What does it mean that she gave me this token?
Logically speaking, the little green tea has now changed her face to the point that Gu Mu would never recognize her.
If her plan to change her face is true, she must want to get close to Gu Mu under another identity, just like she did at the inn that day.
But now,
The scheming girl handed the token that the original owner had given her back to Gu Mu, directly revealing her identity.
What is she up to?
Gu Mu's eyes lingered on the token.
When the envoys saw Gu Mu's gaze, they were secretly delighted—there was hope!
It seems that the young lady is not only stunningly beautiful, but also quite shrewd. If we could truly offer her to His Majesty of the Southern Kingdom…
The envoys all wore expressions of excitement.
Gu Mu took out a handkerchief from his pocket, wrapped it around the token, and picked it up.
It was as if the token was dirty, which made him unwilling to touch it directly with his hands.
Gu Mu was actually worried that the little green tea had poisoned the token.
Although he now has antidotes and an empress who is an expert in poisons, there is no poison that can kill someone simply by touching it without cutting their skin.
However, the fact that the "green tea" girl changed her face twice suggests that she used some unethical methods.
It's better to be cautious.
Gu Mu wrapped the token in a handkerchief and examined it closely.
Despite his caution, he was still very curious about what the little green tea was up to.
Sure enough, he noticed something unusual about the token.
A few more words were added to the token.
"My only love."
Gu Mu's hand went numb instantly, as if he had been electrocuted.
Some fragments of the original owner's memories appeared in his mind.
Back then, in my previous life,
After Little Green Tea tore Shen Ling apart with five horses...
She was then made empress.
On the day of the coronation, the original owner personally engraved these words on the token that symbolized their love.
At this moment, in Gu Mu's memory, the words that the original owner had carved were exactly the same as the token in his hand now.
Could it be...?
Gu Mu's eyes deepened.
Could it be that he came into this world not because he traveled through time to start over, nor because he overturned everything that had already happened...?
Does everything that happened in the past still leave traces in this world?
Otherwise, how could this token, which should have disappeared along with his previous life, leaving only memories, actually appear in this world and come into his hands?
Gu Mu always believed that... he had transmigrated, not only his soul, but also time itself...
It wasn't until I saw the token that I realized it wasn't that simple.
"Your Majesty..." the envoys asked timidly, "Would you be willing to meet that young lady?"
Gu Mu remained silent for a long time.
To see or not to see?
The little green tea girl made Gu Mu personally pick him up, saying that she only trusted His Majesty.
But it's very likely that she's just trying to trick Gu Mu into going to where she is. As for why she wants him to go there, Gu Mu doesn't know the reason yet.
But it's very likely related to the token in his hand.
Some truths need to be known; he can't keep running away forever.
"I'll see you." Gu Mu raised his eyes.
For some reason, his eyes were filled with coldness, which made the envoys below shiver.
At night, in the room,
Shen Ling slightly turned her head and glanced at Gu Mu.
Her beautiful eyes were full of inquiry: "Your Majesty, do you mean you are going to the Western Frontier to see a beauty?"
Looking into Shen Ling's eyes, Gu Mu felt a little guilty for some reason.
He clearly explained everything to Shen Ling; his trip to the Western Frontier to pick up Little Green Tea was definitely just because Little Green Tea possessed a secret he wanted.
But it seems...
Shen Ling still misunderstood.
"Take me with you," Shen Ling said seriously, turning her head to look at Gu Mu pleadingly.
They had only enjoyed a short period of peaceful life together, and now, Gu Mu was about to embark on another long journey.
Although His Majesty didn't actually tell him what the secret he wanted to know was, judging from His Majesty's serious expression, this matter must be of great importance.
Although she believed in His Majesty's abilities, anything that made His Majesty take it so seriously must be no small matter...
She was terrified.
For some reason, she always felt that she had lost His Majesty once...
She didn't want to experience the feeling of loss again.
Gu Mu wasn't unwilling to take Shen Ling with him. To be honest, if Shen Ling accompanied him, he would feel less lonely on the journey and it would be much more interesting.
but……
He knew the secret of the rebirth of the fallen spirit.
This secret is clearly related to the rebirth of the fallen spirit.
He feared that if the truth came out... Shen Ling wouldn't be able to bear it.
Looking at Shen Ling's pleading expression, he was conflicted for a moment.
Unexpectedly, Shen Ling grasped his hand and said earnestly, "Your Majesty, I am willing to face this with you, even if it means going to the Yellow Springs together. So Your Majesty, believe me, no matter what happens, as long as Your Majesty is by my side, that is enough."
Looking at Shen Ling's firm and serious eyes, Gu Mu finally nodded.
...
Everything went smoothly on the way to western Xinjiang.
Gu Mu made no attempt to disguise himself.
After all, no one dares to provoke His Majesty of the Southern Kingdom now.
After arriving in Western Xinjiang,
The monarchs of the various kingdoms in the Western Frontier received Gu Mu with the highest honors, but Gu Mu did not see Little Green Tea.
"Where is the person I'm supposed to pick up?" Gu Mu got straight to the point; he didn't have the time or inclination to play games with them.
