Chapter 513 Is she dead?
"Second Aunt, you are such a good stepmother." Xiao Jiuyue returned to her yard. She felt particularly relaxed. The whole family had no calculations and moved forward as a team. It was good.
"Yes, the Second Madam has put in a lot of effort to ensure that the Second Miss has a good home." Luo Kui poured tea for Xiao Jiuyue and asked curiously if there was anything exciting happening in the palace.
Xiao Jiuyue teased her deliberately: "There are some special things in the palace, for example, Feng Yan..."
"Does Feng Yan want to bully the young lady again?" Luo Kui's eyes were filled with anger when he heard Feng Yan's name, and he wanted to fight with Feng Yan.
"Don't worry, from now on, Feng Yan will never be able to bully the young lady by relying on her status as a concubine." Lian Xin covered her mouth and chuckled. Looking at Luo Kui's expression as if she wanted to know the truth, she suddenly found it particularly funny. She should go to Wa City and the teahouse. The gossip there is the freshest in Shengjing every day.
"Lianxin, stop laughing and tell me something quickly. I'm so anxious." Luokui was impatient and spoke anxiously.
Lianxin pulled Luokui out of the door to avoid disturbing Xiao Jiuyue. Not long after, Xiao Jiuyue heard Luokui's shocked voice, which kept coming into the house.
Tomorrow's hunting is really exciting!
Xiao Jiuyue fell asleep early, and as soon as she fell asleep, she began to dream. In the dream, she was dead. A man in black was holding her body and walking on endless stairs, going up step by step.
The sky was gray and the rain was pouring, but the man protected her body well. He walked up the endless stairs step by step with firm steps.
One step, one step, and another step...
It was unknown how much time had passed, the man's feet were bleeding, but he still showed no sign of letting go of her body.
This scene made Xiao Jiuyue feel heartbroken. How long would he be gone?
“Stop it now.”
Xiao Jiuyue screamed. She woke up and opened her eyes. Looking at the familiar boudoir, she covered her chest with her hands, her heart aching, as if she was still immersed in a dream. Who was that man? Was she dead?
Xiao Jiuyue was hugging the quilt. The person's back looked very sad, but how did she die?
She looked around blankly at the darkness.
"Miss, are you awake?" Dong Gui, who was on night watch, hurried into the room and lit a candle. The faint candlelight made the room a little brighter. Dong Gui looked at Xiao Jiuyue, who was clutching the quilt. "Did you have a nightmare? Have some tea to calm your nerves."
"Okay." Xiao Jiuyue responded and took the tea from Donggui. The warm tea slowly sobered her up and she began to look for details. The man was wearing a long black robe, and only his back could be seen, not his face. But...
Could this be the previous life?
Xiao Jiuyue lay back down, wanting to continue dreaming, but she couldn't wake up no matter what.
The next day, at dawn, Xiao Jiuyue approached Hua Qing and asked, "Hua Qing, do you think people can have past lives?"
Hua Qing did not deny it at first.
Xiao Jiuyue's eyes lit up a little, and she asked, "Hua Qing, people really have past lives, right?" She thought she had traveled through time and taken over the original owner's body, but in fact, it was her own body.
Therefore, it is not impossible that there is a previous life.
"We, the Hua people, believe that the causes of past lives will have consequences in this life." Hua Qing's expression became extremely serious, and he said, "Miss, there are some things you will understand later."
"Now, the time is not right, right." Xiao Jiuyue's words were not a question. Hua Qing had been with her for quite some time, and the thing Hua Qing said most was: The time is not right.
"My dear, you and the Third Prince are truly a match made in heaven. You two together..."
Before Hua Qing could finish her words, Xiao Jiuyue raised her lips slightly and interrupted her, saying, "Perhaps, your dream will come true soon."
Xiao Jiuyue changed her clothes and went out hunting. She was also looking forward to the royal hunting ground.
Hua Qing watched Xiao Jiuyue disappear from view and said happily, "Did the eldest lady agree to be with the Third Prince? That's great!"
Hua Qing jumped up happily.
The royal hunting grounds were located outside the capital. Whenever the emperor traveled, his procession was grand and bustling from the first street to the end of the street.
"Sister Xiao, we're going rabbit hunting today, so we can roast them." The Sixth Princess specially arranged for Xiao Jiuyue to ride in a carriage with her. She was very happy and chattered non-stop, "Chunmei really knows how to roast rabbits. They're golden and crispy, and they taste delicious."
"Then I'm in for a treat today." Xiao Jiuyue said with a smile. She followed the Sixth Princess in a carriage, which was really luxurious and comfortable. Even the carriages after the renovation were not so bumpy.
"Sister Xiao, you must take me to Fengchunlou for dinner next time." The Sixth Princess had been looking forward to eating at Fengchunlou for a long time. She said, "Winter bamboo shoots taste better when they are in season, don't they?"
"If it's just dug out of the soil, it will taste even better." Xiao Jiuyue's words made the Sixth Princess even more greedy.
"What a pity! I just want to go to Hongdu." The Sixth Princess pursed her lips, her face full of anticipation. The status of a princess is noble, but sometimes it is also a kind of confinement. It is difficult for her to leave the palace, let alone go to the farther Hongdu.
"It doesn't matter. We delivered them at full speed. The Bada Escort Agency escorted them all the way to Shengjing. The winter bamboo shoots served on the table are all the freshest." Xiao Jiuyue originally wanted to set up an escort agency so that it could conveniently deliver to Lingnan.
Unexpectedly, He Changqing and Chu Ang became more and more powerful. Over the past few years, they made the Bada Escort Agency more and more powerful.
The delivery of convoys between Lingnan, Shengjing and Xiangcheng is not only fast, but the number of convoy orders I receive is also increasing.
Xiao Jiuyue could even foresee that in the near future, the Bada Escort Agency would be able to control the entire capital of South Vietnam!
With the Sixth Princess by his side, Xiao Jiuyue never stopped along the way. Yesterday, Lianxin followed Xiao Jiuyue into the palace, and today it was Luokui who was responsible for following Xiao Jiuyue. She has a pleasant personality and gets along very well with the maids around the Sixth Princess.
"We've arrived at the hunting grounds. The female guests and male guests are in different directions. We're staying in the tent on the east side. You should be nearby. Go rest in the tent first."
The Sixth Princess introduced Xiao Jiuyue to the hunting grounds in the north and south. "The prey in the south is all large, like wild boars, roe deer, deer, and the like. When we go to the north, it will be small prey like pheasants and hares. Last year, I hunted three!"
The Sixth Princess was filled with pride. She was quite skilled in archery and said, "Today, I will definitely defeat the Princess of Yongzhao and make her so proud. It's just a little bit of martial arts, what's there to be proud of?"
"Amazing!" Xiao Jiuyue praised. The Sixth Princess asked, "Sister Xiao, your archery skills must be amazing too, right?"
