After telling her plan to the villagers, Li Ming started her work.

The villagers worked with their full potential and didn't give Li Ming any chance to doubt their sincerity.

For the next whole week everyone was busy. They separated the fields into three parts as per Li Ming's directions.

Firstly they ploughed the first part with the help of Li Ming's magic and completed the work only in three days.

On the fourth day, Li Ming took out bags after bags of hybrid seeds from her mansion and the villagers planted the seeds. They planted wheat, rice, maize and sugar cane in the first portion.

Li Ming had already soaked the seeds into a special potion which would increase their level of consuming spiritual energy from the air. After that everyone started watering the fields.

By end of the first week, the work in the first portion of the fields was completely done and they had planted the crops successfully.

Li Ming gave the villagers break for one day. She decided to visit the Black Jade Inn as it had already been an entire week since she had left.

When she teleported back to the inn, the environment inside of the inn was as dark and cold as possible.

She frowned and looked at the terrified people inside the main room.  That's when her gaze fell on the person who was responsible for the situation.

Of course, it was none other than the Fourth Prince!

Li Ming rubbed the tip of her nose and sighed softly.

Elder Fu saw Li Ming and came running towards her. Although he didn't say a single word, but Li Ming could read the request in his eyes.

All the people inside the main room, including Fourth Prince's guards, were nearly begging her with pitiful faces to handle the situation and save them.

Zhang Yong felt her presence behind him the moment she appeared. Although he had never seen from his own eyes but he had been informed that she could teleport without using a teleportation array.

He didn't turn behind as he saw Elder Fu running towards Li Ming from the corner of his eyes.

He had been waiting for an entire week. He had visited the inn nearly every day but he didn't get a single glance of her all this time.

Even his most powerful trackers and shadow guards couldn't find her whereabouts.

Though he could have got the information using his position from the Black Jade Inn, but he had a feeling inside him that Li Ming would not like that.

And didn't know why but he didn't want to make her unhappy.

Li Ming looked at Zhang Yong and then at the staff. She signaled all of them to leave the room quietly.

No one wasted any time and flew from the room like a demon was after them.

Li Ming looked at the Prince who had not made a single movement since she had entered the inn. She observed the peerless beauty and the long silky hair of Zhang Yong for some time. She had a strong desire to touch those rosy lips.

Zhang Yong was the most handsome man in the entire Han Empire. He was known for his high achievements in Spirit Cultivation and his sharp mind. He's also the favorite son of the Emperor.

Before Li Ming could divulged deeper into her fantasy, she was interrupted by his voice which was as sweet as honey.

Li Ming shook her head and looked at the man in front of her. She furrowed her eyebrows as she thought, 'Is this man doing some magic on me? Otherwise how can I think about him and his voice in such a way!'

When Zhang Yong didn't get a response from Li Ming, he finally turned towards her and raised his eyebrows in confusion.

Li Ming rolled her eyes and walked towards his table. She took out two cans of beer and opened their lids. She offered one to Zhang Yong, who looked puzzled but still took the can.

Zhang Yong saw Li Ming taking a sip from her beer and he did the same but the next moment he nearly cursed out loud but stopped himself.

She at least should have told him that it was going to be chilled and bitter.

He had gotten used to the rich taste of wine but what he had drank just now tasted completely different.

Li Ming saw the expression on Zhang Yong's face and laughed out loud.

"It's called beer. I thought you will prefer something bitter after making the day of my staff also bitter and uncomfortable."

Zhang Yong looked at the girl in front of him who was drinking that beer thing in pleasure. He looked at his own can. He noticed that the material from which the can was made was also something new and there were some sort of things printed on the can.

He took a long breath and decided to take another sip. After a few more sips, he finally started to relax.

"Where have you been all this week?" He asked the girl who had been sitting there quietly.

"Why do you want to know?" Li Ming said without even looking at him.

"Didn't I tell you that I want to eat those delicious food of yours? Then how can you disappear without a trace?" Zhang Yong asked with a hurtful expression.

"I'm not your servant, Your Highness." Li Ming replied softly but matter of factly.

"But I'm your Prince, you should be responsible for feeding your Prince." Zhang Yong said with a cute pout.

"....."

Li Ming was completely speechless after seeing the level of audacity of this person.

"Hah!....Why I should be responsible for feeding you? You have your own palace and your own personal cooks, who can make wonderful and delicious dishes for you anytime you want. SO, STOP BOTHERING ME!" Li Ming told the shameless person in front of her.

"Alright! I'll not ask you to cook for me everyday but you have to tell where you have been all this time." Zhang Yong asked curiously.

"Why do you care? It's none of your business. Now, if you excuse me Your Highness, I will like to focus on my Inn's business which has gone down into the gutter because of your presence." Li Ming stood up and looked at the Fourth Prince.

"I hope you can see yourself out. Have a safe trip home." She said sweetly and turned around to go and look for her coward staff.

But before she could take more than two steps, something hit her on her neck sharply and then everything went black.....
