Suddenly, the image of General Mu, who was as majestic as a mountain in his mind, suddenly became down-to-earth.

Ning Zhi fell into deep thought, somewhat like his mother who would hug any child she saw, and even give him a disdainful look.

"General Mu likes children?" Ning Zhi asked in confusion. He had never seen General Mu pay much attention to any children before.

That makes sense, though. Any child would run away from General Mu or burst into tears upon seeing him. Which child would dare to act like this little girl, clinging to General Mu and acting spoiled?

She showered General Mu with sweet words as if she were courting death.

Even as a man, he couldn't help but want to fulfill all her requests.

Mu Yunnan glanced at him. "Whether I like children or not, do you think you don't know?"

They fought for so many years, and so many civilians and soldiers died. All the unclaimed children were taken in by her in the name of the Duke of Mu's mansion. She opened an orphanage and used her own salary to support these children.

Despite raising them, she never went inside to check on them, simply because these children were genuinely afraid of her.

Ning Zhi, as Mu Yunnan's subordinate, was fully aware of all of this.

Mu Yunnan felt a headache coming on when he thought about the enormous expenses incurred by the orphan.

I didn't realize how much this expense was before, but now that I'm raising a child, I feel like I have to give her everything good. I'm afraid her little savings won't last long.

Tsk, that guy in the palace is dirt poor. In his previous life, he only managed to survive for a while because of Yu Xi. He can't expect the Yue Kingdom to take over. We need to find a way to squeeze more money out of him.

Or, how about we start by investigating those corrupt officials from the previous life?

Unaware that some corrupt officials are about to lose their jobs, they are still drinking and making merry, counting their treasuries and grinning from ear to ear.

Unaware that he had been labeled a pauper and considered completely unreliable, the emperor was still pondering in a corner of the military camp what to send to Yunnan without seeming out of place, and then sighed at the poverty of the national treasury.

"Second sister, second sister." Xiao Yuxi tugged at her second sister's sleeve, looking at her with bright eyes.

Mu Yunnan felt a pang in his heart and quickly replied, "What's wrong?"

"Xixi, can you also become a great general who serves the country and its people like big sister?" Little Yuxi said innocently, only thinking that big sister was really amazing and she wanted to be as amazing as big sister.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yunnan paused slightly, his mouth moved slightly, but he couldn't utter a word.

She wanted her to live according to her own ideas in this life, but at the same time she was afraid that she would repeat the path of her previous life.

She was reborn, but Xixi wasn't. If she couldn't always be by her side, would she be plotted against again? Then what was the point of her rebirth?

but……

Mu Yunnan smiled and rubbed her little face, "Xixi will definitely become a great general."

"What should Xixi do?" Xiaoyu asked, puzzled. "Does Xixi have to go running like those older boys?"

“Not yet,” Mu Yunnan shook his head seriously. “Xi Xi’s health hasn’t fully recovered yet. Once she’s better, she can come to the military camp to practice martial arts.”

Such a small child...

Ning Zhi looked at the little girl who wasn't even as tall as his leg and felt a pang of heartache. To become a general as powerful as General Mu—that was a truly lofty goal. None of them didn't take General Mu as their role model, but none of them could say for sure that they would become like General Mu in the future.

General Mu may seem easygoing, but in reality, it's quite accurate to call her the "female Yama" (a powerful and ruthless figure in Chinese mythology).

She was ruthless to her soldiers, but even more ruthless to herself.

The military camp consisted mainly of various training grounds and armories; I only took a brief look around before there was nothing more to see.

"Is there anything you'd like to see, Xixi?" Mu Yunnan looked down at her.

"Xixi wants to see the fight on that platform yesterday!" Xiaoyuxi said with anticipation.

Mu Yunnan thought back carefully. Yesterday on the stage? Was that yesterday's opera? It seems there was indeed a scene where a female general subdued the bandits.

Mu Yunnan raised his head.

The training ground was empty and deserted.

She almost forgot that she had arranged for these people to go out for training.

Ten kilometers, and they still haven't returned.

waste.

Mu Yunnan cursed inwardly, but nodded seriously on the surface, "Ning Zhi."

"The end will be here."

"I heard you're pretty good at fighting? Shall we have a go?" Mu Yunnan's lips curled up as she stepped forward and raised her palm to attack him, saying to Xiao Yuxi as she attacked, "Xixi, stand there and watch your big sister give you a show!"

Ning Zhi hurriedly retreated dozens of steps, feeling the palm wind in front of him. He looked at General Mu in a panic, unable to believe that General Mu was really going to do it!

You call this a performance?

This is simply a master stomping a newbie!

Xiao Yuxi opened her mouth wide in shock as she watched her second sister actually take to the air!

"My second sister is amazing!"

"It's even more impressive than what I saw yesterday!"

"My second sister can fly!"

As Mu Yunnan's fists tightened, Ning Zhi hurriedly dodged, picking up a wooden shield from the side and holding it in front of him.

Just once, "smack—"

The wooden shield shattered instantly, scattering debris everywhere. Mu Yunnan's fist passed right through the shield and stopped right in front of Ning Zhi's eyes.

Ning Zhi looked at the scene before him, his hands trembling slightly. He quickly dodged and looked around at the weapons, wondering if there was anything that could hold him off for even a short while.

General Mu always said he was going to take on ten opponents when he was just playing around, but today, unfortunately, he was the only one there.

A really unlucky person...

Since her rebirth, Mu Yunnan has never fought anyone again. Her current martial arts skills are much higher than they were at this time in her previous life.

It's like a max-level player entering a newbie village.

Purely bullying noobs.

Mu Yunnan smiled as he looked at the bloodstains on his hands from the sawdust, feeling somewhat disgusted that his body was too weak at this moment.

Coming to her senses, she looked at Ning Zhi, who had already run to the side, and then turned to look at Yu Xi, who was looking at her expectantly. In an instant, she leaped forward and attacked Ning Zhi again.

The punch came so fast that Ning Zhi didn't even have time to dodge before being punched in the stomach.

Ning Zhi was stunned for a second after being hit, but then he suddenly remembered that he had changed into a different set of clothes when he entered the military camp, which had blocked most of the attacks. So he was just stunned and didn't feel any pain.

Mu Yunnan rubbed his wrist, slowly walked up to him, looked down at him, and slowly commented, "Too slow, too weak, not decisive enough."

Ning Zhi stood up, changed his posture, and said, "General, let's do it again!"

Mu Yunnan's smile widened. "Very good!"

Suddenly, Xiao Yuxi, who was watching her second older sister and older brother's lively fight, was grabbed by the collar and lifted into the air.

Xiao Yuxi struggled to look back, her face turning bright red.
