After reconciliation, abandoned wives and cubs farm the fields

Chapter 384
In the end, we can only defend one city.

But Ding Guogong and Pei Ming wanted to attack the city, but they were unable to attack for a long time because of the guidance of an expert in the city.

Coupled with the fact that there are still diseased villages in other places, in order to control the plague in Chuzhou, Yuzhou and other places as soon as possible, Dingguogong and the others had no choice but to suppress the idea of ​​kicking King Ning and others for the time being.

Pei Ming brought some troops to help maintain local order, while Ding Guogong sat in the camp and called for battle whenever he had free time, but the other party just didn't respond.

Half a month later, Duke Ding sensed something was wrong, and immediately ordered a strong attack. After three days and three nights of hard work, he finally took the last city. However, except for Princess Ning and her daughter, King Ning was nowhere to be found.

Concubine Ning had contributed to the rescue of Murong Bo and Murong Xue, the emperor just demoted their mother and daughter to commoners, as for King Ning, he still wanted to find his whereabouts.

And the plague incident was coming to an end, so only one imperial doctor was left, and together with Gu Shenyi, he led the other folk doctors to treat the sick patients, while the other imperial doctors returned to Yanjing to report the following situation.

In addition to the plague, there is also the matter of farming. The first group of people who surrendered were arranged to repair canals and open up wasteland. Some of the latter were arranged to open up wasteland, and some were sent back to their original places. Only some were extremely vicious and participated in thanking Only those who killed their families were sent to prison for interrogation.

Because of the war, the cultivation in Yuzhou and other places was disrupted, and it was only possible to ensure that the spring plowing would not be delayed.

Due to the pressure of food, many officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs went down to the states and counties to watch the spring plowing. One of Fan Huaning and Su Yihuan went to Qingzhou and the other to Chuzhou.

The preferred seeds in Su Nanzhen's hands were also first provided to the two of them for arrangement.

When the ice and snow melted, a large amount of grain was transported one after another from Liangzhou and Yanzhou to Chuzhou and Qingzhou and other states and counties that had been devastated by the war.

Coupled with the part of the grain collected, although the price of grain has risen slightly, it will not be outraged, and the situation has stabilized, so the emperor began to settle accounts after the fall.

Everyone thought that the first one to be liquidated would be the Han family, but no, it was Xiao Baiye.

Speaking of which, Xiao Baiye was also burdened by the Xie family. The Xie family supported King Ning with real money. Whether it was out of sincerity or to save his life, it was related to King Ning.

Many of the things found in King Ning's private house had traces of Xie's family, and Xiao Baiye had also been in contact with King Ning, so the emperor would naturally not spare him.

The Xie family was exiled, and the situation of the Xiao family was better, but they were dismissed from office, their property was confiscated, and they were expelled from Yanjing.

The old lady of the Xiao family didn't expect that her daughter-in-law, whom she had chosen so many times, would be a scourge. She was blind from crying, but she was lucky enough to ask Yao Dan to forgive her and ask him to ask Su Nanzhen to save their family's lives.

Naturally, Yao Dan would not be extra merciful, and besides, they did not lose their lives. They were lucky to have survived this disaster, but they still wanted Su Nanzhen to protect their prosperity and wealth.

In fact, the emperor's punishment was considered light, and he gave Su Nanzhen some face, allowing them to leave some personal clothing. As for whether there were any private goods in the clothing, Yao Dan turned a blind eye.

It's not difficult for Su Nanzhen to guess what Mrs. Xiao wants to do. This day she stays behind closed doors, teasing the children, and Pei Songzhi rarely stays at home. After all, the two of them are easy to be grasped as life-saving straws. hold on.

Mrs. Xiao was so unwilling, she was blind and still cursing, she stopped just to ask her second son if he saw Su Nanzhen and Pei Songzhi.

The answer is naturally no, even if there is Xiao Baiye, he is too embarrassed to open his mouth again. For some reason, after losing the official, he feels relieved, and he no longer has to worry about the black yarn on his head.

Yao Dan led the people to send them out of the city. These people will never be able to step into Yanjing again in this life. Maybe their descendants may have a chance, but they are gone.

Mrs. Xiao couldn't see, but she knew that they had already left the city gate. She was not reconciled, so she sat down and cried loudly. The whole family was sad, and no one cared about the other.

The Hou's mansion is very warm, Pei Ming thinks that his granddaughter looks a bit like her grandmother, who loves the house as much as her own, and he can't wait to do everything by himself.

Pei Songzhi's own father had to give in, but fortunately, Su Nanzhen was able to control him.

Su Nanzhen can be regarded as bringing back her own daughter, but only to coax her to sleep.

The little guy does look a bit like her father, Su Nanzhen feels that he has never seen such a beautiful little doll in his life, and he will have to worry about it when he grows up.

While reading the book, Pei Songzhi occasionally turned his head to look at the mother and daughter, and smiled from time to time.

It took a while for Su Nanzhen to coax the little man to sleep. He watched Pei Songzhi look at her, and then lay straight beside his daughter, looking at her face. The daughter didn't follow her. She didn't know whether she should or not. Happy.

Seeing Pei Songzhi who crept onto the bed, Su Nanzhen fixed his eyes on his face and raised his eyebrows, "Are you free?"

"It's quite free, who would dare to make trouble at this juncture." Pei Songzhi said in a low voice.

Besides, today he wanted to raid his father-in-law's house, the emperor kindly gave him a day off.

Looking at his daughter's face, Pei Songzhi said suddenly, "Don't take your daughter out, I don't want her to be missed by other men at a young age."

Su Nanzhen gave him a blank look, and it's a little early to worry about this before he quits his milk.

"Isn't King Ning still caught?" Su Nanzhen suddenly thought of something, it might be a disaster if he keeps this person.

"Not yet." Pei Songzhi thought it was a little strange what Dandan said in the letter, he couldn't figure out the movements of King Ning.

However, if King Ning has someone who is good at helping him, it is not surprising that Eggy can’t figure it out. What’s strange is that King Ning seems to have disappeared out of thin air. Wei Guo almost searched all over and found no clues related to him.

King Ning may not be arrested and brought to justice for a day, and the emperor cannot rest easy for a day.

This matter is of great importance, and it is not their turn to take care of it for the time being.

Seeing that she was still a little curious, Pei Songzhi smiled, "Don't you still want to take that reward money?"

"Think, just think about it." Su Nanzhen said regretfully, King Ning's head is valuable.

"Then try your best to find out the whereabouts of King Ning." Pei Songzhi half-jokingly said.

"Forget it, he's a cheater, so don't take risks." Su Nanzhen thought about it seriously, the bounty is not as valuable as his life.

"Chen Guo is fighting again." Pei Songzhi said suddenly.

"Fighting again? But their spring plowing is not as early as here, and the snow fell very heavily during the Chinese New Year, which crushed many houses and trees. The food problem still exists. If they really want to fight, it shouldn't last long. "

"Yes, if there was a snowstorm in the past, the two countries would definitely fight, but now Chen Guo also needs to rely on Wei Guo, so this year it will be fine."
