Although she was foolish, she knew how important her parents were, so she crawled out of the cellar, crying.
Lian Sheng pulled her and ran, telling her a secret proudly as they ran.
It turned out that Lian Sheng's mother had poisoned everyone in the palace, and Lian Sheng's mother was a spy from the Northern Qi Kingdom.
However, Lian Sheng's mother also poisoned herself and her husband to death. Before dying, she gave Lian Sheng a token that would prevent the people of Northern Qi from killing Lian Sheng.
In the end, Lian Sheng did not take her to see her parents, but pushed her into a pile of captured children and quickly turned and ran away.
She was caught by the soldiers and taken to the Great Xia Kingdom, where she was locked in a stinking slave shed.
Every day she suffered beatings and did heavy labor.
…
Fragments of memories from modern times also poured in, merging with Huang Xue Sheng's memories.
In the dream, Bai Sheng could not distinguish whether she was Huang Xue Sheng or the Bai Sheng from modern times. She desperately wanted to figure this out, but the more she thought, the more her head hurt, hurting as if it would explode.
"Stop thinking about it!" a voice suddenly echoed in her mind.
Bai Sheng remembered it was the voice of the faint figure from before.
The figure told her that Huang Xue Sheng was her, and the short-lived Bai Sheng from modern times was also her. She had not transmigrated at all, but her soul had returned.
Back then, she fell from the observation deck, and her three souls and seven spirits were split into two parts.
Two of her souls and six of her spirits drifted to the modern world and were reincarnated.
Because her soul was incomplete, or perhaps because her soul had always been unwilling to forget Qing Huang's parents, she was abandoned by her biological parents from birth and never experienced parental love.
The terminal illness that followed was actually her soul wanting to return sooner.
After hearing this, Bai Sheng's worldview shattered. Did souls really exist in the world? But if there were no souls, why would she have traveled through time and space?
Perhaps, she just couldn't believe what the figure said, because the timing didn't match. Huang Xue Sheng became foolish at the age of five. Ten years later, Bai Sheng transmigrated. Huang Xue Sheng was 15 years old, but Bai Sheng was already 28 when she transmigrated.
The figure chuckled, "The time conversion rate in each space is affected by various factors and is very complex. Everyone, every transmigration, can be different."
"But if you are Huang Xue Sheng, why do you know so much? The original owner was only fifteen when she died and was mentally incapacitated. Why do you know about souls?" Bai Sheng asked doubtfully.
"Because I am the Celestial Soul among the three souls. Alright, I won't talk to you anymore. Now that the three souls and seven spirits are complete, I will disappear soon. Remember, you are me, and I am you…"
When Bai Sheng opened her eyes, the words "You are me, and I am you" were still echoing in her mind.
The first thing she saw was Zuo Ye's gentle smile. "Good girl, you're awake?"
In the wooden house, he held her, his eyes filled with deep affection.
Bai Sheng didn't speak, she just looked at him. Tears gradually filled her clear, watery eyes. She raised her hand to touch her face, but Zuo Ye gently stopped her.
"Husband, my face is ruined, it's disgusting. Don't… don't look at me like that," Bai Sheng turned her face away and pushed against Zuo Ye's chest with her hand.
Zuo Ye instead hugged her tightly, saying firmly and gently, "In my heart, no matter what my good girl becomes, she is the most beautiful. No one can compare to her."
Bai Sheng's tears welled up in her eyes. "Husband, don't lie to me, and don't comfort me. I know what backlash is, and I know I'm ugly and terrifying. You don't need to lie to comfort me.
If you find me disgusting, I understand, because I find myself disgusting too.
You… please don't force yourself to accept me. We can divorce, and I won't blame you at all.
Besides, don't worry, I won't be depressed. I can live well without a man, and I still have many things to do."
Hearing Bai Sheng's words, Zuo Ye's eyes were filled with sadness and heartache. He suddenly took out a dagger and placed it on his cheek. "Good girl, if you think I'm lying to you and comforting you with lies, then I'll ruin my face too! And, we can transfer it. I'm willing for you to transfer the backlash to my face, so please don't be sad, okay? If you're sad, I'll be heartbroken."
Bai Sheng was startled and quickly reached out to grab his wrist. "No, I like handsome men. If you ruin your face, I won't love you anymore! Don't do anything foolish! I will find a suitable person to transfer it to, so please don't ruin your face."
Bai Sheng slowly moved the dagger away, but the sharp tip of the dagger still scratched a small cut on Zuo Ye's cheek. Blood flowed down his handsome face.
"Husband, you're bleeding," Bai Sheng raised her hand and used her sleeve to stop the bleeding.
"Don't bother with it!" Lu Ye suddenly leaned down and kissed her lips.
Her husband, her Zuo Ye, her Qin Zheng, was actually kissing her, kissing her, who was disgustingly ugly!
Bai Sheng's tears lingered on her pockmarked face. She closed her eyes and responded passionately to Zuo Ye.
"Has 'Black Face' woken up yet?" Prince Yu suddenly appeared at the doorway of the wooden house and was stunned to see them kissing.
The two who were busy were both shedding tears, completely lost in themselves, not caring if someone was standing at the door.
Prince Yu's heart sank, his Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he silently turned and left.
Granny Wu and Consort Mei walked over. "Yu'er, has Sheng'er woken up?"
"Yes, she's awake," Prince Yu nodded dejectedly.
Granny Wu and Consort Mei's faces lit up with joy. "She's awake? Then let's go see her!"
Prince Yu reached out and stopped the two. "Let her have some time alone with Xiao Ye."
Granny Wu and Consort Mei's expressions both dimmed.
Consort Mei sighed, "That's true. No matter how strong Sheng'er is, she's still a girl. What girl doesn't care about her appearance? Now that she's like this, she must be very sad."
"Don't worry, Sheng'er won't be depressed because of her face," Granny Wu stated firmly.
"Grandmother, do you have a way to cure 'Black Face'?" Prince Yu looked at Granny Wu with eager eyes.
Granny Wu nodded. "Of course. It can be transferred, but we need to find someone who has wronged Sheng'er, or someone who is willing."
"I'm willing!" Prince Yu said without hesitation.
Granny Wu looked at her grandson in surprise. Did this kid like Sheng'er too?
Consort Mei chided, "If you're willing, Sheng'er will certainly not agree. Don't all rush to sacrifice for her, it will only add to her psychological pressure. There will be other ways."
As they were talking, Zuo Ye helped Bai Sheng walk over. Bai Sheng wore a white gauze veil on her head, covering her face.
"Master, Aunt Qing, Cousin Jing Yu, you've made me worry," Bai Sheng said with a smile.
Consort Mei's eyes turned red. "Indeed? You scared us to death."
