Shen Qingxi thanked the old man with a smile, "Thank you, the old man."

After saying goodbye to the old man, Shen Qingxi took Nayilian and Bai Ji to the city along the road.

"Miss, Lord Lin is simply too much." Bai Ji was following the eldest princess before and was responsible for inquiring about the news, so he naturally knew a little about the officialdom. "Every year, the emperor gave Jiangnan so much food and silver, but the result..."

Although Bai Ji didn't finish her words, Shen Qingxi also understood what she meant.

Shen Qingxi sighed, "The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. This is not unreasonable. Jiangnan is far away from the capital, and the Lin family has been operating here for so many years, so its power cannot be underestimated."

In other words, Jiangnan today is simply Jiangnan of the Lin family, and it has no relationship with the Chu royal family.

But under such circumstances, the Chu family had to continue to provide money and supplies to Jiangnan. It has to be said that the royal family is really frustrated in the control of Jiangnan.

Bai Ji didn't say anything more, but followed Shen Qingxi quietly, while Na Yilian on the side blinked.

"Sister, what are you talking about?" Nayilian was a little confused about Shen Qingxi and Bai Ji, "Can you tell me?"

In Shen Qingxi's eyes, Nayilian was still a child. She smiled slightly, "You won't understand these things even if you say them, so you shouldn't ask so much."

Nayi Lian sighed softly, "I am already fifteen years old and I am no longer a child."

Although Na Yilian said this, Shen Qingxi still had no intention of telling her about Jiangnan.

"Let's go, we're going back as soon as possible." Shen Qingxi looked up at the dark clouds above her head, "We have to rush home before the rain."

When she came out, she just left a message to Chu Ye. If she didn't return, Shen Qingxi was really worried that Chu Ye would be anxious.

Seeing that Shen Qingxi did not tell her what she planned, Nayilian did not continue to talk. The three of them walked quickly towards Jiangnan City.

When Shen Qingxi and the other three entered the yard, it rained heavily.

"Where have you gone?" Chu Ye said while taking the dry cloth towel to wipe Shen Qingxi's hair, "You left a word and went out for a walk. Do you know how worried I am?"

Chu Ye, Gu Zhao and Taoist Master Xuanqing came out of the wing room, and heard Bai Kou say that Shen Qingxi took Bai Ji and Na Yilian out for a walk.

He was really anxious at that time, for fear that something would happen to Shen Qingxi here.

"I'm carrying Baiji." Shen Qingxi turned her head and smiled softly at Chu Ye, "Besides, am I back here?"

"Don't move around." Chu Ye frowned, and his tone of speaking became a little harsh because of concern. "If your hair is not dried, it is easy to get sick."

Shen Qingxi could hear that Chu Ye was angry, so she sat there honestly without moving, allowing Chu Ye to wipe her hair with a dry cloth towel.

Chu Ye, who hadn't heard Shen Qingxi speak for a long time, suddenly said, "What, do you think I won't be angry if I don't speak?"

Shen Qingxi murmured, "You are angry when you speak, and you are angry when you don't speak. Then I'd better choose not to speak, just save some effort."
