In the past, these were just minor squabbles between children. He wouldn't openly retaliate, but he would secretly take revenge in private.

None of his classmates who bullied or framed him fared well; they were all punished by him, and to this day, they still don't know that he was the one who did it behind their backs.

He didn't like doing such things behind people's backs. His father had always said that a real man should act with integrity and uprightness.

However, he knew he couldn't defeat them in a one-on-one fight, and he didn't dare offend them for fear of bringing trouble to the general's mansion.

Xue Ruanruan fell silent after hearing this, feeling extremely heartbroken.

I never expected that my younger brother, at such a young age, would already understand the complex interpersonal relationships in the court, and even know how to avoid confrontation and bide his time.

My father was a great general guarding the frontier, leading his two older brothers to fight against the Xiongnu in the harsh environment of the border. However, the emperor was blinded by treacherous officials and allowed them to bully the Xue family at will.

This is unacceptable to her.

"Li'er, don't worry about this. If they bully you again, just fight back. Adult matters are not for you to worry about. Do whatever you want as long as you're happy. Your big sister will back you up."

Xue Ruanruan's heart ached and tears streamed down her face again. If she couldn't protect her family in this life, what would be the point of her rebirth?

Left Chancellor Wang Cheng'en was arrogant and autocratic. Although he wielded great power in the court, he offended many people and was disliked by some upright and honest senior officials.

In his past life, he had sided with Murong Luo. It's ironic that such a cunning and treacherous villain ended up living a good life.

However, now that she has been reborn, she will no longer let him live so freely and easily. As for Murong Luo, since the two of them are in cahoots and share the same wicked ways, then let them go to hell together.

As you said, the Left Chancellor is indeed in power at present, and all civil and military officials are vying to curry favor with him. His influence in the court is deeply entrenched and should not be underestimated. It would be no easy task to take him down.

But just because she couldn't do it doesn't mean others couldn't. Murong Xun was the only one who didn't collude with civil and military officials in private, and his status was enough to rival the Left Chancellor and even the Emperor.

To overthrow the Left Chancellor's faction, the only option is to rely on Murong Xun's influence.

This matter requires careful planning. What we should do now is to help Murong Xun get rid of the Gu poison in his body and support him secretly.

The iron ore he discovered in the space that day, if used to forge weapons, would likely be of great help to him.

She'll think about the rest later. The external wounds on Li'er's body must be cleaned thoroughly; if the wounds become infected and fester, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Xue Ruanruan applied the ointment all over Xue Li's body before letting him go back to his own courtyard to rest.

In order to earn more money faster, she returned to the jade pendant space without hesitation, began to reorganize the land, carefully cultivated every inch of soil, and looked forward to the next harvest.

After doing all this, she stood quietly by the field, gazing at the vibrant land, her heart filled with anticipation.

In the near future, golden rice and wheat will once again grow on this vast land.

There are also grasslands in the distance, perfect for raising livestock. Once they grow up, they are all slaughtered and made into cured meat, which is then sent to the fathers and brothers far away on the frontier.

She still had a lot to do, but fortunately, time seemed to pass slowly in this space, giving her ample time to get a lot done.

After Xue Ruanruan finished sowing all the seeds in the empty fields, she was so tired that she walked to the fruit tree, picked a big, red apple, and ate it in big mouthfuls.
