When Ying Lili saw the Duke's wife again, she was still a little... awkward.

It's really because this old lady is really a little too serious.

It's not enough to be afraid.

"Mom, do you want to hear a story?"

Ying Lili spoke with great skill.

The Duke's wife was slightly stunned and looked at the little girl in front of her calmly.

She still remembers that when she first came to the Duke's Mansion, she didn't even have much impression of this little girl.

They are all black and thin.

Not difficult to understand.

Those who could be sold into slavery had either family troubles or family difficulties.

The Duke's Mansion has strict rules and will definitely not buy those prisoners.

The slaves who work in the Duke's mansion are all people from decent families who had to sell themselves into slavery because of poverty.

Who would have thought.

How many years has it been.

The little girl in front of me has actually come this far.

A first-grade general who governs the country.

His status is almost the same as that of a Duke.

Now, for the sake of this little girl, His Majesty actually found the Duke of the country and asked her to adopt her as his adopted daughter.

"What story?" She raised her lips slightly and smiled appropriately.

Ying Lili didn't think about the other party's attitude.

Ping Bai has an adopted daughter, she is still the kind who needs to be included in the family tree.

The reason I can give you this attitude is for His Majesty's sake.

If you rush to ask people to be more affectionate to you, it's too much.

Ying Lili opened her mouth and told her a few interesting stories.

The Duke's wife listened with rapt attention, and her posture became more and more relaxed.

When it was lunch time, Ying Lili's attitude became even more intimate.

Because it was a family banquet, and there were no three obediences or four virtues in Dazhao, there was no need to eat at separate tables.

She also met the Crown Princess of the Sheng family.

A beautiful woman with a beautiful face and elegant manners.

Ying Lili thought the Crown Princess was very beautiful.

After giving birth to a child, the charm becomes even more extraordinary.

"Girl!"

The Supreme Emperor next to him smiled and said, "My eyes are almost glued to her."

Ying Lili came back to her senses, laughed dryly, and said, "...Sister-in-law is so pretty."

The crown prince's cheeks were slightly shy as she covered her lips and smiled, "My sister is also pretty."

Ying Lili waved her hand and said, "You can't boast about this. I still know whether it looks good or not."

"I have been in the Western Region for the past few years, and I have been exposed to the weather. No matter how good-looking it is, it is limited, not to mention that the foundation itself is not very good."

Rong Qingzhang smiled.

I gave her a chopstick of tender fish.

Said: "Aren't you going to the Western Region?"

"It's definitely not possible if I don't go." Ying Lili said: "I extorted money from the Western Region... ah, no, it's compensation. The compensation collected from the Western Region has now been planted. Once the planting is completed, after large-scale planting, the Western Region People’s lives will be much better.”

"And the western region has plenty of sunshine. Although the environment is harsh, I still like it because of its vast territory and magnificent scenery."

"The grapes grow well there after being moistened by the sun, and are sweeter than grapes from other regions. After being exposed to the sun for many days, they are dried into raisins, which are easy to transport and can be eaten in places far away."

"The inherent sweetness, after being exposed to the sun, will steal the water in the grapes and retain the sugar inside, making it particularly sweet."

"Our current sugar production process is troublesome, and many people cannot eat it, which is not good."

Eating sweet things makes people feel happy.

"Because of the abundant sunshine in the Western Region, other fruits can be grown, and they are all sweeter than those in other places."

"This time I led the army to put pressure on the Western Region, and they actually dared to ask Dayuan for help."

"I have to say that the top brass are all dark-hearted...well, they are all witty."

The Supreme Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly.

He nodded and said, "Well, the little girl is right. Officials have a dark heart."

Ying Lili raised her hands to cover her face and whispered: "I didn't say it, you said it."

Then he added: "My two senior brothers and General Pei are working hard to train the soldiers of the Western Region. I still don't believe how long Dayuan can protect the Western Region."

"Of course, I am not a war fanatic, but the best way to end the war is to bring the surrounding countries into the territory."

"In a long-term war, only the people below will suffer."

"So, Your Majesty, you see there are too many things going on in the Western Region. It is impossible for me to stay in Kyoto forever."

Rong Qingzhang nodded in agreement.

