But everything was beyond her expectations. She was the outsider. Cheng Yunjin's mother acted on impulse when she was young and insisted on marrying a poor scholar, but her family was unwilling.

Cheng Yunjin's mother ran away secretly and married her biological father, but she was not happy and died soon after. Her father married another wife, so she was not welcomed and even the servants bullied her.

When the Cheng family came, she knew she had an uncle, but her uncle held her very intimately and spoke gently. Her uncle couldn't bear to leave Cheng Yunjin alone, so he took her away. Cheng Yunjin was two years old at that time.

Later she changed her name to Cheng Yunjin, and like her elder sister, she was a lady of the Cheng family.

After traveling through time, she felt it was very boring, so she disguised herself as a man and wore men's clothes.

She got into a lot of trouble, but her elder sister always took care of it for her.

During the third hunt, when everyone was getting ready to go, Ning Shujun stared at Ning Xuan's figure. She didn't expect that Cheng Yunjin wanted to conquer him in order to make a bet with Ning Shujun.

Ning Xuan realized something and met Ning Shujun's gaze. "Royal sister, is there anything wrong?"

"I heard that Concubine Jin is very much loved by His Majesty, why wasn't she brought out today?" Realizing that she had said something wrong, she was stunned for a moment. Isn't this exposing that she has not been here recently? All those who came these days were Mu Qing.

When Ning Xuan mentioned this, he was very excited. "I want to thank my sister."

"I wish your majesty a triumphant return." Ning Xuan was very pleased with Ning Shujun's bow.

Ning Xuan climbed onto his horse, took the bow from the hand of someone beside him, grinned and said, "Royal sister, I will shoot a blind bear and give it to you later."

"I would like to thank Your Majesty first."

Just after the hunting team left, a group of noble ladies came over and presented a bunch of goodies like offering treasures.

"I accept it with reluctance!" Ning Shujun was not polite either. She would accept it no matter who gave it to her.

It was Ning Shujun who didn't expect this kind of drama.

An assassin was trying to kill His Majesty, but at the critical moment, a woman saved His Majesty.

Upon learning that Ning Xuan was only slightly injured and that the woman who saved His Majesty was Cheng Yunjin, there was no doubt that the two of them would fall in love with each other.

Ning Shujun fulfilled her duty as a subject and rushed to visit His Majesty, only to see Ning Xuan sitting by the bed, the imperial physician kneeling beside him, and the person bandaging His Majesty was Cheng Yunjin.

"Royal Sister"

"Your Majesty." She caught a glimpse of the smug man winking at her.

Ning Xuan instead wanted to introduce Cheng Yunjin to her, only to find out later that they had known each other for a long time, and then she learned that Cheng Yunjin almost took the imperial sister as his teacher.

"What a fate!" Ning Xuan immediately named Cheng Yunjin a talented person.

"Royal sister, what do you think?"

Ning Shujun's mouth twitched. The two men were flirting with each other unscrupulously, not caring about the fact that there was a group of people here, some kneeling and some standing.

"It's a happy event." She suppressed her discomfort and said something against her will.

Back in the palace, this talented person was amazing, with a straightforward personality, daring to say what others dared not say, and acting boldly. He instilled new things into Ning Xuan all day long, and copied down Sun Tzu's Art of War. Although it was just a few words, every sentence was classic.

Ning Xuan was like this because what he saw was woven by someone. As an emperor sitting in a high position, he could not see clearly who was loyal and who was treacherous, and who was calculating against His Majesty.

Every word touched Ning Xuan's heart, so much so that he stayed with Cheng Yunjin every day.

The story of their deep love was spread among the people, and the teahouse was crowded with people who came to listen to the gossip.

In a corner, Ning Shujun listened to the storyteller's nonsense and smiled from time to time.

"Why do you like being here?" A figure appeared, and a white brocade robe came into view. Unlike the past, the man was very gentle today, like a weak scholar.

Ning Shujun peeled two peanuts and threw them into her mouth. "It's a bit noisy here, let's go somewhere else."

