Hubby, Your Fox Fairy Wants Everything

Chapter 165 Little Help Brought Much Return

Xu Linghe was shocked by the chip, and he had never heard of the technology used in the scene, where grains were in full and heavy clusters.

If he could use the technology, the refugees in Jin City would be saved.

“The chip is very interesting... but it is just an illusion...” Xu Linghe could not help but sigh. Wuyou felt satisfied inwardly and thought that Yan Wu was really a treasure vault. The two came out of the stable to the palace gate. Zhan Ming looked around and came to pay a salute to Xu Linghe immediately.

“Your Majesty, I have something to report...” Zhan Ming said. Wuyou did not care about the issues in the Jin City, only wishing to hide behind her husband.

“My husband, you may do your own work.” Wuyou yawned deliberately. Zhan Ming was used to seeing lady-like behaviors, so it was the first time for him to a woman who had no regard for etiquette. Zhan Ming thought Madam Xu was really different. However, Wuyou did not care about it at all. It was Fox’s nature that they would not restrained by etiquette. Even though she was lodging in a moral’s body, she still remained her nature.

“Escort Madam to Jingyang Palace.” Because of several-day fatigue, Xu Linghe knew that the woman was really tired. Wuyou followed the little servant to the Jingyang Palace.

“Madam, you looked quite unfamiliar. You don’t always stay in the palace, do you?” The little palace servant had planned to flatter Wuyou, but his words sounded ironic to Wuyou. And she thought, “What do you mean ‘unfamiliar’? So do you mean you know some familiar persons?” Noticing the Madam looked unhappy, the little palace servant shut up immediately and thought that he did look for trouble himself. The Jin City had been built for only one year, and the buildings were all magnificent with exquisite skills. The spiritual beasts carved on the buildings were vivid and lifelike. Wuyou wondered whether her husband got used to living in such a luxury place. Seeing Mrs. Xu stroke the carved flowers, the little servant looked at Wuyou with great contempt and considered she was a rustic. With the thought, the little servant put on airs and straightened himself up. However, could the little servant remain calm if he knew that the woman was the one who led the troops to capture the ten cities?

“Madam, Jingyang Palace is here...” As the little palace servant found it impossible to get any benefit and just wanted to leave there as soon as possible. However, Wuyou did not mind it, and the Jingyang Palace was just in front. The little palace servant walked as he fished his pockets, thinking that what a bad luck he had today and got nothing out today. He had thought that he would meet a sophisticated master, but out of his expectation, the master was just a rustic woman, totally unaware of the ways of the world. The little palace servant sighed in disappointment, and could not vent his anger. At the same time, a black figure kept watching the little servant in the corner. Suddenly, taels of silver fell from the sky. Seeing a big silver ingot rolling into the flowers, the little palace servant ran at it, pressed the ingot with his hands, and took a bit of it. He was feverish to see the clear tooth print on it and believed that he was awarded by the Heaven. He wrapped it tightly and put it into the arms. Taking a few more steps, he found a bigger silver ingot.

“Put down the silver ingot.” A voice rang when the little palace servant bent to pick the silver ingot. A chill sprang up from his back. A sharp saber was against the little palace servant’s back.

“Take me to your Majesty...”

“Imperial Study.”

Lin Feiyang pinched his neck, and the little palace servant was too scared to utter words coherently. It was ghastly dark around. The little palace servant deeply regretted being so greedy for money that even he would die for his greed. Lin Feiyang wanted nothing but to leave the Jin City. Qi army was severely defeated, so he was worried about his elder brother’s situation. Then, when the guard was dozing, Lin Feiyang sneaked out of the jail. And he had to get the Majesty’s handwritten order before leaving there.

“The Majesty is in the Imperial Study...” The little palace servant took out a saber and pricked toward Lin Feiyang unexpectedly, as he thought the stranger dared to threaten him. Lin Feiyang dodged the stab and struck out. The little palace servant screamed with scare. Wuyou returned when hearing the shout. The little palace servant lay on the ground, unconscious. Wuyou followed the stranger’s aura to the door of the front yard and only found a black figure flying to the imperial study. She flew to the roof as well. In the imperial study, the black figure stopped. Wuyou hid in a corner and watched him. Lin Feiyou unveiled a tile of the imperial study where the influential and powerful figures of the Jin City were all present.