"There shouldn't be any fighting in the Western Territory for the time being. Do you want to go to the Southern Territory?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ying Lili's eyes light up.

"Southern Territory, go, go, go, I'll go."

Oh hoo.

It's a great place over there.

If it is conquered, and after some development, the food can be harvested at least twice or even three times a year, which can greatly alleviate the problem of hungry people in the north.

The granary must be captured.

Just now, Rong Qingzhang, who hesitated for a moment, had to make a decision.

He said: "After the wedding, you can go to the south."

"Okay!" Ying Lili nodded happily.

Immediately he reacted, "Oh, by the way, I have to write to my senior brother and General Pei after I go back and tell them about the farming issues in Lieshan City."

"Yes, and..." She suddenly stopped.

Then he scratched his head slightly embarrassed.

"Sorry, I'm on top."

The Supreme Emperor smiled and said, "What are you talking about, lice?"

Hearing this word, Ying Lili shuddered.

Although it wasn't there, I could already feel itching all over my body.

Oh yes.

Common people in this era generally have lice on their bodies.

By the way, officials in the DPRK and China also have it on their heads, right?
There is no way, the conditions are like this now.

Without gas and natural gas, water use is naturally not that convenient.

Ordinary people only take a bath once every six months or even a year. It would be strange if they don't have lice.

This thing is extremely contagious...

Wait, does your Majesty have one on his head?
No wonder the ancients liked to use combs with fine teeth.

Rong Qingzhang was silent.

He wanted to say that he didn't have it, absolutely not.

But it’s hard to say for the hundreds of officials in the DPRK.

Ying Lili, on the other hand, was already thinking about shaving her hair bald.

In this way, the lice would slip on her bald head.

"puff--"

Rong Qingzhang sprayed lightly.

Everyone looked at him and said nothing.

Shaved head?
Thanks for her thinking.

You girl, if you shave your head, do you really don’t want to see anyone anymore?
It’s not like becoming a nun.

"I heard that you asked the prefect of Lieshan City to open a school?" Sheng Huai looked at her with a half-smile.

Ying Lili sighed slightly.

Okay, okay, the vixen spoke.

There must be something in the words.

Rong Qingzhang smiled.

My cousin’s reputation here in Jiaojiao is very bad.

"Yes." Ying Lili nodded, "Oh, is the Crown Prince unwilling?"

After saying that, Ying Lili was dumbfounded.

What did she just say?
It's like a dog fighting against human power.Although it feels a little aggrieved to say that I am a dog.

This is indeed the case.

Isn't it because of Rong Qingzhang that he dared to talk to Sheng Huai like this?

"My lord, don't take it to heart, I'm just talking nonsense."

"Furthermore, Duke Dingguo's government did not recruit talented people."

"No need, really."

"That's good. With these resources, it's good to do your best to cultivate your own family."

"Why dump it on outsiders?"

"Look at several other aristocratic families who are recruiting talented people like crazy. What happened next?"

"If something goes wrong, it will be shaken off faster than anyone else."

"People who are driven by interests will eventually betray because of interests. It is human nature."

Duke Dingguo smiled and nodded.

Said: "It makes sense."

Sheng Huai said: "Will the general be driven by interests?"

At the dinner table, the atmosphere was quiet.

Everyone's eyes fell on Ying Lili.

Ying Lili was stared at so hard that her scalp went numb.

He was targeting me.

Ying Lili stomped on Sheng Huai in her heart.

I really want to give this guy a thousand-year kill.

What the hell, just asking her about such a sensitive topic.

How much are the vows in your mouth worth?

Besides, aren’t vows meant to be broken?
She is a person who can be driven by interests.

She was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze.If the people have faith and the country has strength, then young people are the best!
No amount of profit could make her betray her country and people.

Rong Qingzhang looked at her with soft eyes and said, "Cousin, Jiao Jiao loves money, but he gets it wisely and will never betray Dazhao."

Ying Lili looked at him, her eyes sparkling.

Confidant, Your Majesty, you will be my lifelong confidant.

Rong Qingzhang served her some food.

They are both close friends and husband and wife.

But, what does it mean to have five good people and four young people?
Which five are better?
Which four are there?
want to ask.

dare not.

