After the two woke up again, Lingxianmo took the porridge from Lizhi's hand and fed Xia Mulan spoonful by spoonful. After Xia Mulan ate, her complexion finally looked a little better, not as pale as white paper as before.
Ling Xianmo leaned on the bedpost, hugged Xia Mulan in his arms, and used mysterious techniques all over his body to increase the temperature around him, so that Xia Mulan would not contract the cold again due to the temperature difference.
She has started to practice profound arts now. Although the emperor didn't arrange for a profound master to teach her because he didn't like her, she is very talented. She has already entered the ranks of ordinary people and needs to practice for many years before she can learn it. It will reach the level of a yellow-rank Xuanzun.
In front of the two of them, there was a book. After Lingxianmo read a page, he would teach Xia Mulan about the knowledge in the book.
Xia Mulan listened obediently, her whole body nestled in Lingxianmo's arms. Although Lingxianmo was only five years old now, which was still a young age, compared with Xia Mulan who was only two years old just now, she was a little adult. The height difference between people is almost double the difference.
Therefore, even if they hug each other, they look extraordinarily harmonious.
After the two had breakfast in the morning, they would spread out a book. At this time, Lingxianmo would teach Xia Mulan how to read and write sentences; and at noon, after lunch, the two of them would take a short lunch break. Until the afternoon, Xia Mulan would eat sweet pastries while listening to Lingxianmo's story about the history of Xumi Continent.
And Xia Mulan also listened very carefully during this time, because although she created this world based on the novel, each world will fill in the bugs according to the original rules she made, and perfect the world generated by the novel .
Ever since she recovered part of her memory, her doubts have grown deeper and deeper. She doesn't know where the system that has been with her for countless years has gone? I don't know who the cultivator who broke through from the high-level plane is? Why did the system erase her memory and let her enter the mission world to defeat the villain boss? These are all unknowns.
She ran away for a while until she was pulled back by Lingxianmo's voice. She looked up at Lingxianmo who was serious and frowning. Thinking that she was the villain boss of this novel, Xia Mulan was confused. What is so special about Lingxianmo that deserves her love but deserves her? Why do you want to attack her
She looked at Lingxianmo puzzled, and when Lingxianmo looked over suspiciously, she hurriedly said: "Auntie, you spoke too fast just now, Mulan didn't understand, um... can you repeat it again?" ?”
Ling Xianmo looked at her, in her big black and white eyes, there were three big characters written brightly - I don't believe it, but she guessed that Xia Mulan was just a little two-year-old child with a lot of whimsical thoughts in her head. Heaping, probably she was thinking wildly again, so Ling Xianmo patiently told it again, and only continued to explain the next story after getting Xia Mulan's nod of approval.
On the other side, Prime Minister Xia looked at the girl in the room, whose skin was as white as snow, and her eyes fell on the "Jade Girl Manual" in surprise. After several tests by her, all the things described above are actually true. The skin of all the death row prisoners who underwent the experiment became as smooth as a newborn.
She stood up, ordered the servants to continue to do the test experiment, and walked out the door while lifting her feet.
The steward who was following him bent down and saluted, waiting for the next dispatch.
Prime Minister Xia handed the "Jade Mantra" that he copied directly to the steward, and said: "According to the requirements of the above, collect all the flowers, trees, and herbs, and send them to my room. I will test them myself. once."
The steward was stunned, she didn't expect that the noble son-in-law of the prime minister, who is under one person and above ten thousand people, planned to try this book of unknown origin by herself, but she was just a servant, and her code of conduct was to obey what she said, so she Nodding his head, he stepped back and left.
Prime Minister Xia looked at the vast blue sky of Sumeru alone, and thought of the emperor's words before, feeling astringent in his heart.
Those who are ministers should not think of themselves, and those who are sons of men should not think of themselves. Status is limited, worth mentioning, worth mentioning.
