Space peasant girl: madly criticizing Xianggong for being weak and bullying

Chapter 321 A Gentleman's Word
Xiao Ran and Gu Chang'an have been with the guards for many years, and they are very confident in their strength, so they agreed to this request that they thought must be won without any hesitation.

That's good, you don't have to rack your brains to find a way to dissuade your daughter, she will give up by herself.

Xiao Ran stretched out a hand: "A word from a gentleman."

Xiaoxiao still put on a serious look on her immature face: "Hurry up and whip the horse."

When they heard this request just now, the guards felt that it was ridiculous, but seeing the lovely and loving lady, everyone took the initiative to play with her without saying a word.The child is still young, so it's normal to be a little playful. After all, I was worried about the general a few days ago, and the lady was also worried. Now it's hard to relax, how reasonable it is to relax.

They decided to hide their strength for a while, pretending that they couldn't find Miss, to make her happy.

But after an hour, the guards found that they really couldn't find anyone—but how could it be possible?
Even if they left the battlefield, they didn't lose all their kung fu, at least the movement within three feet couldn't escape their ears. They can be sure that since the young lady hid behind the first tree, she hasn't moved more than one foot distance.

A few people surrounded the bushes around the tree with some puzzlement: "It sounds like I should be here."

Another person scratched his head: "I was thinking that my kung fu has regressed, and you think so, third brother, so I should be right."

The third person tentatively probed the grass, with a puzzled face: "But what about people?"

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering: "Miss must have lost her way in the mountains."

Thinking of this possibility, several people hurriedly took out the signal fireworks from their arms, preparing to deal with it as an emergency.

Xiaoxiao, who was watching all this in the space, hurriedly came out: "Oh, don't, don't, I'm here, on my own mountain, how could I get lost."

The guards were stunned, and they ran to her place and circled around a few times in disbelief.

No, they came here just now, there is no one, when did the lady come here?
Xiaoxiao put her hips on her hips, full of ambition: "Am I amazing?"

Not only is it powerful, it is simply too powerful, they went around several times: "How did you do it?"

How could this Xiaoxiao say anything? She lifted her chin and said mysteriously: "The secret must not be revealed, you can just say who wins, I can accept two wins in three rounds."

Everyone: ...it's...it's hard to renege on a debt.

When they returned to Ning's courtyard back and forth, Gu Changan's expression changed from relaxed to sad, and Xiao Ran was also puzzled. She endured it again and again, but she still couldn't help asking: "You guys?" Is there any water?"

The guards made a bitter face: "It's even more embarrassing if you lost without releasing the water."

It was rare for Xiao Ran to be in a daze: "My daughter is so powerful?" If her leg was not injured, I really wish I could find out by myself.

After thinking about it all night, Xiao Ran decided to keep his promise: "How do you plan to go? With the military doctor arranged by the court?"

Xiaoxiao shook her head: "Doctor Gongsun is impatient with the court, so we have to go with Li Muyan."

The caravan of the Li family is strong and experienced, and it may be faster than the imperial court.

What's more, they are light and simple, and their goods are not heavy and don't take up much space. Even if they encounter robbers, they won't look down on them if they weigh this bunch of sacks filled with dried vegetables.

To sum up, following the Li family is fast and safe.

Xiaoxiao felt that her parents were role models among all parents, and she didn't take the promise seriously just because she was young, so she really agreed with her to go to the border that night.

However, there is a small additional requirement...

The news that Xiao Ran was going to heal her leg injury could not be hidden from the emperor. Knowing that someone might stop her from being tormented by foreign objects in her flesh and blood, the emperor was very pleased. Recently, his mind has been full of food issues at the border.

The gang of profiteers in the capital city had been emboldened, and they were very skilled in hoarding grain at high prices. The emperor decided to deal with them severely in his spare time.

"This Li family is the former imperial merchant?"

Looking at these wealthy businessmen who are reasonable in the capital, the price offered by the Li family is still reasonable.

Mr. De had a very good memory, he didn't even need to look through the pages to recall all kinds of Li family sayings and listen to the emperor, because most of them were good deeds, the emperor remembered them down.

On the next day when he went to the court, the emperor spread out the matter of collecting grain, looking for an aspiring minister who volunteered to take over the burden, and there was a fierce dispute between the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. Since General Xiong set off with the first batch of supplies, At the border, the rest of these officials began to push each other. They used to belittle their opponents to nothing, but now they are all boasting.

One said that Mr. Wang had a high reputation, so he would be able to persuade rich merchants to donate grain, and the other said that Mr. Li was powerful enough to make grain merchants take the initiative to lower prices.

There are also some who can't find anyone to praise, so they are filled with righteous indignation and scold profiteers for being shameless, and delay the important moment, they don't know what it means!But after scolding for a long time, I didn't explain how to get enough food to send to the border.

The emperor looked at all this indifferently, and his heart was full of sarcasm—this is Daxia's court today.

It's no wonder that Lu Chenzhi, who is clearly capable, would rather go to teach in that remote village. If he wasn't the emperor, he wouldn't bother to look at these clowns, no, old clowns.

After listening to the nonsense of you coming and going for a long time, the emperor wanted to yawn, but at this moment, some stupid official asked nonsense: "Or, let's buy grain at a high price and close the border gates." After the matter is settled, we will consider how to deal with those profiteers?"

The emperor just wanted to sneer—if there was still money in the treasury, why would he listen to so much nonsense in the early court?
His eyes fluttered, and he caught sight of the prince standing in the crowd. He asked, "What's the prince's opinion?"

The crown prince paused for a moment, and then stepped forward respectfully: "Your Majesty, I believe that you can buy grain on credit, or in exchange for tax relief, let the grain merchants first give up a part of the grain to meet the border."

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly. Although this method was feasible, he was upset.

Besides, don't think he doesn't know that most of those businessmen are related to the Yan family.

The reason why he allowed the group of wastes in the court to swear and swear was because he wanted the prince to listen, but he listened to it, but he didn't intend to make the Yan family back down.

The Yan family, what a Yan family.

When he looked at the prince again, the emperor's eyes turned cold. When he tilted his head slightly, Eunuch De understood and shook off the Buddha dust in his hand. After seeing his movement, an urgent alarm came from outside the palace——

"His Majesty, General Xiao ordered people to send back one hundred thousand shi of food, and there are more on the way..."
