Xin Xin nodded and shook her head. She thought for a while before telling Ning Yue the exact reason.
“Our country has a record of all surnames. When we divided the fiefs back then, your uncle the emperor did not divide any land for the people with this name.”
Hearing Xin Xin’s words, Ning Yue immediately frowned. When she returned, she had to get Jiang Ying to investigate this person called Baili. No matter what, it was too strange for this person to appear here.
At this moment, Baili still did not know what Ning Yue was thinking. He returned to his residence with the seeds Ning Yue had given him.
When Yuan Hui saw Baili, he sighed heavily. They had been here for a month.
Baili returned every day without any gain. He was no longer surprised. This time, as usual, he wanted to turn around and leave. Before he could take a few steps, he was stopped by Baili.
“Emperor, take a look at this.” As he spoke, Baili took out the potato seeds Ning Yue had given him.
“Why? Are you planning to retire and farm here?” Yuan Hui looked at the potato seeds and asked jokingly.
“No, no, no. Emperor, this thing is related to the person you’re looking for.” Baili said.
When Yuan Hui heard this, he immediately panicked. “Can you be straightforward? What exactly is going on?”
Seeing Yuan Hui like this, Baili felt amused.
Ever since Yuan Hui woke up from the poison, he was different. In the past, the emperor’s personality was neither fast nor slow. No matter what he did, he was not very concerned. Now, in order to find someone, the emperor could be so anxious when facing a bag of seeds.
Baili did not think there was anything wrong. He felt that while such an emperor was decisive, he was also a little more humane.
“Emperor, don’t be anxious. Listen to me slowly.” Baili told Yuan Hui about his conversation with Ning Yue in the field.
When Yuan Hui heard this, he was extremely excited. Peanut shells as nourishment was the wisdom of modern people.
“And then? What else did this girl say? Where did this seed come from?” Yuan Hui asked.
“That girl said that her master brought the seeds back from overseas,” Baili said.
Overseas? Yuan Hui frowned. Potatoes were imported from outside, but was there such advanced navigation technology in this era?
Under the circumstances that the Great Yun Nation was not by the sea, could her master actually go overseas?
“Did you find out where this woman lives?” Yuan Hui asked.
“I only know that she lives in Laifu Village. I don’t know where she stays in the village,” Baili said.
After saying this, Baili saw that Yuan Hui was about to get angry and hurriedly explained, “There weren’t many people living in Laifu Village to begin with. It was only when the refugees from the Ning Family Village of Baiyun State came that many people lived there. This thing was planted recently, so I guess that girl should be a villager of the Ning Family Village.”
Since he already knew the direction, it was easy to investigate. Investigating known people was not difficult for Baili.
“Then hurry up and investigate! Tell me when you find out. I’m going to visit an old friend.” Yuan Hui was already very sure that Ning Yue was the person he was looking for.
Baili smiled. “I’ve already arranged for someone to investigate. I was worried that you would be anxious, so I came back to tell you the good news first.”
Just as Baili finished speaking, the guard who had been arranged to investigate returned.
“Emperor, Lord Baili, I’ve already investigated that that girl lives in the north of Laifu Village. She’s from the original Ning Family Village in Baiyun State. They fled here. It’s said that after that girl came, she led the economic development of the entire Laifu Town.”
Then, the guard briefly told Yuan Hui and Baili about Ning Yue’s contributions after coming to Laifu Village.
Baili was shocked. This girl was so amazing! She knew how to squeeze oil, brew wine, and make medicinal makeup!
Hearing the guard’s words, Yuan Hui was extremely excited. He was 100% sure that this girl was the person he was looking for.
How could ancient people have the wisdom to brew wine? There weren’t many people who knew how to squeeze oil. There was also medicinal makeup. That was something that only existed in modern times.
At the thought that this girl knew how to do all three, Yuan Hui already had a conclusion.
“Let’s go visit an old friend,” Yuan Hui said with a smile.
