Miorich’s mansion had an outer courtyard and an inner courtyard. The high walls and tight security had isolated the mansion from the outside world. In the middle was the mansion, where the general took care of important business. Anyone who tried to enter by force would either be captured and imprisoned or killed. The transmission portal was located next to the mansion.
The portal was the only way the general and the emperor could communicate when the general was away at war. The portal was right next to Miorich’s residence in order to prevent any information from getting out. It was also the innermost part of the mansion, and it would be difficult for intruders to fight through every level of security check. This was done in most cities to prevent security breaches. Everyone knew the importance of securing information.
