Mu Yun'an looked at Xiao Chengyi and the people behind him. Each of their faces was filled with the purest smiles.
Although these people may not have much talent, when they were taken as hostages, none of them were greedy for life or afraid of death. This is the most precious thing about them.
"Let's go and show this king the iron ore."
Now that Xiao Chengyi is here, he needs to find out what the output of this iron mine is?
Xiao Li is dead, but the forces behind him are still there, able to take over a city as their own, blatantly mining iron ore, forging weapons, and placing men in military camps.
This is definitely not something Xiao Li can do alone. In the past three years, how many mines have been opened, how many weapons have been forged, and how many people have been raised. Only by understanding these things can we have countermeasures.
And the people who know these things best are the people who mine the ores.
Xiao Chengyi was led by the common people to check out the iron mine. However, the environment in the mine was poor, so Xiao Chengyi did not let Mu Yunan follow him, but stayed and waited for him.
Not long after, Jiang Ru came over with someone. She looked Mu Yunan up and down and asked, "Are you okay? I was really scared to death just now."
She witnessed what happened today, and her admiration for Mu Yun'an became even deeper. Ordinary people did not have such courage as her, so it was no wonder that Xiao Chengyi had to choose her.
Mu Yun'an smiled and said, "It's okay. By the way, you were the one pretending to be me under the tower before, right?"
Jiang Rudao: "It's the regent's intention. He asked Qingying to come to me and ask me to disguise myself as you and blend in with the crowd to confuse the palace owner of the Yuhuo Palace."
After a pause, she asked curiously: "You didn't know beforehand?"
Mu Yun'an shook his head: "When we came, we didn't expect that Yuhuo Palace would threaten the people."
Jiang Ru was surprised: "In other words, everything that happened today was not arranged in advance by you and the regent?"
Mu Yun'an said: "No."
Jiang Ru covered her mouth. She looked at Mu Yun'an blankly and said, "Then you...the regent..."
She stammered and couldn't speak clearly.
Mu Yun'an knew what she was going to say. She smiled and said, "You want to ask me why I did this? How could Brother Yi let me do this?"
Jiang Rudao: "I always thought you had some arrangements."
Mu Yun'an looked into the distance, where Xiao Chengyi was talking with the common people.
He stood in the crowd, with a handsome appearance, talking eloquently, and occasionally casting a gentle glance.
Mu Yun'an smiled lightly and looked away: "Since Brother Yi is the regent, he should shoulder the responsibilities on his shoulders, and as his princess, I naturally have to share his worries.
Furthermore, if we ignore those people, Brother Yi's reputation will be destroyed in one day.
The people will say that he abandoned his people for a woman, and they will say that I am a beauty and a disaster. Even if we are together, we will still be criticized.
Therefore, I do this not only for Brother Yi, but also for the common people.
If I save hundreds of their lives with my own life, it is worth it. I don’t regret what happened today, and I will still make the same choice when encountering such things in the future.”
After this incident, she truly understood the mission they carried. She also understood the importance between love and national justice.
In the previous life, Xiao Chengyi abandoned the country for her, causing the country to fall into turmoil and the people to be displaced. Rebirth is not their chance, but God's. There is also a choice.
If love is more important than the country, the country, and the common people, then she and Xiao Chengyi will never be together.
Only with the world in mind can she and Xiao Chengyi stay together forever.
Jiang Ru was a little moved. You must know that Mu Yun'an's righteous act is not something that everyone can do.
