The author and protagonist HE [Transmigration Book]

Xiao Muyu blinked her eyes, with a little bewilderment on her innocent face, as if she was asking "what are you talking about".

Pei Qiuyue thought she was shy.

Also, it's not easy for outsiders to ask emotional questions in person.

Pei Qiuyue took Xiao Muyu's reaction as acquiescence, but she couldn't help feeling a little worried——

I just hope that there will be no third party to intervene in the future.

This is good for both the princess and the saint.

Pei Qiuyue didn't know where she was thinking, she suddenly sighed softly, didn't ask any more questions, but led Xiao Muyu back to the small courtyard.

Even though Pei Qiuyue once thought that Xiao Muyu would take the opportunity to escape, the small courtyard remained as it was, and was cleaned regularly, but the maids in the small courtyard were changed again, and the familiar ones were gone.

Xiao Muyu didn't have the mood to reminisce about the old days, and while Pei Qiuyue was still there, she tried to inquire about the news of the old national teacher.

Currently, for Hua Feixue, the biggest threat is the old national teacher.

Since Xiao Muyu promised to protect her, of course he should pay extra attention.

Pei Qiuyue didn't know the news that the princess was hurt by the old master, but she knew very well that the princess and the old master were at odds, so she usually paid special attention to his movements.

"I heard that the national teacher sprained his waist when he went out a few days ago. Recently, he closed the door to thank guests and is recuperating at home."

Pei Qiuyue was skeptical about this reason, but she would not point it out to Xiao Muyu for no reason, it was just news on the surface.

"Recently, the temple is also busy with things, and I can't take care of you if I think about it. You don't have to worry about being embarrassing by the national teacher, Mrs. Saintess."

"What is the temple busy with?" Xiao Muyu was really surprised.

The temple is now an empty shell, except for occasional appearances in some sacrificial ceremonies, most of the time is usually free.

However, Xuefu Country has obviously not encountered any big days recently.

Pei Qiuyue glanced at the person concerned and reminded, "Find a new saint."

Xiao Muyu: "..." I almost forgot my current identity.

"The temple should have given up on the Holy Maiden." Pei Qiuyue comforted, "You don't have to worry about the Holy Maiden in the future."

It means that you can stay with the princess at ease.

Xiao Muyu's expression was a little subtle.

A slight smile appeared on Pei Qiuyue's face. Although there are a lot of trivial things that have caused headaches recently, there are still a few things that can make people feel happy.

Xiao Muyu thought of something else, so she asked again: "Does anyone know that I'm back?"

Pei Qiuyue thought for a while and replied: "I don't know. When the messenger came back, he only said that Her Highness the Princess would return soon, but did not mention the Holy Maiden."

This is also what princess means.

Pei Qiuyue paused for a moment, and then continued: "However, the Holy Maiden walked around the palace earlier, and she knows everything she should know."

Xiao Muyu was thoughtful.

At the same time, in the old emperor's bedroom.

When Hua Feixue entered, the old emperor was leaning against the bed, as if he sensed someone coming in, he subconsciously glanced at her.

But his eyes became obviously cloudy a lot.

Hua Feixue walked to the side of the bed and called out "Father Emperor" softly, and the old emperor finally came to his senses.

He stared at Hua Feixue's face for a while, but it seemed like he was looking at another person.

Hua Feixue paused slightly, and immediately understood what he was looking at.

At this time, it seems meaningless to say anything more.

Hua Feixue directly reached out and pressed the old emperor's pulse, slowly inputting spiritual power.

The Gu poison on the old emperor's body is still unresolved, but there is no sign of an attack. It seems that it is indeed not the old master's handwriting - at least not directly by him.

Hua Feixue's heart sank accordingly.

The old emperor has been eroded by Gu poison for many years, although the number of seizures is not many, his body is still affected.

In addition, he is very thoughtful, and has been depressed since the death of the first queen, and his health has not recovered.

In her previous life, Hua Feixue obtained the exercises by mistake and detoxified her father, avoiding the end of being threatened by the old master, but caught him by surprise.

But even after detoxification, the old emperor passed away before he could stay for long.

When I left, I kept muttering the name of the first queen.

Just like this moment——

The old emperor held his daughter's hand, his eyes stayed on her face, his eyes couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad, and tears gradually flashed in his eyes.

Hua Feixue was in a complicated mood.

When it comes to feelings, her father cherishes her as much and loves her as a treasure. She is not really hard-hearted and has no feelings for her father. Otherwise, she would not be scruples and forbearance after rebirth, for fear that the old master would treat her start.

But beyond that, she's subtle.

When seeing her three older brothers, Hua Feixue was not totally unmoved. She knew that her father was very kind to her, and at the same time, she also knew the unfair treatment the other three brothers had received.

The only reason she was favored was that she was the only daughter of the former empress.

What if she is not?

Such an assumption seemed meaningless, and Hua Feixue couldn't resent her father because of it, but she still cared about it.

Coupled with the cold reception that the former empress received during the time when the empress had just passed away, although Hua Feixue and the old emperor had a deep affection as father and daughter, there was always a little estrangement that could not be completely erased as they grew older.

Only one little Hua Feixue is clear——

She doesn't want her father to leave her, after all, this is the relative who loves her the most in the world.

But maybe the old emperor didn't think so.

