Chapter 272 The drunkard doesn’t care about drinking

Hearing the system say these things, and feeling the cold air in the air, Su Muyao's expression became serious.

If this winter is exceptionally cold, many orcs will freeze to death.

"Huhuhu..."

The north wind howled, whipping up snowflakes from the ground, and with the continuous snowfall from the sky, it created a scene of snow falling everywhere.

The wind carried snowflakes like countless tiny ice needles, pricking the faces of pedestrians. Many pedestrians could only squint and shrink their necks to walk forward, and if they were not careful, they would be covered by wind and snow. Footprints and carriage tracks would soon be covered by the wind and snow.

"Why is it snowing so heavily all of a sudden?"

"Who knows? I've never seen such heavy snow in previous years."

"Oh dear, it's so cold! It's so cold, let's go home."

"Won't the orcs freeze to death in this cold weather?"

"I don't know, hurry home and burn more firewood..."

The pedestrians were talking and hurrying home.

Su Muyao lifted the carriage curtain and saw this scene. Looking at the snow falling all around, for some reason, she thought of Xie Guixue.

The system said that Xie Guixue's soul and body had been completely restored, and he had even woken up.

I don't know where he is now.

Perhaps deep down she hoped he would come back to her, or perhaps subconsciously she knew he wouldn't.

Su Muyao's heart clenched, and she felt a pang of sadness.

She sighed, shook her head, and stopped thinking about it.

When Su Muyao arrived home by carriage, before she could even lift the curtain, Wen Nanxi had already lifted it and reached out to help her down from the carriage.

Shen Ci'an and the others were also standing at the door, each one wishing they could reach out and hug her.

Su Muyao placed her hand in Wen Nanxi's palm. "Why are you all at the door on such a cold day?"

Wen Nanxi gently and carefully helped Su Muyao down from the carriage, saying, "The weather has changed drastically, and I'm a little worried about you."

Although they knew of the wife's strength, they were still worried because she hadn't returned.

Don't forget that there's an evil spider orc in Beast King City who's deliberately targeting the wife; it's hard to say there aren't other evil orcs like that lurking in the shadows.

Su Muyao felt a warmth in her heart and said, "I'm fine, let's go home and talk first."

Once inside the mansion, the servants closed the gate, and Su Muyao and Wen Nanxi went to the main hall.

Wen Nanxi and the others had already boiled water, poured hot tea for Su Muyao, and even prepared a hand warmer for her to warm her hands.

Su Muyao felt like she was being taken care of like a porcelain doll, and she was very touched. "Actually, it's not that cold."

She used her superpowers to resist the cold air, but using them continuously would eventually lead to exhaustion.

She held a hand warmer, drank hot tea, and told everyone about what had happened after she entered the palace.

"Did the wife tell the Jiang family head the truth?"

“Yes, the Jiang family head is different from Jiang Mochuan. He has always been a calm and rational beastman, and he knows what to do to save Jiang Mochuan.”

"So he will tell Jiang Mochuan about this, and at the same time cooperate with me. He will find an opportunity to let me into the Liu family, so that I can use the time travel method to explore Liu Mengyan's secret."

The reason for telling the Jiang family head what Liu Mengyan was was also to use the Jiang family's power to deal with Liu Mengyan.

In any case, now that Jiang Mochuan is in the Liu family, if she wants to enter the Liu family undetected to investigate their secrets, she will indeed need the Jiang family's cooperation.

Shen Ci'an analyzed, "According to the Jiang family head's intentions, Jiang Mochuan already suspects Liu Mengyan. Now, returning to the Liu family is only to appease Liu Mengyan."

"So it is true that what the wife said and did at the palace banquet had an effect."

Su Muyao nodded and said, "That's right. The Jiang family has some resources. The Jiang family head used a magic artifact left by his ancestors to see that Jiang Mochuan's body was possessed by evil. When I said that Liu Mengyan was a spider beastman, the Jiang family head almost fainted on the spot."

Xiao Jihan said coldly, "If even the Jiang family head is like this, I wonder how disgusted Jiang Mochuan would be if he knew that Liu Mengyan, whom he has always liked, is a spider beastman."

Just thinking about it is unbearable. Su Muyao said, "So we'll wait for the right opportunity to go into the Liu family and find out what's going on."

"Even with the current unusually cold weather, we must all take precautions to keep warm."

Wen Nanxi said gently, "Don't worry, our current superpowers are strong enough to withstand the cold."

Hua Linye looked puzzled and said, "This weather is indeed quite strange. It's colder than the Northern Territory, and the snowflakes are bigger than in the Northern Territory. If it keeps snowing like this, the heavy snow will seal off the entire Beast Emperor City."

Mei Qingchen's eyes gleamed with a sacred light as he said, "My lady, this extreme cold will last for a month, and countless orcs in Beast King City will freeze and starve to death."

Considering Mei Qingchen's abilities, Su Muyao did not doubt the truthfulness of his words.

She immediately wrote a letter, then whistled, and a tall, masked man in black descended.

"See Master."

"Su Ying, take this letter to the palace and give it to Her Majesty the Empress."

Given the unusually cold weather, Dongning Beast Kingdom should make preparations early.

"Yes."

Su Ying, holding the letter and keepsake, vanished like a gust of wind.

"He's a level 10 orc?"

Su Muyao nodded and said, "Yes, he is the person my father left me, and he is also the current leader of the 50,000-strong Su family army."

She was the master of the Su family army, and the leader listened to her.

Inside the palace, the Empress summoned Su Ying to see her, saying that her father had already made arrangements for Su Ying to work for her once she returned.

These are subordinates specially trained for her use.

She can arrange for Su Ying to do anything in the future.

Wen Nanxi and the others' expressions changed.

They had never known of the existence of this shadow guard before.

They always felt that the wife had a secret they didn't know about.

After talking with everyone for a while, Su Muyao went back to her room to rest.

She said she was resting, but in reality she went into her spatial dimension.

The space had already expanded several times over, now covering an area of ​​twenty acres, which was planted with various crops and vegetables.

The food in the space grows quickly, and two harvests have already been completed. Wheat, corn, soybeans, and vegetables have all been harvested and stored in the specially built warehouses next to it.

The system said, "Host, don't worry about supplies. You have plenty of supplies stored in your space."

"The supplies you stored in the apocalypse are all here now, thanks to your contract with the Beastman, which also granted you access to them."

Whether it was food, medicine, or other things she had hoarded, she released them all into her storage space.

Su Muyao smiled as she looked at the abundant supplies.

She took out a silk quilt and some coal from her spatial storage.

Although the beastmen said they weren't afraid of the cold, using their supernatural abilities to resist the chill would easily deplete their powers. Using silk quilts and coal for warmth would allow them to sleep more soundly at night.

Just as Su Muyao came out of the space, she heard a knock on the door.

Su Muyao opened the door and saw Hua Linye.

Su Muyao asked softly, "Lin Ye, what's wrong?"

Hua Linye's fox-like eyes seemed to be veiled with melancholy. He spoke in a low voice, "My lady, several families, including the Han family, are requesting an audience with you outside. They say they want to thank you in person."

"The Han family head also brought Young Master Han with him. Many family heads brought outstanding young men of marriageable age from their families."

“My lady, their true intentions are not what they seem.”
