Ye Huaijue rode a carriage into the city gate of Jiaguan. Duan Qingyi did not speak a word unless necessary along the way.

"Find a teahouse to rest ahead."

"it is good."

Ye Huaijue's eyes flashed and he responded.

"Mu Bai, go to the teahouse in front."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Sir, please come inside. May I have a private seat on the second floor or a box on the third floor?"

"In the private dining room on the second floor, have a nice pot of Biluochun."

"Okay, please wait a moment, sir."

The tea house was just starting to play at this hour, and it was very crowded and lively.

"Qingyi is familiar with this place?"

"I'm not familiar with it, it's my first time here."

The two sat for a while, relatively speechless.

"Qingyi, if you have rested well, let's go back."

"Yeah." Duan Qingyi stood up.

"Slow down, guest."

The waiter came over to clear the table, reached into the slit under the table, and took out the note.

General's Mansion Study Room

"Muchun, is there anything unusual in the military camp after His Highness returned to the capital?"

"Your Highness, there is nothing unusual as always."

"Your Highness, I have something that I don't know whether to talk about or not?"

"Mu Bai, what do you have to say?" Ye Huaijue looked at Mu Bai's hesitant expression and felt doubtful.

"Your Highness, when I parked the carriage at the back door of the teahouse, I saw Deputy Xue walking out the back door." Diners in serious places rarely use the back door.

"Xue Yi? Go and find out what you are doing in the teahouse." The Mu family's collaboration with the enemy must be investigated as soon as possible. Everyone is suspected of this.

"Yes, Your Highness."

When Mu Chaochao returned to Xining, the family returned to their busy days. Su Linyuan took Mu Chaochao out to see the topography of Xining.

During the day, everyone in the Mu family went out to work, and Ye Huai Yao followed the father and daughter on his new mount.

Chu Gui now has to serve Ye Huai Yao and the donkey. The donkey needs to be cleaned every day and fed well.

It is strange to say that the donkey let Ye Huai Yao, a novice, ride it and lead it wherever it wanted. Chu Gui fed and cleaned it, and the donkey barked and sprayed him with water.

"Chaochao, this is the largest wasteland in Xining."

What you see is a large undulating Gobi desert. The vast Gobi desert is covered with coarse sand and gravel. Strong winds blow up sand and rocks, and a piece of yellow sand is rolled up into the sky.

Mu Chaochao got off the carriage, took out the mask, put it on, and stepped on it, making a rustling sound on the ground.

Only a few exiled prisoners were working sparsely.

"Dad, it may take decades to cultivate here just by improving the soil. I think greenhouse cultivation would be better."

"What is greenhouse cultivation?" Ye Huai Yao was curious.

"It is to build a glass house here to isolate the cold air from outside, but it is not possible to use the current glass. The glass must be transparent so that the sunlight can shine in."

When she was in China, she went to museums to view cultural relics. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, glass had actually appeared.

There was one in this era, but it was not pure enough. She still had the method of making glass hidden in her head.

"Can the soil be transported from other places?"

"Yes, daddy, you can put the soil in gunny bags elsewhere and plant it directly in the gunny bags or find other containers with good air permeability."

"Little princess, this is wonderful." Chu Gui praised.

"But the outside still needs to be renovated, and afforestation still needs to be done. There is also a water source."

The most important thing for developing agriculture in the Gobi, apart from the climate, is the water source. Water source is quite difficult.

“You can dig rivers flowing down snow-capped mountains.”

It’s just that the water in the snow-capped mountains alone is not enough. Water can only be found after rainfall and strong flow of water.

"Dad, let's open the river and have underground water."

"it is good."

"That's Miss Mu." Not far away, Mei Baoli saw Mu Chaochao throwing down his hoe and running over.

"What are you doing? If you go back and bump into the noble man, can you bear it?"

Mayberry was intercepted by the supervisor.

"Sir, I know that girl. She is the Miss Mu family who was exiled to the northwest with us. Can I go talk to her?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? That's the little princess from the Prince's Palace in the north. Go back to work."

"Little princess? How did she become a little princess?"

After the Mei family arrived in the northwest, they were assigned to work here. Except for the people in the third room who occasionally exchanged money for rest, they had no chance to leave here, and they didn't know anything about the outside world.

"Sir, I really know her. She is Mu Chaochao. Please let me see her. I beg you."

Although Mu Chaochao covered his face, she could still recognize his figure and eyes.

"Go back, or my whip will be merciless."

"Baoli, what are you doing? Come back quickly." They knew about Li's affairs, and she was afraid that her daughter would not stop talking.

"Auntie, I'm looking for Mu Chaochao."

"I don't even think about your identity and you still want to find our little princess? Go back quickly."

Ma Baoli couldn't bear to be pulled and shouted: "Little princess, little princess, ugh..."

Mei Baoli's mouth was covered, but Mu Chaochao still heard the sound and looked over.

"Little Princess."

Ma Baoli pulled down the hand that was covering her mouth. When she saw Mu Chaochao looking towards her, she got the energy to break free and ran to kneel down in front of Mu Chaochao.

"Little Princess, I am May Baoli. Please take me in. I am willing to sell myself as a slave to serve you."

She really couldn't stand the life here. She had to do heavy work every day and worked in the cold wind. Her face and hands were very rough.

The girl who was exiled here had no choice but to work as a military prostitute in the military camp. She was very envious of Maybelline for joining the Mu family early.

May Baoli believed that Mu Chaochao would accept her even if she was crazy at the time, so he would definitely accept her as well.

It had been so long since they last met, and Mu Chaochao almost didn't recognize Mei Baoli.

"what can you do?"

"I can play the piano, no, no, I can wait on people."

"I have no shortage of people to serve."

"My little princess, it's because of my humble position that I didn't take good care of the prisoner. I'm humble and will take him away now."

"No, little princess, please accept me, I don't want to stay here anymore." Mayberry cried loudly.

Mu Chaochao didn't have a good impression of the Mei family. Mei Baoli was taken away by the supervisor, but she didn't stop her.

"Why can Maybelline do it but I can't?"

"and many more."

"Little Princess." May Baoli looked at her expectantly.

"Why did Mrs. Li go to Mrs. Xue and her daughter?"

"I do not know."

"Little princess, Mrs. Li pretended to be seriously ill, stole the money from the third house and ran out. We didn't know she would do that in advance."

Seeing that Mrs. Xue and her daughter were doing well, Mrs. Li wanted to please Mrs. Xue, but Mrs. Xue didn't want to see her face and drive her away.

Ms. Li told the story about Maybelline, and now she has been beaten thirty times and is still half-dead in a prison.

"Little Princess, what Li did has nothing to do with us. Little Princess, please take me in."

"I'm not short of people." After Mu Chaochao said that, he turned and left.

She only looks for capable people. There are so many miserable people in the world, and she can't sympathize with them.

"Why can't I?"

Mei Baoli cried and shouted, begging Mu Chaochao to take her in. This was the only way she could think of.

"Okay, go to work quickly." The supervisor whipped her.

"Sir, we're going right away. Don't fight. Baoli, get up quickly."

Ma Baoli also fell silent after this incident and went back to work silently.
