Chapter 90: Sheri Hoal 1


    Opening her eyes, Sheri found herself inside a white void space. It was out of her expectation since


    usually she always ends up in a dark void space but this time, it''s different.


    "System, where are you?" She asked as she looked around.


    She was somewhat fascinated at first with the different atmosphere but after a few tries of calling out to


    the system, she felt that something was amiss. For the past 30 minutes, she had been calling the


    system but there was no reply.


    She was exhausted inspecting the surrounding for any sign of any object but it was empty even from a


    speck of dust.


    "How I wish there is a seat or something in here?" She murmured while walking. Just as she finished


    her words, out of nowhere, a chair suddenly appeared.


    She was genuinely shocked.


    "Whoa! A chair, there''s a chair!" She gasps in unbelief.


    She cautiously walked towards it and reached out her hand to touch and feel if it''s real inspecting every


    part of the chair. Sheri smiles and just got seated. As she sat, she tried one more time to call the


    system but to no avail, there was still no reply. She shrugged, rxed herself and just waited for the


    system to appear. After a few seconds, a door suddenly appeared in front of her.


    "Whoa!" Sheri was given another surprise. Knitting her brows, she looked left and right to spot anything


    suspicious.


    Gradually, she rises and slowly approached the door. She went behind it and gave another inspection


    and while doing so, it suddenly opened. It feels like she was being invited to enter but she was hesitant.


    Nevertheless, out of curiosity, she took a step and walked inside.


    As she enters, an extremely shimmering light brightens the whole surrounding making her close her


    eyes. After a few minutes of silence, she opened them again and realized that she was in a room. Her


    brows were once again knitted together.


    "What is this? Don''t tell me I''m in my next mission? System-" Her words were cut off when ady


    dressed as a maid came into view and was running towards her without a stop. She panicked thinking


    that they would collide but the maid went through her.


    "Oh wait a second! Am I a ghost?" She asked herself.


    "The Furen has given birth." Shouts the maid. Right on cue, a cry of a baby resounded.


    The door was then suddenly opened and came a lot of people barging in moving to a particr room.


    She was curious and followed the crowd.


    On the room, a woman looking exhausted was lying on the bed. A few maids were scrambling cleaning


    and carrying out things that were used for the childbirth. A man approaches with a loving expression for


    her wife and their new born baby. She carried the child and kissed her on the forehead.


    "She will be called Xuě lì because of the small pear mark on her left arm." The man announced as he


    carefully looked at his child and the woman merely smiled. The whole household learning about her


    name rejoiced and celebrated.


    Suddenly, a eunuch came and reported an entrance.


    All of the people instantly knelt except the woman who was on the bed who turned out had fallen


    asleep.


    "Congrattions General! At longst, you have a daughter." Greeted by a man wearing a red Hanfu


    with a dragon and sun embroidered on it.


    The General, who was still holding her child, upon hearing those words from the man unintentionally


    tightened his hold which made the baby stir and cry out. The eunuch came forward and reached out for


    the baby from the prominent General and carried it to the Emperor to see.


    "Good, good, good" The Emperor praised andughed as he held the baby. Then he announced,


    "She will naturally be a beauty someday. I dere, from this day forwards that when she reached


    her adult age, she will be betrothed to my son De Wen. Let it be known to all and let it be decreed.


    Whoever will oppose will be executed in an instant."


    "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" The people kneeling on the ground shouted and


    bowed.


    Sheri on side witnessed everything that transpired without being noticed and saw the knuckles of the


    General clenching. It wasn''t shown on his face but she felt the displeasure by his action.


    The eunuch then took the baby from the Emperor and handed it back to the father. The Emperor then


    prepared to walk out from the room whileughing in contentment.


    After the silence, an old man approached the man who was looking devastated while gazing at his


    baby. He pats his shoulder as afort for him with the sudden urrence.


    Sheri was still trying to figure out what was going on. Why was she invincible and why was she on this


    ce? She understood that the time was in an ancient era and again, she was like a soul just passing


    by. She was confused and shocked about her situation right now. The system is still not answering her


    the more she''s confused. A cry of a baby then awakened her from her thought. She continued to stand


    by and for now, observe everything.

    The man handed over the baby to a nurse maid for breastfeeding. Then out of a sudden, it feels like


    she was watching a movie in a fast-forward speed. She was standing still and saw courses of events


    fast-forward in front of her. It had continued until the time abruptly stopped and the pace went to


    normal.


    "Howe they knew? We made sure everything was taken care of for it not to be known." The


    woman who just gave birth just a few moments ago cried out to her husband.


    "Shh, I already dealt with it. The cunning Emperor has a spy inside our house monitoring our actions


    without us knowing. We cannot do anything." The manforts the woman as she tears up bitterly.


    "You have to do something to protect our sole daughter!"


    "Shh, yes I know. I will. I will make it certain that she will not be caught in between battles for power."


    He kisses her forehead and helps her rest on the bed.


    "Oh" Sheri sighs and doesn''t want to conclude anything. Until now, the system is still not responding to


    her calls. She came to a point where as long as she''s not involved in this era or it''s not her mission,


    everything''s fine. She will just go with the flow.


    "No wonder he was so angry before". She wanted to step out the house and venture the area but it


    seems like she was stuck. She was being restricted.