The two came to the private room, which was quiet. Ning Shujun isolated the entire room to prevent anyone from eavesdropping on their conversation. There was a rumor in the capital that the left prime minister was controlling the government and was planning a rebellion.

There is another version that in order to consolidate her own position, Ning Shujun placed people around the emperor and threatened the wives of the housekeepers. In addition, she had previously committed suicide and pursued pleasure, which almost destroyed the foundation of the country, so she was impeached many times.

What's even more outrageous is that the princess and the left prime minister have long been in love with each other and intend to usurp the throne.

All these messed up statements came from the palace.

"There's been a lot of gossip lately, what do you think?"

"Princess, don't pay attention to rumors."

In fact, some of the rumors were correct. When they assisted Ning Xuan in becoming emperor, they were worried that this guy would be difficult to control, but they never thought that he would be a comfortable person.

"How's Liuhuo doing?" Ning Shujun turned the cup in her hand.

Seeing that she was worried, Mo Song responded: "The situation is not good. Liuhuo seems to be seeking peace, but in fact he is planting spies."

"Spy, then you also sent spies to stalk people." Ning Shujun didn't think it was a big deal. She had been thinking of doing something after the hunt was over.

The Hanzhou area was hit by heavy rains, and subsequent floods destroyed houses in the low-lying area.

I heard that the people sent there found that the dam that used to prevent river flooding had collapsed, which made things even worse.

"You should know"

Three months ago, Cheng Yunjin, a talented person, gave advice to the emperor and pointed out the mistakes of the left prime minister, and punished him to confine himself to thinking for more than a month. Now the Cheng family is a first-class official, and rewards are endless.

In fact, Mo Song really wanted to see what the emperor was capable of, but Cheng Cairen proposed to repair rivers and build reservoirs, and his argument was very logical.

Ning Shujun rolled her eyes at him and said, "I didn't pull you out to tell you to talk nonsense." After a pause, she asked, "What are you going to do? And the officials sent to manage the disaster have been there for more than a month, why haven't they issued any relief money?"

Mo Song said seriously: "Princess, you should know better than me that the continuous wars are not just the result of the raging fire." The implication was that the treasury was empty, not to mention that His Majesty had a female military advisor some time ago, and the words of all the civil and military officials in the court were like farts. The people in Hanzhou could only leave it to fate.

She had forgotten that Huayue had been at war for years, and now it had been less than a year since the end of the war. The war had cost the people a lot of money and labor, and not only did she not feel relieved, but the people of Huayue had also been implicated.

If it weren't for Ziying's news, she would not have known about it. But she didn't expect Mo Song to stay in the mansion and ignore the matter, and let Ning Xuan make trouble.

"Please ask the national treasury to allocate silver and supplies."

"Princess, are you hallucinating? Do you need me to repeat it again?"

"Just dial," Ning Shujun said.

Seeing that she was going to take care of this matter, Mo Song's lips curled up slightly and he bowed, "Yes, I'll do it right away."

Within half a month, the disaster-stricken people in Hanzhou received relief food and their houses were renovated.

What they shouted was indeed the emperor's great grace, and they were grateful in their hearts.

The road conditions for the excavated river channel have been determined and preparations are being stepped up. Everything is going smoothly.

After this incident, Ziying came back and knelt in front of Ning Shujun with a hoarse voice.

"You really deserve to die." Ning Shujun spoke after a long while. She was panicked when she received the news.

"Please punish me, Master"

Mu Qing appeared at this time and said: "Most of the responsibility for this matter lies with the master."

After all, a little demon who has practiced for several years did not practice properly, but plundered others' cultivation and used it for himself. Although Ziying had transformed, she had only practiced for a few years. She was eager for success and caused trouble.

After this incident, Ning Shujun asked Ziying to take Xuanwu Po to find a secluded place to practice.

Mu Qing said, "Master, do you know that it takes at least several decades or even hundreds of years to cultivate a demon?"

By that time, Ning Shujun had nothing left, but unexpectedly, Ning Shujun was still generous and waved her hand: "Who said I can't wait!"

"The master has never sought divination or practiced to awaken any meridians. He is a completely mortal."

"You mean I'm delusional"
