Chapter 1170 Encounter

Yun Zheng stayed in Jingyang Prefecture for five days.

After summoning the main generals to Jingyang Prefecture for a meeting, he left Jingyang Prefecture with Miaoyin and his personal guards.

It took me a few days to run back from Gantang, and it took me a few more days to return to Jingyang Prefecture.

All this trouble brings the New Year even closer.

We must rush back to Shuofang before the New Year.

Yun Zheng was in a hurry along the way. After arriving in Sifang County, he took a day to visit the Technical Research Institute.

Today, the Technical Research Institute has been fully formed, with more than 300 people specializing in the research and improvement of various production technologies.

However, most of them are still apprentices, and only a few are master chefs.

The families of these people were also sent to a small town outside the Institute of Technology and settled there.

When Yun Zheng arrived at the Institute of Technology, it was natural for him to reward these people.

At the same time, I also discussed various techniques with those master chefs.

However, as always, he will provide some ideas and thoughts, and how to implement them depends on the level of these master chefs.

After passing Beilu Pass, the temperature dropped sharply, the snow on the road became deeper, and their marching speed slowed down.

Before dark, they arrived at Le'an Town.

To be precise, this place should now be called Le'an City.

After such a long period of construction, Le'an has completely taken on the appearance of a small city.

However, the city wall of Le'an is indeed a bit lacking.

The city wall is only two meters high and there are no battlements. It feels like a joke.

However, Yun Zheng knew that this left space for raising the city wall.

It is basically impossible for the enemy to attack Le'an now, so it is enough to have a certain shape of the city wall. We can raise the city wall higher after Le'an is well developed in the future.

"Now it seems that your order to build Le'an City was very wise!"

Riding on horseback with Yun Zheng on the streets of Le'an, Miaoyin couldn't help but sigh.

When they passed by Le'an before, they were in a hurry to go to Fuzhou and didn't have time to take a good look at Le'an City.

Now, after a closer look, I realize that Le'an has changed a lot.

Especially after the administrative center of Shuobei was moved to Shuofang, Le'an City, located on a major trade route, developed very rapidly.

Even though it is winter now, the streets are still crowded with people because the New Year is approaching, and many people have put on new clothes in advance.

Various shops on both sides of the street were also crowded with people, and the hawkers' shouts were endless.

If Miaoyin didn’t know what Le’an looked like before, she wouldn’t have believed that this was a city that had only existed for less than three years.

“I’m not that farsighted.”

Yun Zheng laughed, "This is at most an accidental achievement! We had no other choice at the beginning, so we settled those refugees here..."

Yun Zheng did not expect Le'an to develop so fast.

If it continues to develop like this for another ten years or so, Le'an will probably catch up with Mayi, the transit station.

"In fact, you should bring Jiayao to Le'an." Miaoyin chuckled: "When she sees today's Le'an, she may be able to see the future of Beihuan."

Gayao!

Speaking of Jia Yao, Yun Zheng couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

I originally thought that going to Fuzhou was not a big deal, I could just go for a look and come back, and take advantage of the cool autumn weather to visit the Beihuan Royal Court.

As a result, they stayed in Fuzhou for three months.

Now that the New Year is approaching, it is definitely impossible for him to go to the Beihuan Royal Court.

You can't go there until spring.

Well, just right!

At that time, I will also talk to Jia Yao about using military force against the Le Dynasty.

Make an emergency landing if possible.

If you can’t force a landing, then fight!

"Someone is calling you!"

Just as Yun Zheng was daydreaming, Miaoyin's voice sounded in his ears again.

"Call me? Who called me?"

Yun Zheng came back to his senses, looking puzzled.

"Well, isn't that it!"

Miaoyin raised her hand and pointed to the pharmacy in front of them on the right.

Yun Zheng looked up and saw two women at the door of the pharmacy waving at him.

However, Yun Zheng was a little far away, and the snowflakes in the sky blocked his view, so he did not recognize the two women.

It was not until they got a little closer that Yun Zheng recognized that the people waving at him were Lan Hua and her maid.

But unfortunately, Yun Zheng forgot the name of her maid.

Yun Zheng dismounted and walked straight towards Lan Hua, looking at the two of them curiously, "Why did you two come to Le'an?"

Probably because of the cold weather, the two girls' faces were a little red from the cold.

The maid was holding a few doses of medicine in her hand.

Lan Hua and Xiao Cui bowed to Yun Zheng and then replied, "We plan to go to Shuofang to find our cousin."

"No wonder!"

Yun Zheng suddenly realized something, and his eyes fell on the several doses of medicine in Xiao Cui's hand. "Who is this medicine for? Is anyone of you sick?"

When asked by Yun Zheng, Lan Hua and Xiao Cui's expressions suddenly became a little strange.

Seeing that there was something wrong with the expressions of the two people, a hint of understanding flashed in Yun Zheng's eyes.

I guess this is a medicine for treating diseases like irregular menstruation.

They were probably too embarrassed to say it.

Forget it, it’s better not to ask about my daughter’s private affairs.

Thinking of this, Yun Zheng said, "It just so happens that we are going back to Shuofang as well. You can go with us!"

"This... I'm afraid it won't work."

Lan Hua lowered her eyebrows and said, "My uncle is ill. I think he will need to rest for a few days before he gets better..."

uncle?

Wu Dao?

"Your uncle and the others came along as well?"

Yun Zheng was surprised, "So, you got this medicine for your uncle?"

These two are really something.

Are they still shy about prescribing medicine for Wu Dao?

Do all ladies from noble families have this style?

"Ah."

Lan Hua nodded gently, "We arrived in Le'an more than ten days ago. If my uncle hadn't been sick, we would have reached Shuofang a long time ago."

"Is your uncle seriously ill?"

Miaoyin took over the conversation, "I also know a little bit about medicine, I can help him."

"Thank you for your kindness, Madam." Lan Hua looked at Miao Yin gratefully and replied, "It's not serious, I just need to rest for a while."

Listening to Lan Hua's words, Xiao Cui subconsciously wanted to speak.

But after hesitating for a moment, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Yun Zheng noticed that Xiao Cui was hesitant to speak, and immediately realized that something was wrong, and asked, "What happened to your uncle?"

Wu Qingyang works under him.

Wu Qingyang's father is sick, he must show some concern for him!

"It's really nothing."

Lan Hua shook her head, but there was a hint of panic on her face.

"That's your uncle, are you still going to hide his illness?"

Miaoyin frowned, "Tell me what's going on quickly. If you delay your uncle's treatment, it will be too late for you to regret it!"

"It's really... it's nothing..."

Lan Hua was even more flustered and avoided the gazes of the two men.

Seeing that Lan Hua still refused to speak, Yun Zheng was too lazy to ask any more questions. "Forget it! I'm too lazy to ask you anymore. Take us to see your uncle!"

"This……"

Lan Hua was really panicked this time.

Xiao Cui's face also became flustered.

Looking at the two of them, Yun Zheng felt speechless and helpless.

What is this!

I want to go see Wu Dao out of kindness, but they are being coy?

What’s going on? Are they plotting to kill Wu Dao?

I really don’t know what’s going on in their heads!

"My uncle's condition is really not serious."

After hesitating for a moment, Lan Hua finally spoke again: "I just want to tell His Majesty something. Please don't be angry..."

uh-huh?

Yun Zheng and Miao Yin both looked surprised.
