fate follows the connection
palace, winding its way up the mountainside, was eerie. There were entire walls of copper mirrors embedded in some of the corners, making it seem like figures would flash past. It was impossible to te...Mu Wanchen was right, the person has passed away. Even if those who are alive miss them dearly, they can only remain in remembrance.
The little junior wife understood yin and yang better than anyone else. Perhaps her mother was no longer in the underworld.
If I were to die, I should go to the underworld, but Mu Wanchen...
Where will he go
Did the Master let him go through the underworld so that his soul would have a place to return to
In recent interactions, the Witch Clan appears to exist apart from heaven and earth. They are a secluded people who were once highly revered but have since been lost to history.
From the Mirrored World of Wu Wang City, its tombs, and its esoteric practices, I get the feeling that the Wu Clan always wants to transcend reincarnation and refuse to bow to history.
But Mu Wanchen didn't take these things to heart. If it weren't for the vast populace that depended on him, he wouldn't have silently led them forward.
My mind was in turmoil, when suddenly a wave of warmth came to the back of my hand out of the blue.
Coming back to my senses, I saw Mu Wanchen leaning on the car window with one hand, the other covering my hand. He was staring at me intently.
"Wh-what's wrong"
Mu Wanchen narrowed his eyes slightly and gently pushed my hand back towards the other side. “Little princess, you’re driving. What are you daydreaming about”
Holy crap!
I'm so spaced out, I almost forgot I was driving.
Luckily this highway was just a straight road.
"...cough, this, driving all night is tiring." I awkwardly explained.
I glanced in the rearview mirror. Master Hu Qing and his young apprentice had bound Xi Linzhou with strips of cloth, then leaned against the car windows and fell asleep contentedly.
Mu Wanchen let out a low sigh, "Why don't we stop here, and let Huaiqing monk go to the town. I'll take you to Fa Men to rest first. You're too tired."
"It's alright, it's alright... Huaisqing doesn't know the way, so I'll just go." I rubbed my temples.
Huiqing the monk quietly came over and said, "Lady donor, you should rest first. This will take a long time. As a pregnant woman, you shouldn't stay up late. This old monk is very good at driving."
"I believe that," I nodded.
This monk not only knows how to drive, but he's also a speed demon.
"An old monk once told me that a woman came to him seeking peace. She said that if one stays up all night during pregnancy, or inhales bad smells for long periods of time, it can lead to miscarriage or fetal abnormalities…"
I slammed on the brakes and turned to look at Master Huqing.
Master Huisqing clasped his hands together and said, "It is absolutely true. This old monk does not speak falsehoods."
“Well, I guess I should get going then.” I said quietly.
Huiqing Monk nodded and said, "That's right. A pregnant woman should have the appearance of a pregnant woman. This old monk is responsible for delivering both the car and people to their designated locations. Rest assured."
Mu Wanchen saw I agreed, immediately got out of the car and came over to me, pulling open the car door.
I watched Master Huisqing drive away, standing by the chilly highway. The mountains in the distance and the landscape up close were all shrouded in darkness.
Mu Wanchen stood beside me, asking with some puzzlement, "What are you thinking about Why do you feel like you've been absent-minded lately"
"Never heard of being stupid for three years after one pregnancy..." I burrowed into his arms to escape the wind.
"You're not stupid, you're just too lazy to think. While you were gone these past few days, people kept asking me where the little princess had gone, worried that you'd abandoned them." Mu Wanchen smiled and opened the magical gate.
I rolled my eyes because I'm being totally supported right now.
I've been away from King Miao's City for several days, and I haven't shown my face in the Witch King's Mountain City either. Maybe people think that Little Princess can't bear this hardship and ran away
Compared to the Wuzhishan city, the Miaowangcheng side is more open.
There is a small town outside, which not only serves as the source of income for Miao Wang City's funds, but also bears the responsibility of concealing operations and secretly transporting people.
I was taken back to the Witch King's City by Mu Wanchen. After sleeping in the guest room for a night, I went downstairs the next day to show my face and stabilize people's hearts.
Then he went out to meet the monk Huqing, and after much effort, he delivered Xi Lingzhou into Lianlong's hands.
Lianlong raised an eyebrow when he saw Xi Linzhou: "My Lord Witch King, Little Princess Consort, what is this person's relationship with the two of you"
"Huh No, no worries. Why do you ask"
Lianlong examined the man, shaking his head and saying, "I don't know what else is worth saving about this person besides using him for testing medicine…"
"Well, should we just leave her on the side of the road to fend for herself" I looked at Xi Linzhou, who was pale as death.
Lian Long sighed and said, "Since the young princess has been brought back, I will naturally do my best to treat her. However, the outcome is uncertain."
"Alright, alright, even if there's no way to turn back time, I won't blame you—"
Lianrong flashed a cunning smile: "That's good, just afraid the little princess will blame me for being incompetent."
I dare not!
Even without mentioning Lian Long's status as a doctor and his high position in the clan, his elegant appearance, calm demeanor, and cunning personality are enough to win over many admirers.
"The little princess has been running around a lot lately, is there anything wrong with her body" He gestured for me to hand him my wrist.
This wooden house is simple, but because Lianlong lives here, it has been cleaned spotless by many fans who come to help out.
Lian Long was so quiet and unassuming, his younger sister Lian Chuling was a completely different story.
As soon as I heard that Mu Wanchen was here, even Chuling appeared almost simultaneously. I waved my hand to signal Mu Wanchen to leave quickly. That little official was driving me crazy.
Mu Wanchen was also quite perceptive. He used the excuse of going to see the elders to slip away, and even sent his sister out, asking me to take his pulse and examine him.
"The Xiao Wangfei's family are also from a line of physicians, so there must be people attending to her constantly. Your two senior sisters are also highly skilled in medicine, truly admirable. The Xiao Wangfei should also be aware of her own body's changes, right" he asked calmly.
"A doctor doesn't treat himself, I don't feel anything, it seems like there's no discomfort compared to before…" I answered honestly.
"Will the young princess still be going to Wuzhang City later"
"Well, let's go back and see the progress of the reconstruction. And I need to show my face, otherwise they'll think the little princess has run away and abandoned them..."
Lienlong smiled: "Being in a position of power is like this... You see, who dares to offend you now Even Chuling doesn't dare to speak out of turn... hmm"
He frowned slightly, which made my heart skip a beat. I quickly asked, "What's wrong Is there something abnormal with your pulse"
Lianlong raised one corner of his lips and said, "It's nothing, nothing to tell."
Can't say
"What Did you guess the gender It's not even three months yet, can you really guess" I asked tentatively.
Lien Long smiled but didn't answer.
Okay, I know doctors who are principled wouldn't bring this up.
I have no preference for the gender of a child. What matters is who the child belongs to, not their gender.
Just thinking about Mu Wanchen becoming a father, I have a strange sense of anticipation -- how will he raise a child
Across from me, Lianrong seemed to have thought of the same thing, and he smiled with a hint of wickedness: "Little Consort, have you ever thought about your child's name"n't that because she always comes over and sits with me... What does that have to do with anything" I asked, confused.“Poof… So you’re not close with her Do you guys hang out privately” the female cla...
