The Queen decided to help. She wanted to give Emperor Yun Yi an "all-round, multi-level, three-dimensional" health transformation.

First, she ordered people to collect all kinds of rare and exotic herbs from the folks and boil them into jars of fragrant "Kidney-tonifying and waist-strengthening soup", which she euphemistically called "the holy product for dragon body recovery."

"Your Majesty, this is the 'Dragon Body Recovery Sacred Product' that I specially prepared for you. I guarantee that after you drink it, your waist and legs will no longer ache, and you will even have the energy to climb the stairs!"

The queen handed a bowl of hot medicine to Emperor Yun Yi with a smile, her eyes full of anticipation.

When Emperor Yun Yi took a look, he found that the medicine was black and sticky, and it gave off an indescribable smell.

I kept wondering, "Can this thing really cure diseases?"

But he couldn't refuse the queen's kindness, so he had to bite the bullet and drink it all.

In the following days, the queen arranged various health-preserving programs, such as practicing sword in the morning, drinking tea in the afternoon, and soaking feet in the evening.

Several old Chinese medicine doctors who were known as the "reincarnation of Hua Tuo" were specially invited from outside the palace to give Emperor Yun Yi a full body massage and acupuncture treatment.

Emperor Yun Yi was skeptical at first, but he could not resist the enthusiasm of the queen and the "miraculous healing skills" of those old Chinese doctors.

After a few days, he felt much better. His waist and legs no longer hurt, and he even walked with a breeze.

"Empress, your method is truly amazing! I feel like I can kill a cow with one punch and kick away two tigers with my feet!"

Emperor Yun Yi patted his chest and spoke with great pride. He was so proud that it seemed as if he had already unified the world.

The queen couldn't help rolling her eyes after hearing his exaggerated description.

"This man, once he gets better, he starts bragging."

However, she still responded with a smile: "Your Majesty, your boasting is almost as thick as the city wall of Ling State. However, only when you are in good health can we continue our "great cause"!"

In the following days, Emperor Yun Yi was busy taking care of his health, but he never forgot his great cause of unification.

He convened his ministers more frequently to discuss state affairs and formulate plans to attack the State of Ling.

The Queen continued to play her role as "Minister of Logistics". She not only had to ensure the health of Emperor Yun Yi, but also had to help him deal with all the affairs of the harem to ensure that he could devote himself wholeheartedly to his "great cause".

As for Ling Kingdom, huh, it depends on whether Emperor Yun Yi can avenge his previous humiliation and realize his dream of unification.

However, the Queen privately hoped that he could take it easy.

After all, this grand blueprint of unifying the continent is like stewing a pot of old-fashioned soup, which needs to be simmered slowly and cannot be rushed.

The taste will be just right when the heat is just right!

Our protagonists are gathered around the map, pointing at the mountains and rivers, planning how to piece together this fragmented territory into a complete picture, with "kingly spirit" flashing in their eyes.

However, fate always seemed to play jokes on them. Just when they were gearing up to start the "unification of the world" mode, the Nanyang region of Ling State suddenly suffered a drought that had not been seen in a century.

The scene was just like a cactus in the desert suddenly falling down due to thirst, and even the ground opened its dry mouth and cried out: "Water, where are you?"

The Yun State bordering Nanyang is truly a "blessing" place, especially the small border town of Hushui County.

Because all the rivers in Yun Country seemed to have found an organization and all flowed here, resulting in the water resources here being as abundant as if they were free.

Now the villagers in Nanyang were like cats smelling fish. They all carried hoes, led cattle and sheep, and rushed to Hushui County with their families.

The scene was so spectacular that it looked like a grand migration "escaping from drought and rushing towards water."

Hushui County is bustling now. The originally quiet town has instantly turned into a "population explosion zone". The streets are crowded with people, the alleys are packed with people, and even simple tents are set up on the roofs. It is simply a real version of the "Human Planet".

What's even more terrible is that water resources have also become tight. The river water that was originally "inexhaustible" now has to be used carefully. Even the water for washing face has to be saved for soaking feet at night.

