Started to get rich after exile

Chapter 143 The prince brings the girl back from the battlefield
The neighboring country has been declining since the last queen's old age. If the new emperor is a person with world-wide ambitions, he might be able to survive for a few more years.

It's a pity that the newly appointed queen's vision is not as wide as that of her elder sister. She only focuses on small and small profits, and does not rectify the court, but withdraws the power of troops.

It is troubled internally and provokes external troubles.

Ye Juelu asked some people to inquire about it, and the news from neighboring countries was quickly reported to the emperor, who even laughed.

There is no need for them to go to war. The neighboring countries will rely on themselves to survive.

The country's veins are withering, and its vitality has been exhausted.

Ye Juelu simply didn't bother to send troops, and directly organized and trained troops on the spot, guarding the occupied city on the border of neighboring countries.

Neighboring countries tried to fight them off several times, but Ye Juelu didn't take them seriously at all.

Ye Juelu's men had strict military discipline, and even in the snowy weather, they did not stop their men's training. It was easy to beat the wastes who indulged in drunkenness and sex on the opposite side.

The foreign emperor's orders were not accepted, and the two countries did not have time to negotiate. The territorial area had already changed.

Their emperor was quite satisfied with this, but the queen of the neighboring country was probably furious.

After the queen of a neighboring country received the battle report from the front line, she was so angry that she smashed eight tea sets, six antique vases, and executed twenty palace attendants.

"Queen, please calm down! The enemy generals are brave and good at fighting, but men will have weaknesses. As the saying goes, it is difficult for a hero to be a beauty."

The queen lowered her eyes and looked at the maid and staff member kneeling at her feet. She had a vague suspicion in her heart, but she still asked: "What's your clever plan?"

The maid slowly raised her head, her bright and charming face and her unique pair of gentle aqua eyes made people fall in love with her at a glance.

"Heroes are away on war for a long time, and they feel lonely without caring people around them. What our country is most indispensable for is beautiful women. How about the Queen choose the most special one and place it next to the enemy generals. First, she can steal secrets, and second, she can take advantage of them. Blade leader.”

The Queen stretched out her hand and gently lifted her chin, "Honey trap? Then there is no one more suitable than you, Arnold. You can sing, dance, and assassinate."

"Are you willing to help me deal with the enemy in front of me?"

Arnold's eyes flashed and he kowtowed firmly, "Arnold is willing to share the Queen's worries!"

A violent storm swept across the frontier and the border between the two countries.

Snow disasters still occurred in the upper and middle three states of the frontier, despite the strict defense of the prefects Ming Lanying and Ming Langtao, but fortunately they were not serious and did not reach the point of causing refugees.

Lower Sanzhou was farther away from the center of the storm and was not greatly affected, but it was the first place where refugees appeared.

When Ming Langtao heard that refugees were the first to appear in Xia Sanzhou, he could pinch a fly between his brows.

"Let me see what kind of trash the magistrate of Xiasanzhou is."

Meng Huaisu took out the old memorial records that had been returned from previous years' newspapers and memorials.

"Whenever there is a snowstorm, the refugees from the Lower Three Prefectures are the first to run out, because if there is a snowstorm, they can be exempted from corvee for a period of time, and the prefect can also receive a pension."

Ming Langtao rolled his eyes speechlessly, "The three lower states are all exiled criminals. The superiors don't care about their life or death. It's amazing that so many refugees appear every time there is a snowstorm."

"Are we going to take care of these refugees?"

Ming Langtao thought about it and said, "Go and ask Princess Yanbei what she means. After all, the three states are also part of the fiefdom of King Yanbei."

Ming Lanying was counting the losses of the medicine shop and planned to send a batch of medicinal materials to the front line when the wind and snow eased.

Manager Wang from the front yard came over to report with a sad face, "To inform the princess, a large number of refugees have appeared in the lower three states."

"Refugees? Let the magistrates of the lower three states help and rectify the refugees! Why do you ask me?"

Ming Lanying looked at Wang Changying inexplicably. Wang Changying said hesitantly: "The princess doesn't know something. Now the three states are all exiled criminals. Every time there is a snowstorm, they are the first to rush out as refugees to avoid the corvee." , sometimes there will be trouble when it gets too big, and the superiors don’t care much about their lives and deaths. If the superiors don’t want to take care of it, then the prefect will send people to suppress it.”

With this explanation, Lan Ying remembered that her beginning in this world was in the small village of Xia Sanzhou, which was also the place of her birth and resurrection.

"It's all human life anyway. No matter what, there is a usable labor force on the fiefdom, which can bring use to the fiefdom. Don't give up on anyone unless you have to. Tell the magistrate of the next three states to set up temporary shelters and deliberately cause trouble." Then fork it out."

Wang Changying nodded and went to convey his meaning.

The wind and snow stopped for a few days, and state governments took the time to reinforce buildings and check for hidden dangers.

