Ning Xi'er walked with the villagers for more than an hour, and only found a few plants.
On average, each family doesn't even get one plant.
No wonder everyone is always hungry.
Looking at the plant in her hand, with its well-developed root system, even without extensive knowledge of plants, Ning Xi'er could deduce...
It has a well-developed root system, which facilitates the absorption of water and soil.
Without leaves, photosynthesis is reduced, which helps retain moisture better.
This plant, under normal circumstances, should be able to grow quite tall...
Unfortunately, everyone was short of food and clothing, and whenever they were spotted, the villagers would pick them...
Over time, it becomes even harder for them to grow up.
Ning Xi'er also had a plan in mind regarding its function...
We still need to use space instruments to analyze and determine the situation.
With the appointed time with Xie Zhun and Wei Xunfang fast approaching, Ning Xi'er hurried back...
Under normal circumstances, the villagers would have to walk another half hour to get there...
Worried about Ning Xi'er's safety, they returned together.
Ning Xi'er had Xingming deliver some food to the villagers' homes.
After releasing Xie Zhun from the spatial realm, Xie Zhun was given spiritual spring water to rest for a while...
As luck would have it, Wei Xunfang returned with Qin Yuan and the village chief.
Even for his own mentor, Xie Zhun wouldn't dare to give the spiritual spring liquid given to him by Ning Xi'er to Wei Xunfang without her permission...
Seeing his self-aware demeanor, Ning Xi'er poured three more cups and personally served them to the village chief...
He gestured to Qin Yuan with his eyes, telling him to hold the glass and drink it himself.
Wei Xunfang is still the least popular one, but at least he gets to drink, which shows how generous Ning Xi'er is!
After drinking the spiritual spring liquid, the village chief felt his fatigue vanish instantly...
Seeing that they had something to discuss, I made an excuse and left on my own.
After the village chief left, Qin Yuan closed the gate tightly and stood guard to the side.
Wei Xunfang sat to the left of Xie Zhun, facing Ning Xi'er.
Wei Xunfang got straight to the point, "Xue Lin has already taken office, and his actions are faster than I expected."
Xie Zhun nodded, not giving a quick comment.
Ning Xi'er looked at Qin Yuan and added, "During my time in Yongning, I fought alongside Xue Lin, so it's believable!"
She was not someone who gave up easily. The reason Xue Lin was able to gain her approval was because the two of them had gone through many trials together.
A person who prioritizes the lives of ordinary people over his own and his family's safety, disregards fame and fortune, and doesn't care about his career advancement, is more trustworthy than many others.
Qin Yuan nodded in agreement without pausing at all.
Wei Xunfang nodded slightly upon seeing their stance.
"I visited Xue Lin to test the waters, but to my surprise, he knew quite a bit about my and Qin Yuan's identities..."
Indeed, very capable!
Upon hearing this, Ning Xi'er immediately smiled.
He was even happier than if he had been praised himself.
Xie Zhun and Wei Xunfang both glanced at each other slightly.
In Xie Zhun's eyes, besides gentleness, there was also a hint of pride.
Xie Zhun rarely spoke, "It seems he really is here to help!"
Therefore, some preparatory work was done in advance.
According to Ning Xi'er's account, Xue Lin was fearless in the face of danger during the fight against the plague...
Even when facing fear alone, he did not lose his composure, proving himself capable of undertaking great responsibilities.
After listening to Ning Xi'er's explanation, it became clear that his arrangements, made without her prompting, demonstrated a very clear thinking, proving him to be a truly capable person.
Wei Xunfang appeared more at ease, no longer as wary and defensive towards Ning Xi'er as before, and spoke frankly, "Our people are discussing this with Lord Xue..."
"Hand it over to him, and he will arrange for it to be brought in gradually within seven days at the latest..."
Xie Zhun glanced at Ning Xi'er and, without the slightest hesitation, said, "Yes."
Although it's unclear who "their people" were, as Wei Xunfang mentioned, there's a feeling...
These people were of paramount importance to Xie Zhun and Wei Xunfang.
That one glance, seemingly indifferent, confirmed Ning Xi'er's judgment, placing the bet on Xue Lin.
Ning Xi'er understood in her heart, but said nothing.
Perhaps she can't always see people clearly, but Xue Lin will definitely not let them down.
Qin Yuan glanced around the window and added the following information:
"According to Lord Xue's intelligence, the left and right military supervisors of the desolate region will arrive in the next few days."
Qin Yuan snorted lightly, his expression full of disdain.
"Who would have thought that the position of guarding exiled prisoners in this harsh, cold place would become such a coveted job..."
Qin Yuan implied that the candidate had not been decided yet and could change at any time.
Qin Yuan revealed, "Based on the information we have so far, several forces are vying for power..."
The Crown Prince, the Second Prince, the Third Prince, General Shen Tuo, and...
Qin Yuan looked at Ning Xi'er, his voice calm and even:
"Marquis of Dingyuan..."
For Ning Xi'er's sake, Ning Wei's name wasn't mentioned directly...
Ning Xi'er was not surprised at all.
But Qin Yuan didn't finish speaking; he continued:
"And General Ning..."
Furthermore, there seem to be other forces. It's just that their factions are not yet apparent...
