However, Shen Dongsu quickly adjusted his mood. Now was not the time to cry.

No matter what the reason was, Ling Moxiao left the city.

It all shows that Youzhou City is in danger, and he is in danger. I am too weak to help, so I can only do my best not to hold him back.

Since the reason given to her is to see the harbor, let’s just go see the harbor honestly.

After leaving the city, Shen Dongsu asked herself to ride a horse. She had to see the terrain from Youzhou to the seaside.

Think about the past life, this area was so prosperous that every inch of land was expensive, but in this era, it is still deserted.

It really gives people a sense of dislocation in time and space.

Yue Jian tied a scarf on her and protected her face just like Mo Xiujin, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.

Among the group of people, only Shen Linzhong didn't know anything. He was very happy to see the harbor.

Because my sister said earlier that there is a way to dry sea salt, which has a higher salt yield than making green salt.

Since he is a salt-making official, he naturally wants to do this job well and make more salt for King Ling, so that Youzhou City will never be short of salt!

Shen Linzhong is very aware of his abilities. He has not read many books and has no talent for reading. He will fall asleep after reading more difficult words.

He learned martial arts late, and compared with the fourth-level people, he probably wouldn't be able to catch up with him if he practiced for ten more years, and he wouldn't be able to lead troops on the battlefield.

But he is Princess Ling's sister, so it would be inappropriate to be a soldier, and he has no ability to lead a soldier, so he can only do some general affairs work.

Making salt is very good, not only can I take care of my sister at home, but I can also contribute to King Ling.

And he found that he liked this job very much. Mo Xiujin specially selected some ancient books on salt production for him, and he couldn't even doze off while reading them!

In addition, he learned carpentry from his father, and he also improved the tools for making salt, greatly improving efficiency.

Every time he saw poisonous salt turn into green salt, he felt a sense of accomplishment.

So he was looking forward to going to the beach and trying to turn the sea water into salt.

Although he was impatient, he had always been attentive to Dong Su, and he soon discovered that his sister was not in the right mood and her eyes were red.

He hurriedly went to ask Yue Jian quietly, because Jia Si did not come this time, and Yue Jian was in charge of the personal guards.

"What happened to the princess?"

Yue Jian shook his head: "I cried when I received Jiang Nan's letter."

Shen Linzhong was startled and asked Mo Xiujin first: "Xiao Pan, what happened to Big Fish?"

Mo Xiujin shook his head: "Big Fish is very good. Yangzhou Hospital has been built, so it was commended by the Yangzhou Prefect."

Shen Linzhong was about to ask Dong Su, but Mo Xiujin stopped him: "The princess is fine."

Shen Linzhong said anxiously: "My eyes are red from crying."

Mo Xiujin's eyes showed sadness: "It's just that I feel reluctant to part with the prince for a few days."

Shen Linzhong was embarrassed to ask more questions now. His sister and brother-in-law had a good relationship. What if Dong Su was shy if he asked more questions?

Just pay attention, wait until you get to the place to boil water for Dong Su to wash your face, and then go to get a curtain hat for Yue Jian to put on Dong Su. The closer to the sea, the stronger the wind and sand, so don't let your eyes wander.

On horseback, Dong Su looked back several times in the direction of Youzhou City. If he turned his horse around and rushed back now, what would happen to Ling Moxiao?

Didn't he always say that she could do whatever she wanted?

Then she wants to accompany him, wants to stay in Youzhou City, and doesn't want to be a burden! OK?

Reason prevented her from doing this. She was not a willful little woman.

You can't take your eldest brother and little brother Pan into danger!

It is four to five hundred miles to the nearest seaside, so we have to rest overnight on the way. That's why so many guards were sent to escort us.

Shen Dongsu's mind was confused that day. She had been thinking about Youzhou City and guessing what would happen in Youzhou City?

During the lunch break, in order not to worry others, she reluctantly ate half a piece of cake and hid half of it in her sleeve.

When they arrived at the camp in the evening, they lit a bonfire, Yue Jian went to tidy up the tent, and Shen Linzhong led others to cook dinner.

She then went to clean the little red horse herself and feed it some fodder.

This is what Ling Moxiao taught her, to develop a relationship with her mount.

Mo Xiujin, who had been observing carefully all day, was also brushing his horses. Only then did he vaguely feel that he had guessed wrong. Dong Su was in a low mood, maybe not just because of the breakup with the prince.

But he didn't know how to ask. Things between men and women were really something that no one except the person involved could empathize with.

I could only accompany her silently to brush the horses and feed them fodder. Dong Su has a habit from her previous life, when she is angry or afraid that she cannot control her emotions.

