She asked her father to borrow these historical books from the historian who managed the historical materials. All the historical materials from three hundred years ago were brought over, which was enough for her to read.
Time passed slowly bit by bit, and before she knew it, she had been watching for an hour, and Yu Shuyue yawned sleepily.
"Miss, please take a rest."
Shaoyao cut her a cup of hot tea and whispered.
"It's okay." She waved her hand.
"How about I read it to you, so that you can take a rest."
Yu Shuyue thought about it and thought it was feasible.
He handed her the history book in his hand and squinted his eyes slightly to rest for a while.
"In the tenth year of Linzhao, the three-hundred-year-old Jiang State was destroyed, Qi State established its capital in Fengjing, and the founding emperor Xiao Mi changed the country's name... Hey, miss?"
After Shaoyao finished reading a history book, she picked up another one. As soon as she opened it and started reading, her young lady took the history book out of her hand with great excitement.
Yu Shuyue was about to fall asleep when she heard the soft voice of her little maid, but when she suddenly heard that familiar name, she suddenly woke up.
She excitedly took the history book from Shaoyao's hand, and when she really saw the words "Jiang Guo", "Qi Guo" and "Xiao Mi", she was sure that she was not hallucinating.
This is real!
She quickly flipped through the pages. This was an official history book. It started recording when Da Qi annexed Jiang State and changed it to Qi State. The person who bore the brunt of the most detailed records was Xiao Mi, the founding emperor of Qi State.
When Emperor Xiao was young, he worked as a hostage in the enemy country for two years. From the second year on, he continued to develop his own power in the enemy country. In the end, he brought all Da Qi's spies in the enemy country under his command and became
Da Qi's spy leader in the enemy country.
And this enemy country happens to be the Jiang Kingdom.
If the names of places and people were all coincidental at the beginning, but now they even match up to living as a hostage in an enemy country for two years.
Is this still a coincidence?
Yu Shuyue was a little afraid to continue reading.
She could now glimpse half of that dream, and the rest might be found in this history book.
It was clearly within reach, but she retreated a little.
"That's all, we already know the ending anyway. Instead of thinking about it all the time, it's better to reveal it all."
Yu Shuyue sighed, took a deep breath, then solemnly opened the history book and continued reading.
When Emperor Xiao was a young man, he was homeless and worked hard. After he ascended the throne, he devoted himself to developing the national power of Qi and wanted peace and prosperity for the country and the people.
His reign lasted only six years.
However, in six years, he managed a country that was fragmented and the people had no way to make a living, and put it in order, making the country prosperous, and the people living and working in peace and contentment.
But working day and night finally caused Emperor Xiao to overdraft his body prematurely, and he died at the age of only twenty-eight.
In the sixth year of the Qi Kingdom, Emperor Xiao died. Not only did Emperor Xiao never establish a queen, he did not even have a concubine in the harem, and there was not even a tomb. After his death, his body was handed over to Master Huairang of Huayan Temple in accordance with his last wishes.
.
"Master Huairang?"
Yu Shuyue looked at the names in the history books and fell into deep thought.
Emperor Xiao was a figure three hundred years ago. It is not surprising that Huayan Temple existed at that time. After all, Huayan Temple has a history of six hundred years.
Surprisingly, there is also a Master Huairang in Huayan Temple today.
Is this another coincidence?
Or is this Master Huairang the Master Huairang from three hundred years ago?
Can anyone really live for three hundred years?
Questions came one after another, and Yu Shuyue's little head was about to explode.
She shook her head and continued to read, but the following records were all the specific measures taken by Emperor Xiao for the development of Qi State. There were no redundant records about the two years he served as a hostage in Jiang State.
"Shaoyao, help me find the history books of Jiang State."
There is no record in the history books of Qi State, and it is even less likely for Jiang State.
Yu Shuyue looked for Jiang Guo's history books just to try her luck and see if she could get some information about Shi'an from them.
Not surprisingly, after an hour, Yu Shuyue, who had gone through all the history books of the Jiang Kingdom, found nothing.
"Miss, why don't you read Unofficial History?"
After Shaoyao's reminder, Yu Shuyue realized that she still had unread unofficial history books.
What she wanted to know were some of the private affairs of the founding emperor of Qi, and some of the humiliations he suffered as a hostage. How could the official history record these in detail?
This time she was not disappointed, she found it.
"In the sixth year of the Qi Kingdom, Emperor Xiao died and did not build a mausoleum. Instead, he was buried in the back hill of Huayan Temple together with Princess Shi'an of the previous dynasty."
Yu Shuyue had just finished reading the preface of the history book, and suddenly felt dizzy.
"Miss, are you okay?"
"nothing."
There was just a moment of discomfort, and she quickly returned to normal.
"My slave, let me read it to you. Please take a rest."
"Need not."
Having seen everything here, she was already hungry.
Yu Shuyue spent the whole day reading historical materials. Combining dreams and historical materials, she had basically pieced together the story of Xiao Mi and Shi An.
Although it is said in unofficial histories that one cannot trust all the records, it is not necessarily all fabricated.
After reading it, she felt extremely complicated, and a sense of suffocation lingered in her heart and made her breathless.
She didn't understand why she had this dream, nor why this dream was related to His Royal Highness.
She originally thought she had solved the mystery of the dream and would be relieved after knowing the whole story.
Unexpectedly, it brought a deeper confusion to herself, and this confusion was more difficult for her to solve than a simple dream.
After all, even if she didn't know about the dream through history books, as long as she found more opportunities to have contact with His Highness, she would be able to solve the mystery sooner or later.
But what should she do in this situation now?
Yu Shuyue had been confused about this matter for half a month. The way she frowned every day made Yu's father and Yu Hengyue extremely worried. They couldn't guess what the girl was thinking without asking her.
The father and son had no choice but to urge General Zhou to return to Beijing faster.
Finally, at noon half a month after the beginning of winter, General Zhou finally entered the capital with Yu Shuyue's little friend Yuanyuan.
"Such a big beast looks so scary."
"Which general caught this while hunting?"
"It doesn't look like it was caught while hunting. After all, not only does it not have any wounds on its body, but its hair is also shiny. Instead, it looks like it was carefully raised."
"But I haven't heard of anyone in the capital raising such a beast... Hey, look, look, the team transporting the beast is heading towards Chang'an West Street." This chapter has been completed!
