It seems that the origin of this current Snow Princess...is not as simple as the Emperor and Empress said.
You know, according to legend, the people who were extremely skilled in formations were humans in ancient times.
.......
When Luo Xue reappeared from the white light, the surroundings had changed.
Compared to her bedroom, this place is much simpler, with only layers of attic palaces that seem to extend inward endlessly.
"This is His Majesty's side hall. The imperial study and the meeting hall are both here," the palace guard introduced at the right time. "This is the first time His Majesty has asked you to come here. Perhaps he wants to hand over some of the affairs of the Immortal Dynasty to you?"
Luo Xue turned her head to look at the palace guards, only to find that this elder brother was no longer as cold as before, and his expression was much softer.
She also thought of how the old etiquette officer's expression seemed to have become much colder when the guards appeared.
From this small detail, it can be seen that His Majesty the Immortal Emperor and the Empress Dowager... really don't get along very well.
"Well...thank you for letting me know." Luo Xue said with a faint smile.
"Your Highness, there is no need to be polite." The palace guard smiled slightly, "Please go inside. His Majesty is waiting for you in the imperial study. I will be waiting here. Just let Your Highness know when he comes out."
After saying this, the palace guards made way and stood aside waiting.
This is a private matter between His Majesty the Immortal Emperor and the Little Princess. Even if His Majesty didn't say it, he knew very well that this was something that needed to be avoided.
Luo Xue was naturally aware of this. She nodded slightly to the palace guards and walked towards the depths of the side hall.
Just as the palace guards said, Luo Xue had never been to the side hall before, and there was no image of the side hall in her unreliable memory.
So she didn't walk fast, but carefully looked for the location of the imperial study, observing the surrounding situation, perhaps it would be useful someday.
The location of the imperial study was very obvious, and Luo Xue found it after walking for a while. She could only suppress her urge to explore everywhere and walked towards the imperial study.
At this moment, after several months, Luo Xue suddenly felt that familiar breath again, belonging to the mysterious mortal who had secretly come to her bedroom, and it was stronger than ever before.
"who!"
Luo Xue's pupils shrank slightly, and she immediately looked back, but saw nothing.
and many more...
Not at the back.
Her gaze slowly moved back to the low-key but heavy attic in front of her.
"It's in...the imperial study."
"Xue'er," at the same time, a calm but majestic voice sounded in the imperial study, "Come in."
"Yes, Father."
Luo Xue could only suppress the doubts in her heart and pushed open the door of the imperial study.
When she stepped into the imperial study, Luo Xue finally confirmed...her perception was correct. This mysterious mortal must have stayed in the imperial study for a long time not long ago.
Who on earth can stay in the imperial study for a long time?
You know, even the Immortal Emperor's personal guards find it difficult to get close to the Imperial Study. Even ministers who need to discuss matters privately will mostly do so in the meeting hall.
The imperial study was filled with rows of bookshelves, most of which contained ancient books, as well as some carefully preserved jade slips, mostly records and classics, but not many cultivation techniques.
The Immortal Emperor was sitting deep inside these bookshelves. At this moment, he was flipping through a book. When he saw Luo Xue approaching, he raised his head slightly and said softly,
"Xue'er, come, sit down."
He put down the book in his hand and pointed to the seat in front of the desk.
"Ah."
Luo Xue nodded and sat on the chair.
The chair seemed to have been specially adjusted for her, slightly higher so that she could reach the desk. This also allowed Luo Xue to see the book in the Immortal Emperor's hand.
"'Interesting Stories in the Barbarian Forest'... is it a preparation for the Southern Tour?"
Luo Xue's eyes were fixed on the classics, while the Immortal Emperor stared at his daughter intently. After a while, he continued to speak slowly,
"I've been quite busy recently and haven't been able to see you properly... Xue'er, you won't blame your father, will you?"
"I don't dare."
Luo Xue lowered her head slightly and hid her gaze.
The Immortal Emperor was silent for a while, then said softly,
"Today, you stay here with me for a while..."
For some reason, Luo Xue actually heard a hint of bitterness in his words.
However, she definitely couldn't run away today, and could only stay in the imperial study and accompany the Immortal Emperor obediently.
"Yes, Father." Luo Xue nodded, then thought for a moment and continued, "Can I take a look at the books in the imperial study?"
A trace of surprise flashed across the Immortal Emperor's eyes, and then he replied,
"Of course... But, Xue'er, can you understand?"
"You can't possibly not understand the words?"
Luo Xue felt a little puzzled, but she didn't expect that after she said this, the Immortal Emperor became even more silent.
"Just be more casual. Don't be so reserved. This is your home, and you will have a long time to spend with me."
The Immortal Emperor smiled slightly, with a hint of reluctance in his smile that even Luo Xue could see at a glance.
Although Luo Xue was confused, she could only suppress it for the time being because she couldn't figure it out.
Now it seems that the rumors are not entirely false. The Immortal Emperor's attitude towards her can indeed be considered good, but it is not yet to the extent of doting.
After getting the Immortal Emperor's approval, Luo Xue walked in the imperial study. She could sense that someone was staring at her.
But this is also normal. It should be the Immortal Emperor. Luo Xue didn’t think much about it.
The aura of the mysterious mortal has not weakened. Luo Xue even suspects that the other party is still in the imperial study. But besides her, the only person in the imperial study is the Immortal Emperor. It can't be that the Immortal Emperor is a mortal...
