At night, in the Imperial Study.

At this moment, the incense burner in the middle of the imperial study is slowly burning sandalwood, and the smoke is swirling, and you can faintly see the emperor working on the desk.

After approving a book, the emperor raised his head and turned his neck, and the big eunuch on the side saw this and asked the emperor worriedly: "Your Majesty, you have been approving the book for a long time, do you want to take a break?" ”

The emperor did not answer, but leaned on the dragon chair, his eyes were slightly closed, he looked a little tired, and the big eunuch standing on the side did not dare to speak anymore, and stood quietly next to the emperor.

The next second, I heard a voice coming from the seat: "You say, does the third child really want to marry that peasant girl or is it just to show me." ”

The big eunuch's eyes moved slightly: "Your Majesty, how can this slave know, the slave is castrated, and there is no way to understand His Majesty's worries about the prince in this life." But according to the slaves, no matter which prince it is, aren't they all His Majesty's children? If the child does something wrong, His Majesty just teaches it well, so don't get so angry, it's not good to be angry. ”

The emperor still leaned back in his seat and replied lazily: "You are an old thing, you will change the topic, I am asking you about the third child, you give me the second child, hum." The emperor was not angry, but he counted down the great eunuch.

The big eunuch just whispered twice.

Then I heard the emperor say with emotion: "Yes, whether it is good or bad, they are all my children, I have to teach them well, I can't be in a hurry, I can't be in a hurry." It seems that my old body will last two more years. ”

The chief eunuch smiled: "Your Majesty is still young, in good health, what do you say about being old, seeing that the general of Dingguo is a few years older than you, I heard that he exercises in the mansion every day, he is alive and kicking, and he looks energetic." ”

Speaking of the general of Dingguo, the emperor's face brought a little smile: "That old guy, every day he told me that he wanted to go out to lead the troops to fight, and he didn't look at his age, two days ago I also saw that he had two more silver wires on his sideburns, not to admit defeat, what to say not to be shot to death on the beach before the waves, to progress with the back waves, you talk about him." There was a clear hint of ridicule in the Emperor's words.

"I think back then, when we were young, we fought together on the battlefield, roamed the rivers and lakes, rode the wildest horses, drank the spiciest wine, saw the best-looking girls, and killed the most ferocious enemies. But that was when we were young, and now that we're all older, and he still wants to go out and mess around every day, do you think I can leave him alone? It's really, fooling around as soon as no one is watching. The emperor disliked the general of Dingguo, but every sentence was full of intimacy.

The big eunuch also chimed in: "The general has fought for the country all his life, and now that he is at home, I am afraid it is not so easy to let go, but fortunately, now that the young master Xiao Hao has also been recovered, the general can rest assured." The great eunuch was quite emotional, the general of Dingguo fought everywhere when he was young, but he didn't expect his newborn child to be taken away, at that time the army was crazy, the big eunuch still remembers, so high-spirited, proud man cried in front of the emperor.

When the emperor heard Xiao Hao's name, his expression was a little complicated, as if he was uneasy, as if he was guilty, and as if he was afraid, but finally nodded in agreement: "Yes, my son is back, and I have a reason to refuse the old man's nonsense request, let him rest assured that he will retire at home, don't make trouble, it will make people tired." At the end, the emperor's originally happy mood gradually lowered again.

The great eunuch didn't know why the emperor's mood suddenly became bad again, so he kept quiet and didn't speak, and the originally quiet imperial study became even more silent.

After a while, the emperor suddenly spoke: "It's rare for the third child to beg me, since the third child wants to marry that woman so much, let her marry, but she can only be a side concubine." I remember that there is an eldest daughter in the Shangshu family of the Criminal Department who has not yet married. ”

The big eunuch whispered, "Yes." ”

The emperor pondered for a while, and then said: "Pass my order, the eldest daughter of Shangshu of the Criminal Department is gentle and virtuous, and she is of good nature, and she will be given the concubine of the third prince, and the Song family of Mayang Village will be given the side concubine, and then order someone to pick a few concubines and send them to the three princes." ”

Ning Junqi was not wrong as expected, his imperial concubine became the daughter of the highest and most powerful official among the two princes and princes.

The big eunuch half-hung his head: "Yes, I will let people choose early tomorrow morning, and I will choose a few confidants for the third prince." ”

The Emperor hummed under his breath and did not speak again.

Once again, calm returned to the study.

In the past few days, Hang Yidong has once again returned to the salted fish life of eating, sleeping and eating, but when she sleeps at night, there is one more person sticking to her back, and she will not be woken up by freezing in the middle of the night.

