Yecheng has been deserted for decades. Almost no one has set foot in it, and there is no place for people to live. The Feng family army searched for a long time but could not find a cleaner place. Finally, they set their sights on the largest mansion in Yecheng.
That is the original palace of Yiguo.
The country of Yi is a small country, and the palace is about the same size as the mansions of the officials of the Qin Dynasty. However, the palace of Yi is not built of wood, but of stone.
Because Yecheng is surrounded by desert and there are frequent sandstorms, most of the houses are made of stones. Otherwise, they would have been weathered by the wind and sun over the years and would not be preserved at all.
In the desert, water resources are extremely precious. Although Qin Jiyan and his party brought a lot of water, they could not waste it on cleaning. The Feng family army only cleaned out one clean house for Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng to live in.
Only a layer of sand was hastily removed from the place, and then they rested.
In fact, the Feng family army originally wanted to clean the two rooms, but was stopped by the secret guards, and the two sides had a small dispute over this.
Feng Jiajun said: "Although we don't have much water, we can't save His Highness and Miss Gu no matter how much we save. This place is only two days away from the oasis. If there is no water by then, we will just work harder to fetch water."
"This is not a water problem." The secret guard said very profoundly.
"It's not a water problem, then what is the problem?" Feng Jiajun was very honest and asked if he didn't understand.
The secret guard had a serious look on his face and did not answer Feng Jiajun's words. He only said: "Don't worry about it. Just do as I say."
"Your Highness asked, who is responsible?" Feng Jiajun didn't want to take the blame.
Everyone has interacted with each other before, and they know very well how dark and cunning these five secret guards of His Highness Qin are.
"Don't worry, if anything happens, the five of us will shoulder the same responsibility." Of course, the benefits are shared by the five of them. As for the ones who do the hard work?
It must be the Feng Family Army.
"Okay, we believe you for once." With one less room to clean and someone to bear the consequences, the Feng family army stopped arguing.
When Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng came back, the room had been tidied up. Qin Jiyan wouldn't care about the fact that there was only one room, and of course he wouldn't bother.
However, the people of the Feng Family Army were frightened by the secret guards along the way. As soon as Qin Jiyan came back, he immediately reported to him: "Your Highness, the secret guards informed us that we only need to clean one room and the other one."
No need to clean, don’t you think?”
What to look at?
Qin Jiyan glanced at Gu Qiancheng beside him, and saw that she was not displeased, but had a joking look on her face, so he didn't lose his temper, and just waved his hand to signal the Feng family's army to go down.
"It wasn't my order." Qin Jiyan quickly explained.
We just talked about having a baby not long ago, and now we are only cleaning up a room. This thought... doesn't need to be mentioned at all.
"Really?" Gu Qiancheng said these words and turned back to his room, not forgetting to lock the door at the same time.
His Highness Qin stood outside the door, looked at the closed door, turned around silently, "An Yi, come here!" The secret guard was too idle, so he turned his attention to him.
"Your Highness," An Yi said with a blank face, not knowing anything.
Cleaning up the room was done by several others behind An Yi's back, but...
An Yi is the eldest, so I don't know if we can share the blessings together, but he is destined to share the difficulties with his brothers.
"I see that you are very idle."
It was a narration, not a rhetorical question, so even if he was so busy that he almost cried, An Yi didn't dare to say no, so he could only lower his head and remain silent.
Are you free? He hasn't had a good rest since he stepped into the desert. Is he really very free?
"Since I'm very free, I will leave an important matter to you." Qin Jiyan ignored An Yi's bitter face and continued: "Ye City was originally the imperial capital of the country of Yi. The country of Yi is rich in gold beads.
Follow your men and search around, I want to know where the hidden pearls of the country of Yi are."
"Your Majesty, Your Highness..." This is an abandoned city, how can there be any golden beads? And how can we find such a big place? People from the Northern Qi Dynasty have been operating here for decades, but there is no news of any golden beads.
Where did Your Highness get the gossip? Is it accurate? Will your work be in vain?
An Yi didn't dare to ask, but Qin Jiyan still ignored it and continued to give instructions: "Ye City and its two adjacent cities have gold mines. I originally wanted the Feng Family Army to search for them, but now I see you are so idle.
, then go ahead."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Highness..." An's face turned pale and his lips were trembling.
It's easy to find gold beads, but what's the point of finding gold mines?
To find gold, you have to dig everywhere. How can the five of them dig it?
No, how long and how long will it last?
"What? Dissatisfied?" Qin Jiyan snorted coldly, a stern look flashed in his eyes.
No matter how dissatisfied An Yi was, he could only swallow it down at this time and shook his head: "No, no, I don't dare."
"It's okay if you don't dare. Go and do things." His Highness Qin waved his hand, not only An Yi but also everyone around him was dismissed one by one.
He turned around and knocked on Gu Qiancheng's door, "Qiancheng, open the door." Please stop losing your temper. It's very embarrassing for the grand grandson to be locked out.
Before His Highness Qin could wait for too long, the door opened with a creak. Gu Qiancheng was very measured and at least would not make Qin Jiyan look bad in front of others. Regardless of whether there was anyone outside, Gu Qiancheng explained apologetically: "
Your Highness has been kept waiting for a long time, I have already changed my clothes."
Gu Qiancheng did change his clothes.
There was no luxury to take a bath in the desert, so the most you could do was wipe it with water, and Gu Qiancheng just happened to clean it up.
"I, too, will go change my clothes." Qin Jiyan knew that he was being tricked, but...
He could only admit it!
Who allowed him to have five secret guards who were dedicated to trapping his master? It was simply too irritating.
There were no outsiders in Yecheng, and the little ferret had appeared before. Gu Qiancheng no longer hid, and was walking around with the little ferret in his arms. Behind him...
The guide who had been following Gu Qiancheng all the way followed closely. His face was not as honest as usual, and his eyes were shining brightly.
"Squeak..." The little ferret was very sensitive. As soon as he found someone following him on the street, he yelled flatteringly and excitedly.
It is going to make a great contribution, and it is going to have a big meal!
The little ferret's fat body was twisting more and more.
"Quiet, stop making trouble." Gu Qiancheng pinched the little ferret's ears. The little ferret softened and immediately became quiet.
Annoying master, my ears are my most sensitive area.
The little ferret looked at Gu Qiancheng sadly, but Gu Qiancheng just pretended not to see it and continued walking forward.
Even if Gu Qiancheng didn't know what was going on before, he knows now, but...
She didn't want to alert the enemy yet.
His Highness Qin had previously said that the guide was not trustworthy, and sent people to keep an eye on him all the way, but found nothing unusual. The guide followed her now, probably because he thought she was easy to bully, and he would not be discovered by following her.
I really don’t know who the guide is, so stupid.
If she dares to search alone, she must be relying on someone...
