"Go to the yamen and pass on Bengong's words. Tell them that Bengong has asked them to send all the people who can move to the city gate for instructions.”Xuan Linyu finished speaking calmly before standing up and walking towards the open space outside the city.
The guard received the order and rushed to the county government. When the magistrate heard that the Fifth Prince had sent someone to inform them to go to the city gate, he did not dare to delay and ordered everyone to quickly follow the guard to the city gate.
It took the magistrate and the others an hour to arrive at the city gate. One could imagine how fast they were, afraid of being punished by the Fifth Prince if they were late. When Xuan Linyu saw the people from the county office, his gaze turned even colder and his body temperature dropped by several degrees. The hot weather made people want to put on more clothes.
"This humble servant greets the Fifth Prince." The magistrate led the county government runners to salute Xuan Linyu, the sweat on his forehead not being wiped away in a hurry. He could only let it fall.
Xuan Linyu was in a daze for a moment before coldly asking them to get up. The magistrate wiped the sweat off his forehead, thinking to himself, could it be that they were late and the Fifth Prince was angry?
"May I know why the Fifth Prince summoned us here?”The magistrate spoke carefully, afraid that he would offend Xuan Linyu again.
"Tell your men to quickly build houses on this empty land so that the disaster victims can have a place to live.”Xuan Linyu ignored the magistrate's stunned expression and continued to order them around.
When the disaster victims heard that they were going to build houses for them, they looked at Xuan Linyu with tears in their eyes and gratitude. In their hearts, they silently agreed that the Fifth Prince was really a living Buddha. For several days, not only did the government not allow them to enter the city, but they insisted on entering the city and were beaten up by the guards before being expelled from the city. These few days, they could only starve outside the city and did not dare to cause trouble and seek justice from the county government.
It was the Fifth Prince who had saved them and made them no longer in danger. The disaster victims knelt down and kowtowed to Xuan Linyu as if they had a tacit understanding. "Thank you, Fifth Prince, for your great kindness.”
The magistrate saw that the disaster victims were all kneeling down and did not dare to stand there and kneel down as well. His inner clothes were already drenched in sweat and stuck to his body tightly. He didn't even dare to breathe loudly and obediently lowered his head, waiting for the Fifth Prince to speak.
"No need for formalities." This sound was like a heavy weight that struck the hearts of the disaster victims. It also gave hope to the disaster victims. The eyes of the disaster victims flickered with hope. The image of the Fifth Prince in their hearts had already far surpassed the current Emperor.
However, they seemed to have forgotten that the Fifth Prince had come to help them on the Emperor's orders. Of course, the matter of building the house was Xuan Linyu's own idea.
The bailiffs didn't dare to delay any longer. They picked up their weapons and began to repair the houses. However, there were too many victims. It was far from enough to rely on the bailiffs. Xuan Linyu called all the guards he brought over to help.
Some of the disaster victims who were in a better condition could not help but follow to help. Usually, these bailiffs would not care about it, but today, they were overjoyed. When one disaster victim went to help, there would be a second one. Then, more and more disaster victims united to help.
Xuan Linyu smiled in relief when he saw this. He sat at the side and let them do whatever they wanted.
Mo Shangqiu stayed at the Crescent Moon Spring for six to seven days, staying behind to discuss with the craftsmen the specific facilities to improve the pavilion. Mo Shangqiu silently supervised the craftsmen for a few days. Seeing that the craftsmen did not neglect them, she left with a peace of mind.
Before he left, he instructed the maids to renovate the garden into a certain style after the construction was completed. Only after bidding farewell to Ye Jian did he leave in peace. He would probably not return for a few months.
Mo Shangqiu spent a day's time and finally arrived at the capital. Dressed in men's clothing, she swaggered into a drunken stupor. When the brothel madame saw that it was her, she welcomed her with a gorgeous smile.
