The ancestral mausoleum of the Shi family was a treasure place with good geomantic omen in the northern suburbs of the capital city.
It was said to be the ancestral mausoleum, but in fact, only Shi Lei was buried here.
However, Shi Lei was far-sighted and cleaned up the large ground, saying that it would be the place for all the family members to rest in peace in the future.
The geographic position of the ancestral mausoleum was wonderful indeed, with a broad view, and it was quiet yet not too horrible.
Every time Shi Qingxue came to pay respect to her grandpa, she would give him thumbs up.
“You know what? I hated here most when I was young. I always thought that this place took my grandpa away from me. On Tomb-Sweeping Day and the Winter Solstice every year, I was unwilling to come here then. And I came here while sobbing only after Father had to tell me to kneel in the ancestral hall as a punishment.” Looking at the familiar surroundings, Shi Qingxue softly told Mo Junyang about her naïve and sincere thoughts when she was a child.
When she recalled the days, she still felt sad.
Even now, the ancestral mausoleum was still a place which made her sorrowful. “But after I grow up, I know that Grandpa’s death was inevitable, so I don’t bother about it anymore, and meanwhile I want to be buried here after I die in the future. Then I can accompany Grandpa all the time.”
In the beginning, Mo Junyang silently listened to Shi Qingxue talking about the stories that he didn’t know and wanted to know more. Till she said that she would be buried here, too, he finally couldn’t control himself.
However, he didn’t want Qingxue to see through his selfish thought, so he just replied in a muffled voice, “Oh.”
Shi Qingxue was not a fool. Mo Junyang knew most about her. Perhaps she didn’t know so much about him, yet she was the one who knew most about him absolutely.
She turned her head and saw Mo Junyang who was obviously unhappy but restrained himself and didn’t express it. She felt angry and meanwhile was amused. She was just impatient as he held back his emotions.
If she didn’t know earlier that Mo Junyang was like this, she might want to ignore this guy who tried to hide his jealousy.
Nevertheless, she pondered seriously for a while and then suggested in a low voice, “The environment is nice here. In the future…I mean…”
She tried hard to find proper words and then stressed each word to explain. “If there is a chance, would you like to be buried with me in the same grave here?”
She said that, like to “invite him to die together with her”, and to Mo Junyang, it was like the sound from heaven.
His gloomy eyes lit up at once seemingly and he suddenly looked at Shi Qingxue. Then he nodded seriously.
Shi Qingxue was nervous when she spoke, yet she got relieved and smiled slowly later. She didn’t turn to Mo Junyang but looked out of the window, mumbling, “It’s great to be buried in the same grave after death.”
Mo Junyang certainly agreed without hesitation.
“However, we need to discuss something first.” Shi Qingxue suddenly thought of something and got serious. She stared at Mo Junyang and demanded solemnly, “You can’t, you can’t…”
“What?” Even though Mo Junyang knew well about Shi Qingxue, he couldn’t know everything that was on her mind.
After Shi Qingxue started to speak, she found that it was difficult to mention that thing. She stuttered for a long time and then closed her eyes, saying quickly, “If I die before you, you can’t do the same as before.”
“Do the same” meant that in the previous life, Mo Junyang refused to bury Shi Qingxue after she died yet told Shen Luo to protect her dead body with a special method. Then her corpse didn’t decay but she was intact like sleeping.
Fine. Although she looked beautiful indeed, it was scary.
Mo Junyang even “hugged” her while sleeping every night, which scared her, a “ghost”, with her body hair standing on end…Later, even Shen Luo was unable to continue to protect her corpse, and she thought that Mo Junyang would finally bury her.
However, this “weirdo” still didn’t give up unexpectedly. At last, he would rather hug the white bones while sleeping every night than let her go.
Shi Qingxue didn’t want to judge if Mo Junyang was right to be so persistent in the previous life, nor was she afraid that he would make her a mummification. She just didn’t want him to repeat his life.
It was not nice.
And in this life, she was willing to give him all the nice things.
Mo Junyang stayed silent. He had never thought of the possibility then that Shi Qingxue was still “alive”, so he did many things…that he couldn’t speak out to “Shi Qingxue”.
Unexpectedly, Shi Qingxue had witnessed everything.
His thick-skinned face blushed rarely.
“Okay. I agree with you.” Mo Junyang’s voice was deep and hoarse, with resolution seemingly.
