"Oh, Your Highness, do you still remember Little Bell? Her eyes have been healed, and she can see now."
Qin Yue Zhao's eyes lit up.
"Oh, Little Bell's eyes are better?"
Xiao Lingdang was an orphan that Qin Yuezhao rescued when she fought alongside her grandfather in the southern border region. During that battle, enemy soldiers cruelly murdered her parents and poisoned her eyes.
Chen Wan'er nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, she came to see me off before I left for the campaign. She said that when she grows up, she wants to be a female soldier like you and go to war with you."
"Follow me on a campaign?" Qin Yue Zhao gave a wry smile. "In a prosperous era, who would enjoy galloping across battlefields, enduring wind and rain?"
Chen Wan'er's smile froze for a moment.
Yes, Her Highness is only in her early twenties and is a woman of exceptional talent. If this were a prosperous era, she would have already found a suitable husband and be a devoted wife and mother.
Qin Yue Zhao sighed and asked, "How is the situation in the wounded and sick camp? Have any soldiers died in the past two days?"
Chen Wan'er frowned.
"The soldiers who died last time were given a proper burial by General Huo's arrangements. In the last two days... more than a hundred more have died. The gods say they will send medicine again, but we don't know when..."
Just then, Uncle Chen arrived with a dozen or so members of the Huo family army.
"Your Highness, as you instructed, this old servant had the gold and silver cleaned, but all the hairpins and jewelry were burned. Since they were all made of gold and silver, this old servant felt it would be a waste to throw them away, so I brought them along as well."
Qin Yue Zhao glanced at the long line of horse-drawn carriages.
"Uncle Chen, could you please have them deliver the items to the warehouse?"
Uncle Chen nodded.
After all the boxes were moved into the warehouse, Qin Yue Zhao said to Chen Wan'er, "Go and bring the treasure basin over. We will pass the gold and silver to the gods so that they can send us medicine sooner."
Chen Wan'er nodded.
To everyone's surprise, she quickly ran back, still holding the papers that Chu Xiao had sent her.
"Princess Yue Zhao, the gods say the vaccine has arrived and they want you to find a dry and cool place!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yuezhao's eyes lit up, and she quickly wrote back on the note:
"Thank you, God. Yue Zhao is in the warehouse and is preparing to give the gold and silver to the God."
Chu Xiao: "Okay, then I'll send the vaccine to you first."
Qin Yue Zhao was directing Chen Wan'er to stand further away when she saw countless aluminum alloy boxes falling from the sky.
They were neatly arranged on the open ground, filling the corner of the warehouse completely.
Chen Wan'er was so excited that she danced around, touching and looking at everything, but she couldn't help but worry.
"Your Highness, is there anything wrong with the medicine sent by the gods this time?"
Qin Yue Zhao's face darkened. Although she was worried, she pursed her lips when she thought of how the god, despite being seriously injured, still descended to the cave to save her.
“I believe in God. I quickly sent people to deliver these vaccines to the military camp and then had people pour all the gold and silver into the treasure bowl.”
As soon as these words were spoken, an impatient voice came from outside the warehouse, and Ling Tianen walked in with a smile on his face.
"No need to call anyone, I'm right here, let me handle this!"
Qin Yue Zhao was startled by his voice.
"Ling Tianen, weren't you supposed to stay at the manor to take care of your wife and children? Why are you here?"
Ling Tianen handed the bird's nest in his hand to her.
"It's like this, the military camp said that the Huo family army pulled back 3,800 enemy warhorses in yesterday's battle, and also brought back several hundred dead horses, which they plan to marinate and make into roasted horse meat to reward the soldiers. So I came to report the situation to Your Highness, and also to deliver some bird's nest."
"Giving you bird's nest?" Qin Yue Zhao looked at the bird's nest bowl in his hand.
The light blue porcelain cup with carved begonia flowers on the rim and inlaid with rubies in the center gives it a dazzling and extravagant appearance from afar.
Isn't this exactly what the gods wanted?
