Finally, after revealing the secret she had kept buried in her heart for so many years, Lanqin breathed a sigh of relief. Over the years, she had harbored a certain desire to tell others about this secret.
After saying all this, Lanqin looked at the Fourth Master with some worry, but the Fourth Master remained silent. Lanqin was very afraid that the Fourth Master would distance himself from her because of this matter and be regarded as a monster, which was the last thing she wanted to see.
Lanqin said with some worry, "Your Majesty, I know these things are hard for you to accept. After all, I couldn't believe it when I first came into this world."
"you……"
"No wonder……"
Hearing the Fourth Prince mutter to himself, Lanqin thought he was frightened by what she had said, and quickly said, "I don't know what happened either. Anyway, when I woke up, I became Niohuru Lanqin."
After a while, Fourth Master suddenly laughed and said, "No wonder you have so many strange ideas in your head. It turns out you are from the future. That makes sense."
"What? Your Majesty, you don't blame me?" Seeing the Fourth Prince smile instead of being angry, Lanqin froze. Before this incident, Lanqin had imagined the Fourth Prince's reaction many times, but she never expected him to say such a thing. Therefore, Lanqin asked in disbelief.
"Why should I blame you?" Fourth Master reached out and smiled as he smoothed Lanqin's slightly disheveled hair.
Upon hearing this, Lanqin blurted out without any hesitation, "I have kept this from you for so many years, and I am not the real Niohuru Lanqin."
"What does it matter? Whether you are the real Niohuru Lanqin or not is meaningless to me."
"I am pleased that you have told me this. As for Niohuru Lanqin, what I love is not the name, not the identity, but your soul from the modern world."
"Your Majesty..." Hearing the Fourth Prince's words, Lanqin was speechless, deeply moved.
"Lanqin, what haven't I seen in my life? When I was young, I was never afraid of anything. Although what you call 'time travel' is somewhat unbelievable, the world is so big, what wonders are there? It's all just fate."
After tidying Lanqin's hair, the Fourth Prince cupped her face and continued, "Now, there is only one thing I want, and that is for you to stay by Zhen's side forever."
"Yes, I will." Hearing this, Lanqin nodded vigorously. Seeing that Fourth Master finally smiled, Lanqin's worries were relieved, and she reached out to hug Fourth Master's waist.
The Fourth Prince's voice came from beside her, "What kind of future life did you come from?"
"When I came here, it was the 21st century. At that time, there were tall buildings everywhere, technology was developing rapidly, and the whole world was communicating and exchanging ideas."
"Does the Qing Dynasty still exist?"
Lanqin shook her head. "The Qing Dynasty lasted for eleven emperors before it ended."
"Then which clan did the emperors of later generations belong to?"
"There were no more emperors in later generations, and the system of monogamy was maintained between husband and wife. Men were no longer allowed to take concubines."
The Fourth Prince then asked, "Without an emperor, wouldn't the country be in chaos? If men don't take concubines, what will happen if their wives can't bear children?"
Lanqin smiled and said, "The country is governed by talented people elected by the people. Couples who cannot have children can have in-vitro fertilization, or they can choose not to have children."
The Fourth Prince was even more puzzled. "What is in vitro fertilization? If we don't have children, won't the family line end?"
