Quickly Transmigrate to Save the Child of Heaven

Over the years, thanks to Daiyu's prescription for curing smallpox and her high-yield, high-quality seeds, the people of the country have benefited and enjoyed security. This not only won the hearts of the people, but also attracted the emperor's high attention and praise. As the promoter and practitioner of these achievements, Lin Ruhai naturally received the emperor's favor and reuse. As a result, Lin Ruhai's official position continued to rise, and his status became increasingly prominent. Just now, an imperial edict was received, appointing Lin Ruhai as the Minister of Revenue of the First Rank, and requiring him to return to Beijing immediately to take up his post. Upon hearing this news, Daiyu immediately ordered her housekeeper to start packing and prepare to leave for Beijing tomorrow. In the capital, the five-story mansion given to them by the emperor was already being taken care of by a dedicated person. Everything was ready, just waiting for the owner's return.

Before leaving, Lin Ruhai specifically summoned Daiyu, and the two had a long conversation. Lin Ruhai said with emotion, "Yu'er, your return to the capital to serve as Minister of Revenue is entirely thanks to you! Your wisdom and talent have benefited our family immensely." Daiyu smiled and replied, "Father, this is all the result of your years of hard work and accumulation. I have only contributed a small part." Lin Ruhai shook his head, looked at Daiyu seriously, and said, "No, Yu'er, your contribution cannot be ignored. Without the excellent prescriptions and seeds you provided, we would not have achieved such remarkable success."

Lin Daiyu: "Father, although you have been promoted, we still haven't found the person who poisoned you in the past few years. Living under the emperor's feet has many benefits but also many dangers. It seems that my daughter's marriage cannot be decided by you casually..."

Lin Ruhai nodded slightly, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes. He knew his daughter was right. In this capital city full of power struggles and conspiracies, every decision could affect the fate of the family. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "I've thought about it too. Do you want to marry a prince or the emperor? The emperor is now in his prime, and the princes are still young. Because I have contributed everything to the country and the people over the years, the emperor has already promoted our Lin family to the Zhenghuang Banner. If you wait until you are old enough to be selected, you will most likely become a concubine, a prince's wife, or a concubine."

Lin Daiyu's heart trembled. She had never imagined that her marriage would be linked to the imperial family. But she knew her father's concern for the family's future was the root of his concern. She sighed softly and said, "Father, please let me think about this matter for a while."

Lin Ruhai nodded, knowing his daughter needed time to think. He patted Lin Daiyu's hand gently and said, "Okay, daughter, no matter what decision you make, Daddy will support you. But before that, we must make all preparations to deal with any possible situation."

Lin Daiyu looked at her father with gratitude, tears in her eyes. She knew that her father had always been her strongest support and reliance. She secretly made up her mind to make the wisest and most beneficial choice for the future of her family, no matter what, and live up to her father's expectations and support for her.

After Lin Daiyu pondered quietly for a moment, she softly asked, "Father, what do you think the possibility is for me to become the prince's legitimate wife?"

Lin Ruhai frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Judging from the current situation, you are more likely to become a concubine. After all, although our Lin family has been granted the Lin Jia family name by the Emperor's grace, our foundation is still shallow and cannot be compared with those aristocratic families with generations of officials and deep roots. Although my father is a first-rank Minister of Revenue, his status and influence in the court are still limited." He paused, then continued, "However, this is not completely hopeless."

Lin Daiyu nodded, pondering her father's words. She understood her position and situation, and was aware of the responsibilities and mission she shouldered. She was determined to use her wisdom and hard work to strive for a better future for her family. At the same time, she also had to protect herself from harm and grievances.

Lin Daiyu thought for a moment and said, "Dad, I'm going to change the way I address you from now on. The great families in the capital call me 'Ama'. And you have to marry again and have a child to support me in the future!"

Lin Ruhai frowned and said with difficulty: "Yu'er, you know that your mother and I have a deep relationship..."

Lin Daiyu looked at her father, a hint of determination and resoluteness flashing in her eyes. She interrupted her father: "Father, I understand your deep affection for mother, but this is also for the future of our family. The current situation is unpredictable, and you need a son to stabilize the Lin family. I also need my brother's support..."

After hearing this, Lin Ruhai was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, Yu'er, since you insist so much, then I will take a concubine and give birth to a younger brother for you."

Lin Daiyu nodded slightly, indicating her understanding of her father's decision. She then added, "Father, don't worry. I have a secret medicine that can help you and your aunt conceive a child as soon as possible. This will give our Lin family new hope."

Lin Ruhai looked at his daughter in surprise. He hadn't expected her to be so well prepared. He couldn't help but sigh, "Yu'er, you've really grown up and learned to think about the family. But I also hope you won't overwork yourself."

