Jiang Ling saw the city gate not far away, opened his mouth wide, and stretched out his hand to refuse.
"This... is too tragic, isn't it?"
Yue Qianli spoke to him without changing his expression.
"Who says it isn't?"
What he was thinking at the moment was that if this northern border was to be built according to Jiang Ling's ideas, it might only be a framework within a year.
Would it take a lot of manpower and financial resources to achieve the paradise he wanted?
The North is now a refugee camp!
The task of building this city is really a long and arduous journey.
Yue Qianli stood in the carriage and looked up.
It was a ruin with uneven ground, low and dilapidated stone houses on both sides, and even quite a few thatched houses.
It has the simplest function of sheltering from wind and rain.
The low and dilapidated city gate and wall are useless except for serving as a reminder.
Is this the city in the North?
If the city is like this, you can imagine how dilapidated the village must be.
Jiang Ling couldn't help but stand up and took Yue Qianli's arm.
When he saw the scene in front of him, his face was full of disbelief.
It wasn't just the city gate that surprised him.
There are also rows of low and dilapidated residential houses inside.
He had heard that conditions in the north were poor, but he didn't expect them to be this bad.
The only difference between this level of devastation and the apocalypse is that the people here are alive, although they are as skinny and ragged as the zombies.
Suddenly I felt that I had a great responsibility and had to start working hard again.
However, when he turned to look at the dazed Yue Qianli, he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for this once high and mighty prince.
It's not his fault that he is so powerful, but he was envied and exiled here to suffer.
Perhaps the emperor had known about the situation in this place for a long time.
In his mind, even if Yue Qianli survived by chance, he would definitely have a hard time. This was probably his purpose.
He reached out and patted Yue Qianli on the shoulder, speaking generously.
"Student Yue, don't worry, I will build a city for you, and you will be the master of this city from now on.
Be good, don't be sad."
I originally wanted to say that Jiang Ling was overthinking it, but then I thought, let it be a misunderstanding.
It's not shameful to have someone feel sorry for you.
So, she looked at Jiang Ling, nodded, and gave a charming smile.
"Thank you, Jiang. I will wait patiently."
Jiang Ling was instantly dazzled by Yue Qianli's charming smile.
Then I realized that I had really brought shame to modern people.
However, this man is indeed more handsome than many modern stars. If he were a star in modern times, he would definitely be famous all over the world.
Oops, I'm thinking too far ahead again.
Then he looked ahead seriously and found the farthest point along the street.
There is actually a house with its back against the mountain.
They both looked surprised and excited at the same time.
Is that the largest and best residence in the North that Li Xuan mentioned?
It’s really good.
Yue Qianli and Jiang Ling smiled at each other, already understanding each other's thoughts.
This is where they will live in the future.
Suddenly, the carriage in front stopped.
At this time, An Yi came over.
"Master, An Er and the others are here to pick us up."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a slightly excited voice.
"Master, Master, I am here to pick you up."
Yes, those people in the North also miss their master and young master very much.
"Yeah, it's hard work."
Under Jiang Ling's guidance, Yue Qianli became more and more humane, and his face became more gentle when dealing with his subordinates who had been through life and death with him.
Hearing the master's words, An Er felt warm in his heart. They did not need the master's gratitude for doing these things, as long as the master knew that they were all good.
However, after hearing such warm words from their master, they felt very motivated.
"It's not hard, Master. The servants have already prepared the house. Please get in the carriage, Master and Young Master. The city gate is a little distance away."
An Er knew that someone was watching them at the city gate.
But, so what?
None of them were afraid before, let alone now that they are all gathered together.
Not to mention that the master has recovered his martial arts, and it is said that the young master still has a powerful weapon, the blood-sucking vine, so they can just walk in with a swagger.
From now on, the northern border will be theirs and they can do whatever they want.
I have to say that An Er was somewhat foresighted.
Thus, the twenty secret guards finally gathered together, along with the six escorting officers.
They were divided into two teams and walked on both sides of Yue Qianli's carriage, looking neat and imposing.
A convoy entered the northern border so openly.
The forces guarding near the city gate, especially the two smaller ones, should quickly go back and report the news, and they must also make relevant preparations.
It seems that the people who were exiled this time may not be able to be bullied.
However, Beiming Pavilion, which had originally planned to stop the carriage as usual, did not dare to act rashly after seeing this scene.
I can only follow them quietly to see where they end up, and then go back to report to the Pavilion Master. This time, these are really fat sheep.
There are guards, and each of them has strong fighting ability.
There are also ten carriages filled with supplies, and you can tell at a glance that there are a lot of things.
Finally, there are two handsome men, and their leader will probably like them.
I haven't seen such a great person in such a long time.
Fortunately, it was just their inner drama. If Jiang Ling and Yue Qianli knew their thoughts, these people would actually dare to take action against them.
Jiang Ling was really about to die of laughter.
Life is too boring, it always needs some spice.
He doesn't mind what happens, it's just a matter of how he handles it.
Fortunately, Jiang Ling doesn’t have the ability to read minds.
As soon as the carriage entered the city, people on both sides of the road came out to watch.
Seeing so many carriages and guards.
The first thought in their minds was that he was very rich and powerful, and they couldn't afford to offend him.
However, people speculated which wealthy and powerful figure was exiled and was so arrogant.
This is unique!
They are really envious.
Groups of people were discussing this.
"Oh my god, who is this important person? Was he exiled here?"
"It doesn't look like that. It looks more like visiting relatives. So leisurely."
"That's quite true. Even if they weren't exiled, how many people who could come to our northern border were honest? Most of their money was either spent on the way or robbed by bandits."
"Yes, I was also robbed by bandits in the beginning, and only then did I save my life and reach the northern border."
"I'm not as miserable as you. I spent it all along the way. Who knew the North was such a terrible place to live?"
"Haha, the North is notoriously cold, remote, poor, and a lawless area.
Here, no one cares if you kill someone. As long as you are strong enough, everyone will be afraid of you, terrified of you, and will try every possible way to get close to you."
"That's right. So even if the Beiming Pavilion is full of evil and can kill anyone it wants, no one can stop it."
