Chapter 258 Rushing

"What kind of official road is this? It's killing people."

Pulling open the carriage curtain, Ye Jintang looked out and saw that the official road had some uneven marks caused by rain at some point. It seemed that there had been a heavy rain here recently.

Since he couldn't take the carriage, Ye Jintang wanted to ride a horse.

For convenience, she put on a human skin mask and changed into men's clothes.

The pretty little girl instantly turned into a handsome young man with delicate features.

Zhou Cong led Tayun over, and Ye Jintang carefully climbed onto the horse.

Tayun hadn't carried Ye Jintang for a run for a long time, so he was very excited and immediately started jogging happily.

It felt that it was running very slowly, but Ye Jintang didn't think so.

"Tayun, slow down. We are not in a hurry today. Just keep pace with the carriage."

Ye Jintang gently pulled the reins, and Tayun gradually slowed down.

Even so, she quickly rushed from the back of the team to the carriage where Xiao Mo was.

Xiao Mo in the carriage saw Ye Jintang at a glance, and he immediately went to the window to talk to her.

"Why are you in such a good mood today? I'm actually riding a horse."

"It's too bumpy to ride in a carriage. It would be nice to relax by riding a horse for a while."

"How about I ride with you? My leg is injured, and it's really uncomfortable to sit in the carriage and be jolted back and forth."

"We have so many horses. You can just switch one over here. Why do you need to squeeze in with me?"

"How can that be possible? There is a fixed number of carriages and horses. Even the number of horses the guards ride is fixed."

"You can't ask me to rob the guards' horses and let them sit in the carriage. It would be troublesome if something dangerous happened."

Xiao Mo's words were well-reasoned and Ye Jintang couldn't find any reason to refuse.

She raised her brows slightly, looking reluctant.

"Then I'll give you a ride for a little while so you can stretch your legs."

"Row."

Xiao Mo had a smile on his face. Although he could not move very conveniently with one leg, he did not need anyone's help when he climbed onto the horse.

Seeing his smooth movements, Ye Jintang couldn't help but say, "Your leg injury is almost healed. You can give up the wheelchair and use crutches."

"Sitting in a wheelchair is even more embarrassing. Leaning on crutches will affect my brave image."

Ye Jintang rolled his eyes silently. How could he be so brave even though he was lame?

Xiao Mo took the reins from Ye Jintang, squeezed the horse's belly and said loudly, "Hold on tight."

As he finished speaking, Tayun snorted and rushed out like a sharp arrow.

Ye Jintang, who was totally unprepared, slammed into Xiao Mo's chest.

The warm mountain breeze of late summer brushed across her cheeks, and she felt as if the scenery around her was accelerated, passing quickly before her eyes.

The last time Xiao Mo was driving, she had felt Stepun's speed like the wind. This time, with no carriage in the way, Stepun rushed forward quickly as if he were stepping on Hot Wheels.

"Slow down, you're running too fast."

Ye Jintang was so frightened that he held onto Xiao Mo's arm tightly.

"A thousand-mile horse like Tayun should run at this speed. It would be a waste to have him sauntering along slowly with our carriage team every day."

After running at a high speed for a stick of incense, Xiao Mo slowly slowed down the Taxi.

"It's better to run slowly. I feel a little panicky when I run too fast."

Xiao Mo looked back and saw the carriage team that had been left far behind him.

"Let's walk slowly now."

Xiao Mo was so happy that he could finally be alone with the person he loved.

"Can you ride in the carriage with me later? I feel really suffocated riding alone in the carriage, and there's no one to talk to."

"You can call Jiang Heng over to talk to you and relieve your boredom."

"How can they be the same? Jiang Heng is very boring. No matter what I say to him, he will only answer, 'OK, OK, OK, OK, OK, OK.'"

Ye Jintang just smiled and said nothing. He guessed that Jiang Heng didn't like being alone with his master Xiao Mo.

"I still need to learn medicine from Master Mu, so it's not convenient for me to ride in the same carriage with you."

"Come with me in the carriage, and we can discuss how to build Ningchuan Prefecture after we go there."

"I am not afraid of riding a horse and fighting, but it is a bit difficult to manage a large fiefdom and build it into a city where the people can live and work in peace and contentment."

"The prince has many advisers around him. With their help, I believe that Ningchuan Prefecture will be built soon."

"They are more powerful than each other on paper, but when it comes to actually asking them to do something, they all become cowards. If they were powerful, my Qin Palace would not have been poor for so many years."

The helplessness in Xiao Mo's words made Ye Jintang burst out laughing.

"I'm sorry, I just couldn't help it."

It is not easy for a prince to become as successful as Xiao Mo.

"Ningchuan Prefecture is vast and rich in resources. If we can make good use of it, it will definitely become a treasure trove. As long as there is silver, I will never be controlled by the emperor and Imperial Noble Consort Dehui again."

With money, one can support the army, and with military power in hand, one also has the right to speak. Whether it is Emperor Jing or Imperial Noble Consort Dehui, when they speak to him in the future, they must consider whether their tone is too harsh.

"I don't know anything about Ningchuan Prefecture. Your Majesty, please tell me in detail what kind of place Ningchuan Prefecture is."

The two had talked about Ningchuan Prefecture before, but at that time they were discussing local customs and culture. This time, they were talking about how to turn Ningchuan Prefecture into a treasure trove.

"Ningchuan Prefecture is large, and there are many desolate areas. If we can turn the desolate areas into pastures, or plant a variety of crops, then Ningchuan Prefecture will really become a treasure trove."

"Nine out of ten of Tian Qin's war horses have to be purchased from other countries. The quantity and quality of the horses we raise ourselves cannot catch up with those of foreign races. If I own a large ranch, I can make a fortune just by selling horses."

"As for crops, only when there is a large amount of food to fill the stomachs of the people of Ningchuan Prefecture can they think about doing other things."

"If you can't even fill your stomach, there's no point in talking about anything else."

“It’s not easy to turn barren land into farmland that produces food.”

Ye Jintang naturally understood Xiao Mo's thoughts.

Ningchuan Prefecture has a harsh climate, and it is difficult for ordinary crops to survive.

"I heard that you have a very difficult medicinal herb to grow, Jintang. Since you can grow medicinal herbs well, you should be able to grow suitable crops as well."

Hearing Xiao Mo say this, Ye Jintang laughed.

It turned out that he was planning to plant it on her.

But it is not a difficult task. She can put the seeds of crops in the space and cultivate several crops. After the survival ability of the crops is improved, she can plant them on barren land.

She believed that with the magical power of space, she would be able to cultivate crops with extremely strong vitality.

The two of them rode slowly on the official road. They didn't know how long they walked or talked before the carriage team behind them caught up.

The two were in high spirits, so they got into the carriage together and continued discussing the topic.
