Chapter 367: Fame in Exchange for Demand



That night, three carrier pigeons flew out of Xiao Lingling's room one after another.

The letters to be delivered are indeed quite long, and there are two letters to the Queen and Liu Jingrou respectively, so it is inevitable that there will be more.

Writing so many letters is no easier than doing work. Little Bell was so tired that she lay down on the bed and fell asleep in a short while.

The next day, Xiao Lingling slept in for a rare time and didn't get up until noon.

The yard was very quiet. She stood up and came out, yawning, and found that Cao Yi and the others were gone.

Just when he was wondering, he saw Chunying and Qiuyan coming over with food.

"Master! You're awake. You must be hungry. Come and have something to eat."

Little Bell was a little confused, "Are you two the only ones? Where are the others?"

Chunying smiled, "The Fifth Prince said that he dared not disobey your instructions, so he went out to distribute porridge in person early in the morning.

Although his injuries prevented him from walking or standing, Commander Cao found a chair with wheels from somewhere and pushed the Fifth Prince out.

He should still be at the city gate, right? Do you want to go take a look?"

Xiao Lingling shook her head after hearing this. "No, no, no! It's good enough for him to go. Things here are almost settled, and there's no need for us to get involved anymore."

So, I will discuss it with Su Jingshuo when he comes back. If there is nothing else, we will go back first.

He'll probably stay for a while, so I don't plan to stay any longer."

It had been almost a month since she left home, and she was somewhat homesick. Furthermore, since her master and the others were not at home, she was somewhat worried.

She didn't know why, but she had a nightmare all night last night, but when she woke up she couldn't remember what it was.

This feeling made her inexplicably feel a sense of urgency and uneasiness, and she wanted to go home!

"Then Master, please eat something first. Qiu Yan and I will go pack up the things later so that we can leave whenever you want."

Xiao Lingling simply washed up and sat at the dining table. "Okay, go ahead. You don't have to pack anything. Just prepare a carriage."

The two nodded and immediately went to prepare.

In fact, there is not much to prepare, after all, there is space for a small bell, but you still have to deal with everyone.

It was not until the afternoon that Su Jingshuo returned accompanied by everyone. Cao Yi was behind him pushing his chair, and Wang Yunmao was still saying something with a flattering look on his face.

Su Jingshuo had a faint smile on his face. He looked gentle and polite, without any airs of a prince.

Little Bell was lying leisurely in the rocking chair. When she heard the sound, she looked in their direction.

"Hey, you're back?"

Su Jingshuo looked at her, raised his hand and waved to Wang Yunmao, who immediately nodded in understanding and turned around to retreat respectfully.

Cao Yi pushed Su Jingshuo to the corridor and turned around to stand outside the yard.

Su Jingshuo stared at Xiao Lingdang's face, which had become much thinner. "Xiao Lingdang, thank you!"

Little Bell didn't even glance at him, rocking uncomfortably on the recliner. "What's there to thank me for? It's just what I promised you."

Su Jingshuo hesitated for a moment, "But, I still have to thank you! If you hadn't arrived in time, the situation in Changshui County would have been countless times worse than it is now.

I heard from Wang Yunmao that there was supposed to be another flood, but for some reason the water level dropped.

I know you must have done something, but since you don't want to say it, I won't ask.

However, everyone saw that you later contributed so much medicine and personally helped everyone treat the plague.

Today, many people knelt down and begged for mercy, hoping that I could report to my father and ask for a title for you. This is what I mean too.

I will go back and write the memorial and submit it. It is already a great advantage for me to have a name on the list. All the credit cannot be put on me.

If that were the case, I would be extremely disgusted with myself.”

In fact, Su Jingshuo was not very happy in his heart.

In fact, when the mission was in his own hands, he had already prepared for it to be snatched away.

Although I felt quite unwilling, I could only blame myself for being too careless.

It was Xiao Lingling's words that gave him renewed motivation.

He originally wanted two people to come and help. Even if he couldn't move, he could ask Cao Yi to help him out, which would at least be considered as his contribution.

But in the end, they were blocked on the road by heavy rain. All the trouble was done by Xiao Lingling, but in the end, he got the credit.

He really couldn't do it. What's the difference between this and stealing the fruits of other people's labor?

He thought about it all night last night and still felt that something was wrong, so he tore up all the manuscripts he had prepared for submission and planned to rewrite them.

Of course, considering the purpose of their trip, the main credit still goes to him, but the direction of curing the plague is still given to Xiao Lingling.

He still felt a little indebted, but he would just consider it as a favor owed to someone and would only find an opportunity to repay it later.

He spoke very frankly, and Xiao Lingling could understand a little bit.

But in fact, she really doesn't care.

She was just a little girl, and it was not easy for her to be named the Princess of the Nation, and she also had a fiefdom.

Even if she had made great contributions, there was no more title she could be given. The most she could be given was some gold, silver and jade items, which had no practical significance at all.

Therefore, instead of exchanging the credit for these external things, it would be more meaningful to give it all to Su Jingshuo.

She opened her mouth to persuade him, but looking at Su Jingshuo's serious and determined eyes, she was speechless.
