After rebirth, the eldest princess ascended the throne by barrage

Chapter 89
Shuiyun fanned Shen Changan, but it didn't help at all, it was still hot.

[Zai Zai, why don't you let Miss Shuiyun go out to ride a horse, and I'll throw you a small fan over there? 】

Shen Chang'an also thought about it, but Shuiyun had an old illness and couldn't exercise vigorously, so he prepared a carriage at that time, who knew it would be so stuffy here!
At first, Shen Changan could bear it, but later she let Shuiyun stay in the carriage and went out to ride the horse by herself.

She didn't know how to ride, but Xiao Gu was willing to teach her, and the two of them ran away without a trace.

The horse that Gu Qichi rides is three years old this year, and it is an adult baby. Gu Qichi has cultivated a relationship with it since birth. Now, one person and one horse cooperate tacitly.

Riding a galloping horse is a joy that Shen Changan has never experienced. In his previous life, he almost never left the palace, and was always trapped in that boxy world, as narrow as a bird in a cage.

In this life, she has not only been to Yuzhou, but also will soon arrive in Yangzhou, which is far away from the capital, and she has traveled thousands of miles.

The horse ran and slowed down, and finally walked, chewing a handful of tender grass leisurely from time to time.

Shen Changan touched the mane on the top of the horse's head and asked, "What's its name?"

"Laba," Gu Qichi explained, "it was born on the day of Laba Festival."

Ah this.

Shen Chang'an had only one thought, fortunately her third sister was not named Laba, or they would have the same name.

Laba hissed excitedly when he heard its name.

Gu Qichi turned over and got off the horse, leaving Shen Changan alone on the horse. He let Shen Changan try to ride alone, and he protected her below.

In fact, it seemed that Gu Qichi was no longer needed. Laba was spiritual and obedient. He seemed to realize that Shen Changan was a beginner, so he walked slowly at the beginning, and then slowly accelerated.

After realizing that Shen Changan was afraid, he would slow down and lead her to walk slowly to see the scenery.

Gu Qichi is useless below, um, quite redundant.

Gu Qichi: So?

Who wouldn't love an obedient cub?
After Shen Changan got used to it, Laba took her to have fun, and Gu Qichi chased after her in pain.

It is said that girls are extroverted, this is true, the girl Laba is usually very close to him, but now that she sees her beautiful sister, she ignores her master.

Also, that's his fiancee!
The sad Gu Shizi lost all his men and horses. If the large army hadn't arrived in time, he would have been on his way.

Before the chariots and horses arrived at a small village called Cuishan Village, because it was getting late and it was not safe to travel, the weather forecast given by Xiaoyi predicted that there would be rain tonight, so Shen Changan decided to spend the night in this village.

The village is not big, and in the evening, smoke from the kitchen is coming out of the chimney, and there are seven or eight children playing in the mud at the entrance of the village.

The imperial army led by Mo Tan was dressed in the clothes of the guards, but they were tall and burly, and looked a bit fierce. When the children saw this group of strangers, they stopped playing with mud and stood up to look at them vigilantly.

Xiao Dezi went over with a smile, and gave the caramel that he had prepared to the oldest boy.

The boy swallowed, but he didn't answer. Xiao Dezi didn't force it, "Brother, we are passers-by. It's getting late, and I want to stay overnight in your village. Could you take me to the village chief?"

"My grandfather is the village chief," the boy said, "Come with me."

Xiao Dezi looked kind, the boy relaxed his vigilance and took them to his house.

There were quite a lot of people in the group. On the way to the village head's house, many people came out and asked the boy who they were. Before the boy could answer, his companions began to talk about it.

There were very few strangers in the village, and Shen Changan and his group looked like wealthy households, which attracted many people's attention.

The house of the village chief's house is better than that of ordinary villagers, but it is also a yellow mud house, but the roof is made of tiles instead of straw.

The village head is an old man over half a century old. When he heard that they wanted to stay overnight, he arranged for his sons and daughters-in-law to clean up the house.

They couldn't live in their house, so the village head found a few more houses, and finally settled Shen Chang'an and his party.

The village head's house had already cooked rice, and Shen Chang'an saw that it was made sticky from rice bran and wild vegetables, and there was also a small plate of dark pickled vegetables.

There was some rice porridge boiled in a small earthen pot for the youngest grandson of the village chief. The child was only two months old, and his mother had no milk.

Shen Changan's eyes were sour, and he was puzzled, it's been so long, and the potatoes haven't been passed yet?
The village head wanted to invite them over for dinner, but when he saw that the guards were all clean and tidy, he backed down.

Shen Changan took the initiative to talk to him: "Can the village chief lend us a pot?"

The village head let out a hey, and asked the eldest daughter-in-law to wash the pot. Liuli and Shuiyun went to help, and then took out the rice to wash the rice for cooking.

The adults in the family didn't come back, and the children didn't come to the table to eat. Looking at the white rice that Liuli brought out, they swallowed greedily.

The village chief felt ashamed, but Chief Shen pretended not to see it. After asking the village chief for permission, he asked Mo Tan to take someone to the roof to repair the damage.

"Girl, where are you from? Where are you going? It's been raining these days, so I'm afraid it's hard to hurry."

The village head could see that Shen Chang'an was the leader of the team, so he chatted with her for a while, and when he heard her say that she came from Chang'an City, the village head became more and more embarrassed.

"Village Chief, you also know that we came from Chang'an. Chang'an City has a kind of divine food, with a yield of more than 3000 catties per mu. The emperor ordered it to be spread to every place in Dajin. Why don't you have it here?"

"But it hasn't come yet?"

The village chief was not surprised when he heard the word "sacred grain", but smiled wryly, "The girl doesn't know something. When I went to the county seat, I heard about the divine grain. I thought about buying the seeds back and planting them in the village. Although our village is all Susukida, the yield of the divine grain is high. Even if it is only half of the output, it can still be half full."

"But the county magistrate has said that we untouchables can't grow it. If we are found to have planted it privately, it is a trivial matter to lose money, and we are afraid of losing our lives."

"If you want to eat, you can only go to the stall set up by the government to buy it."

"It's too expensive. How can farmers like us afford it? The price of one catty of potatoes can be exchanged for two catties of rice bran..."

Shen Changan clenched her fist subconsciously, and then let it go quickly. She comforted the village chief and said, "When we were doing business in Chang'an City, we heard that the current emperor has ordered officials not to monopolize the divine food. If this happens here, the imperial court will not ignore it. You just wait."

The village chief smiled wryly and didn't speak.

Liuli's meal was ready, and the adults in the village chief's family also came back. Several dark men looked at the glamorous group of people, and their hands and feet felt awkward.

Shen Chang'an asked Liuli to take the cooked porridge to the room they borrowed, and she stayed and said a few words to the village chief.