Mo Shangqiu went straight to Mu Chuxue after entering Drunken Life and Death. At this moment, Mu Chuxue was supporting her head with one hand and looking at the stars in the night sky.
She had not seen Mo Shangqiu for a few days, and she did not dare to go out to look for her. Outside, there were all those flirtatious men. Mu Chuxue really did not have the face to swagger around. Can you imagine an unmarried woman walking openly in a brothel, not afraid of the world's words? After all, Mu Chuxue's thoughts were not as avant-garde as Mo Shangqiu's and could not keep up with her style.
Mo Shangqiu, dressed in men's clothing, pushed the door open and entered. Mu Chuxue was stunned when she looked up and saw that it was an unfamiliar man. When she saw clearly, she realized that it was the Sister Mo she had been thinking about day and night. The smile on her small face was really charming. He ran over to Mo Shangqiu, his smiling face instantly turning aggrieved.
She looked at Mo Shangqiu pitifully with tears in her eyes, just like an abandoned wife. Mo Shangqiu chuckled and walked past Mu Chuxue to sit beside her. The smile in her eyes deeply betrayed her emotions. She had always had good self-control, but she often lost it in front of Mu Chuxue.
Sister Mo, where did you go?" Mu Chuxue pouted her lips in dissatisfaction, her aggrieved eyes staring at Mo Shangqiu.
Mo Shangqiu calmly sipped on her herbal tea and glanced at her without leaving a trace. She hesitated for a while before replying," There are some things that you shouldn't ask.”
That cold tone startled Mu Chuxue. It was as if she had returned to the day she first met Mo Shangqiu. That was because Mo Shangqiu was cold and heartless. If Mo Shangqiu was cold and heartless, he probably would not have saved her back then. Thus, Mo Shangqiu was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. She berated Mu Chuxue because she didn't want to expose her secret base.
Mu Chuxue's eyes dimmed and lost the luster from before. She blankly replied with an 'oh' and sat at the side without saying anything. Her fragile heart was deeply hurt by Mo Shangqiu's words.
Mo Shangqiu felt a little guilty when she saw her like this, but in the end, she did not say anything to comfort her. Perhaps this was good for Mu Chuxue. In the future, she would know what to ask and what not to ask. It would also guarantee her life. The more she knew, the faster she would die. This was the logic that Mo Shangqiu believed.
After sitting for half a night, Mo Shangqiu finally instructed Mu Chuxue to rest early. Before she left, she stopped and asked if she wanted to go to the Heavenly Nuo Realm with her. Mu Chuxue did not say anything and just nodded. Mo Shangqiu did not say anything else and left the room to return to her own private room. She thought that it was not suitable for her to stay in the same room with Mu Chuxue at this time. Some things were better for her to think about it herself.
Mo Shangqiu returned to her room and quickly fell asleep. The slight smile on her face indicated that she had a good dream. Moonlight shone through the window and shone on the little person on the bed. It was like a dream, and people could not help but take a second look.
Mu Chuxue tossed and turned in her room, trying her best to think about the meaning behind Mo Shangqiu's words. She was not dissatisfied with Mo Shangqiu's cold words, but she was afraid that Mo Shangqiu would abandon her again. These days, she had truly treated Mo Shangqiu like her biological sister, relying on Mo Shangqiu for everything. Naturally, she was afraid that one day, she would return to the days when she was alone.
As she thought about it, she understood that it was fine as long as she didn't ask about the things that Mo Shangqiu didn't want to tell her. It wouldn't be too late to wait until Mo Shangqiu was willing to talk about it. The worry on her face disappeared, and a smile appeared on her face. She pulled up the blanket and went to sleep peacefully. After thinking it through, she fell asleep. However, after a while, Mu Chuxue fell asleep quietly.
As time passed, the sky had already revealed its white belly. Mo Shangqiu yawned and slowly got up to wash up. Mu Chuxue had already packed her luggage and was waiting for Mo Shangqiu to find her and leave.
