Chapter 1850
The white breath exhaled by the drivers condensed into ice and hung on their eyebrows, but they still delivered medicinal materials and other supplies to every disaster-stricken city on time.
The common people spontaneously brought water and food to the soldiers who were shoveling snow and clearing the way. Women carried earthenware pots, and boiling ginger soup rose up in the cold wind. Old men pushed wheelbarrows and stuffed the last few millet cakes in their homes into the frozen hands of the soldiers.
Even half-grown children were running on the official road, stepping on the knee-deep snow, singing nursery rhymes in their tender voices, "The wind bites the hands, the snow is up to the waist, the soldiers on the official road swing the shovel. The mother cooks the soup, the father carries the bag, and the children walk on the ice bridge to deliver food. The princess's carriage passed by first, and we Lingzhou people will stick together through thick and thin!"
The princess would dispatch grain that should have been allocated to the lost areas such as Tiema City to be distributed to areas where there was a food shortage.
She enforced her orders and kept her word. Qiu Zhiyan played a big role in this.
It was at this time that Qiu Zhiyan emerged and his abilities attracted much attention.
Cen Che brought Xie Huai to Enyi Inn to report the progress of the Xie family's actions, and Shi Anxia could only say "hmm hmm" and nodded frequently.
Whenever something needed to be arranged, she always looked at Qiu Zhiyan, like a brainless and stupid princess.
Cen Che came down and said to Xie Huai, "See, what did I say? She is just a puppet, brainless. Look at how prosperous Lingzhou is now, it's all because of the capable officials below."
Xie Huai nodded in agreement.
But no matter what, he met the princess and General Wu, the defender of Tiema City. These people were all real officials and generals appointed by the court.
Even if the Xie family spends their whole lives in chaos, it would be difficult for them to meet these people.
All doubts were gone, and Xie Huai was determined to empty the Xie family's assets to save the family from this disaster, and the servants who followed him were so anxious that their throats were smoking.
Cen Che was even happier these days. He received important news that Lingzhou was included in the princess' fiefdom.
His eyebrows and eyes, which had always been as gentle as jade, became sharp and bright.
The North Wing is his blessed land! God is so merciful!
If Lingzhou is the princess's fiefdom, given his status in the princess's mind, ahaha, wouldn't that be very convenient for him to do things?
One day, Cen Che went to look for the princess again and happened to run into the legendary Ye Xun.
His steps suddenly stopped, his back straightened. He had heard that Gu Masters killed people invisibly, and now, passing each other in the corridor, it seemed that even the touch of clothes would be infected with the poison.
He turned sideways and tried to retreat, but saw that dark figure blocking the road ahead like a ghost.
His gaze like a frosty blade scraped across his Adam's apple, and Ye Xun's voice was colder than the snow, "Are you afraid of me?"
Cen Che shuddered, but his usual casual smile appeared on his face, "You are joking, sir." He deliberately pronounced the word "sir" frivolously, "We have never met before, why should I be afraid?"
At this moment, Zhuo Qiran arrived and bowed respectfully to Ye Xun, "Master, the princess wants to discuss something with you."
Bei Hui also came, "Thank you, sir. The princess wants to see you."
Ye Xun glanced coldly and said, "No, I'm not going." Then he walked in the opposite direction.
Bei Hui smiled and said, "Thank you for your forgiveness, sir. Our princess has to be courteous to Mr. Ye Xun. Just avoid him when you see him in the future, and don't mess with him."
Cen Che felt very aggrieved. I had clearly taken a detour.
The secret report from his subordinates was indeed correct, Ye Xun was just a weird old man!
He knew that he would need to avoid Ye Xun next time he saw her, and try not to bump into her. When he was thinking this, his eyes lit up, and he saw the woman he liked, and his heart suddenly thumped.
