During this period of time, Yun Shang changed her previous style of behavior and became extremely low-key. She seldom went out on weekdays. She devoted herself to learning martial arts from Liu Meir, as if she wanted to put all her energy into it.

Every day, when the dawn light just broke through the darkness, Yun Shang would get up quickly. She would first run towards the morning light, and then stand firmly in a horse stance, concentrating on practicing dodging techniques and basic skills.

This continued until the sun was high in the sky and became scorching hot, and then she stopped to rest.

In the afternoon or near dusk, Yun Chang would continue to practice with full energy.

Day after day, her physical condition improved significantly and she became much stronger.

Now, she could even barely avoid a few punches and kicks from the guards in the mansion, which made her very excited. She praised Liu Meir's teaching and kept saying that it was a good teaching that allowed her to make such rapid progress in a short period of time.

On the other hand, Ning Xue had been thinking hard for several days in order to get her father's support, but she still couldn't come up with a good idea.

Dad is not an ordinary person. It is impossible to convince him with just a few words.

Ning Xue's expression revealed a bit of frustration. She knew in her heart that if she wanted to gain her father's support, she would probably have to tell him about her dream that Huo Beixuan would become the prime minister in the future.

However, it is not easy to make a person believe that predictive dreams are real. There must be sufficiently convincing evidence.

In fact, at first, even Ning Xue herself didn't believe this dream.

But as time went on, the things in the dream happened one after another.

Ning Xue couldn't help but lower her head and think about what had happened recently. She clearly remembered that due to the severe drought this year, the autumn harvest was not ideal.

However, the local officials in Shangcheng secretly increased taxes for the sake of their own political achievements. This move caused complaints from local farmers. Several brave farmers disguised themselves as refugees and attempted to go to Beijing to file a complaint, but were stopped outside the capital.

What’s even more abominable is that they were brutally killed by gangsters hired by local officials.

Perhaps, she could use this incident as a starting point to make her father believe in her.

There is a reason why Ning Xue remembers this incident so clearly.

Soon, the situation became more serious and the local officials could no longer control it. When the news reached the capital, her father was sent to the upper city by the court to try the case.

At that time, she had just married into the palace, and was ignored by Shangguan Haoyu like air. She was full of anger, so she deliberately followed her father to Shangcheng to relax, hoping to give Shangguan Haoyu a warning.

Because of this, she understood the entire development process and final outcome of the incident very clearly.

In the evening, Ning Xue walked into the study room carrying a bowl of carefully prepared ginseng soup. She chatted with Ning's father all night long.

The next day, Ning's father decisively sent his confidant to Shangcheng to investigate the matter.

After a few days, the confidant came back and reported to Ning's father everything he saw and heard in the upper city.

As Father Ning listened, his expression became more and more solemn. He could not express his surprise in words and his brows furrowed tighter and tighter. All this was beyond his imagination and unbelievable.

"Go and call the young lady." Father Ning ordered.

Ning Xue quickly came to the study and called softly, "Dad."

At this moment in the study, Ning's father was pacing back and forth anxiously, his brows tightly knitted together.

"Tell me about it! What was the situation in the capital like in your dream?" Ning's father asked impatiently.

Ning Xue was not in a hurry. In her opinion, as long as her father was willing to believe, everything would be easy.

So she slowly and calmly recounted the scene in her dream.

The father and daughter chatted until late at night.

The next day, Ning's father was having a day off, so he changed into ordinary clothes and looked like an ordinary citizen.

Then he went out with his entourage.

However, as soon as Ning's father left, Ning Xue quietly followed him.

Father Ning came to Huo Beixuan's stall, carefully examined his calligraphy and paintings with great interest, and then asked, "Young man, can you write poetry?"

Huo Beixuan raised his eyes to look at the old man. Although he was dressed in plain clothes, he had a ruddy complexion, so he guessed that his family should be well off.

"Old man, I will."

"Then write one for me so I can give it to someone else."

"Old man, please give me a topic."

"My friend's son was originally an official in the court, but he was framed and dismissed from his post. He is very depressed. Please write a poem to encourage him!"

Father Ning stroked his mustache and sighed softly.

Huo Beixuan was suddenly shocked. This was so similar to him.

Huo Beixuan was deeply touched and without much thought, he picked up the pen and started writing.

After writing, he blew it dry and handed it to Ning's father.

Father Ning took it and looked at it. The handwriting was vigorous and powerful, and the writing was very neat. "Yes, your ambitions have not been fulfilled. You should rest and recuperate, and wait for a comeback in the future."

"As a man, you should be ambitious."

Ning's father put the poem away.

"Young man, if I give you a chance to reinstate your position, what do you think?"

Huo Beixuan looked at Father Ning with doubt, "If there is a chance, I would certainly be willing to do it."

Father Ning smiled and said, "Come to this place at midnight and I will show you the way."

Huo Beixuan was skeptical and wanted to ask more, but Ning's father left in a swagger.

Ning Xue, who had been secretly following Ning's father, wanted to come out and ask Huo Beixuan what they had talked about when she saw her father leaving.

But she was worried that Huo Beixuan had some grudge against her, and that if she intervened, it would backfire, so she had to give up.

Anyway, since her father came here to test Huo Beixuan, he must have an idea, so she just had to wait patiently.

Thinking of this, Ning Xue did not show up and left quietly.

At night, Huo Beixuan hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to go and find out what was going on.

What exactly is the opportunity that the old man was talking about?

Near the hour of Hai, we arrived at the place mentioned by the old man. It was a very ordinary private house.

Huo Beixuan thought, this house is so ordinary, what could be so special about it?

As he was thinking this, he heard footsteps and quickly hid.

A woman supported a slightly drunk man and walked into the house.

"Why did you drink so much? I can't even walk steadily. I'm so tired."

When Huo Beixuan heard this, he was surprised. Wasn't this voice Zilan?

On that day, Zi Lan accused him of harming her. The two of them fought a lawsuit for many days without any result. Zi Lan then resigned and left. However, he was concerned about Yun Shang and forgot about Zi Lan.

I never thought that Zilan now lives in this house and doesn't know who that man is.

After all, the biggest reason why he lost his job was because of this woman named Zilan.

After the door closed, Huo Beixuan walked out from the darkness with an unrecognizable expression.
