Opening the Mu Residence Space

Mu Ge looked away. She could not be bothered to ask.

Luo Du was the capital of the Kingdom of Qin, and was modelled to have a city within a city.

There was the outer city, the inner city and the imperial city.

Simply put, the civilians lived in the outer city, where all the businesses were. The officials lived in the inner city. The imperial city was, of course, where the royalty lived.

The palace was within the imperial city. It was where the Emperor lived.

Even though the Mu family had been bestowed the title of Duke Master Yong Ning, they were not royalty. Therefore, they could only live in the inner city. But the Mu Residence was rather close to the imperial city, and it took up a large area that occupied the best stretch of the inner city. In Mu Qingge's words, she had not finished exploring the Mu Residence.

Of course, Mu Ge understood it as Mu Qingge's ambitions resting on spreading his 'good name' outside of the residence, and not exploring it.

In any case, the Mu Residence was huge!

"Imperial Construction: Residence of Master Yong Ning" Was inscribed on a stone before the steps. Mu Ge looked up at the somber and grand door of the residence.

There were tall, red pillars that propped everything up, and the doors were embellished with beast-shaped ring handles. There were also side doors next to the main doors. Above the seven steps of stairs were statues of various beasts that added to the grandeur of the mansion.

From the closed door, Mu Ge seemed to feel the beating of the drums and the sound of the horn. She felt adrenaline coursing through her body. She was once a soldier, and the Mu family was a family of soldiers. She seemed to have found something in common between herself and the Mu Family.

There were three plaques hanging above the doors.

The last piece was written in red with gold paint. It was the last words Mu Ge had uttered — imperial construction.

Imperial construction, built by imperial decree. This was an honour that countless poeple yearned for but never received.

Gifted by the imperial family. That represented the favourable position of the Mu family in Luo Du.

The second board had a black base and red words. On it was inscribed "Residence of Country Protector Jinwu General " The words were sharp, reflecting the dangers of the battlefield.

Compared to the two other pieces, the last was rather understated. It was just a signboard with "Mu Residence" engraved on it.

"Go on in. We've just been away for a few days, but you don't recognize your home?" Mu Xiong urged as he patted Mu Ge's shoulder when he saw that she did not move.

…

Chi Yun Court.

The most scenic and tranquil place in the Mu residence. This was the private residence of Mu Qingge, the young master of the Mu Residence.

The Mu Residence was not a home to many, and they were all soldiers. Therefore, they did not draw strict lines between the inner and outer courts. Other than the few courts that the few masters of the Mu family resided in, the rest were all sealed all the year round.

But Mu Qingge was a man to outsiders, so her residence was far from the women's quarters. If she did not make the effort to look for them, it would be difficult for her to meet any of the women of the Mu Residence.

In addition, Mu Qingge was rather sensitive about her identity. That, coupled with her personality, resulted in the minimal number servants in her quarters. There were only two maids that served her in her daily life. You He, who was gentle and quiet, and Hua Yue, who was lively and cute.

The two girls were around the same age as Mu Qingge and they served her well, but they never spent the night in her quarters. Of course, this was at Mu Qingge's request.

This made things a lot easier for Mu Ge.

Aside from the two, Mu Qingge had a study aide. But as a rich man's son, she was not interested in poetry. She had sent the servant to study at the school in her stead way back.

You He and Hua Yue knew Mu Qingge well, but Mu Ge was not familiar with them.

She quickly sent them away under the pretext of resting and that she did not need distractions. In reality, she crossed her legs above her bed and began to meditate.

In her previous life, apart from her aggressive fighting techniques, she relied on her special power of having two systems. Cultivating her special powers was done through meditation.

After settling down, she finally had time to see what was left in the space.

The man-made explosion not only reduced her to ashes, but also the person who set her up. The person probably never expected her to go as far as to take that person with her.

Until now, Mu Ge could see the person's stunned and panicked eyes whenever she closed her eyes.

During the explosion, Mu Ge felt that her space was affected, or perhaps it had something to do with her mental state.

After she was reborn, she found that her thunder powers were still present, as was her space. Therefore, she still had hope.

She rejected that person's suggestion that day not only because of her pride, but because of her space. She clearly remembered what she was tasked to steal in her last mission and where she had put the treasure that all the nations were after.

Clack!

A click echoed in Mu Ge's mind.

The familiar sensation sparked joy in her. "It's open!"
