Exile? A mad, wicked woman empties the national treasury to escape famine.

She pointed to the potato sprouts in the corner and patiently explained,

"I've seen this in a book before. It's called a potato. It's very productive and can be eaten as food. One potato can grow into seven or eight potatoes."

I picked this on the road the day I arrived in your village. There are many more in the forest.

I didn't know if they would survive, so I thought I'd plant a few in your yard. I wanted to tell you sooner, but I didn't expect so many things to happen.

When I got back yesterday, I found that these things had survived, which means that transplanting can work! I'll take you to the forest later and transplant all the seedlings from the fields back to your own yards.

Once the sweet potatoes and potatoes have taken root, your food problem will be completely solved.

Ji Yunshu rattled off a whole bunch of things, and Uncle Wu didn't understand much of it. However, he did understand the most important point: the princess said that this thing could solve their food problem!

"Okay, okay, I'll go with you and move the rest back!"

Aunt Wu also came out of the house.

"Old man, what are you still squatting there for? Hurry up and tell the other villagers! Didn't the princess say there are plenty of these potato sprouts? You can't carry them all by yourself. Ask everyone to help you carry them. Be careful not to damage them. Bring them back carefully. Every single one of these is a lifeline!"

Aunt Wu couldn't stop smiling. She never expected that the princess's unintentional act would directly solve their food problem!

Wu Boxing stood up abruptly, nodding repeatedly.

"Alright, alright, I'll go and inform everyone right away, and have them bring their tools to pack these potato sprouts. Your Highness, please wait a moment, just a moment."

As he spoke, he ran outside like a child, so excited he almost jumped for joy.

Seeing this, Ji Yunshu was also very happy. Her spatial ability was very powerful and could solve the problem of food for everyone in the Prince's Mansion.

She planted those potato and sweet potato seedlings in preparation for her future life on the border, but now she is willing to use them to help the people in her entire village.

She makes the best use of resources and, within her capabilities, tries her best to take care of those around her.

It's not that she's overly compassionate; any reasonably normal person would have done the same.

Everyone from the Prince's Mansion got off the carriage, including Madam Li. The little guy was held by Xie Mohuan.

Ji Yunshu hadn't touched the little guy in a long time. She walked to Xie Mohuan's side, reached out and poked his little face. He had been born for several days and was being fed a mixture of her formula and Li's breast milk. The little guy was chubby and especially lovable.

"Sister-in-law, have you named the little one yet?"

We can't keep calling him "little guy" all the time.

Mrs. Li nodded. "We've discussed it. The child's formal name is Xie Qing, and his nickname is Tuanzi."

Xie Qing signifies that the Xie family is clean and honest, and the glutinous rice ball represents the hope for family reunion.

Ji Yunshu nodded

"What a nice name."

He reached out and rubbed Tuanzi's cheeks again.

"Tuanzi, Tuanzi, you have a name now. From now on, I'll call you Tuanzi!"

Seeing this, everyone burst into laughter. The birth of the dumpling seemed to dispel a lot of gloom.

Other exiled prisoners gradually gathered around, and seeing their joyful scene, I felt a little uneasy.

They were both released, so why is there such a big difference in their mentality?

Look at them, they're all smiles the whole way. With that kind of attitude, they're bound to live longer than others!

The eldest prince inside the carriage also heard the noise outside. He lifted a corner of the carriage curtain and looked out, immediately seeing Ji Yunshu laughing so hard she was doubled over in the crowd.

His eyes narrowed slightly, finding Ji Yunshu's smile somewhat irritating.

What's wrong with this woman?

Back in the capital, she would only revolve around him. If it were before, Ji Yunshu would definitely have come running over to care for him.

Now they don't even ask him a single question. The news Xiao Wu found out last night also said that Ji Yunshu and Xie Moyao's relationship wasn't very good. They weren't close at all, and only Ji Yunshu would occasionally show concern for Xie Moyao.

In the eyes of the eldest prince, this was just a normal, routine greeting because Ji Yunshu had married Xie Moyao; Ji Yunshu's heart was still with him.

She was cold to me yesterday, and she's ignoring me today. It must be her playing hard to get, trying to get his attention.

It has to be said that he did pay a little more attention to her for these reasons, after all, Ji Yunshu's current appearance is really too different from how she was in the capital.

But his patience had its limits. He could tolerate her occasional tantrums and willfulness, but he could never tolerate them indefinitely.

He lowered the carriage curtain, looked at Ji Yunyao beside him, and seemed to think of something. A hint of impatience flashed in his eyes. He turned around, pulled the quilt over his head, and continued to snore.

Since the air conditioner was installed, his sleep quality has been excellent. He slept soundly from yesterday until this morning. He hadn't had such a comfortable sleep in a long time, and he didn't feel sticky when he woke up.

This air conditioner is really useful. When he returns to Beijing, he must move it back to his own yard.

After a cup of tea

The villagers, carrying their tools, walked towards Uncle Wu's house in twos and threes, each with a smile on their face. They were all delighted to hear that the princess had accidentally discovered something to eat that could solve their future food problem.

They practically wanted to worship Ji Yunshu!

It goes without saying how precious food is to them.

"Your Highness, where is what you're talking about? We're all ready, let's go quickly!"

"Yes, Your Highness, we can't wait any longer. Uncle Wu told us that this plant is incredibly productive, with one fruit yielding five or six!"

Everyone was eager to go, and Ji Yunshu didn't dawdle either, leading everyone away in a grand procession.

She didn't plan to go very far, so she didn't have anyone drive a horse-drawn carriage or anything like that.

Besides the villagers, Xie Mohuan and Xie Lin also volunteered to go and help, while Xiao Lan stayed in the village to take care of the others.

When the eldest prince woke up again and got off the carriage, the village was quiet and deserted.

When he learned that Ji Yunshu had led the villagers to find food, he was unhappy but did not get angry, since finding food was an important matter.

However, Ji Yunshu was notoriously useless in the capital. How could she possibly know what crops looked like?

Give me a break.

It's probably just a lucky guess, a pointless fuss.

He was hungry and wanted to take some snacks from the carriage, but then he remembered that Ji Yunshu had given them all away to the villagers yesterday, like a generous benefactor.

The eldest prince was so angry that he pounded his chest and stamped his feet. He would wait until that bitch Ji Yunshu came back and begged him for mercy, and then he would see how he dealt with her. He had never gone hungry in his life!

On the other side, Ji Yunshu led the villagers along the way, chatting and laughing, creating a very joyful atmosphere.

After walking for about an incense stick's time, the group arrived at a forest with tall trees.

"Everyone, I got the potato sprouts here before, but I forgot the exact location. I remember there were a lot of them around. Let's split up and look for them. The more people there are, the faster we can find them. You've all seen what the potato sprouts look like. Whoever finds them, let me know first."
