Chapter 309 Understanding the People's Feelings

Feng Liu and Feng Qi followed closely behind, and seeing their master running all the way with the princess, they could basically conclude that he was going to plot against the princess again this time.

But they were very confused as to why the master didn't inform them in advance so that they could cooperate.

But now, seeing that their master had no intention of saying anything, they could only act according to circumstances.

The three horses galloped all the way and soon left the Far North. As soon as they stepped out of the Far North, they felt a lot warmer, and it was already a bit like March.

Even Qin Chuchu, who was wearing a scarf, felt wrapped in warmth.

Looking at the trees in the distance that have turned green, I feel very happy.

"Your Majesty, look at the trees on that mountain. They've all turned green."

She pointed at the light green trees on the mountain. She didn't expect that the temperature would differ so much after walking such a long distance.

Although I didn't get close, I could tell from the green color of the trees that they had sprouted.

Unlike the trees on the mountains in the far north, which are still bare.

Green is pleasing to the eyes to begin with, and now I feel even better looking at it. I can't sit still anymore.

"Your Majesty, may I go down and take a look?"

The weather is so warm and the scenery here is so beautiful, it would be a shame not to go for a spring outing.

Han Muchen looked at the bare forest and the endless wilderness nearby, and did not slow down the horse.

"Go a little further!"

"No! I'll just get down!" Qin Chuchu also got angry. As she spoke, she pretended to jump down, but her waist was held tightly by the man.

"It gets warmer the further you go, and there are more people there!"

The man pointed ahead. They had just walked a short distance from the far north and there wasn't even a single house. If they wanted to understand the drought situation, they had to go a little further.

If we delay here for too long, this trip will be meaningless.

Qin Chuchu, who was still struggling, immediately became obedient after hearing this.

"Okay!" She sat up straight again.

If it is warmer up ahead, I think the scenery will be much better, and it will be more fun to play there.

Seeing that the stupid woman had become obedient, the man quickened his pace and ran for half an hour before arriving at Dongping Town, the nearest town to Jibei.

It is called a town, but due to the long-term population loss, it is not much different in size from a village in other places, with only about a hundred households.

Although the population is small, the atmosphere of life is obvious.

Looking at the mud-brick houses in the distance, there was occasionally smoke coming out of a few chimneys.

"Your Majesty, look, there are so many people there."

Qin Chuchu excitedly pointed at the endless stream of people on the distant hillside.

Although it is not densely packed, it is already quite a lot considering the spaciousness here.

There were groups of three or five people on the hillside, each holding a tool in their hands, either a basket or a small shovel. They walked and looked with their heads down, and it was obvious that they were digging wild vegetables.

In her previous life, Qin Chuchu also dug wild vegetables with her grandmother. It was also in early spring. She brought some delicious food and stayed in the mountains with her grandmother for a whole day. She was so happy.

At this moment, seeing those people digging wild vegetables, it suddenly brought back beautiful memories and I couldn't sit still.

"Your Majesty, I want to dig wild vegetables with them!"

She pointed at the people digging vegetables on the mountain and was already rubbing her hands in anticipation.

The man followed her gaze, looked at those people, and then looked in the direction ahead.

"Walk a little further!"

After saying that, he quickened his pace and walked forward without waiting for the stupid woman to speak.

Qin Chuchu pouted, obviously a little unhappy.

But it was only for a moment before his attention was drawn to the scene before him.

The further we walked, the temperature became noticeably warmer, and even the trees on the mountain began to sprout new leaves.

Even the ground was covered with a layer of green, obviously wild grass and vegetables had grown there.

And the further you go, the more crowded the place becomes, so much so that you can see more and more people digging wild vegetables on the mountain.

"Wang... um..." Qin Chuchu was about to speak anxiously when the man covered her mouth.

When she met the man's warning eyes, she realized that she had almost let the cat out of the bag.

"Husband, I want to go downstairs for a walk!"

She looked at the man and quickly changed her words, then pointed at the people digging wild vegetables on the hillside.

She was eager to join in. With such nice weather and environment, it would be boring to just ride horses all the time.

Han Muchen looked at the surrounding environment, stopped after a moment of hesitation, and picked up Qin Chuchu.

As soon as her feet touched the ground, Qin Chuchu rushed up the mountain, so fast that it seemed as if she was afraid that she would miss the chance to dig up wild vegetables if she was too late.

The man threw the horse reins to Feng Qi and hurriedly followed.

Qin Chuchu ran up the mountain at full speed. Not long after climbing, she saw an old man and several children sitting in front of her.

From a distance, I saw a man with his head wrapped tightly running towards me.

The children were so scared that they stood up and hid behind their grandmother.

The old lady also stood up with a wary look on her face, protecting the children tightly behind her.

“…………”

This person must be a flower boy!

Otherwise, in such a warm day, who would wrap himself up so tightly? It was obvious that he was afraid of being seen.

He quickly protected the children behind him to prevent them from being taken away by her.

When Qin Chuchu came over, she saw the old woman in front of her staring at her as if she was guarding against a thief, and even the children behind her were staring at her with fear.

"Grandma, what are you doing?"

Qin Chuchu said this while pointing to the baskets and shovels they were holding.

"Are you digging wild vegetables? Can you take me with you?"

As she spoke, she moved forward, scaring the people in front of her so much that they kept backing away.

Especially the old lady, who stared at her warily. From the sound of her voice, she sounded like a girl. Why did she do such a harmful thing?

“…………” Qin Chuchu frowned.

She stared straight at the family in front of her. She didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she always felt that the way they looked at her was not very friendly, and seemed very defensive.

She was a weak woman and posed no threat to them. She really couldn't understand why they looked at her like that.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, his eyes lit up and he quickly waved to the people following him.

"Stay away. Don't you see that you've scared the mother-in-law and the children?"

No wonder they were so scared when they saw me, with several grown men following me. If it were me, I would probably be very alert too.

“…………”Feng Liu.

“…………”Feng Qi.

The two looked at each other, then lowered their eyes to look at their own clothes, which were as simple as they could be.

They looked up again and saw that the master was dressed the same as them, just like a farmer, so there was nothing scary about him.

Finally, both of them looked at Qin Chuchu again, looking at her tightly wrapped head with a hint of disgust in their eyes.

"Madam, please take off your scarf!"
