Chapter 409 The Princess of Tianzhu
"I'm still too young." Fang Han sighed, feeling a little regretful. "If I could travel back a few decades, the world might not be ruled by the Li family now."
"But now, the Tang Dynasty is firmly established, and it is difficult to change it."
Fang Han sighed again, turning to look at his younger sister. If he were alone, it wouldn't be so bad, but he had a younger sister who needed his care. Over the past few days, he and his sister had grown very close, and he couldn't easily abandon her. Therefore, whatever he did, he had to consider his sister's safety first.
"Big brother, I'm hungry." Suddenly, Fang Han's clothes were gently tugged.
Fang Han temporarily put aside his thoughts and prepared to find something to eat. While searching for food, he passed a house. This house was recruiting servants…
Fang Han paused slightly, a ripple of emotion stirring within him. He knew that becoming a household slave might temporarily solve his problems of household registration and survival, but it also meant losing his freedom and becoming someone else's appendage. However, looking at his emaciated sister beside him, he couldn't bear to let her continue to suffer with him.
"Fine, for my sister's sake, I'll bear with it for now," Fang Han decided to himself, and his feet involuntarily walked towards that house.
Meanwhile, after leaving Fengxian County, Tang Sanzang and his disciples had a smooth journey without encountering any major obstacles. They arrived in Yuhua Prefecture, where Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing each took on a disciple.
The three apprentices even went so far as to forge a weapon identical to their master's, as if they were going to inherit their master's mantle. After this little episode, they continued on their journey and encountered no further accidents along the way.
Finally, they arrived safely on the outskirts of India, where they came across a temple. Inside the temple, they met a woman and decided to take her with them on their journey. This woman was none other than the Indian princess who had been missing for many years.
However, when they brought the Indian princess into the city and met the Indian king, they learned after some questioning that the Indian princess had not disappeared in previous years, but had suddenly vanished a few days ago.
"On that day, five-colored divine light fell into the Imperial Garden, and then the Princess of Tianzhu disappeared!" Many guards and palace maids assured them.
Under these circumstances, the situation suddenly became very complicated. Was the woman rescued by Tang Sanzang and his disciples truly a princess from India?
Thus, the responsibility of solving the case immediately fell to Sun Wukong. Sun Wukong questioned many people, and then summoned the local earth god to inquire about the situation, only to discover that in this kingdom of India, there were only Buddhist guardian deities, and no local earth god existed.
Sun Wukong was not in a hurry. Instead, he summoned the Day-Roaming God and the Night-Roaming God. These two deities traveled between heaven and earth day and night and knew many secrets unknown to others.
After summoning the Day-Roaming God and the Night-Roaming God, Sun Wukong asked them about the true and false Indian princess. He wanted to know whether the Indian princess they had brought back was real or fake.
"Great Sage, to be honest, this princess is real." The Day Wanderer and the Night Wanderer did not reveal much information, still holding back some details.
"Then what about the Indian princess who was in the palace before?" Sun Wukong asked again.
As soon as Sun Wukong posed that question to the Day-Roaming God and the Night-Roaming God, the two deities instantly fell silent, as if they had been frozen in place. No matter how much Sun Wukong looked around, they kept their lips tightly shut and did not utter a single word.
Sun Wukong, being incredibly quick-witted, immediately understood the situation upon seeing this—there must be something fishy about this! He wouldn't give up so easily, so he pressed for more information. But the Day-Roaming God and the Night-Roaming God were like two clay sculptures; no matter how much Sun Wukong pleaded and begged, they wouldn't utter a word.
Finally, under Sun Wukong's repeated questioning, the Day-Roaming God and the Night-Roaming God seemed impatient. One of them leaned closer, lowered his voice, and revealed a clue: "Great Sage, this matter is no small thing and involves many things. If you really want to know, you might as well investigate the past and present life of this Indian princess. Perhaps you can find something."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately formed a plan. He bowed to the Day Patrol God and Night Patrol God as a gesture of thanks, and then dismissed them. He secretly pondered that he should report this matter to his master.
Back by his master's side, Sun Wukong said solemnly, "Master, I have ascertained that this princess from Tianzhu is indeed the real one. But the one before was probably an imposter."
Upon hearing this, Tang Sanzang immediately perked up and asked, "Oh? What exactly is going on? Why are there two Indian princesses?"
