She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!-Chapter 45: The Young Master Is a Woman

As for Ning Yuwan, since she went out to clear her mind that year, she hasn’t returned yet. Unlike Ning Yumei, she often visits bustling cities, looking for places to open shops, expanding the industries of Prince Ning Mansion substantially.

The sisters commissioned by the Commissioner are living their happy lives, each of them quite promising, and Ah Chen is satisfied deep down.

[Host, I never thought you could accomplish the task to this extent.] 997 was shocked, it wasn’t just about protecting them, but enabling them to support and protect themselves, growing strong inside and out.

Truly, is she a big shot?

The task of the first world is roughly completed. Why roughly? Because life spans decades, unpredictable changes will occur, and Ah Chen needs to guard them all her life.

Let’s not talk about these first, the natural disaster she mentioned earlier has arrived.

In the past year or two, preparations were being made, so there certainly is no shortage of food, as Beixia has stored plenty of grain and other resources are prepared as well.

But when the natural disaster truly arrived, it still invoked fear.

The drought in the north was easier to handle due to the preparations made in advance.

What is frightening is the flood in the south, which isn’t something that can be entirely prevented just with preparation. The flood is ruthless, easily submerging cities. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Everyone in Beixia is tense, and even Ye Ji, the Emperor, can’t sleep peacefully, often staying awake until dawn. Despite early precautions, casualties occur daily across the regions, which is unavoidable.

"Seventh sister is right there in Yunzhou, assigning her men to fight the flood and rescue people." As soon as Ah Chen entered Chenghua Hall, she saw Ye Ji sitting in a chair, flipping through memorials, his eyes red, with dark circles beneath them.

Although everything is within controllable bounds, early preparation has helped Beixia avoid many difficulties and accidents, yet he remains dissatisfied. However, in the face of natural disasters, people are powerless.

"Still, remind seventh sister to be careful," Ye Ji said.

Given their relationship, calling her "seventh sister" in private isn’t excessive, is it?

Ah Chen didn’t mind that, bringing over a bowl of mushroom soup: "I heard you didn’t eat much dinner, have some soup to warm your stomach."

Ye Ji, suspecting nothing, happily drank the bowl of soup.

He was just about to speak when he suddenly collapsed.

Before he fell, he saw Ah Chen’s slightly smiling and seemingly innocent face.

She looked like she couldn’t possibly poison someone, how could she appear so pure and harmless when doing something bad?

Did she really need to drug him just to make him sleep? He had only gone two days without sleep.

Truly, there was no need for drugs.

In fact, with a few coaxing words from her, he might have slept.

Ye Ji never felt that she would poison him; in fact, Ah Chen really only wanted him to sleep.

Hou Rongfa was shocked and went up to check immediately, still a bit uneasy, discovering that his Majesty was truly just asleep and not poisoned to death, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He wiped the cold sweat, somewhat regretting, why did he tell the Commandery Prince that his Majesty hadn’t closed his eyes for two days and nights?

He thought the Commandery Prince would coax the Emperor, saying a few comforting words, but didn’t expect her to drug him directly.

Too brutal.

He wondered if the Emperor would have him killed once he woke up.

Hou Rongfa went to help Ye Ji back to the bed to sleep, Ah Chen said: "Let me." Seeing Hou Rongfa’s red eyes, she knew this old eunuch hadn’t slept in two days either, "Chief Hou, take care of your health."

Hou Rongfa, moved, immediately agreed, since the Emperor was asleep, he too had to rest, otherwise, he couldn’t serve by the Emperor’s side.

Ye Ji had no idea how long he had slept, only feeling utterly comfortable, not even having a dream, it was complete deep sleep.

He suddenly opened his eyes and saw the figure sitting by his bed, his heart relaxing.

"I went through your memorials, hope you don’t mind?" Ah Chen leaned close to him, "I summarized and organized all the important matters for you, you can re-read them by following the marks."

"Shave your beard after you wake up, it doesn’t look good."

Ye Ji quickly turned over and got up, automatically ignoring her previous words, he just knew he hasn’t looked good recently.

After freshening up, Ye Ji came out full of energy.

"How is it now?"

Ah Chen looked him over: "Lost quite a bit of weight, your face has sunk in, and dark circles, makes you look a bit old."

Ye Ji clenched his fist: "..."

"I’ll have them prepare food for you."

Amidst the leisure, he said to Ah Chen: "Next time if you want me to sleep, just coax me, no need to drug."

Ah Chen seriously shook her head: "Not effective."

Indeed, drugging was necessary, or else his mind couldn’t fully relax.

Ye Ji was helpless, thinking about his state, he also understood that the drug she gave was probably calming and relaxing, and was actually a good thing.

"Then next time give me a heads-up." He sighed, recognizing she was doing it for his good.

He couldn’t refuse.

Ah Chen cautiously responded: "Okay, next time I’ll inform you in advance."

After eating, Ye Ji got busy again, and Ah Chen didn’t bother him.

She left the palace; with so much trouble in Beixia now, she also had to do something within her capability.

The natural disasters were too frequent, and there were already bad rumors outside.

She had anticipated these and had caught many of those spreading rumors, with no time to handle them for now, they were all locked up. They were fed every three days to keep them barely alive, it was impossible for them to eat fully and well.

Among them, Xiao Changsheng was also captured by her.

This character is the worst, easily causing trouble.

In the Commissioner’s lifetime, Xiao Changsheng caused Beixia a lot of problems. Eventually, Beixia, under Ye Ji’s leadership, pulled through but was left depleted.

The Ning Family’s recent tasks are to donate money and grain, assist in disaster relief, and console the victims everywhere. Because the Ning Family shops are spread throughout Beixia, Ah Chen could mobilize quickly, with the subordinates having received her prior arrangements, knowing what to do.

The few sisters outside are now capable of holding their own, having them on-site brings some stability to the people.

Neighboring small countries also suffered severe natural disasters, lacking Beixia’s disaster resistance, and, unable to fill their bellies, could only come to snatch from Beixia.

But Ye Ji was prepared, defending against these, so no major incident has occurred yet.

The Ximo side possibly not satisfied with Beixia’s condition, arranged people to provoke.

They arranged people to provoke, couldn’t Beixia do the same?

Ye Ji immediately sent people over to sow discord.

The message was that Beixia was severely stricken, while Ximo was less affected, and since they couldn’t loot Beixia, why not find an opportunity to get food from Ximo. Not only that, he also led them to Xiao Changsheng’s trail.

Although Xiao Changsheng was imprisoned by Ah Chen, his network was still there, and those contacts, once approached, could easily stir up trouble.

Of course, he would arrange to assist them.

Ah Chen gave him a mask, the very likeness of Xiao Changsheng’s face, enough to pass for the real one.

Over the years, he had thoroughly grasped Xiao Changsheng’s situation. When Ah Chen gave him that mask, he immediately had people imitate Xiao Changsheng’s every move.

Locked in the dungeon, Xiao Changsheng couldn’t have imagined there was another Xiao Changsheng outside raising storms, continuously moving Ximo’s resources to those disaster-stricken small countries.

Moreover, this Xiao Changsheng had a unique identity as well, the nephew of the Ximo Dynasty’s Emperor.

Thus, many actions were truly effortless.
