Shelly's pov...It was dark in that room despite it being early in the morning, just a beam of light falling from the roof barely enough to recognize things around me.I can't accept this as my fate, I need to fight back against those who want me to shed tears, against those who can't see me be happy. It doesn't matter which world I am in, the struggles will be the same, but I was never the person to accept my defeat until my mind says that I lost.I got up tearing the curtain cloth which was wrapped around me, and untie my hands from that loose grip of the piece of cloth that was tied on them.As I freed myself, I peeped around to find something useful but that place was like a stable, with nothing but broken wood planks, ropes, and dry grass everywhere.When I moved further, I found some scrap clothes piled up in a corner, jerking them off to remove any harmful insects, I took them to the beam of the light to see if they can help me get changed.Those were some thin and blunt men's
As I heard those sounds coming from the other side of the room, I was sure something was wrong with Huahua and her mother Manhua, but how could I help them,I had been patient enough for a long but when I heard someone slapping them, I clenched my fist, I can't tolerate this anymore, Deep inside me, I feel like those people may be here for me, so I can't go like this too.Fortunately, I have so many things here to hide myself and my look. This is a changing room to begin with, with many varieties of makeup things and dresses, I wore a male dress with vibrant colors and piled my hair dividing it into two halves and rolling them like two fountains on my head.I looked into the mirror and couldn't help to laugh, I think that was enough for my hair.I took out the makeup and covered my face with weird black color spots all over my face and on my teeth and completely tanning myself with the dark brown color. It gave me the most dangerous look ever. As I opened the door slightly, I saw a
I can't go in like this but I can wash this before I can go in, I looked around and found a short lake-like arrangement, covered with curtains, as I peeped in, there was no one, Hoo...!Finally, after a long-running race, I got some time to take a bath, as I touched the water, surprisingly it was hot, that's amazing, people in this land have so many arrangements, they even have a hot water pool, or lake whatever...!It's going to be awesome...!I took off my clothes, not completely, just those shabby ones, and freed my hair and got into the hot water with my inners on, After washing off all that makeup, I felt my skin alive again, it was so comfortable to take a hot bath now. I closed my eyes and was swimming upside down, facing the water, it's a good thing for mind relaxation. when I heard someone jumping into the pool, I was startled but before I could realize who that was, I was already in someone's hug, "Who...!" that back hug again, I think I know who that was, "Leave me...!"
I was sorting out the things that were jumbled in my mind, How could Jinwei know that I was abducted?Why does she say that it was XiLiang, that took me away?What the hell she was trying to do?"Tell me...! Did you sleep with him?" my aunt held my neck again, letting out such a slutty talk, "What...the hell aunt are you...!" I stopped my words, no matter how much I wanted to scold her, I can't do that directly, "Aunt, I was abducted by someone, they knocked me out and threw me in a shabby place, there was no one around, and I faced hell getting out of that room...!" I told her how hard it was for me to escape that place, She kept a puzzled face and was staring at me seriously, "Come on aunt, just think about it, why Jinwei informed you rather than go to the king? huh? and why her grandmother came early in the morning just to mock you about your niece?" I walked near to her, "She tried to push me into the lake last night, but I was saved, that might have given her a defeated fee
Shelly's pov...When I reached the Imperial kitchen I saw the servants ignoring me, "Who was the brave one that hit my maid...?" but even when I asked him none of them responded to me, Am I invisible?I tolerated it for a while but that behavior was a little too much to be tolerated."Who is the head here?" I yelled at them but they still ignored me, that was my limit with those tormentors, I strode forward and reversed a big container with boiling oil, they jolted back and then a middle-aged woman marched to me, "It's me... what will you do?" she tilted her head disrespectfully and was talking me that I was nothing there, I wanted to slap her but she held my hand, the maid beside me, jerked forwards, "How dare you stop the queen?" she started yelling at her but was beaten by the other maids working there, I was so shocked by their attitudes, How dare they?"You dare to disrespect me...!" I grunted, but she twisted my hand, "It was enough that I didn't beat you up because of yo
Xicheng pov...The whole night it was like a ruckus when I couldn't find Luli anywhere, sometimes I doubted if she deliberately hid from me, but her maid had been weeping her blood out for all this time.Soon after that, Yifeng came running to me, "My lord...!" I gestured for Aali to go back to her palace and wait for her master. When she left I asked Yifeng why he was desperate."My lord I heard something about the Queen," he let out with his head down to the ground, it was not his usual self, or the thing he heard was a little too much for him to speak out looking at me, "What is it?" I asked and he hesitated to answer me, "That...that...My lord, it's...!" his shattered words irritated me, "Spit it out, Yifeng, or don't blame me for cutting your tongue off" as he heard my warning he fell on his knees, begging, "My lord have mercy, I just heard that someone saw Junior master taking Queen Luli with him....!" his words jolted me up at once, XiLiang, taking Luli away...!What the
