On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Governor Cao quickly bowed.

"Princess, what are you talking about? Just tell me what you want me to do. I will do my best."

"Is there any record about Taoist Priest Xuanqing in the government archives? If so, I would like to borrow it to read."

The archives contain a lot of information about the local area, including former officials, various histories, some of which are unofficial histories, some celebrities who have been here, important events, etc., which are generally recorded.

For someone like Taoist Master Xuanqing, who is so legendary and has made such significant contributions, there should be records.

Governor Cao thought for a moment and said, "It should be, but it's been a while, I have to check it to be sure."

"I'll send someone to check it out right now, Master, come and check it out!"

The lawyer has been very busy lately and has lost weight. Upon hearing the news, he immediately went to look for information.

Yan Ruyu also saw this and understood why Governor Cao was so busy.

"Lord Cao, I do have an idea."

Governor Cao's eyes lit up: "Please give me your instructions, my lady. I would be delighted to have you do so."

"The number of yamen runners is limited, and the number of staff cannot be reduced for three to five months. It is not a good idea for everyone to keep holding on. Sooner or later, they will be unable to hold on, so this is not a long-term solution."

"You can select some people from the people to help, and give them a blue garment or a blue patch."

"In short, they are distinguished from the yamen runners and ordinary people, and they are asked to assist, but their work is not in vain and they can be paid."

Governor Cao suddenly realized.

"This is a good idea. We can select people from the common people. Whether it's for face or for wages, they will definitely work hard. They also know West City very well, so they can get twice the result with half the effort."

"Those who are not selected will behave well and strive to be selected in the next batch. Besides, even if someone wants to cause trouble, it will be embarrassing if the one in charge is one of their own family members."

Yan Ruyu nodded: "Your Excellency is wise, that's exactly what you meant."

"I am not smart, I rely on you, Princess."

Governor Cao bowed deeply.

"Also, there is the issue of ground collapse. Lord Cao can ask for help from Li Chengshi. He has many people under his command and works quickly. He will definitely help."

"Yes, how could I have forgotten about him." Governor Cao slapped his forehead, "He has many soldiers and generals under his command, so he is not short of manpower."

As soon as he finished speaking, a yamen runner outside the door came to report: "Sir, Deputy Shi is here."

Governor Cao was startled and said quickly, "Please come in."

Although Deputy General Shi was of lower rank than him, Governor Cao still admired him for his character.

Deputy General Shi entered the front hall and saw Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe there. Without saying a word, he stepped forward and knelt down to pay his respects.

Huo Changhe wanted to help him, but he insisted on bowing his head.

"My Lord, Princess, please let me kowtow. Otherwise, I don't know how to express my gratitude."

After he finished bowing, he stood up.

"This time, the prince and princess, as well as Lord Cao, all helped me. I was confused at the time and was overwhelmed by sadness. After I went back to deal with the matter, I thought about it and felt that I had to come and thank them in person."

He originally wanted to come to the government office first and then go to the Prince of Zhennan's Palace, but ended up being here.

Governor Cao patted him on the shoulder and said, "You're welcome. After this great disaster, I hope you will get better and better in the future. Don't hurt yourself in sadness."

Governor Cao also knew that what he said was easy, but he still had to persuade those who needed to be persuaded.

Deputy General Shi nodded: "Thank you, sir. I understand."

"If you know how I can help you, just tell me."

Governor Cao was overjoyed: "Isn't this a coincidence? I was just about to borrow someone from Li Chengshi, and you happened to come."

Deputy General Shi said, "I have also asked for leave from Envoy Li. It's just right. I will report to Envoy Li and help you."

He could be busy and have something to rely on. At least he didn't have to worry at home every day, feeling haggard and unable to relieve his sorrow.

With his help, Yan Ruyu felt relieved and explained the details to him. Deputy General Shi immediately took his men and tools and set off to do the job.

There are a lot of people coming and going in that place, so it needs to be repaired quickly to avoid anyone getting hurt.

The matter was arranged properly, and the lawyer also found the information. Surprisingly, it really existed.

Although it was not much, it was better than nothing, so Yan Ruyu borrowed the file.

After leaving the yamen, Yan Ruyu hurried back to look at the information carefully.

Following her suggestion, Governor Cao quickly wrote another notice, had his men make several copies, affixed the imperial seal on it, and went out to post it.

When the common people heard that they were going to choose assistants from among them to help the yamen runners, and also pay them wages and give them blue armbands, this was really a rare thing that had never been heard of before.

Not to mention paying money, even if they weren't paid, they would still be happy to sign up. This is cooperation with the government. Although it is only temporary, they are still considered half-public officials, which is a matter of honor for the family!

At one time, a lot of people signed up and they were all very enthusiastic.

The worry in Governor Cao's heart was immediately relieved by more than half.

When it was dark and the lights were on in the city, at the moment when the city gates were finally closed, the people sent by Song Ping, along with the shopkeeper's son and his family of three, also returned to the city.

Take them all the way to the teahouse.

When the shopkeeper saw that all three of them had returned safe and sound, he was so grateful that he knelt down on the spot.

"You don't have to do this. We are just following orders. Take a good rest. The child has been busy all day and must be tired."

The shopkeeper wanted to give them some food and drink, but they said they didn't want anything. They didn't even drink a sip of tea and just left.

The shopkeeper couldn't help wiping away tears, and looking at his little granddaughter, he was so scared.

It was not until this point that the daughter-in-law understood what was going on and why her husband was pursuing her.

After hearing the whole story, I was also scared.

"The princess is truly our family's great benefactor. We must never forget her at any time in the future."

The shopkeeper held his granddaughter and warned her, "Yaya, remember, you must kowtow to the princess when you see her in the future. If it weren't for her, you would never see your parents and grandparents again. Do you understand?"

The little girl nodded seriously. She didn't quite understand what was said, but she remembered to listen to her father and grandfather.

Yan Ruyu read the information for a long time, but there were some things she couldn't figure out. Seeing that she had been staying in the house, Huo Changhe took her out for a walk on the street.

"Take a closer look. Once this place is demolished later, all of it will be gone."

Huo Changhe sighed softly: "The new city is certainly exciting, but... the old city also has the flavor of the old city."

Yan Ruyu understood his sadness and chuckled, "Don't worry, Princess. Not all old things need to be demolished. Some iconic buildings are also treasures and will not be demolished easily. On the contrary, they need to be well preserved."

Huo Changhe was overjoyed: "Yu'er, are you serious?"

"Of course. Otherwise, do you think I am the kind of person who will just demolish things without caring about anything else?"

Yan Ruyu laughed angrily.

"No, of course not. Yu'er is the most special one. She can think of everything."

As they were talking, they arrived near the teahouse.

When the owner of the teahouse heard the news, he hurried out to greet them.
