Reborn under the White Mountain

Chapter 245
Everyone in the capital was looking for Yuxian everywhere. The guard at the south gate reported that there was a boy in his teens who left the city before the gate was closed, so everyone hurried to the south to look for her.But Yuxian just walks freely without any rules.So these people did not find Yu Xian.Haoyu was going crazy in the capital, but there was still no news of Yuxian.

The emperor announced his decree in the court hall the next day, granting Tong Yunsong the title of Zheng Guogong, from Yipin, three thousand households in the food town, and another four thousand mu of fertile land.Mrs. Fang is Yun Song's wife, so naturally she is Mrs. Zheng Guo, and Mrs. Wu is the Queen's adoptive mother, who is also named Mrs. Guo.In addition, Junfeng, Junxuan, Junhuang, Boyuan, and Bochao all went to Beijing to be the prince's companions, and Yuan Qingyun was also named the prince's tutor.For a while, there were many discussions in the court, and all the ministers, as well as several princes and county kings, all expressed their opposition.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair, looked at the officials below, and listened to their discussions with a look of impatience. "It's all over? Is there anything else to say?"

A man in his 30s stood out from the bottom, wearing the python robe worn by the prince, "Your Majesty's move is not right, this Tong family is just a rural grasslander, and they have not made great achievements in the court and society, how can they be named the Duke of the State? In this way, what kind of rewards should these meritorious officials give to the court?" This person is the emperor's younger brother, but his biological mother is a palace lady, and her family background is not high, so after knowing that the throne is hopeless, she quietly did not participate in it. Come to the dispute over the heir.After the new emperor came to the throne, he was made a prince, but he had no land and lived in the capital.

The ministers next to him all agreed, and the left minister also stood up, "Your Majesty, what the sixth prince said is that the Tong family is really not suitable for being a duke, and a county uncle would be good enough." The right minister also came out to agree.

The emperor glanced at the officials below, "No great merit? What kind of great merit? The Tong family raised Haoyu for ten years, raised Haoyu to adulthood, and taught him to practice literature and martial arts. That's why he is the crown prince of Cangyu today. If there was no Tong family, the prince would not know where he is now, why? This is not a great contribution to the country?" The emperor sneered, "So the royal family is so ungrateful? No wonder people say that the Tian family is so ungrateful. No relatives, sure enough."

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent. The crown prince is smart and capable, with both civil and military skills, and is a rare candidate for the position.But all of this was not cultivated by the royal family, but by the Tong family.So from this point of view, the Tong family has indeed made great contributions to the court.Now it is clear that the emperor is against Tong's family, if he continues to oppose, His Majesty the emperor may kill someone again.This emperor is not the same as the kings of previous dynasties.He was already rebellious and rebellious, and he lived in the Northwest Military Camp for 15 years.Fundamentally speaking, he is a soldier, not an emperor, and he simply disdains those emperor's tricks.So as long as it doesn't follow his heart, I'm afraid he will be pulled out and beheaded. For the sake of his head, it's better not to talk about it.

For a while, there was no sound in the court hall.The emperor looked at it, "There is no movement? Well, Cao Aiqing, I will trouble you to go to Yanjiang Village to announce the decree for me to express my gratitude."

Next, Cao Wenxiu hurried out to receive the decree, "I obey the decree." Cao Wenxiu was so happy, the Tong family won this award, who would dare to bully the Tong family again in the future?With such an identity, there will be less resistance to the marriage between Yuxian and the prince in the future.

The emperor looked at all the ministers, "My dearest ministers, is there anything else you want to report? If not, I will retire from the court."

Several ministers below reported some recent major events, and the monarchs and ministers discussed for a long time together.

After Cao Wenxiu left the court, he hurried to find Jun Ye, who wanted to go to Yanjiang Village with Jun Ye.After discussing things such as the time of departure, the two went back home.

Junye didn't rush back to the mansion, but went to Fang's mansion first.Fang Xin went to Shenzhou, Han Xuehui had not given birth to the child for two months, Wu's helped take care of the child and lived in the capital all the time.When Jun Ye left, the eunuch who had just announced the decree had just left.Junye went to the mansion to meet Mrs. Wu, "Grandmother, congratulations to grandma, she is now the wife of Yipin Gaoming."

Wu sighed, "When I first recognized Rong'er, I felt that this child was pitiful and had a temper with me. How could I have thought that she would have such a past? Now that Rong'er has gone, I have been named the wife of some country, Grandma would rather not have this order, but only want my Rong'er to come back to life." As she spoke, she shed tears.

Xuehui next to her hurriedly persuaded her, and Junye also stepped forward to persuade her, and the old lady finally stopped crying. "Okay, I'm just feeling sad for a while. It's a good thing that both your parents have been rewarded now. Your brothers have become the prince's companions, and their achievements in the future will not be small. This is also good. In the future, Yu Xian is married to Haoyu, and her natal family can support her."

