The regent is determined to get the daughter of a minor official.

Baiyun Taoist Temple.

In the Taoist room of Master Yunxiao.

Zhenren Yunxiao and Regent Chu Musheng sat on the cushions.

"Your Majesty, are you here today with something you don't understand?"

Chu Musheng sat upright with a serious expression.

"Master, I recently heard a strange story about the existence of souls from other worlds. I wonder if you have any knowledge of this?"

Master Yunxiao's eyes fixed, he stroked his beard, and said slowly:

"Your Highness, this is quite profound. Otherworldly souls are souls from a world completely different from our own."

Chu Musheng's eyes were full of doubts.

"Master, how did this otherworldly soul come here? And what kind of impact will it bring?"

Master Yunxiao pondered for a moment.

"Your Highness, this is a divine secret, perhaps due to the disorder of time and space, or due to the pull of a mysterious force.

As for the impact, it may change the predetermined destiny and set off unknown waves."

Chu Musheng's heart was shocked. Change the predetermined fate?

Isn't this exactly what you want?

"Master, what should I do if this otherworldly soul appears beside me?"

Master Yunxiao said solemnly.

"Your Majesty, you must treat them with respect and reverence. You must not act rashly, and you must understand their hearts and discern their good and evil."

Chu Musheng nodded slightly.

"What the Immortal said is absolutely true, but the theory of souls from another world is really hard to understand."

Master Yunxiao smiled slightly.

"Your Highness, there are many strange things in this world that are difficult to fully understand. Only by adhering to the righteous path can we cope with the ever-changing world."

Chu Musheng stood up and bowed.

"Thank you for clearing up my doubts, Master. I'll take my leave."

Zhenren Yunxiao stood up to see him off.

"My lord, walk slowly."

Chu Musheng turned and left the Taoist room, but he was still thinking about the matter of the soul from another world.

When passing by the Taoist temple, he happened to meet the incompetent Taoist priest.

When Taoist Wuneng saw Chu Musheng, he hurried over to pay his respects.

"I pay my respects to the Regent."

Chu Musheng raised his hand slightly.

"No gift."

His eyes swept over the Taoist Wuneng and thought of the conversation he had just had with Taoist Yunxiao.

Chu Musheng couldn't help but ask:

"Master Wuneng, have you ever heard of souls from another world?"

The incompetent Taoist was stunned at first, and then looked terrified.

"Your Highness, I have heard a little bit about this strange rumor, but I don't know whether it is true or not."

Chu Musheng's eyes were burning.

"Then tell me what you think."

The incompetent Taoist swallowed his saliva.

“It is said that otherworldly spirits come from an unknown realm, and their thoughts and behaviors are very different from ours.

Some say they bring unexpected blessings, others say they bring disaster."

Chu Musheng frowned.

"Is there any way to identify this otherworldly soul?"

The incompetent Taoist lowered his head and pondered for a moment.

"Your Highness, I don't know of any definitive method. Perhaps I can only look for any anomalies in his words and actions."

Chu Musheng was lost in thought, and suddenly remembered something.

This incompetent Taoist once said that he couldn't tell the fate between himself and the princess...

Chu Musheng dismissed the five guards and walked closer to the Taoist Wuneng and asked softly.

"Master Wuneng, as far as I know, you have seen my princess more than once. Have you noticed anything?"

The incompetent Taoist was startled, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he knelt down and said:

"Your Highness, the Princess is so noble and distinguished that I have never noticed anything."

Chu Musheng's eyes were fixed, and his voice was low.

"Don't try to hide anything from me. Tell the truth. If you tell even a single lie, watch out for your head!"

The incompetent Taoist was shaking like a sieve.

"Your Highness, please calm down. To be honest, I really cannot fathom the Princess' fate. It seems... it seems that she has a sense of transcendence."

Chu Musheng's heart tightened.

"Transcend the world? What do you mean? Could it be that the princess..."

The incompetent Taoist hurried to explain.

"Your Highness, I am only speculating. Perhaps the princess's temperament and behavior are different from those of ordinary people, which is why I have this misconception."

Chu Musheng's expression changed unpredictably as he pondered for a moment.

"I will trust you for now. Please do not tell anyone about our conversation today."

The incompetent Taoist kowtowed repeatedly.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will keep my mouth shut. If I leak even a single word, I will be punished by Heaven."

Chu Musheng frowned and walked away.

The incompetent Taoist looked at their receding backs, then slowly got up from the ground and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.

After leaving Baiyun Taoist Temple, Chu Musheng sat alone in the luxurious carriage, his thoughts swirling.

He once sent people to investigate the princess's background.

The princess was hit on the head when she was six years old and was stupid for ten years. But after she met me for the first time, she was no longer stupid.

How could a person change so much all of a sudden?

The carriage moved forward slowly. Chu Musheng lifted the curtain and still remembered that it was raining heavily that year.

His subordinate An Liu came to report to him.

"Miss Xu and her companions' carriage broke down and they are parked on the side of the road to avoid the rain."

Originally, he wanted to wait until the rain stopped before leaving, but he thought that the delicate person might be suffering from the cold and helplessness in the rain.

He couldn't wait to set off with his men.

He walked forward in the rain without caring about the guards around him.

They arrived at the place where Xu Ke and her friends' carriage stopped.

He pretended to be passing by and invited Mrs. Xu and Xu Keke to get in the car...

Looking back now, Chu Musheng still feels tenderness in his heart.

Well, if the princess really has something to hide, why would I bother asking?

As long as she is willing to stay by my side, it will be fine.

Chu Musheng let go of the depression in his heart.

Only then did I remember, what if the princess was a soul from another world?

Isn't that...?

Break the curse that came from his royal bloodline?

Will both myself and their Xuan'er no longer be troubled by the fate of not living past thirty?

Chu Musheng now recalled the beautiful and magnificent rainbow in the sky on the day when the princess gave birth to her son.

Chu Musheng stroked the platinum ring inlaid with sparkling diamonds on the ring finger of his left hand.

The princess said, “Your Majesty, this ring represents the eternal love between you and me.

No matter how the world changes, you and I will always be together, through life and death."

Yes, in this dynasty, couples do not express their love in this way.

This ring was specially made by a skilled craftsman hired by the princess.

It is said that many noble families in the capital city imitated him.

The princess has set a precedent.

Chu Musheng became more and more certain of his guess.

If the princess is really a soul from another world, then perhaps it is really God's blessing to them.

He thought about the princess's various novel ideas and unique actions on a daily basis.

Those things that once made him confused and even dissatisfied have now become the light of hope that may change his destiny.

"Is all this arranged by fate?"

Chu Musheng muttered to himself.

The incompetent Taoist calculated that the king would be in great trouble that day, and he happened to meet Xu Ke, who had not yet become his princess.

And that day, a catastrophe was waiting for him outside the city...

Chu Musheng recalled the various changes that the princess had brought to the palace.

Those novel account form management methods, unique ideas and concepts, and her tolerance and care for her servants.

If my beloved concubine is truly a soul from another world, I will definitely protect her well and keep her safe.

Chu Musheng swore secretly.

His eyes became softer, as if he had seen a beautiful life in the future without the shadow of the curse.

Finally, he thought of Xuan'er. Xuan'er was born with a strange vision. Is there any secret behind this?

I thought of the little emperor in the palace.

"Jing'er... not only is he physically weak, but he's also too cowardly. Can he really shoulder the weight of being the ruler of a country?"