He will work to divert his attention. At this time, it is best to do some precise and time-consuming experiments in the laboratory.

Unfortunately, conditions do not allow it, so I can only brush horses.

After brushing her own, she also brushed her eldest brother's and Tsukimi's.

Seeing that she had the urge to keep painting like this, Mo Xiujin stopped her: "My hands will be frozen, so go back and warm yourself first."

The temperature difference between day and night was huge. Not only did he not feel it yet, he immediately felt the cold wind rushing straight into his neck, and the back of his head felt a dull pain from the wind.

She really wanted to talk to Mo Xiujin, so she put down the horse brushing tool and followed him to the fire.

After the two of them sat down, she wordlessly stretched out her hand to feel for her pulse.

Mo Xiujin sighed softly and whispered, "I'm fine."

But he still reached out his hand obediently, and Dong Su took his pulse carefully. There were indeed no symptoms of his madness.

It seemed that the medicine she prepared was very useful. It should be said that Mo Xiujin was already able to control his emotions and would not fall ill easily unless he was greatly stimulated.

But he has lost a lot of weight recently and is almost malnourished. Shen Dongsu sighed softly and said:

"No matter what, you still have to eat on time. Cousin, you have to eat well!"

Mo Xiujin laughed and pointed at her sleeve: "When the miracle doctor says this to a patient, shouldn't he do it?"

Shen Dongsu took out the half piece of cake, held it with branches and set it on the fire to bake. Brushing horses was a physical job, and she was hungry.

Mo Xiujin thought for a moment and asked, "Are you and the prince okay?"

Shen Dongsu shook his head: "It's okay!"

But soon, a desire to talk came over her. She really wanted to have a good chat with others, and Mo Xiujin was the most suitable person.

While turning the cake in her hand, she asked: "Brother Xiao Pan, let me ask you."

"If Sister Ayuan is by your side and you are about to encounter something dangerous and you have to stay and deal with it, will you let Sister Ayuan stay?"

Under the firelight, Mo Xiujin's eyes were extremely gentle, as if just thinking of Sister Ayuan brought him great comfort.

"I'll get her to a safe place."

Shen Dongsu chuckled, are all men like this?

"But have you ever thought that Sister Ayuan wants to stay and face it with you?"

Mo Xiujin shook his head: "No matter what happens to her, I will not let her be in danger!"

Shen Dongsu choked, thought about it and asked again:

"Then if Sister Ayuan encounters trouble and has to stay, and she wants to send you to a safe place, what will you do?"

Mo Xiujin raised his eyebrows: "Of course it can't be like this! No matter what it is, I have to face it with her!"

Shen Dongsu was full of resentment, biting into the cake as fiercely as possible, and then said after finishing the meal: "You men really have double standards!"

"Why can you choose to face it together, but let us women live in vain? What qualifications do you have to make the decision for us?"

"I have to make my own decision whether to leave or stay!"

"Instead of you being aloof, putting on an expression of 'I'm doing this for your own good', and making decisions privately!"

Mo Xiujin said nothing. Only now did he understand what Dong Su was angry about.

However, I still have to say something for the prince: "He will be distracted when you are in the city."

Shen Dongsu stared at him: "What about now? Is he not distracted anymore?"

She didn't even realize it, tears were flowing out again.

Really not crying! She had this physique in her previous life, and the original owner also had this physique. She shed tears when she was angry.

As a result, quarrels are never won.

While chewing the baked pancake, she wiped her tears with the back of her hand.

There is still a little bit of Princess Ling’s appearance! Mo Xiujin seemed to have returned to his childhood, when Dong Su's cousin was still a little girl, crying and eating like this.

Suddenly, her voice revealed grievance and unwillingness:

"Brother Xiao Pan, if Sister Ayuan says she wants to live and die with you and insists on staying and facing you together, will you let her stay?"

Mo Xiujin thought carefully for a long time and shook his head again: "I would rather she live and hate me than die with a lunatic like me!"

"Ayuan deserves to be happy, she is such a good girl."

Shen Dong said anxiously: "But if Sister Ayuan would rather have nothing, what about you? Don't her thoughts matter?"

Mo Xiujin was silent again, but he soon thought of something wrong:

"A Yuantian and I are on different sides and cannot express our feelings."

"You and the prince are together day and night, why don't you communicate well?"

Shen Dongsu was silent this time. Could she say it was because she was too busy?

She knew very well that this was not the reason. She used to think that the contract between husband and wife was her protection.

But now, that contract seems to have become a barrier, and there is a veil between the two. Although they are close at hand, their hearts cannot be close.

