Prince Rui, don't spoil your adopted daughter too much: she will eventually get married

Zhai Yun knew that Feng Chenyi was afraid that she would worry. Even if she asked again, she would not get anything out of him. So she simply asked Qi Nuo who was standing beside her: "Has the canal construction been going smoothly these past two days?"

Qi Nuo looked at Feng Chenyi and saw that he was sipping his wine nonchalantly. He spoke after careful consideration, "The completion date is approaching. The prince has been studying the blueprints over and over again these past two days and found that all this water will eventually flow into the desert. It's a pity."

"How could that be?" Zhai Yun walked to the desk and flipped through the messy drawings, finally finding the overview map of the water diversion channel.

Zhai Yun looked at it carefully for a moment, then brought the blueprint to Feng Chenyi and pointed out the details: "Dig a reservoir at the end of each water source, and set up a diversion point at the outlet. When a single reservoir is full, divert the water from the outlet.

We have also set up diversion diversion points outside the valley. When the reservoirs are full, water will be diverted from the valley, so that water will not be wasted."

Qi Nuo suddenly understood and seemed a little excited. "Reservoir. That's right! With a reservoir, not only will water not be wasted, but there will also be no water shortage when water demand is high."

Feng Chenyi's eyes lit up, and he took the blueprint back to his desk and continued drawing. "Give orders. Order all soldiers on completed sections of road to go to the ends of the canals in each village to dig and repair reservoirs. The sooner the better."

Zhai Yun looked at Feng Chenyi who was still busy, and could only drink alone. She felt sleepy due to the alcohol and fell asleep on the table in a daze.

When I woke up, it was already early morning. The room was empty. Zhai Yun was lying on the only bed in the tent, covered with a quilt.

Qi Nuo walked in with water for washing his face, and looked at Zhai Yun with eyes full of admiration. "Young Master is truly remarkable. Even the old craftsman who has been repairing the canal for decades praised the method you proposed. Your Highness and you are so young, yet you know more than many adults."

When Zhai Yun heard Qi Nuo's praise, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed. Feng Chenyi's intelligence was the result of his accumulated experience, while Zhai Yun's was just an accidental achievement.

Qi Nuo was only a few years older than Feng Chenyi. "Can't you understand it too?"

Qi Nuo smiled ashamedly after hearing this, "I have been following the prince and watching a lot these days, so I have understood a little bit."

Zhai Yun washed her face, put on her clothes, and walked out of the tent. The ditches here were already in the final stage of construction. As long as the reservoir and diversion were completed, water could flow through.

"Your Highness, did you not sleep last night?" He was gone when Zhai Yun got up this morning.

"I rested for an hour before dawn and slept with you. Didn't you know, young master?" The people in the military camp were light sleepers, so they should have noticed someone approaching them.

Zhai Yun rubbed his head and said, "I drank a lot and fell into a deep sleep."

Qi Nuo was a little surprised when he heard this. The prince was obviously very good to the young master, but the young master was only ten years old and often got drunk. The prince didn't even try to persuade him and even took the initiative to buy wine for him. He really didn't know what the prince was thinking.

But the young master's alcohol tolerance is really good. Ordinary children don't know how to drink much, and even the prince only takes a few sips, but the young master can drink a whole jar of wine by himself.

Zhai Yun walked around the entire camp but didn't see Feng Chenyi. After asking carefully, she found out that he had gone to supervise the construction of the reservoir.

The reservoir and diversion were built at the same time. Out of curiosity, Zhai Yun went to the place marked on the map outside the valley to see how the diversion was built.

It was built according to mechanical technology. There are gears at the connection between the diversion stone and the ditch. By shaking the gears, the diversion stone can be raised and lowered.

He just suggested that the flow could be blocked, but within one night, Feng Chenyi had already figured out a way to block the flow, which showed how much effort he put in.

Zhai Yun suddenly felt that she should work hard too. Feng Chenyi has been working hard over the years, and she has been living a comfortable life every day under his protection.

Zhai Yun took out two books she had taken from Feng Chenyi's mother's palace, the Hidden Weapon Map and the Business Records. The Hidden Weapon Map had been damaged, and all the hidden weapons she had on her were made according to the books.

Zhai Yun was flipping through the business records, which recorded Chen Fei's own business experience, how to find business opportunities, cultivate talents, and the business that the five major countries in the entire continent could do.

The things inside are rich and colorful, and Zhai Yun finds many of them very practical. She doesn't know how to cultivate the six big ones now, so it's a good opportunity to learn.

After looking and thinking, Zhai Yun wrote down all the useful methods on a piece of paper.

After waiting for a whole day without seeing Feng Chenyi, Zhai Yun said goodbye to Qi Nuo and prepared to return to the escort agency.

"The prince has ordered that if you wish to return, let me escort you."

Seeing that the drinking water channel was almost built, Zhai Yun agreed to let Qi Nuo take her back to the escort agency.

When they returned to the city and passed the secret room in the general's mansion, Qi Nuo took out a mask from somewhere and put it on his head. The mask was a different color from Zhai Yun's mask. Zhai Yun's mask was silver, and his was black.

When they returned to the escort agency, it was dinner time. When Zhai Yun and Qi Nuo walked out of the house, they saw six big ones. Dayi stayed behind to continue guarding.

The other five people and Zhai Yun prepared to go to the front hall to have dinner together. When they arrived at the front hall, they saw the dirt and mess on the ground. The newly recruited thugs and strong men had nothing to do, some were eating melon seeds, some were playing cards.

When they saw Zhai Yun and Qi Nuo walk in, they just took a look and showed no fear.

The kitchen was still busy, but the handyman was nowhere to be found.

The six big men were guarding Zhai Yun's house and had no time to take care of these people. After all, so much gold and silver were carried into Zhai Yun's house, and lax guarding would easily arouse suspicion.

Furthermore, Zhai Yun said that once she entered the house, no one would be allowed to approach.

Seeing the undisciplined people in the front hall, the five assassins knelt down and apologized. The people who were summoned looked at their awed expressions and laughed at them.

Zhai Yun looked at them and asked softly, "How have they been practicing martial arts these past few days?"

Da Er's face was a little ugly, but he had to answer: "To the escort leader, these people are unwilling to learn martial arts because they find it tiring."

"Where is the odd job?" Zhai Yun looked at the junior.

Dasan looked around and said, "To reply to the escort leader, you have rarely appeared in the past few days. The caravans that came here have been turned away, and they have started to be lazy."

Zhai Yun looked outside the house. The dogs should have had dinner at this hour, but the kitchen of the escort agency was still busy. She didn't know when the food would be ready.

Zhai Yun asked the second and third years to carry up the box of silver. When they heard about silver, the thugs and strong men who had just acted as if it had nothing to do with them began to secretly prick up their ears.

The silver stand was lifted up, and Zhai Yun ordered them to pour out a box of silver. The white silver was scattered on the ground. The servants and thugs who came after hearing the noise were stunned, and the people in the kitchen also came out.

Zhai Yun scolded harshly:
