The female cannon fodder in the book, the villain instantly turned into a pitiful and coquettish gir

After Liu Yaoyao repaired the canal in Zhou Town, the entire Nanyang water conservancy system was completely renewed, as if the earth was covered with a layer of gorgeous brocade.

Although it is almost summer, the enthusiasm of the people has not diminished in the slightest, like burning torches, illuminating this fertile land.

Liu Yaoyao stood in the fields, looking at the scene before her, her heart filled with relief.

She thought to herself: "It seems that my efforts have not been in vain. The people can finally grow crops in peace and live a stable life."

People tried to grow various crops. Some planted green rice, some planted yellow corn, and some planted sweet potatoes, purple sweet potatoes and potatoes.

There is a busy and joyful scene in the fields.

Liu Yaoyao looked at the busy figures of the people and couldn't help but walk up to them and talk to them.

She asked an old man who was plowing the field: "Uncle, what are you going to plant this year?"

The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile: "Miss Liu, I plan to plant more corn and rice this year. Now that the canal is repaired, we are no longer afraid of drought, and the harvest will definitely be better than before!"

When Liu Yaoyao heard this, she burst into laughter and said, "Uncle, you are right! As long as we work together, Zhou Town will definitely become more and more prosperous!"

The two were chatting animatedly when suddenly a young man came running over, holding a bunch of green carrots high in his hand as if he was holding a trophy.

The young man shouted excitedly: "Miss Liu, look! These carrots are the ones I pulled out of the ground myself. They are so fresh that you can squeeze out water from them!"

Liu Yaoyao blinked, took the carrots curiously, and looked at them over and over like an appraiser, praising them with a click of the tongue: "Oh, these carrots are really thick and strong, just like you, young man! It seems that this year's harvest is stable!"

When the young man heard this, his face lit up immediately, and he was so proud that his tail was about to rise to the sky: "Hey, Miss Liu, you are so right! Since you built the canal, our land is like drinking enough water, and the crops are growing better and better! Even a novice like me can grow such good carrots, which shows how great your contribution is!"

After hearing this, Liu Yaoyao felt so happy, as if she had taken a big mouthful of honey, which was so sweet that it was bubbling.

She was very happy: "Haha, it seems that my efforts this time were not in vain! Not only did I repair the canal, but I also made the people's lives better and better. This sense of accomplishment is simply amazing!"

However, she still said modestly: "No, no, this is the result of everyone's concerted efforts. As long as we work together, Zhou Town will definitely become more and more prosperous!"

When the young man heard this, he was even more excited and nodded repeatedly: "Miss Liu is right! We must work with you to make Zhou Town even better!"

For a moment, the air seemed to be filled with the sweet smell of carrots, as well as the strong atmosphere of joy and anticipation between the people and Liu Yaoyao.

The picture is like a vibrant pastoral landscape painting, warm and harmonious.

But at this moment, someone came to spoil the fun.

A burst of hurried horse hooves suddenly rang out, like shattering the tranquil surface of a lake, instantly breaking the joy.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw a rider rushing over, covered in dust, with anxiety written all over his face.

Seeing this, Liu Yaoyao couldn't help but roll her eyes and thought, "Oh, whose horse is running so fast? Is it in a hurry to reincarnate?"

As soon as the rider arrived, he said breathlessly, "Princess, it's bad! A group of unidentified people suddenly appeared outside the town. They look like bandits and are heading this way!"

When Liu Yaoyao heard this, she frowned. She was not the kind of delicate girl who could always deal with things calmly.

She waved her hand, signaling everyone not to panic, and then asked in a deep voice: "How many people are there? Do you have weapons?"

The rider replied: "It's not clear, but there are at least dozens of them, all holding weapons!"

Liu Yaoyao nodded, already having an idea in mind.

She turned to the people and said, "Don't panic, go home and close the doors and windows first, don't let the bandits take advantage of you. The boys and I will find a way to deal with them."

When the people heard this, although they were a little worried, they felt relieved when they saw Liu Yaoyao's calmness. They nodded one after another, indicating that they would follow Liu Yaoyao's arrangements.

Liu Yaoyao turned to the rider and said, "Go and inform the town guards and ask them to get ready. Also, go and call all the warriors in Zhou Town. We have to defend our homeland together!"

When the rider heard this, he was immediately cheered up, responded and galloped away.

Liu Yaoyao looked at the rider's back and said to herself, "I hope I can successfully deal with these bandits this time. Don't let my efforts go to waste!"

However, she did not forget to say a joke: "It seems that we can't eat carrots today. Well, let's go meet those uninvited guests first!"

These words made the people laugh and the tense atmosphere was eased a lot.

Liu Yaoyao stood there with her hands behind her back, a barely perceptible nervousness on her face, but on the surface she pretended to be calm, as if everything was under control.

She thought to herself, "Humph, these bandits came pretty quickly. I want to see what tricks they have."

Just then, the gang of bandits arrived at the scene faster than the town guards.

As soon as they got off their horses, they knelt on one knee in unison. Their movements were so fast and standard that it was simply jaw-dropping.

Liu Yaoyao was stunned when she saw this. She was shocked and thought to herself, "What the hell? Are they bandits? Their salute is more professional than that of the guards!"

A man who looked like a leader walked out from the bandits, holding a yellow imperial edict in his hand, and shouted, "Princess, the imperial edict has arrived!"

Although she was extremely confused, she still tried to remain calm on the surface and took the yellow imperial edict. She unfolded it carefully, fearing that she would tear it by accident, which would be a sin.

With a glance, she saw that it was covered with words. Liu Yaoyao widened her eyes and read them word by word.

"The Emperor proclaims, by the Will of Heaven..." As she read, she thought to herself, "This Emperor speaks in a very literary way, like a cultured person."

However, when she read the sentence "Prince Chen and Princess Chen have made great contributions to the drought relief and will return to the imperial city from today", her eyes suddenly widened and her mouth opened so wide that a duck egg could be stuffed in it.

She suddenly raised her head and looked at the bandits, her eyes full of doubt and confusion: "Did you make a mistake?"

The bandit leader said with a serious face: "Princess, the imperial edict is very clear and there can be no mistakes. Please come with us back to the palace to accept the emperor's reward."

When Liu Yaoyao heard this, she immediately felt overwhelmed. She thought, "A reward? I didn't do anything, how can I be rewarded? And I have to go back to the palace? I still have a lot of things to deal with, how can I have time to go back to the palace!"

So, she put on a smiling face and said, "Well... brothers, don't worry, I will call my family and friends to go back to the palace with you. Is this okay?"

The bandit leader nodded and said, "Then please prepare as soon as possible, Princess. We will wait for you here."
