Chapter 220 Mine is better
"My lord, we went to the mountain to hunt two pheasants early in the morning, and we wanted to give you some nourishment. But the sixth prince wanted to stop us." Jing Mu was the first to complain.

"We use the flour we brought ourselves." Shu Yun was also unhappy.

"My lord, your status is weak. You ate snacks at noon yesterday, and wild vegetables at night. If this goes on like this, if you don't reach Nanping, your body will not be able to take it anymore." She also said worriedly.

Huo Qiqi waved his hand to stop some loyal subordinates.

She took a step forward and apologized to Li Yuanbai, "The Sixth Prince taught me a lesson very well. It is because I am not strict with my subordinates. This will not happen again in the future."

She took a step back, and Li Yuanbai did not continue to embarrass her, "Since you have done it, there is no need to waste it. Don't make an example."

After hearing this, Jian Yu and the others secretly glared at him at the same time.

Huo Qiqi smiled and shook his head, "Everyone goes out together, of course I can't be special. Cut the feathers, divide the chicken soup into several large pots, don't waste the flour, let's make all of them into sliced ​​noodles."

"Young master." Jian Yu was not reconciled.

"Hurry up and go." Huo Qiqi's face darkened.

"Yes, I'll go now, little one." Jian Yu and Jing Mu agreed and went down.

Shu Yun hurried over to comb her hair, and then fetched clean water from the stream.

The combing of the hair was very simple, Huo Qiqi directly tied the hair with the hosta, and then washed his face with a handkerchief dipped in water.

Everyone around Huo Qiqi seemed to have received her true biography. Although the chicken soup was diluted, the chicken soup was not too thick.But after cutting Yu and Jing Mu's hands, the dough made is very delicious.

When serving the rice, Huo Qiqi, like everyone else, filled a bowl randomly.

Seeing this, Jian Yu felt even more resentful towards Li Yuanbai.After they filled it up, they directly put the dough from their own bowls into Huo Qiqi's bowl.

Li Yuanbai didn't even look at it, and took the dry food and drank the noodle soup with a calm expression.

Perhaps it was because Huo Qiqi had a better attitude. When she was packing her luggage, the guards finally looked at her with kinder eyes.

"My lord, is the Sixth Prince too lenient?" Jing Mu complained in a low voice on the carriage.

"He's also doing it for our own good." Huo Qiqi replied flatly. She was talking to Li Yuanbai, not to say how much she liked Li Yuanbai, but to discuss the matter, "Going out will inevitably cause a lot of inconvenience. This time we are talking If we go out in the name of disaster relief, if we live too extravagantly along the way, even if we take things out, it will have an impact on the reputation of our Duke Huguo Mansion. Secondly, we are also a member of the team, and most of the guards are The subordinates of the Sixth Prince, as a man, I am so arrogant, they also look down on us."

"Young master taught me a lesson. After sharing the chicken soup, those people finally looked at us with less hostility." Jian Yu said softly.

"So, when looking at people, you can't always think of people as bad." Huo Qiqi taught them.

Jian Yu and Jing Mu nodded in agreement, and the two secretly thought that they would talk to Shu Yun and Jing Feng when they were free at night.

When they are away from home, without the protection of the Duke Protector's Mansion, they must not cause trouble to their master because of their willfulness.

After reading the book for a while, Huo Qiqi soon fell asleep.

Jing Mu and Jian Yu watched over her without making a sound.

At noon, everyone still ate dry food while walking, and Huo Qiqi's side was no exception. However, they were in the carriage, and there were naturally delicious food in the carriage.

Since the carriage is an independent space, Li Yuanbai will not control her.

They walked like this for seven or eight days, and finally on the eighth day, they rested at a post for the night.

Everyone relaxed, and Li Yuanbai ordered the people at the post station to go out and buy a batch of dry food to take on the road, and then let the horses rest completely and wash them.

This night was also the night that Huo Qiqi slept most soundly.

Jian Yu and the others specially asked for some leftover rice at the post station, and then went out to buy food boxes, vegetables and fruits and came back.

They were smart, and when they made rice balls for Huo Qiqi, they specially made some more and gave them to Li Yuanbai and several other officials.

The law does not blame the public, and they use leftovers.

Even Li Yuanbai didn't say much, instead he asked them to send a message to Huo Qiqi to thank them.

Seeing that he didn't make things difficult, Jian Yu and the others were secretly happy, and finally their prejudice against Li Yuanbai changed a little.

Next, he hurried on his way again.

"Master Huo Qiqi, let's go a little further, but we will arrive at Nanping territory." Wu Qingliang squeezed into Huo Qiqi's carriage and whispered to her. "One day at most. Fortunately, we have a large number of people and are eye-catching. No one dares to think about us."

"Nanping's waterways have grown over the years, and the river bed has risen, and because the terrain the river flows through is too complicated, over the years, every summer, large and small floods have occurred from time to time. We are here, hoping to find a way to alleviate it. Two." Zhang Wu didn't hide anything, and directly discussed the official affairs of the Ministry of Industry.

"As the river bed rises, we can only raise the edge of the river. As long as the edge of the river is high enough, we won't be afraid that the river will break down the embankment again." Jiang Jingshi said shaking his head.

The three officials are not too old, and they are only in their early thirties. They are the youngest candidates in the Ministry of Industry.So to a certain extent, they could still talk to Huo Qiqi.

"The terrain is too complicated. To reinforce the levee, manpower and financial resources are all problems." Zhang Wu said with a sigh.

"Floods occur every year in Nanping, the income of the people decreases, and the adults of the state government turn to the court for help every year. It is also difficult for the Holy One." Wu Qingliang was also depressed.

Huo Qiqi didn't know the terrain of Nanping, so she didn't want to express any opinions.But the three officials sighed. If she didn’t express something, it seemed that she couldn’t justify it. “My lords, as the saying goes, there must be a way for a car to reach the mountain. Since the flood in Nanping is not a problem that has been accumulated for a year or two, even if we The Holy Majesty will not blame us for failing to come up with a solution once. Besides, the Sixth Prince is smart and capable, and with him around, there may be a breakthrough in the problem."

Zhang Wu and the others nodded slightly after hearing this.

What Huo Qiqi said made some sense. In fact, when they came here, surveying the waterways was a routine matter, and disaster relief was the main thing.

As they gradually approached the border of Nanping, Huo Qiqi and his team gradually saw a lot of fleeing people along the way.

On the third day, they finally arrived at the Nanping state capital. Li Yuanbai, who had never talked to Huo Qiqi, got into Huo Qiqi's carriage for some reason.

"There is a plague in Nanping. This is the antidote pill. You take it first." Li Yuanbai didn't talk nonsense, and after getting into the carriage, he handed Huo Qiqi a small porcelain bottle.

Huo Qiqi didn't refuse, took the bottle, uncorked the bottle and poured out the pills, she didn't put it in her mouth, but sniffed it carefully.Finally, she put the pills into a porcelain bottle and handed them to Li Yuanbai, "I appreciate the sixth prince's kindness, but I also made some detoxification pills myself, and I think my own is better."
