Chronicle of Farming in Muxianfu

Chapter 299 Expose
Marquis of Anguo and Marquis of Weiwu are loyal to the country, teach their children well, promoted to Marquis of Anbo, Marquis of Weibo, hereditary succession, the son of Anbo has made great achievements in trying to plant new grains, rewarded ten thousand taels of silver, a hundred lands, and concurrently served as the governor of the imperial city .Kao's thorn envoy has made great contributions in protecting food, and he was transferred back to Huadu to serve as the commander of the imperial guards.The post of Kao's governor was taken over by Chu Shang, a fellow farmer.Zhang Yuanshan, Qing Ke of the Marquis of Anguo, made great achievements in planting two crops of rice, and was transferred to Nonglin Temple as a servant, full-time to promote new grains.

Then the Empress Dowager Yizhi of the harem came down again. There was a widowed female Muxian in Huawang City. With a hundred mu of land, you can enjoy the salary of the wife of the first rank.

After a series of rewards and punishments, Concubine Lan's influence was completely wiped out. Prime Minister Wei also asked for a fine for half a year due to poor supervision, saying that he was sick and closed the door. For a while, the imperial power inside and outside the court was unprecedentedly high.

Xiao Heng rushed all the way back to Kao City, sent someone to Lijia Village to deliver the letter, and entered the village early the next morning.

The ancestors of Lijia Village have been poor farmers for generations, and the most promising young man is Li San, who is the shopkeeper in the city. Not to mention a scholar, many people have never even seen an official above the seventh rank. I suddenly heard about it last night. Mrs. Xian was rewarded by the imperial court's first-rank imperial order, and she immediately rejoiced. The whole village stayed up all night, sweeping the roads all night, preparing to open the ancestral hall.

Because Mu Ai worshiped Mrs. Li as her grandmother, and entered the household registration of the village, she is considered to be a descendant of Li Siye, so this award is a major event for the entire Li family.

Early in the morning, Grandpa Li and several clan elders and Lian Fu put on the most decent silk and satin clothes, and came to invite Mu Ai to the ancestral hall in person.

Mu Ai has been well educated in modern times for many years, in fact, he didn't think too much about the reward, it's just a title, but, helplessly, the clan elders and fellow villagers, and even everyone in the mansion were very happy, so he had to ask Dong Zhi to take good care of Ouyang, and then He also changed into a solemn dress, wore high sideburns, and wore a set of precious gem jewelry, surrounded by everyone, and arrived at the gate of the ancestral hall.

Xiao Heng was also grandly welcomed to the gate of the ancestral hall by many villagers. The whole village, men, women and children, knelt down to fill the huge open space. Mu Ai led Guo Huai and the others to kneel down as well.

Seeing her frown slightly, Xiao Heng thought of her strange temper of not liking people kneeling, and he probably didn't like kneeling himself, so he quickly unfolded the golden satin decree, read it aloud, and watched everyone shouting at the Queen Mother. After being a thousand years old, he hastily rolled up Yizhi, and handed it to Muai with both hands.

A few attendants behind him also carried a plaque wrapped in golden satin and stepped forward, Guo Huai and the others hurriedly took it in fear and trepidation.

Grandpa Li loudly ordered several descendants to open the gate of the ancestral hall, and after leading the villagers to sacrifice and worship, he asked Mu Ai to put the decree and plaque in the ancestral hall for three days to comfort the spirits of the ancestors of the Li family.

Mu Ai readily agreed, and everyone in the village was so happy that they all went forward to kowtow again in turn, while taking a closer look at the appearance of Yizhi and the imperial plaque.Xiao Heng was worried that the Yizhi and the plaque would be damaged and cause unnecessary trouble, so he ordered Guo Huai to send someone to keep watch at all times before returning to the mansion with Mu Ai.

After all this tossing, it was almost noon in the sun, and Mu Ai cooked some delicious dishes by herself, and put them in the gazebo of the lotus pond. The two brothers and sisters ate and talked about things in Huadu.

Originally, Mu Ai didn't intend to ask for any rewards, but after going through many things this year, she also had to admit the benefits of power, multiple names can deter Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Heng felt a little guilty for taking credit for his sister, so Mu Ai quickly changed the topic, and the two of them talked about that Xiao Mansion and Wei Mansion were going to move back to Huadu. Although Mu Ai knew the result a long time ago, but, Still very reluctant, sighing that there is no place to go in Kao City.

Xiao Heng raised his hand and poured himself a cup of champion red, drank half of it slowly, and said with lowered eyebrows, "I don't have anything to worry about here, why don't you come and settle in Huadu with us. If you really don't like the city There are a lot of people, so it’s better to buy a small village outside the city.”

Mu Ai smiled slightly, refilled his wine glass, shook his head, and pointed to the sacred mountain not far away, "Brother, do you still remember the absolutely safe place I said last time? It's right there."

"Above? You mean the sacred mountain!" Xiao Heng opened his mouth wide in shock. He usually didn't believe the girl said that the medicinal materials and seeds were obtained from the sacred mountain. He thought it was her trying to cover up the secret technique. , I just found an excuse.After all, no one has dared to enter that sacred mountain for many years, and no one has ever come out of that mountain. Everyone in Baihua Kingdom knows that it is a place of death.Now that the girl actually said that the safe place she was looking for was on the sacred mountain, how could he not be surprised.

