Chapter 1330: The Princess Returns to Ancient Times
On the operating table, Xia Wanyuan’s heartbeat gradually slowed down. The doctors began the last treatment method, and the operating theater was in chaos.
Xia Wanyuan passed through the layers of fog, as if she was suspended in the sky, quietly looking down at everything in the world.
She saw groups of people heading towards the imperial mausoleum of the Great Xia Dynasty. The cries were endless.
Through the gauze-like clouds, Xia Wanyuan saw her younger brother, Xia Wei, who had already raised the beam. He was wearing a dragon robe and had a serious expression as he stood at the front of the team.
Behind Xia Wei, Xia Huangqiao and Xia Yu followed Xia Wei as they wiped their tears.
Xia Wanyuan wanted to reach out and wipe the tears off their faces, but the fog in the middle seemed to never be removed.
From afar, Xia Wanyuan could only see Xia Wei say something to his younger siblings before everyone entered the imperial mausoleum.
In the imperial mausoleum, Xia Wei was originally offering incense to Xia Wanyuan when he suddenly looked up as if he had sensed something.
“Brother, what’s wrong?” Seeing Xia Wei’s strange expression, Xiao Qiao walked over and asked.
Xia Wei frowned and searched the top of his head, but in the end, he did not see anything. He retracted his gaze. “I’m fine.”
Xiao Qiao went to help Xia Wanyuan tidy up her appearance again. Xia Wei sat beside the coffin and subconsciously looked up again.
Over the years, he had been raised by Xia Wanyuan alone. He was too familiar with her gaze.
Ever since Xia Wanyuan passed away, no one had looked at him like this.
He had become the emperor above ten thousand people. Everyone looked up to him, and no one would look at him so gently.
However, Xia Wei felt a familiar gaze just now.
He thought that he was hallucinating. He reached out and slashed at the golden pillar beside him. The pain came from his hand and cleared his thoughts, but the feeling of being watched was still there.
“Your Majesty.” At this moment, a man in a black robe walked towards Xia Wei.
Xia Wei glanced at him and stopped the man before he entered the mausoleum. “Stop. You’re not allowed to come in.”
“Yes.” The black-robed man stood respectfully outside the mausoleum and waited for Xia Wei’s instructions.
“I think I feel my royal sister’s gaze. Has she not left me?”
The black-robed man’s head was covered by a hat, so his expression and face could not be seen. One could only see him nod. “I’ve already told Your Majesty that the Eldest Princess has accumulated countless good karma in her life. Of course, there will be a new turn of events.”
Xia Wei nodded. “You can leave first. I’ll think about it.”
The black-robed man bowed respectfully to Xia Wei and retreated.
Xia Wanyuan looked at everything in front of her from afar. She could not hear what Xia Yu and the black-robed man were saying, but she could see the style of the jade pendant revealed at the black-robed man’s waist.
There was a strange totem carved on the jade pendant. Xia Wanyuan had seen it in the mausoleum on Long Qi Mountain.
The doubts in Xia Wanyuan’s heart deepened. She wanted to step forward, but she could not lean over.
The worship ceremony had already begun in the mausoleum. Xia Wei personally closed the coffin lid for Xia Wanyuan.
According to the usual practice, Xia Wanyuan’s coffin would be buried in the royal tomb and worshiped with the ancestors.
However, to Xia Wanyuan’s surprise, she clearly saw that after the worship ceremony, her coffin was not sent to the tomb’s seal. Instead, it was sent out of the tomb again and transported to other places.
