RPAGF Chapter 191: Is the fate invaluable?
Chapter 191: Is the fate invaluable?
"Master, you said that Ye Xiaoxiao's fate is invaluable. What does that mean? Can she really have an impact on the fate of the Wei Dynasty?"
There was a hint of urgency and doubt in Emperor Jingxuan's voice. The ever-changing situation in the court forced him to pay special attention to any factors that might affect the country's destiny.
Master Xuankong clasped his hands together, chanted a Buddhist name, and spoke slowly.
"Your Majesty, I have studied Buddhism for many years, but the matter of fate is profound and mysterious, and it is difficult to get a glimpse of the whole picture. That child, Ye Xiaoxiao, exudes a unique aura. This aura is peaceful and tranquil, but it seems to contain an invisible and indescribable power. In my opinion, at some crucial moments, this girl may be like a bright light hidden in the darkness, suddenly lighting up and becoming the key person to change the direction of the situation."
After hearing this, Emperor Jingxuan fell into deep thought.
Although Master Xuankong's words did not give a definite direction, they made him feel somewhat at ease.
If Ye Xiaoxiao can really help Da Wei, that would naturally be a good thing.
Otherwise, if there are unknown factors that may endanger the Wei Dynasty, he, as the king of a country, will be unable to sleep or eat.
"Master, in your opinion, should I find an opportunity to have Madam Liu come to Hankong Temple? So that you can take a closer look and see if you can find out more things that are beneficial to the Great Wei."
Emperor Jingxuan asked tentatively.
Master Xuankong shook his head gently, his expression calm and peaceful, as if all the troubles in the world could not touch his mood.
"Your Majesty, please be patient. I think that Your Majesty does not need to do anything deliberately at this time. It is best to let nature take its course. Madam Liu and her daughter have a close relationship with General Xiao. Their existence is of great benefit to the Wei Dynasty. Your Majesty does not need to worry about this."
Emperor Jingxuan nodded slightly. Although he still had some doubts in his heart, he knew very well that Master Xuankong was well versed in Buddhism and what he said must have made sense.
In the tranquil atmosphere of Hankong Temple, his mood gradually calmed down.
However, as an emperor, the responsibility of his country and the world always weighs heavily on his mind. How can he easily let go of his worries about the unknown?
"Master, I have something to ask, and I hope you can help me."
At this time, the morning bell of Hankong Temple sounded melodiously, echoing among the mountains, as if telling the impermanence and cause and effect of the world.
The existence of Madam Liu and her daughter is like a sudden variable in a chess game. Although its final outcome is unknown, it seems to be developing in a direction that is beneficial to the Wei Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, please speak!"
"Master, I understand that the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed, but Xiao Mu's trip has always made me feel uneasy. There are some things that Master doesn't know yet..."
Emperor Jingxuan recounted Murong Jin's words in detail.
In this corner of Hankong Temple, the conversation between the two gradually dissipated in the morning breeze, but the people and things they talked about were like undercurrents under a calm lake, quietly surging in the court and rivers and lakes of the Wei Dynasty, and no one knows when it will cause waves.

At this time, in the Liu Mansion, Ye Xiaoxiao was playing with Tuan Tuan in the courtyard.
Tuantuan is the white fox that Xiao Mu gave her.
Liu Yunniang was looking carefully at the account book of Su Jinge that Chunxi brought to her.
"Chunxi, how is Su Jinge's business these days? Can you still take care of it?"
Chunxi smiled and nodded.
"Madam, our business at Su Jin Pavilion is successful. The clothing orders have been scheduled until next month. Especially the brocade that uses the new weaving and dyeing technology. It is very popular among the noble ladies in the capital. Many ladies have sent people to ask if they can make custom orders."
After hearing this, Liu Yunniang showed a relieved smile on her face.
"This is all thanks to your hard work, Chunxi. However, with so many orders, we cannot afford to compromise on quality. The reason why Su Jinge has such a reputation today is because of its fine workmanship and unique design. As time goes by, there will definitely be people who will follow suit and imitate us. By then, we can only rely on word of mouth."
Chunxi quickly responded,
"Don't worry, miss. I have given instructions. Every piece of clothing, from material selection to cutting and sewing, has a dedicated person to check to ensure there will be no problems."
Liu Yunniang nodded with satisfaction.
"By the way, how are the skills of the new embroiderers? Are they learning well from the masters?"
Chunxi replied,
"Don't worry, Madam. We hired the new embroiderers at a high price. Some of them can already complete some simple orders independently."
At this moment, Ye Xiaoxiao ran in holding Tuantuan.
"Mom, mom, Tuantuan is so naughty today. He keeps running around in the yard, as if he is looking for something."
Liu Yunniang touched Ye Xiaoxiao's head with a smile, then looked at Tuantuan and stroked the snow-white hair.
"Did this little guy find something interesting in the yard?"
Tuan Tuan seemed to understand what Liu Yunniang said. He rubbed her hand and made a low humming sound.
Liu Yunniang turned to Chunxi,
"Yuezhu, go prepare some fresh chicken for Tuantuan. This little guy seems to have grown a lot recently, so he needs to eat more."
Yuezhu responded and retreated.
Ye Xiaoxiao held Tuantuan and sat next to Liu Yunniang, looking at the account book and asking curiously,
"Mother, how is the business at Su Jinge? I still have some new skin care products that haven't been put on the shelves yet. How about putting a few new products on the shelves?"
Liu Yunniang shook her head gently.
"Xiaoxiao, Su Jinge's orders are already very full. If we rush in, I'm afraid it will affect the quality of the existing orders and the loss will outweigh the gain."
Ye Xiaoxiao tilted her head and thought about it.
"Mom is right. But I have been trying those skin care products for a long time, and the effects are really great."
Liu Yunniang smiled and said,
"Mother knows that Xiaoxiao is very capable, and the skin care products she develops must be good. However, we can release the news of these new products first, so that the ladies in the capital will know that these good things are about to be released. It won't be too late to officially launch them after we are done with this busy period."
Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up.
"Mother is still smart."
After a while, Yuezhu came in with a plate of chopped chicken.
"Ma'am, the chicken is ready."
As soon as Tuan Tuan saw the chicken, he immediately ran over from where Ye Xiaoxiao had just put it, but the little guy didn't move and just looked at Liu Yunniang quietly.
When Liu Yunniang looked at Tuantuan, she always felt that it seemed to understand what she said.
People say foxes are cunning, and this white fox is even rarer.
"Eat it!"
As soon as Liu Yunniang finished speaking, Tuantuan immediately started eating happily.
At this moment, the butler came in.
"Ma'am, there's a guest outside."
The housekeeper's expression was a little strange, and Liu Yunniang frowned slightly.
"Who is it, and what happened?"