When the old emperor died in his previous life, he walked away with a smile. The last word in his mouth was still the name of the unfinished empress, as if he couldn't wait to go underground to reunite with her.

This life may be no exception.

Hua Feixue lowered her eyelids, looking at her father's withered hands, she gradually understood why he was clamoring for a dancer.

When the old emperor was young, he fell in love with the ancestors and empresses who danced at family ceremonies.

There was something wrong with the festival, the full-time person couldn't be there, and he kept everything simple, because he was afraid of trouble, and didn't want to pick another time, but the first and second queens of the Pei family bit the bullet and went through the process.

At that time, the emperor, who was still the prince, happened to pass by nearby and went to play with Young Master Pei on a whim, so the people in Pei's mansion naturally didn't dare to stop him.

As soon as he entered the door, he didn't see Young Master Pei rushing up to meet him, but he saw Miss Pei's family at a glance, and he couldn't look away from then on.

Hua Feixue had heard her father mention it many times when she was young, and her mother would secretly explain it to her.

The first queen never learned how to dance, so she was just trying to catch the ducks on the shelves. Fortunately, it was an internal family ceremony, and she didn't care if it looked good or not, just go through the process.

But for the old emperor, that was the most beautiful scene he had ever seen in his life, and it meant a lot to him.

Thinking about looking for a dancer recently, I suddenly wanted to relive the memory of that time when I was not conscious.

Professional dancers have an impeccable figure and posture, but they don't have the slightly clumsy and cuteness of the first queen when she was young.

What's more, no one can replace the empress. Even if someone else reproduces the dance posture of the former empress, it will not be able to impress the old emperor at all.

If he wasn't the emperor, someone would have jumped out and poked his forehead and scolded him for being a fool.

Even now, there must be many ministers outside who are advising.

Hua Feixue didn't intend to accuse him of anything - at this moment, it was useless to say anything.

The old emperor will soon die.

After Hua Feixue detoxified, she put down the old emperor's hand, got up and stood aside, hesitating for a moment, neither going nor leaving.

The old emperor tremblingly raised his hand and touched her wrist.

"Yu'er, give me another dance."

Yu'er is the queen's nickname.

The night is getting darker.

Xiao Muyu was sitting at the table, resting one hand on the table, resting his chin on the other hand and dozing off.

The surrounding doors and windows were tightly closed, and the maids had already left.

Only the door connected to the side of the garden was not closed, and the bright moonlight came in, illuminating the area from the corridor to the front hall.

The garden has been carefully tended, and many flowers have already bloomed, swaying against the night wind.

Xiao Muyu squinted his eyes and aimed at the direction of the flowers, but the appearance of the flowers was not reflected in his eyes.

A gust of wind blew by, and the flower branches trembled. Xiao Muyu woke up suddenly, raised her head, and looked towards a certain direction outside the corridor with a little vigilance.

Not long after, Hua Feixue came in from the corridor carrying a jug of wine.

She intentionally restrained her breath when she came, she thought that Xiao Muyu had already fallen asleep, but she didn't expect to meet her looking over.

Xiao Muyu breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought..."

Hua Feixue sat down beside her and asked her, "Why?"

I thought it was the old national teacher who came to look for her.

Xiao Muyu swallowed these words, she could see that Hua Feixue was not in a good mood at the moment, so she stopped stimulating her.

"Nothing." Xiao Muyu turned to ask, "What happened?"

Hua Feixue stared at the night scene outside for a while, then turned her gaze back after a long time, took the teacup on the table to serve as a wine glass, poured wine into it, and talked about the old emperor's affairs along the way.

It's meaningless to hide this kind of thing from Xiao Muyu, if she really wants to know, she can guess it.

Hua Feixue herself might have had a bit of a heart to confide in, and she even said something about the former empress.

Intermittent, not very coherent, just say something when you think of it, and count what you say.

Hearing the part where the old emperor confusedly called the first empress's name to Hua Feixue, Xiao Muyu's expression was a little subtle, and when he heard the part about dancing, he couldn't help interjecting and asked, "Did you dance?"

Hua Feixue glanced at her and replied, "No."

Xiao Muyu didn't know what expression to put on, hesitatingly said: "At any rate, this is His Majesty's last wish."

"I'm not the queen mother." Hua Feixue said, "For royal father, no one can replace her. I won't do unnecessary things just to impress myself."

No matter how similar she looks, she is still a daughter and cannot be a substitute.

She also didn't think it was a good idea to satisfy her father's "wish" by herself.

This is like her character.

Even her biological father can't force her to do something she doesn't want to do.

Xiao Muyu felt subtly relieved, but didn't know what kind of response to give.

You can't praise Her Royal Highness for doing a good job.

Blaming her is of course even more out of the question.

It seemed embarrassing not to say, so Xiao Muyu joked casually: "I thought you couldn't dance."

Hua Feixue replied, "I have learned a little bit."

Xiao Muyu: "..." There is no way to chat anymore today.

"...Ah?" Xiao Muyu dryly choked out a question.

"Do you want to see it?" Hua Feixue turned to look at her.

Perhaps it was the error of the light, or Xiao Muyu's shocked expression was so funny that a little smile flashed across Hua Feixue's face.

The original casual sentence also slipped away.

Hua Feixue rubbed the cup wall, looked at Xiao Muyu and said, "If you want to see it, I'll dance for you."
