I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies

256 Selfless Dedication

However, her harvest this time was not small. The most important thing was that she got blood and ore. One could save her life, and the other could be used to make life-saving tools.

Seeing that she did not accept it, Duanmu Xize did not force her. He carefully put the order of commendation away. As long as this thing was in his hands, if anything happened, he would still be the one to bear the responsibility.

From this, it could be seen that Mo Ruyue was an extremely cautious person and seemed to be very clear about the rules of the game.

However, she was just a commoner, how would she know about this?

A question flashed across Duanmu Xize’s mind. He felt that Lady Qin was more and more mysterious.

“Master Duanmu, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave.”

After looking at the order of commendation, Mo Ruyue took her leave. Although she and Duanmu Xize were temporarily on the same boat, his utilitarian and purposeful nature was too strong. The two of them could not be on the same road for a long time, so she always kept a distance.

“Alright, then I’ll see you at the celebration party tomorrow.”

Duanmu Xize was rather happy, but after Mo Ruyue left, his face immediately darkened. His eyes coldly stared in the direction she left in, not saying a word.

“My Lord, you’ve seen it for yourself. This woman’s wariness is very strong. She’s definitely not someone who can be easily subdued. ”

A man came out from behind the screen. It was Ye Jingzhi.

He slowly walked to Danmu Xize’s side and spoke his mind.

“It’s impossible to conquer a woman like her with force. You’ve done your research. This woman can fight a giant tiger alone and knows all kinds of mechanical skills. Even her five babies are learning martial arts. She’s naturally not weak.”

“In terms of intelligence, she has such superb medical skills and mechanical skills, so her stratagems and wisdom are definitely not low. So, general strategies are ineffective against her. Sir, do you think that when you meet such a woman, you can conquer her?”

Ye Jingzhi said with a smile.

His appearance was refined and handsome, especially when he smiled. It made people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze. However, when he said those words, a hint of madness would occasionally flash in his eyes. However, it was cleverly hidden under the “respect” and “flattery” he showed Duanmu Xize.

Duanmu Xize’s gaze was fixed on the study room’s door, as if just looking at it would make Mo Ruyue look back at him. As for Ye Jingzhi’s words, it was as if he didn’t say anything.

He was not a fool. If he could not analyze these things and could only rely on his aides, he would have died many times in the officialdom.

Ye Jingzhi was already used to Duanmu Xize’s behavior. It was as if the advisor was only there for show. He had always been self-righteous and made all his judgments and decisions. Being able to live until now was already a skill.

Forget it. in any case, he was only using Duanmu Xize as a stepping stone. A mere prefect was far from the end of his ambitions.

The next morning, the entrance of the largest medical center in Ping City was already crowded with people.

The commoners in the city had already seen the announcement that Divine Doctor Qin would be publicly commended and rewarded at the magistrate’s office today. Furthermore, the imperial court would personally issue an order of commendation to commend Divine Doctor Qin for her contributions to the soldiers and his family members.

Although everyone had heard of Divine Doctor Qin and many had seen her before, she was only a mysterious image that was passed down by word of mouth to the commoners of Ping City. Everyone had different opinions about her. However, her mysterious image would be unveiled today.

Mo Ruyue had just come out of the Medical Hall. When she saw the mass of people in front of her, she didn’t even move an eyebrow.

Back when she was in the county town’s Huichun Hall, she had been surrounded by people countless times. Now that she was in Ping City, it was just that there were more people surrounding her. To her, it did not make a difference.

Although Mo Ruyue appeared very calm, when the surrounding commoners saw her, they all let out a cry of disappointment.

She was wearing a curtained hat. The long veil hung down and covered most of her body, but one could still see that she was wearing men’s clothes.

“What? I woke up early in the morning to see what this Lady Qin looks like. Wasn’t she supposed to be a cold beauty? How do you look at it covered up like this!”

“Who asked you not to be one of those soldiers or their family members? They can see it, but you don’t have the good fortune to see it.”

“It’s not like you can’t be seen. Why do you have to cover your face? So many people have seen it. Is there still a need to do this? ”

“It’s her face. If she wants to cover it, she will cover it. It’s none of your business. Who said she had to show it to you? ”

“Alright, stop arguing. If you have the ability, go and take off her hat. What’s the use of talking here?”

Duanmu Xize had not expected that Mo Ruyue would cause such a huge discussion just by showing her face. However, this also showed that Mo Ruyue was already an influential figure and not the silent “divine doctor” from before.

He listened to the news reported by his subordinate and watched Mo Ruyue enter the government office and walk towards him step by step. Suddenly, he felt that this woman seemed to have a halo around her body, causing her entire body to be shrouded in a faint halo. For a moment, she was so dazzling that he couldn’t look at her directly.

“As expected of the woman that I’ve taken a fancy to. No wonder she wants to use my power to intimidate some people. But can she protect herself until the end?”

Duanmu Xize muttered, the interest in his eyes growing.

The people of Ping City were very familiar with their own magistrate. In their eyes, he could be described with two words. One was “approachable” and the other was “loving the people like their own children”.

Of all the officials in Ping City, the one with the best reputation was undoubtedly the magistrate.

When Duanmu Xize saw that Mo Ruyue had arrived, he immediately stood up from behind the table and came over to welcome her.

“Lady Qin, you’re here. Come, follow me to the door of the yamen. After I read out the order of commendation, you can receive your thanks.”

He walked forward and reached out to grab Mo Ruyue’s hand, but she dodged it by turning her body slightly.

Duanmu Xize’s expression did not change. He only retracted his hand very naturally and waved to his side. An aide beside him immediately carried a tray covered with a red cloth over.

“Please, my lord.”

Mo Ruyue stepped aside to let Duanmu Xize walk in front. Her attitude wasn’t very respectful, but it was clearly much better than her previous attitude.

The two of them appeared in front of the citizens of Ping City, one after the other. The originally buzzing of discussion suddenly turned into a clamor.

“Everyone, quiet down!”

Duanmu Xize raised his hands slightly and quickly suppressed the sound of the drums.

“Everyone should know that the one standing beside me now is Lady Qin, who has made great contributions to the soldiers and their families guarding the city. It is her selfless contribution that can exchange for everyone’s health.”

“I have already reported this matter to the imperial court, and the order of commendation was already issued a few days ago. That is to say, Lady Qin could have received the commendation a few days ago and retired.”
