Su Qianqian received the latest news when she was a hundred miles away from the capital.

Emperor Qi Jing arranged for her to go to Shicun to help with disaster relief.

To save time, she didn't go to the capital, but instead led three thousand cavalrymen directly to Shicun.

At lunchtime, Prime Minister Feng and several ministers sat around an open-air pile of black charcoal fire, eating and chatting.

Prime Minister Feng deliberately mentioned Su Qianqian in front of all the ministers, saying, "I heard that Miss Su has already led three thousand cavalry to Shicun for disaster relief."

"Alas, Shi Village has the largest number of missing persons due to the snow disaster. Miss Su is young and lacks disaster relief experience. If the progress is delayed and the villagers cannot be rescued in time, I will definitely report her."

They have nearly 10,000 people on their side, and after two and a half days of work in Liuye Village, they still haven't been able to completely clear the village out.

Prime Minister Feng felt that the young girl surnamed Su only brought three thousand men, so her efficiency was definitely not as good as that of the people from Willow Leaf Village.

Minister Luo laughed heartily, "No matter how capable she is in battle, she can only dig little by little to save people; she won't be much faster than us."

Duke Anguo was truly speechless at Prime Minister Feng and Vice Minister Luo, whose food was provided by Gu's Tea House.

It's so unfair to eat Miss Su's food while trying to sabotage her.

Minister Qin changed the subject: "It's strange, really. It snowed for so many days, but as soon as Miss Su arrived, the snow stopped."

After Minister Qin said this, the others realized it was indeed true.

It feels very comfortable to bask in the warm sunshine.

As soon as Miss Su arrived in the capital, the heavy snow stopped and the long-awaited sun came out. What a coincidence!

Prime Minister Feng thought to himself, "Could it be that Minister Qin is implying that Miss Su is a lucky star who has brought good fortune to the capital?"

He remembered that Qin Changfeng, the grandson of Minister Qin, had stayed in Qinghe County for a long time, and wondered if he had come to the capital with Miss Su this time.

Just then, someone shouted, "Minister Qin, your grandson Qin Changfeng is reporting the situation in Shi Village to His Majesty."

Minister Qin was seventy years old, but because he was a military general, he was still in relatively good health.

He hadn't seen his grandson Qin Changfeng for a long time and missed him terribly. Upon hearing this, he dropped his bowl and ran away as fast as the wind could carry him.

Prime Minister Feng and Vice Minister Luo were particularly enthusiastic; they quickly ate a couple of bites of rice and then ran off to watch the excitement.

Prime Minister Feng assumed that the disaster relief efforts in Shicun were progressing slowly, and that Miss Su must have sent Qin Changfeng to complain or ask for favors.

He must stop him then; he absolutely cannot allow His Majesty to give that little girl any benefits.

However, Prime Minister Feng heard Qin Changfeng say, "...Miss Su led the team and cleared three villages in one morning: Shi Village and Changhe Village and Huaishu Village next to Shi Village."

The ministers present could not believe it when they heard this.

How is that possible?

They spent two and a half days working in Liuye Village, but they still couldn't completely clear the village out.

Stone Village is much larger, with more collapsed houses and more stones. How could it possibly have been cleared in just one morning? And they even cleared two more villages.

It must be that the little girl surnamed Su didn't understand the meaning of cleaning up the village, right?

Prime Minister Feng said to Qin Changfeng, "Clean up the village doesn't just mean clearing away stones and timber. The key is to save people, understand? It's not enough for you to just clean up the collapsed houses. Saving people is the key. Miss Su is still too young. She did such a small thing and came to ask for credit."

Qin Changfeng clearly sensed the malice in Prime Minister Feng's words. Was this old man out of his mind? To slander Miss Su like this was truly going too far.

Moreover, this old man completely underestimated Miss Su's abilities.

Qin Changfeng explained in detail: "Your Majesty, all 935 missing people in Shicun have been rescued, but unfortunately, 23 people were killed by falling debris, more than 100 were seriously injured, and more than 600 were slightly injured."

"All the missing people from Changhe Village and Huaishu Village have been rescued, and Miss Su has arranged for the military doctors she brought to treat them."

Prime Minister Feng could hardly believe it.

How could that be! Did you think rescuing someone from the ground was as easy as pulling up a radish?

That girl surnamed Su is definitely exaggerating her achievements.

"Your Majesty, Miss Su is too young and has no experience in disaster relief. I am willing to go to Miss Su's side and offer her some guidance."

When he gets to the girl, he must find evidence that she has falsely claimed credit.

Emperor Qi Jing did not intend to stop him. "Then go ahead, but there's no need for guidance. Prime Minister Feng, your disaster relief efficiency is too low. You can go to Miss Su's side and learn how to improve the efficiency of saving lives. Come back and share your experience with everyone."

Prime Minister Feng: I was going on an inspection tour! How did it turn into a study tour?

