    Fragments of the original owner's memories flooded in: the Great Yan Dynasty, the capital's prison. His name was Li Moxuan, courtesy name Ziyu, a low-ranking captain in the capital's patrol battalion, earning a monthly salary of three taels of silver. His father was a border general who died in battle ten years ago, and his mother died of grief afterward. "Orphaned, typical protagonist's fate..." He gave a bitter smile, but couldn't manage a laugh. Three days ago, a batch of royal tributes his father had escorted—the Nine-Tailed Pagoda—was stolen on its way to the capital. This pagoda was priceless. The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. As a relative of the person directly responsible, Li Moxuan was dismissed from his post and imprisoned, to be exiled to the harsh northern frontier in five days. The women of his family would be forced into brothels. "Two more days..." Li Moxuan felt a chill run down his spine. What kind of place was the northern frontier? Frozen wasteland, nine out of ten who went there never returned. This delicate modern man probably wouldn't last three months. "System? Grandpa?"
