Love is deep but fate is shallow, this beautiful wife has waited for a thousand years

Chapter 178 Find out the truth

Elder Jing nodded. "Yes, it is the Glazed Light Ring and the Murray Bracelet. I know that you had these two items before, but if you don't want to repeat the same mistakes in this life, you must find them. Otherwise, your fate will be irreversible."

Ruan Haoyu asked: "Do you have any clues about these two things? Where should we look for them?"

Old Jing shook his head. "I have been looking for twenty years, but I still don't have any clues. I knew that if you came, you would definitely come to the Mu family, so I waited for you here in advance."

"So, you also know about the Dragon Map?" Mu Xiaoqiao asked.

"That's right. The Dragon Map can allow people to travel through their past lives every full moon night, but in fact, its most important function is not this. You haven't triggered that function yet, so it's still a secret. If you want to go back safely, you have to get all three items first."

Ruan Haoyu and Mu Xiaoqiao looked at each other in bewilderment. They had originally thought that they could go back as long as they found the Dragon Map, but now the difficulty had increased even more.

Why does it feel like killing monsters and leveling up, with tasks coming one after another?

"Master Jing, I have one last question. How do you travel between different time and space?"

Jing Lao can be met in every time and space, and he seems to be able to go to any time and space at any time. Although he helps them every time, Mu Xiaoqiao still wants to solve this mystery.

Old Jing smiled and said, "You have your fate, and I have mine too. Our fates are intertwined. I can only tell you that if you cannot change your fate, when one of you dies, I will be buried with you. There is no other way."

Mu Xiaoqiao and Ruan Haoyu were both shocked. "Soul scattered? Buried with the dead?"

Is it that serious? But what exactly is this fate?

"Well, since I have said this, I might as well say one more thing. Your life in modern times is your last life. If your fate does not change, there will be no reincarnation. Everything will end, and you will never see each other again in your life! That's all I have to say today. Think carefully about what to do next."

After saying this, Master Jing left, leaving Ruan Haoyu and Mu Xiaoqiao in shock. After a long while, Ruan Haoyu finally held Mu Xiaoqiao's trembling hand and said firmly, "Amu, don't be afraid. We can definitely change our fate."

Mu Xiaoqiao nodded with a pale face, but he was really unsure in his heart. Now without any clues, these words were just futile self-consolation.

"Ayu, now that we have arrived at the Mu family, it is only a matter of time before we get the Dragon Map. The difficult part is the Glazed Light Ring and the Murray Bracelet. Did you find any records about your past life in Aunt Ruan's diary?"

Ruan Haoyu frowned and thought carefully, "I only know that the Glazed Light Ring and the Murray Bracelet were passed down from generation to generation in the Great Jin Dynasty's royal family. However, the Great Jin Dynasty has long since fallen, and no one knows who has the Glazed Light Ring and the Murray Bracelet. There are so many people with the surname Ruan in the world, how can I find them?"

That’s right, searching blindly is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Mu Xiaoqiao thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Do you think they are in the palace of the Great Rui Kingdom now? After all, the royal family of the Rui Kingdom is also surnamed Ruan, maybe..."

She didn't finish her words, but both of them knew that this possibility existed, but it was not great, because the Great Jin royal family had many branches, and most of them had declined. The possibility of rising again and establishing a new empire did exist, but it was very small after all.

"After we get the Dragon Map, let's go back to Rui State. We can't leave this dynasty for the time being. This is our only chance."

If they rashly return to the modern era, they will not be able to change their fate of being killed, and there will be no room for maneuver. Therefore, they must change their fate here first, and then return to the modern era to find the ultimate function of the Dragon Map and solve all these mysteries.

"Okay, in that case, let's get the Dragon Map first."

When they returned to the Plum Garden, Nishang had just returned. As soon as she entered the door, she dismissed the Hongmei and Lumei, and knelt down and said, "Your Highness, Commander, we have found out that Shaoyao, the maidservant beside Hu Sanniang, is Xiao Mubei's spy. Shaoyao secretly put the drug on Hu Sanniang's clothes that day. Because of the relationship between Your Highness and Hu Sanniang..."

"Cough cough~"

Ruan Haoyu suddenly coughed loudly, and Nichang woke up as if from a dream. She stopped and paused for a moment, not knowing how to continue reporting.

But Mu Xiaoqiao had already heard the clues. She tilted her head to look at Ruan Haoyu and said in a faint voice, "How did you fall for the drug that was applied on her clothes?"

Ruan Haoyu smiled awkwardly, "Amu, listen to me, she suddenly hugged me at that time, and I didn't have time to react."

"Oh~" Mu Xiaoqiao said in a long voice, turned around to look at Nichang, and the temperature of her voice dropped significantly, "Go on."

Nichang knew she had said the wrong thing, but she didn't know how to make up for it at this moment, so she could only bite the bullet and said, "Your subordinate, I also saw that it was that Hu Sanniang who suddenly hugged Your Highness, whispered something in Your Highness's ear, and then let go. It should be the trick that hit you."

Ruan Haoyu kept stealing glances at Mu Xiaoqiao's face, but she seemed unusually calm, and he couldn't tell what she was thinking, which made him feel uneasy.

However, because Nichang was still there, he could not explain in a hurry. He had to maintain the dignity of a prince, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay, I understand, you can go down."

Mu Xiaoqiao said, "Wait a minute!"

Ruan Haoyu was eager to explain to Mu Xiaoqiao, but when he saw her calling Nishang again, he couldn't help but get anxious, "Amu, do you have anything else to ask?"

Mu Xiaoqiao stood up with a smile, bowed to Ruan Haoyu, and said, "Your Highness, I still have something to ask Nichang. Your Highness has worked hard today, so please rest in your room."

After saying that, without waiting for Ruan Haoyu to answer, he pulled Nishang out.

Nishang gave Ruan Haoyu a helpless look. She felt very sorry for His Highness, but she couldn't deceive the commander.

Ruan Haoyu stretched out his hand but said nothing in the end. When the two of them stepped out of the room, they heard a faint sigh from inside the room, which sounded extremely sad.

Nishang followed Mu Xiaoqiao for a while and couldn't help but said, "Commander, there is really nothing between His Highness and Hu Sanniang. I saw it clearly that day. His Highness gave the divorce letter to Hu Sanniang, and it was indeed Hu Sanniang who suddenly hugged His Highness."

Mu Xiaoqiao walked out without looking back, "Yeah, I know."

"You know? Then you still say to His Highness..."

Mu Xiaoqiao stopped, turned around, and said with a smile: "Nichang, you don't understand, the more jealous I am, the happier he is."

"Really...?" Nichang was skeptical.

Mu Xiaoqiao didn't intend to explain too much, and just said: "Nichang, tell the Phantom Guards to keep an eye on Hu Sanniang. I suspect that she is colluding with Sui State. Also, tell all the Phantom Guards to secretly find out a pair of jewelry, called the Glazed Light Ring and the Murray Bracelet. They should be in the hands of the person named Ruan. If you have any news, don't act rashly and report to me immediately."
