When she woke up in the morning, there was no one beside Lin Xiaoyue.

Li Xiao left a letter, telling her to wait for her in Daishi Village.

The feeling of parting was unbearable.

However, being busy was the best medicine to ease a sad mood.

As the math class continued and the Arithmetic Book continued to be compiled, Lin Xiaoyue quickly returned to work.

At the same time, Liu Wuji also began his next plan.

Nine days later, the Arithmetic Book was finally completed.

Liu Wuji brought the last two volumes of the Arithmetic Book to the Yan Emperor.

On the throne, Emperor Yan’s expression was a little ugly, and he seemed to be more tired than usual.

After flipping through a few pages, Emperor Yan put the two books aside.

“The content of the Arithmetic Book is very well compiled. After the ministers of the Ministry of Revenue have read it, they have already arranged for some academies in the capital to study it. The feedback from the students is also very good.”

“I am very glad that I listened to your suggestion back then.” Emperor Yan looked at Liu Wuji.

In the past two years, he had clearly felt that his physical condition had deteriorated.

Especially these two days, his spirit was even worse.

Now, the Great Yan was facing a strong enemy, and it could be said that it was in a precarious situation.

As an emperor, he did not seem to have made any achievements in his life.

Now, he was able to make the Arithmetic Book appear in his hands and pass it down through the ages.

It could also be considered his contribution to history and future generations.

Liu Wuji bowed to Emperor Yan.

“Yes, I should thank Your Highness for giving me and Yue’er a chance.” He said respectfully.

Emperor Yan waved his hand.

“Forget it. It’s also because she is capable.” There was a smile on his face.

“She has contributed greatly to the compilation of the Arithmetic Book. Ask her what she wants. I will reward her.”

Ever since he reconciled with the Imperial Advisor, he felt a little guilty towards that girl.

Now, it could be considered as making up for it.

Liu Wuji bowed to Emperor Yan again.

“There’s no need for a reward. It has been more than a month since she left the capital. Her mother misses her very much.”

“Before I came over, she even asked me to resign and return to Qingshi Town.”

After Liu Wuji finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Emperor Yan.

“I also wish to make a trip to Qingshi Town. I hope Your Highness will agree…” After saying that, he lowered his head again.

Emperor Yan’s expression darkened as he fell silent.

After a long while, he finally spoke.

“Chu Jin is a wolf with wild ambitions. The Great Yan is in danger at the moment. I need you.” He urged him to stay.

He could empathize with his longing for his daughter and his desire to go to Daishi Village.

But now, the only person he could trust and rely on in the court was the Imperial Advisor.

He could only feel at ease with the Imperial Advisor around.

Liu Wuji cupped his fists.

“The emissaries from Chu have already set off. The border passes have also received orders to prepare for the war. Everything that can be done has been arranged.”

“Moreover, 1 will only be gone for a month. I will definitely return before the new year. I won’t delay these matters.” He said in a deep voice.

Emperor Yan fell silent again. He understood what he meant.

He had specially gone to Daishi Village in advance to avoid being away from the capital during the new year. Soon after the new year, it would be the beginning of spring, which was even more crucial.

Thinking of this, Emperor Yan finally nodded.

In the afternoon.

Eunuch Hu suddenly came to the Imperial Advisor’s residence and even brought Emperor Yan’s imperial edict.

Lin Xiaoyue was awarded the title of county lord and 1,000 taels of gold because of her meritorious service in compiling the Arithmetic Book.

At the same time, the Sixth Princess, Liang Chengcai, and Mo Fei also received their own rewards.

The Sixth Princess and the others were very happy to receive the reward. They asked Lin Xiaoyue to host it and held another hot pot banquet in the Imperial Advisor’s residence to bid farewell to Lin Xiaoyue.

“Why don’t you just stay and settle down in the capital?”

“You’re the county head now. What do you want to do? If it doesn’t work, I’ll help. If we join forces, we’ll definitely become role models among the women of the capital.” The Sixth Princess said.

She was definitely the one who was most reluctant to see her leave.

After these days of contact, she really liked her.

She liked her talent, personality, culinary skills, and appearance.

If she weren’t a woman, she would definitely beg her father to bestow

them marriage. This way, she could stay with her forever.

Sigh, she really envied her husband.

That man surnamed Li was really lucky!

At this moment, Li Xiao, who had just arrived in Chu, sneezed.

Thinking that perhaps his wife, who was thousands of miles away, was thinking about him, he could not help but smile.

The Sixth Princess did not know what Li Xiao was thinking at the moment.

Otherwise, she would probably want to spit at him..
