Traveling back to ancient times begins with the use of stone tools

"It's comfortable, comfortable. I don't need to move to another place. I'm alone. If you have any questions, just tell me."

The county magistrate thought that Leng Ruoxue had something that was inconvenient to handle and needed him to step in.

He hurriedly rejected Leng Ruoxue's house.

Leng Ruoxue was in a good mood today and smiled, "There is a long way to go. When the need arises, the county magistrate must not be polite to me."

"hehe"

The county magistrate smiled and invited Leng Ruoxue to have tea.

Looking at the troops galloping towards them, Leng Ruoxue stood up.

"Princess, the master and his wife have arrived."

"My Lord, I'm leaving first."

Leng Ruoxue stood up and prepared to greet her parents.

The county magistrate saw this and thought that the princess didn't want him to disturb her here, so he bowed and left.

After waiting for a while, a long convoy appeared.

"Ruoxue"

Wei Yu lifted the car curtain and waved to Leng Ruoxue.

Leng Ruoxue got on the carriage, and Leng Zejin and Leng Yujun were also there.

"Where are my father, mother, brother, grandfather and Yuxuan?"

"They're in the back of the carriage"

"Okay, let's go back home first. Thank you for your hard work on this journey."

Leng Ruoxue got on the carriage, and the guards led the way.

"You kid, you insisted that we come to the Northern Wilderness to have a look. Your father finally asked for leave."

Wei Yu looked at his grown-up daughter and found that she still liked to wear men's clothes.

Although he was muttering to himself, he couldn't close his mouth because of the smile.

"I miss you guys, don't I?"

Leng Ruoxue hugged Wei Yu's arm and acted coquettishly.

"elder sister"

Leng Yujun saluted Leng Ruoxue in a proper manner.

"Jun'er has grown so big now"

Leng Ruoxue felt a little regretful that she spent too little time with her younger brother.

"Is Dad busy?"

It's only been half a year since we last met, but I feel that Leng Zejin has become much more haggard.

"The Ministry of War cannot get the money, and the generals are calling for money every day. I can't change it, so I might as well hide out."

"Well, you must have a good time this time. The village chief and his men should be here tonight or tomorrow."

Leng Ruoxue knew that the Ministry of Revenue had no money, so she took out a lot from the emperor's private treasury, but the hole was too big and it was still not enough.

"I thought that since you have provided the soldiers in the Northern Wilderness with their food and wages, the Ministry of War would be better off. But who knew that it is still the same as before, asking for money is like asking for your life."

Leng Zejin started to complain as soon as he saw Leng Ruoxue.

As soon as he went to the Ministry of Revenue to ask for money, the Minister of Revenue asked him to find Leng Ruoxue to think of a solution, saying that Princess Leng could even provide the military rations and salaries for the Northern Wilderness, so she would definitely be able to provide some additional support.

"Ruoxue, there are really few people in this Northern Wasteland."

Wei Yu looked out the car window and saw the empty streets. He felt sorry for his daughter. In a place like this, even if she had money, she couldn't buy beautiful clothes or jewelry.

"Indeed, but there will be more people in the city in a few days. Everyone is farming in the village and only comes to the city on market days."

“This street is really wide.”

Leng Yujun also leaned on the car window to look outside.

"Wait until you have rested enough, and I will take you out to play."

Leng Ruoxue pinched Leng Yujun's face.

This new city is just like the modern one, with squares, street parks and so on.

The road was wide and smooth, and there were not many people on the road, so we soon arrived at their residence.

After entering the yard, "Father, Mother, do you live in a separate building or do we all live in one building?"

There is a three-story villa in the front of the yard, and six two-story villas behind it.

There are no walls between the villas, they are only separated by plants, with a glass veranda in the middle.

This way, even if the weather is bad, people in several buildings don’t need to worry, as they can enter other buildings through the corridor.

"Living together"

"separate"

Wei Yu and Leng Zejin spoke at the same time.

Leng Ruoxue looked at her father and mother, what was going on?

"The front is where Ruoxue needs to work and receive guests. It would be better if we live separately in the back."

For the first time, Leng Zejin did not follow Wei Yu's wishes.

"it is good"

Wei Yu felt that what Leng Zejin said made sense, so he did not refute it and arranged for someone to clean up the room at the back.

"Grandpa, brother"

Leng Ruoxue greeted her grandfather, Leng Yuxuan.

Leng Yuxuan is already a head taller than himself, and he has grown into a big boy without him noticing.

"The rooms in the back have been cleaned up. If you feel tired, you can go and rest first. Someone will clean up your things later."

Leng Ruoxue asked the housekeeper to arrange for Leng Zejin to be welcomed to the main building.

"Go to your study"

Leng Zejin looked at the spacious hall, as if he had something to say.

"Oh"

Leng Ruoxue took her father into her study and had someone serve him tea. "Father, have a drink first."

"it is good"

Leng Zejin and others went out. Leng Ruoxue closed the door and then took out the imperial edict from her arms.

"Kneel down and accept the order"

Leng Zejin thought Leng Ruoxue didn't know that this was an imperial decree.

"Dad, if there are no outsiders here, I won't pretend. What's the matter, Your Majesty?"

Leng Zejin:……

"Your Majesty is not in good health. He gave me this before I left."

Leng Zejin gave the imperial edict to Leng Ruoxue.

Leng Ruoxue took it and looked at it for a long time, "Dad, do grandparents know about it?"

"This is a secret decree. No one knows it except you and me, not even your mother."

"What does Dad think?"

Leng Ruoxue was worried, wondering why she had gotten herself into such a trouble.

"Dad doesn't know either. With Beihuang being like this, why would His Majesty give you this secret order?"

"Is the situation in the capital very tense?"

"I don't know either. You know Dad can't reach such a high place. Even His Majesty has never seen it before."

Leng Zejin felt like he had less hair.

"The emperor suddenly called me over, and I thought he wanted to ask you to raise some more military rations, but who knew he gave me this?"

"Can I not answer it?"

"The emperor said yes, as long as you don't take out the secret decree, you can just pretend it doesn't exist."

"What else did His Majesty say?"

"no"

"Okay, I understand, Dad, you go and rest for a while, I'll think about what to do."

Leng Zejin was also tired, both physically and mentally, so he went out by himself.

Leng Ruoxue took the imperial edict, looked at it for a while, and put the imperial edict and half of the token into the treasure chest.

The princess who protects the country and the permanent fiefdom, this temptation is quite great.

If the Northern Wilderness became his permanent fiefdom, he would become the true master of this land.

Instead of being like it is now, where the land is yours but is still subject to the control of the imperial court.

Is Prince Qing so open-minded? He handed over the military token in his hand just like that.

Although there are only 50,000 soldiers, with the imperial edict token, Leng Ruoxue can train her soldiers openly.

The Moguo plan should be implemented now.

Or... is this just a test from His Majesty?

Leng Ruoxue couldn't help but think more.

It was not until the guard knocked on the door and said it was time for dinner that Leng Ruoxue realized that she had been sitting in the study for the entire afternoon.

Putting aside the things in her mind, Leng Ruoxue had dinner with her family.

After dinner, I took my family for a walk in the deserted city of Xinbei.

“I didn’t expect that there were so few people during the day, but quite a few at night.”

While Wei Yu was staring at the two children playing on roller skates, he and Leng Ruoxue found a place to sit.
