Zhang Siwang shook his head, "I felt someone following us, so I walked around the town a few more times. Those two people didn't seem to be familiar with our Qingshui County. When we left the city, they stopped following us."

Zhu Qiuqi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

"In that case, brother, please clean up first and eat here today. Bring your parents with you. Siyuan said yesterday that he had something to tell you."

Zhang Siwang nodded and then took Zhou Meixue back.

When Zhang Siyuan and the others came back again, Zhu Qiuqi told Zhang Siwang and the others what happened to them today.

Pei Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, "If you can find people from Qingshui County, I'm afraid they are from the capital. If you can also target a few children, I'm afraid they have already inquired about it."

"Damn it, it's not that woman Rong Jiao again, is it?"

Pei Yuan now gnashed his teeth in hatred towards Rong Jiao. He never imagined that Rong Jiao would dare to come in front of him.

"Brother, I will go to the county in person. I want to see who the vicious woman sent this time!"

Zhang Siyuan nodded, it was indeed inconvenient for him now, and he was indeed relieved to have Pei Yuan go there in person.

"If you can't get any information, go to the county government office to find the county magistrate."

Xuanyuan Ke also knew that the current magistrate of Qingshui County came from the Mu family in the capital, a rare noble family.

Pei Yuan nodded, and Zhu Qiuqi went to the pharmacy and gave instructions to have the medicine packed in boxes tomorrow and asked Pei Yuan to deliver it to Jishi Hall.

When the second elder of the Zhang family and the eldest family came, Zhu Qiuqi asked Zhang Si to look at Zhang Siyuan.

Since he wanted to find out who was following them, Zhang Siwang had to tell Pei Yuan the truth about yesterday's situation.

When the old lady of the Zhang family entered the kitchen, she couldn't help but ask: "Qiu Qi, I heard from Mei Xue that someone is watching some children again? This..."

Knowing that the old lady was worried, Zhu Qiuqi patted her hand and comforted her: "Don't worry, Mom. Pei Yuanming will go to the capital tomorrow and he will definitely find out the matter."

The old lady of the Zhang family not only breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.

"That's good. I'm worried that the flower girl will show up boldly again."

During the meal, Zhu Qiuqi told everyone that Zhang Siyuan's leg injury had almost recovered, and told the old lady and the old man that Zhang Siyuan would be leaving for the capital in no time.

Because the Zhang family ate together, Xuanyuan Ke sat with Rong Xiuyun, Zhang Siyuan, Pei Yuan, and Wulu.

In this way, the Zhang family is much less stressed when eating.

Now that she heard Zhu Qiuqi's words, the old lady of the Zhang family couldn't help but blush.

"Okay, it's a good thing that your leg injury is getting better. I'm going to the capital. Your father and I are at home, as well as your eldest brother and sister-in-law. We will keep a close eye on you."

Zhang Siwang also said: "Don't worry, Qiu Qi, I will come to the yard here every day and won't let thieves in."

Zhu Qiuqi nodded, "Thank you very much to my parents over there, and to my elder brother and sister-in-law."

Zhang Siwang waved his hand, "My family doesn't want to say that."

After sending the second elder and the first house back, Xuanyuan Ke looked at Rong Xiuyun.

"Xiu Yun, what did Prince Rong say in this letter?"

Rong Xiuyun handed a letter in her arms to Xuanyuan Ke, "Your Highness, this is one of the letters my father gave me."

"My father has no rebellious intentions, please give His Highness peace of mind."

After seeing Prince Rong's handwriting, Xuanyuan Ke finally let go of his worries.

Nowadays, the border of Dazhou is in chaos. Zhang Siyuan has just recovered from his leg injury and cannot go to the border immediately.

If something happens to South Vietnam at this time, I am afraid Da Zhou will really be unable to deal with it.

This letter from Prince Rong gave them reassurance.

"Haha, okay. I know that Prince Rong is not comparable to those rats!"

Zhang Siyuan and Pei Yuan also felt a little relieved.

"As for the Li family, don't worry. I have informed my father about this matter. This time the Fanbang matter has been resolved, and my father will handle the matter personally."

"Prince Rong was in such a hurry to go back that year that my father didn't even know about what happened in Baiyue, and he even presumed to forgive him."

Baiyue was already a vassal state of Zhou Dynasty. It was a pity that the emperor did not pay attention to Baiyue's situation when he raised troops.

Rong Xiuyun was also shocked when she heard Xuanyuan Ke's apology.

"Your Highness cannot do this. My father has never blamed His Highness or His Majesty."

Seeing Rong Xiuyun's frightened expression, Xuanyuan Ke also sighed.

"It is indeed my father who feels sorry for Prince Rong, and it is true that this matter is not something we can interfere with after digging up the quilt. When Prince Rong comes to Dazhou in the future, let them talk about it themselves."

Zhu Qiuqi felt relieved after hearing this.

She quite admired Rong Xiuyun. It was because of the Western medical skills she had learned from Zeng Jin and the systematic help that she was able to achieve her current medical skills.

But Rong Xiuyun is different. He is learning the medical skills of this land.

Moreover, he is also one of the best, so Rong Jiao is naturally willing to talk to him more.

If Prince Rong really has second thoughts, Rong Xiuyun may not be able to stay in Dazhou, and there will be no need to continue their business.

Now it seems that everything is going in a good direction.

Zhu Qiuqi secretly planned to tell Rong Xiuyun about the planting of potatoes, sweet potatoes and pumpkins.

No matter what, it would make sense for her to stay in this time and space so that the people would not have to be naked and hungry.

……

"General Liu, what's wrong, those barbarians downstairs are attacking the city again!"

Since Vice General Liu arrived at the border, the situation can be said to have eased.

What's more, Xuanyuan Ke had cement and workers transported by water from Qingshui County. These people were busy day and night, and finally made the border wall stronger.

At first, Lieutenant General Liu was worried about whether the cement could withstand the siege of the barbarians, but after trying it a few times, he had great trust in the cement.

Even those in the army who used double hammers as weapons only left a shallow white mark on the cement wall after they smashed it.

Even Vice General Liu himself tried it himself and became more confident about the cement after that.

Before, he was worried that he would not have enough troops. He had to protect the people of this city and block the way of the foreigners. He was afraid that he would not be able to withstand such an impact.

But after seeing the hardness of the cement, Vice General Liu's worries dissipated a lot.

When someone reported that Fan Bang people were attacking the city, Lieutenant General Liu didn't take it seriously.

"If you attack the city, attack the city. I have asked people to reinforce the cement wall again. No matter how much brute force those barbarians have, I am afraid they will not be able to break through the wall."

The barbarians were able to securely grasp the gaps in the bricks and tiles of the previous city wall with iron hooks and climb up from the city wall.
