Chapter 1429 Famine and Natural Disaster 587
After chatting with the old man for a long time, we naturally talked about Fucheng’s government affairs.

Mingyi didn't want to ask more about this matter. She just listened and ate some cakes and fruits. After they finished talking, she bowed and left with Zhou Ting.

Walk out of Fufeng Courtyard.

Zhou Ting grasped her hand again.

Mingyi looked down at the hand she was holding and shook it back; the two warm hands with different touches intertwined together, and warmth and joy spread in her heart.

To love him/her means to be happy when you see him/her, to feel warm when you touch him/her, to have a telepathic connection with him/her, and to feel the beat of his/her heart even without words.

When they arrived at Tao Yiyuan, Zhou Ting had some government affairs to attend to, so he could only tell her to have a good rest and left reluctantly.

After seeing Zhou Ting off, Mingyi had a good sleep.

This sleep lasted for half a day and a whole night. Zhou Ting came to visit her several times but she didn't wake up. He even called Doctor Bai from the city. Chunmei reported Mingyi as soon as she woke up, and Doctor Bai came to check her pulse. After careful questioning, he found out the reason.

"I slept a little deeply, it's okay, let Doctor Bai go back." Mingyi took out five taels of silver from the makeup box and handed it to Chunmei.

Chunmei understood and took the silver ingot, walked around the screen and walked out of the room, first greeting Zhou Ting who was waiting outside, "My Lord, my master has woken up and said he is fine. I'm sorry to trouble Doctor Bai to come here. Take this silver ingot and have some tea."

She stuffed the silver into Doctor Bai's hand.

Zhou Ting asked, "Is your master really alright?"

"To reply to the prince, the master is really fine, it's just that his mind has relaxed." If the master says there is no problem, then there is no problem.

Zhou Ting strode past Chunmei and walked into the house. After entering the house, he stood in the flower hall and looked around. After confirming that the noise was coming from the inner room, he walked around the screen and went in. When he saw Mingyi sitting in front of the dressing mirror combing her hair, the heavy stone in his heart fell completely.

The little girl had a stunning face, with delicate features like Nuwa's show of skill. She had just woken up and looked bookish, with a slender and thin figure, like a weak and frail little girl in the boudoir, and had no aggressiveness.

"Yiyi."

Mingyi glanced sideways and smiled, jokingly saying, "You've been standing there for quite a while, why don't you come over?"

Zhou Ting felt his ears getting hot, so he took a step forward, leaned over slightly and held the person in his arms; the faint body fragrance infected him, and he couldn't help but rub her ears, and spoke in a low and hoarse voice.

"You scared me."

Ming Yi smiled and patted the back of his hand. "I also know medical skills. I know how my body is doing. I relaxed this time and slept a little too hard. I'm sorry to have made you worried."

Zhou Ting shook his head, his low and hoarse voice filled with nostalgia, "I'm glad you're okay."

"Okay, let Chunmei bring me some hot water to wash up. I'll go see the teacher later and have breakfast with him."

"The teacher has already used it. I will accompany you to use some. You can go to the teacher for lunch at noon. After I accompany you to have breakfast, I have to go out and cannot accompany you in the mansion."

Mingyi asked with a slight frown, "What happened that requires you to go there in person?"

"There are some things. Several foreign nobles fled to the northwest. We were not in the northwest, and the teacher did not want to cause trouble, so he ignored them. Now we are back, and they have been ignored for long enough. Since they have shown their sincerity, we must meet them."

Mingyi understood that it was just a meeting, whether he would be settled was another matter.

"I'll go with you to meet him. I don't know which country he is from."

"Two noble families from the grassland and three families from Lanchi are here, all waiting outside the city gate. If you want to see them, you can go with us. If you don't want to go, that's fine. I'm going to meet them to test their background and learn more about the situation outside the grassland. Otherwise, they are not worth meeting in person."

“So how much benefit did they give?”

Zhou Ting smiled and kissed her cheek, with hot air spraying on her cheek, "Horses, cattle, sheep, minerals, food, and rare treasures."

"They are indeed sincere." Thinking of the scene he saw when entering the city, the noble convoy had a large number of people and horses, "They have a large number of people, so it is reasonable to show some sincerity." Once these things fall into Zhou Ting's hands, they will eventually be used on the Northwest Army and the people.

Mingyi chuckled, "We can ask for more minerals, but they can't be too far away; otherwise, it will be inconvenient for us to mine, and it will be time-consuming and labor-intensive to use, which is not cost-effective. In addition, there are natural disasters and man-made disasters. Outside of the northwest, there is unrest everywhere, so the battle line should not be stretched too long."

"Yiyi and I have a tacit understanding."

The hot breath was blowing gently on Mingyi's ears, and her ears felt hot and her cheeks turned red involuntarily. She tried to get out of his arms, but he noticed her intention and held her even tighter.

Zhou Ting seemed to murmur, "Where does Yi Yi want to go?"

She felt hot all over and had no choice but to give up struggling.

"Wait until I'm done washing up and have breakfast."

"Okay." Zhou Tingjun let go of her hand with a smile on his face and said loudly, "Chunmei, bring some hot water."

"Here."

Chunmei bowed respectfully, turned around and left with Doctor Bai.

Zhou Ting turned around and saw her clear face in the mirror. The joy in his heart could not be suppressed and surged out. However, she had already warned him once and he could not do it again. Regretfully, he turned around, walked out of the screen, and sat down at the table in the hall.

Mingyi curled the corners of her lips slightly, and waited quietly for Chunmei to bring hot water for her to wash up, then asked her to put on her makeup, and stood up and walked out from behind the screen.

"Shisheng."

"Very beautiful!" He stared at her intently and stretched out his hand to her.

Mingyi walked forward slowly with light lotus steps and put her hand into his palm; he held her hand immediately and let her sit on the stool with him.

Chunmei came out with the used hot water, kept her eyes down, and bowed to take her leave.

After Chunmei left, a while later, a group of maids brought breakfast.

After filling my stomach, I went with him to the lobby in the front yard. After entering, the hall had become warmer. There were seven or eight foreigners sitting inside. Their facial features were very different from those of people from the northwest, but they all had a strong and domineering aura.

The familiar aura of a superior.

The outsiders also saw the little girl beside Zhou Ting, and they all looked amazed. As for Chunmei, who was one step behind Mingyi, she was completely ignored by them.

Among them were the noble father and daughter from Lan Chi State.

The girl pursed her lips in displeasure and looked at Mingyi critically; her hair was like hanging branches, her face was young but beautiful, her eyebrows were as delicate as a painting, her figure was elegant, and her steps were as smooth as lotus flowers. There was not a single flaw to be found in her.

"Hello, Master. Hello, Miss Cheng." Butler Luo came forward and bowed to greet them.

Zhou Ting waved his hand and took Mingyi's hand to sit in the upper seat.

"Everyone, these two are our Northwestern Zhou Prince and the future Crown Princess. Meet them!" Butler Luo straightened his back. He knew everything. The Crown Prince and Miss Cheng were engaged, and it was confirmed that the Crown Princess would be the future mistress.

"Meet the Crown Prince of Zhou and the Crown Princess of Zhou."

"Meet Prince Zhou, Miss Cheng."

The title is different.

Zhou Ting felt that Prince Zhou's Consort sounded more pleasant, and he was not comfortable hearing the term Miss Cheng. If he was not comfortable, no one else would be comfortable either. He looked coldly at those who had a different title from the other group, and nodded his chin calmly.
