I did not expect to encounter Your Majesty here.
This trip was indeed worthwhile.
"Your Majesty, what about you? How did you come to be here?" Jiang Jingxin asked.
"I too, upon dying, opened my eyes to find myself here," Mu Lingyun improvised, not wishing to reveal the truth to him.
Jiang Jingxin had no suspicions. To him, it seemed magical to find oneself here after death.
He did not think such a thing could be manipulated.
Moreover, how they arrived at this world was actually not important.
What mattered was that they were both in this world, and they were alive and well.
"Your Majesty, are you the one who needed the silver needles tonight?" Jiang Jingxin suddenly recalled the matter of acupuncture and asked.
"Yes," Mu Lingyun nodded in acknowledgment, then continued, "This is a new era; there are no emperors anymore. You needn't call me Your Majesty, just call me by my name, shall you? Mu Lingyun."
