The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

Li Liuyun glanced at Chu Lingtian: "If it weren't for your plane crash photos and the edict of succession, I wouldn't have stepped in to help you. You forgot? I told you before that we went into the palace, and we even left a letter there! It was through your new policies that we guessed you might be a time traveler."

However, on the other hand, it's all thanks to you transmigrating into this emperor's body. Otherwise, if we wanted to resolve this crisis between our two countries, we would probably have had to go to war! A war would have resulted in countless deaths and widespread devastation! Perhaps this is the meaning behind Heaven sending you here to take his place—to save the people of the southern border! A great responsibility bestowed upon you by Heaven!

Chu Lingtian laughed after hearing Li Liuyun's words: "Now that you mention it, my accidental transmigration has turned me into a savior of the suffering! Suddenly, I don't feel so bad anymore! I just wonder if I actually died in the modern world? And if I'll ever have a chance to go back?"

Nangong Li sighed and patted Chu Lingtian on the shoulder: "Since you're here, make the best of it. I was in a vegetative state in the modern world, but it was no different from being dead! Maybe one day God will let you travel back in time, who knows!"

Chu Lingtian nodded: "That makes sense! Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. Things will work themselves out. Even in ancient times, I can still make a name for myself!"

Li Liuyun glanced at Zuo Lu, who was standing there: "What are you going to do with this person?"

Chu Lingtian sighed: "To be honest, I haven't figured out how to settle him yet. Before I met you all, Zuo Lu was the only person who stayed by my side when I came here. He took care of me wholeheartedly and was loyal to me. He was also the only person I could confide in!"

But I need to fake my death to escape, and he's not suitable to stay by my side. Perhaps I should leave him a will allowing him to retire from the palace, and also leave him some gold and silver to ensure his lifelong peace!

Nangong Li nodded: "You did the right thing. It's really not appropriate to mention our identities as transmigrators to anyone, including our current parents and family. After all, we replaced their original relatives and took over their bodies! Not everyone can accept that!"

Li Liuyun nodded: "It's getting late, we should leave the palace now. Make good preparations for our retreat today! Prepare any necessary substitutes as soon as possible! We'll come to pick you up when it's time to leave the palace!"

"Alright, it's a deal then. I'll be waiting for you to rescue me from this golden cage," Chu Lingtian said with a smile.

Nangong Li glanced at Li Liuyun, a smile playing on his lips: "Don't worry, we're still waiting for you to be our beasts of burden!"

Chu Lingtian: "Nangong Li, you have a really sharp tongue. Did you eat poison for dinner? You're not cute at all!"

Nangong Li: "I actually think you're a pretty good old man. As the old saying goes, 'An old man in the family is a treasure.' My Yun'er picked up an old thing like you and turned him into a money tree!"

Upon hearing Nangong Li's words, Chu Lingtian flicked his sleeves and said, "Li Liuyun, why don't you consider changing your fiancé?"

Li Liuyun, holding Nangong Li's hand, said with a grin, "No way, I like vixens! They're good-looking, they have great figures, and I even have an appetite when I'm eating in front of them!"

Chu Lingtian was so angry with the two of them that he said, "Get out of here right now, or I'll have the dogs unleashed! As the saying goes, those who flaunt their love die young. They have no respect for elders or children, and they're showering this lonely old man with their lovey-dovey displays! They're utterly heartless!"

Li Liuyun took Nangong Li's hand and waved to Chu Lingtian: "Goodbye, bye-bye!"

"Get out of here!" Chu Lingtian roared.

Amidst Chu Lingtian's roar, Nangong Li and Li Liuyun left the Imperial Study, disappearing into the darkness in a few flashes and entering a spatial dimension where Chu Lingtian could not see them.

Back at the Prime Minister's residence, Li Liuyun thought for a moment and said, "Let's go check on the medicine man first. Also, you said the Prime Minister's residence will be raided anyway, so should I go and ransack it again? Consider it my reward for helping Chu Huainan!"

Nangong Li nodded: "It's possible, but not today. Think about it, we just entered the manor tonight, and then it was burglarized. Even if they don't suspect us, it will affect tomorrow's plans. Anyway, you have your spatial ability, so you can come back anytime. As long as we can loot the Prime Minister's manor before Chu Huainan raids it, that's fine!"

“You’re right! We can go to the dungeon later. It’s not like Lin Miao is going back to the manor today. Will that old lecher torment her? She’s quite pitiful, having such a scumbag father! She’s not even as good as the top courtesan in a brothel! At least she can earn money and choose what kind of customers she wants!”

After Li Liuyun finished speaking, he sighed, genuinely feeling sorry for Lin Miao.

Lin Miao returned to her room, finished washing up, and was taking off her earrings in front of the bronze mirror!

Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind and wrapped around Lin Miao's waist: "You've finally decided to come back. Is that nunnery so great? Why did you leave your teacher behind for so many days?"

Lin Miao placed the earrings in her hand into the dressing box and said with a smile, "Master, you have misunderstood. Every year at this time, Miao'er goes to the temple to pray for the Queen Mother, hoping that she can ascend to the Pure Land soon!"

When my father sent the message, I had already planned to return home, but unfortunately I caught a cold and had a high fever for two days. Luckily, a monk at the nunnery helped me a little, and I rushed home this morning. Unfortunately, the carriage overturned on the way back. Look, Miao'er still has abrasions on her forehead!

After Lin Miao finished speaking, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing her scraped arms and the wound on her forehead.

Chen Ting frowned when he saw the abrasions and bloodstains on Lin Miao's arm and the broken skin on her forehead.

Then he scooped Lin Miao up in his arms and placed her on the bed: "Take off your clothes!"

Hearing Chen Ting's unquestionable tone, Lingmiao stopped resisting. She sat up on the bed and began to unbutton her inner garments, saying, "Master, I'm injured today, I hope you won't mind..."

After Lin Miao finished undressing, she was about to pull the blanket over herself when Chen Ting grabbed it, saying, "Is there any part of your body that I haven't seen? Do we need to hide anything between us?"

Hearing Chen Ting's words, Lin Miao simply stopped resisting: "Master is right!"

Chen Ting looked Lin Miao up and down, but made no further move, which surprised Lin Miao. Usually, he would have been eager to torture her by now, so why today? Was he disgusted by her injuries?

Just as Lin Miao was wondering if she could escape this ordeal, Chen Ting suddenly said to her, "Turn around and lie face down on the bed!"

Upon hearing Chen Ting's words, Li Miao obediently turned around, biting her lower lip and gripping the brocade quilt beneath her tightly...

Chen Ting, however, pulled a porcelain bottle from his pocket.
