Heroine Saves A Gentleman

Zhou Xiaoxiao walked over and paid her respects.

The elder princess glanced at her in detail and became shocked. She murmured to herself, “What? I can’t see anything.”

She suddenly realized something and said, “No soul? So you’re not from this world.”

Cheng Shizhao didn’t understand, but Zhou Xiaoxiao and Yu Xingzhi were surprised.

Yu Xingzhi grabbed Zhou Xiaoxiao’s arms and hid her behind him.

The elder princess smiled and said, “No wonder you know how to make this egg yolk pastry, helping me relieve my homesickness.”

She waved her hands at Zhou Xiaoxiao and said, “Don’t be afraid. You can come up.”

Zhou Xiaoxiao was skeptical and worried. Could she have transmigrated over as well? She patted Yu Xingzhi and then walked up.

The elder princess looked at her warmly and said, “It must be tiring to come here by yourself. Thinking of when I…”

She paused and then said, “Thankfully, you met Xingzhi who is a good child. You guys will definitely live peacefully and happily together. Do you have any worries or problems that you need me to help you with?”

Zhou Xiaoxiao bowed and said, “Thank you for being concerned. As of right now, I don’t have any problems, but there is something I want to ask this elder.”

“Sure, tell me.”

“In my town…my parents and family are still there. Although they live peaceful lives, I still miss them a lot. Will I have a chance to see them in the future?”

The elder princess looked down and pondered, revealing a reminiscing look. After a while, she looked up and Zhou Xiaoxiao saw a faint rainbow in her eyes, disappearing quickly.

She closed her eyes and sighed, saying, “Your soul is yet to be in another world, so I don’t know what will happen to you in the future. Remember this, however. No matter what happens, everything happens for a reason.”

After that, she wrote this down along with a paragraph of words, folding this after she was done. She placed it in a silk brocade bag and put it in the palm of Zhou Xiaoxiao’s hands.

“If the day comes, do something for me. I wrote it in the letter and you can read it in detail when you go back.”

Zhou Xiaoxiao agreed and placed the silk brocade bag in her sleeves.

The elder princess waved her hands and said, “I’m not in the right state of mind, so I won’t keep you any longer. You guys can go now.”

The three left.

After leaving the residence, they got in the horse carriage.

Cheng Shizhao hurriedly asked, “Why are you guys talking in riddles? I didn’t understand a single word and I can’t believe Xingzhi is actually keep something from me.”

Yu Xingzhi’s eyes turned red and held onto Zhou Xiaoxiao’s words tightly, making her groan. “What exactly did the elder princess mean by that? Where…are you planning to go?”

Zhou Xiaoxiao comforted, “Xingzhi, you don’t need to worry. I’m not sure myself and when I find out, I will definitely tell you.”

She took out the silk brocade bag, unfolding the paper and reading it twice. She nodded and silently memorized the words, placing it back in the bag.

Cheng Shizhao and Yu Xingzhi both asked, “What did the elder princess ask of you?”

Zhou Xiaoxiao placed the silk brocade bag into her sleeves and said, “This is elder princess’s personal matters, so don’t blame me for not being able to tell you guys.”

She went to elder princess’s residence and got a remarkable amount of information.

Before the second day, the Emperor handed down an imperial edict rewarding the Marquis for his achievements by bestowing a residence as the Marquis residence, and thousands of silver and gold.

The Lady Marquis was bestowed pearl necklaces, a pair of Ruyi, head ornaments, and jade artifacts.

Everyone in the residence kowtowed and thanked the Emperor, adding onto the cheerful atmosphere.

The Yu Couple knew that it was because of elder princess that they were rewarded, so they were grateful for her.

But Lady Guo didn’t want his son to leave, so she was in an unhappy mood. However, she could do nothing about the imperial edict.
