Shelley's point of view...It was evening and I felt a lot better now, three days in consequence, he had been visiting me, it wasn't like this before, I can't understand one thing, What had gone into him?When I read that novel, the author made sure he hated Luli, he couldn't stand her presence let alone cling to her.Why did he change his attitude toward me?Is that because it was me, not Luli?Did that make any changes?It was so confusing that I had been on it from the moment he was acting weirdly and yet I didn't get any of my answers."Manger...!" I called out and she came running in, I wanted to drink that medicine or at least pretend to drink before these spies, so that he won't stay here tonight.It is so embarrassing to sleep with a man alone. I can't do it.I know that he is her husband, but not mine..!I can't take the risk, and I don't like him at all. That domineering brute.He always finds a way to kiss me, it's fine now but if he tends to stay here after my period, No
XiLiang's point of view...As soon as my brother left that scrap's palace, I went there and lit the knockdown incense to make them sleep and finish my work easily.After waiting for a while, I pranced into the room from the window, she and her maids all fell asleep to make my work easy, I got near to the bed and saw her sleeping with her face covered, that's it, what else do I want, I don't have to see her face too.It was dark in the room and my hands have my knife waiting for this one day, I raised my hand and tried to dig that knife into her. But I don't know why I hesitated, this is not the first time that I wanted to kill someone, I am a general I don't talk much as my sword does. Then why was I hesitant?This won't help me, I need to do something else to get rid of this scrap. So I decided to light the entire palace on fire but those maids did nothing wrong, I can't kill innocents, so I decided to save them, which I can do after I light the fire here. So before doing that I po
XiLiang's point of view...Yanshu...!Other than that name no other one can make me smile, I don't know why but I was enchanted by her, just her eyes were enough to make me drown in them. The first time I saw her I was like, shocked for a while, Does a beauty like this, really exist?I wondered if she was an angel that just came down from the heavens just for me.I was never a man to be taken back by beauty, but she is different and unique.From that moment onwards, I had been searching for her, everywhere. I spread my men across the country only searching for that one girl. But even after trying a lot, I got nothing but failure.That day when Ahzong said that she disappeared from the chariot, I didn't believe him, but when I found her in the store room, I was amazed. For once, even I thought that she possess some kind of magical powers because she disappeared from there as well, but now I found her back.She is standing in front of me, I never assumed that after searching for her eve
Xi Cheng's point of view...I left her to rest as I have another thing to attend to, Ahzong said that that girl, XiLiang is fond of, is going to perform in the restaurant, and he refused to go get her, but I will, for him.I disguised myself in normal attire and then went out of the palace.When I reached that restaurant, it was dark and empty. I asked Yifeng to enquire about that dancer, and he came out so soon along with the in-charge lady of that restaurant.She made it very clear that there was no such announcement made by them, in fact, that girl didn't visit them from the day she was abducted by Ahzong, and she even thought that he might have killed her.I asked her whereabouts and that old lady made it very clear that that dancer didn't reveal anything except for her name Yanshu.I ordered Yifeng to call for an expert artist who can draw a painting of that woman with the features described.Soon a young man came to me to tell me that he already had the painting as he was impres
Shelley's point of view...I woke up in the morning calling for Manger but was attended to by a little boy, that same boy who opened my game before his master. It was so embarrassing. The curtains of the bed were down, and he was kneeling at a little distance."My lady, do you want anything?" he asked me standing behind the curtains, "What are you doing here?" I was confused about why he was at my palace but soon I got back to my senses, it wasn't my palace, I was in Xicheng's palace.I jolted up to a sitting position, looking around, I was sleeping on his bed, in his room.Horrifying...!What else do I need to fear?What a good morning surprise!But he wasn't around, did he go somewhere?"Where is your lord?" I asked that little boy as other than him there wasn't anyone around, "My Lady, Lord went to meet his brother, young master, and ordered me to take care of you...!" his words sent chills down my spine.Meeting his brother...!No...! Shit...!That man, XiLiang, already holds g
XiCheng's point of view...I was confused by XiLiang's behavior, he was furious at Luli all this time, and he wanted to kill her no matter what. But suddenly what got into him, was that he was acting weirdly today.He even called me to ask about Luli, if she has a sister, or who else she has in her family. His extra interest in my wife is giving me a sense of insecurity.I can't get a bit of it, let alone speculate anything.His panic and his hesitation gave me a different kind of fear that something is going to be destroyed.I know it is rubbish, I can't doubt my brother but her bewitching beauty is beyond everyone's control.I can't let this happen, I have to pace up my relationship with her, and only then I will be able to calm myself.XiLiang was never a man admiring beauties, but why do I feel that other than the girl he saw in the inn, he is also interested in Luli?He said that he is leaving today but there isn't any kind of preparation seen here in his palace."Aren't you goin
Shelly's point of view...One week challenge with the king of devils, isn't it a death wish?but do I have another chance?All I could do is to accept it, he asked me to wear my normal outfit and be his maid, without wearing the attendee's uniform. That's a good thing though.Today will be their first day as his maid, he asked me to prepare tea for him, it was just a one-step thing, just as easy as pinching someone. I confidently strolled to the kitchen and boiled the water for myself, these people drink green tea, not the milk tea that we have in our world.I infused the tea leaves in the cup of boiling water and brought it to serve him."Take this" I kept that in front of him on his table, he just glanced at it before remarking on it. "It's not hot enough, and the tea leaves didn't get infused" he commented on my hard work, I was frustrated at his behavior. he was purposely picking up on me.I took that cup and went back to the kitchen, this wasn't the only time he did this, I had
Shelley's point of view...As I turned around to see how that tree laughed or who that was actually, I saw a man jumping down, with a wonderful swirling style, from the wall next to the tree, his hands were hugged at his back and his dress was giving him a look of a freshly bloomed lotus flower, it halted my breath I felt that my heart forgot to beat in its cadence.He was so handsome though these people have long hair, the way tugging them into a fixed bum over their head gives them a respectable yet beautiful look, that any girl's heart will flutter like hell just looking at him. Mine too, but in a different way precisely, I was frightened instead of getting attracted. XiLiang...! the other devil lord who almost devour me yesterday...!Why the hell these Xi brothers are everywhere?I am tired of these two.I turned around towards the palace to slide away as his presence was a little strangling for me. "Yanshu...! or the great Phoenix dancer...!" he let out jolting me, I halted my
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
