After Xiao Fubao's life was stolen, he became the favorite of everyone in the capital

Chapter 438 Return of the property to its original owner
The Queen Mother didn't care much about this destined queen, and only asked: "Since Li stole the fate, why can't she become the queen?"

Taoist Zhang did not hide it and said, "Empress Dowager, some people's fate cannot be stolen. Even if you steal it reluctantly, you will not get everything, and the thief will suffer backlash. These people with great luck are also called people with broken fate. They can always survive in desperate situations. Even if someone steals their luck and fate, as long as they are given enough time to recuperate, their fate will gradually return to its original state."

The Queen Mother asked, "Could it be possible that my son will be crowned Queen?"

Taoist Priest Zhang said: "She is destined to be the queen, maybe a dozen years ago, maybe a dozen years later."

The Queen Mother immediately understood that this person would become the next emperor's empress.

But she thought more in her heart and couldn't help asking: "Can such a person with great fortune only become the queen?"

As the empress dowager is in the royal family, she naturally sees the long term more than ordinary people. Even as a queen, there are many unsatisfactory things. If she is really a person with great luck, shouldn't she become an emperor with great power?

Taoist Priest Zhang said, "Empress Dowager, not all people with great fortune will eventually join the royal family. Do you know Mazu?"

The Queen Mother nodded. There were many Mazu temples in the southeast. Fishermen always went to the Mazu temples to burn incense and worship before going out to sea, praying to Mazu for a safe voyage.

Taoist Zhang continued, "I dare not predict the future of a person with great luck. I only know that if you meet such a person, those who follow her will prosper, and those who go against her will perish. Whether she is a man or a woman does not have much impact on her. Such a darling of heaven, when he comes to the human world, is destined to change the world."

"Will this person threaten my son's kingdom?"

The Queen Mother is always worried about such a person being outside.

Taoist Zhang shook his head and said, "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed."

The Queen Mother frowned slightly, but she changed her mind and realized that her son was now ruling a peaceful and prosperous era. Even for such a lucky person, it would not be easy to overthrow him. Perhaps this person would be the empress of the next emperor in the future. Changes of dynasties were commonplace.

After the Queen Mother figured it out, she put away her worry and asked, "Master, can you help return the fate that Li stole to its original owner as soon as possible?"

Although she didn't know who the original person who ruined her life was, she just wanted Li to die sooner.

Taoist Priest Zhang explained: "I don't know who helped Lady Li to do this. The person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it."

The Queen Mother immediately said, "The person who did this is most likely the Imperial Master."

Taoist Master Zhang had not asked about the affairs of the capital for a long time, so he asked, "Who is the national master?"

"Aragaki Akira."

As soon as the Queen Mother said the name, she saw Taoist Zhang's face suddenly become extremely ugly.

"Master?" asked the Queen Mother.

"This evil!"

The Queen Mother always saw Taoist Zhang smiling, and she didn't expect that he would be so angry.

"Does this person have any old relationship with the Taoist priest?" asked the Queen Mother.

"His father is my senior brother, so he is my nephew. I was the one who gave him this name, which means "Ming", which means to express the plain and humble. I hoped that he would distinguish right from wrong and walk the right path, but my efforts were in vain!" said Taoist Zhang.

The Queen Mother did not expect that there was such a connection between them. She said, "More than ten years ago, this man hooked up with Li Shi. Li Shi entered the palace as the Queen and helped him become the youngest Imperial Master. His blood sacrifice of young boys and girls was discovered and he is now missing." Taoist Zhang felt that bad news came one after another: "Blood sacrifice of young boys and girls? Yes, if he hadn't done this, how could he have lived to this day."

The Queen Mother's eyes moved slightly, and she said, "Master, do you have a way to find this person? Even if it's not for the stolen Fate Blade, it's for so many children, all of whom are innocent."

Taoist Priest Zhang said, "Don't worry, Queen Mother. I will do my best to help my brother clean up the mess and give those children justice."

Taoist Priest Zhang agreed readily, and the Queen Mother felt relieved. She then asked, "Master, can my sweet baby live a life without worries in the future?"

Taoist Master Zhang understood the Queen Mother's concerns and nodded readily to reassure her.

The Queen Mother was about to have Concubine Shun come over, but Taoist Zhang had already stood up to say goodbye, saying, "The palace rules are strict, I can't stay for long, I'm leaving."

Without waiting for the Queen Mother's agreement, he turned and left.

The Queen Mother was unable to stop him and ultimately said nothing. Everyone was a smart person and Taoist Zhang's behavior showed that he was obviously unwilling to read Concubine Shun's fortune.

"Alas, it seems that the throne will eventually fall into the hands of others." The Queen Mother sighed.

Old Nanny Sun immediately comforted her, "Madam, Taoist Zhang didn't say anything either. Maybe the baby in Madam Shun's belly is your precious grandson."

The Queen Mother forced a smile and said, "It's been so many years, it's time to let it go. My granddaughter is my sweetheart."

Old Nanny Sun helped the empress dowager to get up, and when she entered the side hall, she saw Niu Niu and Li Xuan sitting at the table together.

The two little men were practicing calligraphy. Although they didn't speak, the empress dowager felt comfortable just watching them from afar.

"What a delight! It's truly a match made in heaven," the Queen Mother said with a smile.

Old Nanny Sun at the side quickly responded and said, "Master Xuan always thinks of Niuniu, and the Princess of Prince Jing is a kind person. You don't have to worry about Niuniu's future because she has found such a considerate and sensible husband. If you are worried, you can ask Taoist Zhang to help you match the horoscopes of the two children."

The Queen Mother looked at the two children who were doing their homework, but she made a decision in her heart. If Concubine Shun really gave birth to a girl, she would support Li Xuan in the fight for the throne. Although she was old, she could tell the difference between sincerity and falsehood. Although Li Xuan was young, he already had the demeanor of a gentleman. If Niu Niu married him, she would definitely not suffer in the future.

The Queen Mother felt that the time with Niu Niu by her side seemed to pass especially quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was time to leave the palace.

It gets dark early in winter, so Niu Niu got into the carriage accompanied by palace servants before the sun completely sets.

Gu Mingda had just finished a day of teaching. He dragged his slightly tired body to the palace gate. After getting on the carriage, he patted his daughter's head and said, "Dad, close your eyes for a while. Call me when we get to East Street."

Zhang Yuniang wanted to eat the candied dates from East Street, and Gu Mingda was still thinking about this.

Niu Niu nodded obediently, playing with a nine-ring chain in her hand, and was very well behaved not to disturb her father.

As it grew darker, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets. Before reaching East Street, the carriage suddenly stopped when passing through a sparsely populated alley.

"Are we there yet?" Gu Mingda asked.

But what responded to him was the "swish" sound of arrows.

"Master and Miss, run!" After Qi Dashan, the coachman, shouted this, he fell heavily to the ground.