Junye said that he was going back to Yanjiang Village, and Mrs. Wu nodded after listening. "Go back and have a look. Xiaotong is about to give birth. Although it's not the first time, it's better for you as a husband to stay by your side. When the children are older, you can bring them to the capital. Come here, family, it’s not good to go east and west like this.”

Jun Ye nodded and agreed, "Hey, grandma, I think so too. Xiaotong mother and son, no matter what, they have to stay with me. In fact, I don't want to be an official in the capital at all. After all those firearms have been made, I'll go back to Yanjiang Village, that's my home. I'll just stay in this capital for three to five years."

Xue Hui laughed while listening, "Jun Ye, other people want to come to the capital with their heads sharpened, but you still don't want to. This matter is really not up to you. It depends on the emperor. Arrange for you, if you continue to develop other things, you will not be able to go anywhere, just stay in the capital."

Junye smiled wryly, and said nothing more.After several people talked for a while, Junye came out of Fangfu and went back to prepare things.He didn't dare to mention Yuxian's departure at all, for fear that Mrs. Wu would be worried.

Junye and Cao Wenxiu made an appointment for the next day, that is, the eighth day of August, to go to Yanjiang Village.Along the way, everyone hurried back, and it took eight days to reach Yanjiang Village.

August is the season of autumn harvest, and the Tong family is still busy.Now the Tong family has more than 1000 mu of fertile land, and the land is full of busy people.Tong Yunsong still practiced himself and went to work in the field in person, while Junxuan, Junhuang, Boyuan and Bochao also rushed back at this time to help with the autumn harvest.The servants in the family are all harvesting in the field, which is a scene of a bumper harvest.

Fang took the girls and daughters-in-law of the family, carrying water and some dry food, and sent them to the field. "Let's take a rest, come here to drink some water and eat some dry food. I am the most tired of harvesting land, so I have to eat something for cushioning." When the workers saw that the head grandmother came to deliver water, they quickly put down their hands sickle, came to the ground.The daughters-in-law hurriedly brought water to these people. These people had all done half the afternoon's work, and they were indeed tired and thirsty. They brought water and drank it.

Yun Song also came over, "This year's grain is good, and it's another bumper year." As a farmer, this is the happiest time.

Fang also laughed, "It's a pity that Yuxian is not at home. She likes to watch the lively scenes. I don't know how she is doing in the capital? Do you miss home?" Fang's most worried thing is of course her daughter .

"Don't worry, Jun Ye and Jun Wei are all in the capital, as well as our mother, Xue Hui, and Fang Yun. How can Yuxian be bad? Besides, isn't there Haoyu? He won't let people bully Yuxian Yes." Yun Song persuaded his wife.

Mrs. Fang nodded, "How about the ginseng this year, shouldn't it be time to start? Our stall is getting bigger and bigger, and it's really tiring for you. This year, Gastrodia elata should be distributed to the villagers for planting. Not only our family, but you must be exhausted?"

Yuxian finally researched the method of cultivating Armillaria armillaria the year before last, and the fungus sticks produced are very good, and the yield of Gastrodia elata is much higher than before.Tong's family planned to let everyone in the village grow Gastrodia elata. After all, the demand for this thing is still very high.The villagers of Yanjiang Village and Xijiang Village have followed Tong's family all these years and have made a lot of money.

Now the Tong family has delegated the breeding of some animals to each household. When the villagers raise those animals, they will be recycled by the Tong family.The prices offered by Tong's family were higher than those charged by hawkers outside, so no one sold the raised animals to outsiders.People in the two villages respect the Tong family very much. Although those who were jealous of the Tong family in the past didn't know what they were thinking in their hearts, they didn't dare to express anything on the surface.

After hearing what his wife said, Yun Song smiled and said: "No, no matter how capable we are, we can't come here so much. Teach the villagers how to grow these things, and we only need to process them. It's no better than us It is less labor-intensive to grow by yourself. I think in a few years, when the yield of ginseng seeds is higher, we can also teach this to the big guys. These things are hidden and will never be made. Big." This is what Yuxian told Yun Song before leaving, an industry can only be competitive if it becomes bigger.After all, the Tong family has limited manpower. If they want to grow bigger, they have to mobilize the whole village, or even neighboring villages, to achieve better development.

The workers drank water and ate some dry food, and then went to work in the fields.Seeing that everyone started working, Yun Song said to Fang, "You should go back too. Xiaotong is about to give birth, so go back and watch. Jun Ye is not at home, so we need to have more snacks. When the child is a year old , let them all go to the capital."

The husband and wife were talking, when Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi came running from a distance, "Father, Mother, my eldest brother is back, and he has the imperial court's order."
