Time passed quickly, and Chu Ci wandered around the tent every day just to see if there were any problems.

What Chu Ci didn't expect was that after three days, the heavy snow was still falling. The snow was almost as high as a person, but the supplies were getting less and less. The most obvious thing was that the pile of pork as high as a mountain was disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye, not to mention the cabbage and potatoes.

Chu Ci became more and more worried.

Chu Ci was standing beside a snow pile when a heater was stuffed into her hand. Chu Ci was about to say thank you when she turned around and saw King Rui's face.

He was no longer as domineering as usual. Now he was filled with endless fatigue. However, when he looked at her again, there was still endless tenderness in his eyes.

Zang Mo opened his cloak, hugged Chu Ci in his arms, and wrapped the two of them tightly with his cloak. "What are you looking at? Why don't you stay in the tent? It's too cold outside. The weather this year is really too cold."

Chu Ci raised his head slightly and glanced at the sky, "I also feel that there is something wrong with this snow."

After Chu Ci finished speaking, he waited for a long time but Cang Mo still didn't say anything else. He couldn't help but feel curious, "Why don't you let me tell your fortune?"

Cang Mo smiled indifferently, "Little fox, remember what I said, I would rather the world betray me than I betray the world. But in my case, this sentence is not right, it should be that I would rather I betray the world than let the world hurt you."

Prince Rui's eyes were firm when he said this. Chu Ci could tell that he was serious, and he couldn't help but feel a little happy.

But what they didn't see was that a pair of sinister eyes were staring at them. I would rather betray the whole world than hurt you in the slightest because of the whole world.

Okay, okay, that’s great, then don’t blame me for taking action.

Chu Ci looked at the heavy snow, worried, "Have the food supplies that the emperor mobilized arrived?"

Cang Mo shook his head. "Not yet. The snow on the road is too thick. Not only is it hard to tell the direction, but the carriage and other things can't move at all."

"If we can't go by land, what about by water?"

Cang Mo didn't quite understand what Chu Ci said. "Go by water? It's frozen now, so wearing shoes is impossible. But if we slide, it's faster than on land, but the people over there aren't good at it, so it's probably difficult."

Chu Ci thought of something, which was the game that the people in their sect often played when they were young, sledding. It was a good thing.

Chu Ci came out of Cang Mo's arms, walked into his own small tent, sat down and started writing a letter.

Cang Mo followed her in and wanted to ask something, but when he saw her writing a letter, he didn't say anything.

Chu Ci finished writing quickly, and when he wanted to hand it out, he didn't know who to give the letter to.

Chu Ci glanced at Cang Mo beside her, and finally put the letter back into her arms. The senior brother must have left a carrier pigeon for her when he left.

"What are you doing?" He was quite curious. The little fox finished writing the letter and put it back in his arms. What did this mean?

Chu Ci raised his head slightly and looked at Cang Mo, "Give me a route map for the people who are delivering the supplies. Have them find the nearest river and put them in the frozen river. I have a way to transport the supplies here."

Cang Mo looked at Chu Ci in surprise. He didn't expect that at this moment, his little fox still had a way. His little fox could always give her surprises.

Cang Mo quickly gave the order for this matter. After Chu Ci understood it, she wrote all the information on the letter, returned to her own yard, and sent the letter back to Tianji Pavilion using the carrier pigeon left for her by her senior brother.

But this still takes time. Can you really hold on for the rest of your life?

Chu Ci suddenly became a little suspicious.

Prince Rui was about to continue asking when Yunsheng came running over and said, "Master, the eunuch is here and wants you to go back."

Chu Ci glanced at Cang Mo, turned around and left.

She is not the kind of person who has to stick to men. After all, a certain distance can create beauty, but too long a distance can only create estrangement, at least that's what she thinks.

Cang Mo returned to the palace, and Chu Ci continued to deal with the next matters.

Two days later, Chu Ci was worried. She looked up at the sky and Lin Feng came running over. "Master, there is not much food left."

Chu Ci glanced at Lin Feng with understanding and took a deep breath. "Try to reduce the amount as much as possible. The porridge can be thinner. Try to hold on for two more days. The replenishment supplies should be arriving soon."

Lin Feng nodded. It seemed that this was the only way. "County Lady, should we report this to the emperor? Let's see if the emperor has any solution."

"This batch of supplies was collected by the Emperor, but the snowstorm is too severe. I have sent someone to pick it up. Calculating the time, it should be within the next two days."

Chu Ci thought for a moment and said, "I should report it to the emperor. What if the emperor has collected some supplies?"

Lin Feng agreed and went downstairs to make arrangements. It was almost time to cook, so if he went to tell them, he could save a meal.

As the food became less and less, rumors began to spread among the crowd, and some people even started to have ulterior motives.

Chu Ci was sitting in his little tent, worried that something might go wrong, when Lin Feng came with the problem.

"County Lady, can I come in?" Lin Feng asked while standing outside the door.

Chu Ci looked at the door outside and said, "Come in." His voice was filled with worry and fatigue.

"County Lady, something has happened. Rumors are spreading that we are running low on food. People are panicking, fearing a repeat of the last starvation incident."

Chu Ci sighed, after all, what they said was true.

In fact, it is very easy to break this rumor. Just show them the food.

But where did she get so much food? Five days had passed, and although the snow had begun to gradually decrease, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, so how small could it get?

Chu Ci felt that she was starting to have a headache again. Ever since she got involved in the royal family affairs, she started to have a headache. She was not living as happily as when she was in Tianji Pavilion.

"Since there's no food left, we must use some means to suppress them. Only with a heavy blow can there be stability. We must use the bright red to warn them, to tell them that there are some things they can't do. When the nest is destroyed, no one can survive."

"Just drag her to a crowded place, let people watch her, and freeze her to death."

Lin Feng wanted to persuade them, as they were their people. But when he thought about it, if they were not severely punished, chaos would break out and it would be difficult to control.

Chu Ci looked at Lin Feng, "Where is your master?"

Lin Feng saw Chu Ci's impatience. Yes, this kind of thing where you pay money but get no response and if you are not careful you will be cursed for eternity is not the responsibility of a princess.

"County Master, the border has been unstable. A war broke out two days ago. From what I heard, it doesn't seem to be going well. The Master is busy with these things."

Chu Ci sat down on the chair impatiently, "What about General Dingbei's two women? One was poisoned, and the other died within two days. They've been back for such a long time, and nothing happened. No, let them go back to fight."

Lin Feng shrank into the corner and didn't dare to speak.

Just then, something happened again!
