Song Zhi explained this to Xin Wanyun, and Xin Wanyun's eyes darkened. "So, you came here specifically to save me? You already knew about the Emperor's plan?!"

Song Zhi pondered for a moment, then looked up and met Xin Wanyun's eyes earnestly, "Yes, because I have placed spies around the emperor."

Well, this statement should be much more convincing than saying that she was reborn.

Upon hearing this, Xin Wanyun's tense body relaxed.

"I hope you're not in cahoots with that dog emperor."

Song Zhi immediately joined her in gritting her teeth, "Of course, that bastard emperor just demoted my father's position two days ago. I already have someone I like, and he still wants to force me to marry his son Mu Qinghan. What a tyrant!"

Xin Wanyun looked as if she had suddenly realized something. "No wonder you wanted to save me and go against him."

Song Zhi nodded. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend. We are on the same front."

Xin Wanyun was amused by her seriousness and asked in a rare good mood, "Although I have been away from the world for many years, any man in the capital who can name it will know which young man you like."

"His name is Mu Nanqi."

Xin Wanyun: “…”

Song Zhi emphasized, "I know you are speechless, but don't be speechless first. Although he is also the son of the dog emperor, the dog emperor doesn't like him and targets him everywhere. You should know that too."

A small figure suddenly flashed through Xin Wanyun's mind. She suddenly remembered that when she returned to the capital, she argued with the scholars in the court to plead for women. Those elderly court officials could not win the argument with her, so they could only beat their chests and stamp their feet, relying on their seniority and citing the Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues.

When she was sentenced by the emperor to be imprisoned in the Wanfo Temple, a poorly dressed and unfavored little prince stood on the cold palace road.

Although he was only seven or eight years old, the way he looked at her was as mature as an adult.

He stood there quietly, with no disdain, no contempt, no ridicule in his eyes, only endless pity.

He felt sorry for her situation.

Originally, the emperor could make better use of her to ensure peace of mind on the Tianqi border.

But just because she was a girl, she was buried in Wanfo Temple.

Thinking of this, Xin Wanyun couldn't help but sigh, "That Third Prince is not bad."

Eh?

Song Zhi, who had originally prepared a lot of compliments to Mu Nanqi, was stunned. Could it be that this guy's charm was so strong that it was not limited by age?

Knowing that Song Zhi was about to go astray, Xin Wanyun glared at her with a mixture of laughter and tears, "When I met him, he was only seven or eight years old."

The implication is that how could an older elder have such admiration for a seven or eight-year-old child?

Song Zhi also knew that his thoughts were a bit outrageous. He scratched his head embarrassedly and quickly changed the subject. "Now that General Xin has 'died' in the fire, are you willing to fight with me in the world?"

When it came to business, both of them looked serious.

Xin Wanyun asked, "Are you serious?"

Song Zhi, "Could it be that I don't look serious enough?"

"I know you can't completely trust me right now. That's okay. Just trust me halfway. Are you willing to take another gamble?"

"Let's gamble again."

"It's okay this time."

"Okay?"

Song Zhi's eyes were full of hope as he stared at the person in front of him.

"Just think of it as a tribute to the once sincere Xin Wanyun from her youth. She has put in so much effort, and it shouldn't just become a thing of the past without a sound."

Xin Wanyun's eyes were a little moist. No one had ever said this to her.

How could she ever want to let down the young Xin Wanyun?

Song Zhi saw her emotion and continued, "General Xin, you are not alone on this road. Besides me, there are thousands of women working silently. One day, the idea that men are superior to women will be abandoned. One day, women will be able to stand on equal footing with men and discuss who is superior."

Xin Wanyun is a person with great love in her heart. Few people can match her experience and ability. The ten years of training in Wanfo Temple have only made her more calm and thoughtful.

As a woman herself, she can better understand the difficulties faced by women.

Men always say that women are not presentable, but in reality, do they give women the opportunity to be presentable? Aren’t they always suppressing and prejudiced against women?

"You are so smart. Every word you say hits me right in the heart."

After a moment of silence, Xin Wanyun smiled and said, "It's really not easy for the Song family to have such a daughter."

Song Zhi smiled flatteringly, "You're too kind. I'm not as good as you."

Xin Wanyun shook her head lovingly, "If you don't mind, you can call me Aunt Xin from now on."

Song Zhi's heart moved. Did he agree to her agreement?

A burst of intense joy flashed in her eyes, and she immediately said respectfully, "Aunt, please accept the greetings of this junior, Song Zhi."

Xin Wanyun helped her stand up and said, "It seems like I'm agreeing to you, but in fact, it's also to fulfill my own wish."

If she was really willing to waste her time here, why would she reply to the letter and agree to let her come to see her?

"But I have one last question."

Xin Wanyun's expression was heavy. "Are you doing all this to support the Third Prince?"

This is the issue that concerns her most. After all, the lessons learned ten years ago are still vivid in her mind. She has long lost the courage and lonesomeness she had when she was young.

Song Zhi did not hide it. "Yes, but there are prerequisites. He must be a wise ruler who can support what we are doing."

If Mu Nanqi was not a wise ruler, she would not help him even if she had feelings for him.

Xin Wanyun thought for a moment and said, "At least he is more suitable to be the emperor than his father. If he is not able to..."

"If he can't, I'll do it myself."

Before Xin Wanyun could finish the rest of her words, Song Zhi interrupted her firmly.

Her eyes were firm and sincere, and when she said this, her whole body seemed to be radiating light, making it impossible to look away.

This is the bottom line she set for herself.

Hearing this, Xin Wanyun was stunned for a moment. She seemed to have never thought of this path before, but also seemed to have thought of it a long time ago, but never dared to say it as frankly as the woman in front of her.

After a long silence, the look in her eyes when she looked at Song Zhi changed.

If at the beginning she was willing to cooperate with her simply because she saved her life, then now, she really recognized Song Zhi.

"What do you need me to do?"

Song Zhi didn't act pretentiously and quickly said, "Aunt is a genius. I want you to secretly train a special force. Also, if possible, you can try to contact your old subordinates. They must be having a hard time right now."

In addition to targeting capable new recruits under his command, Meng Qi was even more cautious and suppressed those old subordinates who had military merits and followed Xin Wanyun, for fear that they would overshadow him.

Those old subordinates were not as popular as Meng Qi in front of the emperor. In addition, Meng Qi did not do anything to endanger their lives, so they could not find any evidence against him. As a result, they were angry and dared not speak out.

Xin Wanyun's eyes flickered as he thought of the soldiers who had fought alongside him in the past. He said with a look of nostalgia, "Okay."
