Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

"What's going on?" Shi Chenxing asked a man who came running over.

The man looked like a small leader, and he was about to report the situation to Shi Chenxing.

"Xiao Shi, the people who are laying the foundation over there have discovered a spring."

Seeing that he did not treat Shi Chenxing with disrespect due to his young age, but was instead very respectful to him, Lu Ke'er could not help but nod secretly.

It seems that Shi Chenxing's management level is still good.

Shi Chenxing turned his head to look at Lu Keer.

"Let's go and take a look." Lu Ke'er said.

"Miss, please come this way and be careful where you step." Lu Ke'er didn't know the little leader, but the little leader obviously knew Lu Ke'er. Seeing this, he hurriedly and attentively led the way in front.

The villa designed by Lu Ke'er is divided into two parts, front and back. The front part includes a large lawn in front of the villa gate, where Lu Ke'er plans to build an orchard. The villa will be surrounded by a circle of walls, and pavilions, terraces, gardens and rockeries will be built inside according to the style of Jiangnan gardens and the original terrain, which will integrate the building with the surrounding mountain scenery very well. It can be said that it is ingenious. The craftsmen who saw the drawings at that time were all amazed.

The place where the spring was found was within the planning of the villa. According to the design drawings, it was located exactly in the back garden of the villa. The back garden was next to a cliff. According to the little leader, the spring was more than ten feet away from the cliff.

Lu Ke'er looked around and saw weeds growing on the ground. There were some round gray stones piled messily on the side of the mountain. Some were as big as basketballs, while others were only the size of eggs.

Seeing Lu Ke'er's eyes sweeping towards the rocks, the little leader quickly explained: "These rocks were originally scattered randomly on this piece of grass. A few days ago, we wanted to tidy up this piece of grass, so we picked up these rocks and piled them together. In two days, we will transport these rocks away."

“No need to transport them away. I can use these stones.” Lu Ke’er’s heart began to beat rapidly.

She felt the rich spiritual energy coming from the pile of stones.

She walked over and picked up a pomelo-sized stone, then put it down after a moment. The stone was a bit heavy and had a rough surface, and spiritual energy rushed towards her.

"Okay, miss." Although he didn't know why Lu Ke'er wanted these inconspicuous stones, the little leader immediately took it seriously and ordered his subordinates to take good care of the stones and not let anyone take them away.

After looking at the stones, Lu Keer came to the spring.

The spring was in a pile of rocks, which were embedded in the grass and could not be moved. The rocks formed a natural pit with a diameter of only about one meter. The spring water gushed up from the bottom of the pit and filled the entire pit.

There was a faint white smoke floating on the water.

"This spring is also peculiar. The water is just enough to fill the stone pit without overflowing." The little leader introduced, "Originally there was a thorn bush here. We removed the thorns and found this spring."

Lu Ke'er leaned down excitedly.

The spiritual energy became even more intense.

She scooped up a handful of spring water.

Clear spring water flowed through her fingers. In the early winter weather, the spring water was surprisingly warm. A stream of spiritual energy seeped into her body from her palms, and she felt refreshed and seemed to have endless energy.

The water contains rich spiritual energy, it is actually a spiritual spring!

"Don't destroy this spring, keep it as it is." Lu Ke'er said.

"Then the construction drawings will also have to change accordingly." Shi Chenxing's mind flashed with the design drawings of the back garden. "I remember that on the drawings, the location of this spring was originally planned to be a pavilion."

"Not bad." Lu Ke'er glanced at him approvingly, "Construction here is suspended. I'll go back and modify the drawings before we resume construction."

Fang Xingzheng welcomed Ye Feng and Zuo Yi into the back hall of the county government office.

"Your Highness, we have preliminarily found out that the iron ore was indeed mined privately by Prince Chen." Fang Xingzheng handed a few account books to Ye Feng, "These were found in the mine. They are all account books of the mine in recent years. They record in detail the monthly output and transportation details of the ore. Part of it was sold to the Wusha Kingdom, and the other part was smelted by Prince Chen himself."

Ye Feng took the account book, flipped through a few pages, and a surge of anger rose in his heart.

"Iron ore is a prohibited commodity. How dare he sell such important military supplies to the Wusha Nation!"

"Bang!" He slapped the table.

"Wusha is rich in war horses, but iron ore is scarce. King Chen has been exchanging iron ore for war horses for five years, judging from the accounts." Fang Xingzheng's face was solemn. "Moreover, we also found out that King Chen used ore to smelt iron and manufacture weapons. The weapons he manufactured in a few years could equip a full 100,000-man army!"

"He is plotting treason!" Zuo Yi was furious.

"The evidence is solid that Prince Chen is plotting a rebellion! Your Highness, please report this to His Majesty immediately and have Prince Chen punished!" Fang Xingzheng lifted his clothes and knelt down to plead.

Zuo Yi also said: "Your Highness, there is no time to lose, please make a decision immediately!"

Ye Feng looked calm, his slender jade-like fingers tapping on the pearwood table top.

"Boom--boom!"

The fingers stopped suddenly.

"Guess, does King Chen know that we already have evidence of his guilt? If he knows, what will he do next?" he suddenly asked.

Fang Xingzheng and Zuo Yi were shocked: "Your Highness is worried..."

"Even a cornered dog will jump over the wall." Ye Feng snorted coldly, "My uncle is the most cautious. My father sent three imperial edicts to order him to come to the capital, but he kept making excuses. I guess he is ready to start a rebellion at any time. The disaster of refugees was caused by him. After this disaster, he has an extra 200,000 new troops. If the emperor asks for punishment, he will definitely start a rebellion!"

Fang Xingzheng frowned deeply: "In recent years, the treasury of Qi State has been empty and people's livelihood has been declining. We need to recuperate and develop the economy. If a war breaks out, the people will suffer."

"So, I made preparations several years ago." Ye Feng sneered, "If Prince Chen wants to start a rebellion, it depends on whether he has the ability to do so!"

Ye Feng ordered Zuo Yi: "Immediately report Prince Chen's rebellion to Grandpa Huang, and let Grandpa Huang make the final decision! In addition, tell the people we have planted around Prince Chen to take action!"

"Yes!"

Fang Xingzheng looked at Ye Feng with both surprise and admiration.

This seventeen-year-old grandson of the emperor was so far-sighted and clever. How old was he a few years ago? He had already placed his own people around Prince Chen. No wonder he was able to take over most of the power in the court in just a few years.

Pingzhou, Prince Chen's Palace.

"What? You failed again?" Prince Chen was furious and questioned Qu Wei, "Didn't you say poisoning is a better method than assassination? How did you fail again?"

Qu Wei was also puzzled: "Is there an expert in poison or detoxification around the Crown Prince? How could they find the heartbreak grass without drinking the soup?"

The situation of poisoning and the final discovery were reported to her by the spy. The spy contacted Xiaoliu who sneaked into Xilin County three months ago and gave him the poison, which led to the implementation of the poisoning plan.

But unfortunately, not only did the poisoning fail, but Xiaoliu was also exposed.
