Su Chenyu found a comfortable position in Yan Qing's arms and lay down: "Yan Qing, I haven't been to the South Border yet. You are familiar with this place, and we can't be apart for a while. Can you take me around, please?"
䀱䋢 Yanqing has been here for several years, so he is naturally familiar with it: "Okay."
After hearing Yan Qing's agreement, Su Chenyu couldn't lie down any longer and immediately sat up: "Then let's get up quickly."
䀱䋢 Yanqing asked: "Are you going to be a hands-off boss and leave everything to Xingye?"
Su Chenyu nodded and said as a matter of course: "I made him the King of the Southern Territory, I can't expect him to do everything by himself, right? Besides, he will be the one managing the Southern Territory in the future, so it's not appropriate for me to interfere too much."
䀱䋢 Yanqing laughed: "Your logic is right no matter how you put it."
For the next two months, Su Chenyu really let go and traveled around the southern border accompanied by 䀱䋢 Yanqing.
During this play experience, Su Chenyu discovered that under Xingye's leadership, the lives of the people in the southern border had returned to their original state.
Originally, after knowing that there was no Saint Maiden in the southern border, many subjects openly opposed it. As for those old ministers, Xingye was ruthless and killed them one by one to set an example, thus suppressing the voices of opposition from other officials.
What's more, Xingye took the opportunity to implicate several senior officials and robbed their homes. The wealth accumulated was simply terrifying. As a result, all officials felt insecure, fearing that they would also be caught by Xingye.
In this way, the original officials in the southern border did not dare to cause trouble again.
The officials who were sent from the capital of Dayu to garrison the southern border, with the assistance of Xingye, also took control of the important affairs in various parts of the southern border, and nothing could be leaked.
As for the surname Qi, Xingye adopted a combination of leniency and severity.
What the He clan wanted most was to live and work in peace and contentment, and the Saint was dispensable to them. So as long as Xingye managed the people well, the He clan's complaints would naturally subside.
Therefore, Xingye only killed a few of the most troublesome people at the beginning, and then promoted various new laws. With the money earned by those families and the support of officials, the reform of the southern border went smoothly.
After Su Chenyu and Xiao Yanqing finished their tour, when they returned, they were faced with a stable situation.
"The winter scenery in the southern border is unique. Your Majesty must have enjoyed the trip very much, right?" Xingye welcomed Su Chenyu and Su Yanqing to the mansion.
The former Nanyue Imperial Palace no longer exists. Now there is only the Southern Border Palace, which also indicates that the era of Nanyue has completely ended.
Su Chenyu nodded: "I have seen a lot along the way. You, the King of the Southern Territory, have done a good job."
"The ministers sent by Your Majesty to the Southern Territory have also helped a lot. The current situation in the Southern Territory is also thanks to Your Majesty." When Xingye said this, it was not a compliment. The officials sent by the capital of Dayu were all clear-headed and knowledgeable people.
"Xingye, now that the situation in the southern border has been stabilized, I will leave the southern border in a few days. From now on, I will leave this place to you."
"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will do my best." Xingye brought Su Chenyu and 䀱䋢 Yanqing into the hall. "Handan asked the kitchen to prepare many dishes with southern characteristics. Your Majesty, please try them."
Handan finally chose to stay in the Southern Border Palace, and is now the palace's steward.
She was originally a beggar on the street, and was taken away by Jinhua out of kindness. Now that she was asked to leave, she really didn't know where to go for a moment.
Handan knew that Jinhuan was most concerned about her brother Xingye, so she simply stayed in the palace to take care of Xingye on behalf of Jinhuan, which could be regarded as repaying Jinhuan for her care over the years.
Looking at Handan again, Su Chenyu found that she looked more like a lively person than before: "Handan, if you have the chance in the future, go and look around."
Handan nodded and said, "I will go out and take a look when I feel tired one day."
Right now, Handan doesn't have the courage to travel around the world alone, but she believes that one day she will use her eyes to see places outside the southern border for Jinhua...
