Origin System, I have a barren mountain

"I've heard the Empress Dowager talk about you. You're a green tea b*tch. You want me to go out and become the Emperor's Empress, but you just want to use me as a shield. Let me tell you, Cheng Yunmo, things aren't that simple. I can agree to the Empress Dowager's request to become the Emperor's woman, but you have no right to treat me like this!"

This?

Where did this all come from? Cheng Yunmo felt like he was being wrongly accused.

"I'm telling you, Mu Wanwan, look carefully. I'm not alive, nor am I unmarried. I was murdered. Even after all this, you still suspect me? My husband may be dead, but I don't meet any of the criteria to be the Emperor's man."

Cheng Yunmo has never shied away from talking about his past, nor has he ever had any dealings with the Emperor.

She believed in the importance of marrying someone of equal social standing and never imagined that such an outrageous suspicion would be directed at her.

"Why are you belittling yourself like that? Are you trying to lower my guard?" Mu Wanwan followed him the whole way, her suspicions never fading.

Looking at Mu Wanwan, whose beautiful hair had fallen out severely, Cheng Yunmo felt an indescribable sadness for her.

At this moment, Cheng Yunmo looked at the basement and some doubts arose in her mind that were beyond the scope of her thinking.

"I'm going to take all these people with me."

Cheng Yunmo suddenly stopped and looked at the eunuch who was about to cover her and Mu Wanwan's eyes.

The eunuch never expected that Cheng Yunmo would say such a thing when he was about to leave.

"You? You don't think that just because the Empress Dowager ordered you to take Mu Wanwan away, you can stand here and give us orders, do you?"

The eunuchs originally thought that as long as Cheng Yunmo was obedient, they would be willing to maintain a semblance of harmony. However, they did not expect that the other party would actually take them seriously.

Mu Wanwan couldn't help but tug at Cheng Yunmo's sleeve, her gaze towards him filled with inexplicable confusion.

"Why would you speak to the Empress Dowager's people for the sake of these insignificant individuals? Are you out of your mind?"

Them? The Empress Dowager's people?

Cheng Yunmo finally understood a fact from Mu Wanwan's words: in Mu Wanwan's heart, these people who often spent time with her were all the Empress Dowager's people, so she felt that it was not worth speaking up for the Empress Dowager's people.

What did the Empress Dowager do to Mu Wanwan?

Cheng Yunmo had many doubts, but it wasn't a good time to bring it up.

Cheng Yunmo's attitude was a bit strange, and no one could quite put their finger on it.

When Mu Wanwan realized she couldn't persuade them no matter what she did, she stood aside and said nothing.

“I have said that I must take these people with me, and even if the Empress Dowager comes, I will still say the same thing.”

Cheng Yunmo said.

The others were surprised that Cheng Yunmo had suddenly become so resolute.

Especially the eunuch sent by the Empress Dowager, who originally thought he could handle the matter by himself, suddenly found himself making other demands.

When everyone looked at Cheng Yunmo, they thought he was just there to take care of one person and wouldn't be of any help to them.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yunmo's arrival was rather strange, and he was still thinking about them when he left.

"We are willing to go with you, as long as you are willing to take us out."

One of the men spoke up.

The man looked like someone carrying heavy books.

"Thank you."

Cheng Yunmo rarely has people who are willing to agree with her so quickly, after all, it is actually very difficult to gain her approval given her abilities.

One person stepped forward, while the others watched. A few minutes later, everyone stood behind Cheng Yunmo.

The eunuchs around the Empress Dowager never expected that a mere Cheng Yunmo would do such a thing, and not be afraid of making an enemy of the Empress Dowager.

“Very good, very good. I will tell the Empress Dowager right away.”

Before Cheng Yunmo could speak, the others had already arrested the eunuch, preventing him from filing a complaint for the time being. Then they quickly led the way, and everyone else hurried away.

Mu Wanwan didn't want to be one of them at all, but for some reason, Cheng Yunmo grabbed her wrist tightly when he left, not giving her any chance to escape.

Soon, everyone left the basement together.

Everyone finally saw the long-awaited sunshine, but the sky here clearly showed signs of years of water shortage.

At this moment, Cheng Yunmo glanced at the sky.

No one noticed, but she clearly felt that the temperature in the air was slowly dropping; this peculiar sensation was hard to detect.

"We're out! We're finally out!"

"Thank you benefactor!"

"My benefactor, please let me know if there's anything I can do to help you!"

Everyone was talking at once, as if the gloom had been completely swept away from those who had been locked in the basement.

Cheng Yunmo looked at the group of people who came out, and at this moment, looking at Mu Wanwan, he finally felt that there was a faint aura of fortune about Mu Wanwan.

Originally, she only suspected that these people who were imprisoned were actually Mu Wanwan's most loyal ministers as the female lead.

With them, Xu Guo will naturally undergo great changes.

"I really do need your help with something."

Cheng Yunmo glanced at Mu Wanwan and said.

Mu Wanwan's heart skipped a beat, wondering what Cheng Yunmo meant by the look he had just given her.

After all, when I came out, I hoped not to do anything unnecessary.

Now, Cheng Yunmo wants to establish his authority in front of these people.

Cheng Yunmo bowed respectfully to Mu Wanwan, kneeling on the ground in a grand gesture of respect.

The others were stunned when they saw this scene.

Because they never expected their benefactor to turn out this way.

"Actually, the reason you were rescued today is because of Empress Mu. She is the empress, and she is fighting against the empress dowager. You are out now because I received her orders earlier."

The people initially didn't believe it, but seeing their benefactor bow and be respectfully, they gradually realized that there might really be something they didn't know.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The rest of the people bowed in unison, none of them wanting to be seen as disrespectful by the future empress.

Mu Wanwan never expected Cheng Yunmo to do this.

Cheng Yunmo stared intently at Empress Mu Wanwan as he recounted the current situation of the Xu Kingdom.

When Mu Wanwan was very young, she was locked in this boundless basement. She never imagined that Xu Guo's situation would become so serious.

As Cheng Yunmo was speaking, Xiao Youzi appeared with Mo and others.

"Miss Mu, His Majesty says that these rescued people should be given official status according to the memorials submitted."

Cheng Yunmo was also surprised, not expecting the news to reach the Emperor's ears so quickly.
