After I captured the wrong male lead, I broke off the engagement and married the villain

Nangong Yuan didn't speak for a long time, and the faint blue light on the task panel was flickering.

The system didn't bother her.

Nangong Yuan can be said to be a very good partner.

She is excellent in both work and other aspects.

The system's cooperation with her is mutually beneficial, so it doesn't say much.

After a while, Nangong Yuan came back to his senses: "Thank you, I understand."

[Okay, if the host has anything, remember to call me. ]

Nangong Yuan nodded and agreed.

She closed the task panel and covered her aching forehead.

"I can't go on like this. Being stuck in the same place is not my style."

Nangong Yuan should be a cold and sharp person who does what he wants to do without hesitation.

At that time, she only regarded the strategy mission as a stepping stone to return.

But now I feel sorry for him. This shouldn't be the case.

She knew she was selfish, cold, and even excessive.

But this is... everything she has to bear and accept.

"Cough cough."

Perhaps because she had been worrying too much recently, Nangong Yuan’s illness had not been fully recovered.

But she still practiced as usual, went to Yuehui Pavilion, checked on her secret guards, and inquired about news from various parts of Kyoto.

Nangong Yuan did not allow herself to indulge in anxiety too much.

While doing her own thing, she kept an eye on what was happening in Kyoto.

Recently...the situation in Kyoto seems to have changed.

Although Nangong Yuan was not in the court, she still discovered some differences with her keen intuition.

She asked the secret guards to investigate, and sure enough, they found some clues.

"The court is busy with spring farming recently. After the spring comes, the Ministry of Revenue will distribute grain seeds, but I heard that there is no grain in the warehouse recently."

Nangong Yuan closed the book in front of her and asked, "How could this happen? Did you find anything?"

"The Ministry of Revenue is a mixed bag, and there are many children from aristocratic families in it. There are no clues yet."

Hearing this, Nangong Yuan nodded: "Okay, we still have to keep an eye on it. Tell me immediately if there is any news."

"Yes, ma'am."

After the people left, she pointed to the corner of the table.

"Ministry of Revenue, food, it looks like there will be a bloody storm."

Nangong Yuan was almost used to the daily fighting in the court.

But this is not a good thing, because becoming numb to the situation will make people lose their keen perception.

Many times, they need this ability to avoid danger.

Nangong Yuan put away the things in front of her, changed her clothes and went out.

Liu Qingyue asked her out, still at the old place, Yuehui Pavilion.

But today, she looked a little sad.

"What's going on here?"

Seeing her coming, Liu Qingyue was very happy, but also a little depressed: "Hey, the price of grain has increased a lot. I was planning to buy some, but now it seems there is no way."

"I heard that it was because the Ministry of Revenue had no grain, and the warehouse had no grain, so naturally less was flowing out."

Liu Qingyue sighed: "Many of our people need food, and we originally planned to store some. But now, if God doesn't have eyes, we will all starve."

They are the daughters of officials, so of course they will not go hungry.

But the people below can’t say for sure, so Liu Qingyue has been very troubled recently.

In special times, food is something that cannot be bought even if you have money.

She has been very worried recently, so she asked Nangong Yuan to come out and relax.

"Don't be too anxious. The court will naturally take action."

Liu Qingyue sighed: "They, it's good enough if they don't put the things in their own pockets, why would they care about those worthless civilians?"

After saying that, he took a glass of wine.

"What's wrong with you? You were so excited before, but now you're listless?"

Liu Qingyue shook her head: "I just feel that the people here are really not human beings, and I feel depressed."

She is not a person of this era, so she cannot help feeling sad when she sees the suffering of the people.

"The court will naturally try its best, but many things cannot be solved by just trying their best."

Nangong Yuan gave her a bowl of soup: "Drink less, what if you get drunk?"

"It's okay. It's not that serious."

While drinking and eating snacks, she asked again: "I heard Tao Zhu say that you were sick before, are you okay?"

"It's just a cold, I'm fine now."

Given Nangong Yuan's physical condition, the situation is certainly not too serious.

It’s just that I was thinking too much before, so I didn’t get better quickly.

"That's good. Although spring is almost here, the weather in Kyoto is still very cold."

She dressed warmly and took a few more sips of wine.

"Hey, I heard before that the Ministry of War is going to send food to the border. Do you think they will send everything to the border, so that Curry will have nothing?"

Nangong Yuan shook her head: "I don't know about this, but in wartime, we should focus on the soldiers first, otherwise the consequences will be much more serious than having less food."

Military rations have always been very important. It’s okay for everyone to go hungry, but if the soldiers are hungry, then when foreign enemies invade, more than one or two people will die.

"I'm just confused. Logically, last year's harvest was good, so there shouldn't be a shortage."

That's true. Nangong Yuan also found it strange, so he said, "Tao Zhu, ask someone to check the grain prices. Also, if there is enough energy, check the grain in the warehouses in various places."

"Yes, I'm right here."

Tao Zhu is now very reliable and efficient in his work, so he helped Nangong Yuan a lot.

But Nangong Yuan is unable to spare the time now.

She was preparing for her departure, not only to make sure everything went smoothly, but also to make sure things would not deviate from expectations after she left.

So she has been very busy lately and is almost exhausted.

Seeing Liu Qingyue drinking, she also drank a few glasses.

But she also knew her alcohol tolerance, so she didn't drink too much, but ate a few bites of snacks.

He looked at Yuehui Pavilion's account book again and did a careful calculation.

"Sister, stop being busy and come over to have a few drinks with me."

Seeing her eyes turn red, Nangong Yuan stepped forward and snatched the wine glass.

"Stop drinking. If you drink more, how can I take you back?"

Liu Qingyue shook her head: "Hey, this is a small matter, what am I afraid of."

She was leaning against the table, looking a little dazed.

Sure enough, I drank too much.

Nangong Yuan pushed her onto the soft couch beside her, told her to have a good rest, and asked the kitchen to prepare some sobering soup.

However, Liu Qingyue looked like she hadn't had a good rest for a long time and actually fell asleep.

"Miss Nangong, what about these account books?"

She waved her hand: "Let me handle it, leave it to me."

So, Nangong Yuan started to get busy again.

Originally Liu Qingyue was going to handle it herself today, but she ended up getting drunk instead.

So Nangong Yuan had no choice but to accept the defeat and handle the matter herself.

When she woke up, the account books were neatly laid out beside her.

"Sister, you are really my good sister."

Nangong Yuan said helplessly: "It's okay, but next time if you feel tired, just rest, don't force yourself."
