Prince Rui, don't spoil your adopted daughter too much: she will eventually get married
Chapter 18: Drunk, lack of water in the barracks
Zhai Yun quickly covered her mouth to muffle the sound of her hiccups.
Feng Chenyi squatted down slightly, and Zhai Yun climbed onto his back, hugged him tightly, and leaned on his strong shoulders.
Feng Chenyi felt Zhai Yun leaning on him, and asked softly as they walked, "If I hadn't come, would you have lost your way home?"
Zhai Yun lay on Feng Chenyi's back, feeling increasingly dizzy. She murmured, "Strange, why am I so dizzy? I wasn't that bad at drinking in my previous life."
Qi Nuo, who never spoke, supported Feng Chenyi and spoke for the first time: "If you drink, you will be blown away by the wind."
As for the words from the previous life, Qi Nuo just thought they were nonsense.
Only Feng Chenyi took it to heart. It turned out that this was not her first time drinking!
Before falling asleep, Zhai Yun asked, "Shouldn't you be at Mr. Rui's place?"
Feng Chenyi seemed to be tired and paused for a moment, "It's still the same as when I was a child, making me worry."
When Zhai Yun woke up the next day, she had a splitting headache and felt dizzy even when she stood up.
A hand supported Zhai Yun who had just stood up, "Young Master, you are awake. The prince told you to drink the sobering soup when you wake up and then go to the military camp to find him."
Zhai Yun was a little dazed. "Military camp? I finally got a break after three years, and it's over already?"
Qi Nuo didn't say anything else. He just conveyed the prince's meaning and handed the sobering soup to Zhai Yun to drink.
After a long pause, Zhai Yun changed into clean clothes and followed Qi Nuo. When they arrived at the military camp, General Shi was looking at a map of the area with Feng Chenyi.
When Zhai Yun walked into the tent, General Shi just glanced at her sideways and said, "You're sober now."
Feng Chenyi strode over and took off his cloak and put it on Zhai Yun. "You caught a cold last night, so wear more clothes."
Zhai Yun looked at General Shi, feeling a little embarrassed, and said with a chuckle, "The wine in Fengling City is more intoxicating than the wine in the imperial capital."
General Shi gave Zhai Yun a meaningful look and said, "You've tried the wine in the capital."
Zhai Yun's heart was in turmoil. She was just a child now and had been in the palace before coming here. How could she have the chance to drink the wine of the imperial capital?
Realizing that she had let the cat out of the bag, Zhai Yun hurriedly tried to make amends.
"The cold palace is very cold in winter, and drinking can warm your body. I asked someone to bring the wine from outside the palace." Feng Chenyi spoke first.
Seeing this, General Shi didn't say anything else, but continued to explain the surrounding environment to Feng Chenyi.
"Wind Bell City is located on the edge of the desert, with no grass growing anywhere within a ten-mile radius.
There are a total of thirteen strongholds of various sizes in the desert thirty miles to the north. Except for the Shatu Stronghold, which has been the most active in recent years, we don’t know the specific locations of the other strongholds.
There were few caravans on this route, and there were more wolves than meat. The caravans were robbed one after another, and it was difficult for them to survive.
Fengling City had water a few years ago, and farmers could still farm. Later, the water source dried up, and many people had no land to farm. They had to go to other places to make a living, leaving behind some elderly, weak, women and children.
The restaurant you drank in today is the only business in town."
When General Shi said the last sentence, he was looking at Zhai Yun, and there was obvious displeasure in his words, as if he was blaming Zhai Yun for being lazy and drinking.
Zhai Yun felt a little ashamed. In her previous life, she often drank alone when she was bored. After her rebirth, she got drunk the first time she drank.
And at this moment she is only a ten-year-old girl.
Feng Chenyi shook Zhai Yun's hand and said, "Don't be afraid."
General Shi looked at Feng Chenyi angrily, "You're so protective. On your first day as a disciple, you were late because you went out to look for her. You even got punished by Mr. Rui. She's only a few years old, and still... If you keep acting like this, will you ever be able to start a family?"
Zhai Yun lowered her head. No adult had ever taught her like General Shi did, and she was worried that she might have taken a wrong path.
Zhai Yun still had some respect for General Shi because he really treated Zhai Yun and Feng Chenyi as his own children.
Feng Chenyi wanted to speak again, but Zhai Yun pulled his sleeve and said submissively, "I won't dare to do that again next time."
Seeing Zhai Yunwei's submissive look, General Shi softened his tone and said, "If you have nothing to do, practice martial arts and read more."
Zhai Yun replied obediently, "I obey your command."
General Shi looked at Zhai Yun, then at Feng Chenyi, and with a look of disappointment, he threw down the things in his hands and walked out of the tent first, "Eat."
Feng Chenyi held Zhai Yun's hand tightly, looked at her expression, and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "If you listen to me like this, I will be less worried."
Zhai Yun acted coquettishly towards Feng Chenyi: "Haven't I always been very obedient?"
Feng Chenyi helplessly patted Zhai Yun's head and said the same thing as General Shi: "Eat."
Then he walked out without looking back.
In the previous life, Fengling City returned to peace under the leadership of Feng Chenyi. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, had water to drink and fields to farm, as if they had found a water source.
Zhai Yun walked out of the tent, followed by Qi Nuo, one on each side, and walked behind Feng Chenyi. When they arrived at the kitchen, the head cook came to report, "General Shi, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the camp need water every day, and they use a lot of water. This year is more dry than in previous years, and the water in the wells in the city will not last much longer."
The soldiers present panicked when they heard this, and there was a lot of discussion.
The weather in the Northern Wilderness is already dry, and the soldiers have to drink a lot of water during their hard training every day. Lack of water is more serious than lack of food.
Such an important matter was blurted out in public. Seeing the army's morale wavering, General Shi said calmly, "The water problem has been solved."
After saying that, General Shi turned around and returned to the tent without even eating, and Feng Chenyi followed him.
Zhai Yun brought the food back to the tent. As she reached the tent door, she heard General Shi sighing, "The weather this year is worse than ever. If it doesn't rain, there will probably be chaos in the camp."
Zhai Yun walked in with the food, placed it in front of the two of them, and said, "Wouldn't it be better if we could find a source of water?"
General Shi's brows furrowed even more when he heard what Zhai Yun said. "There's no grass growing around here, so where can we get water?"
If she had no memories of her past life, Zhai Yun really would not be able to answer General Shi's question.
Zhai Yun said affirmatively: "Yes, not to mention that this place is still some distance away from the desert, but if there is no water in the desert, how can the Tianjin Kingdom survive?"
When General Shi heard what Zhai Yun said, he was stunned, and then suddenly it became clear to him.
Feng Chenyi looked at Zhai Yun with approval, "Our Yun'er is getting smarter and smarter."
The situation was urgent, so the plan to find a water source was immediately launched.
The leader of the group just now obviously deliberately mentioned the water shortage in public.
General Shi has already spread the word that the water source problem has been solved, so the matter of finding a water source cannot be made public at this time. The hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the army are afraid that they will be used by people with ulterior motives.
