Origin System, I have a barren mountain

Mu Wanwan never imagined that the Emperor would grant her such great authority without even having met her.

Xiao Youzi was extremely respectful, treating Mu Wanwan almost the same way she treated the Empress.

Everyone here is intelligent, so there's no need to elaborate on how they treat Mu Wanwan.

It was at this moment that Cheng Yunmo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She had read many novels, and in those novels, it seemed that those who were enemies of the male and female protagonists never had a good ending.

Although it's dangerous to be by the side of the male and female leads.

Mu Wanwan personally wrote down these people's names, and these people gained a reputation in the previous dynasty.

Cheng Yunmo saw the words Mu Wanwan had written and noticed something special about them. These words seemed to drift around and some even landed directly on Mu Wanwan's face.

Mu Wanwan seemed oblivious to all of this, only looking around blankly.

When Cheng Yunmo saw this scene, a smile crossed his mind.

If that's true, then Mu Wanwan is the chosen one.

However, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor Emeritus are truly audacious, keeping the Chosen One imprisoned for so long. It's unclear whether the Chosen One is truly destined for this calamity or what.

By the time the Empress Dowager received the news, it was already too late.

When the Empress Dowager rushed over in anger, she found that the group had already gone to find the Emperor.

"Okay, very good!"

The Empress Dowager angrily went directly to the Emperor, but the journey there was far from peaceful.

Rumble!

The crowd hadn't heard such a commotion for decades. It wasn't brought by any extraordinary person; it simply appeared out of nowhere.

It started pouring rain right away.

Mu Wanwan hadn't seen the Emperor for many years. When she finally saw him, he was standing at the palace gate, staring blankly at the sky outside.

"Your subject, Mu Wanwan, pays her respects to Your Majesty."

Liang Yu's gaze fell on Mu Wanwan, who had come over. Although he hadn't seen her for many years, she hadn't changed much from what he remembered, and she didn't look like she had been tortured.

This gave him a little peace of mind, after all, he had felt guilty towards Prime Minister Mu over the years.

"Okay, okay, get up quickly."

Liang Yu's eyes were filled with genuine joy, and Mu Wanwan's previously anxious heart calmed down considerably.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, His Majesty."

The eunuchs and officials who appeared knelt down and said...

Cheng Yunmo stood in an inconspicuous corner, looking at the sky. He hadn't expected such a heavy rain to come down, and it made him feel incredibly happy.

The Empress Dowager originally wanted to find the Emperor, but she was injured on the way.

The Empress Dowager had never been injured so severely. She had originally planned to go to the Emperor to finish up the remaining matters, but she never expected that she would end up like this before she even had the chance.

"Your Majesty, we must not act rashly."

The head maid behind him suddenly stepped forward and spoke.

Looking at the expressionless head maid, the Empress Dowager suddenly realized that the head maid was right. She didn't know why she hadn't thought of this.

"Okay, let's go back."

Compared to the Empress Dowager's side, the Emperor's side is feeling rather disheartened.

No one expected to see such heavy rain, so everyone consciously stored water.

Furthermore, thanks to the seeds that Lord Cheng had previously sent, many seedlings have sprouted in various places.

Mu Wanwan was the empress of a country. On the day she was crowned empress, it was raining, though not as heavily as before, but a huge rainbow hung in the sky, which was breathtakingly beautiful.

The ministers looked at Empress Mu Wanwan with a different expression.

The Empress Dowager had been ill for several days, and when she finally came out, it had even felt cooler than usual.

Many people, who used to face the sweltering summer heat every day, never expected to encounter such comfortable weather.

The common people also showed great respect for Empress Mu Wanwan.

Cheng Yunmo did not stay in the palace, but stayed in a residence allocated by the emperor.

After Lord Liu was released, he would come over from time to time.

Because Lord Liu was an elder, Cheng Yunmo had to go with him to observe the lives of ordinary people every day.

When Lord Liu came again, Cheng Yunmo couldn't help but yawn as he looked at him.

"Why is Lord Liu so insistent on me taking charge of these matters? The Emperor has many more ministers around him, and these ministers are all exceptionally capable..."

Cheng Yunmo was startled by the servant behind Lord Liu as soon as he opened his mouth. He then saw that the servant Lord Liu had brought was actually carrying a person, who was the official who had been appointed a few days ago.

"What are you doing, Lord Liu? You actually kidnapped the Empress's people!"

Cheng Yunmo was quite frightened. After all, he hadn't heard of any problems with the people the Empress brought out, so why were they tied up?

The servant behind Lord Liu was clearly at a loss, looking at his master without knowing what to say.

"Lock him in the woodshed first, and keep an eye on him at the door."

The servant nodded and then hurriedly led his men away.

Cheng Yunmo stepped aside to make way for the servant, who then locked the person in the woodshed.

"Lord Cheng trusts the Empress too much. Don't forget, the Empress's father is still in your hands. She won't just stand by and watch her father be taken away by you and disappear without a trace."

Cheng Yunmo felt that Lord Liu was overthinking things, and she couldn't help but laugh.

"Lord Liu, you may not know this, but Mu Wanwan is the Empress of a country, a chosen one of Heaven. If you really wanted to ask about her father, why wouldn't you bring it up yourself?"

Most importantly, Cheng Yunmo felt that Mu Wanwan had no reason to attack her without saying anything.

Lord Liu was a little puzzled. He had been wondering why Lord Cheng trusted the Empress so much from the moment they met, as if he was certain the Empress wouldn't do anything.

"No wonder, the people I arrested said you were definitely on the Empress's side, and that you wouldn't believe anything I said."

what?

Upon hearing what Lord Liu said, Cheng Yunmo looked at Lord Liu with suspicion.

"The people who were just arrested don't recognize me, so how can he be so sure?"

Lord Liu shook his head helplessly. If he hadn't asked a few probing questions earlier, he really wouldn't have known.

"Come on, come with me to the woodshed."

Cheng Yunmo was completely bewildered, but still followed Lord Liu.

The servant waiting at the door of the woodshed was looking in that direction, and from inside the woodshed came the voice of the other party trying to persuade the servant.

"Really, believe me, stop following Lord Liu, let me out, and I can give you a lot of things."

"Whether you want food or not, and how much you want, I can consider it. You can name your price."
