"Yao'er, don't worry, my mother informed your two brothers early, and they will prepare hot water and good dishes for Yao'er, and when Yao'er gets home, she will have delicious food." Guan Xinyue comforted.

These days, Guan Xinyue has always understood some of Li Yao's temperament, if it comes to food, Li Yao can always cheer up some spirits.

Sure enough, Li Yao listened to Guan Xinyue's words, the clouds on her face dissipated, and her bright eyes returned to their smart color.

"Mother, can this Jingyang's food be different from the place next to it?" Li Yao changed from lying down to sitting, and after getting up, he blinked and asked.

"It's all the same ingredients, and there's no big difference, but it's easy to buy whatever you want to eat in this Jingyang City, there are always merchants who will find a way to transport ingredients that are not locally produced, and they can be sold to the rich at a high price, and the cooks in our general's mansion are no worse than the imperial chefs in the palace, and the cooked meals can always have the taste of Yao'er." Guan Xinyue saw that Li Yao was coming to her senses, and reached out and gently touched Li Yao's head.

Li Yao's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Mother, are there a lot of rich people in Jingyang?" ”

Compared with food, Li Yao is also very interested in making money.

"Hmm." Guan Xinyue nodded, and then counted Li Yao with her fingers: "The entire Jingyang City, plus the floating population, totals nearly one million people. There are more than 100,000 people in the palace, including the royal family, the palace people and the Praetorian Guards, the princes and generals, the civil and military officials, and their families, there are also tens of thousands of people, which accounts for 20% of the number. ”

"Wow." Li Yao just listened to Guan Xinyue's introduction, and her eyes widened and she exclaimed.

This Jingyang City is really not a simple place, it is simply a gathering place for the powerful and rich!

The silver in this place must be very profitable!

Just as Li Yao had the idea of this Jingyang City, he suddenly heard some movement outside.

The groom outside suddenly grabbed the horse, causing the carriage to gradually stop, and then reported to Guan Xinyueyu: "Madam, the general's men and horses are catching up. ”

"They're back so soon?" Guan Xinyue was both a little surprised, but also reasonable.

Even if she had thought that the general would hurry back, she also thought that these horses might be able to rush in front of her, which is the only way from the border pass to Jingyang, and it is not accidental to meet on the road.

Li Yao suddenly felt a little nervous when she heard this, she was still looking forward to meeting the general every day, but she didn't expect that this was really going to meet, and that expectation turned into nervousness.

Maybe it's because she only got along with Li Zhengying for a few days last time, and she didn't feel too familiar with it, but she hadn't seen her for a long time, and suddenly felt a little strange again.

However, while being nervous, Li Yao was still a little happy, she looked at Guan Xinyue and said, "Mother, is Daddy back?" ”

"Well, let's go out and have a look." Guan Xinyue took Li Yao's hand and lifted the carriage curtain.

Li Zhengying led people to catch up with Guan Xinyue's team on horseback, and kept catching up with several carriages in front of them, only to find Guan Xinyue and Li Yao who were about to get off in one of the carriages.

He pulled the horse and looked at the mother and daughter, who paused for a moment and did not speak for a long time, but the surprise in his eyes was impossible to ignore.

Guan Xinyue maintained the movement of getting off the carriage, and also paused there, looking at Li Zhengjie, who was dusty and heroic, her eyes were also a little red.

General Guan Zhiyong, who followed behind, saw that the family met and did not speak, and he was very anxious and rode forward very blindly, and then looked at Guan Xinyue and said with a smile: "Little sister! I'm back with Jeong-young! ”
