Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage-Chapter 1328 - 1327: Simply Too Moving!

Lan Fan’s team has returned.

Some of the villagers who saw their departure are still filled with doubt at this moment.

The news of the State Preceptor’s departure soon spread.

But thankfully, the State Preceptor is back!

"Princess, the items that need to be prepared for tomorrow have been listed by the State Preceptor."

Xi Jiu retrieved the list from Lan Fan.

When he entered the door, his face was already unpleasant—no, to be exact, the moment he saw the list, he had that sour expression.

"At a time like this, this guy still wants to go to such great lengths to squander resources! Does he even consider that Xinhua Village has practically no valuables left for him to waste?"

He’s not a resident of Nanming Country, so he doesn’t understand the customs of its State Preceptor or rituals.

But this ceremonial event, with the current plight of Xinhua Village, is undoubtedly an extravagant waste.

It demands the construction of a completely new high platform, various offerings for the ritual, dozens of young men and women—and if that weren’t enough, the villagers are required to slaughter a hundred pigs, cows, and sheep!

A hundred! Do they even know how difficult it is for everyone to have a bite of meat after the flood disaster, yet he wants to squander this much food? It’s downright excessive to the extreme!

"Princess, I don’t quite understand. For villagers afflicted by epidemic disease, does this so-called blessing ritual really help them?"

With this time and energy, it would make more sense to think of ways to actually treat the villagers.

"It’s not really useful for treatment, but it does help to soothe people’s spirits."

Chu Qianli looked at him and smiled, saying, "The ceremony truly needs to be taken seriously. If even we don’t take it seriously, wouldn’t the villagers see it as a joke?"

"But..."

"It’s fine. You tell Shiyi to investigate the items used in past rituals by the State Preceptor and write them down for me, that’s all I need."

"Got it." Xi Jiu immediately went out, and soon returned again: "Shiyi said he needs an hour."

"Alright."

Feng Yexuan sat to the side, still diligently packaging medicines needed for tomorrow.

Over the course of the whole day, this task had become second nature to him.

When they mentioned Shiyi, Feng Yexuan’s handsome brows furrowed slightly with a trace of doubt: "The Shiyi you’re talking about—could it be Gan Shiyi from the Gan Family of Yun Nan?"

Chu Qianli didn’t know much about Shiyi’s background, so she couldn’t answer that question.

Xi Jiu replied, "That’s right."

Feng Yexuan’s gaze fell onto Chu Qianli’s expression. Seeing her reaction, he couldn’t help but feel a little frustrated.

"You don’t even know who he is, yet you’ve managed to recruit him under your command!"

"I don’t know, but Fu Long knows him." Anyone recommended by Fu Long was naturally trustworthy.

As for Fu Long, she trusted him unconditionally.

However... Chu Qianli tilted her head, staring at Feng Yexuan curiously: "Why does the Prince seem to be in such a bad mood?"

Xi Jiu cleared his throat twice, suppressing a chuckle, and said, "Back in the day, the Prince personally went to invite Shiyi, but wasn’t able to recruit him."

Chu Qianli widened her large, shimmering eyes in shock!

It turns out Shiyi was such an impressive figure that even the Prince couldn’t successfully recruit him personally!

It was simply astonishing!

But wait... that wasn’t right!

"Prince, didn’t you already meet Shiyi? Why didn’t you mention it earlier then?"

"This Prince never met him!" Upon hearing this, Feng Yexuan’s expression turned even darker.

Xi Jiu couldn’t hold back this time and burst into laughter: "It seems the Prince... didn’t even step foot into his door, let alone see his true appearance. Later, even after encountering him, he still couldn’t recognize him."

Chu Qianli was almost moved to tears!

The person Fu Long had brought back for her was truly impressive beyond words!

"Then you..." Just as her words trailed off, Chu Qianli suddenly glanced at Feng Yexuan.

Outside, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard...
