Deputy General Yu and the Yun Guards were stunned for a moment before asking worriedly, “Will we be discovered?”

Xiaoxiao shook her head. “Don’t worry about me. I have many old books that I can’t see their original appearance. Why don’t you confirm it yourself?”

After seeing it, everyone praised Xiaoxiao. It was so damaged that even the Immortals could not save it.

Xiaoxiao left the other book behind. “If he comes looking for me again, tell him that I took the wrong book last time and ask him to take another book back. When I wake up, I still have to study how to lengthen the distance that Clairvoyant can see. I can take the food by myself by placing it at the door.”

This was a big deal, so everyone had to take it to heart.

The Crown Prince first placed the old book properly after returning. Then, he found his trusted aide. “How is it? Did you respond to the letter sent to Fortune Village?”

The confidant said proudly, “Your Highness, don’t worry. What does that martial woman Xiao Ran know? Although she was unwilling to hand over the secret recipe at first, she agreed when she found out that a few of her former subordinates’ families were in urgent need of money. In addition, our Yan Family offered a high price.”

“Perhaps they heard that Her Majesty the Empress likes that wild girl and specially expressed goodwill…”

The Crown Prince was halfway through nodding when he heard this.

The confidant asked, “Now that we have the secret recipe, should we get Master and the others to start preparing?”

Of course. Before long, this dried vegetable, no, this dehydrated vegetable, would become the Yan Family’s cash cow.

He looked down on the copper coins of these poor commoners at the border, but he was looking at the other lands in the desert.

For example, the Xiongnu and the Southern Barbarians.

One was a desert, and the other was a swamp. There was no suitable environment for farming. If he sold these dehydrated vegetables to them in the future, wouldn’t he be able to exchange them for a large sum of wealth?

Weren’t the Southern Barbarian’s herbs and witchcrafts, Xiongnu’s iron ores and gems not more valuable than that ordinary dried vegetable?

Unbeknownst to him, while he was daydreaming, a few kilometers away from the military camp, an empty field was already filled with joyful greenery. The citizens of the border city who were helping to farm had also turned from tears of joy to anticipation and joy.

“Grandma, look, there’s a small fruit here!”

“Don’t move. Miss said that you have to take good care of the little fruit when it grows. You have to prepare to pinch its head and pay attention to the light. Don’t give it too much water!”

“I know, Grandma. We’ll just take a look. We won’t touch it or cause trouble!”

This was the fruit of hope at the border!

After returning to the house, Xiaoxiao left the NPC behind as usual and went back to Xiongnu with a whoosh.

Now, she was very glad that she had chosen the teleportation function. Otherwise, she could only let the NPC act as if she had disappeared. However, there would definitely be a lot of trouble after that. It would be too difficult to come back.

Unlike now, when she could come and go as she pleased.

[Teleportation has been used. 10,000 points have been deducted. Master, the current total points is 230.]

Xiaoxiao:…

Alright, only with points could she come and go as she pleased.

It took two trips back and forth. Coupled with the NPC’s renewal fee, the points were consumed a little quickly. It seemed that the current way of earning points was not enough for her to mess around.

Time passed by unintentionally. It had been more than three months since Rong Yan left the Imperial Capital. The Emperor received letters from his two sons almost at the same time.

The Crown Prince’s letter seemed to be blaming himself, but one moment, he mentioned that he had been under house arrest for many days because of his carelessness. The next moment, he mentioned that he was controlled by others at the border and could not do anything. There was a hidden meaning in his words, making the Emperor sneer repeatedly.

On the other hand, the Third Prince’s letter did not mention the Crown Prince at all. It only wrote about the situation at the border, including how the Xiongnu burned, killed, and plundered, how sinister and vicious they were, and how they deliberately sent the infected soldiers to the military camp in an attempt to destroy the entire city.

The Emperor was furious. He threw away the unpresentable letter from the Crown Prince and continued reading.

“I’m not talented. I really can’t stand the Xiongnu’s arrogant actions. I’ve probed them for many years and they haven’t changed their ways. It’s enough to show that the Xiongnu is ambitious. We can’t tolerate them and they’re pushing their luck. If today’s matter is resolved, others will still think that there are no men in Great Xia!”

The Emperor slapped the dragon table. “No men in Great Xia? What a ‘no men in Great Xia’!”

The letter also said, “Father, I’m not doing this on impulse. The terrain of Xiongnu is special and the climate is variable. It’s the golden autumn of October now, the coldest and hottest season at the border. It’s the best time to pursue victory. Moreover, Xiongnu has been defeated and their morale has declined, but the soldiers of Great Xia are full of fighting spirit…”

“Besides, I’ve recently obtained a unique food recipe that’s suitable to make dry rations for the army…”

“This matter is very important, but the border is 5,000 kilometers away from the Imperial Capital. It’s an urgent matter. Please forgive me for not being able to report it to Father before taking action. I’ll leave first and let the Xiongnu experience the cavalry of Great Xia!”

After reading the letter quickly, the Emperor flipped through it carefully again. After that, he fell into a long silence. When he received the letter, the Third Prince should have already gone deep into Xiongnu. Heh, why didri 11 see that this kid was so bold in the past?

Eunuch De waited at the side for a long time until His Majesty put down the letter. Then, he handed over a stack of memorandums. “Your Majesty, these have just been sent over. They’re memorandums from the ministers regarding war and peace with the Xiongnu.”

The Emperor only flipped through two of them and he could not stop rolling his eyes. “A group of idiots! They actually proposed to make peace with the Xiongnu? And reconcile? Pfft! Why don’t they just turn the books of the sages they read in the past into loudspeakers and take them to the streets to shout, ‘We’re afraid of Xiongnu’?”

After throwing the memorandums and the Crown Prince’s letter together, the Emperor snorted coldly. “They think that Great Xia doesn’t dare to fight their way over just because they’re in the desert? Why? Has poverty become their advantage?”

Eunuch De wisely remained silent and did not mention that Xiongnu was rich in ores, including the advantage of having a large number of iron ores and ironware.

The Emperor was just complaining. He naturally understood what he needed to understand. After his temper subsided, he approved two more memorandums. Then, he looked up and asked calmly, “Did I underestimate this son of mine in the past?”

Eunuch De pretended to be confused. “What is His Majesty saying?”

The Emperor glanced at him from the corner of his eyes, so Eunuch De could only say honestly, “After all, the Third Prince was raised by General Xiao. Didn’t Your Majesty send the Third Prince to the border because you recognized his ability?”

“Moreover, Your Majesty is also brave and good at fighting in the cities. Third Prince is also like you.”

The Emperor revealed an ambiguous smile. “Old thing, your flattery skills are getting better with age.”

“How’s Noble Consort Ji?”

Eunuch De said, “As usual.”

The Emperor chuckled. “Her biological son barely escaped death at the border, but she’s calm.. Does she hate my son who she gave birth to so much?”
