After rebirth, the empress was spoiled by the emperor's uncle like a little girl

Changle Palace was uninhabited and very quiet.

But when Xuanyuan Zhuo climbed over the palace wall, he was surprised to find a grapevine swing and a jade tea table under the eaves...

It was still arranged the same way as when she left, even the position had not changed.

It was clean and tidy. I guess the palace servants often came in to clean, cut and look after it.

Walking into the house, she saw ten huge sandalwood boxes placed in the corner. When she approached, she found that there were jade plaques hanging on the locks of the boxes.

She recognized at a glance that the words on the jade plaque were carved by her mother herself.

Xuanyuan Zhuo held the jade tablets in his hands and looked at them one by one. This box contained her calligraphy and paintings from childhood, this box contained her favorite pearl hairpins and pendants, and this box contained the rare trinkets her father had collected for her...

As expected, the method to unlock the box was taught to her by her mother since she was a child.

In the last box, there was only a bronze square box.

She opened it as her mother had taught her, and found a letter in her mother's handwriting.

"Since you can see this letter, Zhuozhuo must have returned home. Zhuozhuo, do you still remember the games you played with your parents when you were a child? This time, your mother has hidden a surprise in the answer to the riddle. Zhuozhuo, come and find it?"

The Queen Mother always liked to play hide-and-seek with her. What did she hide this time? Xuanyuan Zhuo was particularly curious.

But tonight, she is here to find...

Xuanyuan Zhuo found the key to Xuanming Hall that she and A'li had secretly hidden from under the bed.

Also, the glass beads she gave to A'li were actually kept by A'li.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Zhuo clutched the cloth bag around his waist and his eyes turned red again.

The bright moonlight passed through Changle Palace, and the night watchmen's sounds rose in the palace.

Calculating that there was little time left, Xuanyuan Zhuo clutched the key and hurried to Xuanming Hall.

For thousands of years, the wise ministers of Daqi have been enshrined in Xuanming Hall, and have been worshipped by the descendants of Xuanyuan, court officials, and the people.

Uncle Heng’s portrait is also here.

Xuanyuan Zhuo recalled that when he was hanging out in the academy a few days ago, he heard a scholar say, "... Zhang Gong, who lived through the most prosperous period of Shengyang and stood firm in the court, and was the chief minister of Daqi but still managed to have a good reputation and a good end... is a role model for our generation."

Another scholar said, "But, in terms of power, Lord Jing, who served in the reigns of Emperors Shengyang, Zhaojing, and Xuanwu, deserves it."

In a trance, Xuanyuan Zhuo looked at the portrait that had been hung up recently.

In her memory, Brother Jing, who had played with her since childhood, has become forty years old and has a beard.

Not only was he calm and steady, but his eyes were something she had never seen before, cold and sharp.

Xuanyuan Zhuo remembered that when she left, she secretly tied the pair of sachets to the hilt of the Queen Mother's sword.

Since he got the sachet she returned, why didn't he marry?

She stood in front of the portrait for a long and silent moment, until the first rays of morning light quietly fell at her feet.

Xuanyuan Zhuo suddenly came back to his senses and remembered the important matter.

The Xuanyuan Sword enshrined in the Xuanming Hall, she carefully memorized the two words on the hilt - Xuanyuan, the strokes of the words as sharp as iron and silver.

Another half a month later, Xuanyuan Zhuo solved the childhood puzzle left by his mother and found Chu Yue.

Before solving the final puzzle, she had already inquired about the tomb of Princess Jinhua when she came to Chuyue.

"Ari, look what I brought you?"

"It's a delicate stone." Xuanyuan Zhuo took out a round and transparent crystal stone from the cloth bag. "Over there, these are stars. They will become very beautiful at night. Ah Li, it took you so long to fulfill your promise. Please don't be angry with your sister, okay?"

She stood on tiptoe with a crying voice and hung the exquisite stone on the treetop.

Then, he unexpectedly discovered the answer to the puzzle.

It was a garden facing the sea, very similar to the Changle Palace.

And under the old osmanthus tree in the garden, buried was the last letter left to her by her mother.

"…My son Zhuozhuo is just going out for a trip. He will return home eventually. So, mother and father prepared silver and this house."

"Remember? When you were little, you kept saying that you wanted to live in a place where you could always see the sea."

"...Zhuozhuo, no matter what, you must be happy and at ease, and everything must go smoothly and peacefully."

Xuanyuan Zhuo sat in the corner clutching the letter, crying and breaking down as he recalled the several times he had been in near-death situations over the past hundred years.

If the Queen Mother and the Father were here, how would those monsters dare to bully her!

And there is Brother Che, he will definitely help her get revenge.

But she tried very hard...

"Mother, every time I want to go home, I can never open the forbidden door."
