Chapter 201: I will deal with the affairs of Huilong County as soon as possible and return to Beijing as soon as possible
Lan Xiyue fell silent, her eyes slightly lowered.
At this moment, the system's voice echoed in her mind, "Host, don't let your imagination run wild. The original owner is dead, and you have completely integrated into this body. You are you now. You were cold-blooded before, but that was forced by the environment and for survival. But now, perhaps this is your true nature."
Lan Xiyue was slightly shocked when she heard this, and then responded in her mind: "Oh, system, it's rare that you can comfort people?"
The system was silent for a moment, then added, "…" It paused and continued, "Who is this system for? It's because it noticed the host was feeling down, so it offered comfort. If the host remains down, how can he be in the mood to earn points?"
Lan Xiyue's face darkened when she heard this, and the heaviness in her heart seemed to be relieved a lot. "I see, I was wondering when you were ever so 'caring'. Humph!"
The system said unconvincedly, "Host, don't forget the Bone-Breaking Black Jade Ointment. If you didn't have the Bone-Breaking Black Jade Ointment, and you learned that your brother's legs were broken, how could you not be anxious now?"
Lan Xiyue rubbed her head and said, "Okay, okay, system, you keep nagging in my mind. It gives me a headache." No matter how you try to clear yourself, you black system can't be cleared in front of me.
system:"……"
Mo Liyuan looked up at the blazing sun overhead, frowning slightly. He said softly to Lan Xiyue, "Yu'er, the sun is scorching. Go back and rest first."
Lan Xiyue seemed a little absent-minded, her mind brooding over the matter of her brother the system had just mentioned. Worried, she couldn't help but ask, "Mo Liyuan, when are we going back?"
Mo Liyuan's eyes flickered slightly, as if he guessed her thoughts, and asked in a deep voice: "Yue'er, are you worried about your brother?"
His tone was solemn, yet hesitant. Yao Lao had written to inform him that Lan Shenye's legs were severely injured, with little chance of recovery. He hadn't told Lan Xiyue about this, fearing she would be distraught. He had originally planned to return to the capital in a few days, but now that the Crown Prince was injured and the First Prince was embroiled in numerous issues, he feared he wouldn't be able to return for a while.
Lan Xiyue nodded, her eyes filled with worry. "Brother can't walk, and he must be in great pain. I want to go back early and heal his legs. I have a way to get him back on his feet."
Mo Liyuan pursed his lips when he heard this. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke: "If Yue'er is really anxious, I can arrange for someone to send you back to the capital first."
Lan Xiyue was about to speak when the system's voice suddenly rang out in her mind, its tone carrying a hint of urgency: "Host, your brother's legs have been treated with the Black Jade Ointment for Broken Bones, and his condition will improve. You are following the Regent now, which is a good opportunity to earn points! If you go back first, won't you waste time earning points?"
Lan Xiyue frowned, feeling somewhat unhappy. She whispered in her mind, "System, there's no rush to gain points, right?"
The system, however, was relentless, urging in its tone: "Host, earn enough points sooner and you will be free sooner!"
Lan Xiyue was a little annoyed by the system's noise and couldn't help but reply in her mind, "Alright, alright, system, stop talking! I'll wait for the Regent to go back together, okay?"
The system finally quieted down with satisfaction.
Lan Xiyue raised her eyes and looked at Mo Liyuan. "I'll wait for you to go back together. With me, your legs will not be crippled. I'll give you a surprise when we get back."
Mo Liyuan heard this, he held her hand and whispered: "Don't worry, Yue'er, I will deal with the matter of Huilong County as soon as possible and return to the capital as soon as possible."
Lan Xiyue nodded, a faint smile on her lips: "Okay."
After returning to the newly rebuilt county government office, Lan Xiyue went back to the inner courtyard, while Mo Liyuan went to deal with some matters.
"Chuxia, Chuchun, hurry up and prepare some water for the young lady. I want to take a bath." As soon as Lan Xiyue entered the house, she couldn't help but sweat a lot. She felt sticky and uncomfortable. It was such a horrible weather. It was so hot that it was killing her.
Early spring and early summer left.
