After being turned into cannon fodder, I made the emperor cry with anger

Di Hanxin looked at her with strange eyes: "What are you saying? It sounds like women are being bullied by men!"

Min Yiyi: "Isn't there?"

Emperor Hanxin said: "Men make achievements outside, while women take care of their husbands and children at home, each performing their own duties. What's wrong with that?"

Min Yiyi: "Then why are men superior and women inferior? Why can men have three wives and four concubines, but women can only live with one?"

Di Hanxin: "...Why? This has been like this since ancient times, how can there be a reason?"

Min Yiyi: "Why can men study, take exams, and make contributions, while women are deprived of the right to education, and are still said to be difficult to raise as a villain?"

Emperor Hanxin: "Min Yiyi..."

Min Yiyi: "Huh?"

Di Hanxin flicked his finger on her forehead: "What are you thinking about all day long?"

Min Yiyi: "Ha... It's just random thoughts! Your Majesty just thinks it's a joke."

Di Hanxin: "You are quite similar to the Imperial Master. He often says some shocking things."

Min Yiyi: "Really? What did he say?"

Di Hanxin: "For example, he said that all moral restraints in the world are the means of rulers and should not be taken too seriously. He also said that those chastity archways are not women's medals, but their shackles! You said his remarks are Doesn’t it look like you? It’s deviant!”

Min Yiyi: "...He is a sensible person."

Di Hanxin hugged her from behind and said, "Actually, I really like listening to these. It feels refreshing. Sometimes it can broaden my mind and look at problems from another angle."

Min Yiyi looked back at him in surprise.

Unexpectedly, he is quite open-minded.

You know, he is the "ruler" in the words of the national master.

"However, whether it's you or him, just say these words in front of me, don't take them out and say them." Di Hanxin said, "It's all a big deal if the scholar-bureaucrats hear it!"

Min Yiyi: "Oh..."

Di Hanxin's heart flutters as soon as he gets close to her. You turn your head and kiss her ears and cheeks. The warm and soft jade fragrance is lingering...

Min Yiyi pushed him hard: "My eldest brother and cousin are over there!"

Di Hanxin: "They don't dare to look."

Min Yiyi: "...I'm wearing a fake face!"

Di Hanxin switched to kissing her, and her mouth was real.

……

As expected, the boat arrived at the foot of the Great Wall.

From a distance, we can see many villages on both sides of the river, with various crops planted in the fields, the most common of which are watermelon fields.

There is a village not far away after landing.

There is an archway at the entrance of the village, with the characters "Shi Gong's Hometown" engraved on it. There are small prints below, which introduce the deeds of the late Shi Jing, the old minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

"Huh? This is Shi Gong's hometown!" Min Yiyi said, "He was a good friend of my grandfather, and our two families are still in contact!"

Min Zhongze said: "Shi Gong has a good tutor, and the eldest grandson was No. 8 in the second class in the previous session."

Qin Qiong: "Yes, yes! He is also my good friend!"

Di Hanxin: "Shi Lang?"

Min Zhongze nodded.

Di Hanxin: "I remember him. He was released for two years. He returned to Beijing last year and also worked in the Ministry of Household Affairs."

Min Zhongze: "It's him."

... A few people were chatting and walking towards the village. On the way, they saw watermelons of various sizes in the field, and Min Yiyi was very greedy.

There happened to be a melon shed on the side of the road, and in the shed sat an old man wearing a straw hat and smoking a cigarette. He seemed to be watching the melons to prevent them from being stolen.

Min Yiyi went over and asked bluntly: "Grandpa, does this watermelon field belong to your family?"

Old man: "Yeah."

Min Yiyi: "We are thirsty after walking, can I buy you a melon to eat?"

The old man looked sad, but he was very generous: "There are so many melons, you can just pick them! They're not worth much!"

Min Yiyi: "Where can I get it? Watermelons in the market cost three to four cents per catty! A melon is at least seven or eight catties, and can be sold for dozens of cents! We can't eat your melons in vain!"

The old man smiled bitterly: "Thirty or four cents a pound? In our case, three or four cents a pound!"

Min Yiyi: "Three cents each? This is too cheap!"

The old man entered the melon field, reached out and patted one of them, picked it off and handed it to Qin Qiong.

Qin Qiong was carrying a dagger, and he cut it open. The flesh was red and the seeds were black, with sandy pulp, and it was perfectly cooked.

A few people were eating melons, and Di Hanxin said to him: "Old man, your melons are very delicious. We just need to buy a batch of melons back home, which cost about three thousand kilograms. I wonder how you calculated the discounted price?"

Most people would be very happy when they meet a big customer while sitting on the roadside. However, the old man shook his head sadly: "Young man, I advise you not to do this business!"

Di Hanxin: "Why?"

The old man didn't say anything, just waved his hand: "After eating the melon, go back!"

Min Yiyi: "Grandpa, you have grown so many melons but refused to sell them to us, but someone has already bought them?"

Old man: "Yes! Someone will come to collect it!"

Di Hanxin: "The melons you grow are very good. If I pay a higher price than them, why don't you sell them?"

Old man: "No sale, no sale! Let's go!"

They had no choice but to leave sadly. But they didn’t go far and just discussed it on the roadside.

Min Yiyi asked: "Husband, why did you buy so many melons? Are you planning to take them back to the palace to reward the whole family?"

Di Hanxin: "This is not important."

Min Yiyi: "Then what's important?"

Di Hanxin: "The important thing is that I want to pay a high price to buy his melons, but he doesn't sell them."

Min Yiyi: "Maybe they signed a contract in advance. Some growers planted so much because someone ordered it!"

Di Hanxin looked at her with an increasingly different look: "I found that you are quite knowledgeable in general affairs!"

Min Yiyi smiled.

[I know more than a little bit about general affairs. 】

While a few people were talking, several riders on horseback came up the road. They ran to the old man and got off their horses, shouting: "Village Chief Shi!"

The old man's face dropped: "Butler Zhou."

"I've brought people to pick melons!" Steward Zhou said, "Hurry back to the village and ask people to pick melons and send them to the boat!"

The village chief said: "Steward Zhou, because Zhou Daguan is a respectable person, we manage the melons in this field with special care! They are all fed out by picking up manure and feeding it ladle by ladle! Everyone is working very hard. You see, this year's melons price……"

"The market is not good this year! The price has dropped, two cents each!" said the housekeeper that week.

"What? Two cents?" Village Chief Shi was shocked, "How can this be done? We farmers have no other income, so we just sell these melons for some money! In previous years, we paid three cents and four cents, how can it be two cents this year? Got it?"

"Didn't I tell you? The market is not good this year! Shipping prices and labor prices have also gone up!" Butler Zhou said, "It would be great if I can give you two cents, otherwise you will have to pay for all these melons." Rot in the ground.”

The old village chief gritted his teeth: "If that's the case, let it rot in the ground, we won't sell it!"
