Xiao Yuxi asked, utterly puzzled, "Does everyone here have to listen to Second Sister?"

Second sister?

This girl should be the child of Mu Siyi, the former top female scholar in Beijing, who has been the subject of much discussion in the capital recently.

Miss Mu, a cousin.

Upon his return, he immediately had most of the ladies and daughters of prominent families in the capital come to him for introductions.

It turns out it's such a thin and small creature.

“We all belong to the general’s command, so naturally we are all under his jurisdiction. However, the general is mainly in charge of the border area, so once he leaves, we will be much more relaxed.”

"Second sister won't leave! Second sister said she'll stay with Xixi as she grows up, and she won't leave Xixi."

???

!!!

Not leaving the capital?

The soldier was so frightened that he hiccuped.

If they don't return to the frontier, won't they be the ones who suffer?

Having finally returned to the capital from the frontier, he still couldn't escape the general's grasp!

What a human suffering this is!

Having just assigned three times the training standards to everyone in the camp, Mu Yunnan looked around at the empty landscape and instantly felt much more at ease. So focused on punishing those spreading rumors, he didn't notice Xiao Yuxi's conversation with that person.

"Come here, Xi Xi." Mu Yunnan reached out and lifted Xiao Yu Xi onto the horse's back.

After making sure she was seated properly, he slowly led the horse for a walk in the huge riding arena.

It was Xiaoyu's first time riding a horse. Her eyes were sparkling, her little body swayed back and forth, and her little hands gripped the rope tightly.

Although the little pony was young, it carried a child effortlessly. It was somewhat restrained and wanted to run away, but Mu Yunnan held it back tightly.

Although she dared to bring Xiao Yuxi to the military camp to ride horses, she prioritized Xiao Yuxi's safety. She would be crazy to let the pony run wild like that.

"Second sister, could you go a little faster?" She had seen a little boy riding incredibly fast at the Mu family's horse farm last time! It looked like he was about to take off at any moment!

Mu Yunnan thought for a moment, then picked up Xiao Yuxi and carried her onto another large horse.

"drive!"

With a shout, the horse galloped off like the wind.

Little Yu Xi sat in her second sister's arms, being well protected.

Mu Yunnan looked at the figure ahead and quickly pulled on the reins, sitting on his horse and looking incredulously at the emperor dressed in ordinary clothes.

"emperor?"

The Emperor happened to be here today to inspect the army's training. These soldiers had never seen him before, and he had arranged for several of them to have a day off. He wanted to see how these soldiers were training.

Upon hearing that Mu Yunnan had brought a child to the military camp, he originally intended to keep his distance, but somehow he found himself nearing the horse farm and standing on one side, watching her in her dress from afar.

It still shines as brightly as the sun.

The emperor's gaze slowly shifted from her face to the face of the little girl in her arms.

No wonder...

No wonder she stormed into the palace that day with her pardon just to snatch a royal physician to take back to her residence.

No wonder she's been asking him to replace the gifts with fabrics and jewelry these past few days; he just says she's never been one for those things.

But there was one person who liked it extremely much.

The general who repeatedly won battles against overwhelming odds in his previous life.

General Xi.

Born into humble circumstances with no family, he directly confiscated his family's business assets to support the Yue Kingdom through years of famine and war.

When the Duke of Mu's mansion was convicted of treason and sentenced for multiple crimes, he returned to his ancestral home under the title of the Ever-Victorious General, used the pardon to save the lives of the entire Mu family, and proudly told everyone that the Mu family was innocent!

The military marching map, the city's defense map, and the map of the garrison in the capital were not intentionally leaked by the Mu family.

He presented all the evidence, one by one, in front of the civil and military officials, showing no respect whatsoever to these powerful ministers from aristocratic families.

She also directly beheaded the treacherous officials in the main hall.

"I, a woman, will fight to the end, while you men are all weak and easily bullied, betraying your masters for personal gain. As long as one member of the Mu family remains, we will swear to defend the Yue Kingdom to the death!"

Her words from her past life were still vivid in her mind, but it was a pity that she died too young, completely betrayed and killed by her own people.

If she were still alive at that time, with her wealth and military strength, the Moon Kingdom wouldn't have been destroyed so easily.

This little girl is still a baby drinking milk.

The Emperor couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips into a smile, "Is this the child you bring home every day after leaving early, my dear minister?"

Mu Yunnan thought for a moment, then got off the carriage, picked up Xiao Yuxi, and pulled her to stand in front of the Emperor. "Come here, call him brother-in-law."

The emperor's smile froze, his gaze darkened, and a flicker of emotion crossed his eyes. He seemed to want to say something, but remained silent.

"Brother-in-law." Xiao Yuxi looked up at him and tentatively tugged at his clothes.

"Is your brother-in-law unhappy?" Xiao Yuxi sensed his emotional state very keenly and looked at him with some confusion.

If you remove that "big" part...

The Emperor quickly focused his mind and dismissed the thought, looking at her, "What's wrong? But you, little girl, why are you frowning too?"

"Your Majesty, has the flood in Pi County been resolved? Have all the disaster victims been settled? And..." Mu Yunnan, completely oblivious to the situation, was puzzled as to why the Emperor, who should have been busy, was here.

In my past life, this time of year was a time when local officials frantically amassed wealth, a time of disaster for the people, and a time of celebration for them.

It wasn't until the final battle that they discovered they had almost no money left. When asked to donate, they all started crying poverty, claiming they were honest and incorruptible.

In this life, she immediately reported all the corrupt officials she knew from her previous life, as well as all the natural and man-made disasters that she hadn't reported to the capital in her previous life. She also heard that Yun Chao had submitted a more comprehensive impeachment memorial.

Why is the emperor not in the palace handling state affairs at this time, but has come to the military camp?

Mu Yunnan hesitated as he recalled the scene from his previous life when the emperor ordered the confiscation of his family's property.

Could it be that the Emperor has been thinking about the Mu family's problems since this time?

The emperor never expected that he would encounter her outside the palace and be urged to handle state affairs.

It seems that since her rebirth, she has become extremely worried that he will repeat the same mistakes, leading to the destruction of the Moon Kingdom once again.

From the day he was reborn, he began to investigate corrupt officials one by one, determined to wipe out these parasites in one fell swoop.

At the same time, military strength also needs to be strengthened. In the previous life, military power was too centralized and there were too few great generals. Once Yunnan was injured and Yu Xi died, the generals of the entire Yue Kingdom were paralyzed and could not pose any resistance to the enemy.

The Emperor sighed silently, "All of this has been arranged, my dear minister. What is your younger sister's name? How old is she now?"

Xiao Yuxi looked at her brother-in-law with sparkling eyes. It was her first time meeting the emperor! The princess she had met before was so arrogant that she hadn't even seen her face clearly. But the emperor was much friendlier than that princess!

Little Yu Xi tugged at the Emperor's sleeve, looked up at him, and said, "My name is Yu Xi, and I'm five years old."

Yu Xi, the same name.

I remember that Yun Le was made a princess at the age of ten. If she was five, wouldn't she be a bit too young to be made a princess?