Xicheng's point of view...I held her face just to tell her that she is safe now but she rushed towards the edge jerking me off, her clothes are all wet and there are many palace guards around the palace, She shouldn't go out like this, I grabbed her waist and pulled her back to me but she was so near that I couldn't control myself from kissing her, she was unique, I don't know why I always get uncontrollable whenever I am around her, She hit me in my abdomen I pulled apart my lips, with a scream."Aahh...!" I heard Yifeng approaching here, I didn't call him because I don't want him to know who hit me.It was a rough hit, I couldn't speak out for a while, she was ready to escape, but her dress, I saw her grabbing my dress and draping it up instantly, that was a relief at least no one will see her like that."My Lord...!" he asked my permit to get in, and with just a hmm, he got in, luckily she was gone,"My lord are you fine?" he asked again, I nodded and he helped me out, it was st
Shelly's point of view...I was starving to death when I returned to my palace, I gave my maids some of those pancakes, though I miss Aali a lot, after what happened in the kitchen, these two were also so obedient, I will get Aali back from my dearest aunt anyway.Shoving off all those sad feelings I shook my head making myself focus on my pancakes, my delicious and ever-mouth-watering pancakes.The first bite gave me a hmm...kind of feeling, and an unexpected moan left my mouth."Hmm...!" But my fate now didn't allow me to enjoy it. I don't even deserve a pancake?I just delivered him, his meal but he was more interested in eating my brain, not roasted, not cooked but even uncooked, his favorite meal ever."My lord...!" I got my butt up reluctantly, to greet my special guest, I don't know why but he was here despite his meal being specifically delivered, "Leave us..." Uhh...!That shabby command, I am fed off that anyway, he is not here to kiss again, right?I looked at him with
The air was filled with an atmosphere of joy and anticipation as the grand hall was adorned with elegant decorations, vibrant flowers, and the soft glow of candlelight. The wedding banquet celebrating the union of Luli and Xicheng was a testament to their enduring love, and everyone from the film set, their friends, and loved ones had gathered to witness this momentous occasion.Luli, adorned in a breathtaking white gown that seemed to radiate with the purity of her heart, walked down the aisle towards Xicheng. She was looking gorgeous more than ever, making the hearts skip a beat for every man present in the ceremony and all the girls felt envy of her beauty.Her eyes were filled with a mix of nervousness and excitement, for this was the culmination of a journey that had tested their love and brought them to the edge of despair.As she reached the altar, Xicheng stood there, his gaze fixed upon her, his eyes filled with an intensity of love that could only be described as eternal.
Xicheng's point of view...As I stood there in the grand hall, surrounded by the glittering chandeliers and the elegant guests, I couldn't help but feel a rush of excitement and nervousness. It was the night of the annual awards ceremony, an event where the most accomplished individuals in our field were recognized and celebrated. I had been looking forward to this night for months, eager to see who would be honored and hoping that I would be among the recipients. But the main reason I was here was that I could see her again.Luli...!No, Her name was Shiely...!But for me, she was my Luli forever.Her doctor advised us to keep a distance from her till she recovers completely. It had been a month that I had seen her face and only I know how terrible my every second was, these days.Generally, I arrive at this kind of premier a little late, but desperation took over me and I was at the venue earlier than expected. After waiting for quite a while, I scanned the room, my heart skipped
Sheily's point of view...I know this is not the right place to burst out but I can't help it anymore. So I instantly walked a little away from that awkward situation as so many crew members surrounded him to congratulate him.I stood at a corner paying my eyes to wipe out the tears before they fell out to embarrass me. I was grabbed back from my chain of thoughts as Aali called my name loudly and I turned my gaze towards the entrance as she made her way back to my side. But what captured my attention was the sight of a familiar figure standing there, looking utterly dashing in a black tuxedo. "XiLiang...!" I muttered recognizing him.No...!Actually, Gu Xichen...!He stood before me, his presence commanding attention in a way that was both striking and surreal. He was a very good friend in my life as Luli, but I don't know what kind of relationship I share with him in this life. I had known XiLiang as a valiant and caring warrior, a partner in the palace's battles. But here he as
