Prince Cheng strode toward the house. The closer he got, the clearer his vision became. From a distance, the house looked small and inconspicuous, but once inside, he realized it was a large mansion with six courtyards in the shape of a traditional courtyard house.
The mansion was surrounded by numerous guards, so well protected that not even a fly could get in, as if it contained some kind of gold and silver mountain.
Prince Cheng hesitated outside the gate of the mansion for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea before finally deciding to go in. Just as he raised his hand to knock, the door was pushed open from the inside, and a man in black wearing a silver ghost mask appeared in front of him.
The other person said in a hoarse voice, "Miss Chiyo has been waiting for you inside for a long time. Please go in, Young Master Yokoyama."
Prince Cheng frowned almost imperceptibly, but said nothing. He simply nodded vigorously and followed the masked man into the house. Soon they arrived at the main hall.
Sitting in the main seat of the main hall was a beautiful young woman dressed casually. She appeared to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, with almond-shaped eyes and a slightly heroic appearance. She wore no jewelry, and her long hair was casually tied into a high ponytail with a cloth. She was dressed in a light blue women's outfit.
This kind of attire is neither in line with the aesthetics of the Jin Dynasty nor with the aesthetics of the Japanese. Prince Cheng often couldn't understand why she had become so strange. He had many doubts in his heart, but he dared not ask them directly.
Ever since his sister snatched her life from the jaws of death four years ago, she has become strange and unpredictable, but more calm, ruthless and cruel than before.
Her kung fu skills improved rapidly. Before her imprisonment, her kung fu was only at an above-average level in Japan. But after experiencing life and death, her kung fu quickly rose to the top level. Within a month, she challenged all the top warriors in Japan and won every challenge completely.
Of course, she was bound to get hurt, but she was like a piece of wood without feeling. No matter how deep the wound was or how much blood she lost, she never frowned.
What's most surprising is that she suddenly has the skill of changing faces. No one knows where she learned it, but she definitely does, because he has tried it himself.
Prince Cheng's feelings were complicated, but his face remained expressionless; even when he raised his hand to touch his face, he was expressionless.
"What, you don't like this face?" Yokoyama Chiyo raised an eyebrow and looked over.
“It doesn’t matter, I’ve never cared about looks,” Yokoyama Ichiro replied stiffly.
Chiyo Yokoyama chuckled briefly and said casually, "Appearance is also very important. If you don't like it, I can change it back for you, but not now. We'll have to wait until things are done."
Yokoyama Ichiro didn't want to continue discussing this issue with her, and started talking about what happened today. "That guy was caught. He was supposed to be sent here to you immediately, but something unexpected happened. The imperial court sent people, and there was too much time. I only had time to lock him in the secret room of my room."
"The imperial court suddenly sent troops here, and your men didn't even get a heads-up. They only found out when the troops came to their doorstep?" Yokoyama Chiyo sneered, her dissatisfaction and contempt undisguised.
Yokoyama Ichiro said with a grim expression, "The other side only brought 20,000 men and said they were coming out to suppress bandits. Who would have thought they would actually come all the way to Anyang Prefecture? And that guy was rescued by his confidant. Fortunately, he was caught in time, otherwise the matter would have been exposed."
"Where is that trusted confidant?" Yokoyama Chiyo's handsome face was filled with intense killing intent.
“Dead.” Yokoyama Ichiro replied coldly.
"Don't stay here too long. I heard that the eldest princess of the Great Jin Dynasty is a very lucky person. You have to be careful and don't let anything slip. There can't be any mistakes here. Just wait a little longer and we'll be able to handle it. You have to fool them and get them to leave as soon as possible. Don't let them notice anything."
“The fact that they’ve appeared in Anyang Prefecture means they’ve already noticed something amiss. You’d better hurry up. If things continue like this, there’ll be no progress and we won’t get anything done,” Yokoyama Ichiro said curtly.
"Shut up! What right do you have to criticize me? If it weren't for me, would you, your mother, and Yingzi be alive today? And isn't it your stupid actions that aroused suspicion? I told you to recruit men, but you secretly sent people to massacre the fishing village, burning, killing, looting, and stealing women. A bunch of brainless idiots who only drag us down."
Yokoyama Chiyo was so angry she almost wanted to chop this bastard to pieces with her sword. If he weren't still of use to her, she would have killed him immediately, even if he was the original owner's own brother.
That's right, she traveled from the modern world. Originally, she was a plastic surgeon in China and the daughter of a wealthy family. Although she was far from being a member of a super-rich family, she had lived a carefree and happy life since childhood.
Unfortunately, when she grew up, she fell in love with a man she shouldn't have loved. That man was a rich second-generation heir with a wealthy family background and was also handsome. She dated him for three years, and she thought that he loved her as much as she loved him.
Who knew that the scumbag was just playing around with her? He loved someone else and wanted to dump her to marry another woman. He was dreaming! Did he think she was easy to bully? In her extreme case, she dragged the scumbag down with her and they both died.
That day, she coaxed the scumbag out of his car and drove it straight off a cliff. Both of them died instantly. But fate was kind to her; she died in the modern world, but was given a second chance to live. She time-traveled.
Unfortunately, she transmigrated to the Eastern Kingdom. Although she was considered a princess in the Eastern Kingdom, her mother failed in the palace intrigue and was almost killed by the other women of the Eastern King.
When she transmigrated, she was imprisoned in a dungeon. The original owner of this body was seriously injured and on the verge of death; in fact, she had been executed, which is why she had the opportunity to transmigrate.
After she transmigrated, perhaps due to the effects of the transmigration halo, most of her injuries healed quickly. Moreover, she retained the original owner's memories and martial arts skills, and her skills even became several times stronger with the blessing of the transmigration halo.
So in the end, she fought her way out of the dungeon with her own strength, bringing the original owner's mother, brother, and sister out of the dungeon and carving out a way to survive.
Nevertheless, the King of the East had long since grown tired of the mother and her four children. No matter how skilled she was, it was of no use. However, considering that she, Yokoyama Ichiro, and Yokoyama Eiko were all his blood relatives, the King of the East did not kill them all. He simply drove them out of the East and left them to fend for themselves.
Yokoyama Chiyo, known as Yoko Sensen in modern times, is a Chinese, not a Japanese. Although she doesn't have much patriotism, she knows even less about other countries. When she has nowhere to go, her first instinct is to find ancient China.
After a year and a half, the mother and her three children finally arrived at the Great Jin Dynasty. This was the place that Yokoyama Chiyo found by sailing eastward with the help of her intuition.
At first, the family lived on a small, deserted island, making a living by fishing. Only after they gradually adapted to life at sea did they come to a fishing village on the coast of Anyang Prefecture.
She spent a month familiarizing herself with the dynasty before realizing she had transmigrated to a fictional era, a dynasty that didn't exist in history.
