The Almighty Princess just wants to farm

Dongfang Li carefully picked the remaining zinnias and put them into the boxes prepared in advance.

On the way out of the cave, Nangong Xu kept holding Dongfang Li. Only in extremely narrow places would he put her down and let her go by herself.

"The air outside is still fresh."

Dongfang Li took a deep breath, and then exhaled with satisfaction.

"It's cold outside. Let's go down the mountain and rest first. When we get a chance, I can take Ali to climb this snow-capped mountain, okay?"

Nangong Xu took out a large cloak from his baggage and put it directly on Dongfang Li. He carefully put on her hat, fearing that she would catch the cold.

"Did the prince only bring a cloak in his luggage?"

"In addition to the cloak, I also brought food before, but now I don't have any."

Nangong Xu stretched out his big hand, held Dongfang Li's catkins, and walked down the mountain cautiously step by step.

It is easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down. The ancients do not deceive me.

Dongfang Li couldn't help but sigh in her heart. During the process of going down the mountain, the force of gravity on her knees was three times her own body weight. Although she weighed very little, she had lost too much blood before, so when she went down to the foot of the mountain, Dongfang Li's body was exhausted. Trembling.

"Come up!"

Nangong Xu walked in front of Dongfang Li and lowered himself with his back to her.

"Thank you, my lord."

Although he said it was hard work, Dongfang Li lay directly on his back.

"Ali has lost weight. I need to make up for it after I go back."

"Women think thin is beautiful, don't they?"

Dongfang Li hugged Nangong Xu's neck, her broad back firm and warm.

"It's dogs who like bones..."

After reacting for a while, Dongfang Li burst out laughing.

Probably because he had been with Dongfang Li for a long time, even Nangong Xu had learned to speak earthy love words.

However, Dongfang Li found that she liked Nangong Xu better, because he looked like a normal person, a person with seven emotions and six desires.

"Then after returning this time, the prince will be very busy."

"Ok?"

"Look at me eating, don't you think I'm thin? How about giving you a chance to make me fat?"

"it is good."

When they returned to the inn, Xunyang and others who came back first had prepared hot water and food. After a simple wash, everyone sat together again.

"What's going on in the capital during this time?"

Nangong Xu asked Lu Chuan and others while filling Dongfang Li with soup.

"Back to your lord, neither you nor the princess attended the palace banquet on the [-]th. Although the king did not show any dissatisfaction, there was news from people in the palace that the king was ready to be held accountable."

"Accountability?"

Dongfang Li put down the soup bowl and looked doubtfully at Lu Chuan who was reporting the situation.

"Back to the princess, the prince is a general, so you need to report before leaving the emperor. You can only do so with the king's permission, and you must return within the specified time."

"Oh... to put it bluntly, the prince now has a large number of troops, and he is worried that his position will not be guaranteed."

Dongfang Li sneered. Nangong Hefeng was probably the first to achieve this level of being a king.

"Ali……"

Nangong Xu rubbed Dongfang Li's head.

"Understood, I just don't say it."

Dongfang Li held back his mouth, held his rice bowl and lowered his head to eat, no longer interfering in the conversation between them.

--

After resting in the inn for three days, Dongfang Li's complexion finally recovered.

Dongfang Li was not idle these three days. He first processed the black wings of the dream butterfly, dried them, crushed them, and then mixed them with other medicinal materials to make pills, which Nangongxu took three times.

The zinnias brought back have been dehydrated, and now the lotus petals have been dried. These dried lotus petals were put into a small box by Nangong Xu, who carried it with him every day and took it three times a day. .

"Your Majesty, should we go back?"

"Ali, are you homesick?"

Nangong Xu sat in front of the window with Dongfang Li in his arms. The sunshine outside was very good today. With half the window open, he could just see the snow-capped mountains opposite.

Dongfang Li shook her head and moved in his arms, leaning against him in a more comfortable position.

"I don't miss home... because wherever Ah Xu is, it is my home..."

"it is good……"

Nangong Xu kissed Dongfang Li's cheek and tightened his arms around her slightly.

Early the next morning.

"Your Majesty, urgent report from Yecheng."

There was a quick knock on the door, and Xunfeng's voice was filled with anxiety.

"Enter."

Nangong Xu walked out from behind the screen while arranging his clothes.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Yecheng. It has been snowing heavily for several days in a row. Many crops, livestock and people have been frozen to death."

Nangong Xu took the secret report handed over by Xunfeng and browsed it quickly.

"Yecheng is close to the border, and there are several heavy snowfalls every year. Why is the disaster so serious this year?"

"If this heavy snow has caused casualties to humans and animals, then Yecheng will face an even greater disaster after the snow..."

Dongfang Li came out from behind the screen with her hair disheveled, sat directly next to Nangong Xu, took the secret report in his hand and took a look.

"If the news is true, by the time it reaches the imperial capital, there will probably have been a large number of casualties."

"Ali just said that there will be a greater disaster after the snow. What did you mean?"

Nangong Xu knew that since she said this, it must be possible.

"plague……"

Dongfang Li's cold face was full of seriousness, and a look of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

"If it's a plague...then this matter must be dealt with seriously."

Behind Yecheng is the border. Once a plague breaks out in Yecheng, the soldiers on the border will definitely be affected. If the soldiers are unfortunately infected, then the empire of the Dadu Dynasty will be in danger...

The problem that Nangong Xu thought of was obviously something that Dongfang Li also thought of, so she showed a helpless look.

Obviously she just wants to be a lazy princess, but now things always happen one after another, and she can't escape these things.

"What do Ali think?"

"The soldiers on the border have been with their fathers for many years, and they also have parents, wives and children waiting for them to return. If the court gets news of the outbreak and sends people to deal with it, I am afraid that the entire Ye city will be in crisis."

Dongfang Li stood up, found a hair tie and tied her long dark hair into a high ponytail, then turned around and ordered Xunfeng who was waiting at the side.

"You go notify everyone and pack your things immediately. We will set off for Yecheng immediately."

"Yes, Princess, I will take care of it now."

"and many more……"

Nangong Xu stopped Xunfeng who was about to leave.

"Notify everyone to pack their things and set off after breakfast."

"Yes, my lord."

Only then did Xunfeng realize that it was barely dawn and no one had woken up yet, let alone eating, and the reason why he was awake was because of the night watch.

"You are still thoughtful..."
