mirror, displaying the same scene but in another parallel world.According to the shaman king, it was a parallel space where the river's watershed existed. It had been continuously moved and sealed by...It's quite convenient to get back to the Witch King's City. Mu Wanchen said his magical passage was rather ordinary, not as unimpeded as the Emperor's way of coming and going. 。"So, Little Princess, you better not run around. If you're caught and taken to another world, I'll be helpless..." He reached out and rubbed my head 。This height advantage is really frustrating. 。I'm not tall to begin with, I'm actually average and a bit on the shorter side. But he's so incredibly tall! If I don't watch where I'm going, I could easily bump my nose right into his solid chest. 。"I didn't run off, I'm right behind you!" I gestured to myself holding onto his sleeve. 。"That's best. I wish I could tie you to me, making you follow me everywhere... But you have your own things to do, and shouldn't give up your life for me. After all..." He paused, not continuing. 。"After all, what's what" I tilted my head and looked at him 。"After all... you're still young. It would be hard for you to adjust if you suddenly left home." 。He changed the subject, and said to me with a chuckle: 。This definitely isn't his true words, if he doesn't want to say it, it'll be hard to pry it out of him. 。Mu Wanchen held my hand, walking in the deep and majestic Witch King City. 。This part of the palace was deserted. On the massive stone platform was the private domain of the Witch King. Besides the guards and a few maids, there were no other people here. 。Before I came, he was alone. 。All his daily activities, from rising to retiring, took place within the frigid palace walls. 。He had millions of subjects under his feet, but none could live in this palace with him. 。The young wife said that before, Mu Wanchen's room didn't even have windows. 。Then the young mistress said a few words: no windows, water in front and back, heavy humidity, strong wind, it's probably not good for the female host. 。After that, I don't know how long it took, but Mu Wanchen finally installed the windows. 。I feel a little guilty. I should have stayed here with him more, you know He's been alone for so many years, and I've never really tried to understand his past. 。"What do you usually like to do here Read, perhaps Or check on your collection" I asked. 。"...most of the time he's not here, only coming back to sleep. When there are matters to attend to, he is in the main hall — the place where we received our congratulations after the wedding." 。He explained. 。"Well, what do you like to eat" I tried asking him 。Mu Wanchen was slightly stunned, then turned and stepped back a level, reaching out to pick me up—like he was holding a child, one arm lifted me. 。You 。He said with a hint of a smile. 。"...Are you picking a fight with me, King Wuzhi" 。I hugged his neck and rested my head on his shoulder. 。He held me and walked upward. I looked at the stairs behind him. They had forks and side paths, one leading to a sheer cliff and a raging river, the other to various passages inside the mountain wall. 。The bronze mirrors in those passageways, hazy and indistinct, held countless ghostly apparitions within. The mirror world had become another Wuzhang City - a place to imprison souls. 。... and also trapped Mu Wanchen 。

"Wanchen" 。" "Hmm" "The first time I met you, you were so scary." 。“Didn’t I just say At that time, I thought you didn’t cherish yourself, and I had to put the female gu on you. Now that I finally get to see you, I have to face the risk of you dying again, so my emotions are very volatile.” 。" He hesitated for a moment, then said softly: “ … I don't want anything to happen to you… After all, your name is carved on the cliff face, and I see it every day. In my heart, I’ve already accepted you as my wife." 。"Hmm..." I rubbed against his ear. 。No wonder he agreed to send me home after seeing that I was still alive. He was so accommodating, wasn't he Back in "our" room, that luxurious bedroom with its piles of brocades and silks, I found myself sitting on the bed... 。 It hasn't been lived in for a while, but everything is quickly tidied up. The hearth in the room is covered with two protective covers, safely emitting warmth and making this stone room not so cold. 。"Is there always someone here" I didn't believe that Mu Wanchen would personally do these trivial things, it must have been sent by that little girl. 。"I usually stay in the mountain city during the day, and sometimes I'll stay inside for a while" 。Mu Wanchen turned around to look for the cloak. 。He draped a snow-white, fluffy-edged cotton cloak over me: "In a while, I'll take you to the secret room to get medicine. It's cold there." 。" A secret room " "Can I go into a secret room You guys seem to have a lot of important secrets and places, aren't they not allowed for others to know about" I raised an eyebrow and asked. 。 You are not someone else, you are your inner self. 。He said faintly, "The secrets of Wuzhangcheng, I will tell you one by one." 。”

He pondered for a moment, his tone becoming somewhat serious, and his eyes focused——

“Little Luo’er, you are the Princess Consort. When I am not here, you are the one who holds the power here……”

“Ah Don’t you still have elders”

“……The elders’ authority has gradually been stripped away from them. Sometimes it’s not good to have too many people making decisions. Besides, I’ve already sent the important things to you and entrusted them to your care. Only then can I rest assured” 。He frowned slightly and said in a low voice. 。His hand is still gripping my cloak. 。In my heart, I faintly felt that the treasure chest he had sent last time was far more than just gold and jade – there was a small jade seal inside, it was the embodiment of faith. 。"I understand, I will take good care of anything you give me." 。I tiptoed and reached up to encircle his neck. 。He held me close, and the gesture naturally progressed into a kiss. Even though we still had important things to attend to, I didn't want to let go. 。"Oh dear..." A soft voice came from outside the door: "Sorry, sorry, Wuzhi Wang, I didn't know you were back." 。A little girl appeared outside the door, timidly lowering her head and shrinking at the edge of the door. 。> 。The maidservant who used to serve me is about to give birth, so I let her return to her family's home to rest. This one is new, brought by the elders... you've met the little imperial concubine before, haven't you 。Mu Wanchen frowned slightly. 。

This guy actually forgot the person's name.

"Little Lady, my name is Cong Xue... I'm here to replace my elder sister and take care of your daily affairs. Please feel free to give me any instructions you may have." 。She carefully lowered her head. 。I replied with two sentences, pouting a little out of displeasure. Though I'm thick-skinned and not afraid of being seen kissing, it's still a bit disheartening to be interrupted. 。Mu Wanchen knew my intentions. He glanced at me, his eyes holding a hint of amusement and seven points of doting, which made my face flush. 。He told Chunxue to prepare some hot food and water, then he led me from the "Library Vault" next to our room and opened a secret passage. 。This passage describes a secret chamber accessible only with the right incantation and mechanism. It leads to different rooms, each designed to protect something unique. One room, described as large and dry, houses rare medicinal herbs. 。"Ah, smelling the medicinal herbs, I feel like I'm home." 。I held a mortar and pestle in my hands, grinding medicine. 。Mu Wanchen was carefully grinding the medicinal herbs with a small stone mill, paying close attention to the weight, and answering at the same time: "... This is also your home. You should get used to being the mistress here, you can't always be the little princess at home." 。"Okay, okay~. Where are we staying here tonight" I had a little expectation. 。s extremely surprised: "Aren't you in Miao Wang City How could—"“Alright, alright, little wifey, let’s rest for a bit first, and talk later.” I soothed her. “Brother Long is injured, I’ll take care of...