Lin Daiyu smiled and shook her head. "Father, I'm not tired. I just want to contribute to the future of our Lin family. After all, I'm already nine years old, and in six years I'll have to participate in the selection. I don't want to become a prince's concubine. If that happens, I might as well enter the palace and become the emperor's concubine! At least I'll still be a concubine. If I give birth to a prince, maybe I'll have a chance to compete for that position!"

Lin Ruhai looked at his daughter's determined eyes, his heart filled with joy and pride. He knew that although Lin Daiyu was still young, she was already planning for her future. He believed that as long as their family worked together, they would be able to overcome difficulties and usher in a brighter future.

Lin Ruhai sat on the chair and after pondering for a long time, he finally asked, "Yu'er, have you really thought it through?" His voice was filled with hesitation and worry.

Lin Daiyu answered firmly: "Dad, I have thought about it!" Her eyes were full of determination and courage.

Lin Ruhai looked at his daughter with some emotion in his heart, but nodded and said, "Okay, let's do this. Yu'er, when dad comes back, I will take Wang Guanjia's daughter Hongxiu as my concubine. Remember to give dad a pill then. From now on, dad and your brother will be your greatest support!" His tone revealed his love and protection for his daughter.

Lin Daiyu nodded in agreement. She knew in her heart that her father did this for her. Although he was reluctant, he compromised for her sake. Moreover, Hongxiu had been by her father's side all these years, serving him wholeheartedly, so her father naturally understood her feelings. In this case, accepting Hongxiu as a concubine was a kind of fulfillment; at least her deep affection for her father would be reciprocated.

After they returned to the capital, the city's major aristocratic families sent gifts, and the Jia family also sent people to invite Lin Daiyu to stay at their house. However, these people were unceremoniously dismissed by the Lin family's housekeeper. Lin Ruhai was no longer the same person he used to be; he was no longer someone who could be easily manipulated.

After Lin Daiyu learned about this, she understood the Jia family's plan, but she didn't care. She knew that the Jia family's wishful thinking would soon be dashed. It turned out that Hong Yi Niang was pregnant, which was a happy event for the Lin family.

Lin Ruhai had spared no expense in hiring a retired maid to teach Lin Daiyu the secrets of the palace and the rules and etiquette. He also hired a teacher to teach her the Four Books and Five Classics. He didn't have her learn the arts of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting because she was already so accomplished in those areas that she didn't need any further instruction.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Daiyu is already fourteen years old. One day, as usual, she went to Jiafu Temple to pray for her father. The carriage traveled smoothly along the way, but halfway through, it encountered a shocking accident.

On the road ahead, a group of men in black were fiercely stabbing another group in elaborate attire. The bloody scene was horrifying, and the maidservant was a bit panicked. "Miss, should we take a detour?" Lin Daiyu frowned, then pondered for a moment and said, "Let's see what happens!" She was traveling today with only two maids and a coachman. Taking a detour would be long and unpredictable. Furthermore, if the men in black spotted her, even a detour would inevitably lead to trouble. Therefore, she decided to observe the situation for a while before making a decision. However, why not directly help? Lin Daiyu didn't want to reveal the secret of her and her maids' martial arts skills, lest they arouse Emperor Kangxi's suspicion if they entered the palace later. After all, the imperial palace was full of treacherous people, and the slightest mistake could lead to irretrievable disaster.

As Lin Daiyu hesitated, the group of people in gorgeous clothes were completely slaughtered, leaving only one man desperately running towards them. Lin Daiyu's heart sank, knowing that she could no longer sit idly by. So, she decisively ordered her maid to cover her face with a veil, and quickly took action to eliminate the assassins outside.

Kangxi felt a flash of light before his eyes, a gust of wind swept past, and then he heard a muffled groan and the sound of a heavy object falling behind him. Turning back, he saw that the once-aggressive assassins had fallen one after another, their blood flowing onto the ground, forming a dark red pool. Among these bodies stood three figures, their backs to Kangxi. Their faces were unclear, but judging by their figures, they all appeared to be women. Unbeknownst to Lin Daiyu and the other two, this man was the young Kangxi, who had left the palace for a private visit that day, but his whereabouts had been leaked and he was assassinated.

Kangxi was secretly surprised by the three women's extraordinary skills, able to eliminate so many assassins in an instant. He wanted to step forward to ask their identities, but the three women did not stop and quickly left the scene, leaving a mystery behind.

Kangxi looked at the direction they left, his heart filled with doubts and curiosity. He decided to find a safe place and wait for the guards to come looking for him...
