Genius Demon Empress

Madam and a few guests please go back, Fontaine County is unable to entertain foreigners now, Nan Muyu snorted coldly, not even looking at Yue Jinghua and the others.

Presumptuous, Nan Muyu, as the former deputy captain of the county guard, you are a soldier of the Duke's mansion. How dare you chase away the guests when you see your wife and young masters? Hong Ling couldn't get used to this person's rudeness, and rushed forward Go, question the middle-aged man.

The king's salary is ordered by the king. Now I am just a mountain hunter. A few years ago, I took the salary of the noble mansion. Naturally, I have to obey the orders of the duke mansion. Now I don't pay the food, and my parents, wife and children are also attacking the beast. In the midst of a disaster, with the sky as the father and the earth as the mother, how can there be any presumptuousness, Nan Muyu glared angrily, like a tiger in the mountains, making people shudder.

Nanzi, don't talk like that. Since the Duchess is here, she is naturally welcome. It's just a few distinguished guests. Fontaine County is under internal and external pressure. If you don't greet well, please forgive me, Madam and everyone, walked out of the crowd. An old man with a rickety back is the head of the village in this area.

The lord's mansion in Fontaine County had long been crushed by an avalanche, and everyone had nowhere to stay, so they could only bring the carriage in and temporarily serve as a resting place.

On the day they settled down, everyone found that except for the village head and Erwang, most people in the village were hostile to them, and the former commander of the county guard named Nan Muyu was the most obvious.

When the village chief came over with a few bags of corn, Teng Wu chatted with him.

Don't blame Nanzi, he is also a hard-working person. A while ago, Manager Hong signed a poll tax agreement with Bailu County for the safety of Fontaine County. His parents, wife and children were arrested by Bailu County at that time. Until now, it is still unknown, the village chief sighed, explaining Nan Muyu's bad attitude, and put down the few bags of corn.

In the village, there are not a few people who have suffered like Nan Muyu. They all resent that the people in the Duke's Mansion have signed a poll tax agreement with others, so they hate Yue Jinghua and others like this.

In order to avoid the poll tax in Bailu County, the people of Fontaine County either migrated or hid in the mountains and forests. Today, there are only more than a thousand people living in the village, of which there are only a few dozen young and middle-aged people. Nan Muyu stayed because she saw that the old, weak, widowed and widowed in the village had no one to look after them.

This year's winter came early and lasted for a long time. When the winter is over, most of the village will starve to death and freeze to death.

What's the matter with the profound formation at the entrance of the village? It looks like a defensive formation to me? And where is the red steward? After Yue Jinghua entered the village, he found the profound formation at the entrance of the village. The structure of the profound formation should be a mid-level profound formation, and it is also a comprehensive profound formation, which can not only play a defensive role, but also resist the cold air.

Officer Hong is a good man. He was the one who set up the profound formation. He has been at odds with the people in the village. Half a month ago, the mountain was covered by heavy snow, and there was really no food left in the village. He took a few people down the mountain to Bailu The county has gone to borrow food. It has been half a month, and there has been no news. Everyone in the village said that he couldn't bear the hardship and went back to the imperial capital. The village chief lowered his voice, Hong Ling was listening, gritted his teeth, Silently, he took the corn to the side and lit a fire to cook.

Everyone set off from the Kingdom of Shang, and when they arrived in Fontaine County, the dry food and fresh water had long been used up. Hongling took over the corn and was about to wash the rice for cooking. Looking at the few shriveled grain bags, it was not difficult to guess. However, there is very little food in Fontaine County.

Seeing that Hongling had taken well water and was about to wash it, Erwang came out like a puppy, Sister Ling, that's not how rice is washed.

Erwang quickly picked up a bucket, soaked all the water in the rice bag, and didn't wash it, just watched eagerly.

After a while, a dense field of small insects floated out, and after cleaning all the insects, Er Wang began to wash the rice.

Yunluo, who was watching from the side, looked like a ghost, I still eat this kind of rice, but I won't eat it, and I won't eat it even if I'm starving to death.

Er Wang was stunned, and looked at the corn in his hand. This was all the corn in Fontaine County, and they couldn't even eat this kind of corn on weekdays.

Yunluo, put away your miss temper, Yue Jinghua frowned.

Yunluo stomped her feet, didn't respond, and climbed into the carriage directly, ignoring everyone.

Everyone settle down for tonight. Tomorrow, Hong Yao and Hong Ling will drive down the mountain to buy rice and clothes in Bailu County. Mother, you and Yuechen will take a walk in the village to learn more about the situation in the county. Teng Wu and Salman, accompany me to walk around the periphery of Fontaine County, I want to see the deployment of this area.

Yue Jinghua is not picky, she doesn't have high requirements for food, she only needs to satisfy her hunger.

There was nothing to do all night, when they got up in the morning, everyone went down the mountain to do their errands according to Yue Jinghua's arrangement.

After a whole day, Hongling and Hongyao brought a cartful of rice grains and cotton clothes up the mountain, and distributed them to the villagers. In addition, during the day, Lierou and Yuechen wandered around the village, and the villagers treated them a little better. Only Nan Muyu still had a hostile expression on his face, and he was unwilling to come to receive winter clothes and rice grains.

The red medicine also has a long-term mind. When she was purchasing it in Bailu County, she even inquired about it, but there was no news from the group of people who sent it back. It seems that Viscount Moore had no intention of sending troops to attack Fontaine County again.

Don't worry, I'm still a viscount, so I must be cautious when doing things. I'm afraid I've already sent people to Owawa to find out the news. As long as I find out that my eldest brother is still in the capital, he will definitely send people to make trouble, Yue Jinghua was not in a hurry. Don't wait, the Danxuan card in her hand is not enough to repay the debt of the Duke's mansion, but it is more than enough to rebuild a village with thousands of people.

She has already inquired that in another month, the snow line on the ridge will melt, and the village can be rebuilt by then.

Reconstruction is not difficult. The problem is how to resist the attack of the mysterious beasts in the mountains. I heard from the villagers that groups of mysterious beasts will appear here from time to time. Even if the village is built, another city wall that can resist the mysterious beasts must be built. This is what Yue Jinghua is really worried about.

When I visited Qihu City, a frontier fortress of the empire, I saw the mysterious stone craftsmanship somewhere. It is to engrave eternal profound formations on every piece of city wall stone. It has a certain defensive effect, Teng Wu pondered, and made a suggestion.

The production cost of Xuanshi is very high. The base stone is a long rock, and the rock is made into Xuanshi. It needs at least an intermediate-level formation master to make it. It is time-consuming and labor-intensive. We do not have the manpower and material resources, Yue Jinghua immediately denied. his scheme.

Either the reorganization of the county guards, day and night patrols can also play a deterrent effect, but no one is willing to station in Fontaine County now, Hong Ling muttered.

When everyone was hesitating, Lierou walked in with a scorched face, Have any of you seen Miss Yun and Miss Ye? They are gone.
