Dont worry. No matter what, Ill face it with you and share the burden. I just hope that you can treat me sincerely and let me into your world as well. I dont want you to carry the burden by yourself.
The next day, Princess Royal Cheng Qianye received the guests in her place.
Cheng Qianye waved her hands and had Zhou Xiaoxiao sit by her side.
Youre my only fellow townsman. Lets disregard the rules and just act according to our hometowns etiquette.
Zhou Xiaoxiao listened to her and sat down besides her, telling Cheng Qianye about what she had seen in the modern world.
Cheng Qianye held a jade pot and poured a cup of tea for Zhou Xiaoxiao. She lifted three fingers and lightly patted the table in order to thank her.
Cheng Qianye smiled and said, You even learned of this custom. It seems like you really went to my hometown.
Zhou Xiaoxiao replied, Your hometown is situated in a city that left a deep impression on me. Your hometown contains countless talented people.
So my elder brother is still young as I recalled him to be. Cheng Qianye revealed a longing expression. She lifted the teacup to her lips and gulped the tea along with her worries altogether.
Yu Xingzhi stood up and respectfully paid his respect, Does Your Highness have a way to satisfy both sides? If you are able to let us couple to stay together and not make Xiaoxiao unfilial either, then Xingzhi will do anything needed.
Cheng Qianye glanced at Ye Xingzhi for a moment before unclasping a pendant from her neck. The pendant was light and simple. It had a faint aura around it; it doesnt seem like an ordinary item.
This is the dragons scale. Rumour has it that under the right circumstances, it can connect the two worlds. Ive searched all over and only found this one scale. However, I was unable to find the way to use it after so many years. Now that Yeer is grown up, Im not concerned with this place anymore. Im going to return to my hometown with my husband in a few days and were not coming back. You can have this. Cheng Qianye lightly placed the pendant in Zhou Xiaoxiaos hands.
Your Highness, youre going back? How are you going back? Zhou Xiaoxiao asked confusedly.
I have my own ways. Cheng Qianye smiled and patted her hair. I recall my young self when I see you guys. It makes me think of the past.
The strange light of the dragon scale refracted on her white hair, vaguely revealing her young selfs manner.
When the first snow appeared during the winter, news of the Jiang Countrys Princess Royal had passed away spread.
When the emperor heard this, he weeped and said, Aunt has passed away and abandoned me. I dont have any other relatives now. Because he was overly upset, he hadnt gone to court for half a month.
The Princess Royal had possession of a hot spring courtyard by the west mountain. The mouth of the spring was shaped like the crescent of a moon. The weather was warm there all year long. It was known as the Yuesheng Hot Spring. It was originally imperial property but the emperor bestowed this to the Princess Royal.
There was a unique part to this spring. It was incredibly effective for the injured and those who had hematoma. It could improve ones appearance, relieve cold, and many other uses.
Because Yu Xingzhi had gotten a cold in the water prison, Zhou Xiaoxiao had assisted him in using the hot spring a few times. Even more, Princess Royal had asked the emperor to bestow this hot spring to the Champion Marquis after she passed away.
Lately, there had been strong wind and timely snow had fallen.
Brilliant white snow covered the peak of the west mountain, painting it silver.
Zhou Xiaoxiao comfortably bathed in the hot spring. Her fair shoulders were placed against the edges of the banisters for the hot spring.
She lifted the dragon scale hung around her neck.
It seems like bathing in water doesnt help either. What do I need to do in order to make it a coincidence? Xingzhi, do you think Princess Royal really died or she returned to the modern world?
