Chapter 436: Entering Beijing
The cuckoo waited for him to swing back and forth a few times before holding him up.
The young man had already fainted, but she ignored him, but turned out the dagger and drew a line of eye-catching words on the ground: "My niece tells a certain uncle: Even if you jump into the sky, don't think about ascending the throne!" See? You don't have that life! This is providence!! β
When he got up after writing, the young man had already opened his misty eyes and looked at her in a daze.
The cuckoo approached him and said, "Actually, you haven't broken down yet. It's not easy for your father and mother to give birth to you, I'll give you a few words at parting, whether you can understand it depends on your creation. β
The young man did not know how she was going to humiliate herself.
Du Juan said: "No matter who you are serving for, but as the old saying goes, 'good birds choose trees to perch, and virtuous ministers choose their masters', your master sent you to kidnap a lonely royal granddaughter who was helpless and unfortunately left behind in the mountains, or his juniors, just against this despicable means, he can't be the master." If you work hard for such a person, if you say it is light, you will bury your conscience and future, and if you say it is serious, you will leave a disaster to the people and the people of the world. You have done a lot of dark things for him, and even if he does not unload the mill and kill the donkey to take your blame for your sins in the future, your ancestors will not spare you when you go underground. The cause of this iniquity that you have created will be borne by your children. β
When the young man heard these righteous and awe-inspiring words, he forgot even the pain and looked at her blankly.
He really wanted to jump down and tell her: County Lord, you really don't know the world!
Which "master" has a bright upper position?
Which prince has clean hands?
His master also told not to hurt her life, which was much better than others.
It's a pity that the cuckoo can't hear the cry in his heart, and he has long gone.
Just came out of the house and walked away, with a high spirit!
The young man had severe chest pain. His eyes were dark, but he couldn't wait to pull her back and sue her.
He forgot. He shouldn't have to worry about this, he should have worried about how he would face the people who came to answer. and his masters; Also, how can he see people like this!
After the cuckoo escaped from the trap, he ran into the twilight mountains.
It feels so good to be free-running!
Running and running, there is a faint village in front of me; Farther away, the towering walls of the capital, like a winding dragon in the twilight, the towers of the city towers black and towering, like a cocked dragon's head.
Where does she go next?
Back to Fengwei Mountain and back to Yan Valley?
No. Everyone sent her to the edge of the capital for free, why don't she go in and take a walk, is it worth the bumps of these days? Is it worthy of the hard work of others? "Invited" her so hard, of course she has to make a big fuss and then end the curtain!
Also, the return journey must not be smooth, it is better to go the other way, go to the capital and drill into the vast sea of people, let them find it!
Again. She still has to go see Lin Chun.
There is another very important matter, which is related to the future of Huiyan Valley.
Or rather, it's about her future.
Now not only is there a lot of tea planted on Fengwei Mountain, but she also allows the villagers to plant tea on the mountains around Yangu. It has expanded thousands of acres, and there will be tens of thousands of acres or tens of thousands of acres in the future. The roads in the mountains are difficult to travel, and it is difficult to transport almost everything. Even if it is shipped out, it is difficult to make money; But tea is light and expensive. It is the variety that makes money, so she plans to grow tea as her main source of income in the future. It is supplemented with precious medicinal herbs and furs.
Her tea is of good quality and has to take the high-end route.
Therefore, she should go to the capital to conduct a market research.
Regarding the matter of the tribute tea that her imperial grandfather said, she also came up with a new trick to deal with it: that is, the tea leaves of Fengwei Mountain picked and fried by her own hands were supplied to the imperial palace, and the tea leaves picked and fried by the villagers on other mountains were sold separately, which was not considered a violation of the holy decree.
She is so calculating, not because of the desire for profit, but since she recognized her ancestors and returned to her ancestors, she has felt that life has become more and more difficult, and she no longer has the freedom she used to have, so she has to calculate.
It's all because of that terrible identity and status!
There are forty or fifty eunuchs and palace maids alone, and she is not allowed to give people moonsilver?
There are also dragon guards, their military salaries are allocated from the imperial court, but they have been on an errand with her for a long time, and they can't often reward and contact feelings? This is a lesson.
There is even a big one, that is, human relations!
Since Mama Hua reminded her that August 15 was the emperor's birthday and asked her to prepare a birthday gift to send to the capital, she began to feel that the silver was kind.
She asked Mama Hua that she usually had to give gifts to those people in the capital.
Mama Hua tried her best to teach the master of Jing'an County the etiquette: the emperor's longevity, the queen's thousand autumns and the three festivals of the year, as well as the birthdays of a group of uncles and princes such as Prince Yong and Prince Shun, as well as weddings and funerals in the house......
The cuckoo's eyes widened when he heard thisβ
It's a shame to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors!!
She would rather be a helpless orphan girl, how much trouble she can save!
In a word: her father and mother are gone, so the crown prince, that is, Prince Weilie, is the only orphan girl left, and she wants to hold up this portal. Even if she is not in the capital, she can't avoid the personal contacts of those relatives, otherwise she will be rude and unfilial!
She really wanted to ask Mama Hua, can she not recognize her six relatives?
However, even if she was reckless, she couldn't really ask that.
So she asked Mama Hua very sincerely: "Mama is right, but my father and mother are gone, and the emperor gave me these mountains that are difficult for birds to cross and apes to climb, and I am so poor that I only have to go back to Yangu." In this mountain I eat and drink without worry; If you want to talk about the rich relatives in the capital, how can you afford to go? There are a lot of fish in Yanhu Lake, and if it weren't for the difficulty of the mountain road, I could often catch some and send them to my relatives to taste, which is also a thought. But I have this heart, and I can't send it away. β
Mama Hua stammered when she heard this.
