After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

After feeling that these people had fought enough, the chief of Liangjia Village brought people over to negotiate.

Yuxiu didn't ask about these things and took her people to the mountain behind Yujia Village.

The mountains here are very high, and the trees at the foot of the mountains have been almost all cut down, leaving nothing but bare leaves everywhere.

After climbing to a higher place, looking around, we can see that there is quite a lot of land here.

Relying on this small river, irrigation of crops in the fields is not a problem, so the crops are growing very well.

It seems that no matter which dynasty it is, having sufficient water is the foundation that the people cannot live without.

Bringing so many people up the mountain means of course they want to hunt.

The resources here are very abundant. Not long after entering the mountain, I heard the roar of wild wolves in the distance.

Maybe because there were too many people here, and they all looked aggressive, the howling of the wild wolves became farther and farther away, and finally could not be heard at all.

"You don't have to stay here. Go hunt some game separately. There are seasonings in the carriage. Bring them down so we can grill some meat..."

After dispersing everyone, Yuxiu took Su Wan to find a good place to prepare a barbecue.

When Qi Siyuan and his men came over, Yuxiu and Su Wan were already sitting around the fire, eating with their mouths drooling.

"How come your highness has time to come here? Did something happen?"

Seeing him coming up the hillside, Yuxiu quickly stood up and greeted him.

"It's nothing serious. I just have everything arranged and have two days of free time, so I thought of coming to see you."

Qi Siyuan walked over with a smile, raised his hand and wiped the oil stains off Yuxiu's lips.

After finishing his work today, he rushed to Chen County to look for Yuxiu, but he did not expect to find her in vain.

I was outside thinking about her so much that I couldn't even eat or drink, but this heartless little girl came out and ate barbecue.

Qi Siyuan felt helpless when he thought about it. He didn't know when it started, but the girl in front of him had become the apple of his eye.

"Your Highness has been exhausted recently, so take this opportunity to relax."

Yuxiu smiled, feeling a little embarrassed, and quickly turned around, picked up the roasted rabbit leg and handed it to him.

"Try it now, this is baked by me."

Her face was full of pride, and Qi Siyuan had no intention of being polite to her. He took it and put it in his mouth and took a bite.

"This smell seems to be even stronger than the dogwood powder from the south..."

It was not the first time for him to eat chili peppers, but Yuxiu had always made it slightly spicy before, so he only felt that it was fragrant but not uncomfortable.

But today she was thinking of making something super spicy for herself, but she didn't pay attention and just gave it to Qi Siyuan.

Su Wan had already seen through the situation and ran to another fire. Yuxiu had to suppress her smile and took out the water bag she had brought with her and gave it to him.

"This is the seasoning I specially prepared. Look how enthusiastically they are eating it."

Yuxiu pointed at the guards, and sure enough, she saw that their barbecue was covered with a layer of red stuff.

“Although the first bite was a bit overwhelming, it also felt like a unique flavor.”

Qi Siyuan smacked his lips, and his mouth still felt like it was on fire, but he couldn't help but want to eat more.

"You'd better eat this. It has less chili powder."

Yuxiu picked up the skewers of meat next to her. They were just grilled by Su Wan. She couldn’t eat anything too spicy.

"Do you feel warm all over?"

Seeing Qi Siyuan's blushing cheeks, Yuxiu asked him with a smile.

"It does feel very hot, and the smell is very intoxicating, and the effect comes faster than drinking alcohol."

When talking about drinking, Qi Siyuan thought of the soldiers on the border drinking to keep warm.

He knew that Yuxiu had a lot of good things, including this thing called chili, which he had never heard anyone talk about before.

It seems that it is very likely that it was brought to her by her master.

He just asked how valuable this thing was, and Yuxiu understood his idea.

"It's too late this year. We will wait until we have cultivated some seeds and distribute them in the spring of next year."

Yuxiu had already decided to grow peppers on a large scale, so she agreed without hesitation.

The cultivation of peppers is not picky about the land, nor does it need to occupy a lot of good farmland. It can be grown at the foot of a mountain or in front of or behind a house.

As long as there is free space, you can plant a few and harvest a lot.

Qi Siyuan nodded and said that if they needed his help, they could just tell him.

After they finished eating, they came to an empty rock. Pointing at the winding mountain path under their feet, Yuxiu said with emotion:

"This side is beautiful, but the mountain roads are too bumpy. If cement can be mass-produced, in a few years, can all the official roads in our Yuan Dynasty be replaced with cement roads?"

She thought of a sentence she often heard in her previous life: If you want to be rich, you must first build roads.

It is very appropriate to bring this ancient dynasty that has never appeared at this time.

As long as the roads everywhere are built and smooth, transportation and other things will be much more convenient.

"Don't worry, the cement produced recently is used to build city walls and the like. The next plan is to pave roads over a large area."

The purpose of Qi Siyuan's visit this time was to supervise the construction of the city wall.

Yuxiu also told him about breeding and canal digging in Chen County, and Qi Siyuan naturally agreed with both hands.

"You can do these things in your fiefdom. You just need to write a memorial to the emperor and let him know. I don't think the emperor will have any objections."

What objection could there be? The emperor doesn't have to spend a penny anyway.

On the contrary, if the people grew more grain, it would be more beneficial to the imperial court.

There were people at the foot of the mountain looking around curiously. They were the Liang brothers and sisters.

It seemed that the matter had been resolved, so Yuxiu asked people to pack up and go down the mountain together.

With so many people going hunting together, it was natural that they would win a great victory.

We killed more than ten wild boars, and countless pheasants and rabbits.

They killed several wild wolves, but as they looked skinny and without much meat on them, they were not brought down the mountain and were buried on the spot by those people.

There were also a few wild goats and the like, and everyone was noisily carrying them down the mountain.

Liang held Xiaobao's hand and stood at the foot of the mountain waiting, while the Liang brothers stood aside, knowing the rules.

"It's rare for the princess to come to our little mountain village, please come to my house and have a seat..."

When Liang looked up, she saw the handsome young man walking side by side with Yuxiu, and she was stunned.

"Who is this young master?"

She seemed to have heard that Princess Kangning was married to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but could such a noble man as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come to such a remote mountain village?

Seeing her hesitation, Yuxiu smiled.

"This is my princess' fiancé, naturally His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