Ming Lanying quickly asked her mistress to deliver a message to the front line. News was important at any time, not to mention that in addition to Ye Juelu, there were also two people on the front line, He Bai and Shan Zhao, who were troublesome.

Shopkeeper Li specially waited for the snow to stop, then came to Ming Lanying to check the accounts with his account book before he felt at ease.

The two restaurants didn't make Shopkeeper Li lose his sense of proportion. What shocked him was the excessive income, and he always suspected that he had made mistakes in his accounting.

Ming Lanying didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Don't worry, Shopkeeper Li. You have lost weight due to the work in the restaurant during this period. You deserve the money."

After Ming Lanying confirmed that the accounts were fine, shopkeeper Li breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the restaurant.

Ming Lanying took the time to visit Dongxia. It was snowing outside the house. Dongxia was not in good health, so she was detained in the house and could not go out. Fortunately, she also had a quiet temper, otherwise people would be driven crazy.

As soon as Ming Lanying entered her room, she took off her fox fur and took off the hand stove. There was no one else in the room, and she even took off her coat. She was surprised that the room was too warm.

"This is warmer than my house. Meng Huaisu is really willing to do it. How much charcoal and firewood did he burn?"

The maid answered honestly, and Ming Lanying clicked her tongue twice, "It's twice as hot as my house. No wonder, aren't you hot in winter and summer?"

Dongxia shook her head and smiled sheepishly, "I'm afraid of the cold now that I'm pregnant. I just want to wear two more layers, but staying in the house with your body covered in sweat will make people burn, right?" Isn’t it a bit wasteful? Sister-in-law, why don’t I burn out the two charcoal pots...""

"Hey, hey, hey! No, just stay here peacefully!" Ming Lanying smiled and touched her slightly pregnant belly, "Now the world is big and you are the biggest, how can you waste it! As long as you don't feel uncomfortable, it's okay. It’s not that you can’t afford to burn it, I’ll have someone send you some more charcoal later. It’s going to be very cold this winter, and no one can freeze you when it’s hot.”

Dong Xia was used to being frugal and always felt uneasy. Ming Lanying managed to coax her down, "I have been raising her at home for a while and her complexion is much better. She shouldn't feel so uncomfortable now, right? Is it still serious?"

Dongxia shook her head, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I can't do anything every day, it's all making me fat."

"It's good to be fat. Your complexion is rosy and fair, which proves that your health has improved a lot. I have asked people to collect the thousand-year-old blood ginseng. It is already on the way. When it arrives, Mr. Zhao will make a medicinal stew for you."

Dongxia held her hand in shock, "This is worth a thousand taels of gold! Sister-in-law, just keep it and use it yourself. My little problem won't be a problem!"

"A thousand taels of gold? Is it so valuable? Then it should be given to you."

Ming Lanying patted her hand with a smile and said comfortingly: "Don't be so nervous. I collected it at a low price. It's not as valuable as you said. Anyway, I bought it for use. I don't need it when I'm in good health. I can't." It’s a waste, just try it for me to see if it works.”

"sister in law--"

"Okay, okay! I heard that blood ginseng has a fishy smell, so I told you because I was afraid that you would think too much. If you refuse, I won't tell you next time, and I will just let Mr. Zhao stew it for you to eat!" Dongxia lowered her head helplessly, "Sister-in-law, you spoil me like this, what should I do if you spoil me rotten?"

Ming Lanying hugged her and patted her gently, "How could she be spoiled! Our Dongxia is the best girl, sensible and smart, and will not be spoiled."

"Is it okay for Hebai to fight with Brother Ye from the front?"

Ming Lanying thought of the reply she received and shared it with her in a funny way, "Well, we didn't get into much of a fight. I almost broke them both. In the end, I asked for orders to take the team out to make military exploits and start a small stove."

"That's right! When will they come back? It's almost the Chinese New Year."

Ming Lanying scratched her head, "It should be soon, right? Ye Juelu said it will be over soon. When they come back, your men will be busy again. The recovered city still needs people to take care of it. Most of them will take care of you." The man pulled over."

Dongxia covered her mouth and chuckled, "It doesn't matter, he actually wants to do more things and earn more money."

The wind and snow stopped for a while and then started blowing hard again. Ming Lanying lost contact with the front line again, but when she thought that they would be back soon, she didn't feel so worried anymore.

Little did he know that something shocking happened among the frontline troops. The prince actually picked up a woman from the battlefield!
The two armies had just taken advantage of the wind and snow to have a fight. It was meaningless that Ye Juelu's men won the battle, and even found many treasures from the mess abandoned by the enemy.

When the soldiers were returning to camp happily, they saw a weak woman suddenly appear in front of their prince's horse.

The woman shouted loudly that she was a dancer who had been snatched away and was dragged to the front of the battle line to be used as a human shield by the inferior soldiers from the neighboring country. She finally escaped while the two sides were fighting and the scene was chaotic.

