Love is deep but fate is shallow, this beautiful wife has waited for a thousand years

Chapter 39: Time travel is not the reason for the Dragon Chart?

When Mu Xiaoqiao returned to the room, it was already late at night. The sky was gloomy tonight, there was not even a star, and it was pitch dark outside.

After Xuemei helped Mu Xiaoqiao lie down, she fell asleep on the small couch in the outer room. In the middle of the night, she woke up in a daze, only to find that the candle in Mu Xiaoqiao's room was still on.

Xuemei put on a layer of clothes and went in, wanting to ask the young lady if she needed any tea or midnight snack, but she found that Mu Xiaoqiao had already fallen asleep. She was holding a black token tightly in her hand, and no one knew what it was. Half of her body was not covered with a quilt.

This young lady, even though she is a general, still can't take care of herself. Xuemei smiled dotingly, covered Mu Xiaoqiao with the quilt, glanced at the token in her hand, couldn't understand anything, blew out the candle, yawned, and went back to sleep.

The next day.

The modern Mu Xiaoqiao opened her eyes full of hope, but after just a second, she closed them again in disappointment, wanting to cry but having no tears. She was actually still in ancient times!

Could it be that she traveled through time because of the Dragon Chart? What was going on? Could she go back? At this moment, she suddenly missed Ruan Haoyu's big villa and the pink house.

A month passed in the blink of an eye, and during this time, news about Nanrong continued to be sent to the General's Mansion like snowflakes.

When the news of the death of the Emperor of Nanrong spread, the whole country of Nanrong was in mourning!

The second prince Ruan Haotian holds the imperial edict of succession and chooses an auspicious day to ascend the throne!

At the coronation ceremony of the new emperor of Nanrong, the former crown prince Ruan Haoyu suddenly appeared and rebuked the second prince for forging the imperial edict and plotting to usurp the throne. He then produced the real imperial edict to prove that the late emperor had already passed the throne to him. All the officials were shocked!

The second prince Ruan Haotian and the crown prince Ruan Haoyu were confronting each other with their troops on the day of the coronation ceremony. The third prince Ruan Haojing suddenly led an army of 100,000 back to the city and joined forces with the crown prince to catch Ruan Haotian off guard. Ruan Haotian was defeated and committed suicide with his sword, and his blood splattered in the court!

Ruan Haoyu should have ascended the throne naturally, but he made a surprising decision. He decided to give up his throne to the third prince Ruan Haojing on the grounds that he was incompetent and could not shoulder the future of Nanrong!

Ruan Haojing ascended the throne and named Ruan Haoyu the King of Zhennan and promised him the position of regent, but Ruan Haoyu refused. He only became the first King of Zhennan in the history of Nanrong. He was extremely respected, but he did not ask for any real power. He was truly a free and easy prince!

Mu Xiaoqiao closed the spy's report and pinched her brows. He did it, so she knew that he could definitely do it to turn the situation around and resolve internal and external troubles. As for whether he would become the emperor of Nanrong or not, she didn't really care. She knew that no matter what, he would definitely do what he promised her!

Mu Huanan's health is getting worse day by day. He has been bedridden most of the time recently. Mu Xiaoqiao practices martial arts with his two younger brothers and sisters every day, so he has a lot of free time. But he doesn't know since when, Chen Taorui and Xuemei seem to be getting closer and closer.

That day, Mu Xiaoqiao saw Xuemei and Chen Taorui meeting at Lingxue Pavilion in the mansion again. She did not go forward to disturb them, but waited for Xuemei in the room. After a while, Xuemei came back with a rosy face. When she saw Mu Xiaoqiao, she quickly suppressed the smile on her lips and said, "Why did you come back so early today, Miss?"

Mu Xiaoqiao looked at her teasingly without saying anything. As expected, after a while, Xuemei's face turned red. She hurriedly said, "I will go make tea for the young lady."

After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry. Mu Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "I don't want tea, come back."

Xuemei turned around hesitantly. Mu Xiaoqiao stood up, took her hand and said with a smile: "What's going on between you and A Rui? Are you in love with each other?"

Xuemei's face turned even redder, and she only dared to look down at her toes, "Miss, what are you talking about?"

"Don't try to hide it from me, I saw everything." Mu Xiaoqiao was actually very happy. A Rui and Xue Mei were the people she trusted the most, and they were also the best sisters and brothers. If they could get together, she would be very happy to see it happen.

"Xuemei, if you two are in love, tell me and I will ask my father to arrange your marriage."

Xuemei blushed, bit her lip and whispered, "I don't know if it can be considered as mutual affection. He...has been looking for me recently and giving me some small things, but he hasn't said that he likes me or wants to marry me."

What Xuemei didn't say was that when Chen Taorui came to see her, they actually talked about Mu Xiaoqiao most of the time. However, Xuemei didn't think there was anything wrong with that. After all, as a little girl, she didn't understand what to say. She only knew that every time she was with Chen Taorui, her heart would beat very fast.

Mu Xiaoqiao didn't think too much about it. She just thought Chen Taorui was shy. She felt that her guess must be correct. She comforted Xuemei, "He is a grown man who has been fighting on the battlefield for many years. He will never give gifts to girls for no reason. It's probably harder to make him say those disgusting words than to chop off his head. Don't worry, I know about this matter, and I will make the decision for you."

Xuemei was happy but shy. After a long while, she nodded imperceptibly.

In the afternoon, when they went to the training ground to practice martial arts again, Mu Xiaoqiao's eyes changed when he looked at Chen Taorui, and there was always an expression of "I know your secret".

Chen Taorui felt uneasy when Mu Xiaoqiao looked at him, and finally couldn't help asking, "General, is there something dirty on my face?"

Mu Xiaoqiao slapped him on the shoulder and said, "You are really good, you kidnapped my best sister without telling anyone. I warn you, you better treat Xuemei in the future. If you dare to bully her, I will not let you go."

Chen Taorui finally understood what was going on. This was a huge misunderstanding. "General, I am not..."

"Alright, alright, stop explaining. I don't mean to blame you." Mu Xiaoqiao said with a smile, "I'm so happy that you two can be together. One of you is my best brother, and the other is my best sister. Don't worry, I will help you have a grand wedding. It will not lose to any of the children of the noble families in the capital. You're welcome."

Chen Taorui looked at Mu Xiaoqiao deeply and said slowly: "Are you really happy that Xuemei and I are together?"

"I'm happy." Mu Xiaoqiao didn't notice Chen Taorui's strangeness, and was thinking to herself, "Next month, Jincheng will be back. We have to celebrate his 18th birthday, and then we can arrange your wedding with Xuemei. This way, the general's mansion will have double happiness. Father will definitely be very happy."

Chen Taorui's heart sank bit by bit. Everything was just his wishful thinking. She had never seen him in her eyes. Even though he had obeyed her every word for so many years, even if he was willing to sacrifice his life for her, so what? He was still no match for the man she had only known for a few days!
