My Lord, my wife said she doesn't have time to talk to you.

Huaying took a sip of the tea, the temperature was just right, and seeing Qinghe's amused look, she chuckled and said, "Okay, that's enough of my teasing. Does Qinghe have a crush on someone?"

Qing He said with a red face: "Young lady is really good at joking. Qing He will be your servant for the rest of my life and will not go anywhere. I will also protect you for the rest of my life like Nanny Wang did before Madam."

"From now on, just call me by your own name. No need to call yourself a servant." Huaying took Qinghe's hand and shook it gently.

"Miss, this is against the rules." Qinghe hurriedly lowered her head after hearing this.

Huaying stood up and walked towards the room, smiling and asking, "Isn't your name Qinghe?"

Qing He saw the young lady preparing to undress, and hurried forward to serve her, saying, "Young lady, you are good to me, and I know that, but I cannot let you bear a bad reputation for not governing strictly because of me."

Huaying looked at Qinghe with a serious expression and stopped talking.

The next morning, Huaying got up early, greeted her mother, and then told her that she was going to the street today. She asked her mother if she wanted to buy anything so that she could bring it to her.

Although Mrs. Shen didn't want Huaying to leave the house, she thought that if this girl really wanted to do business in the future, she would not be able to stop her from going out.

Looking at Huaying, he said softly, "Put on your veil and come back early."

Huaying nodded, bowed to her mother, took Qinghe, and walked towards the gate of the mansion.

Mrs. Shen saw Huaying walking away, turned around and told Yuelang, "Continue to follow the young lady and protect her safety." Yuelang took the order and left...

The carriage moved slowly along the spacious and flat Chang'an Avenue, and the wheels made a slight rolling sound.

After driving for a while, they finally arrived at the west of the city. Huaying put on her veil and got off the carriage.

A broad river stretched before our eyes, with a few scattered houses on the riverbank. The man-high reeds on the riverbank swayed in the wind.

Compared with the hustle and bustle of the south and east of the city, this place seems desolate and deserted.

Huaying walked slowly to the river bank, observing the river carefully.

The river was estimated to be more than 30 meters wide, and the water was very dark. The river was empty, with no boats or wooden bridges connecting the two banks.

Looking at the wide river, Huaying couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder there is no city wall here. It's really not easy for ordinary people to cross this river!"

Yue Xing and Qing He who were standing by didn't understand why the young lady came to this desolate place, until they heard the young lady say, "Let's go to the north of the city and take a look."

The three of them changed direction of the carriage again and headed towards the north of the city.

There are many mountains in the north of the city, and people live at the foot of the mountains. Huaying opened the curtain and saw that there were no green plants on the mountains. So she sat in the carriage and told Yuexing to go directly back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Huaying and her group hurried back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and went straight to Molan Pavilion.

As soon as she entered the door, Huaying couldn't wait to pick up a pen and paper to draw the scenery she saw in the west of the city. She stared at the drawing intently, as if she was thinking about something.

After a moment, she raised her head and asked Qing He beside her: "Has father returned?"

Qinghe replied, "When I served the young lady bird's nest porridge just now, I saw the master watching the second young master practicing martial arts in his courtyard." Huaying nodded slightly, then turned and went downstairs, ready to go look for her father...

In Qingfeng Courtyard, Shen Nanxing held a long sword in his hand, his posture was vigorous, and his sword skills were as swift as a storm. He raised his wrist lightly, and the long sword drew dazzling silver light. His sword skills were unique, not bound by traditional routines, but flexible and changeable, with tricky sword moves, like a falcon circling and diving in the air, directly attacking the enemy's vital points...

Huaying, who was standing behind her father, witnessed her second brother's amazing swordsmanship and couldn't help but blurt out, "Second brother, you are so amazing!"

Although Huaying doesn't know martial arts, she can see how skilled her second brother is in martial arts.

Hearing his sister's praise, Shen Nanxing gave her a proud smile.

The father turned around to look at his daughter and said gently, "Ning'er, are you here to watch your second brother practice swordplay?"

Huaying smiled and walked to her father, took out the blueprint and handed it to him, "Father, look at this piece of land, can we use it to grow something?"

After Lord Shen took the drawing, a look of surprise appeared on his face. He glanced at Huaying, then his eyes fell on the drawing.

Seeing that his father was staring at the blueprint, Huaying continued to ask, "Father, I found that the reeds on the river bank are growing very lushly. I think the soil there must be very fertile, but why doesn't anyone grow crops there?"

After hearing Huaying's question, Lord Shen frowned slightly, sighed softly, and then handed the drawing back to her, explaining: "Once a year, there was a serious flood here, which submerged a large number of crops and resulted in a complete loss of harvest.

Many people were even drowned. The residents on the shore were frightened by the disaster and moved away from that place. Since then, no one is willing to cultivate that wasteland. "

After listening to her father's words, Huaying nodded thoughtfully, but then looked at her father firmly and said, "Father, my daughter wants to try to cultivate this land." Her eyes were full of seriousness and determination.

After listening to Huaying's words, Lord Shen fell into deep thought. After a while, he slowly said, "To cultivate this land, we need to first inform the local county government. Let your brother go to inquire about the details tomorrow."

When Huaying heard that her father supported her so much, her eyes smiled like little crescent moons and she quickly thanked him: "Thank you, father!"
