Early the next morning, there was only a thin layer of faint yellow barrier left in the sky, and the barrier on the west side was obviously more transparent, and a hole was about to appear here.
The Daxia Dynasty broke out of camp overnight and returned to Yunmiao Prefecture City. The army that was originally preparing to attack took a defensive posture.
Nowadays, the comparison of national strength between the two sides is very different.
The imperial court of Daxia was heavily in debt for setting up the formation, and the people of Daxia were even unable to operate the most basic operations because of the scam of Tiandi Bank.
When a country is extremely poor, it means that it cannot go to war because it does not have enough to eat and cannot fight.
If they could capture the city of Da Zhou in one go, there was still hope of plundering resources, but it was not like they had never fought before. If Mu Qianyu didn't come, they wouldn't be able to get in.
Not to mention that now that Mu Qianyu is on his own expedition, Dazhou has high morale, powerful weapons and armor, and sufficient money and food.
Therefore, Daxia can only defend now and pray that Dazhou will not send troops.
In addition, the Emperor of Daxia did not forget to send handwritten letters to Dawei and Dayu. Before, he asked them to prepare for a three-sided attack, but now he asked them for help and borrowed money.
Soon the day came to an end. At dusk, the western barrier disappeared. The power of the formation dissipated instantly. The other three barriers could not be maintained and disappeared.
The sky and earth became clear again, and those who had been previously controlled by Yin Qi returned to normal due to the dissipation of Yin Qi, hugging their families together.
In the evening, every household in Dazhou lit up lanterns and celebrated on the streets. The atmosphere was lively, just like the Chinese New Year.
Every household has a stove in front of the door, exchanging freshly cooked food with each other. Children play together in groups, eating wherever they go. It feels so comfortable.
Mu Qianyu likes this way of celebrating very much because he can eat and drink.
This time she went out on the street and slightly adjusted her facial contours. After all, when she was the prefect last time, she was recognized while eating, which was quite embarrassing.
Nannan and Xiao Ruo were jumping up and down the street, while Mu Qianyu and Nangong Zhi were walking behind. Although they didn't say anything, they were full of emotions in their hearts.
"Will these people who were once controlled by Yin Qi leave any sequelae?" Mu Qianyu asked.
"Yes, the Yin Qi has damaged their Yang Qi, and they need pills to repair it."
"Can it be fully repaired?"
"yes."
Mu Qianyu immediately nodded and said: "If money can solve the problem, it is not a problem. I will order someone to refine the elixir and send it to you."
"So generous? Do you know this costs a lot of money?"
"Money must be spent on the cutting edge. It is related to people's livelihood, and that is the cutting edge." Mu Qianyu said with a smile and said: "Besides, I have made a lot of money recently, and I am worried about not being able to spend it."
Nangong Zhi chuckled upon hearing this: "You are always like a child."
"Did you praise me for being cute?" Mu Qianyu raised his eyebrows at her.
"There is no formality." Nangong Zhi exposed it mercilessly.
"Then you are conquered by my charm and are willing to be mine?" Mu Qianyu said with a proud look on his face.
"I am your minister."
"I want the same, the same ministers and three thousand beauties from the previous dynasty." Mu Qianyu smiled.
Nangong Zhi stroked his forehead. It was hard to imagine that the man in front of him had killed Yama with one sword just a few days ago. He couldn't find any of his charm that day at this moment.
"When it comes to this, we have to discuss it." Mu Qianyu looked at her with a gossipy face: "Do you have a sweetheart?"
"No." Nangong Zhi replied without hesitation. Her confused eyes didn't even understand why she asked this question.
"Then consider looking for it? I can tell you what kind of thing you are looking for."
Nangong Zhi shook her head: "I am a Feng Shui master. Have you ever seen any Feng Shui master with a partner?"
"Isn't that because they are ugly?"
"All abilities come with a price." Nangong Zhi said calmly: "So, I don't think about getting married."
Mu Qianyu looked at her carefully. She said that there was no loneliness or desolation in her expression. She seemed to think this was a normal thing.
"So you gave up your man for your career."
"It's not that I gave up, it's that I didn't consider that they would affect me." Nangong Zhi continued.
Mu Qianyu nodded repeatedly and gave a thumbs up: "A truly independent woman, I admire her."
"Um?"
"I mean, don't you belong to me?" Mu Qianyu smiled and put his arms around her shoulders, with a smile that was like a bully teasing a girl.
Nangong Zhi had nothing to do with her, so she laughed and said, "You can think like this if you want."
"Happiness comes so suddenly." Mu Qianyu joked, and then said: "By the way, you were in seclusion for a while a while ago, and you said you came out of seclusion to give me a surprise. Where is the surprise?"
Hearing this, Nangong Zhi looked at her with cold eyes: "We were almost successful, but you interrupted my retreat."
"Really?" Mu Qianyu scratched his head: "Isn't that also an urgent matter?"
"I still need to retreat for a while to understand the secret scroll inherited from Feng Shui." Nangong Zhi said and then looked at Mu Qianyu and said, "I will try my best this time."
"Okay, then I'll try not to disturb you. Let's go, there are meatballs to eat." Mu Qianyu said and took Nangong Zhi to the door of a house.
She opened her mouth with a bunch of auspicious words, which made a middle-aged couple smile and give her a lot of meatballs.
Nangong Zhi felt that even if Mu Qianyu was down one day and went to beg for food, he would not go hungry.
"Here, it's delicious." Mu Qianyu handed it to Nangong Zhi.
Nangong Zhi shook her head slightly: "No."
"It's really delicious. Open your mouth." Mu Qianyu tied a ball with a skewer and brought it to her mouth.
Nangong Zhi couldn't stand her, so she had to slowly open her mouth, then slowly bite down, cover her face with her sleeves, and chew bit by bit.
"How is it?" Mu Qianyu asked impatiently.
But Nangong Zhi insisted on eating the meatballs completely, wiped her mouth and said, "Well, it's delicious."
"But the way you eat doesn't give people this impression." Mu Qianyu joked, this person is really old-fashioned.
Nangong Zhi shook her head slightly: "You shouldn't be eating on the street."
Mu Qianyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Apart from giving a thumbs up, there were no words to describe her.
Nannan and Xiao Ruo were very happy in front of them, eating and drinking everywhere. Because they were cute, they didn’t even have to ask for food. Naturally, someone would bring it to them.
The two little guys' mouths were bulging and their hands were full. Occasionally, they looked back with smiles in their eyes.
"It would be great if we could celebrate this kind of festival more often." Mu Qianyu sighed with emotion.
"Isn't it just a matter of your words?" Nangong Zhi reminded her: "Have you suddenly forgotten who you are?"
Mu Qianyu slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, now you listen to me. You can stipulate that every festival be celebrated this way. If the funds are insufficient, I will make up for it."
It suddenly dawned on her that she could do many things with power and money.