As for our protagonist Yun Yi, things are getting even more complicated at this time. His body seems to have been affected by the drought and has started to "go on strike".

I saw him holding a kettle all day long, like a miser guarding gold and silver treasures. His face was as white as chalk, and he seemed to be floating when he walked.

One can't help but worry that this guy might accidentally "sublimate" and turn into a cloud and float away.

"Yun Yi, Yun Yi, are you going to stage a fantasy tragicomedy of 'The wind is whistling and the Yi River is cold, and the warrior is gone and can't even turn in the microwave'?"

In a corner of the imperial garden, the ministers lowered their voices, made faces and joked with each other, as if they were afraid that there were ears on the other side of the wall. In fact, they wished that this gossip could take wings and fly all over the imperial city.

Our Lord Yun Yi is well-known for his "volcanic eruption physique". He usually sits on a high seat next to the dragon throne that symbolizes power and is used to giving orders about the country.

If things don't go his way, his anger will explode like a firecracker with a lit fuse.

Recently, the imperial court encountered two "small earthquakes" in succession - first, the food and grass at the border were robbed, and then there was a big mess in the accounts of the palace.

Under the double blow, Lord Yun Yi's brows were so furrowed that they could kill a fly, and his anger was so great that it could blow away the steamers in the imperial kitchen.

Generally speaking, the scenery in the court is like this:

Or Lord Yun Yi would pick up the memorial with one hand and throw it at the feet of some "unlucky" minister as accurately as throwing a javelin, accompanied by a roar: "How can such a mediocre person assist the country!"

Or he would point his finger like a sword at the tip of a minister's nose, and say something so sharp that it could cut iron like mud: "You eat the emperor's salary, but you are so lazy, what crime should you be punished for!"

But this time, Lord Yun Yi was unusually silent, so silent that the ministers were nervous, fearing that the calm before the storm was brewing a bigger storm.

Just when everyone was getting nervous and preparing to collectively practice the "Turtle Breathing Technique" to protect themselves.

Lord Yun Yi suddenly stood up, a mysterious smile on his lips, which contained a bit of cunning and unruly.

As if to say: "Humph, those of you who underestimate me, Yun Yi, just wait and see!"

He slowly walked to the center of the hall, cleared his throat, and announced in a tone that sounded almost like chanting poetry:

"My dear ministers, in view of the recent decline in government, I have decided to personally go to the south of the Yangtze River, incognito, to understand the people's sentiments and find a good way to govern the country. As for the affairs of the court, Lord Li will take care of them for the time being. I hope you will support me and don't let me down."

After these words came out, the ministers looked at each other with mixed feelings:

Is Lord Yun Yi going to stage a gorgeous transformation from the court to the underworld, from an angry bird to a wise eagle?

In the following days, Lord Yun Yi really disappeared without a trace, leaving only a lot of discussion in the court and occasional interesting stories spread back from the people:

For example, Yun Yi played chess with villagers in a small town and learned the way to govern a country through a game of chess;

Or maybe he bargained with vendors at the market, experienced the suffering of the people, and even learned some bargaining skills...

Just when the ministers began to doubt whether Lord Yun Yi was really "happy in his homeland", an urgent secret letter was quietly delivered to the palace.

The letter was sincere in words and ingenious in strategy. It not only solved the food and grass problem on the border, but also proposed a series of reform measures that shocked the court.

Lord Yun Yi, the former "volcanic eruption body", has now become a "beacon of wisdom" in the eyes of everyone.

When he appeared in the court again, he was holding a roast duck he had just brought back from Jiangnan. He said with a smile, "Everyone, I gained a lot from this trip to Jiangnan. I even learned how to make roast duck. How about we have a barbecue party in the Imperial Garden some other day?"

The ministers were stunned at first, then burst into laughter, secretly rejoicing in their hearts:

This Yun Yi, Yun Yi, is really unpredictable. However, with such a boss, life seems to be more fun!