The woman knelt in front of Ye Juelu's horse and begged them to take her with them.

Anyone with a little sense knew that this woman's appearance could not be a coincidence, or even a trap, but when they saw her for the first time, all their sense was gone, leaving only soft hearts.

Then Ye Juelu brought her back.

He Bai and Shan Zhao rushed out of the camp after hearing the news. In the wind and snow, Ye Juelu was indeed followed by a graceful and charming woman.

Although He Bai has never fought in a war, he has been in the military camp for a long time and knows some tactics on the battlefield or weird encounters.

She didn't expect that her brother would be attacked, and she was furious.

"elder brother!!"

Ye Juelu approached and slapped her in the face with his hand, "You are not allowed to get close in the military camp."

The surrounding guards took a big step back, and no one dared to peek at the prince's household affairs.

He Bai stubbornly covered his arms and glared at him, "Who is the woman behind you!"

The woman bowed tremblingly to Hebai, "Slave Arnold..."

He Bai looked at her fiercely, with murderous intent, "Who asked you this? Shut up!"

Shan Zhao cupped his fists and saluted Ye Juelu, looking at the bright and charming woman warily.

He had seen a lot of beauty traps at the border before. It was undeniable that the woman in front of him was indeed beautiful, but it was not enough to make him lost, let alone to make Ye Juelu obsessed with it.

"My lord, did you pick this up? What is its use?"

Ye Juelu hummed, "She's a dancer, hurry up and deliver it to the princess."

He Bai and Shan Zhao were stunned, "Huh?"

Arnold, who was following Ye Juelu, was also stunned. Who would he send her to?

He Bai pointed at Ye Juelu in disbelief, "Are you going to give this dancing girl to your sister-in-law to disgust her!? Brother! I didn't expect you to be this kind of person! Just say you don't love her if you are such a good person. I don’t love you anymore! You’re disgusting by sending me away! You superficial and sentimental stinky man! I’m not done with you anymore, I’m going to take my sister-in-law away!”

Ye Juelu's temples twitched when she heard this. He suppressed his anger and held her down with one hand as she tried to use Qing Gong to escape.

"Who told you? You jump to conclusions before you understand the matter clearly. Go back and stand on your head for three hours! Your sister-in-law is still your sister-in-law, don't give me any nonsense!"

Shan Zhao glanced at the reserved Arnold, "Then what does the prince mean by sending her to the princess?"

As soon as Ye Juelu raised his hand, a bodyguard came forward to take Arnold down to rest.

After everyone left, Ye Juelu said: "The fine work of the neighboring country will cause trouble if left in the military camp. Send it to your sister-in-law to relieve her boredom."

"I'm sorry, brother, I wrongly blamed you. I thought you accepted her superficially just because of her face." He Bai scratched his head, "Are you really going to give it back to your sister-in-law? My sister-in-law is powerless! "

Ye Juelu glanced at her sideways and asked Shan Zhao, "What did you feel when you first saw her just now?"

Shan Zhao thought for a while, "My heart beats faster, I want to get close to her."

"Hey!" He Bai stayed away from him in disgust.

Shan Zhao pulled her over and put their arms around each other, "But I quickly came to my senses because she was not my type! My heart beat faster because I saw her eyes, which were like water. The blue color is very weird!”

Ye Juelu nodded, "There are mostly single men in the military camp. Ordinary women don't have much, but they were stunned when they saw her for the first time. This person cannot stay in the military camp, but the fine work sent by the neighboring country cannot be It will be wasted once it is investigated and exploited.”

He Bai raised his hand to scold Shan Zhao, "Brother, aren't you afraid of what she will do to your sister-in-law?"

Ye Juelu raised his lips and smiled slightly, "Your sister-in-law is protected by five secret guards, not to mention she has the intuition of a beast."

He Bai's little brain worked for a rare moment, "What if she wants to follow you? Are you just going to send her to your sister-in-law?"

Ye Juelu put one hand on the long knife on his waist, "People are in our territory, so naturally we have the final say."

Even if she approached her with purpose, it was none of his business. It was his business whether to let her approach her or not. He was a man with a wife, and not all cats and dogs could be around him.

He Bai silently gave a thumbs up, "Okay, you're awesome and you have the final say."

Arnold was taken to Ye Juelu's camp to rest by his personal guards. He was knocked unconscious and tied up before he could move.

When he opened his eyes again, he had changed places. Looking at the majestic gate of Yanbei Prince's Mansion, everyone in Annuo was dumbfounded.

Then she heard the guard escorting her striding in with her hand in hand, and yelling at the top of her lungs as she entered the main hall of the front yard.

"Princess! Your Majesty has brought you a beautiful girl from the battlefield!"

Ming Lanying, who came out upon hearing the sound, paused in her steps and raised her eyebrows. Aunt Cai and the two stewards behind her looked pale.
