Volume 1: The Human World: Phoenix Rising in Fire Chapter 3: Crossing (3)
The light reflected on his pale and handsome face. His tightly closed eyes slowly opened , and a hint of blood-red color that was not like that of a human flashed by, and then turned into darkness in an instant.
"The purple myrtle is dimming, and the clouds of condemnation are moving eastward. It is the Emperor Star that has descended."
"What is Emperor Star?" A young man asked lazily behind him, yawning.
Lu Lian smiled slightly, and said, "Whenever the Emperor Star descends , it indicates that a new Emperor of Heaven has appeared."
"What?" the young man yelled, "But Emperor Chongxi has only been on the throne for nine thousand years! He is so young, could it be that..."
"Jia Ruo." Lu Lian spoke slowly, stopping him from continuing to say words that blasphemed the Emperor.
"Well, it doesn't matter who becomes the emperor." The young man Jia Ruo muttered softly, looking at the colorful lights of Jialan City from the astrological table. "The Emperor Star is lighting up in Jialan City. Does it mean that the new emperor will come from Jialan City?"
"Jiaruo, you have become smarter." Lu Lian praised.
"I have always been very smart! The Emperor always praises me!"
Lu Lian smiled softly, her wide sleeves fluttering in the howling wind of the night. The bright Emperor Star flashed by and disappeared into the sky .
The night sky returned to calm...
At this time, in the capital city of Galan
General's Mansion Backyard
There were bursts of crying.
"Madam, the third young lady was killed by them. You can't just sit there and do nothing!" The little girl in green knelt on the ground and cried.
"Although the Third Miss has admired His Royal Highness the Crown Prince since she was a child, the Crown Prince has already been engaged to the Eldest Miss. Even if the Third Miss is ignorant of etiquette, how could she do something like seducing the Crown Prince? This is clearly a deliberate frame-up by the Eldest Miss!"
What are you arguing about? What's going on with these weird words...
Hua Xi felt his body was light, and after a moment, it seemed to have settled down. The previous feeling of illusion slowly became real.
She felt a pair of cold hands moving across her face. Even though it was so cold, it was like a stream of warmth flowing into her soul.
She opened her eyes with difficulty, and what she saw was a gentle and kind face with tears in his eyes.
Hua Xi looked at her in a trance, countless memories flooded into her mind so quickly that she was stunned and unable to move.
Mo Huaxi, the third daughter of General Dingguo's mansion, is fourteen years old, mediocre and weak.
Because she had admired the prince since she was a child, three days ago, at a banquet at the Ningguo Mansion, she was tricked by her second sister Mo Qianyu into confessing her love to the prince.
The prince is already engaged to her eldest sister Mo Qianxue, so it is actually wrong for her to do this. Coveting her eldest sister's fiancé is not allowed in any era.
However, only she knew in her heart that the reason why the prince was engaged to Mo Qianxue was entirely because of her!
On a snowy night three years ago , it was obviously her who saved His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. But later, by mistake, it became Mo Qianxue. How could she be willing to accept this?
But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't know all this.
So, the result is predictable. Not only was she rejected coldly, but she was also caught red-handed by countless people. Then rumors spread that she shamelessly seduced the prince, and she became a laughing stock in the imperial capital.
Mo Huaxi, who was weak by nature, could not bear such a blow. She was so sad that she jumped into the lake and died...
That idiot, can't she see that this is a trap set by Mo Qianyu?
Not only did she jump, she also lost her life.
But... who could have thought that Hua Xi, who died in the 21st century, would, by chance, have his soul travel into this small body?
