Whatever he said was like water being thrown out. No matter how unwilling he was, Pei Yuanzhen could only swallow the bitter pill silently. After all, it was the topic he raised.

However, he still has some confidence in his appearance. Now that he has regained his strength, the princess will not get tired of him so quickly.

The two of them had finished chatting and started discussing preparations for the border. They were not going to be tortured. The border was a dangerous place for others, but for Pei Yuanzhen and Muning, it was like a fish out of water.

In that extremely dangerous place, there were too many places for them to act.

After chatting until late at night, Pei Yuanzhen couldn't bear it when he saw that Muning's eyes were blue and he was even yawning.

She looked like that after working so hard last night, and she still has to work hard today.

Pei Yuanzhen put down his pen: "Go to sleep, I understand what you have to do, and I will complete it for you."

Muning looked at him, a little worried: "Are you sure?"

"Princess, just look at the result."

"Then I'm going to sleep in the study. If you have any imperfections, I can get up early and help you correct them."

Pei Yuanzhen saw her stubbornness and acquiesced.

He carefully covered her with the quilt before returning to the desk.

The whole night, the light was not turned off.

Muning, who got up early, found that he was doing well and in a good mood. She still had a smile on her face until she reached the city gate.

Today was the day they were going to set off, and neither of them wanted to make any announcement. Due to an accident, they postponed it for a day. They thought their actions were very covert.

But when he arrived at the city gate, Muning discovered that a lot of people had gathered here.

The common people had been waiting here for a long time. After waiting for a day and finding no whereabouts of the princess, they held on to hope again and waited here the next day. This time they finally got there.

Before the law, Muning was a sinner. She killed the court official without permission, but in the eyes of the people, she was a living Bodhisattva.

Even though she is a woman and the emperor's daughter, her biggest label in their eyes is that of benefactor.

In a class-based society, the common people naturally know that if this princess does not wade into this muddy water, she can live a life of food and clothing without any worries.

But she chose this path.

The bitter cold and severe conditions in the frontier meant that no one would live long... The emperor was cruel, and they didn't dare to say it.

But their love for Muning was reflected in their expressions, and many people wiped away tears when they saw Muning.

Countless people even knelt down towards her.

She was an official for only a short time, but she saved far more people than those ministers saved in their lifetime.

How come those people who were rescued by her don't feel grateful to her?

Muning rode over, and many people tried their best to stuff things on her horse, including all kinds of home-cooked specialties, and even eggs that the old man had saved for several days and was reluctant to eat... They put the most important things on her horse.

All were delivered.

Muning's eyes were slightly moist, but her horse was so big, how could it hold so many things.

She has been refusing and saying she doesn't want it, but the people are more determined than her. If she doesn't want it, then she shouldn't leave.

Faced with such simple feelings, Muning was a little bit dumbfounded.

When she was in a dilemma, Pei Yuanzhen gave her subordinates a look.

The men immediately took action. They accepted all the things given by the people, and before the people noticed it, they stuffed the banknotes enough to buy ten times the things into their pockets.

Seeing what Pei Yuanzhen did, Muning showed him a satisfied smile.

"Fathers and fellow villagers, please go back. Don't worry, I will take good care of myself. Please live a good life. If you still have unjust cases, write them down and send them to me. If you can solve them, I will definitely help you solve them."

As soon as she said this promise, the eyes of the people immediately lit up.

Muning's name is a living sign. With her promise, at least half of their fear of an unjust case has been eliminated.

Muning chatted with them for a while and then left.

Pei Yuanzhen has been following Muning silently. No one knows him. He has lived in seclusion for so many years, and many people can't remember his face.

What's more, his fierceness was unstoppable and his murderous aura made people dare not look directly at him. Many people did not dare to look at his face, let alone what he looked like.

Seeing the two people walking in close proximity, someone boldly asked: "Princess, is this the face you raised?"

As soon as these words came out, they immediately diluted the sadness of parting, and the people looked at the two of them with teasing eyes.

I have to say that the looks of these two people really match each other. The two extremely beautiful people standing together are pleasing to the eye just by looking at them.

Moreover, at first glance, this young master has a good temperament and an air of immortality. People who don't know where he comes from think that he is an immortal. It is obviously okay for him to match the princess. Many people are nodding silently.

Muning smiled and glanced at Pei Yunzhen behind her, and she said slowly: "He is a knight and is willing to escort me to the border. Don't make fun of him."

The people immediately showed respect and dared to escort the princess to the border when the whole world was attacking her. This was really a chivalrous act.

Seeing that he has such an outstanding temperament, all the people behind him are bright-eyed, and they look like Lian Jiazi. Having him escort the princess will at least provide a little more protection.

A group of people all expressed gratitude to Pei Yuanzhen, asking him to take good care of Muning.

Pei Yuanzhen could only respond with a nod. In fact, he was a little disappointed with her answer.

He didn't know what answer he was expecting.

It took them a full hour before they said goodbye to the enthusiastic people.

The two of them walked out of the city gate, and the road was much less crowded.

They were on the road and couldn't talk much, so they didn't speak all the way.

But after just ten miles, a carriage stopped in the middle of the road, blocking their way.

A gorgeously dressed woman walked out of the carriage. The woman opened her curtain and saw that it was Mu Mingyu.

Before Mu Mingyu could speak, she looked straight at Pei Yuanzhen with tearful eyes.

Seeing through her sad eyes, Muning glanced at Pei Yuanzhen with a half-smile.

Pei Yuanzhen felt Mu Ning's gaze and looked at Mu Mingyu with a hint of disgust.

Mu Mingyu had already walked straight towards this side. She looked at Pei Yuanzhen and shed tears.

"Mr. Pei, what do you think? Why do you want to go to that place? Isn't it good to be safe and sound in the capital?" Mu Mingyu said, her tone becoming fierce.

Pei Yuanzhen looked cold and said nothing.

Mu Mingyu looked at Muning who was still smiling at the side, feeling new and old grudges welling up at the same time.
