Chapter 387: The Chivalrous Woman and the Romantic Young Prince (21)
"Host, your man's kung fu is quite good. The moment that woman was about to touch him, he jumped up the tree, so Qin Yu who was following him suffered."
Yan Xue suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. Well, considering that he is still cautious, I'll give him another point."
On the other side, Shi Junhao hurriedly bid farewell to Yan Xue and left. He really couldn't afford to lose face in front of this person.
Tonight, Duanmu Ci was finally not kicked off the bed by the girl. He hugged the girl tightly, smelled the fragrance on her body, and his heart was filled with happiness and satisfaction.
Although he didn't dare to do anything more and just kissed her forehead gently, he already felt extremely happy.
His eyes sparkled with joy, "Finally I can drink the soup, and it should be soon time to eat the meat!"
The next morning, Yan Xue's four senior brothers came to visit.
Yan Xue said with a smile on her face: "Congratulations, Senior Brother, you have finally become the leader of the martial arts world! This was also Dad's greatest wish before he died."
Pei Yong was also filled with emotion, "Fortunately, I have not let down my master who has cultivated me for so many years."
An Huaitang also hurriedly asked, "Junior Sister, how have you been recently? I heard that you opened two more inns?"
Yan Xue smiled and replied: "Yes, business is pretty good!"
"Junior sister, why didn't I realize you have a talent for business before?"
Yan Xue blinked and said, "Isn't this all because of Second Senior Brother's good teaching?"
An Huaitang smiled and nodded, "That's right."
"By the way, Senior Brother, why did you take so long this time? I saw the letter sent by Second Senior Brother to me by pigeon, saying that you went to more than a dozen Ci'an Bureaus to check. Did anything happen?"
Pei Yong sighed deeply and said in a heavy tone: "Master always taught us that in this life, we should walk more and see more.
Only in this way can we truly understand the ups and downs of this world. This time, the four of us experienced it firsthand.
Southern Henan suffered a severe drought, the people's harvest was less than 30%, thieves were rampant,
The four of us took down two bandit dens, but this was just a drop in the bucket. The lives of the people were just too difficult.”
Yan Xue frowned and asked worriedly, "Doesn't the court care?"
Pei Yong shook his head helplessly, "Although the court has issued relief grain, after layers of exploitation, how much will be left in the hands of the people?
How many of those officials really care about the lives of the people? All we can do is try our best. There is nothing we can do to stop us.
But our Jiangzhou Prefecture is still good, at least the people live and work in peace and contentment, and all the bandits in the past few years have been strangled by the prince, and the past few years have been a peaceful and prosperous era."
Yan Xue nodded, Jiangzhou will only get better and better.
"By the way, Second Brother, have you brought everyone here?"
"I brought them. When the kids from the Ci'an Bureau heard that you wanted people, they all rushed to come. But, Junior Sister, why do you need so many people?"
Yan Xue said cunningly, "The immortals have their own magical uses."
She turned around and whispered something to the eldest brother.
Pei Yong's eyes widened wider and wider, with a look of shock and worry on his face.
He looked at his junior sister disapprovingly and said softly: "Junior sister, you only have 20 black armor soldiers..."
Yan Xue just smiled, with a firm and confident light in her eyes, "Everything depends on human effort. How do you know it won't work if you don't try?"
Bai Jingan quickly jumped over and said, "Junior sister, why did you only tell Senior Brother about this and not us?"
Pei Yong quickly pulled the fourth child and said, "Little kid, stop worrying about it. How is your research on the mental method going?"
Bai Jingan scratched his head and said, "I'm currently studying it."
An Huaitang and Su Shijing looked at each other and didn't ask anything.
Yan Xue sent off the four brothers, frowned and thought deeply.
She didn't want to live a life where others were the butchers and I was the meat, and she didn't want the guillotine on her head to suddenly fall down and leave no trace of her body.
Otherwise, why would the once glorious young prince disguise himself as that kind of person? It was probably to protect the Black Armor Army.
Just imagine an army that has been in the hands of the enemy for more than 20 years. Who would dare to use it!
On the other side, in the palace, Emperor Wude asked, "How is Jiangzhou doing recently?"
Prime Minister He replied: "Everything is fine. Since the Prince of Xiping married the Princess, she has used her dowry to subsidize the military pay and food of the Black Armor Army."
The emperor raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? It seems that this princess is indeed rich."
Prime Minister He nodded and agreed, "Yes, I heard that the Princess of the County has opened several restaurants in the city, and the business is really good."
The emperor waved his hand and said impatiently: "Don't tell me these trivial matters. Has that kid not been to the Black Armor Army yet?"
"No, I have never been there. However, after the Princess entered the palace, almost all the servants in the Prince's Mansion were replaced, and our people were also replaced."
"Don't worry about the affairs of the inner house. Keep a close eye on the movements of the Black Armor Army. If there is any unusual movement, report it immediately."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
On the other side, a dark shadow walked silently towards the Black Armor Army camp.
The guards at the door immediately noticed him with vigilance, but when they saw the badge in the other party's hand, they nodded and continued their patrol.
The black shadow flew by as fast as lightning and arrived in front of the central army tent in the blink of an eye.
Meng Chang recognized the man at a glance. He asked anxiously, "But the prince sent you here. What instructions do you have?"
Qin Yu took off the black cloth on his face, revealing a stern face, and handed a letter to General Meng.
Meng Chang hurriedly took the letter, carefully opened the envelope, and read it word by word.
Suddenly, he laughed excitedly: "Great! Great! I have always wanted to reclaim the wasteland west of the military camp to grow food.
But the prince always refused, and now it can finally be realized!"
