Because of the disagreement, everyone had to stay in Jiangrao County for one more day.
The prefect Jin Feng was particularly excited because he had saved his life. Although he was a little embarrassed, he still entertained Wen Ranran and the others well the next day.
"My lord and princess, this is the new tea picked in Jiangrao County this year. Try it!"
Jin Feng served tea in person, apparently treating Wen Ranran and Xia Lishuang as living Bodhisattvas.
Xia Lishuang sipped her tea and looked at Jin Feng, "You colluded with foreign enemies before, aren't you afraid that I will report it to the court to punish you for collaborating with the enemy?"
Xia Lishuang's tone was half truthful and half false, making Jin Feng's legs weaken instantly.
It took a while before I managed to steady myself.
"I will bear it even if the prince wants to kill me or chop me into pieces! After all," Jin Feng stammered, looked at Xia Lishuang, and knelt down with a thud, "But can I be given a lighter punishment? After all, I committed suicide yesterday.
"Making bait"
"puff--"
Wen Ranran couldn't hold it back and laughed directly.
"Hahahahahahahaha you are so cute! Your Majesty is teasing you! This time, it's all thanks to you!"
"Ah?" Jin Feng opened his mouth wide, obviously his emotions had not yet recovered from the great joy and sorrow.
Wen Ranran smiled and said, "Don't worry! You have saved the people of Jiangrao County in disguise this time. You will not be punished. If you are punished, it will probably be a small salary or something!"
Only then did Jin Feng feel relieved and began to talk loudly again, shouting that the prince was wise.
"Jiangrao County has indeed managed well during this period, which shows your intentions. It is a great achievement that you can deal with the thieves to this point! I will explain it to my father later!"
Xia Lishuang also had a smile on her face.
Jin Feng is not a heroic figure who sacrifices his life for the country and the people. He may even be just one of thousands of scholars who have embarked on an official career. He has the advantages and disadvantages common to all scholars.
Because he has read a book and is accustomed to the righteousness of a gentleman, he can do his best to serve the country and the people as impartially as possible. However, because he has never experienced any real life and death since he was a child, he seems a little timid in the face of the threat of death.
Although the previous dealings with the thieves may not have been for the sake of the people, but just to save lives, a strange combination of circumstances prevented a tragic disaster within Jiangrao County.
After Xia Lishuang arrives, she can even choose to use her body as bait.
Sometimes, heroes are not perfect, and they even have some weaknesses of ordinary people, but as long as at a certain moment, they break their own principles and stand up, then they are worthy of the title of hero.
"Okay, okay, didn't you just pee your pants once?" Feng Cheng patted Jin Feng's shoulder so hard that he almost hit him on the ground.
"What's wrong with a great man, leaving others alone?"
Jin Feng twitched the corner of his mouth and glanced at Feng Cheng resentfully.
Almost everyone present spared him face, so they all had the good sense not to mention it!
And this big guy in front of me
"Don't worry! I'll practice my courage with you when my brother comes back!"
Jin Feng: No! He doesn’t want to practice courage!
"Feng Cheng, if you want to practice your courage with him, I'm afraid you won't have a chance!" Xia Lishuang looked at Feng Cheng with a cold face, a look of solemnity deep in her eyes.
"Um?"
"Today we count 10,000 Feiyun Cavalry elite troops. Qing Qi, you lead the troops with me and go to the front line first!"
"Ah? What?!" Feng Cheng was stunned, "Then the princess and Wan Guang gave birth to them?"
"They will stay here for the time being, escort the food and grass, and continue to manage the army's advance!" Xia Lishuang's eyes had a faint murderous look.
The few people sitting down, whether they were civil servants or military attachés, were almost stunned, expressing surprise at Xia Lishuang's decision.
After all, they can understand everything else, but how can Wan Guangsheng, a powerless civil servant and a daughter, manage the rest of the army?!
