Quick Wear: She is the White Moonlight

Chapter 121 The Princess of a Lost Country is Everyone’s White Moonlight (6)

Taking the clothes in her hands, Yuebai felt the touch of the fabric and knew it was the Xiangyun satin, a specialty of the country of Jiang. She felt deeply moved by the kind heart of a mother.

"Don't worry, mother. One day our family will be reunited." Yuebai looked up and assured Queen Jing.

Queen Jing shook her head and said disapprovingly: "Your father and I may not succeed. It is safer for your brother not to recognize him. But the boy who follows you has a grudge against us for destroying our country. You must not take it lightly."

"I know, mother." Yuebai swallowed the last piece of plum cake, leaned her head on Queen Jing, and acted like a little girl.

Yuebai is now just over ten years old. Queen Jing gently pinched her face and said sadly, "They said that after we restore our country, you will come back and live a glorious life as a princess. If you are not here, you will have to remain in hiding forever. Do you understand?"

Seeing the serious look in his adoptive mother's eyes, Yuebai realized that restoring the country would be extremely difficult, and nodded to indicate that he understood.

After a few hurried words, Queen Jing left. Yuebai then called her senior sister over and told her to leave in two days to continue her travels.

Yuebai's senior sister was very casual. She had received orders from Mr. Zhong a long time ago and obeyed Yuebai's wishes in everything. Maybe Mr. Zhong knew Yuebai's thoughts and did not set a date for their return.

So he was away for two years, and two years later, Taoli Medical Clinics were spread all over the country.

Two years later, Yuebai returned to Taoli Academy. Mr. Zhong was waiting for her at the gate of the academy. The sycamore tree in front of the courtyard was scattering fallen leaves.

Mr. Zhong, who was wearing a plain long gown, patted Yue Bai on the shoulder when he saw her return and said, "You've grown a little bit bigger and taller."

Yuebai is in the period of growth and has indeed grown a lot taller. When she left, she was only up to Mr. Zhong's waist, but now she has grown to her chest.

Mr. Zhong obviously knew about Yuebai's achievements down the mountain, and they had been exchanging letters.

"Master, I'm back. Is it time for you to teach me your fortune-telling skills?"

"it is good."

The two of them walked into the yard together, and then saw a furry little head poking its head out.

It was five-year-old Zhou Mingxuan. When Yuebai left as a teenager, Zhou Mingxuan's memory was still not very clear. He only remembered that he had an older sister, but two years had passed and his sister's appearance had become vague.

Mr. Zhong noticed Zhou Mingxuan and waved at him: "Xuan'er, come here."

Because Mr. Zhong had been taking care of Zhou Mingxuan for the past two years, Zhong Mingxuan was quite close to Mr. Zhong and ran over.

Looking up at Yuebai, Yuebai looked at Zhou Mingxuan and thought of Queen Jing's words, so she did not step forward for a moment.

Children may be very sensitive to other people's emotions. Seeing that Yuebai didn't seem to like him, Zhou Mingxuan called out timidly.

"elder sister."

Tears welled up in his eyes, and it seemed as if they would fall if Yuebai ignored him.

"Xuan'er."

Yuebai finally softened her heart and responded. The country's destruction could not be blamed on a baby.

Zhou Mingxuan then burst into laughter, held Yuebai's hand, and began to chatter about what he had seen and heard in the academy over the years.

Yuebai occasionally said a few words, and Mr. Zhong looked at them with a smile on his face, thinking of how he and his junior sister were like this when they were young.

On the second day, Mr. Zhong announced in front of everyone that Yuebai would be the young master of Taoli Academy, because everyone had witnessed what Yuebai had done over the years and no one raised any objections.

Twelve-year-old Yuebai became the young master of Taoli Academy with his medical skills. A year later, news came that the country of Jing had been restored.

Yuebai is used to telling fortunes for people around him every morning, but because he is not very skilled, his fortunes are sometimes accurate and sometimes not.

When he woke up that morning, he gave Zhou Mingxuan another hexagram, a death hexagram.

This did not attract Yuebai's attention because she did not think it was accurate until a letter was delivered to Yuebai in the afternoon.

It was a letter from King Jing, saying that the Kingdom of Jing had been restored and if she wanted to go back, she could be a princess at any time. King Jing and the Queen respected her decision.

Yuebai thought for a moment, then picked up his pen to write back, telling them that he had no plans to go back and that he now had a leisurely and comfortable time in the academy, and urged them both to take care of their health.

Seeing that Yuebai had no intention of following him back, the official who came to deliver the letter took out the package.

"This is what the queen brought to the princess. The queen said she knew the princess probably didn't want to go back, so Tochen brought these."

Yuebai opened the package and found the clothes she had worn over the years, as well as a piece of hardened plum cake.

As a woman, Queen Jing can obviously understand Yuebai's decision better. If Yuebai goes back, her final fate will only be a marriage. But if Yuebai continues to be the young palace master in Taoli Academy, she can control her own destiny.

Parents who love their children will always plan for them in the long run. After going through the war and fighting side by side with King Jing, she felt even more how difficult it is for women.

That’s why we have this scene now.

Yuebai held the hardened plum cake in her hand and said to the official, "My queen mother understands my feelings and I also understand her concerns. Tell her that I will definitely bring my brother back one day."

The ceremonial officer bowed and left with the reply.

Yuebai withdrew his gaze and looked back at the tortoise shell, remembering the divination he had made for Zhou Mingxuan in the morning.

That divination was accurate. The restoration of the Kingdom of Jing and the Kingdom of Liang would inevitably be at loggerheads. As for Zhou Mingxuan, the prince of Liang, there were many people in both the Kingdom of Jing and the Kingdom of Liang who wanted him dead.

Thinking of this, Yuebai took the tortoise shell and went to Mr. Zhong's residence.

Mr. Zhong is fishing at the moment, with a bamboo hat on his head.

Ever since Yuebai took over as Young Palace Master, Mr. Zhong began to gradually delegate power under the pretext of training.

Hearing Yuebai's footsteps, Mr. Zhong put down his fishing rod, turned around and saw Yuebai coming towards him.

The girl in her teens has already shown her charm, and we can get a glimpse of what kind of stunning beauty she will be in the future.

"Master." Yuebai bowed politely.

Mr. Zhong then saw the tortoise shell with hexagrams in Yue Bai's hand and raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Didn't I tell you to come and ask me after you have predicted something important?"

Yuebai answered seriously: "Master is a big deal."

Mr. Zhong became interested and asked, "What's the big deal?"

"Xuan'er's life and death."

Zhong? The smile on his face disappeared: "What's the matter?"

"Death divination," Yuebai had been with Zhou Mingxuan for such a long time, and it was impossible for her to watch him die. "I originally thought it was not accurate, but today I received the news that the Kingdom of Jiang had been restored."

Mr. Zhong asked in surprise: "Are you unhappy?"

Yuebai didn't expect Mr. Zhong to ask this. Her almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened in surprise, showing a rare bit of childishness.

"There is no princess in the Kingdom of Jing anymore. I am now only the young master of Taoli Academy."
