Chapter 822:  Little Princess Consort

Yu Youyao’s face turned red. Only then did she realize that Yin Huaixi had caught her and protected her in his arms, not letting her suffer any injuries.

Moreover, she was actually lying on Yin Huaixi.

“Were you frightened?” Yin Huaixi patted her back gently and comforted her. “Don’t be afraid. You’re fine now.”

He lay flat on the ground and rested his chin on the top of Yu Youyao’s head. If he lowered his head slightly, he could kiss the top of her fragrant head. She had used rose dew. Perhaps because she had been riding the horse for a while, her body was sweating. The fragrance of the dew immediately spread. When he leaned closer to smell it, it was as if threads wrapped around his nose and refreshed him.

His throat rolled, and his mouth felt a little dry. He quickly asked her, “Are you injured?”

“I’m fine.” Yu Youyao was embarrassed and anxious. As she quickly got up from him, she asked, “You were focused on protecting me just now. Are you alright?”

Yin Huaixi was filled with warmth and fragrance as he suddenly left. He felt a little lost. “I’m a martial artist. My skin is thick, and I’m resistant to falls and beatings. What can happen?”

Yu Youyao was a little worried. “Since you’re fine, why aren’t you getting up from the ground?”

It was hard for Yin Huaixi to say. Teaching her how to ride a horse was simply more tiring than riding a horse for an entire day.

He was simply physically and mentally exhausted.

He could only say, “I’m looking at the scenery.”

This answer seemed careless when she heard it. Yu Youyao imitated Yin Huaixi and lay on the grass. She looked at the clouds in the sky and the mountains in the distance of the canyon. She suddenly felt that lying down and looking at the scenery did not seem bad.

Yin Huaixi was stunned for a moment. He tilted his head to look at her lying beside him. From a palm’s distance, he could even smell the fragrance of roses from her side.

The sky was a blanket and the ground was a bed. She was beside him. Could this be considered “sharing a bed”?

Even Yin Huaixi’s ears turned red. He cleared his throat. “Cough, this is your first time learning how to ride a horse. How does it feel?”

Yu Youyao was used to talking to others. When she saw him talking, she tilted her head to look at him. “It’s quite good. I’m just a little afraid and nervous, but I’m not used to it. I’m always worried that I’ll fall off the horse.” She suddenly thought of how Yin Huaixi had cushioned her fall from the horse just now and smiled. “But after falling once, I’m suddenly not afraid anymore.”

Only the unknown was scary.

After falling once, she was suddenly not so afraid.

Besides, someone would catch her before she fell to prevent her from being injured.

Yin Huaixi looked at her and felt guilty under her bright eyes. He quickly turned to look at the sky. “After overcoming your fear and nervousness, you’ll be able to learn how to ride a horse after practicing a few more times. You’ve learned quite quickly.” He quickly got up from the ground. “Let’s strike while the iron is hot and practice more.”

Yu Youyao was too embarrassed to say that she was a little tired after riding for an hour, especially her hands. They hurt a little because she was holding the reins tightly.

However, how could she not suffer when learning?

Yu Youyao did not argue. This time, it was a little smoother than last time. She pulled the reins of the horse herself and rode around the canyon. Yin Huaixi patted the horse’s stomach and the horse began to jog. Yu Youyao was not as nervous as before. She just had to ensure that she did not fall from the horse’s back and did not pull the reins randomly.

After practicing for an hour, Yu Youyao could already ride a horse and jog on the flat road.

When they returned to the Puming Zen Temple, the sun had already set.

When Old Madam Xie saw her granddaughter, although she looked a little tired, she was in a good mood. Old Madam Xie knew that she was having a good time today, so she did not say anything.

The next day, Old Madam Xie and Madam Wang accompanied Yu Youyao up the mountain.

Yu Youyao did not want to give up halfway. She wanted to continue learning how to ride a horse.

Yin Huaixi knew that she had practiced riding a horse for too long yesterday and her muscles and bones were a little sore. He only let her practice for an hour and did not let her continue.

After staying in the Puming Zen Temple for three days, Yu Youyao was already riding a horse well. Yin Huaixi did not have to worry about her falling off the horse in a panic.

After returning to the courier station, he heard that the four families had joined forces with the local rich families to take turns setting up porridge stalls to help the refugees. Lord Li had mobilized the government’s manpower to help the You army in the refugee camp and had already begun to move the refugees.

Yu Youyao finally felt relieved.

Liancheng was one of the first areas in the three provinces of Liaodong to implement the “national policy”. It had a certain pioneer and representative role in settling the refugees in the North and promoting the “national policy”.

At the same time, it also decided on the related work and arrangements for the second and third batches.

Therefore, Yin Huaixi valued it very much.

He had come to Liancheng in the name of patrolling and inspecting. He had also taken on the job of settling the refugees, so he couldn’t stay in Liancheng forever.

Even the counties and districts near Liancheng, such as the areas in Dandong, Anshan, and the Liaodong Mountains that had suffered light disasters and were rich in resources, were suitable for raising silkworms. He had to personally patrol and inspect them. Furthermore, he had to personally participate in the relevant matters of assisting the local government, gentry, and rich families to settle the refugees.

With Liancheng’s example, the national policy issued by the Imperial Court, and King Yue Fei’s prestige in the North, everything went very smoothly.

Yu Youyao did not stay idle in Liancheng.

After the national policy was issued, more and more businessmen came over to look for business opportunities.

All the merchants knew that Princess Shaoyi and King Yue Fei advocated the resettlement of refugees and the introduction of foreign merchants. They had also brought a large number of supplies to help the refugees and explore the way.

At the same time, they also accumulated connections and reputation in the three provinces of Liaodong and accumulated some capital for the future. They would express their goodwill to Princess Shaoyi and King Yue Fei in passing.

The merchants had brought sincerity over, greatly alleviating the lack of supplies in the North. Yin Huaixi also returned the favor and sent a trusted military advisor from his army to contact the merchants.

Yu Youyao had originally thought that she would see a refined middle-aged scholar, but when Yin Shi led him into the house, Yu Youyao was immediately stunned.

This person had a square face and a beard. He was stocky and tall. He was wearing a greenish-gray outfit. He did not look like a strategist, but like a general who was going into battle to kill the enemy. His entire body exuded boldness and ruggedness.

As soon as he entered the house, he strode forward and slammed one knee to the ground with a bang. He lowered his head and cupped his hands. In a loud and clear voice, he said, “I’m Huang Wenxian. Greetings…” The words “Little Consort” almost rushed out of his throat. They rolled in his throat, but he swallowed them and changed them to “Princess.”

Yu Youyao couldn’t help but look at his knee. She felt pain for his knee. She really didn’t expect Huang Wenxian to be like this.

She also knew that this was the etiquette of a soldier in the army to show respect to a person.

Yin Huaixi had at least a hundred retainers, aides, strategists, and military advisors. However, those who could be sent out by Yin Huaixi were definitely the most capable and trusted people.

Therefore, although she was surprised, Yu Youyao’s reaction was not slow. She quickly stood up and walked to Huang Wenxian. She bent down and raised her hand, making a polite gesture. “Military Advisor Huang, please get up quickly…”
