Chapter 512: Great News

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

MO Ruyue was not in the mood to care about them. She only taught them medical skills every day. Right now, she was most concerned about opening the mountain.

She wondered how the preparations were going.

After dinner, she strolled toward the foot of the mountain on the village road.

Granny Rong went to teach them the rules, and Granny Yan automatically went to MO Ruyue’s side.

Granny Yan was slightly better off with MO Ruyue. At least Granny Yan was not as long-winded as Granny Rong. “Princess, do you want to take a carriage?

“Or a palanquin?

Chun Hua did not know where MO Ruyue was going, so she probed.

“No need. I’ll just walk more to digest my food.”

“If you have something to do, go ahead. You don’t have to follow.”

However, none of these people listened to MO Ruyue. They still braced themselves and followed.

Their duty was to serve MO Ruyue and ensure her safety.

MO Ruyue was too lazy to care about him.

Before they left the village, they were stopped by Aunt Chen.

“Where did Aunt Chen come from?

“Aiya, princess, I was just about to look for you.”

It’s those few people in luxurious clothes who said they were here to measure the land and mountains. I don’t think they’re measuring at all. Why are they digging and knocking at the foot of the mountain with shovels and pickaxes?

“Don’t tell me you’re up to something?”

MO Ruyue stared at Aunt Chen with her eyes wide open. She never thought that

Aunt Chen would be the first to notice that something was wrong with those people.

“It’s fine, it’s fine. They’re looking for something useful.”

MO Ruyue vaguely explained to Aunt Chen. She couldn’t say it now, nor could she not.

When Aunt Chen heard that MO Ruyue knew that she was worrying for nothing, she went home with a peace of mind.

However, those people knocked from morning to night every day. If it wasn’t this mountain, they would knock and dig. Sometimes, it was late at night, but they would still knock and dig with lanterns. After digging for three to four days, all the nearby villages finally knew.

The old village chief came to look for MO Ruyue.

“That princess, I was wondering what those people were digging quietly for.”

“Is this really okay?”

The old village chief had the same thoughts as Aunt Chen. The entire Lianshan County belonged to MO Ruyue now. If these people were to cause trouble on

MO Ruyue’s territory, they would be causing trouble on the head of the dragon.

The old village chief was extremely worried, so he decided to ask.

MO Ruyue couldn’t bear to see the old Village Chief so anxious.

“Uncle, does everyone know now?

“Exactly!’

Those people had been knocking and digging since the first day they came. They had already run through the nearby mountains. It was difficult for them not to know!

“Not only did our village know, but the neighboring villages also knew.”

The old village chief also knew that a few people from other villages were also digging blindly to see if there was anything.

The village chief had never told MO Ruyue about these things before. Now, as long as MO Ruyue showed any dissatisfaction, he would definitely gather the villagers to chase those people away.

“Uncle, don’t be anxious. Those people will come to look for me later. At that time, we’ll listen to what they’re up to.”

Why don’t you have lunch at my place? They might come in a while, so I don’t have to ask someone to call you again.

“Oh right, I still have something to talk to you about.”

The old village chief had originally said that he wanted to go home, but when he heard that she still had something to discuss with him, he sat down again.

Jiayao was still busy in the kitchen with a few servant girls. MO Ruyue asked the servant girls to bring some refreshments over first.

“If you need anything from me, just say it. Don’t be polite with me.”

The old village chief was still an impatient person. Although he was sometimes a little slow when he spoke, he was an impatient person in his heart.

“Uncle, you know that Gu Ying wants to open a civil and military college. He can be a teacher in the martial arts college, but he has to recruit a teacher in the literature college.”

“I remember that there’s a big brother in Uncle’s family who teaches private schools in town. I just thought that we might as well invite our family members instead of outsiders. If Big Brother can come back, it’ll be more convenient for you and Aunt in the future, right?”

The old village chief was getting older, although his body was still quite strong and he was usually busy.

However, MO Ruyue had seen it several times. The old village chief was especially envious of other families that had a complete family.

His son was out there to make a living, but now that there was a school in the village, if he was willing to come back, wouldn’t the family be reunited? The old village chief and his wife would definitely be happy.

The old village chiefs eyes lit up. He knew what MO Ruyue meant.

“This, this, this, that’s great. But I have to ask him if he can come back. You know, he’s been there for so many years.”

The old village chief was so excited that he was rubbing his hands together.

MO Ruyue smiled. “I know. That’s why I thought of asking Uncle first. You should ask Big Brother first. It would be best if he’s willing to come back.”

This was great news for the old village chief. He reckoned that his son would be very willing.

Ren Gu Ying was ranked second. The academy opened by the second place was not much better than the school opened by the town.

In the past two years, the village had developed much better than before. Now that there was a princess in the village, it would definitely be better in the future. Her son would definitely be willing to come back.

Thinking of this, the old village chief wanted to go to town to look for his son immediately. However, when he thought about the people who were digging mountains and knocking stones coming later and wondering what they were here for, he could not leave.

After freeloading a meal cooked by the imperial chef at MO Ruyue’s place, the village chief’s appetite had increased by a lot.

He was a little worried. If he went home and ate those bland and tasteless things, how could he swallow them?

After the meal, the bowls and chopsticks were removed. After drinking half a cup of tea, the six people arrived.

The six of them looked to be in their thirties or forties, and they looked even more imposing than the landowners and squires.

“I, Lu Shen, pay my respects to the Princess.”

Lu Shen was from the Ministry of Works, and the other five were his subordinates.

The six of them greeted MO Ruyue as soon as they saw her. MO Ruyue asked them to stand up and even gave them a seat.

“This is our West River Village Chief.”

“I heard that you guys were knocking on the mountains nearby. Are you looking for something?”

“Aren’t you here to measure the land for me?

MO Ruyue asked a few questions before taking a sip of water from her cup. She looked at the six people and gestured for them to continue her words.

Lu Shen was stunned when he heard MO Ruyue’s question. Didn’t Princess Ming Yue order them to do this?

NO!

It was County Magistrate Wu who told him. Could it be that County Magistrate Wu tricked him?!

Thinking about it, they really did not offend County Magistrate Wu, but Princess Ming Yue acted as if she did not know..

He mustered his courage and looked at Princess Ming Yue carefully.

Sigh? Was she winking at him?

MO Ruyue glanced at the old village chief and gave him a meaningful glance.

Lu Shen’s eyes confirmed and he immediately understood that he was putting on an act for the old village chief.

“Princess Ming Yue, its like this. When we were surveying the land, we found a

type of stone at the foot of a mountain that contained gold.

Therefore, the reason why we came here this time was mainly to report this matter to the princess.”

MO Ruyue’s eyes widened in disbelief. She placed the teacup on the table.

“Is that so?

“Did you report it?”

“I can’t hide this matter.. If I hide it, I’ll be harmed!”
