Ye Sui took the phone and swiped the screen with her finger. Xiao Liu was reading a post related to the crown prince of the Xia Zhou Dynasty. There were a lot of replies, and it was already a hot forum post.
When the prince was born, there was a strange phenomenon in the sky, which was regarded as an auspicious omen. However, the queen was still in bed and died half a month later. Other princes did not like the young crown prince, but he was deeply loved by the emperor. He was made crown prince at the age of five.
Ye Sui was distracted and unknowingly forgot the time. While staring at the cell phone, her eyes drifted away.
In the end, the makeup artist had to interrupt Ye Sui’s thoughts. She reluctantly said, “Suisui, don’t look anymore. The activity is about to begin. Let’s finish the makeup first.”
Ye Sui was taken aback. She put down the phone once she realized that she had a public announcement later.
She quickly adjusted her state and drove everything out of her mind to make sure there was no mistake in her work.
After work, the first thing Ye Sui did when she returned home was to check Xia Zhou Dynasty’s information on the Internet.
At dusk, the flowers in the garden outside the window were blooming. The setting sun was clear, and the wind was quiet. When the orange ball of fire vanished behind the window, the room turned dim and was stained with a layer of mystery.
Lines of words on the computer screen fell into Ye Sui’s eyes. After establishing, the Xia Zhou Dynasty slowly prospered……
The mouse swept over the crown prince’s name. Ye Sui paused, then clicked on it.
There was no portrait of the prince, and all the records were in the form of text. The historians of Xia Zhou wrote that the crown prince had died young on the battlefield.
It was the same as the one on the forum.
However, there was another record in unofficial history.
On the night when news of the prince’s death was heard, for some reason, there was a sudden flood in the palace that night. Furthermore, a fire destroyed the East Palace and took the crown prince’s wife with it.
Overnight, all traces related to the crown prince disappeared, leaving only a few sentences in the official history and various folklores.
Strangely, there was no portrait of the crown prince and his wife.
The old East Palace they saw now was rebuilt later. There was no one living in the old East Palace. Some said it was to commemorate the crown prince, while others said because it was haunted.
One hundred years later, the dynasty was overthrown. After a period of unrest, the rumors were also gradually buried……
A glorious historical picture scroll slowly spread out in front of Ye Sui’s eyes.
Ye Sui tried to suppress her emotions, but she couldn’t stop the chaotic thoughts in her mind. There were too many questions and doubts.
The Palace of Xia Zhou Dynasty, the crown prince who died before ascending the throne, the old East Palace, even the imperial garden…… what was their connection with her?
Ye Sui was puzzled. The more she thought about it, the more painful it was. She always felt like she had forgotten something, but she couldn’t put her finger on it.
At that moment, an old voice suddenly sounded, as if from a distant memory.
He had killed too much in his previous life…… There is a death shadow in this life…… Both of you had a bad fate in your previous lives…… A life for a life……
These sentences were in bits and pieces. The words forgotten by her came to Ye Sui’s mind again.
Ye Sui remembered that day when she was traveling, she had met a fortune-teller. What the goddess said to her happened to help Chen Shu survive.
Thinking about it now, those words might also prove the existence of the previous life?
Time passed minute by minute. When night fell, Chen Shu came home, but Ye Sui still hadn’t figured it out yet.
Before sleeping, Ye Sui lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
Her thoughts had become a mess of unclear threads. It seemed easy to straighten out, but there was no breakthrough.
Chen Shu waved his hand in front of Ye Sui’s eyes and said in a gentle tone, “Why are you in a daze?”
Ye Sui muttered to herself, “Do you think people have a past life?”
