Yun Zheng ultimately did not go to help Emperor Wen fetch the wine.

The words of a drunk person are just for listening to.

In the end, Emperor Wen and Qin Liu were so drunk that they lost all sense of reality.

After bringing the two back to the room to rest, Yun Zheng gave a few instructions to the imperial guards before leaving.

Back at the residence, Yun Zheng was incredibly frustrated.

Ye Zi came over to inquire and, upon learning the ins and outs of the situation, couldn't help but furrow her brows.

If Qin Liugan, the number one bully of the Great Qian, gets involved in this matter, the variables will increase significantly.

"What do you plan to do now?"

Ye Zi asked with some concern.

"I have no idea!"

Yun Zheng rubbed his head in frustration, "Let's assess the situation first! For now, we can only adapt as we go."

Who would have thought that such an old rogue would appear out of nowhere?

This is truly a calamity from the heavens!

Ye Zi looked at him with a mix of tears and laughter, nodding and saying, "There's no other way now."

Yun Zheng shook his head and asked again, "Do you know about the things between the old rogue and my father, the emperor?"

"I'm not sure about this."

Ye Zi shook her head and said, "If you want to know, you can ask my mother-in-law; she should know something."

"Alright!"

Yun Zheng nodded gently, perhaps there would be a chance to ask again!

Anyway, it's good to know that Father Emperor has an immense trust in that old rogue.

"After a moment of silent contemplation, Yun Zheng asked again, 'How many days are left until my wedding with Luo Yan?'"

"Ah?"

Ye Ziqiao's pretty face twitched fiercely, "You don't even know this?"

Yun Zheng smiled awkwardly, "I just didn't make a point to remember this."

"You really are something!"

Ye Zi was both angry and amused, "If Luo Yan knew that you even forgot your wedding date, she would definitely beat you until you were picking your teeth off the ground!"

After giving Yun Zheng a glare, Ye Zi finally told him that, counting today, there were only six days left until their wedding.

Is there still six days left?

Yun Zheng felt a dull headache coming on.

He now just wants to marry Shen Luoyan as soon as possible, so he can leave the imperial city early.

Staying in the imperial city any longer, who knows what other changes might occur?

After staying at the residence for a while, Yun Zheng checked the time and, seeing it was still early, took a few guards and headed towards Cat Ear Mountain.

Du Guiyuan and the others have been training the garrison soldiers over there for some time now.

He still hasn't gone to see it yet!

Just right, taking advantage of today to lazily sneak away and check on the training of the garrison troops.

As they approached the temporary military camp near Cat Ear Mountain, they heard a synchronized chorus of "Heh Ha."

In the camp, Du Guiyuan and the other two were training the garrison soldiers.

"See His Highness the Sixth!"

Upon seeing Yun Zheng arrive, the three quickly stopped their training and bowed to him.

"Don't be formal!"

Yun Zheng waved his hand, "You all continue training, I'll just watch the fun, no need to mind me."

"Yes!"

The three were given orders, instructing the guards to continue their training.

The physical fitness of these soldiers is quite good, and among them are quite a few with some martial skills. Under the strict training of Du Guiyuan and the others, although the time is not long, they have already begun to take shape.

However, their warhorses were still too few.

It was those twenty or so warhorses, with hundreds of people taking turns training on them; just looking at it made one feel pity.

Yun Zheng watched for a while, then called Du Guiyuan over.

"Is there anything I can help you with? Let's not even mention the war horses."

Yun Zheng first gave Du Guiyuan a precautionary warning to prevent him from bringing up the matter of the warhorses again.

He also wants to raise war horses!

But there's simply no way!

And yet, we haven't even left the imperial city!

One should still keep a low profile and not raise others' suspicions.

"Yes!"

Du Guiyuan said, "After these days of training, many people are injured. I wonder if His Highness could recruit one or two physicians to stay here?"

Doctor?

Yun Zheng was momentarily taken aback.

Damn!

I really forgot about this matter!

I was just thinking about getting some gear!

How can a party not have a healer?

"No problem! Leave this to me!"

Yun Zheng readily agreed and took out two thousand taels in silver notes, handing them to Du Guiyuan. "Instruct the kitchen staff to prepare better meals for everyone, ensuring there's meat at every meal!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Du Guiyuan bent down and turned back to the palace guards still training, displaying the silver note in his hand, and shouted, "All of you train well! His Highness the Sixth has instructed that your meals be improved, ensuring you have meat to eat every day!"

"Thank you, His Highness Sixth Prince!"

Everyone was overjoyed, shouting in unison.

Although the Great Qian Dynasty was relatively prosperous, ordinary families could hardly afford meat at every meal.

Having a meal with meat every three to five days is considered quite good.

Yun Zheng slightly nodded to the crowd and then called Du Guiyuan and the other two to the side.

"You train these soldiers not only to hone their physiques and combat skills but also to teach them how to lurk and launch surprise attacks. If they can ambush, then they shouldn't engage in a head-on fight!"

"Not only must we defeat the enemy, but we must do so at the smallest cost!"

"All are born of their fathers and raised by their mothers; even if one less dies, it's a good thing!"

Yun was seriously explaining to the three of them.

This is also the main purpose of his coming here.

He didn't need to worry about tempering these people's physiques and combat skills; he believed that Du Guiyuan and the other two could handle it well.

But he felt it necessary to remind them about the lurking ambushes.

"Your Highness, benevolence and righteousness!"

The three of them bent down together, and there was a hint of emotion in their eyes.

Yun Zheng chuckled silently, then waved his hand and said, "Alright, you all get back to what you were doing! The doctor will come by tomorrow noon at the latest!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

The three of them bowed again in thanks, making it feel quite awkwardly polite.

Yun Zheng turned over and mounted his horse, leaving with the guards.

The issue with the physician really needs to be resolved as soon as possible.

Not only do we need to recruit doctors, but we also need to recruit a few more!

It would be even better if we could recruit a talent who excels in both medicine and martial arts.

Moreover, the physician must not only treat their injuries and illnesses but also teach them to identify various herbs and some common methods for handling external wounds.

After all, it's basically impossible to bring a doctor along for something like a long-distance raid.

Not to mention serious injuries, some minor ones at least need to be handled by themselves.

On the way back, Yun Zheng kept thinking about this matter.

Just as Yun Zheng was lost in thought, a sudden sound of applause and cheers rang out beside him.

Looking in the direction of the sound, I saw many people gathered by the river not far away.

Yun Zheng, curious, immediately gathered with Gao He and the others.

When they walked in, he realized it was a storyteller setting up a stall to tell tales.

"The Master of Beihuan initially tried to play tricks, but our Sixth Prince figured him out on the spot. The Master of Beihuan, realizing his scheme had been exposed, spat out three liters of blood right there..."

The storyteller's tale is precisely about the matter of his two dou North Huan's master.

The storyteller vividly described the situation at the time, as if he were right there on the scene.

Yun Zheng listened, secretly amused.

The storytellers are quite exaggerated in their tales.

How could he not know that Banbu had already coughed up three liters of blood?

Amused, Yun Zheng raised his eyes to look at the nearby Anchang River.

The Anchang River was excavated during the previous dynasty; it serves both as a canal and partially as a moat.

Yun Zheng didn't know how many times he had passed through here.

But for some reason, he felt that the Anchang River today seemed much livelier than usual.

Yun Zheng was just about to ask Gao He if today was a special day when a sudden call echoed in his ears.

"Young Master Liu, Young Master Liu..."
