Space Farming: Traveling through Ancient Times to Do Business

"Your Majesty, today is the last injection. Your illness will be completely cured after this." Jiang Xue's voice was gentle but firm. She stood beside Xuan Zhentian's bed, holding a silver needle in her hand, her eyes full of confidence in her medical skills and concern for the emperor.

Hearing this, Xuan Zhentian slowly opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Xue with gratitude and amazement. During this period of time, he deeply felt Jiang Xue's superb medical skills and careful care, and his physical condition was indeed getting better day by day. At this moment, he seemed to wake up from a long dream, his body was much lighter, and even his spirit seemed to have returned to the state of his youth.

"Jiang Xue, you are really my lucky star." Xuan Zhentian said with a smile, his tone full of sincerity and relief. He stretched out his hand and gently patted the back of Jiang Xue's hand to show his gratitude and appreciation.

Jiang Xue smiled slightly, with a humility in her eyes. "Your Majesty, you are too kind. This is my duty. As long as Your Majesty is healthy, I will be satisfied."

After that, Jiang Xue began to give Xuan Zhentian acupuncture. Her technique was skillful, and each needle was accurate, as if she was performing a carefully choreographed dance. As the silver needles slowly penetrated, Xuan Zhentian only felt a warm current flowing through his body, and his body, which was originally a little uncomfortable, instantly became comfortable.

After the acupuncture was completed, Jiang Xue carefully checked Xuan Zhentian's pulse and confirmed that his condition had improved significantly. "Your Majesty, your body has basically recovered, but you still need to pay attention to recuperation and avoid overwork." She warned.

Xuan Zhentian smiled and nodded, feeling deeply confident in Jiang Xue's professionalism and care.

He turned to look at Nangong Qin, his eyes full of love and tenderness, and gently held her in his arms, saying softly: "With Qin'er here, I feel at ease."

Nangong Qin's cheeks turned slightly red at Xuan Zhentian's sudden intimate behavior. She lowered her head shyly, but her heart was filled with warmth.

However, this heartwarming scene was interrupted by Xuan Yuchen standing by.

"Father, please don't teach Xue'er bad things." Xuan Yuchen said with a teasing tone.

His words made Nangong Qin even more embarrassed, but also made her feel warm inside.

Upon hearing this, Xuan Zhentian couldn't help but burst into laughter and looked very pleased.

A blush appeared on Nangong Qin's face. She lowered her head a little embarrassedly, but then raised her head bravely and looked at Xuan Zhentian and Xuan Yuchen with a firm gaze.

"Your Majesty, my son, I did have some misunderstandings about Miss Jiang Xue before. During those days, my heart was full of doubts and uneasiness. However, when I accidentally saw the jade pendant on her waist, all my confusion was blown away by the wind and became clear in an instant. It turns out that she is the daughter-in-law I have been looking for."

Xuan Zhentian smiled and shook his head, looking at Nangong Qin lovingly, and said softly: "Qin'er, I have hinted to you so many times, why didn't you notice it? But it doesn't matter, it's not too late to know now."

Xuan Yuchen echoed, "Yes, mother, father did mention Miss Jiang Xue to you a lot. It's just that you were always immersed in your own thoughts and didn't notice these details."

Nangong Qin's face showed some apology and gratitude when she heard this. She looked at Xuan Yuchen with a gentle light in her eyes: "My son, it was your mother who neglected it."

Xuan Zhentian reached out and gently patted the back of Nangong Qin's hand.

......

three days later

Xuan Zhentian sat on the dragon throne, frowning, listening to the ministers below reporting one by one on the various crises facing the country. Drought in the north, refugee migration, plague in Dongzhou... These problems weighed on his mind like a huge rock, making him sigh at the heavy state affairs.

"Your Majesty, the north has been experiencing drought for months, the land is cracked, and the people are living in hardship. A large number of refugees have begun to migrate south, and the counties and cities along the way are under tremendous pressure." A minister reported worriedly.

"Your Majesty, the plague is raging in Dongzhou. Many villages have been quarantined, and countless people have been killed and injured. The court is in urgent need of sending medical officers and supplies for rescue." Another minister said immediately.

Xuan Zhentian felt mixed emotions while listening to these reports. He knew that as the king of a country, he had to shoulder this responsibility, but faced with so many thorny issues, he couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. He glanced at the crown prince Xuan Yuchen standing next to him and thought to himself.

"Yu Chen, what do you think?" Xuan Zhentian finally asked. He wanted to hear the prince's opinion, and at the same time he was considering whether the prince should be more involved in the handling of state affairs.

Xuan Yuchen took a step forward and answered calmly, "Father, I think the most urgent task is to send capable officials to the North and Dongzhou to organize disaster relief on the one hand, and investigate the cause of the disaster on the other hand to solve the problem fundamentally. At the same time, I am also willing to go to the disaster area in person to understand the people's sentiments and share your worries."

Xuan Zhentian was relieved when he heard this. He nodded and praised: "Yuchen, you really have my style. Okay, I will order you to be fully responsible for the relief of the drought in the north and the plague in Dongzhou. You must remember that the people are the foundation of the country, and all our efforts are to enable them to live a stable and happy life."

"Adjourn the court!" Xuan Zhentian's voice echoed in the empty hall, announcing the end of the morning court.

The ministers bowed and took their leave one after another, each getting busy preparing to deal with the next round of government affairs.

Xuan Zhentian stood up and swept his eyes over everyone in the hall, finally stopping on several important officials including Crown Prince Xuan Yuchen and Prime Minister Murong.

He said in a deep voice: "Crown Prince, Prime Minister Murong, and several ministers, follow me to the Imperial Study to discuss this."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked out of the hall and headed towards the imperial study. Crown Prince Xuan Yuchen and several ministers hurriedly followed, knowing that the next thing to be discussed must be a major matter concerning the safety of the country.

In the imperial study, Xuan Zhentian sat at the desk with a serious expression.

After motioning for everyone to sit down, he said, "The issues you have reported to the court this morning are all national challenges. The drought in the north, the migration of refugees, and the plague in the East Province all require us to treat each of them with caution."

He looked in the direction where Jiang Xue was about to come, and had already made up his mind.

Jiang Xue not only has superb medical skills, but also has a heart that cares for the people. Her joining will undoubtedly add strength to the disaster relief work.

"Prince, you are about to go to the disaster area. I hope you can lead the team well, not only to solve the immediate crisis, but also to consider the long-term and prevent similar situations from happening again." Xuan Zhentian has high hopes for Xuan Yuchen.

Xuan Yuchen replied respectfully: "I will do my best to live up to your trust."

Then, Xuan Zhentian looked at Prime Minister Murong and several ministers and said, "I have decided to let Miss Jiang Xue participate in the disaster relief work. She has superb medical skills and will definitely bring good news to the people in the disaster area. Prime Minister Murong, you are responsible for arranging the relevant matters to ensure that Miss Jiang Xue can go smoothly."
