After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

For Zhong Ning, now is the time to hire people.

She needs a few martial arts experts around her to keep things under control.

She is alone and sometimes she is too busy to take care of everything.

Controlled by the tech bugs, these people only have their master in their hearts and eyes, and no longer have a complete and healthy personality.

Even if he wanted to leave, he would have to return to Zhong Ning because the tech bug was too dependent on its master.

So it doesn’t matter if they leave in the future, they will come back sooner or later anyway.

After Zhong Ning settled all this, he threw the eldest young master of the Cui family into the Nanfeng Pavilion and fed him a spring-rejuvenating pill.

He would like to devote himself to serving Nanfengguan's business anytime, anywhere and at any time!

When all this was done, it was already dawn.

Zhong Ning hurried and finally returned to the princess's mansion.

After changing clothes in the space, Zhong Ning lay back on the couch in the main room.

Seeing that Gu Mingzhe was still unconscious, she moved herself into his arms, smelled the faint scent of green bamboo on the man, and fell into a deep sleep.

Not long after, Gu Mingzhe woke up from his coma and saw the sleeping face as calm as a lotus in his arms.

He curled the corners of his lips slightly and pulled the person closer to his arms. His big hands wandered over Zhong Ning's back, his eyes so gentle that tears could drip from them.

I have to say, at this moment, he felt happy again!

He really wanted to get married soon, so that he could wake up every morning from now on, happily holding His Highness in his arms.

But then, he thought that Zhong Ning had so many lovers, so even if they got married, it was impossible for them to stay in his room alone.

The whole person regained consciousness in an instant.

His eyes were dim and his mind began to regain its rationality. He suddenly thought of the fighting ability displayed by His Highness in the cave yesterday. It was truly terrifyingly strong.

He also has martial arts skills, although they are not high, but if he encounters ordinary robbers, he can deal with them. At most, his skills are about the third or fourth level.

But His Highness's martial arts yesterday were at least around the eighth rank.

The most important thing is what Her Highness said to Fang Ping yesterday, and the clarinet in Fang Ping's hand when the three of them were kidnapped...

There was a loud bang, and a bloody hole appeared on the forehead of the man standing next to him... Gu Mingzhe still feels a lingering fear when he thinks about it.

What on earth is that thing that is so powerful?

Killing people from a distance is so easy!

Her Highness seems to have many secrets.

But these secrets cannot be told to him for the time being.

Perhaps, he had already known it, but he had never been willing to admit that His Highness might come from somewhere else.

My father once said that Lord Xiao Fang once spoke frankly in front of the emperor, saying that his soul had entered another world and obtained thousands of poems. He also said that there was a Ming Dynasty there, which was an extremely tough country.

My father always thought that what Lord Xiao Fang said was that they must be from the fairyland, because although Lord Xiao Fang behaved politely and properly, he did not have any reverence for imperial power in his bones.

The same goes for Your Highness!

Gu Mingzhe couldn't help but start to think differently. Compared to the weirdness of His Highness, Lord Xiao Fang actually showed more.

A grown man likes to sing songs, and every song he sings is a famous poem throughout the ages. He has some unknown hidden weapon on his body, which can take someone's life with one strike.

And what about His Highness?

Gu Mingzhe had already read the investigative intelligence about Zhong Ning. He was born in a mountain village and was abused by his adoptive parents since childhood. He was timid in nature. A few months ago, he suddenly went into the mountains and never returned.

She and Shen Yan came from the same place, so she took good care of Shen Yan.

Even Fang Ping came from the small county of Fengcheng.

But Shen Yan and Fang Ping were not familiar with each other, which showed that the prince who was familiar with Shen Yan was Xu Xiaocao in Kaoshan Village.

The prince who was familiar to Fang Ping was Zhong Ning, who came from another world together with Fang Ping.

He had always wondered why His Highness's original name was Xu Xiaocao and had to be changed to Zhong Ning?

But the intelligence shows that this name was changed for her by Shen Yan.

It can be seen that although His Highness entered the mountains on the surface, he was most likely hiding, and only Shen Yan knew this place.

Why did she hide? Maybe she was injured and was rescued by Shen Yan?

By that time, I'm afraid Xu Xiaocao would have become Zhong Ning.

She has always been grateful for Shen Yan's kindness. Even though she is not Xu Xiaocao, she has never thought of killing Shen Yan to prevent future troubles!

Therefore, His Highness protected Shen Yan in order to repay his kindness, and she said that protecting Fang Ping had become her mission because she and Fang Ping came from the same place.

The most important thing is... Her Highness said before that as long as Fang Ping is around, she feels like she hasn't been assimilated by this era...

Assimilated by this era?

Why is Your Highness afraid of being assimilated by this era?

Why is His Highness so angry about the Fangyuan incident?

Gu Mingzhe seemed to have uncovered a corner of the truth.

He looked at Zhong Ning's sleeping face and fell into thought again.

She would challenge the imperial power because of the tragic deaths of those children in the dry well, and would not hesitate to mobilize public opinion to bring down all those involved in the case.

Perhaps it was because, in her time, people had great respect for life and the rule of law.

Or perhaps, in her eyes, those children were no different from the officials who held power in the court.

She is afraid of being assimilated by this era. She is worried that even though she is in a high position, she will gradually become like other people in high positions, treating the people like pigs and dogs and the common people like ants.

Gu Mingzhe's eyes trembled slightly. Apart from these, he couldn't think of anything else that could scare her!

She is obviously a woman, and all she needs to do is take care of her husband and children!

But she insisted on going against the current!

Gu Mingzhe thought that recent intelligence showed that the eldest daughter of the Pingning Marquisate had established a women's technical school in the name of Princess Zhaohua.

The first batch of students to be admitted are only girls from poor families aged between ten and eighteen. They will be enrolled free of charge and provided with two meals.

Next to this girls' technical school, there is an enlightenment class that is said to be for girls aged six and above.

It is also completely free and two meals are provided.

These two items alone will definitely cost a lot of money.

And what His Highness has done is probably just to raise the status of women in this era.

Even though she was a princess, she only needed fine clothes and delicious food.

But her eyes can always see the hardships that women from the lower classes face in this era.

Why is his Highness always so special?

She clearly didn't have the gentleness and consideration that other women showed towards their future husbands. She even said frankly that she wanted to take a lover and would not remain faithful to one man.

He should obviously despise such a person the most.

But just like a bee encountering nectar, it is reluctant to leave.
