The day her husband welcomed the time-traveling girl into the house, she woke up

Xie Yu opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

After a long while, he asked Li Yunzhi dryly, "So you were nice to me in the past just because I had a system?"

Li Yunzhi ignored it.

Xie Yu then continued to ask, "Because I have a system, you've completely ignored your precious daughter, Li Shu. Are you trying to use my system to achieve a goal far more important than your daughter? Now that you know through me that Lin Qi not only has a system, but also the main system, you think I'm useless and want to distance yourself from me?"

Li Yunzhi still ignored it and just clenched his hands secretly.

What he wanted was indeed more important than Xiaoshu.

But that doesn't mean Xiaoshu is no longer important to him.

He will make it up to Xiaoshu in the future!

Then he heard Lin Qi snort and laugh, "You useless piece of shit, it turns out you're not completely brainless. But you can get out of here now. I still need to talk to General Li."

Xie Yu kept staring at Li Yunzhi as if he didn't hear anything.

When her eyes were sore from staring, and Li Yunzhi still didn't even look at her, she slowly got up from the ground and walked out slowly as if she had lost her soul.

When she reached the door, Lin Qi said again, "If you want to live longer, you'd better keep your mouth shut."

Then as soon as Lin Qi finished speaking, the door was opened by someone outside.

After she stepped out of the door, a palace maid outside whispered to her, "Miss Xie, please go to the side and wait for General Li for a moment. You entered the palace with General Li, and you must leave the palace with General Li."

The respectful tone gave her the illusion that she had just had a dream.

After the palace door closed again, Li Yunzhi just raised his hands to Lin Qi, and Lin Qi said, "General Li, what you have been seeking all these years is nothing more than the return of your wife, right? And General Li should have guessed that Xie Yu's system needs to steal something from your daughter in order to accomplish these incredible things, right?"

"Yes."

"But General Li, you may not know the specific reason. Let me explain it to you..."

Lin Qi walked to the side and sat down before saying, "As General Li knows, your wife's mission back then was to capture you and spend her life with you, but you betrayed her, causing her mission to fail and be eliminated by the system..."

When he said this, Lin Qi stopped talking and observed Li Yunzhi for a moment.

Seeing Li Yunzhi's fists clenched, regret and pain rising in his eyes, she secretly gritted her teeth, and when she spoke again, her voice uncontrollably became a little colder, "General Li, you don't know that you are not the first person your wife has conquered..."

"What do you mean, Your Majesty?" Li Yunzhi interrupted Lin Qi excitedly.

"That's exactly what it says. Although you weren't the first person she conquered, you were the last. She decided to stay in our world for you. If you hadn't betrayed her, she could have lived a happy and fulfilling life in our world."

"..."

Li Yunzhi's body swayed, and the regret in his heart became even stronger.

Lin Qi continued slowly, "Because she completed many tasks brilliantly, your wife has a huge amount of points. Before being wiped out by the system, she transferred all the points to your daughter. However, your daughter does not have the system, so those points are useless to her, but they are very useful to me.

But in order to gain points from your daughter, you must cause some damage to her, so I arranged for Xie Yu to go to the border as a chess piece to capture the person your daughter cares about the most, that is, General Li and you.

However, my plan is to get rid of Xie Yu after I get enough points from your daughter. As long as Xie Yu is gone, you who were conquered by Xie Yu will return to the state before being conquered. By then, you will definitely find ways to make up for it to your daughter. I can also lend you a hand as compensation, so that your wife can return to your side, which can barely be considered a happy ending.

But things were going very smoothly, but something unexpected happened to your daughter, which led to the current situation..."

"What's the variable?"

"I still haven't figured it out, so if General Li wants to achieve his goal through me, he needs to help me figure this out."

"If I can clarify that for you, Your Majesty, can you really let my wife come back?"

"Yes, because I recently brought a person who had been dead for many years back to life through the body of another."

"I wonder who it is?"

"Once the General has helped me figure out what happened to my daughter, I will tell him."

"..."

Li Yunzhi was silent for a moment, then bowed and said, "I hope Your Majesty will keep your promise."

Lin Qi hummed, and said, "This favorite concubine of mine is now in name only. I will have to rely on the general for his care in the future, so I dare not break my promise to him."

"Then I will take my leave now."

Li Yunzhi turned around and left after he finished speaking.

Just like when Xie Yu went out just now, when he arrived at the door, the person outside immediately opened it.

After he left, Yin Su walked out from behind the side hall, looked at Lin Qi and asked, "You lied to Li Yunzhi, didn't you? The points Lin Zhi gave Li Shu can't be completely useless to her, right?"

"Your Majesty is wise. Because Li Shu doesn't have a system, those points have become luck for Li Shu, which can protect Li Shu throughout her life."

"Do you really believe that Li Yunzhi can figure out what happened to Li Shu?"

“Not necessarily, but it’s worth a try.”

"..."

Yin Su didn't say anything else. He turned around and left the side hall through the back door, then left Shoukang Palace and went back to Fengyi Palace to coax people.

At this time, in the main hall, when Yin Ji looked at her again, Li Shu stood up decisively and said to Xu Daijun, "Mother, I feel a little unwell and want to leave the palace first."

Xu Daijun frowned and looked at her twice.

Her little face is red, she doesn't look uncomfortable at all!

Then he said, "Jin'er hasn't come back yet. Wait until Jin'er comes back and then..."

"He's so drunk, who knows where he might have fallen asleep. Mother, please send someone to look for him. I'll leave the palace first."

After saying that, Li Shu left without waiting for Xu Daijun to speak again.

Xu Daijun glared at her in dissatisfaction, but he really sent someone to look for her.

After Li Shu's carriage left the palace gate and passed a corner, Lin Yuan got into the carriage and reported, "Miss, Lin'an said Xie Yu had been staying in that side hall. Later, General Li led Concubine Qi into the side hall. Not long after, Xie Yu came out of the side hall first, followed by General Li. After General Li came out, the emperor left through the back door of the side hall, and Concubine Qi came out directly from the front door."

Li Shu frowned when she heard this.

The emperor left through the back door, which means that Li Yunzhi might not have known that the emperor was inside.

So after Xie Yu came out, Li Yunzhi and Qi Fei were alone.

The emperor was hiding there, most likely wanting to eavesdrop on the conversation between Li Yunzhi and Concubine Qi.

So what could Li Yunzhi say to Lin Qi that was worthy of the emperor specifically eavesdropping on?

It definitely can't be anything related to Lin Qi's biological mother...

But it can't be related to the system that Lin Qi might also have, right?

After a long while, Li Shu rubbed her temples and sighed softly, "My brain isn't working anymore. I can't figure it out..."

Lin Yuan hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Miss. Once we get more clues, we will definitely be able to figure it out."

Li Shu glanced at him and nodded slowly.

After that, Lin Yuan got off the carriage at the place closest to Peacock Terrace.

When he returned to Peacock Terrace, Lin'an was already waiting in his pharmacy.

"Boss, you said earlier that you wanted me to personally investigate someone. Who is it?"

"King Heng'an."
