"How could I not know? I will make Rongrong's wish come true and let everyone in the world know about our Rongrong's good deeds."

The two of them entered the city one after the other, and Xie Wuyou talked a lot with Zhou Rongrong along the way.

It had not rained in these three states for more than half a year. As time went on, not a drop of rain fell. The people were miserable. Some people sold their children. There were also many black-hearted merchants who made a fortune from the national disaster. There were also corrupt officials who deceived their superiors and embezzled a lot of money.

Seeing that something was about to happen, Xie Wuyou, who had just dealt with the Nangong family's affairs, rushed here overnight. He used thundering means and didn't waste time. As long as there was evidence, all these people were beheaded. Then, honest officials were promoted to take charge. This temporarily calmed the people's grievances.

Zhou Rongrong looked at the words "Yuzhou" written on the high city wall, and Xie Wuyou explained.

"Yuzhou is a very large city. It used to be bustling and prosperous, but now it's different. Many shops are closed. It's really miserable."

"I know. I saw it all on the way here."

When the guard saw it was Xie Wuyou, he quickly opened the door. Zhou Rongrong brought her own motorcade, with the Zhou family flag hanging on each car, and went to the prefectural government office in a mighty manner.

From a distance, I saw a pretty girl in yellow clothes looking around at the gate of the mansion with her maid.

As soon as he saw Xie Wuyou coming, a smile appeared on his face, but when he saw that there was a dark-skinned girl next to them, and the two of them were riding horses and talking and laughing, the smile on his face disappeared.

"Little, miss."

This person is none other than Hong Qiuxue, the daughter of the prefect, Lord Hong. She is one of the most beautiful women in Yuzhou and quite talented.

"nothing."

Xie Wuyou helped Zhou Rongrong off the horse as if he didn't see her, which made her look even worse. But Zhou Rongrong's whole focus was not on this and she didn't notice the girl's changing expression.

He also called on Sang Biao to start unloading the truck with his men.

"Can you put it here?"

Xie Wuyou replied: "Okay, let Lin Qiong take your people to release them."

Lin Qiong, who was named by Xie Wuyou, is Xie Wuyou's chief personal guard and has been with him for more than ten years. He is the one in charge of the letters from Zhou Rongrong and Xie Wuyou. He can see how much the prince values ​​Miss Zhou, so he naturally respects her and quickly steps forward to salute.

"Your subordinate Lin Qiong has met you, young lady. Don't worry, I will definitely handle it properly."

Zhou Rongrong took two steps back to avoid his gift. She was just a worthless country woman, so how could she deserve his gift?

"Thank you very much."

Hong Qiuxue, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but take a few more glances. Who on earth was this woman? Both the prince and Lin Qiong treated her differently. In this case, she naturally had to look forward.

"My Lord, who is this girl?"

Only then did everyone notice that there was another girl there. Xie Wuyou thought for a moment and asked.

"You are the?"

Hong Qiuxue almost shed tears when he asked this: "The prince has lived here for so long and he doesn't even know who he is?"

Actually, it’s not Xie Wuyou’s fault. Lord Hong only introduced Xie Wuyou and Hong Qiuxue during dinner on the first day they came. After that, Xie Wuyou was very busy every time they met. How could he possibly remember her?

Seeing that the little girl was about to cry, Zhou Rongrong rolled her eyes at Xie Wuyou and comforted her.

"Girl, don't take it seriously. He is just like that. His words can make people angry to death."

When Xie Wuyou saw Zhou Rongrong speaking, he stood obediently behind her, with his hands hanging down and not saying a word, looking a little aggrieved.

Zhou Rongrong continued, "My name is Zhou Rongrong. I am from Dashan Village in Zhao County. I am here to deliver food to the people."

Bai Shao, the maidservant beside Hong Qiuxue, saw that her young lady was being wronged. The other party claimed to be a village woman, so she looked her up and down. As expected, the girl's clothes and accessories were extremely ordinary, so she said unhappily.

"You are just a village woman, and you dare to make my young lady angry."

"Shut up, Bai Shao apologize."

Zhou Rongrong touched her nose, not unhappy. She still crossed her arms and watched Sang Biao and his men coming in and out to unload the goods, and waved her hand.

"Nothing, I'm here to take care of something, I don't have time to argue with a little maid."

The little maidservant was so angry that her teeth were itching. How dare a country boy speak like that and be so close to the prince? How shameless! But she still had to speak since her lady had spoken.

"I'm sorry, Miss Zhou. I said something wrong."

Zhou Rongrong was too lazy to respond to her. She looked her up and down like her, as if she was looking at a commodity. Bai Shao was so angry that she gritted her teeth but dared not say anything.

Hong Qiuxue could only leave with her maid to avoid meeting the prince's eyes that seemed to want to kill her. After seeing them leave, Zhou Rongrong looked at Xie Wuyou suspiciously several times.

"You really don't know him? Or are you pretending?"

Xie Wuyou's pretty little head was about to be shaken into a rattle: "I don't know him, I really don't know him."

Zhou Rongrong said indifferently: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm busy now, I want to take a rest first, and when I'm rested, tell me what to do."

Xie Wuyou said immediately like a lackey: "Everything has been arranged, but I have things to do now. Is it okay for me to arrange a nanny to take care of your daily life?"

"It's doable, sorry for the trouble."

Seeing that everything was put away, Zhou Rongrong felt relieved and took a shower and rest. She really didn't get enough rest in the past few days. She didn't dare to go into the space to rest with so much food. She didn't dare to sleep peacefully during the whole journey and she slept until the next morning.

Xie Wuyou was worried that she had overslept, and wanted to go in and check on her several times, but he never managed to get into the house.

Hong Qiuxue had been sending people to watch her yard, but Sang Biao and his men were guarding the surroundings of the yard, so it was impossible to get in. They just said that the prince had ordered that no one else should disturb the girl's rest.

Hong Qiuxue was old enough to get married, and Mrs. Hong arranged for many young talents to meet her, but relying on her beauty and talent, she didn't like any of them.

Unexpectedly, Xie Wuyou came at this time. With his noble status, cold temperament, and very handsome face, Hong Qiuxue thought that only such a person could match her.

But Lord Hong saw it very clearly. His colleagues in the capital said that the prince was not the kind of person who could be bought by beauty. There was even a rumor that the prince was fond of men.

No matter what, he felt that his daughter and the prince were not a good match. Given their family status, she could forget about becoming the principal wife. Being a concubine would be good enough for her.

But being a concubine is still a concubine after all, right? How could he be willing to let the daughter he raised with great care be someone else's concubine?

No matter how much Mrs. Hong talked, she refused to ask the prince about this, and it seemed that the prince had no such intention towards his daughter.

"Madam, our family doesn't need to curry favor with the rich and powerful. Just find a man with good character and a simple family for your daughter. And if she marries to Yuzhou and has our family's support, who can bully her? Think about it, isn't this the truth?"
