Chapter 669 - Title is the Spoiler! (2/2)
She stood up and walked towards the painting. She squinted her eyes to look at it carefully.
” What is this? How come I never looked at it carefully?” Her mouth opened in shock when she got her first-ever lead.
”Daebak!” She exclaimed in happiness. Her eyes lit up seeing that thing. In the painting, a female sketch was made but what caught her attention was not the woman but the hairpin in her hair.
Since the painting was so detailed and beautifully done, the hairpin was also drawn with careful details on it. She has heard from Lu Shi that there is a tradition in the royal family.
The hairpin which the Old Emperor, ( Ji Cheng's grandfather) gifted to his wife has been descended from generations. It has become a symbol of love and title which was given to the Empress when she was crowned.
This hairpin was treated as the most precious treasure to the royal family since it not only holds the materialistic value but the emotional as well.
Lu shi told her that she had heard Ji Cheng and Wen Xu's conversation when she was unconscious. Wen Xu wanted to make Xiao Li the next Empress since she was unconscious. However, Ji Cheng didn't agree with it. In the end, he said that the royal hairpin was nowhere to be found so they can't proceed with this ceremony.
Wen Xu was ready to break this tradition but Ji Cheng stopped her. Surprisingly, the hairpin disappeared since she fell in that pond. No one found it around the pond or in her chamber.
It was like it had disappeared.
Although she hasn't seen that mysterious hairpin with her own eyes but now seeing it in this picture, she remembered that she has seen something similar in her dream as well.
The girl Tan Xiu, who was supposed to be her past self always used an exquisite jade hairpin which was similar to the one in the painting.
By now, she hasn't seen anything similar to her past story.
'So does it mean….the thing which I am finding is this hairpin?' her eyes widened when she thought about this possibility.
It would be crazy if it is true. She can't believe that a single hairpin was carrying the curse and has ruined her life for years.
She suddenly felt goosebumps when she thought about it. The hairpin looked breathtakingly beautiful even in the picture, how would it look in real life?
” Does it really hold the curse with it?” she mumbled while grazing the hairpin with her fingers on the painting.
Title: Cursed Hairpin.
