Xiao Chong: The Abandoned Concubine Shocks the World

Chapter 144 Zen Position
The charcoal pen was written on the paper, and the abacus was crackling. After counting back and forth three times, there was no mistake. Yao Tong frowned.

"Is there a problem?" Yang Muqing picked up a bowl of cool mung bean soup and drank it down in one gulp after training the newly recruited men.

"Yes." Yao Tong frowned tightly, "There are more and more people on the island, and more and more food is needed, but the money used to buy food in the past two months is less than before. I thought There is a problem with the ledger, but after doing the calculations, no mistakes were found.”

"No problem." Yang Muqing smiled, "It is true that the money is spent less, because the price of food has dropped."

"Food prices have dropped? How is that possible?" Yao Tong was greatly surprised.

In such a turbulent world of separatist regimes, the people are struggling to live, the land is barren, and the price of rice and grain has been soaring all the way. How could it drop this year?
"This year's weather is good in the Central Plains, south of the Yangtze River, and the lakes have a good harvest, so of course it will fall." Yang Muqing sat on the bamboo chair comfortably after drinking the mung bean soup, which was cool and refreshing.

"The year is going to be good. A military disaster in those feudal towns will end the disaster. It's really strange that the food can be reduced this year." Could it be that the leaders of the soldiers and bandits have all extinguished the flames of war? This is simply a fantasy.

"All disobedient ones will be taken away in one pot, and even that little imperial court will exist in name only. The whole world is congratulating." Yang Muqing shut her mouth quickly.

Yao Tong was in a daze.

Time flows like water, and it has been more than a year in the blink of an eye.

For more than a year, the ups and downs outside have never been communicated to her.In the beginning, Yang Muqing was worried about irritating her, so she didn't allow anyone to miss a word. Gradually, she got used to not listening or asking, and only concentrated on taking care of the general affairs of Donghuan Island, as if she could treat the past days as a dream.

Except for the occasional palpitations at night, and the constantly changing moody man in her dream, she seemed to be living peacefully.

"Ah Qing, you continue."

For a long time, Yao Tong said softly.

Yang Muqing stared at her and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her face was as calm as before.The situation outside has changed too much, and it won't be long to hide it from her.

Fortunately, Ah Tong really came out.

"Congratulations..." Yang Muqing paused, and said the name that is considered taboo in Donghuan Island, "He Zheng has flattened Jiangnan. The small court first named him the Prime Minister of Zhenguo, and after a while, he bestowed Jiuxi and Mianfu .”

Yao Tong listened quietly, the corners of his lips twitched, "Jiuxi Mianfu, is Jiangshan going to change his surname?"

Yang Muqing nodded, "Tong, you guessed it all. In May and June, the Central Plains harvested a lot of wheat, and in August and September, the rice in Jiangnan, Huguang, and Guangxi was ripe. People all over the world are spreading the word 'the saints come out, the world is full'."

"I just received the news yesterday that the little emperor who was captured by He Zhenghan from the south of the Yangtze River to Jizhou issued a letter of surrender, intending to cede the world to He Zhenghan, the prime minister of the country."

Yang Muqing originally thought that this news would not irritate Yao Tong. After all, her face was always calm, until there was a "bang", an abacus hit the ground, and the sudden sound broke the calm.

"Tong, are you okay?"

Yao Tong came back to his senses, "I'm fine."

But the voice became hoarse.

"A Tong, don't worry, even if he wins the world and becomes emperor, he won't be able to deal with our Donghuan Island. Don't be afraid." Yang Muqing comforted her.

Yao Tong shook his head, and his pink lips unconsciously left a tooth mark, "Ah Qing, what do you think he will do with the former royal family?"

Yang Muqing was stunned for a moment, "Looking through the history books, the royal family who lost their position did not have a good ending. With He Zhenghan's ruthlessness, I am afraid that he will kill the weeds."

"Really?" This sentence Yao Tong said very lightly, but she clenched her white fists tightly to reveal her surging emotions.

"A Tong, that woman is dead." Yang Muqing held her hand, Princess Ningguo was A Tong's heart demon.

"She's dead." Yao Tong murmured, "It's fine if she dies."

The summer is over and autumn is coming, and the weather is getting colder day by day, especially in the north, where the autumn wind blows overnight, the fallen leaves fall, and a few winter rains make the earth wither.

None of the civil servants and generals under Zhen Guoxiang Wang He Zhenghan's subordinates expected that he would choose such a day when everything was decimated to ascend the throne.

On the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, He Zhenghan ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the country was named Xia, and the world was amnesty.

"Your Majesty, I respectfully ask the king to see you."

King Gongshun was the young emperor of the Zen throne, Tianshu didn't want to pass it on to him at first, but the woman who came with him forced him to do so.

"Bring him in."

Tianshu brought people in, then retreated, standing far away.

"See Your Majesty."

Since he lost his throne, King Gongshun was frightened and trembling, and he was also a little foolish.He was led in by the woman who was wearing a maidservant's attire beside her, she stared blankly and didn't speak.

It was the woman beside him who pulled him and saluted.

"What's the matter?"

Seeing that he didn't even lift his head, the woman's voice was cold and heartless, and the circles of her eyes turned red instantly.

"People who have lost their country should not have disturbed His Majesty Han." The woman's lips trembled, and her slender body trembled, "I just hope that under His Majesty's rule, I can keep this crippled life."

"Sister Huang, I'm afraid." The dazed and respectful Wang Shun cried suddenly, hugging the woman and trembling.

"Shut up, don't call me Huangjie, I'm not your sister anymore. Remember, I'm just taking care of your handmaid." The woman's tearful eyes drifted past the tall man above her like fog, and she hurriedly covered her respectfully. The king's mouth scolded him with a mournful voice.

"No, you are not a maidservant, you are my imperial sister, the noble eldest princess." Although King Gongsun's mouth was covered, his voice came out clearly.

The woman finally couldn't help shedding tears. She hugged King Gongsun tightly, her slender body knelt in a graceful arc, "Your Majesty, calm down. King Gongsun's mind was damaged, like a child. He didn't know that Princess Ningguo was dead. , now I'm just taking care of his servants"

It was hard to say what she said, and her heart was even more bitter and unspeakable.

"You just understand."

He Zhenghan finally looked her in the eye.

"Brother Han, you are so cruel."

The last glimmer of hope was shattered, and Li Rouhui's heart was ashamed. This man who once held her in his hands and pampered her was now so ruthless.

She is still alive, but Princess Ning is dead.

He let her live, but took away her honorable status, so she could only hide in a dark corner, living as a lowly maidservant, shamelessly.

"You shouldn't treat me like this." She was born noble, well-clothed and well-fed. Even if she was married to Xiqiang, she was enshrined and held up. How could she ever live in a cold and damp slave room like this now, wash clothes in ice water, and grow all over her body? frostbite.

"What kind of curse did that woman put on you to make you treat me so hard that you won't let it go until you're dead?"

"Bang" there was a loud sound of a heavy object hitting the ground, followed by a loud shout, "Get out!"

He Zhenghan uncovered the case, like a wild beast that had been stabbed in the heart, furious and violent, choosing to eat people.
