After Manbao finished treating all the injured soldiers, she happily ran to find Bai Shan, "Let's go dig up some plants!"
Bai Shan was busy, as the Emperor was recently handling the cities that had been captured. He was renaming some of them, selecting officials from the court to take over these cities, and he also needed to meet with some local clan elders to show the Emperor's grace, then appoint them as local leaders or second-in-command.
After the Emperor decided on these matters, they needed to draft imperial edicts and official documents to convey them. Sometimes the Emperor couldn't remember who was who, and they had to remind him.
Working as a secretarial officer for the Emperor wasn't easy—anyone with a poor memory couldn't stay around the Emperor. Otherwise, if they couldn't answer the Emperor's questions, they would be dismissed the next day.
Despite being so busy, Bai Shan thought for a moment and said, "Wait for me until late afternoon."
