Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

Otherwise, with the strong wind and heavy snow, even if she wanted to get on the road, the slippery ground alone would be a big problem, making it impossible for either people or animals to walk on it.

In addition, there was a strong wind and snow, and the vision was blurred. I couldn't risk my life just to go back.

Therefore, the safest way was to wait until the blizzard stopped before leaving. However, she didn't know when the blizzard would stop, and she didn't want to come to the palace again before leaving, where trouble could easily arise.

Why not take advantage of the opportunity to go to the palace today to report this matter to the Emperor, which can also be considered as an early farewell.

When the cabinet ministers and the Minister of War heard that Lin Xiaoyue was leaving the imperial city, they couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Of course, it is somewhat regrettable for the Minister of War.

After all, if Lin Xiaoyue was there to give instructions on the production, it would probably help the craftsmen in the Ministry of War learn faster and do it more easily.

But they also said that many veterans in Xianyun Villa participated in the whole process of making the sand table model. In this way, it is not completely hands-off. At least they have trained the veterans. In the future, they can ask the veterans to help make the sand table model in the Ministry of War. After discussing with the Seventh Uncle, it should be feasible.

Thinking of this, the Minister of War's gaze could not help but slide towards the Seventh Uncle who was drinking hot tea at the side. Seeing that he looked calm and composed, he thought that he would find time to talk to him alone later.

Even if he told him now, he might not have time to deal with him, so he didn't want to make himself miserable.

After finishing the business, Lin Xiaoyue took her leave under the guidance of the Seventh Uncle.

However, just as they left the imperial study, a snowy storm raged on the palace corridors, blowing away the little warmth that everyone had worked so hard to build up in the palace, leaving them cold all over.

Just as everyone was shaking their hands and feet and whispering in admiration at the emperor's majesty, a handsome man in a purple cloak came towards them.

The man has delicate features and an elegant temperament, and his every move reveals an innate noble character.

As the two sides approached, the man took the lead in bowing to the Seventh Uncle.

The Seventh Prince waved his hand nonchalantly and told him to go in quickly as it was windy outside and he should be careful not to get sick from the cold wind after he had recovered.

At this moment, Lin Xiaoyue realized that the person in front of her should be the prince. No wonder he was so majestic and extraordinary.

Well, it's no wonder that she actually met the prince a month and a half ago. It's just that at that time she followed Doctor Li and Doctor Qiao into the palace to help the prince detoxify.

All I could see from a distance was a thin, pale man lying sickly on a huge, luxurious carved bed.

Now, after just over a month, the prince was able to get out of bed and walk around. He seemed to have been reborn, with a rosy complexion and full of energy.

It seems that Doctor Li and Doctor Qiao did their best to treat the prince during this period.

Lin Xiaoyue was among the crowd, and everyone saluted the prince.

This time she was not embarrassed, because there were people supporting her on both sides. Even if she wanted to leave, she had nowhere to go, but it made things difficult for the people around her.

Because her outfit was so strange and eye-catching, and she didn't fit in with the crowd, the prince's gaze lingered on her for a moment longer, and then he regained his composure.

After passing by, the prince suddenly stopped and looked back at the "fat ball" who stood out from the crowd. There was a hint of doubt and curiosity in his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.

However, in the end he shook his head and continued to move forward.

After leaving the palace, everyone headed straight for Xiangyun Villa.

It was extremely cold that day. If you were exposed to the cold wind for a while longer, you would be frozen into a stick. So you had to go back home and hug the charcoal stove to keep warm.

When they arrived at the villa, Lin Xiaoyue, Chun Xing and others met immediately and told the emperor that they would return immediately after the snowstorm stopped.

Doctor Qiao and Doctor Li raised their hands to show their agreement.

The Imperial City was not a place they wanted to stay in. It was full of twists and turns, making it hard to guard against. If it weren't for the snowstorm, they would have wanted to leave immediately.

It's one thing for people to want to leave, and it's another to keep them during a blizzard.

Unable to leave and feeling upset, Lin Xiaoyue saw Doctor Qiao and Doctor Li pulling the mute medicine boy and Chun Xing to make pills to pass the time;

Er Gouzi also made distilled liquor with the veteran soldiers on the farm;

Xiao Cao followed her and slacked off every day. She thought about it carefully and decided that it was not possible. Although sleeping in the cold weather could help her hibernate and save energy, she would still feel sleepy even if she slept during the day and at night.

So she pulled out the carriage again and started to modify it, thinking that she had to work more easily when she returned.

But when the modification was halfway done, the Minister of War came with his men and said that since she had not left yet, they would hand the craftsmen over to her and ask her to help lead the team.

Although the veteran soldiers on the farm could learn, Lin Xiaoyue had already made overall arrangements when teaching them. The veteran soldiers obeyed and had experience in taking charge of their own parts, but they lacked the concept of overall planning. It was not a good idea for craftsmen to learn things piecemeal.

So, while there is a big snowstorm and she, the original inventor, is still here, why not let her guide these people and help them learn in more detail.

What he said was true. Besides, the Minister of War was a good man and would not let Lin Xiaoyue teach in vain. He even paid the tuition. This made Lin Xiaoyue, who wanted to refuse and be lazy, even more speechless.

Go lie down.

Just hand it in, just treat it as a way to kill time.

After receiving the "tuition fee", Lin Xiaoyue led the craftsmen to select suitable materials, how to depict the terrain, and how to arrange the symbols representing different military units.

The craftsmen did not learn carelessly just because they were taught by women.

They were all from the Ministry of War. Before they came, they were repeatedly told by the Minister of War to study hard and not to look down on the other party just because she was a woman. I also saw the sand table model of the entertainment city. To be honest, they can't make this thing. It's too delicate and complicated.

Being able to learn from the "founder", they all worked extremely hard and no one slacked off.

In addition, they learned that this person was the Le'an Township Lord appointed by the emperor himself, and that the improved crossbows they made before were also made by her. Even the best people among them were transferred to the secret team, and it was said that they were also making the secret weapons invented by the Le'an Township Lord.

Therefore, they were so excited to be able to learn from the village chief that they dared not be disrespectful.

After staying in Xianyun Villa for less than a week, they, under the leadership of Lin Xiaoyue, made an exquisite terrain model using wood and fine sand, with key information such as mountains, rivers, and cities marked in detail.

This sand table model is not only beautiful but also practical. It is highly favored and praised by the Seventh Uncle and officials and craftsmen at all levels of the Ministry of War.

By the end of January the snowstorm had finally stopped, and it was time for Lin Xiaoyue and the others to say goodbye.