Shi Qingxue indistinctly noticed that it was weird, but she thought that he agreed with her, so she didn’t ask more. And she didn’t know what decision Mo Junyang made at the moment.
“Speaking of being buried in the same grave, I am confused all the time. After Grandpa passed away, his grave was fully closed and he didn’t plan to be buried with Grandma.” Shi Qingxue talked about the stories in her family, like making small talk.
In the past, she didn’t understand why Shi Lei was so insistent on this matter alone after he and Mo Shujun loved each other for a lifetime.
Shi Lei even told Mo Shujun to be buried in the royal mausoleum with her honorable identity as a princess royal after she died. He seemed to consider for his wife, but now, Shi Qingxue thought that this arrangement was strange.
Shouldn’t a couple in deep love want to be buried in the same grave after they died as they slept together when they were alive?
Even Mo Junyang who was so weird didn’t escape from this assumption. Why did Shi Lei ask Mo Shujun to enter the royal mausoleum and even try not to let them see each other forever?
“Isn’t it surprising?” Shi Qingxue couldn’t figure it out.
Mo Junyang looked at her and asked in reply with a faint smile, “Maybe this is exactly what Elder Duke Shi meant? He had been fed up when he was alive, so he would never see her after he died.”
He was never stingy to conjecture others’ evil intentions, and his inference made Shi Qingxue have goose bumps all over her body.
Shi Qingxue opened her mouth and wanted to retort, yet thinking that she knew more about Mo Shujun’s moral quality these days, she suddenly couldn’t find a reason to retort.
If she were Shi Lei, she would probably divorce Mo Shujun who was like this.
“Oh! She is an honorable princess royal, and perhaps he couldn’t get a divorce.” Qingxue pursed her lips and didn’t conceal her disgust for Mo Shujun.
Shi Qingxue said that casually and took it as a joke.
After Mo Junyang heard that, the fierce light in his eyes flashed, and he smiled knowingly.
However, he didn’t explain to Shi Qingxue about his reaction but changed the subject. “We have arrived. Let’s get out to have a look.”
There was a large area in the ancestral mausoleum of the Shi family, and carriages and horses were not allowed to enter.
As soon as they got to the mud fence, Shi Qingxue and Mo Junyang got out of the carriage and walked.
Shi Lei’s grave was in the middle of the area. After walking for about thirty minutes, they finally reached the destination.
Shi Lei’s grave should be in perfect order and cleaned by the grave keepers every day, yet it was ruined and had changed beyond recognition.
There were fallen leaves and loess around the grave, which was desolate and cheerless.
What was more unacceptable, the tombstone was pushed down and broken into two parts, lying on the ground, while the grave mound behind it was dug up, revealing a corner of the coffin which was buried deeply in the soil.
Shi Qingxue was petrified by the messy scene which was ruined wantonly. After a long time, she called in a daze, “Grandpa!”
As soon as she made the sound, tears fell from her eyes.
Why did it happen?
Shi Qingxue had this question flashing in her brain repeatedly, and she was stiff, unable to move a bit.
Mo Junyang was shocked, too. He had never expected that Elder Duke Shi’s grave would be destroyed, but soon he calmed down and supported Shi Qingxue, asking in a soft voice, “Qingxue, are you okay?”
Qingxue suddenly came back to earth and turned to Mo Junyang, exploding.
She grabbed his clothes and yelled at him emotionally, “Why did it happen? Who did it? I won’t let him go! I will surely make him pay for it.”
When she was speaking, more tears fell. She was so fragile, greatly different from the girl who yelled emotionally. Looking at her, Mo Junyang felt heartbroken.
He hurriedly held her in his arms and comforted her. “Don’t be afraid. I will help you.”
Mo Junyang was a doer. As soon as he finished his words, he winked at Wei Zichao, who directly lifted the grave keeper with one hand and dragged him over.
The grave keeper’s family name was Wang, and he was once a servant in the Shi family. After Elder Duke Shi passed away, Mo Shujun chose him and told him to guard the grave in the ancestral mausoleum. He mainly cleaned Shi Lei’s grave daily apart from preventing the grave robbers from stealing something.
Unexpectedly, this grave keeper Wang didn’t clean Shi Lei’s grave from time to time as requested but dared to be forgetful of his duties and let the grave be destroyed miserably.
