Xiaoxiao chuckled. The space data stream trembled and it reacted: [Master is teasing me again.]
Only then did Xiaoxiao say: [I can already feel that I have sharp ears, sharp eyes, and good spirits, but I haven’t seen my appearance yet, so I’m asking you this.]
The space became energetic again and briefly explained the changes in the space when she fell asleep. Without a word, Xiaoxiao exchanged for five ginseng seedlings and five lingzhi seedlings to plant in the 100-fold farmland. Then, she looked at the ripe rice and wheat on the farmland and then at the rich warehouse. She decisively changed to other commonly used medicinal herbs after harvesting them.
She might have a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, but she only felt comfortable when she saw it neat and tidy.
After doing this, she asked: [What exactly is the fourth option?]
The space fell silent. Obviously, this was another unanswerable question.
Xiaoxiao thought for a moment. [Then I’ll ask in another way. Can I take a look?]
The space replied this time, but what it said was: [No, Master, because it’s a hidden reward. A hidden reward is like a blind box in your previous life. I can’t tell you the specific content before opening it.]
Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows, and the image of the door flashed across her mind again.
Although she did not know what it was or why she had clearly seen its appearance when she was unconscious, she had a feeling that it must be something very important to her.
[Will the fourth item appear again the next time I level up? Is it still the same?]
The space gave an affirmative answer: [The content of the hidden reward for the phase upgrade remains unchanged.]
In other words, she would still see that door when she reached Level 20.
When choosing the laborers, Chen Yong chose those people whose houses were close to the riverbank. Hence, they saw the scene of the river breaking with their own eyes. The commoners and craftsmen who built the dam were even more careful and diligent, and they wished they could work on it even harder. Hence, after a day and night, the dam had already changed.
When Xiaoxiao came to the construction site, everyone who saw her smiled even when they were tired. Ning Anhui whispered to her, “Everyone was very worried when they found out that you fainted from exhaustion.” “There are also many people who say that even a young lady like you can do her best to this extent. Men like them can’t fall behind.
What Xiaoxiao could cook for everyone was delicious food that could replenish their strength. Hence, the smell of food floated up from the construction site at noon the day she woke up.
Hearing her actions, Chen Yong could not help but nod repeatedly. He, who was squatting by the dam, had completely lost his elegant and elegant appearance from before. Not only was he disheveled, but he also had a huge beard. Xiaoxiao did not know if he drank the soup or his beard.
However, his actions of going through thick and thin with the people really benefited the laborers and bailiffs. At this moment, they called him “Lord Chen” with more respect and recognition.
Xiaoxiao praised him inwardly. Chen Yong had just taken office and originally needed a long time to integrate into this government office. Now, his efficiency was much higher. Speaking of which, County Magistrate Shen was also a smart and capable person. It seemed that Dean Lu of Bowen Academy was indeed good at teaching students. She was looking forward to her brother’s future.
While chatting, Xiaoxiao heard someone sigh. “It would be good if there were more officials like Lord Chen in the court.”
She had heard from Little Big Brother that most of the officialdom was controlled by the Yan Corporation now. It was a chaotic mess. This was also the fundamental reason why Dean Lu resigned dejectedly. Lord Chen bade farewell to the high officials and asked to be demoted.
The Imperial Court had already decayed and needed new vitality.
She seemed to suddenly have some ideas, but she had no one to confide in. It would be great if Little Big Brother was around.
Where did her Little Big Brother go now?
In order not to cause a commotion, the 500 imperial guards had already entered the city separately. Yan Lu was also secretly sent to the Imperial Capital under Rong Yan’s supervision.
Yun Er, who had been following him all the way, was a little angry. “The evidence is clearly conclusive. Why are you still giving this old man face?” Rong Yan wiped the Azure Frost Sword that Xiaoxiao had given him and his expression was calm. “If not, how could we have returned to the Imperial Capital without any accidents?”
Yun Er’s heart ached slightly. They had just passed by the place where Yun Wu died. That kid was clearly the youngest among the brothers and had yet to get married and have children, but he died so tragically. Every time she thought of the blood and deformed body that was everywhere when he found him, the anger and sorrow in Yun Er’s heart could not be suppressed.
However, at the same time, he knew very well that Yun Wu’s matter was also an undeniable dark cloud in His Highness’s heart. His Highness did not resist the capital’s request to bring Yan Lu back in a low profile manner. Perhaps it was because he did not want them to be injured again.
His Highness… was such a gentle person. Why did Noble Consort…
Yan Lu was very relaxed on the way back, as if he was not a prisoner who had returned to the capital to be interrogated, but a free person who had nothing to do. He even had the leisure to ask for a cup of tea and chat with Rong Yan. “Could it be that you’re unhappy because Noble Consort dotes on His Highness the Crown Prince, so you deliberately targeted our Yan Family?
Rong Yan’s hand that was holding the cup paused for a moment. Then, a hand grabbed his wrist and splashed the tea on Yan Lu’s face.
The latter pretended to be profound. “You!”
Xiao Ran raised her leg and kicked him. “What? You’re a prisoner. Who gave you the cheek to point at the dignified prince? If you continue to nag, do you believe that I’ll slap you into the crack in the wall so that you won’t be able to get off it?”
The originally tense and dejected atmosphere immediately became cheerful. Yun Er felt that the best decision for His Highness on this trip was to travel with General Xiao. Compared to the Noble Consort, General Xiao was more like His Highness’s mother.
After beating him up, Xiao Ran walked up to Rong Yan and placed his hand on her shoulder. Then, she said insincerely, “Aiyaya, Your Highness, don’t pull me so hard. I just don’t like him!”
After saying that, she rolled her eyes and looked around. “Remember, I don’t like that b*stard. Your Highness tried his best to pull me back, but he couldn t.
Rong Yan laughed. “Aunt Xiao, don’t be angry. I really don’t care.” Xiao Ran took a closer look at his expression and was relieved when she realized that he was really calm. Noble Consort Ji, who wouldn’t care about her son for no reason, had written a letter so that Rong Yan could not frame the Yan Family. She even urged them to clear their names as soon as possible. It was obvious that she would rather let her biological son bear the taint of framing an Imperial Court official to protect the Crown Prince’s party.
She was worried that Rong Yan would feel uncomfortable, but she could not find a place nearby that could divert his attention for the time being. Coincidentally, Yan Lu was asking for a beating, so she beat him up to coax the child.
As for the Emperor pursuing the matter when she returned, she was not afraid. She used hidden force to beat people up. It was impossible to tell from his appearance.
She sized up Rong Yan. “You seem to have changed a lot after going out.”
Xiao Ran’s eyes warmed as she looked at the sword at his waist. “Everyone says that a young man’s growth is either for ambition or for a girl.. Which one does our Little Rong Yan do it for?”
