Chapter 1: Traveling through the House
"Miss Third! Wake up!" The maid's crying voice was heard.
Qin Xiangnuan felt that the surroundings were very noisy. She frowned and opened her eyes, and saw the maid crying with tears and snot all over her face.
She looked down at her slender wrist and her eyes suddenly widened. How could a super female agent of the 22nd century become as skinny as a chicken!
Memories that did not belong to her entered her mind at this moment——
She traveled through time!
In the 26th year of the Changlong reign, the imperial court experienced a dramatic change. Overnight, the general's family was reduced from a patriotic hero to a traitor. Their property was to be confiscated, and everyone in the family was to be exiled to the bitter cold of the border.
The original owner was the third young lady who was pampered by everyone in the general's mansion. Upon hearing the tragic news, her eyes rolled back and she was so angry that she died!
She was killed in an explosion while on a mission and just happened to come through.
Qin Xiangnuan took a deep breath, thinking that she couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
"Miss Third! Are you awake?" Yingge rubbed her eyes. Seeing the woman before her, she hurried over to support her. "Madam told you to sneak out through the back door. There's a coachman waiting for you at the city gate. With the jade token, you can escape and stay in the capital. I'm sure the Seventh Prince will take good care of you for the sake of our engagement."
The Seventh Prince? Qin Xiangnuan couldn't help but sneer when she heard Yingge's expectant words.
Why was the General's Mansion considered a traitor by the Emperor? It was all thanks to the Seventh Prince's letters from the General's Mansion, which revealed many of the Mansion's secrets.
The original owner, a silly girl, was so infatuated that she was deceived by the beautiful dream woven by the Seventh Prince, thinking that the Seventh Prince really cared about her.
Little did she know that the Seventh Prince had used the excuse of visiting her to slip the letters accusing the General's Mansion of treason and collaborating with the enemy into the General's Mansion.
She would beat up any vicious and despicable man she saw, and make him inhumane for the rest of his life!
Qin Xiangnuan turned her wrists and stretched the muscles of her shoulders and neck, and her eyes finally fell on the ancient jade bracelet on her wrist.
This jade bracelet is of excellent quality, and you can vaguely see a hint of red wandering in it.
Great! Her space has also come along.
Qin Xiangnuan was delighted and told Yingge, who was guarding her, "Yingge, go make me a pot of hot tea. If our house is really raided, I won't be able to drink it."
"ah?"
"Go quickly." Qin Xiangnuan was firm in her attitude. Although Yingge didn't understand why, she still went.
After sending Yingge away, Qin Xiangnuan immediately closed the door, closed her eyes, and entered the space in an instant.
Before my eyes lay a space comparable to a city, complete with shopping malls, fields, office buildings, and hospitals. The supermarket offered a variety of snacks and drinks, the fields were stocked with chickens and ducks, the pond held a few plump, tender, and delicious carp, and the parking lot was lined with neatly arranged sports cars and commercial vehicles.
Qin Xiangnuan raised the corners of her lips. Space is a project she organized and researched. It can be constructed at will according to the strength of people's thoughts.
As the strongest female agent, Qin Xiangnuan has the largest space.
All of this was hidden in the bracelet, but unexpectedly, it also came.
Great! Everything is ready.
She would never submit to the arrangements of fate. Since she had traveled through time and space to become the third daughter of the general's mansion, from today on, she would live in place of the third daughter and carve out her own world in these troubled times!
By the way, please help her protect the entire family in the general's mansion.
Qin Xiangnuan made up her mind and prepared to go to the main courtyard to get the warehouse key.
Confiscating property is no small matter. Living conditions in the cold and harsh border areas are difficult, and the generals, young and old, are used to a life of luxury.
There are still five or six hours before the palace sends people to confiscate the items. She has the space in her hands and has emptied the warehouse!
According to the original owner's memory, there were countless gold, silver, treasures, antiques, calligraphy and paintings in the warehouse of the general's mansion.
This time, the emperor allowed the general's mansion to be framed by traitors. Firstly, it was because the original owner's father, General Qin, was so powerful that he threatened the emperor. Secondly, it was because disasters had occurred for years and the treasury was empty. He urgently needed a large sum of silver to fill the treasury and stabilize people's hearts.
I'm afraid that in the minds of the emperor and his people, the General's Mansion is just a fat sheep they have chosen.
Qin Xiangnuan sneered in her heart and was about to go out when she bumped into Yingge who was rushing over.
Yingge looked flustered, her voice trembling as she said, "Miss Third, this is bad! Madam has fainted."
Qin Xiangnuan frowned and said, "How can you be so flustered? Even if you are facing confiscation or exile, as a member of the General's Mansion, you should maintain your composure and not let others look down on you. Do you understand?"
"Yes." Yingge blinked and looked at the woman in front of her. She always felt that she was a little different from before.
Qin Xiangnuan followed her to the main courtyard and saw the woman lying on the chaise longue - Liu, the biological mother of the original owner and the general's only legitimate wife. They had been childhood sweethearts and had lived a loving life after their marriage. No other concubines had ever entered the house.
Now that the general has been punished, Liu, who was cared for by the general, naturally cannot support the entire mansion, so it is understandable that she became ill due to anger.
"Nuannuan? Why are you still here?"
Liu weakly reached out her hand and stroked Qin Xiangnuan's cheek, tears as big as beans rolled down her eyes, "It's my father and mother who didn't do well, and you have suffered such injustice. It's just that the Seventh Prince..."
When Liu reached this point, she seemed to be hesitant to speak.
How could Liu, who had been observing people's words and expressions for many years, not see that the Seventh Prince was insincere and not a good man?
But Qin Xiangnuan was determined to marry the Seventh Prince, and as his parents, they could only indulge her. They thought that with the power of the General's Mansion, their daughter would only suffer some grievances after marrying him, but they did not expect to be charged with the crime of confiscation of property.
Qin Xiangnuan noticed the bitterness on Liu's lips, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes. She held Liu's hand and said, "Mother, don't worry. I don't have any feelings for the Seventh Prince now. I only want to take you and your family to reunite with father safely."
"If anything happens to my parents, I will never live in disgrace. As long as our family works together and unites as one, even if it's on the border, the General's Mansion will definitely be able to make a comeback."
After Qin Xiangnuan finished speaking, she turned to the nanny beside Liu, "Please take care of my mother. I'll go to the mansion to sort out my things and will be back soon."
Time waits for no one. It seems that the Seventh Prince’s men are already on the way.
He wants to confiscate the property? Don't even think about taking a single vegetable leaf from the general's mansion!
Qin Xiangnuan gritted her teeth and hurried to the warehouse in the backyard. She took out the key from her waist and opened the door. Even though she was mentally prepared, she was still shocked, "Wow..."