As soon as she saw this quivering middle-aged man, Shi Qingxue got furious.
She strode forward and grabbed the grave keeper from Wei Zichao’s hand, questioning angrily, “What on earth happened? Why did Grandpa’s grave become like this? Tell me!”
The grave keeper trembled in fear and didn’t dare to look at Shi Qingxue’s face which seemed to eat him alive. He stuttered to beg for mercy. “My Lady, please spare my life. I, I…”
He wanted to defend himself, while the fact was before their eyes. He had never expected that Shi Qingxue would come all of a sudden, so he was not prepared and couldn’t speak a word.
Shi Qingxue was so mad that she threw him to the ground and impulsively took out a long knife from Wei Zichao’s waist. She raised it high and prepared to cut the grave keeper’s head.
Wei Zichao remained unmoved and didn’t plan to stop her.
Anyway, no matter what Shi Qingxue did on impulse, right or wrong, good or bad, Mo Junyang would take the responsibility. And the guards like him didn’t need to worry. They just had to satisfy Shi Qingxue at any time.
This grave keeper who fell asleep at the switch should be killed even in an ordinary family.
Shi Qingxue could just kill him if she wanted to.
When the long knife was almost less than one meter away from the grave keeper’s head and the man closed his eyes, awaiting his doom, everything stopped suddenly.
It turned out that Mo Junyang grabbed Shi Qingxue’s hand and stopped her.
Shi Qingxue abruptly turned to Mo Junyang, with bright tears in her eyes and on her face. She seemed to question him why he prevented her from killing this asshole.
Mo Junyang patted the back of Qingxue’s hand and comforted her quietly. At the same time, he still grasped her hand and resolutely stopped her.
Because Shi Qingxue trusted him beyond description, she controlled herself and didn’t move, even though she was so angry.
The grave keeper had thought that he could hardly escape from the disaster this time, but at the crucial moment, he was saved unexpectedly.
When he looked at Mo Junyang, he seemed to see God and a savior from heaven.
He staggered to get up and knelt on the ground, kowtowing to Mo Junyang to thank him. “Thanks for sparing my lowly life, Master. Thanks, Master…”
As a matter of fact, the grave keeper didn’t know Mo Junyang, yet anybody who could save him was his master. He kowtowed crazily and seemed to take Mo Junyang as his second parent.
In the beginning, Mo Junyang ignored the grave keeper. Till Shi Qingxue calmed down, his head was bleeding as he had kowtowed for so many times.
Mo Junyang finally lowered his head and gave the grave keeper a cold glance. Then he asked indifferently, “Who told you to dig up Elder Duke Shi’s grave and destroy his tombstone?”
The grave keeper’s grateful expression was frozen on his face. After realizing what Mo Junyang meant, he looked awkward and explained away in a hurry. “No, I didn’t. The grave was not…”
He couldn’t form a full sentence and just told a very poor lie which revealed the truth.
Shi Qingxue was stunned by Mo Junyang’s shocking words at first. Then she gazed at the grave keeper all of a sudden. After seeing his reactions, she understood everything immediately.
Her flame of anger was overwhelming, and she threw away the long knife. Then she grabbed the grave keeper’s collar and suddenly punched his face, cursing resentfully, “Asshole! Bastard! Give my grandpa back to me!”
The grave keeper was beaten and then fell on the ground, while Shi Qingxue still didn’t let him go. She kicked him and questioned, “Tell me. Who on earth told you to do that?”

