Space Farming: Traveling through Ancient Times to Do Business

Upon hearing this, Xuan Zhentian nodded slightly and turned his gaze to Ying Yan standing beside him, as if asking something.

Yingyan immediately understood, nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, regarding the head of the Chen family and his family, they were indeed trapped in a desperate situation under the Jigu Cliff by the Liu family. Fortunately, we rescued them in time. They are now safely rushing to Shangjing and will arrive soon."

As soon as these words were spoken, a whisper suddenly sounded in the hall. Everyone expressed their sympathy for the Chen family's plight, and at the same time, they admired Jiang Xue's act of donating a huge sum of money on behalf of the Chen family.

"Your Majesty, is what you said true? Are the Chen family members really still alive?" Jiang Xue's voice was filled with disbelief. She looked at Xuan Zhentian with excitement in her eyes. At this moment, she seemed to see the hope of the Chen family's revival.

"Axue...Xue'er...Miss Jiang..." In the hall, several officials or friends who were on good terms with Jiang Xue spoke up one after another. Their names were different, but they all expressed the same concern and admiration for Jiang Xue.

However, at this moment, a sharp eunuch's voice suddenly sounded, shouting loudly: "How dare you! How dare you question the emperor's words! His Majesty's words are golden, how can they be false!"

This scolding instantly made the atmosphere in the hall tense, and everyone fell silent, not daring to say anything.

But Xuan Zhentian just smiled faintly and waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.

"I admire Miss Jiang Xue, who is straightforward and righteous, so I will not argue with her about these trivial matters. As for the Chen family's affairs, I have ordered people to make proper arrangements. I will definitely reunite their family and revive the family."

"But I am quite curious about what kind of relationship there is between the Chen family and Miss Jiang Xue that made the girl help so unremittingly?" Xuan Zhentian's voice was gentle and full of curiosity. There was a gleam of inquiry in his eyes, as if he wanted to get to know this unknown story in depth.

Jiang Xue was slightly startled when she heard this, then she opened her red lips and slowly said, "Your Majesty, the origin of my relationship with the Chen family actually stems from an accidental opportunity. Many years ago, I bought the Chen family's legitimate daughter, Chen Yuxi, while doing business. Xi'er and I have been inseparable for many years, and we have a deep relationship and are like sisters. Now that the Chen family is in trouble, I feel obligated to do my best to help them."

After hearing this, everyone in the hall was moved and admired Jiang Xue's noble character.

After hearing this, Xuan Zhentian could not help but nod his head in approval: "Miss Jiang Xue is truly a person of love and righteousness. The Chen family is fortunate to have your help. I also admire your character and responsibility, and I believe that you will be able to make more contributions to our dynasty in the future."

His words were full of recognition and expectations for Jiang Xue, which made Jiang Xue feel warm in her heart.

She knows very well that this recognition is not just an affirmation of her personally.

So, she bowed again and said gratefully: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I will live up to your expectations and continue to work hard to contribute my strength to the country and the people."

"Let's adjourn the court! As for the disaster relief, I have decided that the Minister of Revenue will go to the disaster area in person to ensure that the victims are properly resettled and assisted. From tomorrow on, the Crown Prince will oversee the country and handle the affairs of the court on my behalf." Although Xuan Zhentian's voice sounded a little tired, it was still steady and powerful, revealing his concern and determination about national affairs.

As his words fell, all the civil and military officials in the hall knelt down and saluted, responding in unison: "Your Majesty, as you command!" Their voices were uniform and echoed throughout the hall, demonstrating their respect and obedience to the imperial power.

Xuan Zhentian nodded slightly, his eyes swept across everyone, and finally stopped on the prince.

He looked at the young and determined face of the prince, and felt a surge of relief and expectation in his heart.

He knew that the prince had grown into a monarch capable of standing on his own, able to stabilize the court and protect the country when he was away.

At this moment, Xuan Zhentian also felt an indescribable fatigue. Even after taking medicine, it was difficult to completely eliminate the fatigue that penetrated deep into his bones.

So he slowly stood up, and with the help of the eunuchs, walked towards the harem step by step.

His back seemed a little hunched and heavy, but every step he took was extremely firm.

Ying Yan, who was standing by, bowed to Jiang Xue and said, "Miss Jiang Xue, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please follow me."

Seeing this, Ying Yan interrupted at the right time. He bowed to Jiang Xue again, and said with a tone of respect and guidance: "Miss Jiang Xue, Your Highness, please follow me."

After saying that, he turned around and led the way for the two of them, his steps steady and powerful. Jiang Xue and the prince looked at each other, and saw tacit understanding and trust in each other's eyes, and then followed Ying Yan's steps and headed to the next destination together.

On the way, Yingyan didn't say much, but just occasionally reminded them in a low voice about the road conditions to ensure that the two could move forward smoothly.

Jiang Xue and Xuan Yuchen took this opportunity to whisper their views and plans about the things they were about to face.

Although the conversation between the two was brief, it revealed an indescribable tacit understanding and trust, as if they had become comrades-in-arms who could rely on each other.

Following Yingyan's guidance, the three of them hurried to the emperor's bedroom.

The atmosphere in the bedroom was solemn and quiet, and only the occasional sound of the wind outside could be heard.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw several imperial doctors surrounding the bed, busy with anxious looks, while the emperor was lying quietly on the bed, his face pale, his eyes closed, obviously in a coma.

"Your Highness, you are finally here."

"Your Majesty took Mr. Bai's life-extending medicine, which was originally said to have a rejuvenation effect for an hour. However, Your Majesty suddenly fell into a coma." Upon seeing this, an imperial physician hurried forward to report the situation to the prince and Jiang Xue, his tone full of worry.

Xuan Yuchen frowned upon hearing this and made a quick decision: "Go find Master Bai! Since he can make a life-extending medicine, he must have a way to save my father."

Ying Yan responded immediately and was about to turn around and leave when a shadow guard beside him said, "Shadow Master, Young Master Bai is on his way. He learned that His Majesty's condition had changed, so he set out immediately and is expected to arrive soon."

Xuan Yuchen felt relieved when he heard this, but he still stared at the emperor on the bed, his eyes full of worry and anxiety.

He knew very well that his father's condition was serious, and every moment of waiting was like torture.

"Let me do it!" Jiang Xue gently squeezed Xuan Yuchen, who was holding her hand, with a firm and gentle tone. There was an unquestionable light in her eyes, as if she had made up her mind.

Xuan Yuchen felt Jiang Xue's strength and determination, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He responded gently, "Xue'er, thank you for your hard work." His voice was full of trust and gratitude.
