A five-year-old goddess, raised to become an emperor for all time through a bronze mirror.

Chapter 242 I want to give it a try...

At this moment, he solemnly approached Pei Yunjing, first bowing before asking:

"I wonder what Your Highness has summoned this old minister for?"

Pei Yunjing didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "Imperial Preceptor, the reason I have summoned you here today is that I have a favor to ask of you."

Regarding that phoenix bronze mirror, I yearn to learn more of its hidden secrets. I humbly request the Imperial Preceptor's guidance and enlightenment.

The Imperial Advisor nodded slightly, his deep and wise eyes gazing quietly at the bronze mirror on the table.

He slowly reached out his hand, his slender fingers gently caressing the frame of his glasses, as if touching a rare treasure.

Then, he shifted his gaze from the bronze mirror, turned to look at the prince standing to the side, and spoke in a low, slow voice:

"Your Highness, this mirror was personally ordered to be made by Emperor Liang Yuan in the third year of Guangling. The material used is extremely rare and precious meteorite iron."

At this point, the Imperial Advisor paused slightly, seemingly recalling more information about the bronze mirror.

After a moment, he continued, "Legend has it that this mirror possesses a mysterious and unpredictable power that can connect two different worlds."

However, as for which two worlds they are, even someone as learned as myself has no way of knowing...

Upon hearing this, His Highness frowned, a look of doubt appearing on his face.

Seeing this, the Imperial Advisor smiled slightly and continued to explain:

"However, according to ancient records, if you want to unlock the true power of this bronze mirror, you need three things as a guide—sincerity, blood, and affection."

Only when all three are present can the power of the bronze mirror be successfully activated.

"Sincerity? Blood? Affection?" His Highness murmured to himself, repeatedly pondering the three words spoken by the Imperial Preceptor.

Gradually, his gaze deepened, as if he had already formed a certain guess and answer in his heart.

Just then, the Imperial Advisor added earnestly:

“Your Highness, if there is someone in your heart who you miss dearly and cannot forget, then that person may be the key to unlocking this bronze mirror.”

After saying this, the Imperial Advisor remained silent, merely observing Pei Yunjing's reaction.

Upon hearing this, Pei Yunjing involuntarily turned his gaze back to the bronze mirror.

The surface of the phoenix bronze mirror was as smooth as ice, clearly reflecting his resolute and determined face.

At this moment, a strong belief surged within him, and he whispered:

"Niannian, if you are truly the one destined for me in this life, then no matter the cost, I will find you!"

Meanwhile, far away in a modern school, Niannian suddenly felt her heart clench, as if it were being tightly gripped by an invisible hand.

This sudden feeling of palpitation made her instinctively clutch her chest, her face filled with astonishment and confusion.

In the depths of her being, she seemed to sense a call from a distant time and space constantly assaulting her mental defenses.

She looked up at the window; the sun was still shining brightly, but a strange sense of anticipation filled her heart.

…………

As night falls, all is quiet, and the whole world seems to be shrouded in a mysterious black veil.

Inside the Prince Pei's residence, all was quiet and peaceful, with only the occasional chirping of insects breaking the silence.

In the garden of the Prince's mansion, Pei Nanxing stood alone in silence.

He tilted his head slightly, gazing at the bright moon hanging high above him.

Tonight, the moon is like a huge, bright silver plate, radiating a bright light that illuminates the entire garden as if it were daytime.

However, the bright moonlight also mercilessly revealed the strands of white hair at Pei Nanxing's temples, making him look significantly older than he had a few years ago.

Just then, a soft sound of footsteps approached from afar and slowly reached Pei Nanxing's ears.

He saw a servant walking towards him cautiously and quietly.

Upon approaching, the attendant bent down, leaned close to Pei Nanxing's ear, and reported to him in a very low voice the trivial matters from the palace.

Pei Nanxing's gaze never left the bright moon, and he seemed to show no interest whatsoever in the trivial matters of the palace that the attendant was talking about.

However, when the attendant mentioned that Pei Yunjing had invited the Imperial Advisor to study the Phoenix Bronze Mirror together, Pei Nanxing's originally calm expression finally changed.

He couldn't help but let out a cold snort, which instantly shattered the tranquility of the night.

Then, with a hint of dissatisfaction and reproach, he said, "Nonsense! Does he really think Pei Chuan is completely unaware of this, acting so rashly?"

Although his voice was not loud or clear, the anger it contained was like a surging wave. Despite being suppressed, one could still clearly feel the intense emotion.

Pei Nanxing slowly turned around, his back to the bright moonlight that poured down like water. His figure instantly blended into the boundless night, as if he had become one with the darkness.

However, against the backdrop of the deep night, his figure appeared even more profound and elusive.

Pei Nanxing lowered his head slightly, lost in thought for a moment.

After a short while, he began to mutter to himself:

"Why have I never investigated the matter of the Phoenix Bronze Mirror in depth before? You must know that this bronze mirror is a matter of chance that cannot be obtained by human effort."

As he spoke, a deep sense of regret was revealed in his words;

It was as if Pei Nanxing was recalling a major decision he had made in the past.

Pei Nanxing knew very well that the secret hidden behind the Phoenix Bronze Mirror was definitely extraordinary.

It is not merely a precious treasure displayed in the inner courtyard of the palace for people to admire and play with; more importantly, this bronze mirror also carries a mysterious power that can connect two completely different worlds.

Because he deeply understands that in this vast world, there are always things that are beyond the control and reach of humankind.

Thinking of this, Pei Nanxing couldn't help but sigh softly, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.

He shook his head and said softly:

"Sigh... Pei Yunjing is such a child, his personality is just too impatient and impulsive." His words revealed the concern and worry of an elder for a younger generation.

He decided to go to the palace to meet Pei Chuan first thing tomorrow morning, firstly to understand Pei Yun Jing's true intentions, and secondly to advise him not to easily venture into unknown areas.