Hold on.

After lunch, several women came to the inner room.

The Sheng family's little bag was also brought over.

Ying Lili teased the little one and told the two hostesses about the scenery of the Western Region.

It was inevitable that the two of them felt a little yearning after hearing this.

Look at the little milk bag sitting upright.

Ying Lili's hands are itchy.

He raised his hand and put it on the little guy's head, pushing him away.

After a few times, the little guy pouted his mouth and his eyes were red, ready to cry.

Ying Lili accepted the request and said, "Don't cry. Auntie will prepare delicious food for you. It's very, very, very delicious."

Little milk bag: "..."

"Dudu!"

Ying Lili raised her eyebrows, "It's aunt, not Dudu."

"Dudu!" the little milk bag insisted.

"aunt!"

"Dudu!"

"Aunt... okay, Dudu is Dudu, but I only allow you to call her until you are three years old. After that, I will be your aunt."

Next to her, the Crown Princess smiled and said, "Why is this?"

Ying Lili cheered, "Because he was no longer a three-year-old child at that time."

The two hostesses said they didn't quite understand the joke.

Ying Lili gave the two of them a brief explanation.

The two of them couldn't help laughing.

Picking up the little milk bag and smelling the smell of milk, Ying Lili liked it very much.

The Crown Princess smiled and said, "In two years, you will also be a mother."

Ying Lili's expression froze and she said, "What should I do if I suddenly feel unhappy?"

When the Duke's wife heard this, she thought it was a big deal.

He said: "This is unreasonable. You are the queen appointed by the Supreme Emperor. How can you not continue to produce heirs for the royal family?"

Ying Lili sighed: "What mother said is true, I just complain."

"It's so dangerous for a woman to give birth. It's like walking through the gates of hell."

"My master is good at caesarean surgery. If I have that day, I will make an incision in the abdomen and take out the child."

The faces of the two hostesses changed greatly after hearing this.

Especially Duke Dingguo’s face turned pale.

"You kid, how can you act like this?"

Ying Lili chuckled and said, "You are His Majesty's biological aunt. Your Majesty and I will soon become husband and wife. I only say a few such unrestrained words to you without any barriers. I would not do it with anyone else."

I have to say that this explanation made the Duke's wife very happy.

"As a family, if you speak without blocking or blocking, mother just listens."

"I won't leave you even if you give me a few words of reprimand."

The Duke's wife had complicated moods.

This adopted daughter is indeed a good girl.

"How great a woman is, that she can give birth to a human being."

"This is Nuwa."

The Crown Princess was curious and asked, "Who is Nuwa?"

Speaking of the story, Ying Lili didn't feel sleepy anymore.

"Nuwa is the goddess of creation. She is the ancestor of humanities and the righteous god who bless the country."

"Also known as Mother Earth."

Immediately, Ying Lili told the story of this goddess to the two of them.

The two of them listened in fascination, and their expressions were wonderful.

When I heard the legend of this man who cut down the four poles of Adachi, he was filled with admiration.

Later, when I heard that this woman had created human beings from a piece of earth, I suddenly understood why she called the woman Nuwa alive.

After that, they heard a very unfamiliar word.

Matriarchal clan.

The imperial concubine said: "Matriarchal clan?"

Ying Lili nodded and said: "It is an ethnic group based on maternal blood relationship."

"Nuwa is the leader of the matrilineal clan and one of the three emperors in ancient times."

The Duke's wife asked again, "Who were the three emperors in ancient times?"

Ying Lili said: "The Three Emperors do not refer to three people specifically, but the outstanding figures of the Three Emperors period."

Then, she told the two of them about the ancient ancestors from the Three Emperors period.

The two of them were stunned.

Until the sunset began to slowly set.

A maid came in from outside, saying that His Majesty was preparing to return to the palace.

Ying Lili knew it was time to leave.

The Crown Princess held her son in her arms and sent him out.

On the way, he asked curiously: "How does the general know so much?"

Ying Lili smiled and said: "I have been away from home for the past two years, and these stories come from the folk."

The Crown Princess has no doubt that he is there.

Otherwise there is no other explanation. (End of chapter)
