Chapter 999 A good place

"What are you talking about?"

When Wu Fan was guessing who was behind this, Zhao Qi's voice sounded from behind.

"Hello, Princess!" Seeing Zhao Qi approaching, Huang Ze hurriedly saluted.

"You got up early." Wu Fan said casually, and did not salute like Huang Ze. Wu Fan had no interest in these etiquettes, and with Zhao Qi's words yesterday, he naturally would not salute.

Of course, if it was a public place, that would be another story.

Huang Ze glanced at Wu Fan slightly, but did not say anything.

"I was a little excited when I arrived at a new place, so I woke up early." Zhao Qi did not scold Wu Fan again, and talked to Wu Fan like a friend.

Zhao Qi did wake up early today. In the past, she had the habit of staying in bed in the palace. However, now she got up just after the sun rose, which was definitely a rare thing for her.

As for the reason, one is that she finally arrived in Qingyuan County. Out of curiosity, she wanted to see the county as soon as possible. Second, the attack yesterday also shocked her nerves, so she didn't sleep well.

"Wu Fan, let's go out for a walk." Zhao Qi said to Wu Fan excitedly.

"Okay." Wu Fan agreed immediately: "If you are interested, I will accompany you to walk around the city."

Since they met in Yanyang City, Wu Fan knew that Zhao Qi was not a quiet person. A princess dared to "run away from home". This was definitely not something a quiet princess could do. Now that they have arrived in this remote Qingyuan County, without the constraints of the emperor and ministers, Wu Fan did not expect Zhao Qi to stay quietly in the Wu Mansion.

"Let's go, let's go now!" Zhao Qi said excitedly.

"Your Highness, wait a moment, I will go to gather the guards." Huang Ze said.

"No need." Zhao Qi waved her hand and said, "How can I play with a bunch of you following me? You stay here. I'll be fine with Wu Fan here."

"But..." Huang Ze seemed worried.

"Guard Huang, don't worry. With me here, the princess will be fine." Wu Fan said, "You are all injured. You should stay in the mansion and rest well."

At this point, Wu Fan approached Huang Ze slightly and whispered, "The princess's matter is not over yet. The man behind the scenes has not been caught yet. She will need your protection in the future. If you are all injured, you can't protect her."

Huang Ze thought about it and felt that what Wu Fan said made sense. After all, it was safer in the city than outside the city. This was Wu Fan's territory. With him accompanying her, the Seventh Princess should be fine. On the contrary, if the man behind the scenes could not be caught, it would be more dangerous for them to return. If they returned with an injured body, they would not be able to protect the Seventh Princess.

Thinking of this, Huang Ze bowed to Wu Fan and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Lord Wu."

"It's my duty."

Afterwards, Wu Fan and Zhao Qi went out. Zhao Qi didn't even bring Xiao Qing with him this time. She went out with Wu Fan alone. Both of them were very famous in Qingyuan County, but not many people had seen them. Therefore, even if they were walking on the street, no one would recognize them.

"This place is much smaller than Yanyang City." After walking around for a while, Zhao Qi couldn't help but say.

"Of course." Wu Fan said, "Our Qingyuan County is just a remote small county, how can it be compared with Yanyang City? Yanyang City is the imperial capital of our Yanfeng country. There are not many cities on the entire continent that can be compared with Yanyang City."

This is not Wu Fan's deliberate flattery. He has been to Yanyang City himself and knows how magnificent it is. Even compared with modern metropolitan cities, it is not inferior in terms of population and area. In terms of economy, although it cannot be compared with first-tier cities in reality, it is also a top existence in this game world, and naturally it is not comparable to the small Qingyuan County.

However, Wu Fan has already had a transformation plan for Qingyuan County in his heart. If his transformation plan is successful, then even if Qingyuan County cannot be compared with Yanyang City, it will definitely be similar. By then, Qingyuan County will be one of the top and most famous cities on this continent.

The reason why Wu Fan wanted to transform Qingyuan County was because it was his base camp. He wanted to make it the most solid and richest place. The hundreds of thousands of refugees outside the city also provided Wu Fan with enough labor. However, Wu Fan was only a viscount now. Qingyuan County was indeed his fiefdom, but it was also a territory of Yanfeng Country, under the jurisdiction of the old emperor. He had the right to collect taxes here, but not the right to manage it.

Unless he could become the county magistrate here, or obtain special permission from the old emperor.

But both of these were not easy. He was already a viscount of Qingyuan County. If he was appointed as a county magistrate, his power here would be too great. At that time, it would not be difficult to cover the sky with one hand. The old emperor probably didn't want to see this scene.

Therefore, Wu Fan's transformation plan was just a plan. It was difficult to implement it if he wanted to put it into practice.

"That's true." When Wu Fan was thinking about the renovation plan of Qingyuan County, Zhao Qi continued: "There are still many fun things in Yanyang City. I sneaked out a few times before and had a lot of fun. I thought there would be more fun things in Qingyuan County, but... "

"Are you disappointed?" Wu Fan laughed.

"I'm a little disappointed." Zhao Qi said. She came here with the mentality of having fun, but she found that it was not as fun as Yanyang City. She was naturally disappointed.

"Speaking of cities, there are not many places on the whole continent that are more lively than Yanyang City. You should have passed by many cities along the way, so you should have seen it." Wu Fan said.

"Yeah." Zhao Qi nodded. She saw many cities along the way, and she did not find any place more fun than Yanyang City. She thought that it would be more interesting to have Wu Fan in Qingyuan County, but she found that it was the same as other cities when she arrived. In fact, because it was smaller and more remote, it was not as good as other cities.

However, in addition to playing, she also wanted to meet Wu Fan in Qingyuan County this time. So, although she was a little disappointed in the fun, she was able to meet Wu Fan, which satisfied her wish.

Of course, she would not tell Wu Fan about this, and she did not even admit it in front of Xiaoqing.

"If you really want to play, I can take you to a good place." Wu Fan said.

"Where?"

"Do you still remember the pet I gave you?" Wu Fan said.

"Of course I do. It's very cute and I like it very much." Zhao Qi said.

"I know a place with many cute pets. Do you want to..."

"I want to go!" Zhao Qi couldn't wait to speak before Wu Fan finished.

"Haha." Wu Fan laughed: "Let's go back first. The lunch is about to start. I'll take you around after I finish here."