Shiley's point of view...The days leading up to my recovery were hard, I couldn't shake off the feeling that I lost everything. But I was also happy with what I gained in this new life. Aali... I mean Suli, told me that they say I lived in my role while acting, but seriously who would have guessed that I really lived in that world?I was nominated for an award...!I couldn't believe my fate for achieving my goal but unknown to me.I had a stage performance as well on that day, with that Phoenix dress that I wore on that day when I performed before everyone at the spring festival. I couldn't help but chuckle as I remember those gazes on me that day.The way to this achievement and the award function was a whirlwind of preparations and emotions. I was struggling, to speculate that it was all true. Aali, true to her word, was by my side every step of the way, guiding me through the intricacies of the event. In the evening he was here with the dresses I needed to wear tomorrow, to che
Shiley's point of view... The revelation hit me like a sudden gust of wind, knocking the breath out of me and leaving me momentarily stunned. Aali's words echoed in my mind, her voice carrying a mixture of excitement and disbelief. She had just disclosed that I had been acting in the very play that had been my reality for so long, the play that had shaped my life, my experiences, and my very sense of self.My mind stirred up as I just thought about it.I was acting...!That was all a play...?But how....!"Zian Chi? Co-star?" I repeated, struggling to comprehend her words, "Are you sure?" The pieces of the puzzle began to fall into place, and I realized everything was clear now. The world I had experienced as Queen Luli was nothing but a play that I had been acting in all this time. So unbelievable but was true.But it was more like a reality to me because I lived in it as my previous life. As Aali's voice filled the room of my mind, I felt a strange mixture of excitement and disbe
Shiley's point of view...I was in a deep dark tunnel, my eyes couldn't see anything my lips couldn't move either."Shiley...!" "Baby...!"I wanted to talk to the one calling me, but 'Shiley...!Who was calling me by that name?Am I, not Luli?I think I was dead again, but still, I can hear someone calling me.Is this my new life?Am I going to be in another world?Many confusions swirled into my mind when I thought about that but every time I feel lost, someone's concerned voice dragged me out of the thoughts.A lady's voice sounded so familiar.Aali...!My eyes fluttered open, the surroundings unfamiliar and sterile. The stark whiteness of the hospital room enveloped me, contrasting sharply with the vivid memories that lingered in my mind. Modern time...!Hospital...!Confusion gripped my heart as I struggled to comprehend my current reality, which felt like a cruel awakening from a beautiful dream.I attempted to move, only to be met with the dull ache of my body and the restrain
Author's point of view..."I will kill him" Xicheng screamed in fury. As Luli and Xicheng dug up about those maids, the fact came to light that those maids were sent here by Wang Haulan, the current king of the Qingbao, and also Luli's brother.It was he who was behind everything from the matter of Luli getting married to Xicheng and the conspiracy of the Empress Dowager, his aunt.XiLiang found the bodies of these maids on the outskirts of the capital city and reported them to his brother but they couldn't find the little boy anywhere except for his clothing signifying that it was indeed their plan to abduct the little Prince.With the new lead in hand, Luli with XiLiang began on a hazardous journey, following the trail that could potentially lead them to the young prince. They traversed treacherous terrains and faced dangers untold, their hearts driven by a mother's love and a warrior's resolve.Luli fell ill during the search so Xicheng and XiLiang insisted Luli take a rest in the
Author's point of view...As these years passed, the kingdom thrived under the loving rule of Xicheng and his loving wife Luli. Their child, the young prince, Xiyang grew up surrounded by the warmth and affection of their parents, as well as the adoration of the people. The royal family became a symbol of unity and prosperity, their presence bringing a sense of stability and harmony to the land. The people loved them and vowed their loyalty to their lives.Every step the young prince took was celebrated with joy and pride. The palace echoed with his laughter, his innocent giggles filling the air and captivating the hearts of all who heard them. Whenever Xiyang was taken out of the palace, all the citizens of their kingdom become his protection as if ready to give their lives for him.Xicheng and Luli reveled in the everyday moments, their child's first words, his first steps, and the unbreakable bond they shared as a family.Luli was overjoyed as she watched her life filled with h
Author's point of view...Days passed after the incident and the dust of the treacherous acts within the palace was now settled.With AhMei's deception exposed and her influence diminished, King Xicheng recognized the need to restore harmony within the palace. He understood that the concubines, once calm and silent, may entangle in a web of power struggles and political games. So to do justice for them, he decided that they deserved a chance at genuine and fulfilling love.In a grand assembly held within the palace, Xicheng called everyone to attend the assembly, and Luli and all the concubines rushed to the court. Addressing all the concubines, Xicheng's voice resonated with compassion and sincerity."Dear Ladies, it is time for us to liberate you from the constraints of the palace and the confines of the marriage bond. You have endured much, and I desire to grant you the freedom to pursue your own paths and find true love."Gasps of shock, astonishment, and gratitude filled the ha
