"My wife..."

Yun Lian flicked her fingertips and tossed a simplified version of the pill into his mouth.

A faint peach scent filled his mouth, and Bai Mu seemed to awaken from a dream.

"This one is more suitable for you."

With his top-notch sense of smell and taste, and the comprehensive enhancement that he could barely feel, it was like adding wings to a tiger.

Before long, Bai Mu felt a faint odor emanating from his body, and as time went on, the smell became stronger and stronger.

When Yun Lian saw the changes in his body, she covered her mouth and laughed.

"Bai Mu, there's a stream over there. Perhaps you need a bath now more than ever."

Bai Mu's pale face was flushed with embarrassment.

He almost stumbled and jumped into the river, the sound carrying far away.

"My lady, wait for me!"

Yun Lian sat leisurely on the tree.

"Don't worry, I promise I'll peek."

Bai Mu blushed at her bold remarks, but then felt a sense of shared sorrow.

Before his wife returned, they didn't even dare to dispose of Lan Han's body. They only dared to find the most precious ice coffin to preserve his body.

However, after the wife met him once, no one else ever saw Lan Han again.

Even if they ask, the wife will find all sorts of excuses to change the subject.

After Lan Han left, the wife didn't seem sad at all.

Aside from staying up all night to protect Lan Han, the later wife seemed to have returned to the time when they first met in their youth.

Even Lan Han's wife was treated this way.

What if it were him?

If it were his wife, how would she treat him?

Bai Mu was in a state of confusion, and didn't even notice that he was suddenly covered in dirt.

When he came ashore, Yun Lian threw him a brand new set of men's robes. After he changed into them, he became even more awkward when he came out.

Who was the original owner of the robes that Her Highness the Crown Princess gave him?

Their clothing style is not that of any of the four.

But where else could the princess get men's clothes besides them?

"What are you thinking about? Bai Mu, hurry up and catch up. We've just dealt with the East District, and we still have three districts of soldiers who haven't been successfully transformed. Time is of the essence."

"Understood, wife."

After two months of continuous service among the armies in the four cardinal directions, Yun Lian finally returned to the palace.

The day she returned, Yunxi personally went to the city gate to greet her.

The moment Yun Xi saw Yun Lian, tears streamed down her face almost instantly.

As an empress who commands respect from all directions, she now nestled against Yun Lian like a little bird, burying her head tightly in his arms.

"Royal sister, why do you always leave me for so long? You can even bring Bai Mu out with you, why can't you bring me?"

Yun Lian took out a handkerchief from her bosom and quietly wiped away her tears.

"You're not a child anymore, why are you crying? Bai Mu is a free man, but you are different; you are the ruler of a country."

"Even without Bai Mu, the Imperial Medical Academy can still have countless physicians. But Yun Kingdom cannot do without you. Besides, didn't you threaten me yourself, saying that if I didn't bring Bai Mu with me, I couldn't go anywhere?"

"I was just worried about your health."

"That's why the first thing I came to see when I got back this time was you. Yun Xi, how about we take a gamble together and strive for a bright future for Yun Kingdom?"

"Of course I dare, my royal sister. Go ahead and do whatever you want. I will always be there to support you."

Yunxi realized that she was really not cut out to be an emperor, but how tragic it would be if her elder sister, who was born with all sorts of abilities, were confined to that small, isolated place.

"Elder sister, do you really not want to ascend the throne?"

Yun Lian reached out and ruffled her fluffy hair.

"You wanted to be empress before, but it was just because you always competed with me and were driven by your unwillingness to admit defeat."

“Yun Xi, I am so glad that the Yun Kingdom was entrusted to you during my absence.”

If she were in the hands of someone else, she couldn't even imagine what Yun Kingdom would be like after she returned.

“You are in a good position. The Empress’s robes suit you very well. From now on, I will be your sharpest knife, ready to stab wherever I point.”

"Yunxi, from now on, I will always be your support. Not only can I fight for you with confidence, but you should also try to believe in me. Whatever you want, I will fight for it for you."

"I believe in my elder sister."

After meeting Yun Xi, Yun Lian didn't have any free time either.

They worked almost non-stop.

Unlike other worlds, Yun Kingdom does not allow her to use advanced technology at will.

Seeing the vibrant and diverse world outside, she realized just how impoverished and deprived the Yun Kingdom was at that moment.

Having personally handled real swords and guns, and even used magical artifacts to fly through the air, she was not very satisfied with the machetes and red-tasseled spears used by the military.

If that day really comes.

All the soldiers' weapons had to be replaced.

Regardless of what kind of demons and monsters surround her, in this era dominated by cold weapons, she urgently needs to create firearms.

Yun Lian found her third husband – Lunu.

Despite his cold and hard appearance, he has an exceptionally skillful hand, and most of the improved weapons used in the military were made by him.

Based on most of the memories she had absorbed, Yun Lian wrote down the gunpowder formula for him and drew a rough diagram of how to make a gunpowder crossbow.

Lunu thought that seeing Lan Han like that would make her despondent.

Unexpectedly, his wife was like a tenacious wild grass in the cold wind, no matter how the wind and fire raged, she would always be lush and vibrant in the spring of the following year.

"Lunu, can you understand me?"

As Lunu gazed at the exquisite drawings on the blueprints, his admiration was almost impossible to hide.

Although he had no intention of hiding it.

"I understand. I will give my wife an answer in 5 days."

"Okay, I'll wait for your good news."

After giving him her instructions, Yun Lian hurriedly walked towards the door.

Lunu silently withdrew his outstretched hand, his gaze lingering on Yun Lian's skirt fluttering in the wind.

"They really come and go like the wind."

But his wife was like the free wind in the mountains and fields, coming and going as she pleased.

Lunu gently stroked the paper with his fingers. During the time his wife had returned, it was as if he had done all the things she hadn't done while she was asleep, all at once.

If someone had told him before that he would be using fine, smooth paper someday, he would never have believed it.

But the wife's wishes came true.

Paper was no longer the exclusive property of royalty and nobility; even ordinary people could afford it.

In just a few months, many new gadgets that had never appeared before sprang up in the Yun Kingdom.

The training grounds where the soldiers practice are often filled with noise, the sound of warriors clashing.

The princess also simplified the text, making it not only easier to understand but also more convenient and faster to write.

Her Majesty the Queen has also promulgated many policies that benefit the country and its people in the past few months.

The entire Yun Kingdom has undergone almost complete changes.

Even the former empress, who had been in seclusion for many years, would occasionally leave the palace and often follow Her Highness, traveling with her to every corner of the Yun Kingdom.

Even the soldiers guarding the city have a completely different spirit and morale than before.

The Cloud Kingdom has changed!
