The Time Traveling Prince Consort Plans to Rule the World for Me

Mu Jin held a wild fruit in her hand and bit it happily. She looked at the valley in front of her and saw how it had changed little by little over the past year.

The bamboo buildings not far ahead were designed by Mu Jin. She built them according to the characteristics of the Dai ethnic group in Yunnan. They are moisture-proof, and people can usually raise small animals or put some work items under the bamboo buildings.

Mu Jin also had her own bamboo house, which was about a hundred meters away from the slaves' bamboo houses. She had a cold personality and rarely interacted with people in the valley unless it was necessary, except for some special festivals.

Apart from her daily food, clothing, housing and transportation, which needed to be delivered to her bamboo house on time by Lai Pozi, she preferred to be alone.

In front of the bamboo house there are large fields of rice, corn and mulberry. These crops all symbolize vitality and a scene of peace and prosperity.

Here, the criminal slaves in Prince Yun's Mansion lived an even better life than before. At least they had freedom and did not have to worry about being beaten or scolded for not serving their masters well.

If one day you ask them whether they are willing to leave here and return to Prince Yun's Palace, I think they will be extremely reluctant.

On weekdays, Mu Jin liked to go up the mountain alone to collect herbs and hunt, and occasionally she would follow the men into the mountains to hunt for a few days.

They walked almost all the mountains within a hundred miles around the valley.

The most dangerous time was when they encountered a tiger, which almost cost Mu Jin and several others their lives.

Fortunately, he often went hunting in the mountains and had developed some skills, as well as the kung fu that Mu Jin learned when he was a spy in the present world. In the end, with the help of everyone, he hunted the tiger.

It was on that day that the criminal slaves would no longer view her as a delicate princess who had never done any housework.

Although she stayed in bed for several days afterwards, these criminal slaves no longer dissuaded her from going up the mountain to hunt alone. After all, if Mu Jin had not been there that time, the others might not have been able to escape from the tiger's mouth.

"Princess, don't climb so high all the time. Be careful not to fall. Come quickly and see the color of the fabric I rendered for you."

Mrs. Lai stood under the tree where Mu Jin was lying and spoke to Mu Jin in a hoarse voice.

Mrs. Lai was talking about how she and other women had dyed two pieces of cloth with the juice of flowers in the valley, one pink and the other light yellow.

"Princess, I will use these cloths to make you a jacket and skirt, and embroider eight peonies on them. When you wear them, you will be as beautiful as a fairy!" said Mrs. Lai with a smile.

Mu Jin climbed down from the tree by the branches, looked at the cloth in Lai Pozi's hand, and raised his eyebrows.

He said to Mrs. Lai, "Please just make it according to the one I'm wearing!" Then he walked towards the bamboo building.

"I have made the dress you are wearing, but the princess will have to return to the palace one day, so I'd better make a few dresses to prepare. Otherwise, when she returns to the palace, everyone will see her dressed like this. How can it be a disgrace?"

When Lai Pozi said this, Mu Jin had already walked about ten meters away. Just when she looked disappointed, Mu Jin said nonchalantly: "Then do as you wish. By the way, I will go into the mountains to collect some herbs. You can leave dinner in my building!"

Mrs. Lai immediately responded with a happy face: "Oh! Okay, okay, I learned embroidery from the mansion's embroiderer for a short time. I guarantee that I can make it, and you will definitely be satisfied."

Mu Jin walked towards the bamboo building with his back to her and raised his hand to wave to show that he understood.

Mu Jin returned to the bamboo house, took food and a bamboo tube for water, took a bow and arrow, and walked into the mountains.

She is going to the mountains to collect enough herbs today. There are many herbs in the mountains that can be used in daily life, such as: Herba Hedyotis diffusae, Pollen Typhae, Panax notoginseng, which are all herbs for removing blood stasis and stopping bleeding.

These medicinal herbs are a daily necessity for her and the people in the valley who often work and hunt.

Bring a bow and arrow for your own safety, after all, there are many large wild animals in the mountains.

Mu Jin held the bow in his hand and casually pulled the grass under his feet, one reason was to alert the snake, and the other was to find medicinal herbs.

She collected a lot of herbs along the way and threw them into the basket on her back. The light in the woods gradually dimmed. Only then did she realize that she was so busy collecting herbs that she forgot the time to return.

As night fell, if we took the same route we came from, it would take more than an hour, and it was not safe at night as large wild animals were likely to roam around.

So she wanted to take a more rugged route back. Although it was difficult to walk on, it at least saved half the journey.

This path is not only difficult to walk on, but also full of wild animals. Therefore, people in the valley usually like to set hunting traps on that path.

Mu Jin had set traps on that path with them before, so he knew which parts of the path were dangerous and which were safe.

Mu Jin was walking carefully on the rugged mountain path. Suddenly, she smelled a subtle smell of blood in the air.

Less than 10 meters away from her was a trap they had set before. At a glance, she saw that half of the weeds used to cover the trap mouth were gone, proving that prey had fallen into it.

Mu Jin thought happily that she didn't expect to encounter unexpected gains by taking a shortcut. She quickly took off the backpack filled with herbs, and excitedly ran towards the trap with the ladder and bow and arrow.

Mu Jin came to the trap, pushed aside the remaining weeds, looked inside the hole, and found a black mass lying at the bottom of the hole.

Because the light was too dim, she wasn't sure what kind of prey was under the trap.

She found a long branch next to the trap, lay down beside the hole, and put the branch into the trap. When she lifted the weeds, she found that there was an injured man lying inside.

Although the man's clothes were black and the texture could not be seen, the style was definitely not that of the people in the valley.

Mu Jin's face immediately turned ugly, and he cursed in his heart: "What a damn bad luck! I have worked in vain today!" He wanted to leave immediately.

She had no intention of saving this person whose whereabouts were unknown and whose identity was unknown.

In the present world, she also likes to watch TV series in her free time, or in the scripts she receives, the heroines will either be exterminated or killed if they pick up a man and bring him home, so she believes that minding one's own business can save one's life.

Just as she got up and wanted to leave, a silver needle flew towards her from the bottom of the trap. Before Mu Jin could react, the silver needle had already pierced her arm.

Her arms suddenly felt a slight tingling sensation and went numb. Just as she was about to open her mouth to curse, the man in the trap slowly propped himself up with his hands and sat up against the wall of the trap.

"Excuse me, was this trap dug by you?" The man's hoarse voice came out from the trap. Although he sounded tired, it was like the sound of bells and drums at dawn and dusk, distant and beautiful.

Mu Jin slowly stood up at the entrance of the trap, pulled out the silver needle and threw it back at the man, and replied in a cold voice: "So what if it is? So what if it isn't?"

The man continued in a faint voice, "If that's the case, I was injured in the leg by your trap. You should apologize to me and then help me get up."

Mu Jin sneered: "What if it's not?"

"If not, it is a virtue to act bravely and save people from danger!"

Mu Jin rolled his eyes and said, "You are unlucky. You met someone who doesn't know what apology and virtue are."
