After guarding the area for a day and a night, he finally couldn't stay awake any longer and leaned against the tent for a short rest.
In a daze, I heard a familiar voice, "Finally home!"
This… isn’t that Yu Shan’s voice? He actually heard Yu Shan speaking? Finally home? Where did she go back to?
Anxious, Hongli wanted to find out the truth, but all he could see was a blinding white light. He tried to open his eyes wide, and the blurry scene around him gradually became clear. What came into his view was a strangely dressed girl.
The girl had long, loose hair and wore strange clothes. She wore a short white top that was so short it exposed her arms and didn't even cover her navel. Her lower body was even stranger; it looked like pants that tightly wrapped around her legs. But why wasn't she wearing a skirt over the pants?
She kept her back to him, seemingly packing something. Hongli waited anxiously until she turned around, and he was surprised to find that this girl had a face exactly like Yu Shan's!
But the imperial physician said Yu Shan had already stopped breathing! Then who is the girl in front of us? Is she his Yu Shan?
Where is she? The room is strangely furnished. The walls are colorful, the chairs are also multicolored, and they are not made of wood. They look oddly shaped.
He tried to talk to her, but she seemed not to hear him or feel his presence. She went about her own business, constantly washing and wiping, and even put a few fresh flowers in a vase.
After working for about half an hour, she finally stopped, lay down on a chair that resembled a chaise lounge, looked around, her eyes shining, a smile playing on her lips, seemingly very happy, and murmured to herself...
"I'm back! I'm finally back!"
If she is indeed Yu Shan, then is this the world she spoke of, the world that belongs to her? Just as Hongli was pondering this, he noticed that her eyes suddenly dimmed, her gaze gradually becoming empty, and as if she were thinking of something, her eyes reddened and tears welled up.
What's wrong with her? Is she thinking of him? Or the children? Is she... also feeling a pang of longing?
Hongli couldn't bear to see her cry. He longed to reach out and pull her into his arms, to offer her his shoulder to lean on, but no matter how he tried, he could never touch her. It was as if there was a barrier between them!
Just as he was wondering, he suddenly woke up and looked around. Hongli found himself still in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and Yushan was still lying on the bed in front of him.
So what exactly happened just now? Was it just a bizarre dream that he had because he missed Yu Shan so much, or was it Yu Shan's current situation in another world?
Hongli was eager to find out the truth, so he tried to fall asleep again. He closed his eyes, trying to drift off, but he just couldn't. His eyes were sore, but he just couldn't sleep.
He didn't know how long he had been tormented before he finally fell asleep again.
To his surprise, the girl who looked exactly like Yu Shan appeared before him again.
But she seemed to have changed her clothes; she was only wearing a dress with two thin straps, and the dress was so short that it didn't even cover her knees.
Then she closed the door and walked out.
Wait, where is she going? She's not going out like this, is she? With her snow-white arms and long legs exposed, she's just going out like this?
His consciousness followed her closely, and he was surprised to find that she really was walking out!
Although it was nighttime, the outside was filled with colorful lights, as bright as day. The unfamiliar scene before him left Hongli speechless, because all the pedestrians around him were dressed in strange clothes, but no one looked at Yu Shan dressed like that, and no one thought her outfit was strange.
She walked alone on the road, glancing around from time to time, seemingly filled with a sense of novelty about everything around her.
Hongli stayed with her the whole time. He had no time to look at the strange buildings around him. His eyes were always on her, afraid that she would get lost.
Before long, she arrived at a small stall that looked like a food stall. A short-haired girl waved to her, and Yu Shan quickly walked over and sat down in front of her.
The two ordered food and drinks, and chatted as they ate. They drank quite a lot of alcohol. Hongli never knew that Yushan had such a high alcohol tolerance. She drank three bottles without getting drunk and continued talking to her friends.
My friend couldn't help but exclaim, "You were inexplicably in a coma for twenty-three days, and then you woke up! The doctors all said it's a medical miracle!"
Yu Shan took another sip of wine and gave a bitter smile. "If I told you I traveled through time, would you believe me?"
The girl exclaimed in surprise, then shook her head and chuckled, "It seems you really are drunk. Don't drink anymore."
Yu Shan raised her finger to swear, "I'm not drunk, everything I said is true!"
She was so confident that the girl had no choice but to cooperate, "Alright then! Tell me, where did you travel to?"
Looking around, Yu Shan lowered her voice, "I've transmigrated to the Qing Dynasty! During the reigns of Emperor Yongzheng and Emperor Qianlong!"
Upon hearing this, Hongli's heart tightened. Wasn't she referring to his reign title? Could she really be his Yushan? And what did she mean by "time travel"?
