Chapter 130 Rushing Back in a Hurry
Chapter 130 Rushing Back in a Hurry
"Of course, I'll cover the expenses." Qin Yu nodded in agreement. Because Yan Wanwan took the initiative to talk to him, he couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart, and his original feeling of embarrassment disappeared.
Yan Wanwan nodded slightly with satisfaction and said slowly, "Okay, since you've agreed, I won't be polite. This time I don't want gold or silver, I want that piece of land in the Western Regions."
Qin Yu's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at her in surprise, his eyes asking silently: "Did you say something wrong?" He had no say in the Western Regions.
Yan Wanwan, however, looked determined and said without question, "I want that piece of land. I believe that General Qin is very capable and will definitely come up with a comprehensive plan to help me get it."
Qin Yu pursed his lips. This was a difficult matter. The Western Regions didn't belong to Daxia to begin with. The only way to take them was by force. While taking them was easy, the subsequent question of ownership was extremely thorny. Once the imperial court learned of it, it would undoubtedly be nationalized. How could a mere general like him have the right to arbitrarily decide the ownership of the land?
Qin Yu frowned, his voice filled with helplessness: "Are you trying to force me to use the second method?"
Yan Wanwan's lips curled up slightly, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. She said softly, "General Qin has always been decisive. I don't care about the specifics of his actions. But when the things are delivered, I hope to see the land completely and completely belong to me."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yu couldn't help but take a deep breath and thought to himself: Now that's good, Yan Wanwan's attitude clearly shows that she is really angry, which is why she threw such a difficult problem to him.
"I understand. I'll get it as soon as possible."
"Then I would like to thank General Qin in advance."
Yan Wanwan smiled brightly and said, "If you want to farm, I have a convenient irrigation method so you don't have to worry about water."
There is an old river outside the city. All we need to do is bring the river water into the city to irrigate the land, and then build a few reservoirs to prepare for emergencies. Overturning the car is a ready-made option.
After she gave a brief explanation, Qin Yu and the others understood what she meant. They became even more curious about the car flip and couldn't wait to try it out.
After saying that, Qin Yu picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp. "Everyone, the situation is critical now. We can only overcome this difficulty if we work together. For the people of this city, for our homeland, let's cheers!"
Everyone responded, and the clinking of glasses was filled with determination to fight to the death.
That night, the candles in the conference room were lit all night long. Everyone carefully planned many matters such as growing crops, exchanging goods, and water conservancy. Until the sky began to turn pale in the east, a detailed self-rescue strategy was initially formed. The huge stone in Qin Yu's heart also fell to the ground a little, and he only had to put it into action and start a new marching mode.
After leaving the military camp, Yan Wanwan and Qin Yu walked forward side by side.
Yan Wanwan was the first to break the silence and asked, "Have you heard anything about my father recently?"
Qin Yu was silent for a moment, then nodded gently and replied, "My father sent me a secret letter a few days ago, saying that he is currently safe and specifically told us not to look for him, so as not to expose our whereabouts."
After hearing this, Yan Wanwan nodded silently to show that she understood, and then asked, "Can I see the letter?"
Qin Yu took out the letter from his arms without hesitation and handed it to Yan Wanwan.
Yan Wanwan took the letter and took a deep breath. A special smell instantly entered her nose. She trembled slightly, but still returned the letter calmly and continued walking forward.
"Now that things here are settled, I'll go back to Nanping first."
Deep in Qin Yu's heart, a voice like a drumbeat urged him urgently, but when the words came out of his mouth, he said, "Would you like to wait for me for a while? I'll go back with you in a few days."
Yan Wanwan raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes scrutinizing her, and she opened her red lips slightly: "Are you sure you can go back?"
Qin Yu: "..."
He was unsure, and was almost certain that the man would never allow him to go back, let alone let him have a smooth life at the border.
Yan Wanwan smiled faintly and said softly, "I can go back by myself."
After that, silence fell between the two again.
Just when Qin Yu finally mustered up the courage to explain what he had said before, Yan Wanwan had already arrived at the inn where he was staying.
She raised her head slightly, looked at Qin Yu, and said calmly, "I'm here. I'll set off tomorrow morning. The fertilizer and tools I promised you will be delivered along with them, and the people accompanying me will teach the soldiers how to use them."
After she finished speaking, she was like a gust of wind, without stopping for a moment, and walked into the house without looking back, leaving Qin Yu standing stiffly at the door, as if she had turned into a stone pillar, losing all reaction.
In the distance, Ling Ying, hidden in a corner, watched this scene, his eyes rolling up into the air, secretly complaining: Where has the general's usual agility and decisiveness gone? Why is it that when faced with this, he is like a gourd with the mouth sawed off, unable to hold back a fart for a long time.
Yan Wanwan left by car before daybreak, but as soon as she left, the whole city was in an uproar.
This was because a grain store in the city with an excellent reputation and good quality and low prices suddenly closed down without any warning.
The people were all panicked and began to discuss: "Why did this shop close so suddenly? Where can we find such good food in the future?"
Yan Wanwan had no intention of exploring or worrying about these subsequent events.
Those people had no relationship with her, and their life or death, fortune or misfortune had nothing to do with her. She had always only cared about her own happiness, so why should she care about what others did?
Since then, Yan Wanwan did not rush back home, but instead took it easy, immersed in the mountains and rivers.
Whenever she encountered an interesting place, she would stay there for at least four or five days, and at most seven or eight days, enjoying the leisure and elegance.
As a result, the journey back to Nanping Prefecture seemed even longer and endless, as if the beautiful scenery of the world was the destination of her journey, and Nanping Prefecture was completely forgotten by her.
Time flies, and two months pass in a flash.
When Yan Wanwan stepped into Nanping Mansion, everyone was stunned. They saw that her face was covered with dust, her hair was messy, and her clothes were tattered. She no longer had any of her former dignity. She looked like someone who had just escaped from the chaos. Nanping Mansion was immediately in an uproar.
"County Princess? She's really the County Princess!"
The doorman of the county lady's mansion was startled when he saw the visitor. He almost didn't recognize his master and hurriedly bowed to welcome the person in.
For a moment, the mansion was in chaos, like a boiling pot.
The people outside didn't know what was going on. They only saw doctors being invited into the mansion one after another, at least three or four in total.
And every time a doctor came out, his face was pale, and he shook his head and sighed. He looked as if the county lady had contracted some incurable disease and would not live long. It was heartbreaking to see.
Everyone was speculating, and the news spread back to the major families in Jingzhao at lightning speed.