She only knows how to teach what should be taught, this is a matter of supporting her family......
Looking at the bright eyes of the Jing'an County Lord, she felt a little difficult to open her mouth.
It's so pitiful to have a baby without a father!
Seeing her squirm lips, the cuckoo preemptively said, "Mama wants to talk about the emperor's reward?" Then I can't just rely on the emperor's reward to live. Besides, according to what Mama just calculated, those rewards can't last long. I can't go to the pawnshop to be the emperor's reward, can I? β
Mama Hua was silent, and she also felt that this matter was serious.
She thought for a while and said, "Generally, the powerful families have farmland and Zhuangzi as income inputs. The county lord didn't have nothing to do with Yangu this time. Let's just talk about the fields and the tea trees, and the lake. It's all the county lord's. The lord of the county should collect rent for the people to live here. If you don't charge any rent. And for a long time they assumed that the land was theirs. Not only is he not grateful, but when his children and grandchildren want to take it back, he is afraid that he will be resentful. β
This cuckoo also thought of it, nodded hurriedly, and said that she had written down the matter of collecting rent.
But she counted her fingers again, and felt that the cost was still too great.
Every time she calculated, she had to demonstrate it to Mama Hua and the four daughters of Fenghua Xueyue.
The five of them were worried when they heard this, and they lit the lamp and stayed up all night to help the county lord of Jing'an calculate the housework and income and expenditure accounts. In order to reduce expenses and increase income, one by one the more and more refined.
In the end, the cuckoo stipulated: to give gifts to the royal relatives of the capital. All of them are replaced by local specialties of Huiyan Valley, such as tea, medicinal herbs and various mountain delicacies. This is not only rare, but also decent and not rude, this year's Zhengyuan Emperor's longevity she gave a big Ganoderma lucidum.
Liufeng said distressedly: "County Lord, those things are worth a lot outside!" β
She felt that the county lord really didn't understand the outside world.
Luohua nodded, and said after considering his words: "The county lord should open a shop outside to sell these." First, it can increase the input, and second, it will not be wasted. In addition, there are many royal relatives of the county lord, and they all ask for it from the beginning, and it is not good for the county lord to send one family or not; To give it all. That's not making cow ...... for people."
As he spoke, he felt that it was inappropriate, so he hurriedly swallowed the rest of the words back.
Mama Hua glanced at her, but she didn't say anything, and her eyes were very worried.
The cuckoo had already understood. She didn't want to be a cow or a horse.
Filtering through these in his mind one by one, and then looking at the majestic Kyoto in front of him, Du Juan is full of thoughts about how to make money and make a fortune. It was as if she was not taken captive, but had come to the capital to take care of business.
In fact, she thinks further than she seems. is the future of her and Lin Chun.
She will marry Lin Chun in the future, and these will eventually fall on Lin Chun's head.
Maybe Emperor Zhengyuan just saw that the Lin family's family background was too thin. didn't agree with her marrying him, for fear that she would not be reliable in the future. Therefore, she wants to help Lin Chun rise up.
Thinking about it, she ran to the big castle in high spirits and high spirits.
She did not lose her vigilance, and ran north first, staying for one night in a small inn in a small town on the outskirts of Beijing. The next day, I went to the town and bought a bunch of things I needed, and a target glass, and then went into the mountains.
Behind a hidden mountain wall, she modifies herself.
I didn't dress up weirdly, my eyebrows were thickened, the corners of my eyes were slightly retouched, and my hair was tied up; He also wore a round-necked royal blue Confucian gown, black cloth foundation soap boots, silk silk around the waist, and a sword and a hole flute; With a cyan brocade on his shoulder, he looks slender, handsome, and graceful.
Although she didn't hide it, it was still a little difficult to recognize her as the lord of Jing'an.
After doing this, she went straight to the Beihua Gate of the capital.
When you come to the city gate and look at the towering city wall tower up close, you will feel different and more shocking in your heart. Seriously, even if she was used to seeing high-rise buildings in her previous life, she couldn't help but revere this magnificent building, and her mood was looking forward to it.
No way, she's been in the country for too long, and she's become a hillbilly.
At this time, she finally realized Huang Li's chatter, "Second sister, if you want to go to the capital, you must take me there." That longing was the normal state of mind of a young girl of her age.
"Alas, it's a pity, why didn't you take the yellow bird captive!" She muttered.
At this time, it was the middle of the morning, and the city gate was full of people, and more than a dozen tiger guards were on duty at the city gate.
The cuckoo walked over with a smile, and the first tiger guard was attracted by her jade-like appearance, and his eyes didn't turn when he saw it; The second Tiger Guard stopped her and reached out to her.
The cuckoo raised his eyes slightly and stared at him.
The Tiger Guard was a little puzzled, but still held out his hand.
The cuckoo turned his head and glanced at the official road behind him, as if he didn't see the person he was looking for, his expression was a little impatient, and he lazily took out a blood jade token from his arms, which was carved with a five-clawed flying dragon, and shook it at the tiger guard, and snorted coldly.
The Tiger Guards were shocked, and hurriedly bowed down and stretched their hands and said, "Prince, please!" β
Don't dare to say a word or ask a word.

Ask for powder. (To be continued......)