On this day, before Hang Yidong woke up, he was awakened by a chaotic noise outside the camp, and he vaguely heard her name.

What's the situation, Hang Yidong wanted to get up in a daze, but was surrounded by the person next to him: "Sleep for a while." ”

Hang Yidong hadn't woken up yet, but when he heard Xiao Hao's words, he fell down again.

When he woke up from this sleep, it was already three poles in the morning, and Xiao Hao had already gotten up to train the soldiers.

Hang Yidong shouted, Shen Yue entered the inner room with a happy face, Hang Yidong was usually used to seeing Shen Yue's steady appearance, but now looking at Shen Yue's happy appearance, it was a little strange.

Hang Yidong asked, "Shen Yue, what happened, why are you so happy today." ”

Shen Yue smiled mysteriously, looked at the master sitting on the edge of the bed, and made a rare joke: "If the master wants to know, then go out and take a look by yourself, but it has something to do with the master." ”

Hang Yidong is a little strange now, it has something to do with her, it seems to be a good thing, what is it?

The potatoes planted by the planting team are now sown, and the two-month period has not yet arrived, so it shouldn't be this thing, pass.

The weapons created by the building team have already been delivered to Xiao Hao's soldiers, and they seem to be of good quality, but they have nothing to do with today's events, pass.

The high platform that the construction team wants to build is still in the final stages and has not been completed, and even if it is completed, it has nothing to do with her, pass.

So what exactly? Hang Yidong's face was already full of greetings.

Looking at Hang Yidong's puzzled expression, Shen Yue burst out laughing, and she said to Hang Yidong with a smile: "Master, don't think about it, just go out and have a look." ”

Hang Yidong nodded, tidied up his clothes under Shen Yue's service, and walked outside after cleaning.

As soon as he walked out of the tent, Hang Yidong was stunned by the scene in front of him.

The potatoes all over the ground are about to be piled up into a mountain.

The old man, who had been holding Li Sinian and chattering non-stop, saw Hang Yidong coming out, and immediately trembled and was about to walk towards Hang Yidong.

Li Sinian, who was forced to accept the old man's nagging, breathed a sigh of relief, and then winked at Hang Yidong, madam, ask for more blessings.

The captain of the planting team immediately went over to support the old man, and all the refugees who escorted the potatoes this time walked up to Hang Yidong and knelt down excitedly.

Seeing such a big movement here, the other melon-eating crowds on the side surrounded again.

Hang Yidong's surprise when she saw the potatoes all over the ground had not passed, and she was frightened by this scene again, she hurriedly picked up the old man in front of her, and said to the others: "Don't kneel on me, everyone is older than me, I can't stand it, get up quickly." ”

The old man was helped up, but his eyes were full of tears: "Madam, you have saved our lives, this grain has only been planted for less than two months, and so many kilograms of grain can be harvested, we don't have to be hungry anymore, we don't have to gnaw on tree bark and eat soil anymore, and we don't have to do such things that are against human morality!" ”

The old man spoke very excitedly, Hang Yidong hurriedly hugged the old man, and said to him gently: "Old man, this is what I should do, even if there is no me, someone will still stand up to help you after all, you don't have to ......"

Before Hang Yidong finished speaking, he was interrupted by the old man: "Madam, you are different from Lord Xiao, this way to Anhe County, the old man has never seen anything, there are people who sell children for food, there are people who eat insects and pick tree bark, and in the end there is nothing to eat, those beasts, those beasts actually beat the doctrine to their companions, that is a living human life!" The old man watched the two children die in front of me, but there was nothing he could do. I hate it, old man, I hate the injustice of this world, I hate that those in power don't ask about current affairs, and I hate the people for being confused and stupid. ”

"But madam, the appearance of you and Lord Xiao has changed my mind, when we are most sad, Lord Xiao provides us with food to eat, we work and pay us wages, and you even take us to develop new crops personally, this grain all over the ground, isn't it your merit Madame?"

"Thank you, Madame, for saving your life! You can afford to say thank you. ”

After speaking, the old man knelt down and shouted, "Thank you, Madame, for saving your life." ”

The others also shouted, "Thank you, Madame, for saving your life." ”

As soon as Xiao Hao came back, he saw the scene in front of him, he was stunned for a moment, and then walked to Hang Yidong, whose eyes were slightly red, and nodded at her. Don't do it again, that's my best wish to you. ”

Everyone whimpered and cried, and even the soldiers and generals who were watching on the sidelines had wet eyes.

They know that they have won this natural disaster, and it is humanity that has won.
