On the other hand, Doctor Wang looked for Gu Ying with a solemn expression and told him about the medicine that Yuan Yuan had asked him to find for her.
He was a doctor. Of course, he knew what kind of medicine Yuan Yuan wanted. He knew what kind of effect it would have when she mixed them together. She was obviously trying to do something by asking him for those medicines at this time.
He had gone out for half a day yesterday. When he came back, he was sent by the general to guard him. Then, General Xue led his men out to capture the Prince of the Northern Kingdom.
Now that Yuan Yuan had come to find him, it was obvious that he could connect those things together. She wanted to use him to save the Crown Prince of the Northern Kingdom.
He really didn’t know his place!
But he would never underestimate anyone. In the military camp, even if it was the daughter of a criminal, as long as she was willing, she might be able to do whatever she wanted.
He didn’t want to become a sinner. It wasn’t easy for him to defend until now, and victory was right in front of him. When he returned to the capital, he could have any wife he wanted.
Did he really think that she was a fairy? Did he look that stupid? Would he risk his life for a woman who only thought about another man?
Doctor Wang was even angrier because he realized this. It turned out that he was just a chess piece in her eyes, and a stupid chess piece at that!
Then he would let Yuan Yuan see if he was stupid or not!
“Send those things to him according to what he said. I want to see what she wants to do.’
Gu Ying thought about it for a moment and did not stop him. He asked Doctor
Wang to give him what Yuan Yuan said. He not only wanted to see how Yuan Yuan was courting death, but he also wanted to see if the Crown Prince of the Northern Kingdom was sincere in making peace with them.
If not, they could not be blamed for being ruthless.
“Princess, Princess, the Prince Consort actually let Doctor Wang do as Yuan
Yuan requested.”
Chun Hua received new news.
“l know that Gu Ying must have his own considerations. We just have to watch from the side and not ruin any of their plans.”
“Oh right, go further away when you’re watching the show.”
“Alright, Princess, this servant will go and see what they plan to do next.” Chun Hua stayed with MO Ruyue in the military camp. Other than cooking and washing clothes, she had nothing else to do.
Most importantly, MO Ruyue would not allow her to wait on her after she was done with the chores, which made her even more bored.
After Chun Hua left, Gu Ying came to look for MO Ruyue.
Gu Ying was already in the shower. Doctor Wang went to take a shower, but because he was talking, he didn’t care about his hair. At this moment, water droplets were still dripping from his hair.
“Didn’t you steam my hair dry? Why didn’t you steam your own?”
MO Ruyue went to fetch a piece of dry cotton cloth and helped Gu Ying wipe the water droplets off his hair.
“I don’t have time to see you.”
“I’m sorry for making you suffer with me here.”
Gu Ying looked at MO Ruyue, who had become thinner and thinner ever since she came here, and his heart ached.
However, he knew that MO Ruyue would not agree to let her go back, so he did not say anything else.
MO Ruyue did not expose Gu Yings thoughts. He deliberately did not dry his hair because he wanted her to help him dry it.
“As the saying goes, husband and wife are one. Although we haven’t become a real husband and wife, you’re already my husband in my heart. Of course, wherever you are, I’ll be there.”
MO Ruyue looked at Gu Ying’s full beard. He hadn’t shaved for a long time, which showed how busy he was, so she went along with him this time.
As soon as MO Ruyue said this, Gu Ying grabbed her hand that was drying his hair.
Gu Ying did not expect that he was already MO Ruyue’s husband.
He had always said that he wanted to do something, but he had never done his best. However, his Ruyue had never despised him.
How could he have such a wife?
She was smart, kind, capable, and beautiful. She was the most dazzling one
wherever she went.
However, such an outstanding woman was his wife.
“Ruyue, thank you.”
“Why are you thanking me? Are you trying to draw a line between us?”
MO Ruyue didn’t like to thank people close to her. It felt like she wasn’t even close anymore.
“Alright, I won’t say anything.”
“How long are you going to let Yuan Yuan play with herself?”
MO Ruyue recalled that Gu Yings purpose for coming over was probably to tell her about Yuan Yuan.
“Let’s not talk about this killjoy. Let’s talk about ourselves.”
It was rare for Gu Ying to be alone with MO Ruyue at this moment, so he did not want to talk about a third person other than the two of them.
“Our own business is to quickly end this and then go home to finish what we haven’t finished.’
MO Ruyue knew what the student wanted to hear, so she wasn’t shy and directly told him about the pressing matter between them.
As she spoke, she realized that Gu Yings eyes had become burning and his breathing had become heavy. “The unfinished business.’
“Yes.
Gu Ying mustered up his courage to kiss the person in front of him, but he was afraid of scaring her. However, the person in front of him bent down and did what he wanted to do. For a moment, he almost could not breathe.
The two of them stayed in the tent, waiting for the flowers to bloom. Gu Ying forced himself to stop and helped MO Ruyue tidy up her messy hair.
“It’s not suitable here. I want to stay until our wedding night.”
He didn’t want to spread any bad news about MO Ruyue before the wedding.
MO Ruyue understood what Gu Ying meant. She blushed and glared at him.
He made it sound like she was in a hurry.
“Right, let me tell you something. I left the military camp and stayed in the Snow World Village for six days. I taught them how to grow bean sprouts and dig winter bamboo shoots, but they still couldn’t eat their fill.”
“l also found that there are many herbs on the mountain during winter. Those herbs are considered scarce even if we don’t have them in the south.’
“So, can you expand the Xue Family Bodyguard Agency here? When the time comes, it will be easier for us to trade. That way, everyone can get what they need.’
“There are a lot of wood that can be used to make charcoal in the mountains near the Snow World Village. It’s a waste to not use those trees when they fall.
It’s better to let them make charcoal and sell them.”
“I’ve been living in poverty all this time, and it’s not just Snow World Village. There are many other villages that are in the same situation, but they all have their own specialties that can be traded for food.”
“l need your escort team.”
“Sure, let’s discuss this.’
Gu Ying did not disagree with MO Ruyue’s request. Besides, what she mentioned was a good thing for the country and the people.
MO Ruyue took out a pen and paper and drew a picture of the surrounding mountains and terrains. Then, she and Gu Ying studied it.
After the Xue Family Bodyguard Agency arrived, where was their designated location? The most cost-effective route was marked out, and the local specialties of each village and the nearby poor areas were also marked out.
The two of them talked about this matter in the house for an entire day.
MO Ruyue racked her brains to think of a way to help those people live a better life.
The weather here was too cold. It was too difficult for them to plant a greenhouse. It was impossible.
The northern villages had a warm spring season for half a year. During this half a year, the land could be put to good use..
