Gourmet Girl: Becoming a Royal Merchant Started from Selling Buns
Chapter 158: Love is like a new marriage after a short separation
Every word Su An said pierced Xia Yuandao's heart, causing his expression to change again and again.
He rushed over in a hurry after hearing the news because he saw that the King of Zhenbei was seriously injured and had not yet woken up. He wanted to take the opportunity to take credit and take away the Blood Lotus Sect, and preferably take the King away with him.
If the prince recovers and wakes up, he can reward him according to his merits. Even if the prince is seriously ill, he has done his best and may be able to take all the credit.
Anyway, things have come to this point and we can only give up. At the very least, it is better than being liquidated after the disaster has subsided.
But Su An actually said that he could make up for his sins with his merits?
"Do you have any solution?" Having said that, Xia Yuandao didn't put on airs and stared at Su An in disbelief.
Seeing his reaction, Su An felt relieved and raised the corners of his lips, revealing a confident aura.
"The governor has seen it too. I'm quite popular here, and the prince also thinks highly of me, otherwise he wouldn't have handed the royal order over to me."
Her eyes sparkled, and she said contentedly, "When Prince Xiao wakes up, I'll tell you that the governor has done his utmost to protect you, and has devoted himself to redressing injustices and his work. Your Highness will surely look upon you with a new eye."
"Governor, please think carefully. Should you continue to stubbornly disobey the prince, which could lead to a clash of swords and ultimately lead to disaster? Or should you join us in striving for the well-being of the people of Jinzhou?"
At this moment, Su An's calm voice seemed to carry magic, causing Xia Yuandao's heart to tremble suddenly.
Could he also have a share in the drought relief?
Solving the drought is a huge achievement! Promotion and wealth are just around the corner!
"Hahaha! The princess is truly brave and resourceful. I admire you!"
In an instant, Xia Yuandao thought of the answer. He smiled heartily, dismounted, and walked forward to chat with Su An enthusiastically.
The rapid change of expression made everyone present twitch their eyes and look at Su An in surprise.
What happened to the governor who was about to draw his sword? Was he eaten by her?
All the soldiers looked at each other and thought that their princess was really capable!
If Su An knew what everyone was thinking, he would definitely hold out his nervous heart and show it to them.
Life depends entirely on acting skills. The arrow is on the string, she has to show off her acting skills!
Fortunately, she was able to speak differently to different people to different people, and soon Xia Yuandao was so happy about his imaginary merit that he lost his mind.
When Zhou Yue received the news and rushed over, he saw Su An and Xia Yuandao chatting happily in the tent:
"Your Excellency, the Governor has no other choice but to act. I understand. It's really hard work."
"No, no, no! Miss Su is the lucky star of the common people. If it weren't for you, I would have made a big mistake!"
Zhou Yue: “…”
The stern square face almost couldn't hold it together.
After sending Xia Yuandao away with some false courtesy, he asked Su An and found out the whole story.
Zhou Yue's eyes immediately flashed with admiration: "Miss Su is extremely intelligent and remains calm in the face of danger. This is truly admirable."
If this happened to that spoiled fool Zhou Li, he would probably have led his troops to fight against Jinzhou!
"These are just some street tricks. I dare not show them off in front of the Marquis." Su An lowered his eyes modestly.
The more Zhou Yue looked at her, the more satisfied he felt. He nodded and sighed, "Qingfeng said that the prince's health has stabilized and he can move the carriage. He will be taken back to the city to recuperate and will leave later."
"Miss Su cares about the prince, but drought relief efforts must continue. I hope Miss Su will put the water diversion plan on the agenda as soon as possible after returning, and not delay the important matter of people's livelihood. I will also stay to assist Miss Su for the time being."
When Su An mentioned Fu Zhun, his heart sank and he felt uncomfortable.
According to Xie Qingfeng, Fu Zhun was seriously injured and it was unknown when he would wake up.
"...I will follow your orders, Lord."
Zhou Yue was decisive and efficient. After returning to Jizhou City, he continued the South-to-North Water Diversion Project with Su An, and the bamboo dam water diversion project was handed over to Zhou Li.
Small and medium-sized water wheels were initially built, and every mountain, river, valley and gully became the focus of their attention. They led a group of energetic craftsmen and people to travel through the woods and fields every day.
After half a month of unremitting efforts, the water shortage problem in the city was finally temporarily solved.
After finishing her work that day, Su Anru went into the room as usual and wiped Fu Zhun's limbs and massaged his hands and feet.
His hair was scattered a little messily on the pillow. The inky black hair formed a sharp contrast with his pale skin, adding a bit of cool handsomeness.
It’s a pity... He has been in a coma for half a month.
Su An looked at Fu Zhun like this for half a month, but he still couldn't calm down.
A slight sour taste meandered through my eyes, and my eyes turned red inadvertently.
"I work myself to death every day and still have to serve you, my uncle. When you wake up and reward me, I must take the lion's share..."
While Su An was chattering, he undressed Fu Zhun and massaged his skin skillfully with his slender fingertips.
In a daze, Fu Zhun felt a pair of gentle hands sliding across his body.
His consciousness was still a little hazy, but he could feel the soothing force relaxing his tired limbs.
He slowly opened his eyes, and his vision gradually became clearer, and he saw that familiar and pretty profile. The corners of her eyes were stained with a hint of crimson, like a peach in March, which made his eyes tremble.
"Su... An?"
"Let me tell you, there's only a temporary water shortage. If we want to completely manage the Jizhou River, we have to open it up first... huh?"
Su An was muttering with his head buried when he suddenly heard this low, hoarse voice and was stunned without reacting.
She turned her head foolishly and met Fu Zhun's deep black eyes, and the handkerchief in her hand fell down immediately.
"You're awake? You're really awake! Am I not dreaming?"
However, that burning gaze that never blinked reminded Su An that this was not a dream.
After a long while, her nose suddenly felt sore, and the surprise after she came to her senses made her rush over instantly.
"Oh my god, I finally woke up. You can really sleep well! Who are you trying to scare to death?"
Su An cursed, but she couldn't control her tears that fell like broken strings. She buried herself in Fu Zhun's arms and cried out loudly, all the worries and anxieties of the past few days.
She was so anxious, so worried, and so tired, but finally Fu Zhun woke up!
Fu Zhun could not hide his surprise in his eyes. He wanted to move, but found that his whole body was weak and he couldn't even wipe away his tears.
His throat rolled, and he quickly softened his voice and said teasingly, "Alright, alright. I'm all good now. It seems you've taken good care of me."
"I'll rest assured if I leave it to you."
He had intended to tease the aggrieved little girl, but as soon as he finished speaking, a "tsk" sound suddenly came from the door.
"The young boss was crying and making such a fuss that I almost thought something had happened to the prince. It turns out the prince I'd been thinking about had woken up. The young couple's separation was like a reunion!"
Zhou Li said this as he stepped into the door. Although it was a nonsensical joke, his face was filled with obvious joy and relief.
Xie Qingfeng was behind them, but he looked at Su An and the others with disgust and was unwilling to go in.
"It's broad daylight, pay attention to the atmosphere!"
Su An then realized that Fu Zhun had taken off his shirt, and she buried her nose and tears in his tense chest...
She sat up suddenly, her face flushed instantly!
