After returning to the capital, the eldest daughter saved her entire clan with her medical skills.

Chapter 130 Secret Protection

With Murong Xun's help, Xue Ruanruan found those who had bullied Xue Li. She faced them fearlessly and fought for her brother's rightful apology and compensation. From then on, those people never dared to bully Xue Li again.

This incident brought Xue Ruanruan and Murong Xun closer together. Murong Xun also realized that although he was of noble status, he should also care about those around him. He began to pay more attention to Xue Ruanruan and Xue Li, and became their good friend.

Xue Li was young but sensible. Beneath Murong Xun's handsome exterior lay a warm heart. Xue Ruanruan was deeply moved; he had saved her life in a past life, and now her master had died before her eyes.

Xue Li was young but sensible. He knew that Murong Xun's identity was unknown, but seeing that his older sister was safe and sound, he lowered his guard. He held Xue Ruanruan's hand tightly and said with a firm look in his eyes, "Big sister, let's go."

Looking at Xue Li, Murong Xun felt a surge of warmth in his heart. Beneath his handsome exterior lay a warm heart. He sensed Xue Li's care for Xue Ruanruan and understood his place in the young boy's heart.

Xue Ruanruan was deeply moved. In her past life, Murong Xun had saved her life, and in this life, her master had died before her eyes. She couldn't help but lament the capriciousness of fate, while also feeling immense gratitude towards Murong Xun.

She gently patted Xue Li's hand and said softly, "Xiao Li, thank you. Let's go."

Murong Xun looked at Xue Ruanruan, a pang of heartache flashing in his eyes. He knew she had endured too much suffering. He secretly vowed to protect her and never let her suffer any more harm.

The three of them walked out of the courtyard together and began their journey back to the manor. All the way, Xue Li held Xue Ruanruan's hand tightly, as if afraid she would disappear again. Murong Xun silently followed behind them, protecting them.

Xue Ruanruan glanced back at Murong Xun, her heart filled with emotion. She knew that her fate was now inextricably linked with this man's.

He leaped down from the wall, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes. The situation at court was critical; the Left Chancellor was stirring up trouble and framing loyal officials, the Grand General was running out of supplies on the frontier, and the Xue family army was gnawing on grass roots and tree bark. These reports weighed heavily on his heart like a stone.

He knew that the country was facing unprecedented challenges, and as a martial artist, he bore the responsibility of protecting his homeland. He decided to step forward and do his part for the country and its people.

He turned and left, his steps firm and powerful. He knew the road ahead was fraught with peril, but he was fearless. He would use his martial arts and wisdom to wage a life-or-death struggle against the forces of evil.

In his heart, the interests of the country and the people are paramount. He believes that as long as everyone is united, they will surely overcome difficulties and usher in a bright future.

Rumors circulated among the people that the treacherous minister was ruthless, but she felt warmth. When Li'er was bullied at the academy, he came to her rescue, and there were also provisions for the border regions. The emperor was suspicious of her father.

Upon hearing Murong Xun's words, Xue Ruanruan couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. She had never imagined that this rumored ruthless and treacherous minister would have such a gentle side.

Recalling the days when Li'er was bullied at the academy, it was Murong Xun who appeared in time to save her. And then there was the issue of provisions on the frontier; if it weren't for his secret assistance, the soldiers on the border would probably be starving and freezing long ago.

Xue Ruanruan looked at Murong Xun, a feeling of gratitude welling up in her heart. She knew that without his help these past few days, she and her family would probably have already fallen into dire straits.

However, the emperor had become suspicious of her father. Xue Ruanruan knew the danger involved. She couldn't help but worry about her father, and at the same time, she was also concerned about Murong Xun's situation.

The Left Chancellor was filled with pain and inner conflict. He was heartbroken, yet he could not ignore the Regent's actions that day. He knew that the Regent's behavior might have serious consequences, but he also understood that the Regent must have his own reasons and difficulties in doing so.

Looking at the thriving harvest scene in the space, Xue Ruanruan couldn't help but grin. This place was all hers, all hers.

In the distance, herds of cattle and sheep graze, horses roam, and countless fish swim in the sea. The fathers and brothers on the frontier no longer need to worry about not having enough to eat.
