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

"It's nothing. I just said you have a strong learning ability. You can continue studying these theoretical concepts for now, and I'll teach you practical skills when I have time and your leg injury has healed."

After a few practice sessions, you'll be able to perform surgery on others yourself. Surgery can't be rushed; you need a thorough understanding of human anatomy. During this time, focus on improving your knowledge of human anatomy and blood vessels. Before long, you'll be able to perform simple surgeries.

Xie Moyao nodded excitedly.

"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely read it carefully."

He was indeed somewhat interested in these things. Anyway, when he got to the Northwest, he could study these medical books when he had nothing to do. On the one hand, he could enhance his knowledge, and on the other hand, he could help Ji Yunshu when she was performing surgery on others.

During their conversation, Ji Yunshu also gave Xie Moyao's legs a general examination.

She has indeed recovered quite well; even without X-rays for follow-up examinations, she can tell.

"Your leg injury is almost healed. Soak it in the spiritual spring water for the next few days to help it penetrate your kneecap and promote bone growth and development. Then you can try to walk slowly."

Xie Moyao's expression suddenly tightened; he had finally waited for this day.

In just a few more days, he will be able to try walking on the ground. Is it really that fast?

He thought he wouldn't be able to move around much until he was almost in the Northwest, but he never expected that day to come so soon.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your trouble."

Ji Yunshu nodded, said nothing more, turned around and sat on the edge of the bed. She used her mind to take out a basin from her space, put some spiritual spring water in the basin, and took out a towel.

She slightly elevated Xie Moyao's upper body, placed the towel in a basin filled with spiritual spring water, allowing the towel to fully absorb the water, and finally lifted the towel out of the basin and draped it over Xie Moyao's knees.

"We're in the carriage now, so we can't take a bath right now. This is the only way we can do it. It'll be a little tiring, but it'll be good for your legs. When I'm not around, you can repeat it a few more times by yourself. It'll be just as effective as taking a bath."

"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I'll do as you say."

Xie Moyao nodded slightly and carefully noted down what Ji Yunshu had told him.

The thought that he would be able to slowly stand up in a few days filled him with more excitement than ever before.

He knew before that he wouldn't be crippled, and later that his legs could be healed, but never before had he truly felt that he was really going to stand up again.

His nose tingled slightly, and he lowered his head, trying his best not to let Ji Yunshu see his unusual expression.

But how could he possibly hide his little tricks from Ji Yunshu?

Ji Yunshu didn't expose him, but gave him time to process it. For someone like Xie Moyao, who used to be a prodigy, his leg injury during this period must have caused him a lot of suffering.

Now that they are really about to stand up again, she knows how excited Xie Moyao is.

The aroma of roasted meat wafted into the carriage from outside. She lifted the curtain and saw that everyone had already prepared the crocodile meat, which was now being smoked on a rack.

She smiled slightly, took out some barbecue seasonings from her spatial storage, got off the carriage with the items, and left Xie Moyao alone in the carriage to let him process his emotions on his own.

Xie Moyao watched Ji Yunshu's departing figure, his eyes flickering slightly.

His wife is such a clever woman; she can probably tell what he's thinking without him saying a word.

He is indeed quite agitated right now, not just somewhat agitated, but very agitated.

For him, getting back on his feet was like being resurrected from the dead.

When Ji Yunshu got off the carriage, Xie Lin, Xiao Lan, and the others were roasting their own crocodile meat.

There weren't many people in their palace, so Xie Lin and Xiao Lan only kept the meat from two crocodiles, and gave the rest to the villagers and officials.

This was something Ji Yunshu had instructed before getting into the carriage. There weren't many people in their palace, so they couldn't eat much. Besides, they weren't short of money right now. Compared to them, these villagers needed the crocodile meat more.

He simply didn't want these villagers to develop a habit of getting something for nothing, so after Xie Lin removed Ji Yunshu's hidden weapon, he left the entire process of dealing with the crocodiles to the villagers themselves.

After Ji Yunshu relented, almost all the villagers collected some crocodile meat to store, making smoked crocodile meat, and some also made crocodile jerky.

Even Xie Zhaoting and his family of three managed to pick up some crocodile meat from the corners of the house. Since they had finally found something to eat, they couldn't bear to eat it and turned all the meat into jerky.

Ji Yunshu sat down next to Xie Lin and helped the two of them to make the fire bigger.

They don't have time to slowly smoke the cured meat now, so they can only turn up the fire a little and try to dry the meat as much as possible.

The three of them were grilling meat together when they heard Zhang, the village head, say cheerfully,

"Hehe, Your Highness, thank you so much! We're so lucky to have you, otherwise we wouldn't be able to eat meat! This meat smells delicious!"

Old Zhao sat beside him, also holding a piece of meat and grilling it.

"Yeah, this thing looked so scary, I thought it was inedible, but I didn't expect it to smell so good after grilling. I just took a bite, and the taste was indescribable, almost like eating pork! So delicious!"

Xiao Ergou sat beside the two of them. His face was covered in black grime, and his mouth was shiny with oil. He looked satisfied, clearly having eaten meat.

"That's right, thank you so much, Your Highness. Luckily, Your Highness had that amazing guy who was able to kill so many crocodiles and give us a good meal!"

I just tasted this crocodile meat; it smelled amazing after being roasted over a fire. I've never eaten such delicious meat before. I never imagined we'd have the chance to eat so much meat one day!

They've grown up and rarely get to eat meat in the village.

Occasionally, we could eat a little meat, which was only when we went to the mountains to hunt some game, and that was considered a rare treat.

Although there are prey in the mountains, hunting is extremely difficult for them; sometimes they go a year or two without catching a single prey.

Ji Yunshu smiled, took out a bundle from the side, took out some seasonings, and handed them to Zhang Lizheng, Old Man Zhao, and the others.

"Here you go, Zhang Lizheng and Zhao Laobo. These are some seasonings I bought in the city before. I've already prepared them."

Sprinkle these seasonings on the grilled meat, and it will taste even better, more fragrant and delicious than freshly grilled meat. Give it a try!

As she spoke, she handed the other seasonings to Xiao Er Gou, indicating that he should distribute them to everyone.

Xiao Ergou's eyes lit up; in his eyes, whatever the princess took out was a treasure.

He smiled and wiped his hands, then stepped forward to take the seasoning from Ji Yunshu. He smelled it, and his eyes lit up. After thanking her, he began to distribute it to everyone.
