"The emperor sent them directly for training. After they came back, they have been following him for many years. Wang Yu is always by his side on standby. Leng Han is good at making medicine, but he will also take turns with Wang Yu."
"Shui Mei was sent to the Zhaixing Tower. Lie Yan volunteered to go to the northern border because he knew the art of poisoning snakes. Hei Ling is in Qi State, and Bai Teng is in Zhao State."
Li Xiaochen patiently explained to him about his subordinates.
Lin Yuxin understood after hearing this and nodded.
[I didn't expect that there were so many people around Li Xiaochen? But it seems that the book said that after Li Xiaochen's death, the Three Kingdoms did have turmoil, but it didn't cause any big splashes. I guess Wang Yu and his group wanted to take over, but failed. ]
[However, this time, Li Xiaochen is in much better shape. With her around, the things in the book shouldn't happen.]
Li Xiaochen's eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at Lin Yuxin tenderly. He thought Yuxin was thinking about him!
"Okay, it's still early. I still have to distribute the things they brought today. I have to start being busy again tomorrow."
Lin Yuxin came back to her senses and said to Li Xiaochen.
"Okay, take care of yourself. If you can't handle it, tell the king."
Li Xiaochen also nodded. He knew that now was not the time to talk about love. Then he said something to Lin Yuxin and got up to take care of his business.
As the regent, he still had a lot of things to do, including the protection of North City, safety issues, the fate of the people, the situation of the disaster victims, the number of people, the current disaster situation in North City, etc. He had to deal with all of them.
He was on an inspection trip outside some time ago and discovered many problems that needed to be dealt with and reported to the emperor.
I was busy looking for Yuxin yesterday, and I have been busy since I came back.
Now he has to go about his business.
When Li Xiaochen brought Wang Yu back to his room, he saw Shui Mei standing at the door waiting.
Li Xiaochen ignored him and walked in.
Shui Mei didn't feel bored, but said in a lewd tone:
"Your Highness, Concubine Xiao has returned to the palace!"
Li Xiaochen finally raised his eyes to look at him, frowning, and asked:
"Why did she come back?"
"I guess he knows his son is a pauper, so he comes back to help!"
Wang Yu only thought of this.
"Watch her and see what she's going to do."
Li Xiaochen thought about it and said in a deep voice.
"yes!"
Wang Yu responded.
…
After Li Xiaochen left, Lin Yuxin took Xueying and Shandao with them, and led a team to count the things they brought from the capital this time.
The villagers also brought food, seeds, and medicinal materials, which surprised Lin Yuxin.
Before, the herbs she used were all grown in her space, and she lied that they were picked in the mountains and given to the people. But it was okay, they were all common medicines for colds and heatstroke.
The temperature in the North City is too high. If Lin Yuxin didn't have the space and had to go there to work every night, she would have probably been unable to bear it.
Xiaohao has been drinking her fairy dew water frequently during this period, which has improved his physical condition a lot, so he can still bear this little bit of calories.
By the time we finished counting the supplies, it was already night, and my brother, fourth uncle and the others had all rested and got up.
Zhao Yi and Zhao 괗 and their men also came back. Zhao 괗 was in the provincial capital, so he came back after distributing food.
Zhao Yi was a little far away. He brought a few adults and his men to plant trees and had already reached Quyan County. Quyan County was the closest to the north and was the first place to experience water shortage. The terrain there was higher.
They went out early and returned late every day these days, and it took more than an hour to get there.
It was already after dinner when I came back.
But today they came back very late, and everyone looked unhappy, even the adults no longer had the attitude of glaring at Lin Yuxin every time they came back.
Lin Yuxin was surprised and asked Zhao Yi.
"Zhao Yi, why are you back so early today?"
"My lord, the matter in Quyan County has been resolved!"
Zhao Yiyi said with a serious face.
"What's going on? Tell me!"
Lin Yuxin immediately said in a lustful tone.
"Today, when my subordinates went to Quyan County to plant trees, they found that many people in the villages below Quyan County were not in good spirits. Everyone was listless, with a bitter look on their faces, exuding a foul odor, and walking with stiff bones. When my subordinates spoke to them, they all responded slowly."
"I feel something is not right. I will come back to report if I don't do anything more today."
Zhao Yi reported truthfully.
The adults around us all had suspicious looks on their faces. There was something weird about those villages. Now that I think about it, it was as if they were possessed by ghosts.
"What happened when you went there yesterday?"
Lin Yuxin frowned and asked:
"I didn't find anything unusual when I went there yesterday. Although the people received little food every day, they all had smiles on their faces and were full of hope for life. But today...!"
Zhao Yi was also puzzled. How could he change so much overnight? Was he poisoned? Or was he really possessed by a ghost?
Lin Yuxin lowered her brows in thought.
[I just heard them say that the symptoms are so similar to zombies? ? What happened? Is it poisoned? There is no such part in the book? It seems that she has led the plot astray. I have to go to Quyan County in person to see what is going on. ]
"Alright, Princess 녤 understands, you guys go down first!"
Lin Yuxin looked up and asked everyone to go and rest.
He was sitting there thinking and didn't even notice Li Xiaochen came in.
"What's up?"
Li Xiaochen saw Lin Yuxin frowning and guessed that she must be worried about something, so he asked in a low voice.
Lin Yuxin came to her senses, saw that it was him, relaxed, and talked about what Zhao Yi had just reported.
"I will go check the situation tomorrow to determine whether they were poisoned or otherwise. I will leave this matter at the government office to you."
Lin Yuxin decided to go and take a look, otherwise she would feel uneasy.
Li Xiaochen disagreed. He thought about it and said:
"Tomorrow, the king will take someone to check it out. The government office still needs you for work. Didn't you say that a lot of work will have to be rearranged tomorrow? If you leave, a lot of things won't be able to continue."
“Yes…!”
Lin Yuxin hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Don't worry, we can talk about it after the king comes back. You may not know that the northern border is just over two mountains from Quyan County. Let Shui Mei go and ask Lie Yan to come back and see. Maybe Lie Yan has a solution?"
Li Xiaochen interrupted Lin Yuxin before she could finish her words.
"Northern Frontier? Could it be...?"
When Lin Yuxin heard that Northern Xinjiang was very close, her heart tightened.
[Could it be a gnat? If it was a gnat, how did the people from Northern Xinjiang sneak into the country? Or was there an insider? They wanted to take advantage of the drought in Xia Country to do something? But if it was a gnat, she would be even less afraid. With Zhizhi here, it would be a small matter.]
Lin Yuxin didn't remember at all that she had made Zhizhi angry. She didn't know how many things she would have to use to appease her this time!
Squeak? What? Puzzles flashed in Li Xiaochen's eyes, but he didn't ask. He nodded at Lin Yuxin without saying anything, agreeing with Lin Yuxin's guess that Beijiang must have been involved.
But I'll have to wait until tomorrow to check the details before making a decision.