In the ordinary and warm days, after three months passed, Prime Minister Xia finally confirmed the efficacy of "The Jade Girl Manual", and ordered the steward to purchase a complete set of flowers, trees and herbs, and divided them into three parts for Princess Xianya, Lingxianmo and Xia Mulan used it.
After hearing the news, Xia Mulan finally breathed a sigh of relief. She has been worrying about this matter for the past few days. After considering Prime Minister Xia's temperament, she must seek stability while confirming it herself. Using it on herself, she chose to wait patiently for news.
But now, since Prime Minister Xia has brought the "Jade Mantra" to the surface, it proves that Prime Minister Xia has confirmed the efficacy of this scripture, and her current body can also be recuperated by the "Jade Mantra" , recovered step by step.
Therefore, in the following daily routines, Xia Mulan needs to do one more thing to do every day, one more thing is to recuperate her body. She and Lingxianmo will soak in the bathtub respectively, and then hold the "Jade Girl True" excerpted by Prime Minister Xia. Sutra, practice the posture inside.
During this period, when Ling Xianmo opened the book for the first time, Prime Minister Xia brought her, her cheeks suddenly turned red, from the top of her head to her toes, she turned her face away, and it took a while before she calmed down , continue browsing.
And Xia Mulan watched Lingxianmo practice first with interest, while she watched from the sidelines. After Lingxianmo's posture completely matched that in the book, Lingxianmo would teach the soft-handed Xia Mulan hand in hand.
At night, Xia Mulan was immersed in the warm water where thirty-six kinds of petals were ground into powder. She closed her eyes and let the lychee wipe her back. After searching for a long time, I found the memory about that year.
Everyone kept silent about what happened a few years ago, and almost no one dared to mention it, because the queen died because of this incident, so everyone kept silent, as if it had never happened.
It took Xia Mulan a lot of effort to learn that there was a legend that suddenly resounded throughout the Xumi Continent back then, that is, in the palace of the Great Qin Empire, there was a round that could be reversed. Life and death, the life-and-death mirror that fulfills wishes, whoever gets this mirror can become the most powerful heavenly Xuanzun on the Sumi Continent, unify the forces of the Three Kingdoms, and become the true master of the Sumi Continent.
When Xia Mulan heard the news for the first time, she scoffed at it, but the real history in the past told her that the news was true.
Five years ago was a very important and critical point in time.
It was five years ago that Prime Minister Xia was the number one scholar in high school, and not long after that, the emperor betrothed his beloved daughter, Princess Xianya, to her.
Five years ago, the empress died unexpectedly while giving birth to Lingxian Mo, and the emperor was furious. Since then, his personality has changed drastically, from a gentle and tolerant emperor to the radiant and unfathomable emperor today.
Five years ago, the time-traveling heroine officially came to this world.
Five years ago, Prime Minister Xia's "Three Character Classic" was released, which set off a cultural trend among the people. Literary works such as "The Book of Songs", "University", "The Doctrine of the Mean", etc., as well as the well-known and wonderful folk stories "Wu Song Fighting the Tiger", " "Hou Yi Shoots the Sun", "Monkey King Fights the Bone Demon Three Times", etc., spread rapidly in the Great Qin Empire like mushrooms after a spring rain.
When Xia Mulan saw the prosperous scene described in the book, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she thought: This is the time for the time-traveling girl to enter this world, why do so many time-travelings come after the so-called mirror of life and death appeared? female? What is this mirror of life and death
A bad premonition arose in Xia Mulan's heart. She took a deep breath, and continued to look at the news from the spies. It said that the emperor, who had experienced the pain of losing his wife at that time, could not afford anything about the Great Qin Empire. deal with it mentally.
After learning about the flourishing development of Daqin's cultural industry, the emperor walked out of the Queen's bedroom for the first time with the help of Prime Minister Xia, and said to the world: "All ladies and gentlemen with special talents can enter the palace. I will choose a saint from among them, elect her as the patron saint of Daqin, and receive the gift of the national treasure Mirror of Life and Death."