By the time Mo Shangqiu went to look for her, it was already 15 minutes later. As soon as she entered, she saw Mu Chuxue looking at her with a smile. He was fully prepared with a bag in his hand, waiting for her to give the order to charge into the battle.
Mo Shangqiu's expression had also warmed up a lot. A doting look that she had not noticed flashed across her starry eyes.
After breakfast, the two of them left Drunken Life and Dreamy Death together and went out of the city gates to the Heavenly Nuo Jie.
The Fifth Prince, Xuan Linyu, personally went to supervise the construction of the small town in the south of Xuan Lin Nation every day. As he watched the small house gradually being built, his frosty face also warmed up a little. Looking at the peaceful smiles of the disaster victims, it was not in vain for him to come here. To be able to see the people living and working in peace and contentment was what every emperor wanted to see the most.
The days passed day by day. Mo Shangqiu was heading to the Heavenly Nuo Realm while the Fifth Prince was improving the lives of the disaster victims. Ye Wushang was handling some affairs in the Cold Jade Palace, preparing to attack the Dark Night Hall to lure out the traitor. Although he knew very well who had betrayed him, he still hoped that it wasn't her!
Another ten days had passed, and Mo Shangqiu had already spent more than two months on this journey. There was still more than half a month before the Martial Arts Circle Convention. Mo Shangqiu had to rush back to Xuanlin Country from the Heavenly Nuo Realm before the Martial Arts Circle Convention's competition.
After a fourteen-day journey, they finally arrived at the Heavenly Nuo Realm. Mo Shangqiu felt extremely exhausted. Not only her, but even Mu Chuxue was equally exhausted. Even a person who had the spirit and energy to travel for half a month would not be able to endure it.
The two of them found an inn to rest in tacit understanding. They were so tired that they did not even eat dinner. He slept until noon the next day before he got up to eat. He asked his second brother where he could forge swords in the capital and left the inn. This time, the two of them did not walk like before. They rented a carriage and let the coachman lead them to the swordsmithing shop.
As expected, the moment he entered the door, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. What greeted his eyes were all kinds of flexible swords. As expected of Soft Sword City. Presumably, only the Heavenly Nuo Realm had so many flexible swords. Mo Shangqiu walked into the shop quietly. A burly swordsmith brought Mo Shangqiu to choose a sword.
Mo Shangqiu carefully picked up the sword, his eyes focused on the swordsmith as he explained everything. Seeing that Mo Shangqiu was also a person who knew his stuff, he put in even more effort to recommend her. In the end, Mo Shangqiu chose a flexible sword that she was satisfied with and left.
After staying in the Heavenly Nuo Jie for a few days, the date of the Martial Arts Circle Convention was getting closer and closer. Mo Shangqiu did not dare to delay any longer. She gathered her emotions and headed to Xuanlin Country. Time was already tight, and no matter what, someone had to block the way.
Mo Shangqiu looked at the groups of men in black in front of her. She had no choice but to look for her even if she did not want to cause trouble. Pulling out the flexible sword at her waist, she swept her gaze across the cold aura that followed. Fortunately, these people had arrived at the right time to sharpen her flexible sword. It was not bad to use blood as a sacrifice. The corners of his mouth were filled with a wicked smile. He closed his eyes and enjoyed a moment of peace.
When Mo Shangqiu opened her eyes again, the calmness in her eyes was replaced by killing intent. The sinister face looked down at the black-robed man in front of him like a demon from hell.
Mu Chuxue and Mo Shangqiu walked together, maintaining a parallel distance. He was slightly nervous. There were quite a number of black-clothed people in front of him. There were only two of them. Although their martial arts were not weak, the chances of winning against them were too small.
She tilted her head to look at Mo Shangqiu and asked her what she should do. Mo Shangqiu gave her a reassuring look. He stopped looking at her and focused on the man in black.
