"If women don't have menstruation, how can they give birth to children and have children? When there is a flood, women suffer in secret. The dirty water corrodes their bodies. If they are not careful, their lives may be in danger..." Wen Ning frowned and glanced at everyone present. He looked quite intimidating without even being angry.

"Since we set up camp, I've noticed that almost all of the people who take care of the tents, cook, fetch water, and burn firewood for cooking are women. Now I've only given women such a small thing, but you've reacted so strongly. Aren't the things they've done enough for you to help them get one more thing?"

After Wen Ning finished speaking, she heard a woman in the crowd speak up, "That's right, you men, which one of you didn't grow up drinking your mother's milk? Why are you all so heartless? It's just the menstrual period, it's poking your lungs! You can't even speak a human language!"

"Everyone, remember the man who just spoke. Fathers and mothers, take a look and see who in this area dares to marry such a man. Who dares to marry their daughter to such a thing!"

The man's face turned pale. He had been standing at the front of the team, but the men in front of him looked down on him and pushed him out of the team. The other women also rolled their eyes at him secretly. The man really couldn't stand it anymore and ran away in shame.

After that, the scene returned to its original peace and tranquility. Everyone lined up in an orderly manner to receive their things. Those who had daughters at home would receive an extra menstrual item to take back with them, and they expressed their gratitude to the officers and soldiers. There was no one who would come here to register without marrying or having children.

Wen Ning then turned around and looked at the woman with tears on her face, and smiled slowly, "It's okay, they won't dare to laugh at you anymore."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" The woman knelt down in front of her. Wen Ning quickly helped her up and said softly, "Don't worry. If you can't use it, I have more here. Just come and ask for it."

"Thank you, Your Highness, the Crown Princess. Thank you, Your Highness, the Crown Princess! Your Highness, the Crown Princess is the best woman in the world!"

The woman thanked him repeatedly, her face full of gratitude.

When Wen Ning heard this, his expression became heavy instead. Looking at the woman's receding back, he thought to himself that he had only mentioned it to Xiao Yunci and incidentally, yet he became the "best woman" in their eyes, which showed that in the past very few people could consider their position.

She looked at the officials who were standing in a group and whispering. They seemed to be discussing how the Crown Princess handled the chaos. When they saw Wen Ning looking at them, they immediately pretended nothing had happened and dispersed.

Wen Ning sighed slowly.

That night, Xiao Yunci came back very late. The moon was hanging on the branches. She was already resting in the tent. When she heard the noise, she saw Xiao Yunci slowly entering the tent on the moonlight. In the moonlight, his figure looked more slender and handsome than usual. The candlelight in the tent slowly illuminated his angular face, making it even more delicate.

Wen Ning made eye contact with him and discovered that the way he looked at her seemed to be filled with a myriad of emotions.

Wen Ning immediately got out of bed to greet him.

"No need to serve, just take a good rest, my beloved." Xiao Yunci said with a smile.

Wen Ning heard a hint of joking in his voice and couldn't help but guess that what happened during the day had reached his ears.
