After rebirth, the prince fell into the hands of the princess again

Chapter 42: Confessing Your Identity to Rong Yan

"What is the Lianlishu?" Rong Yan really wanted to know why the Lianlishu shocked Tang Mumu so much.

"Every generation of the Gu Clan has their own life Gu. From the day they come into contact with the Gu worm, they feed the life Gu with their heart blood. Each person can perform a Lian Li Jue once, which means planting their own life Gu into the body of another person. Performing a Lian Li Jue means that they will live and die together with that person in the future. If the other person is in danger, they can exchange their lives for each other's in a critical moment. If the person is not extremely important, they will never perform a Lian Li Jue."

"Master and her have formed a bond, which shows that the Ghost King is a very important person in Master's heart. If one day her life is in danger, Master can use the bond to exchange his life for hers."

"The Life Gu is the most important life gate for the descendants of the Gu Clan. If a relationship is established, it means that the other party can kill the owner of the Life Gu at any time. Once the owner dies, the Life Gu will automatically disappear, and the person planted with the Gu will remain unharmed."

"You're right. When he and I formed a marriage alliance, I thought I was a very important person to him."

The Ghost King was still smiling, but the tears in her eyes were gathering more and more. She was badly injured, and Tang Mumu could see it.

"Did my master treat you badly later? If my master treated you badly, there must be a reason. My master and you have a marriage, which means that you are the one he cares about the most. For you, he can even give up his own life."

"Everything is a lie. Your master is a heartless and unkind person. I don't care about the Lianli technique."

The Ghost King was too excited. Tang Mumu wanted to step forward but was stopped by Rong Yan.

"What is your relationship with my master?"

The Ghost King suddenly became quiet, and after a moment he said, "We once had a child."

"Child?" Tang Mumu was very surprised. His master loved children the most. If he could have his own child, he would definitely be a very good father. "Where is the child now? My master loves children the most..."

"The child is dead, killed by his biological father."

The Ghost King roared with almost all his strength. Tang Mumu stood there in a daze, unable to believe what he heard.

"Killed? How is that possible?" Tang Mumu muttered to herself in a daze. She knew how much her master loved children. If he were a father, he would definitely regard the child as more important than anything else and would not kill the child.

"You misunderstood. My master loves children the most. If he became a father, he would love him so much that he would not kill him. My master once said that there are no parents in this world who don't love their children. You must have misunderstood my master. Come with me. I will take you to find my master and you can clear up the misunderstanding."

The Ghost King suddenly laughed and started crying. Even Rong Yan felt that the cry was mournful. People would only feel so sad when they are in despair.

"I've been looking for him for ten years. If he's still alive, why wouldn't he see me? If it was a misunderstanding, why didn't he explain it to me in the first place? I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be a misunderstanding?"

"I am also looking for my master. I will take you there. I will take you to find him."

Tang Mumu held the Ghost King's hand, her eyes clear. Even the Ghost King felt full of pity when he saw her like this.

"Don't you want Blood Gardenia?" The Ghost King stood up and walked to the desk. He raised his hand and pressed a bulge on the side of the desk, and a solid wooden brocade box popped out.

"This is the Blood Gardenia. Here it is for you."

Tang Mumu carefully took the brocade box and handed it to Rong Yan, and continued to say to the Ghost King: "Master has important things to do now, and I don't know where he is. If you don't want to leave the Ghost Market, I will find Master one day and bring him to you."

"Thank you, little girl. If the child hadn't died, he would have been the same age as you now."

Tang Mumu didn't know what to say to comfort her. She could only swear in her heart that when she found her master, she would ask him the truth about what happened. She still didn't believe that her master would be so cruel as to kill his own child with his own hands.

"Thank you, senior. We will take our leave now."

Rong Yan stood up and saluted, then opened the door and left without waiting for Tang Mumu to catch up. Tang Mumu bowed to the Ghost King again and hurriedly trotted to catch up with Rong Yan.

He didn't say a word along the way, nor did he stop to wait for her. Tang Mumu knew that he was angry. It was not until they left the ghost market that Tang Mumu ran up to him and reached out to stop him.

"I know you're angry, and if you ask me now, I'll tell you everything."

Rong Yan looked at her carefully. It was still the face of Tang Mumu in his memory. He wanted to ask but didn't dare to. He was afraid that the answer he would hear would not be what he wanted. His father had arranged the marriage, but if the person was wrong from the beginning, he didn't even dare to think about what the consequences would be.

"Ask me now, I will tell you everything and I will never lie to you."

As long as Rong Yan asked her, Tang Mumu would tell her everything. She would tell Rong Yan that she was not the real Princess Rong, and she was willing to accompany him to find his wife.

"Are you Tang Mumu?"

"I am Tang Mumu, and I have been called Tang Mumu since I was a child, but I am not the Tang Mumu that the emperor arranged for you to marry. I don't know what happened, but I woke up in the bridal sedan, and I..."

"The king knows."

Seeing him turn around and leave, Tang Mumu became really anxious and stepped forward to grab his sleeve.

"I think we should make things clear. You already know that I'm not your princess, so we should make things clear. I don't want you to misunderstand me as someone with ulterior motives. I also don't want there to be no future between us. If we can't be husband and wife, we should at least be friends."

If they ended like this, Tang Mumu would feel unwilling.

"I don't want to steal someone else's husband. The Second Miss is safe now. Master said that he would let the Second Miss come back after he finishes his work. After that, she can still be your Princess Rong. I have never done anything bad and I don't want you to misunderstand me."

Rong Yan looked at her anxious appearance, not knowing what to do with her. Now he already knew that she was not the second daughter of the general's mansion, not the real Princess Rong, and he also knew her true identity, but he didn't know what to do next.

He only blamed himself for being too slow. He should have discovered that she was not Tang Mumu's. Why did he believe it after just a simple investigation? If he had known earlier, he would have driven her out of the palace without hesitation, but now, he didn't know what to do.

"Don't be silent. What I said is true. I didn't mean to steal you as my husband. When I woke up, I was already in the sedan chair. Later, you wanted to kill me. I felt that you were not a good person, so I dared not reveal my identity."

"Where is the real Tang Mumu?"

"I don't know. Master only said that she is safe now. He didn't tell me where she is. But I think Master may have taken her to Taoyuan Valley. I can take you back to Taoyuan Valley."

"Okay, after I cure my grandmother, you and I will go to Taoyuan Valley."