A piece of news caused thousands of waves.
The Great Qin Empire became lively in an instant, and countless people entered the palace gates. After participating in the palace banquet, everyone got a considerable report, but in the end, because the emperor was not satisfied with these people, the national treasure Mirror of Life and Death, I didn't take this opportunity to send it out, and it was still kept in the palace, above the emperor's bed.
After reading all the news, Xia Mulan felt a shudder in her heart. It seems that the emperor is also very strange. There are many reasons for his personality change, and time travel is naturally one of them. During the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, she felt danger from the emperor, maybe Also for this reason.
Xia Mulan burned all the letters and materials, and then held her chin in thought.
Looking at it this way, Prime Minister Xia, such a smart woman, chose to expose her identity because she and the emperor set up a scheme to lure snakes out of their holes, relying on the deadly attraction of time-traveling women through the life-and-death mirror, to win over all these time-traveling women into the palace. , and then catch them all.
Because there were too many people entering the palace, even if there were a few fewer, no one would notice. Therefore, it was indeed a good idea to solve so many potential threats through this method without anyone noticing.
However, at the same time, their deeds also made time-traveling women like the heroine hide deeper.
However, Xia Mulan raised her eyebrows, lying on the bed with her toes up, thinking in her heart that since the goal of the time-traveling woman is the miraculous life-and-death mirror passed on by everyone, she only needs to design a trick like the emperor and Prime Minister Xia, so that the time-traveling woman Women can throw themselves into the trap.
Right now, what bothers Xia Mulan the most is the part of the plot that doesn't fit the current society.
Even if it is the space-time rules that I originally set, it will automatically fill in the bugs, and it will not directly fill in an unheard of mirror of life and death like this time. What is this thing that attracts so many time-traveling women to spy on
The most important thing is that in the plot of the novel, this matter is not mentioned at all. Could it be that there is a mistake in the system? Or, in her virtual time and space, there appeared a powerful opponent who could defy the sky and change her fate
The virtual time and space is a spiritual time and space created by her with her huge spiritual power, just to make herself have fun when she is bored, and at the same time, a place where she can live and work.
But in her memory, her virtual time and space would be broken into and destroyed by a high-level cultivator. Xia Mulan thought of this, and suddenly realized in her heart, if she thinks this way, then the explanation makes sense.
Something must have gone wrong in her virtual time and space, so that even she, the god of creation/world, was reduced to a task executor with amnesia.
So what happened in the first place
Xia Mulan couldn't figure it out, but she was not in a hurry, because as long as her points increased and the system settings were broken, she would know the truth of everything one day.
In this way, she learned and practiced calligraphy with Lingxianmo every morning, read the Four Books and Five Classics in the afternoon, and practiced the "Jade Girl Manual" in the evening. After three years, Xia Mulan's body finally recovered. After the emperor sent an imperial doctor to check carefully , completely recovered, and Xia Mulan was allowed to move freely by Prime Minister Xia.
And when she could leave Prime Minister Xia's mansion, the first thing she did when she went out was to go to the palace with Lingxianmo and Princess Xianya to meet the increasingly frail queen mother.
At this time, Xia Mulan was already five years old. Although she still had baby fat and short legs, she was completely different from her previous weak posture. At this time, she had a healthy blush on her cheeks, and she would no longer suffer from typhoid fever easily. fall.
As for Ling Xianmo, she has been living in Xia Mulan's room in Prime Minister Xia's mansion. Because the emperor never issued an order to recall her, she stayed in the prime minister's mansion after visiting Xia Mulan to accompany Xia Mulan day and night.
After several years of getting along, Lingxianmo got used to Xia Mulan's chattering and full of energy; Xia Mulan got used to Lingxianmo's profound knowledge and indifferent expression.
There was an unexpected sense of harmony when the two stood together.
