All the money was emptied on the way to exile, and there was too much money to spend

Today, Xie Wenhao, together with Wang Shouquan and others, took people to the outside of the city to deal with the bodies of the Mobei soldiers.

They dug a huge pit and buried all the bodies in it.

However, because so many people died, even though they had dug a very large pit, they were still a little overwhelmed.

There's not enough space to bury so many people.

Therefore, many people used horse-drawn carriages, donkey carts, ox carts, and various types of rickshaws to transport the bodies that could not be buried to the mass graves outside the city.

Although Xie Wenhao did not help with the transportation, he directed the scene for a long time.

Everyone worked together until the afternoon to deal with the bodies outside the city wall.

There is no time to take care of the blackened blue bricks and the bricks stained red with blood on the city wall.

"Thank you, General. You've worked hard today."

Wang Shouquan also worked with the soldiers for a day.

Although he was extremely tired, there was always a smile on his face.

He walked over from not far away and came to Xie Wenhao's side. "I will hold a small banquet in the garrison tonight..."

Before Wang Shouquan finished speaking, he heard his confidant come to report, "General Wang, General Xie, King Xiaoshan is here."

"What? My uncle is here?"

"King Xiaoshan is here?"

The two of them spoke together.

There was surprise in his voice.

Probably no one expected that Xie Lin would come to Stone City at this time.

Knowing that Xie Lin was coming, both Xie Wenhao and Wang Shouquan had to pack up immediately and go to meet him.

Fortunately, things outside the city have been almost sorted out, and the remaining finishing work can be done by the deputy.

The two of them returned to the city together, packed themselves up, and went straight to see Xie Lin.

After Xie Lin rushed from Chang'an to Stone City overnight, he washed and changed his clothes.

But when he came out of Xia Chan's room, he changed into another set of clothes.

There was a faint smile on her face and a faint scent of just taking a bath on her body.

Or it could be the scent of summer cicadas.

Anyway, he liked it very much.

"Uncle."

"Your Majesty."

Xie Wenhao and Wang Shouquan appeared in the yard together, and both of them bent down to greet Xie Lin.

Xie Lin nodded slightly.

"Let's go next door and talk."

Although Xia Chan woke up, she hadn't gotten up yet. Xie Lin didn't want the talking outside to disturb her.

Take people to the next yard.

Fortunately, Xia Chan bought this street early on, so Xie Lin can now go wherever he wants without having to worry about having no place to go.

After knowing that Xie Lin had arrived in Shitou City, in addition to Xie Wenhao and the others who came immediately, Wang Zhifu, the governor of Shitou City, also came.

He also hurried over with several officials to pay his respects.

Although Xie Lin has not yet proclaimed himself emperor, the entire world is already in his hands. If he wants to become emperor, it is only a matter of time.

Whether it was Wang Shouquan, Prefect Wang, or other officials and defenders of Shitou City, they all understood this.

They also respect and admire Xie Lin from the bottom of their hearts.

Whether he becomes emperor or not, they will follow him wholeheartedly.

This can be seen from the fact that he entered the city quietly, but the main officials and soldiers in the city all came to pay him a visit.

Not to mention that Xie Lin also has such a powerful princess.

This is simply a huge plus.

No one else has it, only Xie Lin has it.

Xie Lin could see the attitudes of the officials and garrisons.

To be honest, he didn't have too much obsession with becoming emperor, but one thing was that he had to have absolute ability and power.

This is the only way to protect the cicadas.

The fact that Xia Chan was taken away by the people from the Shenyin Sect was a thorn in Xie Lin's heart that could never be removed.

Even though they were reunited later, he still couldn't forget how blatantly the other party took away his beloved girl from right in front of him.

To prevent this from happening, he needed strength.

It takes a lot of strength.

If this power can only be obtained by becoming an emperor, he doesn't mind being an emperor.

In fact, when it comes down to it, Xie Lin's original intention of fighting for the world was to better protect his wife and family...

But then again, now that it has come to this, if he doesn't declare himself emperor, it will probably discourage those soldiers who have been fighting with him...

.........

Xia Chan took a bath, especially paying attention to washing her hands several times, then changed into clean clothes and walked out of the house.

She wore a light red skirt today.

The bright red color makes her skin look extra translucent.

All of these clothes were chosen for her by Wei Hua and I. She herself was not too particular about her appearance.

As long as you are comfortable.

But Xuya and Weihua are different.

They have lived in southern Xinjiang since childhood. The colors of clothes in southern Xinjiang are relatively dark, and the most common accessories are silver jewelry.

People who have lived in such an environment for a long time will naturally be unable to take their eyes off the beautiful clothes worn by the Han people in Daqing.

Xia Chan let them choose the clothes they liked and she paid for them.

While the two of them were happily choosing the clothes they wanted, they also selected a lot for Xia Chan.

The outfit Xia Chan is wearing was chosen by Xuya and the others.

She personally likes clothes that are more in black, white and grey, but she will not refuse to wear the clothes that Xuya and the others buy for her.

After leaving the room, Xuya came forward to report that Xie Lin was in the next yard.

Xia Chan nodded and didn't go to the next door.

The men were discussing something, but she had no interest in listening.

As I said before, summer cicadas are very Buddhist.

When no one bothers her, she likes to lie down and do nothing.

A peaceful world, eating, drinking, taking care of kids, and counting money until her hands are tired, this kind of life is her ultimate goal.

Before Xie Lin came, the burden of Stone City was all on her shoulders.

Now that Xie Lin is here, she can finally put her mind at ease.

"Come on, let's go out and play."

Xia Chan picked up the child and called Xu Ya and Wei Hua to go shopping together.

Let the men worry about the war, while they eat, drink, go shopping, and think about what business to do in her shops.

A few people took their children for a walk on the street, and Xia Chan received many gifts from simple people.

But these things are not expensive.

Like home-grown cabbage, beans, tomatoes, home-raised chickens, eggs, ducks, duck eggs, or bacon, fish freshly caught from the river...

In short, it is a variety of supplementary foods.

Xia Chan didn't want to accept it at first, but they were so enthusiastic that she couldn't refuse.

"Princess, if it weren't for you, we would have been killed by the Huns long ago. You've worked hard to kill the enemy, and we can use the old hen we raised to make soup for you."

"The vegetables we grow are also good. They all say they are delicious. Princess, have some vegetarian dishes after drinking the chicken soup."