Besides, this aura clearly came from a young girl, so it was even less likely that it came from the Immortal Emperor.
"I have both "One Hundred Explanations of Formations" and "Complete Collection of Talismans" here... It seems that the versions are a little different, like the content after the Spiritual Transformation Stage..."
"Ah, there is actually a book called "Puppetry". I guess the only book in the imperial capital that has this ancient book is the Imperial Study... Unfortunately, it seems that the collection only contains materials above the Yuhua Realm..."
It was too high-end, and Luo Xue had no idea where to start with it, so she had to give up the idea of borrowing it.
"Xue'er..."
At this moment, the Immortal Emperor suddenly called out, his tone mixed with unspeakable complexity.
"Hmm?" Luo Xue turned around blankly, only to see that the Immortal Emperor's eyes were looking elsewhere. "Father...what's the matter?"
"No, it's nothing."
The Immortal Emperor seemed to have just recovered from his shock. He looked up at Luo Xue, and a faint smile appeared on his majestic face.
"It's just... I can't help it."
Luo Xue really didn't know how to respond, so she could only nod.
"Thank you for your concern, Father."
"..."
The Immortal Emperor remained silent. When Luo Xue turned around and continued to look for ancient books on the bookshelf, his eyes fell on an invisible chair next to the desk.
The white-haired girl closed her eyes slightly with a faint smile on her lips, as if she was sleeping.
"I really want to agree to you, and I really want to treat her as you in the future..."
"But, Xue'er...she is not you after all..."
The Immortal Emperor's southern tour this time was partly due to the reasons spread by the outside world, namely, to meet the mysterious girl "Luo Xue" who integrated the entire barbaric tribe.
Secondly, it is also to find a way to save Cher's life.
The encounter with Emperor Min's concubine happened in the south, but it was a certain distance away from the barbaric tribes.
The Immortal Emperor had never thought of this aspect before, until Concubine Min suddenly mentioned Luo Xue in a conversation with her daughter, and tried to get Xue'er to leave the Imperial Palace and join this person.
This made the Immortal Emperor turn his attention to the wild and barbaric areas in the south, which had always been plagued by wars, and to this mysterious girl who, with her mere Nascent Soul cultivation, could be worshipped as the leader by the tribes that respected absolute military force.
You know, the strongest tribal leaders are all powerful people in the Sea Crossing Realm. If they join forces, even the Immortal Emperor will find it difficult.
The Immortal Emperor even had a glimmer of impossible delusion, maybe this girl could save Xue'er's life?
"Father, I have already chosen."
Just then, Luo Xue returned to her seat with two ancient books.
The Immortal Emperor looked up and found that there were only two books about the Nangong family. He smiled and nodded, not paying any more attention to them.
Luo Xue sat on the chair, holding the ancient book and began to read it carefully.
Just as the Immortal Emperor's expression gradually softened, Luo Xue suddenly raised her head and called out,
"Xue'er..."
The Immortal Emperor was stunned for a moment and his pupils shrank slightly.
But the next moment, Luo Xue laughed.
"This name given by my father is really nice."
"Yes, is that so..."
The Immortal Emperor forced a smile on his face, but he felt relieved in his heart, thinking that she had noticed something...
But at the same time, beneath Luo Xue's calm appearance, a huge wave was set off.
"I didn't expect... that this would be the case..."
"Xue'er, there really is someone else..."
Chapter 166: During the Southern Tour, the Situation Changed
Since waking up, Luo Xue has never doubted her identity as the Snow Princess.
Because no matter who she is, they all regard her as the little princess of the Great Qin Dynasty.
Even though her memory was fragmented, even though she finally had her biological parents in this life, even though there were so many abnormalities in this life...
But it was not until she met the Immortal Emperor that Luo Xue vaguely felt the subtlety of the other party's attitude.
It is a deliberate and forced family affection.
His Majesty the Immortal Emperor is not a good actor. Luo Xue can see that the kindness in his eyes clearly does not belong to her.
But when she called out the name "Xue'er", the emotion she expressed was not false at all...
The most important thing is the mysterious mortal.
It was unnatural for a mere mortal to sneak into the princess's bedroom, but it was even impossible for him to come to the imperial study.
Unless this mortal is the daughter of His Majesty the Immortal Emperor, the little princess of the current Great Qin Immortal Dynasty.
But the little princess is Luo Xue herself...
Or in other words...there are two little princesses.
This bold guess emerged in Luo Xue's mind, but she needed to be sure.
The sudden call of "Xue'er" and the subtle expression of His Majesty the Immortal Emperor finally made Luo Xue completely certain that His Majesty the Immortal Emperor's Xue'er was someone else.
She...may not be Snow Princess, but just a substitute.
This bold guess overturned all the cognition that Luo Xue had built up in this life, but it strangely fits all the doubts.
Luo Xue was quietly flipping through the ancient books, her little face staring intently.
So, why did this real little princess hide herself? Is it related to the fact that Concubine Min was banished to the cold palace?
Luo Xue remembered very clearly that the first thing Concubine Min did when she saw her was to ask about her health with concern.
Is it because the original little princess suffered from some incurable serious illness and was not allowed to see anyone, and for some reason it could not be made public, so there was a substitute for her?
But why did it have to be me?
Luo Xue thought of her current appearance, which was somewhat different from her previous lives, with a pitiful fragility.
