and went straight into her room. The western courtyard was too far away, he might instantly sleep on the street if forced.
