The wealth of rebirth is deep in the mountains

Chapter 339

This steward is Chen Xin's confidant who was selected the year before last. He is only [-] years old. He is very smart and can wink. Since he took over the business route from Kyoto to the grassland, he has been conscientious and has not had any problems.Especially every time the Prairie King sent something from the capital, he could always deliver it to the palace intact.

Xiaomi occasionally summoned him to ask a few questions about the prairie. It stands to reason that he should not be nervous when entering the palace again, but this time he followed a hundred prairie warriors. He was in a hurry all the way, consciously causing trouble for his master, so, Almost as soon as he entered the palace door, he knelt down.

"The empress is a thousand years old, a thousand years old."

The prairie warrior was quite courageous, he carefully looked at Xiaomi who was wearing a sky blue embroidered flying phoenix dress with a phoenix hairpin on his head, and then knelt down on one knee.

"Batu, the warrior commander in front of the Prairie King's Tent, sees the Great Yuan Empress."

Xiaomi was familiar with the manager, he waved his hand to signal him to get up, and finally raised his hand to help Batu.

Seeing this, the steward became a little nervous. Although it seemed that the empress treated him very casually, this casualness was usually only his own.

When Batu got up, he just blocked the sunlight coming in from the door, making him look taller and stronger.He habitually supported his waist with his right hand, but it was empty, and only then remembered that the saber was confiscated in front of the palace gate.So he frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Xiaomi saw it, but didn't mention it, and asked the steward instead.

"Is this trip to the grassland going well?"

"Thanks to your mother's blessings, the trip went very smoothly. I heard that the villain was looking for medicinal materials for my mother. The herdsmen dragged the villain into the tent and took out the stock. They were very enthusiastic. The villain also gave more tea bricks and Salt in return, absolutely did not treat them badly."

"That's good. Life in the grasslands is not easy. Naturally, we don't have any shortage of tea bricks and salt here. It's better to give more. But it shouldn't be too much. If the price is disturbed, the rest of the caravans will be difficult to trade."

Xiaomi nodded, and praised a few more words, "You have worked hard on this journey, and the Cordyceps is very useful in this palace. You will go down and hand it over to Linglong in a while, and then go back and rest."

The steward quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "This is the duty of a villain, thank you for your understanding."

He hesitated for a moment, glanced at Batu calmly from the corner of his eyes, and added a few more words, "Madam, I didn't know that the king of the grassland had sent another warrior to follow me until I came back from the journey. It's not easy for the villain to refuse...Please ask me Forgive me."

"Don't worry, the Prairie King thought of the old Xiong Ling's love for adopting him back then. He was thinking about my palace being bullied by others, so he specially sent a helper here. It's a good thing, so you don't have to worry about it, go back earlier."

Xiaomi nodded, signaling the manager not to worry, and then called Linglong, "Take him out, and bring him another box of mooncakes."

The steward is a fine person, so he knows the weight of the mooncakes. I don’t know how many officials in the court want to ask for one, but when he caused such a big "misfortune", the empress not only didn't blame him, but even gave him a reward. This is really true Let him be grateful.

He kowtowed three more times before quickly retreating.

What Xiaomi said just now was actually just to comfort the steward.After all, people travel between the grassland and the capital, and there is hard work without credit.With his temper in the first day of junior high school, he made up his mind to send a hundred king's account warriors over, and he, a small manager, naturally couldn't stop him.

However, Batu and his party really gave her a headache.

Although the border trade has been open for several years, Dayuan and the grassland are also in the honeymoon period, and the exchanges are smooth and there are few frictions.

But there is an old saying that goes well, those who are not of my race must have different hearts.

That is, no matter how good the two countries get along, they are not always a family.What's more, in the past hundred years, the grassland has also violated the border of the Yuan Dynasty, so it is impossible to be unprepared against them.

Now, she just had some problems here, and she gave away one hundred of the most elite king's account warriors on the first day of the junior high school.She naturally knew that she was worried that she would be bullied on the first day of the junior high school, but outsiders were more afraid that these warriors would become the eyes of the king of the prairie, probing the reality of the capital, or turning into a sharp knife piercing Dayuan's heart at a critical moment. …

Xiaomi rubbed the space between his brows, feeling very embarrassed about whether these people would go or stay.

If you send people back, don't say whether these people will be obedient, or you will hurt the face of the first year of junior high school.After all, he is no longer a small follower on Laoxiongling, but a prairie king who leads a tribe with a population of 10,000+.

But if they were to be left behind, where should they be placed, should they be arranged as usual, so as not to provoke criticism from the Great Yuan Court?
Mrs. Tie at the side also thought of this point. After all, Jiang is still old and spicy. She pondered for a moment and came up with an idea.

So, she shook Xiaomi's hand and said with a smile, "I heard that Xiao Zhuang has been thinking about new things recently, and Xiaoxiao will be worried if he can't keep them all. It just so happens that these warriors are here, how about asking them to help take care of it for a while?"

Xiaomi's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he wished he could hug the old lady and kiss her hard.

In fact, Xiaozhuang was also thinking about some weird things. It was really inconvenient to feed eggs to a few children in winter. Even if you were the prince and princess of a country, you couldn't force a hen to lay eggs under heavy snow.

