The Destiny of Love in Ancient Times
About the Mysterious Qing Family

QING MAO saw Madam Pei's slightly depressed expression finally soften her heart and nodded. Madam Pei brought the two guests to an inner room away from the maids and guards. But there are some servants of trust who always clean the place.

Madam Pei was trying to make everything seem like it should not be heard by anyone else. Qing Mao couldn't help but ask him.

It was just that the question was stuck in the throat and swallowed back. Forget it, this conversation is important.

They were in a quiet room. Sit facing each other while providing three expensive cups of tea that are deliberately prepared to entertain guests.

"I'm sorry to have to bring Miss Qing and King Yi to this place. The problem is too complicated. After all, this matter has been buried with me for many years," Madam Pei explained immediately sighing deeply.

Qing Mao naturally did not complain about the matter and sipped her tea calmly. There was nothing special about the tea but he knew that the tea that Madam Pei had brought out was still the most expensive.

"It's okay. We came because we were very curious as to why the Madam knew about the book," Qing Mao said as well not showing her childish attitude.

"The story is long."

As Madam Pei looked at Qing Mao, it felt like she was reminded of the woman who always smiled kindly at everyone. Then showed her baby daughter who was less than four months old.

The woman who always smiled was very kind and loved the people around her, not least for Madam Pei.

"My mother and I are good friends" said Madam Pei trying to suppress her past sadness.

Qing Mao was silent. She was actually not Qing Mao from this era but why did it feel like something was stirring her heart. Was this because of the natural reaction to the original Qing Mao earlier?

"Your mother is very beautiful, she is talented and liked by many people. Although your mother's family was not in this country at that time, but because of her beauty, the emperor also did not show a strict attitude, letting your mother marry into the Qing family," said the woman again while holding the teacup with a small tremble. He got rid of the previous formalities.

"When you were born, the Qing family was overjoyed. They spoil you well. Maybe you remember?" Madam Pei looked at Qing Mao who was speechless from the start. After all, Qing Mao was raised to the age of twelve before the Qing family was sentenced to death.

The girl nodded small. He knew, vaguely remembered. His family was very good but did not find any abnormalities. He only clearly remembered that his grandfather had so much pampered himself affectionately.

"Then where is the problem about the book related to me?" qing Mao asked unconvinced.

"It was discovered after your parents took you to the temple and met a monk. At that time you were still a red baby. Come to a nearby temple to ask for the blessings of the gods. The prophecy was mentioned and ..." Madam Pei was a little unsure. Whether the girl would believe it or not, she still had to say it. "And the monk said that you are the reincarnation of a very talented female cultivator in the past, named Qing Mao."

At that time, Madam Pei got the story from the Qing family because she also escorted them to the temple. So he knows a lot. Knowing that their daughter was the reincarnation of a talented woman in the past, the Qing family finally named the baby girl by the name of Qing Mao.

Hearing that story, Qing Mao was stunned. What confused him was the matter of reincarnation. Whatdoes thatmean? He is Qing Mao from modern times, a former special soldier who accidentally took a green jade ring from the National Museum of China.

The more he listened, the more his mind was in turmoil. Gu Yihao was also serious about the matter and narrowed his eyes.

"The Qing family has secrets and also your mother has secrets. When they found out that you were the reincarnation of Qing Mao, a talented woman in the age of cultivators, it was your grandfather who first felt very excited but also worried," clearly Madam Pei did not dare to look at the two people sitting opposite her.

"Why worry? Is that not good?" Qing Mao subconsciously wanted to dig more. The impulse in his heart grew stronger.

"No, it's not like that. I knew it back then if the Qing Mao mentioned by the monk was the last word your grandmother mentioned."

"My grandmother?" Qing Mao felt that the matter was widening.

"When your grandmother died, only that name was mentioned. They were confused and looking for a person named Qing Mao but there was none. Until the moment you were born, the monk said the name, finally it was known that your grandmother had just predicted the future," he explained again more convincing.

But Madam Pei broke out in cold sweat for no reason. This was a great secret that he had been quieting all this time, it was hard to hide it for a lifetime.

"The Qing family is very mysterious even if it mixes with the capital. But some say that the Qing family has stood since hundreds of years and now leaves old descendants. Unfortunately ..." Madam Pei shook her head. "Since the Qing family was sentenced to death by one family for being accused of treason, everything changed. Your grandfather has been instrumental to the country and asked the emperor for a death-free token to save you."

There was a moment of silence until Qing Mao finally sipped her tea again. Beside him, Gu Yihao did not say anything because he knew about Qing Mao's identity. It was just unexpected if the Qing family knew about this and kept it a secret until now.

"Then the book, did they keep it for a long time?" This time it was Gu Yihao who asked.

"Oh, yeah ..." Madam Pei nodded. "To be more precise, it was granny Qing who kept it. It's probably been there since your grandmother was young. Wherever the book came from, but it was shown to you," he said with a gentle smile.

He took out a paper roll from a sandalwood box that had been prepared from the beginning. Then hand it over to Qing Mao.

"What's this?" Qing Mao took it and unrolled. After reading the contents, he was shocked. "This ... dowry?"

Madam Pei nodded slowly. "This is a list of dowries that the entire Qing family has dedicated to you. Made before the day of beheading. They only hope that you will live well even though Qing's exit no longer accompanies you. This dowry is in the hands of the emperor and you can come to him to ask for a dowry. Don't worry, the emperor had sworn before that the dowry would be given to you upon marriage," he said at length, worried that Qing Mao would hate the emperor even more for this.

"What does this have to do with the emperor's father?" Gu Yihao tried to calm Qing Mao's slightly wronged emotions.
