She has almost no connection with her daughter.
Is it because I'm destined to lack a daughter?
She knelt down before Yuan Ji.
Yuanji quickly pulled her up: "Oh dear, don't kneel before me, or I'll die."
"Please, Living Buddha, show us a way out. She's so young, how can she survive if we send her away?"
"You can only raise her for a maximum of six months. During these six months, help her accumulate more merit. Donate all the money and items she receives as gifts. The more merit she accumulates, the more stable and prosperous her destiny will be."
"If we donate in her name every year from now on, will she be able to stay by our side?"
“No, no, no, only six months. After six months, she must be sent away.” Yuan Ji shook his head vigorously. “Royal life is luxurious, and she can’t afford it.”
Where should I send it?
Living Buddha Yuanji tilted his head, counted on his fingers, and said, "Six months from now, someone will come to pick her up and tell her to come with him."
"Living Buddha, isn't this taking my life?" Xie Zhaozhao cried. "I can't even bear to part with a boy, how can I possibly bear to part with a girl?"
The carefree Living Buddha Yuanji said, "Just pretend you never gave birth to her."
Xie Zhaozhao choked. Was this even human language?
"Don't worry, she's your sweetheart!" Yuanji Living Buddha quickly explained, seeing that he had frightened Xie Zhaozhao, and said earnestly, "She has come to your aid because of something that's been on your mind."
Xie Zhaozhao was stunned.
What's on her mind?
She was reborn, and her only wish was to resolutely refuse to marry Gu Chengyan and protect the Xie family. Now, she and Zhou Shaoyu are deeply in love, have a son and a daughter, and the Xie family has reached a new level.
I really have nothing on my mind anymore.
To be honest, I can't say I have nothing on my mind...
Unfortunately, the Living Buddha Yuanji said nothing and walked away, his shoes clicking, and Zhou Shaoyu couldn't catch up.
Looking at Princess Jiutian, Xie Zhaozhao thought of Yuanji Living Buddha's words, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Seeing Xie Zhaozhao crying, Zhou Shaoyu immediately wiped away her tears and sighed, saying, "Don't cry. I listened to Yuanji. Our princess has an extraordinary background; she might be a reincarnation of a deity or Buddha. Didn't the Living Buddha say that she came to resolve your worries?"
Xie Zhaozhao said, "I don't know what troubles I have that my daughter needs to resolve. It seems my calamity has beenfallen her. I truly feel ashamed..."
She started crying again as she spoke.
Zhou Shaoyu said, "Don't cry. If you cry your eyes out, how will you see your daughter in the future? Didn't you hear? The Living Buddha said that she would break free from her tribulation after one cycle, and he only said to send her to a poor place. He didn't say that we shouldn't visit her, did he?"
Xie Zhaozhao thought about it and agreed. She felt a little relieved, thinking that if her daughter went to a poor place in the future, she could visit her often.
At present, all the gold, silver, jade, farms, shops, and other assets that Jiutian received as gifts and are registered under her name will be listed separately.
In May and June, there have been no reports of major floods or other natural disasters. So, in the name of the little princess, part of the donation was given to temples in her name, and the other part was given to rural colleges to improve the students' meals.
Sure enough, the little princess was very happy again.
Six months later, Empress Lu Feiyan of the Queen Empire visited the Jade Dragon Kingdom.
Xie Zhaozhao and she hadn't seen each other for ten years. They shook hands, overwhelmed with emotion.
Lu Feiyan is seven years younger than Xie Zhaozhao and ascended the throne a few months earlier than Xie Zhaozhao. Now she is also a decisive and powerful empress.
“Originally, I planned to come after the New Year, when the fruit was ripe, and bring you several boatloads,” Lu Feiyan said. “My master suddenly came to find me, saying that I had a connection with Princess Jiutian, so I came with my master.”
Xie Zhaozhao's mind raced. Could it be that Lu Feiyan's master was the destined person of the Nine Heavens Sect?
I was extremely panicked.
In fact, ever since Yuan Ji said that someone would come to pick up Jiutian when she was six months old, Xie Zhaozhao and Zhou Shaoyu have been anxious.
It's like how everyone is destined to die, but if you're told the exact time and you keep counting down the days, each day becomes increasingly terrifying.
When the day finally came, Xie Zhaozhao still couldn't accept it.
Zhou Shaoyu and Xie Zhaozhao finally met Lu Feiyan's master, Yu Chanzi.
He was a Taoist priest, dressed in white robes, with white hair, white eyebrows, and a white beard, yet he had a youthful face and a wise air about him.
“I have some affinity with the princess and wish to help her overcome this calamity. Once the calamity is over, I will personally escort her back.” Yu Chanzi’s every smile and frown revealed both the composure of a hermit and the wisdom of a learned scholar.
After Zhou Shaoyu and Xie Zhaozhao talked with him in detail, they discovered that Yu Chanzi was knowledgeable in everything from astronomy to geography. However, Yu Chanzi said, "What I am better at is deciphering the secrets of heaven."
Xie Zhaozhao and Zhou Shaoyu originally planned to visit Princess Jiutian frequently, but upon learning that her Taoist temple was on Fanghu Mountain, they fell silent.
Fanghu Mountain is a fairy mountain in the sea. Unless Yu Chanzi arranges for someone to descend the mountain, he will never find the entrance.
Seeing Xie Zhaozhao's distress, Yu Chanzi said, "The princess is no ordinary person. She will descend the mountain to overcome her difficulties when she turns four. If fate allows, she may be able to meet His Majesty."
Yu Chanzi carried Princess Jiutian away. Of the three imperial brothers, the third imperial brother, who knew nothing, had a pouting mouth, while the other two cried uncontrollably.
Zhou Qiheng said, "When my sister returns, I will spend my whole life making it up to her and doing everything I can to treat her well."
Zhou Qiyuan burst into tears: "Little sister, from now on I'll beg with you for food. We'll only beg for four dishes, no beef, only pork..."
Upon hearing Zhou Qiyuan's words, Zhou Qiheng could no longer cry.
A beggar wants meat? And four dishes too?
A real-life version of "Why don't they eat meat porridge!"
Sigh, it really won't work to keep my sister here.
On the 18th day of the 11th month of the ninth year of the Jade Dragon era, Princess Jiutian left Daming Prefecture, and there was no news of her for several years afterward.
