Chapter 181

Meanwhile, in the modern era.

Gu Sang inexplicably shivered. She looked up at the sun in the sky.

The weather hadn't turned cold, so why did she suddenly feel a chill?

"Goddess, you should keep warm. Don't get sick, okay?"

"Yes, Goddess. I've always wanted to say this: you're dressed too scantily. You'll catch a cold."

Since Gu Sang was about to meet a professor she had previously scheduled an appointment with, she had started a livestream after getting off the car.

However, this livestream wasn't open to everyone; it was only accessible to the Plague City.

This wasn't the first time Gu Sang had given extra lessons to the Plague City. There had been two previous occasions when she had specifically visited industry experts to explain the manufacturing of weapons and tools to the Plague City residents.

Although it was already night on the other side, the people of Plague City were still standing attentively, watching her livestream. Nêww chapters will be fully updated at novelhall.com

"Today, we're going to visit a doctoral supervisor who is an expert in agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, and fishery."

These four fields were closely related to ancient life, so the ancient viewers watched with extreme attentiveness.

Gu Sang arrived at the doctoral supervisor's home in the suburbs, just in time to catch him taking a few students up the mountain to observe the planted trees.

Seeing this, Gu Sang followed the group up the mountain.

Along the way, the professor would occasionally quiz the students, asking them to identify the plants on the mountain and explain their uses.

"Come, look at this plant. It's growing very well. Look at its leaves..."

The morning sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled light on the professor as he explained to the students in a steady, unhurried tone.

"This teacher is so kind, and he knows so much. He must have many, many students."

"Wow, so even when people get old, they can still be so elegant and knowledgeable. Much better than those scholars who only spout classical phrases. At least he recognizes the plants on the mountain."

"Oh, so this grass can be used as medicine? I often have headaches, and I remember seeing this grass! We have it here too! Next time, I'll pick some and brew it in water to drink."

"So when fruit is very sour, it might not just be due to lack of sunlight. It could also be a genetic issue. Goddess, can you ask him what grafting is all about?"

The Elder Princess had already arranged for several teachers to sit at the front, taking notes on the knowledge points shared by the professor.

Some literate commoners had also brought paper and brushes, crouching on the ground to write.

All kinds of plants, fruits, and vegetables they had never seen before.

Being able to eat fresh vegetables anytime, and even eat summer foods and vegetables in winter: it was truly enviable.

They watched the other students take out bags to pick fruits, eating as they walked. The ancient viewers were all salivating.

"They look like they're enjoying it so much."

"I'm so envious of the future, being able to eat so many fruits."

Although the Elder Princess's expression didn't change much, her eyes sparkled with a peculiar light.

Tropical regions, overseas!

Dragon fruit, corn, sweet potatoes, cotton...

These things all came from overseas.

One day, she would definitely send people overseas to bring all these things back!

At this moment, Zhou Qichen squeezed through the crowd and whispered to the Elder Princess.

"Elder Princess, imperial troops have been spotted twenty miles outside the city. As far as the eye can see, it's a sea of soldiers. We can't tell exactly how many troops the imperial court has sent, but it's estimated to be no less than 150,000!"

Pei Changying had been on the throne for less than two years. The court had just stabilized due to Noble Consort Gu's influence, and there were enemy troops eyeing the borders. The vast majority of the troops were stationed at the borders.

Where did so many soldiers come from to attack the city?

The Elder Princess pondered this, her expression unchanged as she instructed, "Don't let the city residents know yet, to avoid causing panic."

"Go inform General Qin and tell him to be on alert."

"The imperial soldiers are just following orders. After all, we're all subjects of the same land. Let's be courteous first and see what the imperial court has to say. If they insist on fighting, then we'll fight."

Zhou Qichen departed to carry out his orders, while Gu Sang witnessed the scene of the Elder Princess whispering with Zhou Qichen. She turned to the Elder Princess with a questioning look in her eyes.

The Elder Princess immediately understood Gu Sang's meaning and gave a slight nod.

"Alright, that's all for today's livestream!" Gu Sang announced.

They had been streaming for several hours, which was more than enough for these people from ancient times to process for a while.

Moreover, the silhouettes of the imperial army could already be seen camping outside the city. Gu Sang decided to leave the remaining time for the Elder Princess to make arrangements.