Sun Wukong scratched his head and said with a wry smile, "Master, this is all the way through. We don't know anything about going any deeper. This matter is complicated and we need to continue investigating."
Tang Sanzang nodded. Although he still had doubts, he knew that Sun Wukong had done his best, so he didn't ask any more questions. Seeing this, Sun Wukong secretly vowed to find out the truth of the matter.
Fortunately, the Day Wanderer and Night Wanderer gave him some direction, preventing him from wandering around aimlessly like a headless fly. He apologized to his master, then made a hand seal, and his primordial spirit left his body, heading straight for the underworld.
Upon entering the underworld, Sun Wukong went straight to the Yama King's palace. He didn't stand on ceremony and immediately said, "Brother Yama, do me a favor and investigate the past life of this Indian princess!"
Upon hearing this, Yama looked troubled and said with a wry smile, "Great Sage, checking lifespan and matters of life and death is just a piece of cake. But checking a person's past life is a big problem and can easily cause trouble."
Sun Wukong waved his hand dismissively and said, "It's just looking at my past life, what problems could possibly arise? Brother Yama, you can investigate with peace of mind. If anything goes wrong, blame it all on me, Old Sun!"
Seeing Sun Wukong's straightforwardness and his earnest pleading, Yama, the King of Hell, finally nodded and agreed. He personally took out the Book of Life and Death and began to search through it according to Sun Wukong's instructions.
"The contemporary princess of the Kingdom of Tianzhu..." King Yama had just read this far when he suddenly stopped what he was doing, looked up at Sun Wukong, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"So it was her! Great Sage, if you had said it was her earlier, I wouldn't have needed to flip through this Book of Life and Death." Yama said, then closed the Book of Life and Death.
Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong's heart stirred, and he quickly asked, "Brother Yama, do you perhaps know the past life of that Indian princess directly?"
Yama, the King of Hell, nodded and slowly said, "Those who can be reborn as princesses are often extraordinary people. They may have done good deeds and accumulated great blessings, or they may have had a noble and extraordinary status in their previous life. The princess from Tianzhu was just like that in her previous life."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately became interested and asked, "Then who was she in her previous life?"
King Yama pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "This princess of Tianzhu was, in her previous life, the fairy Chang'e of the Taiyin Star. She committed a transgression on the Taiyin Star and was banished to the mortal realm, reincarnated as the princess of Tianzhu." Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong began to grasp the situation. He felt he had touched upon the truth. But there was still one crucial question he needed to understand.
"Brother Yama, do you know why Fairy Su'e was banished to the mortal realm?" Sun Wukong pressed on again.
King Yama shook his head and said with a wry smile, "This happened on the Taiyin Star, and I have no right to interfere. If the Great Sage wants to know, he may go to the Taiyin Star to inquire."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong was troubled. The Moon Star was no ordinary place. Zhu Bajie's predecessor, Marshal Tianpeng, was banished to the mortal realm for harassing a fairy there. While there was some scheming involved, it was enough to demonstrate the strictness of the Moon Star's rules.
But now, in order to find out about the princess of Tianzhu, Sun Wukong had to go to Taiyin Star. He secretly considered the matter for a while, and finally stamped his foot, making up his mind.
After returning to his body, he informed his master, Tang Sanzang. He also wanted Zhu Bajie to go with him, since Zhu Bajie had been to the Taiyin Star before and might be of some help. But to his surprise, Zhu Bajie shook his head repeatedly upon hearing this, saying he dared not go.
"You fool, you're such a coward!" Sun Wukong teased Zhu Bajie, but he understood his concerns. So, he didn't insist and somersaulted off towards the Moon Star on his own.
Soon, Sun Wukong ascended to the heavens and arrived at the territory of the Moon Star. Upon entering the Moon Star, he immediately restrained his usual arrogance and became cautious. He made a special announcement before being allowed to enter the Moon Palace.
He successfully entered the Moon Palace and met the Moon Goddess. He quickly stepped forward to pay his respects: "Sun Wukong greets Your Majesty."
When the Moon Goddess saw that it was Sun Wukong, she smiled slightly and asked, "What brings you here, Great Sage?"