After walking for about thirty minutes, they finally reached the destination.Shi Lei's grave should be in perfect order and cleaned by the grave keepers every day, yet it was ruined and had changed beyond recognition.There were fallen leaves and loess around the grave, which was desolate and cheerless.What was more unacceptable, the tombstone was pushed down and broken into two parts, lying on the ground, while the grave mound behind it was dug up, revealing a corner of the coffin which was buried deeply in the soil.Shi Qingxue was petrified by the messy scene which was ruined wantonly. After a long time, she called in a daze, Grandpa!As soon as she made the sound, tears fell from her eyes.Why did it happen?Shi Qingxue had this question flashing in her brain repeatedly, and she was stiff, unable to move a bit.Mo Junyang was shocked, too. He had never expected that Elder Duke Shi's grave would be destroyed, but soon he calmed down and supported Shi Qingxue, asking in a soft voice, Qingxue, are you okay?Qingxue suddenly came back to earth and turned to Mo Junyang, exploding.She grabbed his clothes and yelled at him emotionally, Why did it happen? Who did it? I won't let him go! I will surely make him pay for it.When she was speaking, more tears fell. She was so fragile, greatly different from the girl who yelled emotionally. Looking at her, Mo Junyang felt heartbroken.He hurriedly held her in his arms and comforted her. Don't be afraid. I will help you.Mo Junyang was a doer. As soon as he finished his words, he winked at Wei Zichao, who directly lifted the grave keeper with one hand and dragged him over.The grave keeper's family name was Wang, and he was once a servant in the Shi family. After Elder Duke Shi passed away, Mo Shujun chose him and told him to guard the grave in the ancestral mausoleum. He mainly cleaned Shi Lei's grave daily apart from preventing the grave robbers from stealing something.Unexpectedly, this grave keeper Wang didn't clean Shi Lei's grave from time to time as requested but dared to be forgetful of his duties and let the grave be destroyed miserably.As soon as she saw this quivering middle-aged man, Shi Qingxue got furious.She strode forward and grabbed the grave keeper from Wei Zichao's hand, questioning angrily, What on earth happened? Why did Grandpa's grave become like this? Tell me!The grave keeper trembled in fear and didn't dare to look at Shi Qingxue's face which seemed to eat him alive. He stuttered to beg for mercy. My Lady, please spare my life. I, IHe wanted to defend himself, while the fact was before their eyes. He had never expected that Shi Qingxue would come all of a sudden, so he was not prepared and couldn't speak a word.Shi Qingxue was so mad that she threw him to the ground and impulsively took out a long knife from Wei Zichao's waist. She raised it high and prepared to cut the grave keeper's head.Wei Zichao remained unmoved and didn't plan to stop her.Anyway, no matter what Shi Qingxue did on impulse, right or wrong, good or bad, Mo Junyang would take the responsibility. And the guards like him didn't need to worry. They just had to satisfy Shi Qingxue at any time.This grave keeper who fell asleep at the switch should be killed even in an ordinary family.Shi Qingxue could just kill him if she wanted to.When the long knife was almost less than one meter away from the grave keeper's head and the man closed his eyes, awaiting his doom, everything stopped suddenly.It turned out that Mo Junyang grabbed Shi Qingxue's hand and stopped her.Shi Qingxue abruptly turned to Mo Junyang, with bright tears in her eyes and on her face. She seemed to question him why he prevented her from killing this asshole.Mo Junyang patted the back of Qingxue's hand and comforted her quietly. At the same time, he still grasped her hand and resolutely stopped her.Because Shi Qingxue trusted him beyond description, she controlled herself and didn't move, even though she was so angry.The grave keeper had thought that he could hardly escape from the disaster this time, but at the crucial moment, he was saved unexpectedly.When he looked at Mo Junyang, he seemed to see God and a savior from heaven.He staggered to get up and knelt on the ground, kowtowing to Mo Junyang to thank him. Thanks for sparing my lowly life, Master. Thanks, MasterAs a matter of fact, the grave keeper didn't know Mo Junyang, yet anybody who could save him was his master. He kowtowed crazily and seemed to take Mo Junyang as his second parent.In the beginning, Mo Junyang ignored the grave keeper. Till Shi Qingxue calmed down, his head was bleeding as he had kowtowed for so many times.Mo Junyang finally lowered his head and gave the grave keeper a cold glance. Then he asked indifferently, Who told you to dig up Elder Duke Shi's grave and destroy his tombstone?The grave keeper's grateful expression was frozen on his face. After realizing what Mo Junyang meant, he looked awkward and explained away in a hurry. No, I didn't. The grave was notHe couldn't form a full sentence and just told a very poor lie which revealed the truth.Shi Qingxue was stunned by Mo Junyang's shocking words at first. Then she gazed at the grave keeper all of a sudden. After seeing his reactions, she understood everything immediately.Her flame of anger was overwhelming, and she threw away the long knife. Then she grabbed the grave keeper's collar and suddenly punched his face, cursing resentfully, Asshole! Bastard! Give my grandpa back to me!The grave keeper was beaten and then fell on the ground, while Shi Qingxue still didn't let him go. She kicked him and questioned, Tell me. Who on earth told you to do that?
