“Besides,” the NPC snorted, “the military doctor didn’t even confirm that the soldiers got smallpox. How did you know?”

The spy refused to give up. “What if the illness spreads? Should we innocent people die with them? They don’t even let us discuss it. They clearly have a guilty conscience!”

Xiaoxiao’s lips moved slightly, and the NPC said, “Aiyo, your idea is too dangerous. You can’t spread it. The Third Prince is clearly saving us. Think about it. If there’s a suspected ‘smallpox’ in the city and the high-ranking officials in the Imperial Capital happen to have the same thoughts as you, then the lives of our city’s residents…”

Many people’s faces turned pale. They no longer resisted the strict orders of the soldiers to not discuss smallpox.

The NPC said slowly, “The Third Prince immediately asked all the patients to stay in the courtyard. In order not to implicate others, the soldiers never stepped out of the door. There are even doctors who are not afraid of death who treat them wholeheartedly. Although we can’t help much, we shouldn’t make a fuss like this brother and make the people panic.”

That person still wanted to speak, but he realized that his mouth seemed to be out of his control. He closed it tightly and could not make a sound.

The NPC suddenly thought of something. “Ah, right. I heard that the Xiongnu people have the habit of secretly sending spies to infiltrate. You look strange. First, you slandered our Great Xia’s commander-in-chief, then you instigated us to discuss an unconfirmed illness. What’s more, you even maliciously sowed discord between the Third Prince and the Crown Prince. What are your intentions?”

Suspicion fell on him like a blade, but this hidden pillar just couldn’t say anything to explain. He could only hold it in until his forehead was covered in sweat. Coincidentally, at this moment, the officer appeared and was immediately attracted by the crowd. “What’s wrong? What happened?

The NPC cupped his hands and moved aside with a serious expression. “Official, there seems to be a spy from Xiongnu!”

After this matter subsided, Xiaoxiao arranged for all the NPCs in the space to be mobilized and help the soldiers remove the Crown Prince’s spies one by one.

Rong Yan had long discovered that someone was causing trouble in the city, but he did not expect that the matter would be perfectly resolved before he could have a headache. After catching a few troublemakers in a row, he followed the clues and discovered the Crown Prince’s intentions.

“Master, is His Highness the Crown Prince afraid that you have too much prestige in the army and will overshadow him?”

At this moment, Rong Yan suspected even more that the Crown Prince’s “late arrival” was on purpose. He might as well go all out and confirm the identities of the few “Xiongnu spies” who had already been confirmed.

After that, as long as someone spread rumors and tried to control the hearts of the people, before the officials could discover any clues, the commoners would already stare at these people suspiciously and take the initiative to report them.

“However, it’s strange. These people should be carefully selected talents. Why didn’t they say anything to defend themselves at the critical moment?

Rong Yan couldn’t figure it out either. He could only think that they had a guilty conscience and were at a loss for words.

Other than dealing with the Crown Prince’s secret spies, Xiaoxiao also walked around the military camp. She took turns to increase the sleeping time for the soldiers in the dead of night. Under the effect of the space, she could treat a day as 23 days. She ran around purely to strengthen her body, and her mental state was not affected at all.

At the same time, she went to the field where green seedlings had already grown and changed some space soil.

The seedlings’ growth was gratifying. Not to mention Xiaoxiao, even the commoners who originally came to work for food were looking at them eagerly every day. One moment, they were afraid that the seedlings would be exposed to the sun, and the next moment, they were worried that they would dry out. If Rong Yarns people did not strictly follow the precautions Xiaoxiao gave them, they might have been drowned by these worried commoners.

For the last trip, Xiaoxiao went to the big kitchen. After many days of her guidance, even if she was not around, the standard of the food was guaranteed. No one would let the soldiers starve in order to save food. As for the taste, although it could not be compared to what Xiaoxiao made herself, with the semi-finished seasonings she left behind and her previous unreserved explanation, the culinary skills of everyone in the kitchen were also improving day by day.

When she left in satisfaction, she vaguely heard someone sigh behind her. “Fortunately, Miss Xiaoxiao left behind a lot of seasonings previously, and they were all pre-mixed. Otherwise, we would have been scolded by the deputy generals for letting them eat pig food…”

After finishing all the trivial matters, Xiaoxiao returned to the quarantine courtyard. This semi-quarantine state was actually what she wanted. Even without the push from the Crown Prince’s advisor, she would still think of a way to enter. There were two reasons. Firstly, she had to be close to them to have a chance to help treat the illness. Secondly, after coming to the military camp, she was almost under everyone’s noses and did not even have the chance to go to the space to do her own things, such as brewing wine.

High concentrations of alcohol could be used to kill bacteria and disinfect wounds, and it could also prevent wound infections. However, alcohol was even scarcer than food at the border. Even if they could find it and were willing to use it, the quantity was far from enough.

It was not difficult for Xiaoxiao to brew wine. Now that she had the NPC projection function, it was also justifiable for her to take out the brewed wine. She would do it as she pleased. She would soak the sorghum in cold water for 24 hours and change the water every six hours. Then, she would steam the sorghum until it bloomed and then dry it. When the temperature of the sorghum rice fell between 25 to 35 degrees Celsius, she would mix the wine into the rice and place it in the bucket. After sealing it and fermenting it for about 10 days, she would obtain transparent wine.

At this moment, she obtained the first bottle of wine. The sorghum dregs after the first bottle of wine was distilled would be taken out of the pot, cooled with grain shells, and added to the wine song to ferment for 12 days. Then, she would obtain the more mellow and pure second bottle of wine.

During this distillation process, the alcohol flowed out. The alcohol concentration that was distilled first was more than 80%. According to the need, Xiaoxiao made them into edible white wine and high-level alcohol respectively and sealed them for use.

Of course, the time measured during the brewing process was natural speed. With the help of the space, she got what she wanted in less than two days. Then, taking advantage of the night, Xiaoxiao used the exit positioning function of the space to leave the camp without anyone knowing and arrived at a cave.

She waved her hand, and in the blink of an eye, 10 NPCs in uniform clothes appeared in the cave. Immediately after, a pile of wine jars and rice bags filled with food appeared out of thin air.

It was also at this moment that Rong Yan received a letter signed “Yuan”. There was not much content in the letter, only one sentence: “Same place.” However, this sentence made Rong Yan immediately put aside other less important matters and quickly choose someone to go to the cave he had been to once. When they arrived, the NPCs had yet to leave. Rong Yan took out the token that Xiaoxiao had given him and was actually a little nervous. What if they didn’t admit it?

Fortunately, the NPCs stared at Rong Yan’s face for a while before making way. Someone asked in a daze, “Is there no need for Miss to come personally?”

One of the NPCs smiled. “It’s fine. Miss said last time that this person is indistinguishable from her.”

Rong Yan’s heart beat even faster, and the smile on his face widened.

Yun San couldn’t help but ask curiously, “What if someone else comes with a token?”

The NPC narrowed his eyes and blew on the lighter at his waist. “Then they won’t get anything..”