“The captured food... is enough for several wars...” Wars could help them get promoted and become rich, so martial generals preferred the battlefield. However, the person in the main seat did not say a word, because he called all the people there not for wars, and he was not thirsty for wars. The priority currently was to solve the problem of food and clothing.

“Tomorrow, we will distribute the food in the East Market...” The martial generals were unhappy at the news, because soldiers traded their lives for the food. How could the food be distributed so easily to the poor?

“In my opinion, we should annihilate the Qi Kingdom first.”

“Yes. The Qi Commander in Chief killed my younger brother. I will take revenge for him.” The martial general wiped the tears on the corner of his eyes, because his younger brother was just 18 years old. On the roof, Lin Feiyang had an idea that if he burned out all the food, what they could do then. It should all be blamed on these guys trying to kill his elder brother. Lin Feiyang ran in the direction of the stable, a nearest place to the food. Wuyou followed the black figure to the stable.

“I have something to report...”

“Commander, please.”

“The scout reported that someone incited the refugees to make trouble. Many refugees in some states and counties go up against the local officials. Thousands of people have been injured or died of it.”

The martial general became quiet after hearing the news, because it was a big event. If handled improperly, it would subvert the regime.

“Send the troops to suppress them.” Hearing the suggestion, Xu Linghe looked darker and thought, “These people know well that the food is the root to solve the problem. But now they are still unwilling to distribute the food. All of them just care about being promoted and wealthy, completely ignoring the common people’s livelihood.”

“At noon tomorrow, distribute the food in the East Market...”

Before the voice faded away, martial generals could not restrain their anger. If the food was given to the refugees, how could they continue to fight without the sufficient support of provisions, as fighting in the battlefield needed the backup?

“Our holy Majesty...” Zhan Ming knelt on the ground. The martial generals did not dare to say one more word and knelt on the ground as well. After all, no one dared to run wild in front of the imperial power.

“Your Majesty, someone burnt the grain storage.” A little palace servant reported, as he rushed in hurriedly.

Xu Linghe could not sit well. How daredevil! It was the food that would save the entire Jin City. The group of people came out of the palace to the East palace. Xu Linghe flew over the crowds to the grain storage. And he saw the woman lifting the food up in the distance. In the flames, the woman was covered with dust. No one had ever expected the 10,000 loads of rice were burnt out by the fire. In order to prevent the fire to spread, Xu Linghe called the dragon beast. Food was washed out and scattered to the ground, and little left. It did make things worse for the Jin City which lacked food, because it was due to distribute food tomorrow in the East market, and the notice had been sent. If there was no food at that time, public outrage would be sparked at that time. Looking at the grain storage burnt by the fire, Xu Linghe fell silent. In the darkness, a man jumped up to a high wall to the east of the city. He was nobody but Yan Bo. It was human’s nature that jealousy beget hatred. Yan Bo wanted nothing but to embarrass Xu Linghe. He wanted to see what Xu Linghe would pull through the difficulty if there was no food tomorrow. A great chaos in the Jin City was a godsend opportunity. And then, Yan Bo would collide with the refugees in some states and counties and would like to see how Xu Linghe could handle the difficulty. Without the food, Xu Linghe was nobody. Yan Bo enjoyed the tea leisurely, as the tea steamed and lingered around his nose. The fire disturbed Xu Linghe’s rhythm, as well as detroyed the poor’s dream. Xu Linghe was deeply troubled and discussed with Zhan Ming immediately to figure out the solution. Yan Shen gave away the food from his family. Although there were several carriages of food, it was still inadequate and useless. Strong tea filled the cup again and again, and Xu Linghe hoped to figure out a sure solution. He could not stop coughing. Standing at the palace gate, Wuyou was worried about her husband, since he had not recovered completely, and he would be worn down by the worsening situation. Wuyou knew she could do something to help her husband. Then, she came out of the palace to the Jingyang Palace.

“Come out. It’s me...” Lin Feiyang showed up unwillingly. The little palace servant could not reconcile himself to the situation. Now Lin Feiyang was considered as the arsonist of the grain storage, so he had no way but to hide. Once discovered, he would be removed of his head without doubt.

“You should pay something back for my saving you.” Knowing Lin Feiyang’s background, Wuyou had no time to linger with him, as the food must be prepared well before dawn.

“What do you want? Just say.”

“I want 10,000 loads of food. Now!”