Therefore, Xiaomi thought of those laying hens in the previous life, which were nothing more than keeping up with food, warming the house, and making a time difference.

So, she wrote an article and sent it to Xiaozhuang to Li Wuye and Cuilan couple who were sitting in the town.

Now half a year has passed, two chicken farms have been built, and recently I have started to feed the chickens with earthworms.It can't be said that if there are results, the people of Dayuan will have more ways to make a living in winter.

It is really reasonable for the old lady to find this excuse now.He not only found armed guards for Xiaozhuang, but also sent these warriors out of Kyoto, killing two birds with one stone.

Thinking in this way, she said to Batu, "Batu, I have a small village outside the city. I usually think about some novel things there on weekdays, so that outsiders can't spy on it. I will trouble you for a while. Help guard. How about sending you back to the grassland after I have communicated with your king?"

Batu can be the leader of the warriors of the king's tent. Now, apart from the king of the grassland and the commander of Daku, he is under two people and above ten thousand people. Naturally, he is not a big fool with well-developed limbs and a simple mind.

In particular, the grasslands are able to enjoy today's prosperous and good life, even children of all ages know that these wool blankets, leather boots, medicinal materials, and dairy products are all from the handwriting of the Great Yuan Queen.

Now the queen is thinking about novelty things, which may also be good for the grassland.He was naturally willing, not to mention, before leaving the house, the Prairie King only gave one order, and that was to follow the orders of Empress Da Yuan.This arrangement is the best of both worlds, what else does he disagree with.

"Thank you, Empress Empress, for taking me in."

He fell to his knees and answered loudly.

Xiaomi signaled Jixiang to come forward, gave some instructions in a low voice, and finally asked her to personally send Batu and others to Xiaozhuang.

After dealing with these matters, Feng Ze also returned from court.

Xiaomi cooked two dishes in person, waved away all the maids and eunuchs, and the three of them sat at the same table to eat.

Mrs. Tie said a few polite words, but she didn't refuse too much.

In her opinion, Xiaomi has insisted on performing family rituals in Fengxiang Palace for so many years, just to remind or let the emperor develop a habit.

Whether it is for everyone in Laoxiongling or for the Hou family, there are only advantages and no disadvantages.

But in fact, Xiaomi just likes a happy family, and doesn't want to make all her close relatives kneel down because she has become a queen, and because Feng Ze has regained her status as an emperor.

No matter how deep and close the family members are, they will gradually become alienated because of this kneeling.

Feng Ze is used to it, or prefers this kind of life.

He usually does not show his emotions in front of his courtiers, if he is still like this when he returns to his wife and children, how can there be joy and relaxation in those days.

He picked up a piece of fish in sauce for Xiaomi, and asked casually, "Did you send the warriors of the king's tent here on the first day of the junior high school?"

Mrs. Tie paused with her chopsticks, and there was a look of worry in her eyes, but Xiaomi responded casually, "Yeah, this kid has been the king of the grassland for a few years, and he has grown up. I'm afraid I disagree, so I just put him first." It’s here. It’s just that there is a shortage of manpower in Xiaozhuang, so what’s the use of labor without money? I asked Jixiang to take them there, and after a while, I’ll drive them back.”

Feng Ze nodded, and didn't ask any more questions, it was really like ordinary peasant couples gossiping, as if the endless remonstrance of those civil and military officials just now had been overheard.

Mrs. Tie breathed a sigh of relief quietly, eating the chicken wings brought by her daughter was even more delicious.

Two days later, Zhennanhou's mansion held a grand banquet. Although the excuse was to appreciate flowers, Mrs. Tie's personality is tough and she doesn't like flowers and plants, but she loves knives and guns. Everyone knows Dayuan.

Like this, it's just an excuse to meet old friends and entertain the old friends of the Hou Mansion.

Although Zhennanhou's Mansion controls nearly [-]% of Dayuan's military strength and has guarded the southwest frontier for Dayuan for generations, and is deeply trusted by three generations of emperors, the head of the Hou's Mansion sits in the southwest all year round and rarely appears in the capital.The servants of the Hou's Mansion are well aware of the importance of keeping a low profile. If there is nothing to do on weekdays, they seldom go out for a walk.

After so many years, it gave everyone in Kyoto an illusion.It seems that the Hou's Mansion is not as prestigious as a second-rank official's family. Even if no one files to bully him, no one thinks how mighty the Hou's Mansion is.

And it was only the end of the day, and there were carriages parked in front of the Hou's mansion, either luxurious or simple, but the markings on the carriages surprised even the discerning people.

Confucian Mansion, a century-old scholarly family, one of the most noble families in Dayuan.

Marquis of Donghai, the number one hero in eradicating Zoroastrianism, and the second among the Four Great Marquises.

Ding Guogong, the cousin of Emperor Chengde's generation, the iron hat title, hereditary.

The Liu family, the founder of Qinglu Academy, has peaches and plums all over the world.

...

House by house, house by house, the people who watched were shocked.

It stands to reason that in Zhennanhou's Mansion, no matter whether it is the Lord Hou or the old lady, they are not at home all year round.When did these aristocratic families establish friendship with Zhennanhou Mansion?

Of course, there are also smart people, but they found the answer from the women and maids who got off the car.