Mu Ai nodded, "Yes, I have sent the children to the mountain. There is a [-]-acre basin there, which is evergreen all the year round. It is very magical. But no one can go up there except me. That's why I Said it was safe there. After a few years, I have passed on the seeds I brought from my hometown and earned enough wealth for the children. I will go there to live in seclusion and feel at ease like a fairy, okay? ?”

Xiao Heng stared at the misty mountaintop for a while, raised his hand and drank the wine in the glass, and asked in a low voice, "Holiday? With whom?"

If it was a normal day, Mu Ai would definitely be able to hear the strangeness in his words, but at this moment, she was thinking about Ouyang's appearance after waking up that day, seeing the gauze on her body, he rarely asked nervously who would help He bandaged it, and for some reason, she lied to him for the first time, saying that it was inconvenient for her to do it herself, so she asked the young captain to help bandage it.Ouyang's expression at that time seemed to be relieved, so this incident took root in her heart. That tattoo must be very important to Ouyang, so important that she couldn't even see it.Secret Thirteen, what exactly does it represent?Although she still takes care of Ouyang and cares about his diet and medicine soup in every possible way, this problem is like a seed, which grows bigger and bigger under the water of curiosity...

"Brother, I want to ask you a question." Mu Ai asked softly. Xiao Heng was regretting his slip of the tongue just now. Hearing what she said, he knew she didn't hear anything, and he didn't know whether it was luck or disappointment.

"What do you want to ask, elder brother will tell you if he knows."

Mu Ai sighed softly, "Secret Thirteen..." She paused, and the next sentence, do you know what the code name is? Before asking, Xiao Heng dropped the cup in his hand in panic.

The uneasiness in her heart immediately climbed to the top, and she said it again like a demon, "Secret Thirteen."

This time Xiao Heng stood up abruptly, staring at her with fear and guilt in his eyes, it took him a long time to react, and he spoke incoherently anxiously, "Sister... believe me, I... don't know that father sent people from the secret camp to Surveillance by your side. No, I only found out a few days ago, no, it was Ouyang who reported his identity first, and I didn't know..."

"Secret Camp... Surveillance?" Four words, four very short words, but like the sharpest sharp knife in the world, showing the sharp tip, gently peeling off the sweet shell layer by layer, revealing the ugly and bitter inside the truth.Mu Ai wanted to close her eyes, cover her ears, and keep away from this cruel truth, but she couldn't stop the tattoo pattern from stirring in her heart, causing her world to collapse instantly.Pain, overwhelming, pain like a tide.

The man she mustered up all the remaining courage to accept, the man she fell in love with, the man who whispered to each other every night, the man who once said that she wanted to be with him for the rest of her life, how could she be a spy buried by her side, who would be buried by her side the moment before? Embracing her sweet talk, the next moment you will pass her words to the master without revealing?Will he show a contemptuous sneer behind her back when she is intoxicated in that kiss and that embrace?When she was guarding against other people's covetousness, he would be on the sidelines, quietly calculating how much she was worth, so that he could claim credit in front of the master?Will he act as a good show with her when she spends all her heart and money to the point of obsession?
Ridiculous, really ridiculous!It turned out that she was still wrong. Even in another time and space, love never came to her, but the hurt came as before, colder and crueler.Stupid woman, stupid woman, a stupid woman who falls down a hundred times and doesn't remember the pain.How could such a man with high martial arts skills and such an unruly and silent temperament be so downcast that he was sold into slavery?From the very beginning, it was a game, a game to see through her soft heart, see through her rotten good person...

Xiao Heng looked at the woman in front of him, and laughed with tears streaming down his face. He suddenly felt bitter in his mouth, which was worse than eating the best Coptis chinensis in the world...

Dong Zhi and Xiao An stood at the end of the bridge, looking anxiously into the gazebo, they didn't understand that the wife was chatting with the uncle, but suddenly laughed so loudly, no, it was the laugh that made them feel sad.The two looked at each other, and Dong Zhi stayed at any time to be summoned, so Xiao An ran back to the yard and called Master Ouyang.

Mu Ai looked at the man who was still dressed in black, walking towards her step by step, her tears suddenly dried up, and dried up so quickly, her eyes were unusually bright, and her eyebrows curled up with a smile like he praised in the past For the first time, with a light and slender body, she snuggled into his warm embrace during the day, regardless of other people's eyes.

Ignoring the doubt in the man's eyes at all, she gently caressed his cheek with her jade hand, exhaling a faint fragrance, "I regret that I met you back then, Ouyang, no, I should call you Mi... Thirteen!"

Ouyang's body instantly stiffened into stone, and his nightmare came true!It turned out that God still didn't hear his prayer, still refused to give her three months, refused to give him a chance to make up, and still so ruthlessly revealed the truth he tried so hard to cover up.At this moment, even though the woman was in his arms, even though he could embed her into his body with both arms, he knew very clearly that her heart was far away in the sky.

Mu Ai slowly left that embrace, carefully tidied up her messy temple hair, and smiled softly, "In this world, the two people I trust the most, one buried a spy by my side, and the other is that spy. Life, forever It’s more exciting than the story.” After speaking, he walked out of the gazebo, his back straight, like a green pine under heavy snow, or a cold plum in winter, patient and desolate...
