Traveling through the millennium: creating a prosperous dynasty with you

After the conversation, the two entered the space. The first thing that caught their eyes was two tall buildings. An Chen counted silently. The lowest one had fifteen floors. It was not only tall but also covered a large area, comparable to a palace. No matter how calm An Chen was, he could not hide his shock. He murmured, "How could such a large building be built? It looks like what I saw in my dream. Is it the same place? The girl in the dream - is she Xu Zhen?"

Xu Zhen followed his line of sight and looked over: "This is the Ordnance Material Research Institute where my father works. Their building actually has only five floors above ground, and the other ten floors are built underground. The deeper you go, the more confidential it is. Only staff members can enter the floors below the third underground floor. There are checkpoints on each floor, and outsiders can't get in at all. The five floors above ground are allowed to enter, but you have to apply in advance. Their institute is in the heart of the desert, and ordinary people can't get there."

An Chen An suppressed his excitement and said, "No wonder you said you were over the desert the day you landed at the military camp. The military camp is still far away from the desert."

"Do you still remember, did you think I was crazy at that time?"

"Hmm? No, just confused."

"The ecological environment has been destroyed and desertification is serious. We have started to plant trees to prevent wind and sand. People of my generation liked to do this kind of thing. The air pollution is very serious. It's better here. The air is fresh and everything is green and pollution-free."

An Chen didn't understand some of the words, but he could guess the general meaning: no matter when, sabotage will be punished.

Xu Zhen shook the hand held by An Chen and said, "Come on, I'll take you to see it."

The two suddenly realized that they had been holding hands. An Chen rubbed his fingers gently a few times: soft and tender, his whole senses were on that hand, a tingling sensation quickly spread from his hand to his whole body; Xu Zhen suddenly felt his body stiff and dared not move, his face flushed, his ears hot, and his heartbeat accelerated.

Xu Zhen took a deep breath to relax himself. He took An Chen into the building and showed him floor by floor: elevators, lights, various electrical appliances... An Chen was shocked and numb. He just listened and watched all the way and didn't know who to ask. There were several underground floors that could not be reached, so Xu Zhen took An Chen to the restaurant.

"You haven't eaten yet since you got home, right? You can eat all of these things you see. I'll treat you. Pick whatever you like."

An Chen looked at the various things placed on the long table that was dozens of meters long, "There are so many, won't they go bad if we can't finish them?"

"The space has a fresh-keeping function. It stays the same as it comes out of the pot. There are even better ones. Take one and try it."

Since he couldn't let go of the hand that was holding him, An Chen took a dish with his free hand, and a second later, another dish exactly the same appeared. An Chen couldn't control his expression anymore, and his eyes widened in shock.

"It's so magical, you must be a real god!"

Xu Zhen said: "This is the power of space. I am just lucky enough to be able to use this space."

"No wonder the national teacher said that you are the turning point. How could He Huan not be able to strengthen the country and maintain peace with such a heaven-defying artifact?"

Suddenly, An Chen frowned, looking worried: "Zhenzhen, all the countries are looking for you, as well as the big underworld forces and gangs. Don't reveal these to others. Your safety is what I care about most!"

Xu Zhen sensed the sincerity of An Chen's concern, and she said, "Don't worry, no one can hurt me. You will understand slowly."

After the two finished their meal and walked out of the institute, Xu Zhen pointed to another taller and larger building and said, "That's the warehouse. It has all kinds of supplies for food, clothing, housing, transportation and daily necessities. You can find anything you can't think of."

The two were about to go to the warehouse when Xu Zhen felt someone knocking on An Chen's door. She took An Chen out of the space. Before An Chen could figure out the situation, he heard knocks on the door.

"Your Majesty, someone has come from the palace to tell you and Miss Xu to enter the palace."

An Chen opened the door and told the housekeeper: "No need to prepare meals, prepare the car."

The butler replied yes and left to prepare the car.

The two of them packed up a bit, and the clothes that An Chen had someone buy for Xu Zhen were delivered.

"Just make do with it for now. The custom-made ones are already being made."

"Thank you! I thought of preparing these for me right after I got back. Don't you need to measure the size?"

An Chen lowered his head and said embarrassedly: "I carried you all the way back, and I probably knew the size, so I didn't come to disturb your rest. Just let someone make it, and if it doesn't fit, let them modify it."

Now it was Xu Zhen's turn to blush.

An Chen quickly explained: "Don't be angry, I didn't mean it. I-I-"

Xu Zhen took a deep breath and raised his head. "Forget it, I'm not mad at you. You've worked hard to bring me back to the capital. Special circumstances require special treatment. I don't blame you."

An Chen finally felt relieved. She said, "Wait a moment. I'll ask Madam Li to help you change your clothes."

Xu Zhen called it, "An Chen, wear my own clothes this time. Since the Imperial Master can predict the turn of events, he must know where I came from. In order to avoid future troubles, I must let the Emperor see that I am different."

An Chen frowned and thought for a while. He was worried that after the secret was discovered, many people would want to seize it. The space seemed to be built into Xu Zhen's body. If she didn't want to, no one could see it, let alone use it. In case of danger, she could enter the space and no one could find her. She came here to help them, and her ability would be known to the world sooner or later. She had to become stronger so that people would not dare to hurt her, and they would not even dare to think about it. After thinking this through, he said to Xu Zhen: "This is good! I'll take care of everything, don't worry."

The two of them rode in a carriage together. On the way, An Chen listened to Xu Zhen's introduction to the modern world, and he became more and more certain that it was the place he went to in his dreams. He always forgot those dreams after he had them, until Xu Zhen appeared. He dreamed again, still in that strange world, but this time he didn't see the girl again. After waking up, he not only did not forget the dream, but also remembered that this dream started when he fell off a cliff at the age of ten.

In the dream, he couldn't see the face of the girl who played with him, but her figure was exactly the same as the girl opposite him. In the dream, the girl grew up with him, played with him, and taught him everything around him. Those things were consistent with what Xu Zhen said. Although he could only dream about her a few times a year, the girl had already penetrated his heart, and he was sure that Xu Zhen was the girl in his dream.

"No wonder I felt so familiar the first time I saw you. It wasn't a dream, it was you!" An Chen became more and more excited, and his eyes became more and more passionate when he looked at Xu Zhen. Xu Zhenzhen lifted the curtain with one hand and leaned on the window frame with the other hand to look at the ancient street. She seemed to have sensed something, and turned to look at An Chen, and met the annoying eyes of Xu Zhen: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

An Chen smiled dotingly: "It's great that you're here!"

Xu Zhen looked confused: "Huh?"

An Chen smiled slightly and rubbed Xu Zhen's head. "I'll be there soon. Come back and tell me."
