Chapter 293 The Imperial Envoy has arrived

Magistrate Wang started, and the surrounding villagers seemed to be stimulated, and most of them began to harvest.

Magistrate Wang invited many people, and even borrowed some garrison soldiers from General Ye, and soon the wheat on the Fang family's land was harvested, and even the ears of wheat in the field were picked back.

In comparison, Liu Xianghe's movements were slower, mainly because they hired fewer part-time and long-term workers.

When Liu Xianghe learned that Magistrate Wang had finished harvesting, he felt a little confused and said, "Find a way to invite some more day laborers."

The second housekeeper quickly fiddled with the chips and said, "No, we will lose money in this case. Although it is a little slower now, the three hundred acres of land will be harvested in four days."

Four days was too long, and Liu Xianghe couldn't wait any longer.

"Is there any way to make it faster without losing money, perhaps by selling two cows?"

The second housekeeper frowned in great distress, "Why are you buying a cow?"

Liu Xianghe opened his mouth, realized something, and patted his head irritably, "I forgot that we don't need cattle for the autumn harvest. It seems like this is the only way."

"Sir, sir, the imperial envoy is here." The Yamen servant ran over in a hurry.

Magistrate Wang stood up suddenly, "Didn't he say they would arrive in the afternoon, and shouldn't they go to the Governor's Mansion?"

Wang Sanhu saw that the Lord was still struggling with this at this time, and reminded him: "Sir, the Imperial Envoy has arrived. You'd better change your clothes quickly and go to receive him!"

"Yes, yes, someone please bring me my official uniform, hurry up."

After a lot of work, Magistrate Wang finally changed into his official uniform and rushed towards the field ridge, but only saw a carriage.

Wang Sanhu said to the man standing nearby who was obviously dressed as a servant, "Excuse me, where is the imperial envoy now?"

The boy smiled slightly and pointed to the back of the carriage.

Just when County Magistrate Wang felt that Xiao Si looked familiar, he spotted a figure out of the corner of his eye. He quickly approached him and said, "Yidu County Magistrate Wang Bo meets the imperial envoy."

"Long time no see, Lord Wang."

Magistrate Wang paused and suddenly looked up. He saw a man leaning against the window. He was wearing blue clothes, a jade belt, a snow-wearing gold crown, and a face that was shining brightly in the sun. His eyes were like lightning, and he was full of energy and upright. The bridge of his nose, his thin lips, and his handsome face.

"It turned out to be the little prince."

Wang Xie Ling's originally tense face instantly relaxed and became as smooth as satin.

King Yuzhang shook his folding fan, and on the surface was a branch of red plum, faintly carrying a quiet fragrance.

Magistrate Wang's eyes paused, "Is this your Majesty's calligraphy?"

King Yuzhang smiled faintly, his stunning appearance was enough to dazzle all living beings, "Yes, your Majesty gave it to me specially before I left the capital. If anyone dares to cause trouble for me, let this fan smash his head."

King Yuzhang smiled casually, but the movements of his hands were not gentle.

Magistrate Wang seemed to see some anticipation on his face. He didn't really want to smash other people's heads!

I remember that the first time he met King Yuzhang was on the street. At that time, he was whipping a rich boy who was riding a horse in the street with a riding whip. The rich boy was from a noble family, but he was beaten by King Yuzhang and fled all over the ground with blood. DC, scream in agony.

Later, the people from Jingzhao Mansion came, but they only captured the wealthy children riding horses in the street. King Yuzhang ate a bowl of wontons at a nearby wonton shop before leaving.I heard that he was raped by the censor the next day, but his majesty did not punish him. Instead, he punished the father and brother of the rich son and banished them from the capital.

From then on, County Magistrate Wang knew that King Yuzhang was not simple.

Everyone in the capital knew that King Yuzhang was free and easy, had a bad temper, and had an eccentric personality. What made everyone more aware was that he was quite favored by His Majesty. Even if the other royal children were the prince, prince, and princess, the emperor would still hit him if they got into trouble. However, The trouble caused by King Yuzhang, as long as he cried and held his mouth, the emperor immediately softened his heart.

To a certain extent, the person who can make His Majesty soften his heart is also very powerful.

Besides, he has been like this for so many years.

King Yuzhang looked at Magistrate Wang's tanned face, and kindly took out a folding fan from his sleeve and threw it to him. He himself blocked the fan in front of his eyes, barely able to block some of the sun.

Magistrate Wang thanked him and followed his example, holding the fan in front of his eyes, but it was of no use. He took the fan off before he had gone far.

Both sides of the road are full of people harvesting, including old people and children, and more young adults and women.

Teenagers and women were harvesting in the front, while the elderly were tied up in the back. Children carried baskets and followed behind the adults to pick up the ears of wheat that fell on the ground. The division of labor was clear and orderly.

As he walked, King Yuzhang's fair cheeks became flushed.

Magistrate Wang was afraid that if he got tanned and his majesty found out later, he would be in bad luck, so he quickly asked his subordinates for two straw hats and gave one to King Yuzhang.

King Yuzhang refused to wear it.

In his own words, what does the straw hat of his majestic King Yuzhang look like?
Magistrate Wang also felt that his status as a prince was out of place, so he asked his men to find two umbrellas.

This time King Yuzhang did not refuse.

"Your Majesty, this is the land where new wheat is grown."

At noon, the sun was like a fireball, scorching the earth mercilessly, and there was no wind, making the weather extremely hot.

When it was time for the common people and the day and long-term workers to eat, most of them gathered under the shade of the trees to drink tea and eat. Later, when the sun went down, they went to the fields to harvest.

King Yuzhang felt the hot wind blowing against his face and felt a little drowsy. He shook his head and managed to cheer himself up. He pointed to the front and said, "I came here at a high speed, not to look at these bare fields." of."

Magistrate Wang did not admit that he was too impatient. He lowered his eyes and whispered: "My lord, don't be anxious. Further ahead is Mr. Jiang's sister's land. She has planted [-] acres of new wheat this year and has not yet finished harvesting it. If the prince is not afraid of getting tired, we can go over and take a look now."

He specifically mentioned Mr. Jiang to remind King Yuzhang not to be too arrogant.

"Not tired or tired."

King Yuzhang didn't seem to hear the underlying meaning of Magistrate Wang's words. He straightened up slightly and looked at the hillside not far away, the laziness in his eyes gradually disappearing.

Liu Xianghe had already had people build a simple shack beside the wheat field. The space inside was not small, and there were two tables side by side. The second housekeeper occupied one table, and Liu Xianghe occupied another. At this time, he was squinting. Lying on the recliner, he looked at the wheat fields in the distance from time to time, with the corners of his mouth raised.

The second housekeeper kept making calculations and looked at Liu Xianghe beside him from time to time.

"My boss, I've gone to see Magistrate Wang and the harvest has been completed. However, the yield per acre cannot be calculated until it is dried, but I guess it won't be less." (End of Chapter)