She wanted to take the initiative, but she really didn't know what to do.

She thought that since the last time Ling Mo Xiao confessed his love, their relationship would be like firewood if they met again after more than a year apart.

Unexpectedly, after arriving in Youzhou, the flames of longing for each other gradually extinguished after seeing each other.

Ling Moxiao was more polite to her than before and cared more about the contract than she did.

What is he thinking now? She couldn't have guessed it at all.

So she couldn't forcefully say that she wanted to stay, and no matter what happened, she had to face it with him...

so hard! Falling in love is more difficult than studying medicine!

At this moment, a whistle suddenly sounded, and the guards who were busy setting up camp immediately became alert.

Mo Xiujin extinguished the bonfire and escorted Shen Dongsu to the stable. Yue Jian rushed over and said to Mo Xiujin and Shen Linzhong:

"Protect the princess and stay hidden!"

Shen Dongsu asked hurriedly: "What's going on? Is it a Tatar?"

Yue Jian shook his head: "I don't know who they are yet. It's too late to retreat, so I'll ambush them first."

Retreating in the wilderness late at night is even more dangerous. It is easy to encounter Tatar teams or wild beasts.

Mo Xiujin and Shen Linzhong protected her on the left and right, and led their horses to retreat into the distant woods with a small team.

This position is close enough to attack and escape, but Yue Jian wants to lead a team in an ambush, which worries Shen Dongsu.

At the same time, she discovered that A4 did not come, which meant that Youzhou needed A4 even more. The situation Ling Moxiao faced was more dangerous than she imagined.

too weak! Still too weak!

Just relying on poverty to earn food, cotton clothes, making briquettes, business, and infrastructure...

These are indeed crucial to the development of Youzhou, but they are too slow!

As soon as the enemy came, all her efforts were immediately in vain, and they were of no use at all.

What she wants is to develop slowly, but the enemy won't give you this condition!

The most important thing is to arm the army first! If we had powerful weapons, would we still be afraid of the Tatars?

Before she came, she was thinking about sea salt, but now, she was thinking about weapons!

They hid in the woods for a long time, and no sound of killing was heard. That's when Shen Linzhong decided to check out the situation.

The whistle sounded again, which was the sound of the alert being lifted.

The guards were overjoyed: "We won."

Just as he was about to go out, he was stopped by Mo Xiujin: "We must be on guard! What if the enemy catches one of our people and lures the princess out?"

Several people became alert again, and then Yue Jian came in person: "Princess, you are not an enemy."

Not enemies, but Tsukimi tied up all the members of the team.

There are quite a lot of people in the team, more people than their team! But there were only a small number of soldiers, and the others were dressed as slaves.

The leader seemed to be a eunuch, and he kept shouting: "We are from the East Palace. If you dare to tie up our family, His Royal Highness will chop off your heads!"

In the cold wind, his voice was blown so high and thin that it made people's skin crawl.

Now Shen Dongsu knew why he was not an enemy and Yue Jian had kidnapped someone.

With this mouth, it would be a mercy not to cut off his tongue!

Seeing the princess coming, the guards quickly blocked the mouth of the dead eunuch with rags, fearing that he would say something crazy and disturb the princess.

The eunuch immediately recognized Shen Dongsu, and then he realized that he had kicked the iron plate, but he thought that he was now representing the prince.

His neck was still stretched out straight, and he kept staring at Shen Dongsu, whining and yelling something.

Shen Dongsu asked Yue Jian: "Is this a new spy?"

The East Palace is too subpar! Send such a spy to inquire about the situation in Youzhou?

Yue Jian shook his head, and then looked happy, leading Shen Dongsu to go forward and see, only dozens of carts of supplies were tied up tightly.

Tsukimi used a knife to open the hemp rope and lifted up the oilcloth. The contents were revealed. There were boxes of gold and silver jewelry, but more of them turned out to be fur materials and cotton!

No wonder Yue Jian, who had always been cold and cold, smiled so happily. Shen Dongsu himself was grinning from ear to ear. This was really what he lacked.

Before she left Youzhou City, she was worried about warm clothes for winter every day! I was so worried that my hair started to fall out.

She didn’t expect God to send her such a large amount of supplies! God indeed has a spirit!

Yue Jian said happily: "Most of the dozens of cars are made of furs and cotton, and the gold and silver are enough to buy a cotton coat for everyone in Youzhou!"

Shen Dongsu clasped his hands together and said to the sky: "Thank you God for your help. The messenger girl has so many gifts!"

When the dead eunuch heard this, he struggled even harder.

What kind of help from God?

This is something from the East Palace! This is a gift for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!
