Origin System, I have a barren mountain

Lord Liu never expected that when Cheng Yunmo saw him, he didn't have a smile on his face, but instead looked worried.

"coming."

It would be a lie to say that Lord Liu's feelings were not complicated when he looked at Cheng Yunmo now.

When I first met Cheng Yunmo, I treated her like a junior and wanted to protect her if anything happened.

But I don't know when it started, everything changed.

Perhaps in the eyes of this younger generation, he seems to have done nothing but take advantage of her.

Cheng Yunmo rarely saw Lord Liu in such a disheveled state. Now, it wouldn't be accurate to call him disheveled, but he did seem to have a lot more worries on his face.

The servant stood guard outside, while Lord Liu led Cheng Yunmo to the living room.

The black tea laid out looked like it had been waiting for a long time.

After finishing a cup of black tea, Cheng Yunmo stared at the teacup, and for a moment the air seemed to freeze.

Ugh.

Cheng Yunmo sighed inwardly, then looked up at Lord Liu.

"Lord Liu never told me that your life was so difficult these days."

Lord Liu felt a tightness in his chest. He hadn't expected Cheng Yunmo to see through it so clearly. Since the junior had said it so bluntly, he had nothing left to hide.

"Yes, I am now placed near the residences of people with special abilities and those who write characters. There are almost no ordinary people around, so it seems very safe, and there are no zombies either."

Cheng Yunmo listened to what Lord Liu said and asked, "So, does this mean it's the emperor's idea, or was it something that was brought up by the officials and then the emperor agreed to?"

When Lord Liu heard the mention of the emperor, a hint of disappointment appeared in his eyes.

"After listening to the words of those ministers, the emperor felt that I was getting old and it was not appropriate for me to live near those common people, lest something happen."

He was safe, but he also heard a lot about the common people from the servant. These were things that should not be ignored, but no one took them seriously.

Cheng Yunmo had to admit one thing: Lord Liu was a very capable person. In times of peace and prosperity, such a capable minister could actually devise many things that would benefit the people.

Even though Cheng Yunmo now knows that someone like Lord Liu cannot stay in such a place, as it might ruin his potential, he has to admit that the emperor is not relying on ordinary people like them.

"What can I do for you?"

Cheng Yunmo asked.

In fact, asking her to go to the emperor now and bring Lord Liu back to the court would likely be something the emperor would be very unwilling to do, and in the end it would just be a waste of effort.

When Lord Liu learned that Cheng Yunmo had gone to the court, he didn't have time to think much about it. He only thought that Cheng Yunmo should take him with her to the court. However, he did not expect that Cheng Yunmo's current situation was not suitable to take him with her. Otherwise, her hard-won position in the court would be ruined.

He was too impatient and forgot.

"It's nothing, I just wanted you to come over for a cup of tea."

Lord Liu said dejectedly.

Cheng Yunmo felt a pang of pity for Lord Liu as he looked now.

Even if there were some past misunderstandings, Lord Liu really mentored her and taught her many things. It's really not good to leave such a capable minister here.

"If you want to leave such a safe place, you should think carefully about whether you really want to do it."
