Chapter 274 The tail that can’t be shaken off
Xie Fengyue had something on her mind, so she leaned against the car wall and couldn't fall asleep.
You Heng was so happy that he actually fell asleep. He had been very busy these days. In order to go to Yongning, he had arranged all the affairs of the house and the army in the next few months.
He has been staying in the study these past few days to deal with matters, and he is really not a pretense to deceive Xie Fengyue. He can count them with both hands when he sleeps these days. His meridians were retrograde just now, so he is really tired.
When the sound of gradually steady breathing came, Xie Fengyue laughed softly: "This husband is really used to being sick, and he can still sleep in such a miserable state."
Under the moonlight, Xie Fengyue could clearly see the red spot on You Heng's left eye. She suppressed her smile and touched her face.
She took off her mask before talking to Gao Shan.
This human skin mask is one of her few trump cards. In her opinion, although You Jiaerlang is a pure and kind man, he really cannot be trusted by her.
When Xie Fengyue thought of people she trusted, she thought of Lin Qishu.
She pinched her eyebrows and said, "I hope Shu'er won't be too angry after receiving the letter."
Before Xie Fengyue's wedding, she handed the letter to Lin Qingping through the hands of the vegetable farmers who went to Xie's every day to deliver vegetables. First, she asked him to restrain Lin Qishu and not let her go out for half a month. , the second is to ask him to do a small favor and copy Weining's book on the court. As for the reason, the prince's palace he repaired collapsed due to cutting corners.
This matter was just a matter of convenience for Lin Qingping. He was a noble official in the court, which was his job, not to mention that Weining was the culprit who made his family uneasy.
After he was impeached and the news spread, Xiao Yunzi would go to Yu Guifei's personal maid to talk.
They say that Wei Ning only dared to commit corruption during the renovation of His Highness's East Palace because of his closeness to His Highness. According to Yu Guifei's cautious temperament, she would definitely not make the matter obvious, but would instead make it obvious to others. Search for evidence secretly.
That's when the letter in the food box will come into play.
Once there are signs that something is wrong with his life experience, there are so many aristocratic families in Shengjing that an ant can kill an elephant. If Xie Wuwei doesn't help him wipe his ass, what is waiting for Wei Ning is to be liquidated by various former in-laws of the Wei family.
Everyone in the world wants to benefit. It depends on how much blood Wei Ning and Xie Wuwei can draw to stop the wound that is about to fester.
As for Liu Qinglan hiding in the palace.
Xie Fengyue squeezed the bracelet on her wrist tightly. She still remembered that when she had a hairpin, she put it on with her own hands. At that time, she smiled and said dotingly: "I don't know who's son would be so lucky. Can you take off my moon?”
Perhaps Xie Fengyue's failure to take action against her in this plan was her last act of kindness.
Xie Fengyue's journey was extremely smooth, so smooth that she felt strange.
There were no pursuing soldiers, no refugees coming to rob, and no bandits coming to hijack.
"What is Madam thinking about?"
You Heng's voice interrupted Xie Fengyue's thinking.
Xie Fengyue raised her eyes and glanced at him, then immediately turned her gaze away.
No, it's not going smoothly either. At least You Heng is a troublemaker.
He was not used to living in a carriage and had to set up camp at night. He was not used to eating dry food and hard biscuits. When passing through a city, he had to go to the city to take a bath and have a good meal.
The original planned arrival in Yongning was one month, but now it has been postponed to the end of the second month. The distance to Yongning is at least five, six, seven or eight days. You Heng knew what she was thinking as soon as he saw her unhappy expression. He leaned in front of her without leaving a trace, pointed at the endless entourage behind him and said: "Madam, it's not that I delayed the trip, it's really... These refugees you picked up are walking too slowly. It’s not like I have to go to the town to eat.”
He then pointed to the few grains left on the carriage and said, "Madam's army has all assembled, and the grains are not enough to eat. We have more than a hundred mouths. We can save money by going to the city." Ration for more than a hundred mouths?”
Xie Fengyue.
It's actually some crooked talk.
When it comes to the refugees he picked up, Xie Fengyue simply said he was suffering.
When the group of them passed by the ruined temple, they saw two smelly and rotten human corpses on the path in front of the temple. Xie Fengyue was just afraid that these corpses would attract diseases, so she asked the soldiers to dig a hole for them and bury them. .
As soon as the burial was completed, a large number of refugees with sallow faces, skinny muscles, and scanty clothing rushed out of the pitch-black temple, kowtowing and shouting "Great Benevolent Person".
Xie Fengyue originally wanted to ignore her with a cold face, but she didn't expect that You Heng was already looking at her with tears in his eyes. His appearance was just one step away from those of the weeping little girls.
When her heart softened, she ordered someone to cook a pot of porridge.
This time it was a hornet's nest, oh no, it was a nest of refugees. When we set off on the second day, these people spontaneously followed the team. They did not come up to ask for food, so they lined up one by one to follow.
Xie Fengyue was neither beaten nor scolded.
Along the way, more and more refugees gathered, and Xie Fengyue almost became the refugee leader who led the refugees to find a new home.
Simply speechless.
"Madam! Why are you ignoring me!" You Heng pushed Xie Fengyue's shoulder. Maybe his voice was a little louder, and he started coughing again just after he finished speaking.
Xie Fengyue skillfully took out the medicine bottle, poured out a pill and stuffed it into his mouth.
Only then did he come to his senses, his eyes turned red and he said angrily: "Madam, why don't you talk to me now?"
Xie Fengyue.
"If you have nothing to do, go and rest on the carriage. We are entering a big city today and I have to go to the county governor's mansion."
If You Heng had been obedient, Xie Fengyue wouldn't have had such a headache for more than a month: "I'm going too. These are rough guys. I'm afraid of being alone in the camp."
Xie Fengyue hesitated for a moment, and finally relaxed.
After all, You Heng is a noble son from a noble family. It is already quite good for him to be able to eat with the common people. It is really inappropriate to leave him alone in the camp.
"Then call your attendants, clean up and let's go together."
Xie Fengyue's purpose of going to the County Sheriff's Mansion was very simple, that is, to find a few people from County Sheriff Yu. She had a copy of "Qi Ming Yao Shu" in her hand, but she knew nothing about farming. Even if she had the book in hand, she would still need a few people. She was an agricultural adjutant who could read and write. She still didn't know what the situation in Yongning was, but judging from the tax records, it didn't look very good either.
The cultivated land is almost abandoned due to the problem of salinity. Yongning is originally vast, but only suitable places for living are concentrated. This large city relies almost entirely on seafood. The remaining few who do not have access to the sea rely on the few blocking mountains to survive.
If this situation continues, the population of Yongning will drop sharply in less than ten years and the county will be reduced to a rural area. If she is a princess and has no county, even if she has no county, then she might as well go home and wash her hands. Let's make some soup.
What are you dreaming about every day?