“Send me out of the city.”

“Deal.”

Wuyou lifted the man to the city gate. Lin Feiyang just wanted to escape the city and thought that things would not under her control as long as he could come out of the city. “What a stupid woman! What 10,000 loads of food? No one will buy it!”

“Don’t play any trick. It won’t pass with me.” Wuyou had a good command of mind-reading technique since childhood. Because the man before was Lin Xiaosa’s younger brother, Wuyou thought they could come to the North Desert first. Then, she lifted up the man to the North Desert. Lin Feiyang did believe the saying that “You have to be humble when you’re trapped in an inferior situation.” The two passed through the desert, and it did not take long for them to arrive at the capital. Wuyou landed off the clouds, carried Lin Feiyang, and flew to the governor’s residence. In North Desert, Lin family had dominant power, and no one dared to look down upon this family there. Wuyou’s purpose was to get the food and return to the Jin City before dawn. Otherwise, the Jin City would fall into a chaos. The king’s words were meant to be taken seriously. Wuyou knew that her husband’s words and deeds represented honesty. Once he failed to fulfill what he had promised, someone with evil intents would stir up trouble immediately. In fact, the fire was just the beginning of the conspiracy.

“Only four hours. If you dare to cheat me...” Wuyou said, as she burned the wall with her spirit power. Smoke sprang up. Lin Feiyang realized what he would end up with if he dared to deceive the woman—being burned to ashes.

“My father is still lying in the bed. I should go to see him.” Lin Feiyang replied. Wuyou felt it improper to turn him down, so she followed him into the inner hall. The luminous pearl lit up the hall as bright as day. The man lying in the bed was at the withering age. Lin Feiyang ran to the old man directly. Wuyou stood in the distance, unwilling to see the sad scene. The old man was lying on his side. When seeing clearly the coming man was the younger son instead of the elder one, the old man could not hide the disappointment in his eyes.

“Father.” Lin Feiyang held the old man’s hands tightly, but he knew that his father always gave the love to the elder brother, Lin Xiaosa, and totally ignored the fact that his father also had a younger son.

“Elder brother is still engaged in his affairs and cannot leave there, so he asked me to come back first...” Upon hearing it, the old man coughed more severely and spat some drops of blood which dyed the quilt red. Wuyou was shocked and realized that the old man was poisoned. She had thought that it was caused by life-and-death law of nature, but unexpectedly, the old man was harmed intentionally.

“The senior man is poisoned.” Wuyou interrupted their conversation, because Wuyou could not just sit by and do nothing to save the old man from death. The bloodstain on the corner of the quilt got blackened. Wuyou was right that the old man was really poisoned.

“Get some clear water.” Wuyou felt the old man’s pulse. After Lin Feiyang came out of the hall, Wuyou spread her spirit power. Then, Herbal Spirits drilled into the old man’s body. The old man was startled first, and then calmed down after understanding what the woman was doing. It turned out that his son took a magic doctor for him. Wuyou activated the essence spirits of Shennong’s Spiritual Herb. These essence spirits ran in the old man’s bloodlines. Active essence spirits hopped and snatched under his skin. The poisons flowing in the blood were wrapped by the essence spirits. When Wuyou injected her spirit power, the essence spirits jumped at the poisons, leaving no place for them to run away. Then, the poisons were annihilated by the Spiritual Herb’s essence spirits. The old man regained some ruddy color on his face.

“Thank you, magic doctor.” His father could walk. “Unbelievably! The woman was so fabulous that she could save the father’s life.” Lin Feiyang was so happy!

“Could you mind lending some food to me?” Since it’s getting late, Wuyou knew that if she could not come back before dawn, something terrible would happen unavoidably. Lin Feiyang’s father did not expect that his savior would ask for food, and was lost for words at that moment. In fact, rice was also insufficient in the North Desert, but meat was abundant.

“Go to the pasture and prepare some cattle and sheep...” The family servant took the order and retreated. Lin Feiyang’s father was a man of real characters, who would return much for any help he got.

“Your Excellency, thank you very much. I will certainly pay it back in the future.” At present, only the food could save the Jin City. Wuyou followed him to the pasture. And Lin Feiyang’s father picked up some fat and large cattle and sheep. Lin Feiyang was surprised by his father generosity, as his father was willing to give the woman 10,000 cattle and sheep.
