Chapter 249 Time is running out
Chapter 249 Time is running out
Shen Yuyao suddenly felt a little nervous. She hadn't heard Xia Xiaoxian's voice for many, many years.
When she heard it for the first time, her first reaction was to think that she was hallucinating.
[My father will soon ascend the throne as the emperor, and my mother will naturally become a virtuous queen. ]
Xia Yu was about to ascend the throne. Shen Yuyao had already guessed this when Xia Yu's campaign to quell the rebellion began.
It was no surprise that Xia Yu ascended to the throne and she became the queen.
However, what Shen Yuyao didn't understand was why Xia Xiaoxian said "time is running out". Was her little fairy baby about to leave her?
Ever since her little fairy came of age, Shen Yuyao had thought about finding a husband for Xia Xiaoxian.
But Xiao Xianbao always told her that she came to this world just to experience the most beautiful feelings in the world.
Xia Xiaoxian has always believed that the mother-daughter relationship with Shen Yuyao is the most beautiful feeling in the world.
As for marriage, there was no record of it on the Three Lives Stone, so she probably didn't have any such fate on this trip.
Shen Yuyao knew in her heart that Xia Xiaoxian was not an ordinary person, so she just let her go and never mentioned finding a marriage partner for her again.
Just as she was lost in thought, Shen Yuyao suddenly heard another sentence.
[Oh my, how can I comfort such a good and beautiful mother? ]
Xia Xiaoxian gently frowned her beautiful willow-shaped eyebrows.
Shen Yuyao was stunned for a moment. Her little fairy baby was so beautiful and healthy, and didn't look like she would not live long.
How will the little fairy leave me?
If we knew, would there be any way to stop it?
Even if she had to pay any price, she was willing to let Xia Xiaoxian stay for one more day.
[Alas, I can’t think about it! I dare not think about it! If the day comes when I return to heaven, I wonder how sad my beautiful mother will be? I can’t bear to see such a beautiful mother sad. ]
Xia Xiaoxian lowered her head and pondered in silence, but Shen Yuyao's face, which was initially filled with grief, gradually turned into a relaxed smile.
She figured it out. If she really had to leave, she had to let her little fairy go with peace of mind.
[In fact, no matter if you are a human, a fairy, a ghost or a demon, this life in the world is just a journey. If you are destined to be together, you can travel together on the next journey.]
When Shen Yuyao heard this, her smile widened.
Even nodded slightly.
"Mother..."
Xia Xiaoxian was about to say something to Shen Yuyao, but she saw her smiling face and gently covered her lips with her hand.
"Xiaoxian, actually... mother has a secret that she has never told you." Shen Yuyao looked into Xia Xiaoxian's eyes and said gently.
When Xia Xiaoxian heard the word "secret", her eyes lit up. Her mother knew her too well.
She loves eating melon the most!
"What secret?" Xia Xiaoxian leaned her head on Shen Yuyao's shoulder. Now she was almost a head taller than Shen Yuyao, and she had to bend her body to get the right height.
"Actually, since the day you were born, mother can hear everything you say in your heart." Shen Yuyao patted Xia Xiaoxian's hand and said with a smile.
"Ah?" Xia Xiaoxian exclaimed, "Is this possible?"
"Mother, are you sure you don't have anything to say?"
Shen Yuyao nodded.
"So...just now?"
Xia Xiaoxian still didn't give up.
"I heard it all. You said that father would ascend the throne, you said that you didn't have much time left, and you said that I would not live long!" Every word that Shen Yuyao spoke softly seemed to strike Xia Xiaoxian's heart.
【how come? 】
[Can my mother really hear my inner voice? ]
"Don't doubt it, mother can hear every word you say!"
“How embarrassing…”
"What's embarrassing?"
"Oh... nothing."
"There is someone in my mother's heart. I want to know her ending." Shen Yuyao asked with a smile.
"Mother, you want to ask Aunt Yun, right?" Xia Xiaoxian smiled, and when she saw Shen Yuyao nod, she said, "According to the record in the Three Lives Book, she has already passed away. So Xiaoxian has no way of knowing her final fate."
"However, what I know is that Aunt Yun is already in Kyoto waiting for mother."
"..."
The next day, Shen Yuyao brought all the family members of Prince Ning's Mansion and followed Ma Sanbao on the journey to Kyoto.
Along the way, Xia Xiaoxian was surprisingly active. She got into almost all of her brothers and sisters' carriages and played and joked with them.
She even went into Zhang Mingyu's carriage and played with her little nephew for a long time.
"Mingyu, this boy is extremely talented and has the potential to become an emperor in the future, but..." Xia Xiaoxian hesitated to speak.
After coming down to earth from heaven, Xia Xiaoxian was nearly punished by the Emperor of Heaven for repeatedly leaking secrets.
Fortunately, Sima Ming intervened and used up fifty years of Xia Xiaoxian's life on earth, allowing Xia Xiaoxian to escape the punishment of "five thunders striking the head".
So, what Xia Xiaoxian told Shen Yuyao, that she didn't have much time left, really meant it.
Calculating it, within these two months, it will be the day for her to return to heaven.
"Sister, why are you only saying half of your words?" Zhang Mingyu scolded her with a smile.
"Well, no matter what, Mingyu, you must invite the best master in the entire Great Xia Dynasty to teach him martial arts."
Xia Xiaoxian originally wanted to say that in more than 20 years, this nephew would definitely encounter several extremely dangerous assassination attempts.
But if she said that, Xia Xiaoxian was worried that if the secret was leaked again, she would not even have time to reach Kyoto and would have to report back to Heaven.
As for the future young emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, whether he can escape these disasters depends entirely on the superb martial arts of his little nephew himself.
"Mingyu will definitely keep your elder sister's words in mind."
Zhang Mingyu nodded and said.
She had heard a long time ago that the eldest sister of Prince Ning's Mansion was no ordinary person and that there were many mysterious legends about her since she was born.
So, naturally, she believed Xia Xiaoxian's words very much.
"One more thing. Remember to remind Lin'an to eat less and exercise more. His health... Alas!"
Xia Xiaoxian was thinking about Xia Linan, who was born on the same day as her, and grew from a skinny little monkey into a Maitreya Buddha. She felt very upset about it.
If Xia Linan had not died suddenly due to obesity, would his nephew's life have been much smoother?
Would the Xia family's reign last longer?
Xia Xiaoxian couldn't help but be tempted.
She also began to have wild thoughts.
"I advise him every day, but he just won't listen." Zhang Mingyu replied with a smile.
Ugh!
This was all predetermined.
Life!
Xia Xiaoxian shook her head. "This journey has been very boring. Mingyu, you take a good rest. I'm going to go ride a horse to get some fresh air!"
After saying that, Xia Xiaoxian did not stop, called the guards beside the carriage, and rode to the front of the team.
