Chapter 413: Ancient Dimension, Cannon Fodder Female Matching Whose Marriage Was Snatched Away by Co
The faint light of morning light shines through the carved window lattice and quietly falls on Miaomiao's bed.
When Miaomiao heard the familiar voice in the courtyard, she had already suppressed her sleepiness and sat up.
After all, in Miaomiao's impression, Xiao Jingyuan, as an emperor, has extremely precious time. He always acts with a clear purpose and would never waste time in her small courtyard for no reason.
Miaomiao sighed softly, stood up, tidied her slightly messy hair, and called the maid to help her tidy up her appearance.
He didn't leave the room until he was dressed neatly.
When I looked up, I saw the familiar figure standing under a peach tree in the courtyard. The morning light outlined a golden outline for him, which seemed a little unreal.
"Mingyun, why are you here at this time?"
Miaomiao walked briskly to Xiao Jingyuan's side. The breeze blew gently, blowing down a few peach petals that landed on his shoulders.
Miaomiao raised her eyes to look at Xiao Jingyuan, but accidentally met his complicated gaze, and doubts arose in her heart.
Miaomiao couldn't even describe the complexity of the other person's eyes looking at her. There was guilt, curiosity, and entanglement...
"Miao Miao, is this your birth date?"
Xiao Jingyuan took out a piece of paper and handed it to Miaomiao who had just walked over. The paper was not big, and it seemed to have been in Xiao Jingyuan's hand for a while, and it still had some residual warmth when touched.
Miaomiao looked at the paper in her hand with some confusion. On it was written a familiar birth date and time, which was hers.
Miaomiao looked up at Xiao Jingyuan, her eyes full of confusion.
"It's mine, what does that mean?"
Xiao Jingyuan did not answer her immediately, but took a deep breath and chuckled.
His eyes changed from being conflicted to being relieved.
"If that person is you, it would be a great blessing for me."
Miaomiao was confused by what Xiao Jingyuan said. She didn't understand how her birth date and horoscope ended up in Xiao Jingyuan's hands.
But inexplicably, Miaomiao felt that this might not be a good thing for her...
"A few days ago, Qin Jian of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory observed the celestial phenomena at night and calculated the most favorable guardian star for the emperor. He even claimed that this was the birth date and time of the future emperor and empress, and even calculated the birth direction.
Originally I didn't care and just asked the commander of the guards to check it out. However, I didn't expect that the words of the Imperial Observatory would cause the entire court to boil.
Every day, censors threaten to hit their heads against the pillars to force me to establish a queen as soon as possible.
Miaomiao, you know me. Those censors did this just to preserve the royal family. What's wrong with that? That's why I've been worried for a long time.
Until today, two things have been discovered...
One thing is that last night, Prince Zhao ordered the spies in the palace to rebel against me, and even the last coma was confirmed to be caused by Prince Zhao.
Therefore, I directly chose to demote all the people in Zhaowang Mansion to commoners and exile them.
The other thing is...
The leader of the Imperial Guards found out the candidate based on the birth date and geographical location provided by the Director of the Imperial Observatory, and that candidate is you..."
Xiao Jingyuan paused for a few breaths when he said this, and looked at the girl in front of him who fell into deep confusion because of his words.
He knew that he couldn't push things too hard at this moment and had to give Miaomiao some time to digest the situation.
But beneath his calm and conflicted exterior, his heart was already surging with turbulent waves, and every inch of his skin was madly longing to get closer, closer.
But he could only suppress his thoughts and try every possible way to get the other person closer to him.
"so?"
Miaomiao pursed her lips, she felt that her brain was not enough...
“I know you’re not happy about it, but if the court officials go crazy, they’ll hit their heads against the pillars and die in a matter of minutes, just to gain a good reputation after their death.
I didn't want you to be harassed by these people, so I made an agreement with the court officials.
That is, please ask God for guidance tomorrow.
If the weather is fine tomorrow and I see nothing unusual about you, then perhaps those court officials will calm down.
If something really happens tomorrow, Miaomiao, I might need to use that wish from before...
sorry......"
Xiao Jingyuan's tone was full of guilt. Even after he finished speaking, he couldn't help but took two steps forward as if driven by an invisible force and gently embraced Miaomiao in his arms.
At this moment, time seemed to freeze. He could even feel Miaomiao's body stiffen slightly in shock. He also smelled the faint fragrance of her hair that intoxicated him, and the greed in his eyes almost broke out...
But this hug was short-lived. Before Miaomiao could recover from her shock and move to push him away, Xiao Jingyuan took a step back as if he was scalded and stood still again.
"I'm sorry. Miaomiao, I think you really are my lucky star.
So, if tomorrow's events really develop as the courtiers predicted, can I use the opportunity of making a wish?"
Xiao Jingyuan looked at Miaomiao deeply, his voice soft and gentle, as if he was afraid of scaring Miaomiao.
Miaomiao didn’t know what to say at this time. Wait, that’s not right, did she seem to hear something just now?
"Wait, Prince Zhao tried to murder you and was exiled?"
Miaomiao couldn't help but let out an irrepressible smile, but she didn't notice that a certain man's expression stiffened slightly because she mentioned another man.
"Yes, the entire family was demoted to commoners and exiled, never allowed to return to the capital. Of course, I also discovered through investigation that they initially intended to use the Shi family's assets to do something they shouldn't have.
But when they found out that you came to me to ask for permission to cancel the engagement and things were out of control, they set their sights on your ungrateful cousin.
Therefore, all the members of the royal family are included in this exile."
Xiao Jingyuan pursed his lips and said, it was obvious that he had no good impression of the family of Prince Zhao's Mansion.
But after Xiao Jingyuan said this, Miaomiao thought of the imperial edict to cancel the engagement with the man in front of her, and pulled herself out of that rubbish plot.
This is a life-saving grace...