Sun Wukong then recounted his experiences and purpose in detail: "I want to know why the fairy Chang'e was banished to the mortal realm."
The Moon Goddess didn't put on airs and answered directly, "When Su'e was in the palace, she punched the Jade Rabbit for no reason, violating the palace rules, so I banished her to the mortal world. She couldn't return and could only be reincarnated as a princess of Tianzhu."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. He thought to himself that the rules of the Taiyin Star were indeed strict; just one mistake had caused a fairy to fall from heaven to earth.
At the same time, he keenly sensed from this answer who had a grudge against Su'e. He glanced around and realized that he hadn't seen the Jade Rabbit pounding medicine since he came in.
He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Goddess Taiyin, isn't the Jade Rabbit on this Taiyin Star?"
The Moon Goddess glanced at Sun Wukong and slowly said, "She descended to the mortal realm. Some time ago, the young Taoist Lin Nan built a temple for me in the mortal realm, and I sent the Jade Rabbit down to Chechi Kingdom. It has been many years since then, and the playful Jade Rabbit has not yet returned."
"Go down to the mortal realm and enter Chechi Kingdom?" Sun Wukong never expected that this would be related to Lin Nan of Chechi Kingdom. He couldn't help but feel helpless, but things had already developed to this point, and he could only accept reality.
"Is the Great Sage going to find the Jade Rabbit?" the Moon Goddess asked leisurely.
Sun Wukong nodded and said, "That's right. I have some things I want to ask her."
The Moon Goddess smiled slightly and said, "If you see the Jade Rabbit, please pass on a message for me: she has been in the mortal realm for long enough, it's time for her to return."
Sun Wukong had no choice but to agree, bid farewell, and leave Taiyin Star. On Taiyin Star, he dared not stray even slightly. After all, in this Heavenly Court, the Taiyin Star Lord was one of the celestial beings he feared and dreaded.
Having left the Moon Star, Sun Wukong was somewhat troubled. "Do I have to go back to Chechi Kingdom?" he wondered, scratching his head in frustration, feeling quite troubled.
But by now, he has searched high and low, going to great lengths to uncover the truth. Giving up now is simply not in his nature.
"Fine, I'll go to Chechi Kingdom and ask the Jade Rabbit for clarification." Having made up his mind, Sun Wukong immediately headed towards Chechi Kingdom in the lower realm.
With Sun Wukong's abilities, he naturally arrived in Chechi Kingdom very quickly. He didn't bother to conceal his presence and swaggered into Chechi Kingdom.
As soon as he arrived in Chechi Kingdom, he saw a figure ahead. The figure looked extremely similar to him, except that he was wearing a Taoist robe and had six ears on each side. It was none other than Lin Nan's eldest disciple, the Six-Eared Macaque.
"What is he doing here?" This question still flashed through Sun Wukong's mind.
The next moment, the Six-Eared Macaque spoke up, saying, "My master told me to wait here, saying that you would come to Chechi Kingdom. In order to prevent you from running around in our Chechi Kingdom, my master asked me to take you directly to see the Jade Rabbit Fairy."
After this simple explanation, Sun Wukong immediately understood what had happened. It turned out that Lin Nan had been prescient and already knew his intentions, so he had sent the Six-Eared Macaque to wait here in advance.
Sun Wukong didn't stand on ceremony and readily agreed: "Alright, Brother Six-Ears, please take me to see the Jade Rabbit. I have some questions for you."
The relationship between Sun Wukong and the Six-Eared Macaque was initially one of fierce rivalry; they disliked each other as if it were their birthright. However, as time passed, this relationship gradually improved.
Now, when they meet again, they no longer find each other unpleasant and can even exchange a few words normally. The Six-Eared Macaque called out, "Follow me," and headed towards a mountain.
That mountain, with its clear waters and lush greenery, is brimming with spiritual energy, like a fairyland on earth.
"The Jade Rabbit Fairy lives in seclusion here. If you have any doubts, you may go inside and seek her answers." The Six-Eared Macaque said slowly, his tone solemn. He then added a special reminder, "The Jade Rabbit Fairy has a deep connection with my master. When you meet her, please do not be disrespectful."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong nodded and replied, "Understood, understood, I know what's important." With that, he strode off into the mountains to search for the legendary Jade Rabbit Fairy. (End of Chapter)