Qin Changfeng whistled loudly, and a large black dog came running over.

"Big Black, lie down."

The big black dog obediently lay down.

"Your Majesty, Miss Su said she wanted to send Dahei to you. Dahei was trained by Miss Su and it can accurately locate the exact location of people being buried. Miss Su gave all these trained dogs a unified name: search and rescue dogs."

Upon hearing this, Vice Minister Luo finally understood who the expert in raising dogs was; it turned out to be Miss Su from Qinghe County.

Emperor Qi Jing was very pleased. He knew that Dong Yong of the Ministry of Justice had saved many people using the big yellow dog, and now with an additional dog, he was sure that even more disaster victims could be saved.

The name "search and rescue dog" is quite fitting.

This dog is indeed different from ordinary dogs; its fur is shinier and its body is larger.

Qin Changfeng thought that since Miss Su had sent the emperor such a precious gift, the emperor would probably protect her.

He deliberately said, "Prime Minister Feng, why do I feel like you've been targeting Miss Su all along, and even questioning whether she's exaggerating her achievements?"

The big black dog was raised by Miss Su, so naturally it was on her side.

The little guy barked wildly at Prime Minister Feng, then pounced on him.

Prime Minister Feng was terrified and quickly pushed Vice Minister Luo in front to block him.

Qin Changfeng shouted "Stop!" and the big black dog immediately stopped.

Luo, the Vice Minister, was not bitten, but his hair was torn apart by the dog, leaving him disheveled and looking like a madman.

However, he didn't hate Prime Minister Feng for pushing him; he only hated the dog that Miss Su kept.

Emperor Qi Jing was very fond of Da Hei; who wouldn't like a dog that could understand human speech?

He was grateful to Miss Su for the dog, so he rebuked Prime Minister Feng, saying, "As the prime minister of a nation, how can you be so petty and target a mere young girl? Remember, disaster relief requires everyone's concerted effort!"

After reprimanding Prime Minister Feng, Emperor Qi Jing planned to quickly take the big black dog to rescue the people. Eager to test the dog's abilities, he urged the ministers watching the commotion, "It hasn't snowed today, so this is a good time to get to work. Hurry up and go rescue the people."

Prime Minister Feng stared at the big black dog, feeling extremely distressed.

I thought the young girl surnamed Su would have to dig her way through the soil like them, but I never expected that she would have a search and rescue dog.

Even with search and rescue dogs, it's impossible to clear three villages in just one morning. We're not gods; there are still many stones and timbers to clear.

So what kind of supernatural power does that little girl possess? How could she be so efficient!

Vice Minister Luo looked enviously at Emperor Qi Jing, who was leading a large black dog.

If someone else owned a search and rescue dog, he would definitely ask for one. In that case, the number of people he rescued would surely rank among the top three, and he would have made a great contribution so that he could plead for his eldest son.

But the one who owned the search and rescue dog was actually the little girl from Qinghe County whom he had been targeting.

Even if he went to ask them in person, they might not pay any attention.

Luo Shilang's close friend, Prime Minister Feng, was very unhappy.

Being scolded by Emperor Qi Jing in front of so many people was quite embarrassing.

It's all Qin Changfeng's fault for speaking ill of His Majesty, which led to him being scolded by His Majesty.

Prime Minister Feng watched Qin Changfeng's retreating figure and said sarcastically, "The grandson of the Minister of War is actually willing to be a little girl's follower. He's really spineless."

Although Minister Qin was seventy years old, his hearing was very sharp. He heard Prime Minister Feng's words very clearly. Prime Minister Feng was calling his grandson a lackey.

This Prime Minister Feng is so old, yet he's shameless.

At this moment, Feng Yuanxi's voice came over, "Father, I'm going with Changfeng to help General Su rescue people."

Minister Qin, being a military man, was not immune to vulgarity. "Prime Minister Feng, your precious son is practically begging to be Miss Su's lackey, yet you have the nerve to criticize my family's manners? Bah!"

Prime Minister Feng was so angry he wanted to hit someone, but although he was younger than Minister Qin, he didn't dare to make a move because he was unlikely to win.

Although Minister Qin is already seventy years old, he was a formidable general in his youth and is still in good health.

Prime Minister Feng thought to himself that Emperor Qi Jing had already agreed to let him go to Miss Su's place.

Then we'll find an opportunity to seize upon the girl's mistake, or Qin Changfeng's mistake, and have His Majesty punish them severely.

"Prepare the carriage; I'm going to supervise the construction."

After Prime Minister Feng got into the carriage.

Minister Luo clung to the carriage window and pleaded, "Your Excellency, that Miss Su is so efficient in disaster relief; she must have other search and rescue dogs. Could you please help me get one?"

Prime Minister Feng was very confident. "Don't worry, I'll bring back all the search and rescue dogs she has."

Without the search and rescue dogs, what will that little girl do?
