But problems have arisen, and they still need to be solved.

Simply running away won't solve the problem, so Guan Zhiyue stretched and buried herself in her food.

Li Qiji was eating with great relish. He had never eaten anything so delicious before. He never expected this food to be so good!

"Madam, this tastes even better than what the imperial chefs make!"

"Let's bring the kids to play then!"

Li Qiji was initially a little flustered facing this world, but when he tasted these delicious foods...

After seeing everything here, he suddenly realized that this place was truly wonderful.

Although he didn't quite understand what 'modern' meant, he had watched TV dramas on social media before.

But he never even considered that direction; he still thought he was in Guan Zhiyue's space.

Guan Zhiyue sighed. Sure enough, there's nothing to worry about!

I really envy her!

She quickly finished eating, then asked some questions to the other diners, and finally found a solution.

All she could do was call people she knew before and try to get their help.

Most importantly, she can't go to the police station; she can't explain clearly what happened between him and her.

Then they really will have a free place to stay.

After thinking about it, I decided against it and decided to try a different approach.

She bought a public card, found a phone booth, and tried dialing the number of her former agent.

"Beep beep beep~~"

Hello!

"Hello, is this Sister Li Hua?"

"I am, who are you?"

“Sister Li Hua, it’s me, Emily,” Guan Zhiyue said nervously.

The person on the other end of the phone instantly flew into a rage and launched into a full-blown tirade!

"Are you crazy? Emily is long gone. Which mental hospital did you come from?" The call was abruptly cut off.

Guan Zhiyue sighed, "Yes!"

She died a long time ago! How could she possibly wake up after so many years?

It seems that seeking help from acquaintances is no longer an option.

Who else could she turn to?

This was truly the first time she had ever been so disheveled!

Li Qiji sensed Guan Zhiyue's low spirits; he could even hear it.

On the other end of that thing, someone was speaking, even hysterically cursing.

"Yue'er..."

Guan Zhiyue hung up the phone, removed the SIM card, and walked towards a side path.

As they walked, they said, "Let's think of a way and find a place to stay."

So, after much tossing and turning, they finally arrived in a small town, near the countryside.

Guan Zhiyue rented a house. Although it was simple, at least the basic necessities were still there.

"Auntie, thank you!"

The woman, who appeared to be in her forties or fifties, smiled and waved her hand, saying, "It's nothing, the house's just sitting empty anyway."

Renting is fine with you, but you'll have to clean it yourselves.

"Sigh, okay, I'll handle this."

After Guan Zhiyue smiled and saw the person off, she looked at the somewhat simple two-bedroom, one-living room, one-kitchen, and one-bathroom apartment.

Still quite satisfied, she rolled up her sleeves, picked up the broom by the door, and began cleaning inside and out.

Seeing this, Li Qiji also started to help!

The two worked for a whole afternoon and finally finished tidying up as the sky was bathed in the glow of the setting sun.

"Come on, I'll take you to buy bedding, pots and pans, and stuff like that."

So the two went out for another big shopping trip, and after tidying up the house a bit, they finally lay down on the bed.

Li Qiji embraced Guan Zhiyue and recounted the events of the day.

"Yue'er, are you going to tell me a story?" Li Qiji asked.

Guan Zhiyue looked up at him before saying, "Tell a story? What makes you say that?"

"Exactly, how do you know this place exists? And why are we here?"

Guan Zhiyue sighed inwardly, "Just as I thought!"

What's meant to happen will happen!

She thought for a moment, carefully considered her tone, and organized her thoughts.

Only then did he slowly begin to speak: "I am a person of this era. On the night she was banished to the cold palace, she passed away from a high fever."

An accident happened to me here too, and then I died, and she died too.

"That's how I inexplicably found myself in another body, while the original owner has already been reincarnated."

"I really don't know why we came back to this place!"

“Didn’t we have a banquet at Changlan Hall last night? We even saw a black cat in the Imperial Garden.”

"By the way, Black Cat, why did you kick that black cat back then?"

Guan Zhiyue suddenly thought of something and looked up at Li Qiji.

Li Qiji said, "I saw it extend its sharp claws, trying to scratch you, so I..."

Guan Zhiyue was speechless; she had no idea what was going on! She was pulled into his arms.

And just like that, I inexplicably ended up in this place.

-----

In the Imperial Garden, Hua Quan was extremely anxious. He had heard the sound, but after searching the entire area, he still couldn't find the two of them.

In an instant, everyone in the palace went into search mode. As soon as Li Qishang returned to the Prince's residence, he heard a eunuch report that the Emperor and Empress had disappeared.

They searched the entire palace but still couldn't find anyone. Then they saw the water in the lotus pond in the Imperial Garden. It looked murky and turbid, clearly someone had fallen in and stirred it up.

Hua Quan sent people down to search countless times, but they still couldn't find the Emperor and Empress.

After listening to the two, Xiao Tuantuan walked into the house, locked the door, and tried to slip into the spatial dimension.

But she tried several times without success, which made her frown in displeasure. What was going on?

Why did it stop working?

If Guan Zhiyue were dead, she should have died too, but she's alive and well, which proves that Guan Zhiyue is fine.

Where did that person go? We still can't get into the space.

In her mind, Xiao Tuantuan connected all the questions, but she was still very confused!

"Husband, let's go into the palace and see what's going on!"

So the two of them hurried off towards the palace.

When they arrived, a dozen or so children were gathered in the Imperial Garden, their eyes filled with tears.

Even those who were about to leave the Ninth Prince gathered in the Imperial Garden, crying their hearts out.

However, Guan Zhiyue and the other person remained silent in their new modern room, unsure of what to say, simply looking at each other.

After a long silence, Li Qiji finally uttered a single sentence!

"If I could, I wouldn't want to go back."

Guan Zhiyue was shocked, and she looked at Li Qiji with some confusion.

Li Qiji explained, "Because this is where you truly live."

You came to my world to be with me in the first half of my life, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you in this world.

When Guan Zhiyue heard this, she felt a mix of emotions, a bittersweet feeling.
