This time, I don't care about the results, I only care about my heart. This time, I just want to write a book properly. This time, I'm writing about hope, about the deepest dream in my heart. I really want to travel through time seriously and truly live in my dream. I am ordinary and mediocre, but my dream is anything but mediocre. Every night before I fall asleep, I enter my dream space and live there bit by bit, inch by inch, starting from scratch, to create a dream space that belongs to me and to everyone. However, this space feels more real and more workable than any space in any of my previous novels. This wasn't originally the book's synopsis; the prepared synopsis was far more impressive. I just wonder which drunkard was singing "The City of Horse Herding" outside the study late at night, and how many wives he'd had, singing it with such heartbreaking intensity. For some reason, it actually brought tears to my eyes, even though I'm a heartless, nearly fifty-year-old fat man. People, you know, become less and less capable as they get older. And so, this is what the synopsis looks like. Please bear with it. If you don't like the book, feel free to criticize me in the book review section. I'm still the same as always, I'm all ears. Also, if you like books with youthful passion, please check out "Tang Brick", "The Wisdom of the Song Dynasty", "Silver Fox", "Han Township" and "Ming Dynasty". The books with the fewest subscriptions all have more than 25,000 subscribers per month, so the quality is guaranteed. This time, please allow me to travel through time slowly, happily, and with style. Sincerely, Your Old Friend 2

She experienced the Battle of Changping, witnessing the massacre of hundreds of thousands. She led the Qin cavalry, vying for supremacy with the six other states. She saw the world divided into three, the land shattered. She also heard the lingering melodies of the Longzhong Qin. She reveled in the prosperous Zhenguan era, but how did that legendary empress live her life? She rode in fine clothes and spirited horses, and also wore a feather fan and a silk turban. She was a farmer and a teacher. Yet, no one knows that such a person lived for two thousand years. Well, this is a relatively light and leisurely historical novel. Due to personal reasons, it may not be entirely historically accurate or withstand rigorous scrutiny. But I will try my best to research all the relevant materials. This is my first time writing this kind of story, and I hope it will be interesting, haha. Finally, be warned, this is a single-player story.

The powerful chieftain Jiang Dali sat quietly on a carved pear wood chair, his massive body bulging beneath his tiger-skin coat, exuding a strong, domineering, and fierce aura of power. His gaze was cold and composed as he looked at the newly recruited players on both sides of him. Flattery and sycophancy constantly emanated from the mouths of these leeks. "Great Chieftain is mighty and valiant, invulnerable to swords and spears, and invincible with iron palms. I beg the Great Chieftain to teach me martial arts!" "Chief, can people with sensitive skin practice Iron Shirt Technique?" "Brother, enough with the nonsense. The chieftain is notoriously ruthless and heartless." A player who had just resurrected at the City God Temple looked dejected. "Like me, I didn't understand the meaning of the words at first, and by the time I heard them again, I was already dead.
