Chapter 118 Going Up the Mountain



She took a few deep breaths, smiled, and looked at the adults with curiosity, asking:

"Lord Wang? Lord Gu? What happened to you? Why do you look like refugees? Tell me, who bullied you? Tell this princess, and this princess will stand up for you. You are all meritorious officials sent by the emperor to build the country. How can you let anyone bully you?"

"Moreover, look, the important task of building the country is entrusted to you. The Emperor and I are very confident in you. What does this mean? It means that you are the Emperor's most trusted ministers! You will be able to become prime ministers in the future. The hardships you endure now will be the light of the future!"

"My lords, don't you agree? I have already written to the Emperor to report your merits. When we return to the capital, the Emperor will surely reward you accordingly."

Lin Yuxin talked on and on, not letting the adults say a word. She flattered them so much that they couldn't say anything.

In addition, she said she had already spoken to the Emperor about the situation, and if they continued to cause trouble, she could file another complaint that night.

The adults exchanged glances. Wang Feng gritted his teeth, forced a very awkward smile, and said:

"Your Highness is too kind. These are all matters of our duty. We will certainly handle them well and contribute to the North City. Your Highness is still having your meal, so we will take our leave now."

After Wang Feng finished speaking, he turned around and left. The others, seeing that their leader had left, quickly bowed and left as well.

The group stood outside the door for a while before realizing why they had come to see Lin Yuxin.

"Lord Wang? We're just leaving like this? Don't we still have to plant trees tomorrow?"

Liu Hongbo stared blankly at the adults around him. It felt like he had just gone in and was already out. He hadn't said a word.

"This princess's words are truly remarkable; we misjudged her before!"

Gu Qing sighed and said.

“I don’t want to plant trees anymore. My hands are blistered and my soles are covered in bloody holes. The medicine I’ve applied doesn’t help. I didn’t come here to do this kind of farm work.”

Shao Chongshan frowned and said angrily.

"If you're so capable, why don't you go in and talk? Don't forget, she just said she could complain to the Emperor at any time. Do you think she'll put in a good word for you?"

Wang Feng glanced at him and said coldly, he had seen the woman's sharp tongue today, but there was nothing they could do to her now, so they could only endure it.

"That woman is so cruel. We didn't do anything to her, could she not give us a different job? This kind of tree work is too tiring. It would be better to just give us food in the city."

Lu Feng pouted and complained.

"Alright, everyone go back and rest. We still have to go out and plant trees tomorrow!"

With his dark, tanned face, Wang Feng was completely different from his former pretty boy self, and his speech carried a strong masculine air.

Once he returns to the capital, his former lovers probably won't even recognize him.

Since Lord Wang had spoken, the group had no choice but to swallow their complaints and obediently go out to plant trees tomorrow.

After they all left, Lin Yuxin called to Zhao Er to open all the windows to let in some fresh air. Once the air was much better, she asked:

"Hahaha, Zhao Yi's got some skills! He actually managed to get these officials into such a state? Not bad, not bad!"

[Hahaha! If he goes back to the capital, will Wang Feng's former lovers still rekindle their romances? Will Shao Chongshan's mother throw him out too? I can't wait!]

After Lin Yuxin finished laughing, she realized what was happening and asked:

Where is Zhao Yi?

“Princess, Zhao Yi has to check the saplings to be planted tomorrow every day when he comes back. He should be in the backyard now.”

Zhao Er answered respectfully.

"Alright, he's tired too. Let him rest early after he's done with his work! Have these officials caused any trouble lately?"

Lin Yuxin nodded and then asked.

"There were no strange incidents, but a few days ago they were so tired that they didn't want to go. Zhao Yi used force to suppress them, so they had no choice but to go along. However, Zhao Yi kept the adults' physical strength under control and didn't let them collapse."

Zhao Er patiently explained the situation of these officials.

"Alright, as long as Zhao Yi knows what to do, as long as he doesn't fall down, let him do whatever he wants. That way, these officials won't have the energy to interfere in front of her!"

Lin Yuxin nodded, relieved. If the adults got sick from exhaustion, it would be difficult to explain when they got back!

But thinking back to the way those adults looked earlier, it was really funny. They probably cursed her to death in their hearts, but they still had to smile and thank her. No matter whose people they were working for, they all had to fawn over her when they were in her presence.

After dinner, Lin Yuxin went to check on Xiao Hao before going back to her room. These past few days, Xiao Hao had been distributing food with Zhao Er every day, and he was exhausted. Every day when he came back, he didn't even talk to her. He would just go to sleep after dinner.

When Lin Yuxin came in, she saw Xiao Hao eating with his head drooping, as if he could fall asleep on the table at any moment.

Lin Yuxin quietly sat down next to him. Seeing that his head was about to fall off, she quickly reached out and stretched his head to prevent it from hitting the table.

Xiao Hao fell asleep like that. Helpless, Lin Yuxin had no choice but to pick him up, put him back on the bed, and cover him with the blanket.

From the first day when Xiao Hao was exhausted and Zhao Er carried him back, Lin Yuxin would feed Xiao Hao a little bit of water mixed with fairy dew every morning.

These past few days, Xiao Hao's body has clearly been able to withstand this level of exertion.

Lin Yuxin looked at him with pity for a few moments before getting up and leaving.

Back in her room, Lin Yuxin went straight into her spatial dimension and began her planting business.
