Shengjing Noble

In today's world, it is impossible for a woman to survive without a man, let alone become a general.

But if another woman said this, Fu Muyin would find it ridiculous, but when Rong Ying said it, it made people believe it.

"I think you might really be a natural born general."

"Really? Princess, do you really think so?"

"Ok!"

Rong Ying was deeply moved: "I have said this to many people, and they all scolded me for being wishful thinking. Only the princess believed in me and encouraged me!"

"In fact, I envy you because you know what you want to do. As for me, I have never known what I want since I was a child."

"Why not?"

"Because they always wanted to find a reliable and trustworthy husband for me, and told me that I could only live a happy and smooth life if I found the right lover, but my mother didn't have a husband."

"Or maybe she had it before but gave it up. If finding the right person is really a happy life, then why didn't my parents live happily ever after? Is it because my father wasn't good enough?"

"I heard from my cousin the Emperor that my father was second only to the emperor, powerful, and well-versed in both civil and military affairs. He also had excellent character and was devoted to my mother."

"But why can't they be together? So I have always been skeptical about finding a man to get married, but I also have some expectations in my heart."

"After all, I've never loved anyone, so I'm curious about what it feels like."

Rongying thought about it, and then said: "In fact, finding a good person to marry is also a goal. Everyone has their own ambitions in life. As long as you don't hurt others and are willing to work hard for it, you are great."

"You're right. Perhaps one day, women will be able to be self-sufficient and no longer need to rely on men to live. In this way, the world may be a better place."

……

Ten days later.

Fu Muyin and Rong Ying arrived at the first village and found nothing after searching.

As it was getting dark, they had no choice but to stay overnight at a villager's home.

At night, the two of them lay on a brick bed, unable to fall asleep.

Today, Fu Muyin also entered the village with great expectations.

The results obtained are not ideal.

She felt sad and disappointed, and was worried that she might not be able to find the next village.

Rong Ying seemed to notice her concerns and said hurriedly, "Don't be sad, Princess. There are still several places to search. We will definitely find them."

"What if I can't find it?"

"If we can't find it... then... let's just think of it as a trip."

Hearing her say this, Fu Muyin's mood suddenly brightened.

"You're right. If you can't find it, just think of it as a fun trip. Sometimes if you don't have hope, you won't be disappointed."

"Yes! It's great that you think so, Princess..."

Before Rong Ying could finish his words, Fu Muyin's stomach suddenly growled twice.

She held her stomach in embarrassment.

"My Lord, are you hungry?"

"Well... I only had a small bowl of porridge at night, and not much rice... I am indeed hungry."

"How about I get up and find you something to eat?"

"No, this family is poor, and the bowl of porridge was shared among us. It's late at night, so we don't want to disturb them."

"We can just buy it with money..."

Rongying felt his arms, but found that there was no cash left, only a few copper coins.

They had been planning to go to the next city's treasury to exchange some land, so they chose to stay overnight.

"This little bit of copper should be able to exchange for some steamed buns, right?"

"It's okay. I'll bear with it." Fu Muyin said and closed her eyes, trying hard to fall asleep so that she wouldn't be hungry anymore.

Rongying thought about it, then suddenly sat up and tried to get out of bed.

She quickly stopped him: "Where are you going? Don't disturb everyone."

"Don't worry, it won't happen. I'll be back soon."

"OK then."

Fu Muyin watched Rong Ying leave the room and waited for a long time but he didn't come back.

She was a little worried and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

So I just got up and paced back and forth in the room.

"Could it be that he is in some danger? It's the dead of night, and there might be some bad guys."

No matter how powerful Rongying is, she is just a woman. What if the opponent is several strong men?

No!

She has to go out and see!

Thinking of this, Fu Muyin quickly put on her outer robe and left the room. In the yard, the man of this family was drawing water from the well.

"Brother Zhao, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Zhao Heng is a farmer, simple and unpretentious. He doesn't mind seeing Fu Muyin's face full of birthmarks.

He smiled and answered honestly, "I will fill the jar with water so that my wife can go to the mountain to chop firewood tomorrow morning. She won't have to fetch water. Her waist has been in pain since she gave birth, so I will do as much as I can."

"You are so kind to your sister-in-law."

"What's good about it? She has to live a hard life with me. I'm wronging her."

Zhao Heng smiled suddenly, picked up the bucket and walked quickly towards the water tank.

After pouring the water in, he went back to the well to continue drawing water.

Just at this time, Rongying came back. She was covered in mud and looked miserable, but she was holding two wild rabbits in her hands.

"Where have you been? How did you get into this situation?"

Fu Muyin was extremely worried and rushed forward to check if she was injured.

But Rong Ying just smiled and handed the two rabbits to Zhao Heng next to him.

"I went to catch rabbits. It was damp in the mountains, and there was mud next to the rabbit holes. I had to dig holes, so it was inevitable that I would get dirty."

"You went up the mountain?" Zhao Heng asked in surprise.

"Yes."

"Aren't you afraid of encountering wolves when you go up the mountain so late at night?"

Rongying said, "Don't worry, I heard the wolf howling, so I only dared to stay at the foot of the mountain and didn't go inside."

"That won't work. If something goes wrong, how am I going to explain it to your mother?"

Fu Muyin was so angry that she hit her arm hard.

Rong Ying smiled dotingly and said quickly, "There are two rabbits, one male and one female. The female seems to be pregnant. You can eat the male first and raise the female."

"Really?" Zhao Heng was surprised and lowered his head to check. Sure enough, the female rabbit's belly was bulging.

"Brother Zhao, go and call sister-in-law and the children to get up. We are going to roast a rabbit for dinner."

"Hey, okay!"

A group of people built a fire in the yard, and then roasted a fat male rabbit on it. After a while, it was sizzling with oil and smelled very fragrant.

Brother Zhao and his family hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and they were deeply moved.

"If we hadn't taken you in, our family of three wouldn't have had this blessing."

"Yes, it's hard for you to run to the mountains to catch rabbits at night, but how do you know where the rabbits are nesting?"

The couple was very curious.

Rongying said: "When I was a child, I often played in the mountains. I was naughty at that time and always climbed trees to take bird eggs. I fell down once and almost died. My mother didn't allow me to climb trees anymore."

"Then I thought, since I can't take snakes from trees, I might as well take snakes from the ground. So I started looking for nests on the ground. I took out a snake several times, which was really scary."
