Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

Chapter 552: Sitting in Sangguo Town

It took more than half an hour before they finally let everyone go to rest. At the same time, they asked the kitchen team to take over the kitchen work as soon as possible.

As for the others, they were asked to stay in their rooms and reflect on themselves until she decided what kind of punishment she would give them.

Lin Xiaoyue didn't think she was making a fuss.

She can protect the people under her command and give them enough tolerance, but this is definitely not a basis for them to go against her at will, act first and report later, and make decisions on their own.

It is said that a country has its own laws and a family has its own rules. If this trend is not correct, in the future, people will execute first and then report, execute while reporting, or even execute without reporting, and everyone will act on their own and do whatever they want. Sooner or later, the Princess's Mansion will be in big trouble.

Putting the future people aside for now, Lin Xiaoyue was not in a hurry to punish them, just let them figure it out themselves.

I originally wanted to take advantage of the guards who had just returned from exploring outside the city to have a good rest for a few days after experiencing a fierce battle, and I could also take the opportunity to take some time off.

Unexpectedly, the Seventh Prince Uncle sent someone to call her over.

There was no other reason, he just wanted her to go to Sangguo Town and take charge for a while, and then come back after everything was settled there.

Lin Xiaoyue was fine with this decision. She was free anyway, so she might as well change the place and take it as a change of scenery.

And she didn't need to do anything special. She was just worried that the army of Tiansheng would lose their temper and take back Sangguo Town.

The generals who were suitable to be transferred to Sangguo Town to suppress the axis were still on the way and had not yet arrived. After the Seventh Prince carefully screened all the people at the pass, he found that Lin Xiaoyue was the most suitable candidate in terms of both military strength and recognition by the soldiers.

Only then did they discuss with her and let her go to Sangguo Town to take charge for a while, and after the new general arrived, she would be able to come back.

Of course, during this period, all expenses incurred by Lin Xiaoyue were paid for by the Seventh Uncle personally.

After rolling her eyes twice, Lin Xiaoyue added cunningly that any money she earned or found by herself would also go into her own pocket.

Seeing her greedy and mercenary appearance, the Seventh Uncle rolled his eyes like her and muttered, "It's just a small town over there in Sangguo Town, not the imperial capital. She wants to make a fortune in a remote place. She can't dig up other people's ancestral graves, right?"

Lin Xiaoyue glared at him unhappily, too lazy to argue with him, so she chuckled twice, turned around and left, leaving the Seventh Uncle with an unfathomable back.

As for what neither of them thought about, there might be some patriarchal soldiers who felt that Lin Xiaoyue, as a girl, was not fit for such a heavy responsibility.

Then... let's have a fight and let our fists speak. Whoever has the bigger fist will be the boss.

Having said that, probably the Seventh Uncle would not have thought that when letting Lin Xiaoyue take charge of Sangguo Town for a while, she did not try to win people over with virtue, but instead was simple and rough, and directly used force to crush everything... right?

After returning to the temporary house, Lin Xiaoyue notified everyone to pack up and prepare to move.

Not to mention Xiaocao and others' surprise, even the thirty or so people who had just arrived were confused.

When everyone was gathered, Lin Xiaoyue told everyone at once that the Seventh Prince had decided to let her take over Sangguo Town temporarily. If anyone was unwilling to go, she would not force them and would just stay at the pass.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, everyone expressed their willingness to follow her to Sangguo Town and stand by her side.

After carefully checking everyone's eyes and making sure that what they said was not against their will, Lin Xiaoyue nodded secretly in her heart and asked them to go back to the room and pack up as soon as possible and set off in half an hour.

Although the Seventh Prince Uncle did not ask Lin Xiaoyue to leave immediately, since she had to go anyway, whether early or late, and she had other purposes, it would be better to act early.

-----------------

In the blink of an eye, it is September with bleak autumn wind, falling leaves and the autumn atmosphere is getting deeper.

Lin Xiaoyue led the crowd to settle in Sangguo Town to act as a "mascot". Although some personnel had been dispatched before to take over local public materials, warehouses and other general affairs, and the Seventh Prince's uncle had sent someone to take care of it, she only had to keep an eye on it and prevent the fleas in the dark from causing trouble.

After that, an order was issued to emphasize that soldiers in the army should not harass the people. Even though Sangguo Town changed hands overnight, there was no rape or looting. For the people, the change was not big. There were even many people standing on the top floors on both sides of the street, silently watching their city change hands. They really accepted the change of ownership of Sangguo Town calmly.

Of course, if there is any change, it is that there are more patrol soldiers than before. However, these patrol soldiers will not disturb the people, but will help the people to get over the unrest of the change of ownership of the city more quickly, and arrest those who take advantage of the chaos to make trouble or those who behave suspiciously.

The people saw that not only did Dayuan's soldiers not oppress them, but that under Dayuan's rule, their lives were even smoother and safer than before under Cao Binglun's rule. So how could they think of resisting or making trouble?

In the final analysis, the people at the bottom of society are the ones who suffer the most in the fight between the two countries. For the people, as long as they have food and drink and their homes are safe, it doesn't matter who rules them.

However, because of Lin Xiaoyue's reputation for charging into battle, many soldiers at the pass had witnessed the princess's bravery and were convinced by her. In addition, Lin Xiaoyue had previously recruited guards, which earned her the favor of all the soldiers.

Therefore, in front of all the soldiers, the Seventh Uncle appointed Lin Xiaoyue to temporarily take charge of Sangguo Town, and wait for the arrival of a suitable general to take over. Not only did no one object, but there were even quite a few who responded in agreement.

During the time when Lin Xiaoyue took over Sangguo Town, apart from guarding against Tiansheng's counterattack, there was really nothing for her to worry about.

In this way, she had more time to take her guards to a large sugarcane forest that she and Xiaocao had passed by when they visited Sangguo Town at night.

The guards were puzzled as to why the princess led them out of Sangguo Town and walked all the way to the border with such light steps, but it was rare to see the princess so happy.

Therefore, even though everyone had doubts in their hearts, they did not say much. They just followed the princess all the way to a lush sugarcane forest where the sugarcane trees were thick, tall, black and shiny, and growing well.

Standing in the woods, a breeze blew by, and the sugarcane leaves rustled and danced with the wind like rolling green waves. The air was filled with the faint fragrance of sugarcane, as if welcoming their arrival.

In the sugarcane forest, each section of the sugarcane stem is covered with thin layers of white frost, which is as crystal clear as the morning dew. Each section of sugarcane is like a small treasure, containing endless sweetness.

Everyone looked at Lin Xiaoyue standing quietly in the woods, feeling the sweet fragrance blowing towards them, completely unaware that their princess was already beaming with joy.
