Shaohua is Junqing

Prince Chen’s Mansion, Mingyaxuan – Beitang Mo Ran’s study.

"Your Majesty, is there an institution in the court that is in charge of astronomy and calendar calculation?"

"Yes, in the Bureau of Historians, the chief is the Grand Historian. Why are you asking this?"

"I have some questions I would like to ask you, could Your Majesty introduce me to someone?"

"Okay, follow me into the palace tomorrow."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The next day, Beitang Mo Ran brought Si Yu to the Bureau of Astronomy and met the Chief Astrologer, Liang Zhaojun.

"Your humble servant Liang Zhaojun pays respects to His Royal Highness Prince Chen and Princess Shaohua."

"No need to be polite. The princess has some questions for you, Lord Liang."

"I dare not, Princess, please speak."

"Lord Liang, can you please spare a moment to talk to me?" The two men walked a few steps to the other side. Beitang Mo Ran looked at them and smiled. He turned around and walked to the gate, waving his folding fan.

"Master Liang, is a person's fate or destiny related to astronomical phenomena? Can we tell from astronomical phenomena how a person's destiny will develop?"

"Everyone's destiny is different, and its development has its own rules that cannot be controlled by human power. Observing the stars at night and deducing destiny is actually peeking into the secrets of heaven. What you know is only one or two things, and you cannot get a glimpse of the whole picture."

"I know this. What is the basis for deducing fate? The birth date?"

"Yes."

"Sir Liang, this is my birth date and time. Please help me see what my future destiny will be." Siyu handed a small note to Liang Zhaojun.

"This..." Liang Zhaojun hesitated.

"Don't worry, Lord Liang. It doesn't matter whether he can see it or not. It won't be any bad for you. But this matter must be kept secret. No third person can know about it except you and me. When you have the result, please send someone to Prince Chen's Mansion to inform me, and we will meet at another place." Siyu handed him another brocade bag. He knew what was inside without even looking at it.

"Okay, I will try my best. Please wait patiently, my lady."

"Thank you, Lord Liang. Please go on with your work. I will take my leave now."

"Farewell, Princess."

Although Beitang Mo Ran was very curious about what Si Yu wanted to ask Tai Shi Ling, she was deliberately avoiding him. She didn't want him to know yet, so he didn't ask.

"Your Majesty, we can go now."

"Okay." Beitang Mo Ran responded softly and took her out of the palace.

You can't observe the stars at night whenever you want. You need a clear and cloudless night and a new moon to see the stars in the sky more clearly. In ancient times, there were no astronomical telescopes, so people had to rely on their naked eyes, which greatly reduced the accuracy.

Five days later, Liang Zhaojun and Siyu made an appointment to meet at the Lu Ming Teahouse.

"Master Liang, can you see anything?"

"My lord, the celestial phenomena are ever-changing and it is really hard to predict them. I can only see that your fate is a blessing in disguise. There is a calamity, and after it passes, you will be rich and noble."

"Disaster? What disaster? When will it happen?"

"The catastrophe is usually life-threatening. As for when it will occur, please forgive my ignorance, I really can't tell. It may have passed, or it may be a long time later."

"You just said that after the disaster, there will be great wealth and honor?"

"This is what I saw."

"Okay, thank you Sir Liang, please accept this." Siyu handed him a brocade bag, "I hope you can keep this a secret."

"Please rest assured, my lady, I will never speak nonsense."

"That's great, Sir Liang, let's say goodbye now."

"Princess, walk slowly."

"Farewell."

Siyu asked the historian to observe the stars and deduce her fate, just to give it a try and not really expecting to find out anything. However, today's result made her very satisfied.

Life and death catastrophe, she almost died in a car accident before, but she miraculously traveled to ancient times, survived, and was named a princess, living in the handsome and wealthy Prince Chen's mansion. Is this the so-called blessing in disguise, and great wealth after the catastrophe? Siyu thought to herself.

No matter what, I am living a good life now. Although I don’t know if I can go back in the future, enjoying the present is the most important thing. Thinking of this, Siyu’s mood suddenly brightened and a smile spread across her face.
