After marrying a concubine, I have the ability to read minds

Chapter 372
No one would have thought about such a sneaky life, and everyone wanted to be an upright person.

Xu Boqing knew that if he failed this time, he would have to wait another three years, three years, how many three years can a person have?

Therefore, for the past six months, he has been working hard to express his anger. He only hopes that Qiu Wei will be able to go to high school in one fell swoop this year, and he will be able to get a Jinshi in the imperial examination next year, so that their family can live a dignified life.

Gu Wanning and Ye Hanyu didn't keep guarding outside the gate of the Gongyuan like the others. It doesn't matter whether they do well in the exam or not. She just needs to pick them up before the exam is over.

After the fifth concubine moved out of the palace, she let herself go. The Zhuangzi sent news that the peanut seedlings had turned yellow and were ready to produce peanuts. She immediately asked Gu Wanning to go to the Zhuangzi to watch the tenants produce peanuts.

Gu Wanning also wanted to know how many catties of peanuts the fifth sister-in-law's farm could produce, so she packed up and followed her to the suburbs of Beijing.

The two of them arrived at the farm they had visited last time. There were more than 1000 mu of peanuts planted in the field. There were many tenants, and it took half a month before and after the crops were collected.

Because the ground is semi-sandy, when picking peanuts, you can use a pickaxe or a ox plow. Women and children can also pull them out directly, but you have to pull the ground again to avoid peanuts falling into the ground.

When Feng Xinrou arrived at the Zhuangzi, she changed into working clothes, and then took Gu Wanning to the field. Gu Wanning helplessly put a straw hat on her. When she arrived at the field, with a wave of the owner's hand, all the long-term workers who had been prepared for a long time were all gone. Take action, pull out, planer, plow, and soon pull out a large piece of peanut seedlings.

Feng Xinrou's hands were also very itchy. She bent down and shook the soil with her own hands. Unexpectedly, after shaking the soil, a large pile of white flowers had grown under a handful of peanut seedlings. Feng Xinrou counted them carefully and found that There are 32 of them, "Wow, there are so many, brother, sister, sister-in-law, is this a good harvest?"

Gu Wanning nodded: "If the peanuts in the 1000 mu of land are like this, it will definitely be a bumper harvest! When it dries up, the minimum yield per mu is estimated to be [-] catties."

Feng Xinrou was so happy that she actually began to work in the field like a long-term worker.

Gu Wanning wondered whether she would be able to straighten her slender waist if Fifth Sister-in-Law had to work for a long time to survive.

She waved her hand and asked Chunlan to come back with a small bench. There was a bamboo basket by the field, she took one at random, and she sat on the ground and picked peanuts.

"Siblings, why are you picking this up?"

Gu Wanning said: "Naturally, I have to cook some. New peanuts are the most delicious when eaten. I cook peanuts for my sister-in-law at noon." Peanuts are just wine.

She didn't pick too much, just made half a bamboo basket, and asked Chunlan to take it back to clean it, and then soak it in salt water.

Standing up straight, looking at a large field in the distance, the mood of the whole person is different, "Sister-in-law, do you want to go fishing, I will cook fish for you at noon."

Feng Xinrou originally wanted to continue working for a while, but when she heard that Gu Wanning was going fishing, she immediately quit.

Fishing is more interesting, at least her waist won't hurt so much.

"Whatever you want, just wait, I'll come right away."

The long-term workers in the field laughed sullenly, nobles are nobles, how can they bear the hardships of this labor, it didn't take a total of two quarters of an hour, and the owner couldn't support it.

……

Ganzhou.

Marquis Suyuan didn't rush out to take down Ganzhou City in half a month as requested by the emperor. General Liu's subordinates mixed with many secret works of Xirong, and some people were bought by the prince of Xirong. It took him nearly a month to get all these Pulled out.

Of course, no one can guarantee that there will be no spies from Xirong in the barracks, but the generals must have been wiped out.

Marquis Su Yuan didn't let people spread the matter about the spies. Instead, after finding out the problem, he took advantage of the spies and spread a lot of false news. Prince Xirong was really fooled. Originally, he wanted to take the opportunity to burn Daxing. Food and grass, without food and grass, morale will definitely drop, and he can go one step further and capture the next city, but what he didn't expect was that when he opened the city gate to attack Daxing's food and grass at night, he had already prepared Marquis Suyuan immediately arrested all these Xirong soldiers, and all the Daxing soldiers changed into Xirong soldiers' clothes, and lit a few piles of firewood. When Prince Xirong thought that the plan had succeeded and was secretly happy, Daxing pretended to be a Xirong soldier. The soldiers swaggered into Ganzhou City.

As soon as these soldiers entered the city, they killed all the defenders on the city gate. Among these people, they divided into an elite group and went straight to the city lord's mansion. Prince Xirong rested in the city lord's mansion. Those meticulous works all became the help of Marquis Su Yuan, and he was happily waiting for the good news to come back. Unexpectedly, the City Lord's Mansion was breached. Although Prince Xirong knew some kung fu, he fought with those who fought on the battlefield. Compared with the real elite soldiers, there is nothing comparable at all. Even if the guards around him tried their best to protect each other, they were still captured alive by Daxing's elite soldiers in the end.

Marquis Suyuan had been pinching his troops since they entered Ganzhou City. Seeing that the appointed time came, he immediately led his troops into the city. The strength of the two sides was originally about the same. The general of Xirong didn't know at first that the prince Being captured, it was only a slight disadvantage in the fight, but Xi Rong finally won Ganzhou and naturally refused to lose it easily, and the two sides fought at a stalemate.

The sound of killing in Ganzhou City was loud, and the sound lasted for nearly an hour, because there were the largest number of Western soldiers around the government office, and the mission of these people was to protect their prince. Although the elite soldiers of Daxing captured the prince, they did not dare to kill him Firstly, their clothes are easy to be attacked by their own family members, and secondly, Western soldiers may attack them when they see their prince tied up. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, they can only hide first.

It wasn't until the Xirong soldiers gradually decreased that this group of people tore off the Xirong clothes on their bodies, and joined the general with the crown prince.

When Su Yuanhou saw that Prince Xirong had really been arrested by his subordinates, he was immediately shocked. He asked the soldiers to shout "Prince Xirong has been captured" one by one, while continuing to harvest the heads of Xirong soldiers.

Xi Rong soldiers were already at a disadvantage, and when they heard that their princes had been captured alive, why should they fight?
He hurriedly oiled the soles of his feet and escaped from Ganzhou City.

In this battle, Marquis Suyuan cleverly used tricks to regain Ganzhou City, Daxing won a complete victory, and the whole Ganzhou City cheered.

Suyuanhou took the opportunity to retake the small city occupied by Xirong, and the Xirong soldiers were completely driven out of the territory of the Daxing Dynasty.

The old emperor of Xirong treasured the son of the crown prince the most. He didn't care about many soldiers who died in the defeat, but when he heard that the crown prince was captured, his claws went numb. First, he sent troops to secretly rescue the crown prince. However, Su Yuan Hou had already taken precautions. Xirong not only failed to rescue the person, but also lost a lot of hidden guards.
