Chapter 1844

He took out a list from his bosom and presented it with both hands, "I have gathered eleven doctors in Gongcheng, all of whom are kind-hearted and capable, and have volunteered to go to Tiema City to practice medicine." He took out a booklet from his sleeve, "This is the list of doctors and the list of medicinal materials collected recently."

Shi Anxia unfolded the roster. The ink was still fresh, and each name was followed by a detailed description of the disease they were good at. "But what difficulties have you encountered?"

Wu Qicheng stood up and knelt on one knee, his armor making a dull clanging sound. "I am incompetent. All the carriages in Gongcheng have been rented out. Now I am afraid that these doctors and medicinal materials will not be delivered to Tiema City before the heavy snow blocks the road."

Shi Chengyi heard it clearly from outside and couldn't help but lift the curtain to come in. "I just went to Yifeng Horse and Carriage Shop today and they said there would be a carriage in the morning."

The shopkeeper did say so. There was still sufficient supply of carriages and horses in the morning, but they were all booked by Master Xie.

Wu Qicheng stood up suddenly, and the sword on his waist hit the coffee table with a crisp sound. "This is impossible! I checked it myself five days ago, and all the seven carriage houses in Gongcheng have no carriages."

Shi Chengyi was not stupid, his eyes were slightly stern, and he thought of something, "So that Mr. Xie was waiting for me to come?"

Shi Anxia invited Shi Chengyi to sit down and asked leisurely, "Are you talking about Xie Yu, uncle?"

Shi Chengyi was even more surprised, "Xia'er knows this person?"

Shi Anxia nodded, "He came aboard to visit."

What exactly is Cen Che going to do?

Why would a prince of Liang State not stay in his own palace, but run to the dilapidated Iron Horse City to suffer from the wind and cold?

Suddenly, Shi Anxia understood.

This guy! He must be here to dig up the gold mine in my north wing!

In fact, this was one of her reasons for coming to Iron Horse City to live permanently. She was looking for her husband under the guise of a job, but in fact she was in an important position, investigating the veins of gold mines for the imperial court.

This is not something that can be done overnight, and it must be done in secret. Otherwise, if the news spreads, the Wan people will go crazy.

The gold mines in the northern wing extend outward from Tiema City. This is why Emperor Mingde must personally collect the gold back to Tiema City.

Just imagine, the Wan people occupied Tiema City for so long, but missed out on the coveted gold mine. Wouldn't this lead to a renewed war?

The Liang people had a map of the gold mines, and they had probably been coveting the Iron Horse City for a long time. But they were wary of the Wan people and did not dare to act rashly.

Now that Tiema City has returned to Beiyi's hands, the people of Liang mistakenly believe that Beiyi is unaware of the situation, and so they want to take the initiative and dig out the gold mine.

Cen Che should have come for this purpose. But it is unknown whether he acted on his own or was assigned by Emperor Yong.

It was at this moment that Shi Anxia suddenly realized why Cen Che was so eager to show his affection to her.

I'm afraid he wants to take advantage of her identity as a princess so that he can act more conveniently in Tiema City.

You're using me on my own territory, who are you looking down on? Shi Anxia suddenly laughed, "I have an idea. Uncle, please go and ask Mr. Xie to come over in person."

From this moment on, she would keep Cen Che firmly in her sight.

If he came for the gold mine, she would make sure he returned empty-handed.

If he did anything evil on the land of the North Wing, she would make sure his corpse would become the soil for growing flowers.

An hour later, Shi Chengyi found Cen Che at the "Fu Ke Lai" Inn and invited him to board the ship.

Cen Che went there happily. This time, he was the honored guest.

Even the cold maid Bei Hui greeted him with a smile, her smile in the cold wind like the grace of a spring flower, "Thank you for your invitation, sir. The princess has prepared a banquet for you in the warm cabin."