After bidding farewell to Prime Minister Xia, Princess Xianya took Xia Mulan and Lingxianmo to the palace of the Great Qin Empire in a carriage.
When they arrived in the palace, the three of them got out of the carriage, and under the guidance of the maids and female officials, they came to the residence of the queen mother.
The last time Xia Mulan saw the Empress Dowager was at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet three years ago. She didn't really hate or like this middle-aged woman. She was just an ordinary old lady who always had to experience life, old age, sickness and death.
At this time, when we met again, the queen mother could not get up, and she sat slumped on the bed, with her lips crooked, looking embarrassed and unfamiliar, completely different from the honorable and restrained woman in memory.
Princess Xianya shed tears on the spot, and brought Xia Mulan and Lingxianmo to the Queen Mother, weeping and saying nothing.
The Queen Mother and Xia Mulan said a few common words, such as "How is your health?", "Have you learned how to read and write?", or "Have you been sick again recently?" and other topics.
Xia Mulan answered one by one, with a bit of confusion and ignorance on her immature face, like a child who doesn't know what to do.
The queen mother looked at her, stroked her forehead suddenly, and said tremblingly: "Good boy, good boy, may the fairy protect you."
Xia Mulan burst into tears and choked up in a low voice, which made the Queen Mother feel more fond of her. After a few words of comfort in a low voice, she ordered the female officer to take Xia Mulan and Lingxianmo out, leaving a quiet space for her to talk to Princess Xianya .
Lingxianmo took Xia Mulan's hand, and the two arrived in the imperial garden. Xia Mulan looked at the ants crawling on the ground, tilted her head and asked, "Auntie, do you like the imperial palace?"
Ling Xianmo stood there, the sun shining on her cheeks, but the expression on her face couldn't be seen clearly, instead she asked, "Why are you asking so suddenly?"
Xia Mulan suddenly squatted down, then rolled into the flowers, giggling and said: "Mulan is just curious, the most described in the storybook is the imperial palace, everyone says the imperial palace is very good, there are endless Beautiful clothes, endless beauties, and endless delicacies, it's like a fairyland on earth. So I want to ask my aunt how you feel about the palace."
Ling Xianmo leaned against the mahogany pillar of the palace on one side, looked through the eaves of the palace, looked at the distant sky, and said: "The left and right are just one place, the key depends on your state of mind."
Xia Mulan curled her lips inwardly when she heard the words. At this moment, Lingxianmo is like a philosopher, always likes to say some specious things, and never answers questions directly, she is too rational.
She fell down among the flowers, looked around, and found that no one was there, so she raised her legs carelessly, with a weed in her mouth, and said: "My aunt always likes to perfunctory Mulan, Mulan Not happy anymore."
Lingxianmo smiled lightly, bent down among the well-groomed grass, and took out a handful of slightly longer flowers and green grass.
The dexterous fingers fiddled with the green grass first to create a vivid cricket, and then infused it with profound breath. The cricket's tentacles moved immediately, and the originally dull cricket kicked in Lingxianmo's hand, then jumped onto Xia Mulan's body, just landing on the tip of Xia Mulan's nose.
Xia Mulan screamed in fright, jumped up immediately, shook the flowers and grass debris on her body, then blushed with anger, walked to Lingxianmo with heavy steps, and complained: "Auntie! , you bully Mulan, I'm going to be angry."
Ling Xianmo raised her eyebrows and looked at Xia Mulan, then chuckled, fiddled with the remaining flowers and grass in her hands, and then injected the appropriate profound breath, a model of flowers and plants that looked like a flower fairy bounced onto Xia Mulan's shoulder On the ground, shaking his head and brain, stretching his wonderful figure against the wind.
Xia Mulan immediately focused on the flowers and plants, and completely forgot about the resentment just now.
Ling Xianmo leaned on the pillar, squinted at Xia Mulan's laughter, and thought in her heart: That's it, this is your life, Mulan.
