Chapter 079 zeze~~~

At noon, 10,000 garrison troops arrived at the mine and immediately started digging the canal. All the imperial guards withdrew to rest.

The flood discharge ditch approved by the Tiangongsi is seven feet wide at the bottom, two feet wide at the top, and one foot deep, with a total length of about fifteen miles.

The laborers in Chiyan County have been digging for more than half a month and have completed about one-third of the progress.

If another 10,000 soldiers were deployed and dug day and night, the project would be completed in three days.

Qin Zhaoyue heard the calls and clanging sounds from a long distance away as the carriage drove into the center of the camp.

Sui Mo held an umbrella, supported by Tao Yao, and behind him followed Mo Er, who had a round face, and Mo San, who had softer facial lines.

Each of them was carrying a large lunch box, and they looked quite exhausted.

"Eldest sister, I'm here!"

The tone of his voice was filled with an innocent joy that was completely out of tune with the atmosphere of the entire mine.

When I opened the tent curtain, I saw Qin Zhaoqiong sitting there eating a piece of bread. It was noon, so it was just in time.

She had been in the army for a long time, eating and sleeping with the soldiers, and she was never picky, as long as she could fill her stomach.

But Qin Zhaoyue frowned, put her hands on her hips and immediately complained: "Eldest sister, how can you eat this?"

"Uh..." Qin Zhaoqiong was stunned and answered subconsciously: "It's a hot baked pancake. It tastes pretty good."

"Not bad, hurry up, sister brought you some delicious food."

A large food box was brought up, containing roasted lamb, bitter melon stuffed with meat, pickled beans and two side dishes of pickled fern roots.

It’s not rich, but it’s large in quantity.

Even Qin Zhaoyue looked disgusted, "This shabby place can only offer this little food."

Qin Zhaoqiong felt warm in her heart, shook her head and laughed, "It's already very good."

She didn't really throw away the pancake, but instead put some roasted lamb on it, added some side dishes, rolled it up and started eating it.

The crust of the freshly baked pancake is slightly crispy, with the unique aroma of roasted lamb, and the crispy and refreshing side dishes make your mouth full of fragrance after one bite.

This is a common way of eating in the north. It is not as exquisite as the individual dishes, but it is very comfortable to chew on it in big mouthfuls.

"Eldest sister, you are too rough..."

Qin Zhaoqiong quickly asked her to sit down beside him. "Sixth sister, you don't understand. This is how people often eat in the north. You can wrap anything in a pancake. It has a unique flavor."

Qin Zhaoyue almost rolled his eyes, but managed to hold it back.

She doesn't understand? Lamb kebab wraps, how could that thing not be delicious? She almost swallowed her saliva!

But she was a princess who had just left the capital for the first time. She usually loved fine food and could not show her greed.

As they were talking, the curtain opened and Meng Jian rushed in.

He was "injured" and rested in the tent all night, which made him very bored.

"Your Highness, Your Sixth Prince." After clasping his fists and bowing, his eyes were fixed on the dishes on the table.

"Oh, our great hero has a really good nose. He came right here just by smelling the food."

Meng Jian was ashamed, but after hearing the words "great hero" and "great hero" so many times, he was somewhat used to it.

When I heard that the Sixth Prince was coming to deliver food, I ran over excitedly with a little anticipation in my heart.

Qin Zhaoyue saw his undisguised expectation, waved his hand, and brought up the second food box, which contained the same dishes.

"This...is this for me?"

"No, I feed the dog."

Meng Jian: ...

Qin Zhaoqiong helplessly patted her sister's hand. It was obviously a good thing, but that mouth...

"Commander Meng hasn't eaten yet, right? Sit down and eat something."

"Then I'd rather obey than be disrespectful."

Meng Jian sat down, and before he even started eating, the corners of his mouth started to grin.

What to eat is secondary. The key is that the Sixth Prince is thinking about him and brought him a portion.

"Mm, delicious! Your Highness the Sixth Prince put a lot of effort into it."

As soon as he took a bite of roasted lamb, he couldn't wait to express his joy.

This time Qin Zhaoyue couldn't help it and rolled his eyes.

The meal was prepared by the cook and the food box was carried by the maid. It has nothing to do with her heart. I really have no words to praise her.

While they were enjoying their meal, they heard footsteps outside the tent.

They all had cultivation and were sharp-eyed and sharp-eared. Meng Jian gave them a look and they all understood who was coming.

Today, Yinzhe has found an opportunity to inform them of the intelligence he obtained and has confirmed the identity of the county magistrate.

"Sister~" Qin Zhaoyue cried out, and immediately took the arm of the eldest princess beside her.

"Zhaoyue has been a great help this time and gave the doctor a brilliant idea. How are you going to reward Zhaoyue?"

Qin Zhaoqiong suddenly shuddered and goose bumps appeared on his arms.

Sixth sister, this... is too sweet.

The county magistrate and the chief clerk, who had just walked out of the tent, stopped.

Zhou Yanqing glanced at the person beside him and saw the chief clerk shaking his head slightly.

He suggested using maggots. He had already consulted the doctor and they might be of some use, but he didn't have the conditions for that right now.

Zhou Yanqing understood that this was an exaggeration to seek credit.

They were well-informed and were secretly surprised to hear that the Sixth Princess had saved the lives of many patients in Mingyan County.

Now it seems that is not the case at all.

"Sister, the Duke of Zheng's mansion has a farm outside the capital. I heard the hot springs there are very good, and that's what I want.

Please, sister~~~sister~~~"

Qin Zhaoqiong was shaken so hard that half of her body felt numb.

I gradually lost myself in the voices of "sister", and there was only one thought in my mind: give it to her, give it all to her!

Meng Jian on the opposite side was stunned and didn't even realize that the mutton he was holding had fallen to the ground.

Qin Zhaoqiong swallowed her saliva. She knew it was just acting, but it was really hard to refuse a sixth sister like this...

"Okay~" Her tone was noticeably softer. "Sister will help you get it. If all else fails, I can just trade the farm for Duke Zheng."

"Thank you, sister~ You are the best~"

…

Qin Zhaoyue didn't delay too long. After a cup of tea, he got up and left, leaving behind two people who obviously had no appetite.

As soon as the curtain was opened, the county magistrate and the chief clerk outside the door hurriedly saluted and called him "Sixth Prince".

Qin Zhaoyue glanced at him lightly, raised his head slightly, made a "hmm" sound through his nose, and walked straight past without stopping.

In front of the eldest princess's tent, the two naturally did not dare to show any dissatisfaction, but just thought in their hearts that the Sixth Princess was indeed worthy of her reputation.

After the carriage had traveled a long way, Sui Mo on the carriage silently gave a thumbs up.

I learned this from the Sixth Princess, and it means praise.

Originally, Xuanjiwei lacked high-end combat power, so they also sent a fourth-grade master to the mine.

What's more, Qin Zhaoyue had taken in another maid, Jiang Mingyuan. Even after she had disguised herself, the group of people hiding in Chiyan County still felt completely at ease, so this little performance took place.

Qin Zhaoyue pressed his palm downwards, his expression extremely calm.

Let a salted fish play a salted fish, playing its true self, okay? It's not difficult at all...
