Origin System, I have a barren mountain

When Liang Yu returned to the palace, he saw the Empress Dowager in a fit of rage.

He looked at his own mother, and all he saw in that glance was boundless resentment.

Liang Yu had wondered why, even though his mother and father loved each other so much and he was their biological child, they ended up like this.

My father and mother dislike me; they've disliked me since I was little.

In my own memories, I only have memories of disliking myself.

Not only that, but for some reason, every time his father and mother saw him, they were sick. It was as if their health would suddenly improve if they didn't see him.

I don't know why, even though he doesn't like me, he still gave me the throne.

There were other concubines in the palace who had sons, but the Emperor did not choose them; instead, he chose himself.

Liang Yu had wanted to ask his father and mother countless times why this was happening.

However, there was no chance at all. Liang Yu even thought about the national advisor he met on the day he turned nineteen. The young national advisor seemed to be about the same age as him. He didn't know why, but there should have been one national advisor in the dynasty, but suddenly there were two.

The young imperial advisor died right before his eyes, under the watchful gaze. He didn't know what the imperial advisor wanted to say to him.

Liang Yu came to his senses and, for some reason, suddenly thought of the Imperial Advisor from many years ago, and felt an uncontrollable pain in his heart.

As for Cheng Yunmo, Lord Liu insisted on bringing her to the mansion. It was unclear what he wanted to get, but after searching the study for a long time, they finally found an inconspicuous little box.

"Lord Cheng, look."

Cheng Yunmo glanced at it; it was a small wooden box whose color was indiscernible, and inside the box was a piece of jade with a very unique texture.

Lord Liu had never looked at her with such a solemn expression before, and now his lowered gaze was fixed on the jade pendant.

"Lord Cheng, do you know that this is the Imperial Preceptor's jade pendant?"

Cheng Yunmo was unaware that there was such a thing as a Grand Preceptor in this dynasty, so he nodded and looked on without saying anything.

"In fact, there should only be one Grand Preceptor in our court. I don't know why, but when it came to the Emperor, it became that there was one Grand Preceptor during the reign of the Retired Emperor, and the Emperor has another Grand Preceptor. Actually, no one knows this. Everyone thinks that the Emperor's Grand Preceptor was executed before he could even speak to the Emperor. In fact, the Grand Preceptor specially sent someone to see me and specially brought this jade pendant."

Cheng Yunmo nodded. "So, this jade pendant is quite important."

"The people the Imperial Advisor brought here told me that as long as I have this jade pendant, I will not die so easily, and in the future, I will have helpers to help the Emperor get rid of the control of the Retired Emperor and the Empress Dowager."

Cheng Yunmo couldn't help but point to his nose, "So you think I'm your accomplice?"

"correct."

A few days later, Cheng Yunmo was taken to a carriage by Lord Liu.

Cheng Yunmo was actually quite skeptical. In such a chaotic place, could he really get to where he wanted to go by carriage?

While traveling, Lord Liu said to Lord Cheng, who had this question, "Lord Cheng, there's no need to worry. If it were just me, I would certainly worry about not being able to go. But with you by my side, I can go."

Cheng Yunmo, "..."

It was soon proven that Lord Liu's words were not without basis.

Liang Yu still assigned two people to protect Lord Liu, worried that something might happen to them.

Cheng Yunmo was originally planning to travel in the carriage with Lord Liu when he saw the guard whispering something to Lord Liu, and he heard Lord Liu's very happy expression.

"Okay, we'll do it your way."

Cheng Yunmo was arranged by the two to change into a special, authoritative outfit. When he put on this outfit, he looked very serious and mysterious.

Looking at the clothes Cheng Yunmo was wearing, Lord Liu felt a deep sense of admiration for the Emperor's thoughtfulness.

The Emperor still remembered the Imperial Advisor, so he specially made a set of clothes for the Imperial Advisor, like a female version, with some differences, but it still looked formidable.

Along the way, there were some ordinary-looking people who intentionally struck up conversations with travelers, and they would inadvertently bring up the matter of the female disciples under the Grand Preceptor.

Gradually, news of the Imperial Preceptor's female disciple began to circulate along the way.

In particular, there is a rumor that anyone who sincerely helps the female disciple of the Imperial Preceptor will receive food.

Food is extremely important to most of the disaster victims.

The disaster victims began to follow the places where the rumors were prevalent, hoping to find the female disciple of the Imperial Preceptor.

Cheng Yunmo never expected the rumors to be so outrageous.

In fact, only the emperor had such a special opportunity to casually cultivate land outside the barren mountains and still be able to grow so many watermelons that were big and sweet.

Although she could always be by her side in the desolate mountains, it would inevitably cause trouble.

Wait, Cheng Yunmo suddenly realized something. Half a day had passed since she changed her clothes, and she hadn't turned into any form of nothingness.

Cheng Yunmo was stunned; this had never happened before.

Even half a day has never been this stable for her.

It was only at this moment that Cheng Yunmo began to realize that the clothes she was wearing were not just ordinary clothes.

"This outfit is so unique."

Lord Liu hadn't expected Lord Cheng to be there the whole time, but to his surprise, she's still here now.

As they entered the carriage, they heard Lord Cheng's somewhat surprised voice.

"The jade pendant really is effective."

When Lord Liu looked at Lord Cheng, he thought of how the jade pendant had been carefully placed in his sleeve and had been sewn up so that it wouldn't be easily noticed.

Cheng Yunmo was startled when he realized that the jade pendant was of great importance to Lord Liu.

"Lord Liu, I remember you cherished the jade pendant the Imperial Advisor gave you so much, why are you..."

Lord Liu immediately realized that the jade pendant given to him by the Imperial Preceptor could not possibly be just a souvenir; it was originally intended for Lord Cheng.

"It's better to keep Lord Cheng. He can maintain this state without someone else's body, which is already very good."

Cheng Yunmo looked down at herself. Although she could maintain her appearance as a living person, which was good, she could always hear something cracking. If she wasn't mistaken, it was the jade pendant.

"No, it looks like the jade pendant is breaking."

Under Lord Liu's instructions, Cheng Yunmo found the jade pendant and opened it up. Sure enough, there was a small crack on the jade pendant.

"Indeed, I am suited to remain alive forever. What a pity about this jade pendant."
