Chapter 1085: Expectations for the Better
Not long after entering the room, Nie Rong and his mother also came to Qin Meiniang's room with a plate of snacks.
After entering Qin Meiniang's room, Nie Rong and his mother also stepped forward with the snack in their hands, walked in front of Qin Meiniang, and said with a smile:
"Mei Niang! Lady made you some snacks, you can eat some while it's hot! ”
Seeing this, Qin Meiniang also choked up, and then said to Nie Rong and his mother:
"Auntie, let's put it on the wooden table first, I'm not hungry now, if I don't have an appetite, I'll eat later."
Seeing that Qin Meiniang was a little abnormal, Nie Rong and his mother were also stunned, and asked Qin Meiniang:
"Xiaomei, are you not feeling well? I feel like you're a little obedient today, is something happening! ”
Qin Meiniang also choked up, looked at Nie Rong and his mother and said:
"Auntie, I'm fine, don't worry."
Nie Rong and his mother also sat down and said to Qin Meiniang:
"I heard the master of the family say that you are going to live in the county government, I don't know if this is true?"
Qin Meiniang also nodded, and then said:
"It's true, I'll go to the county government early tomorrow morning, and Lord Liu will come to this mansion to pick me up from the county government in person."
Nie Rong and his mother heard Qin Meiniang say something to confirm this matter, she couldn't help but sigh, and said with emotion:
"Don't say it, I really don't want you to go to the county government to live in my heart, you have lived with us for so long, we have long been a family, we are like relatives, you are going to live in the county government tomorrow, I can't help but feel that time is too fast."
Qin Meiniang also smiled bitterly, looked at Nie Rong and his mother who were also forced to smile, and said:
"Auntie, this is not the time to part with life and death, nothing, right now, the guards sent by the emperor to assassinate me before did not succeed, the emperor did not get the news that I have been killed, he will definitely continue to send soldiers and horses to kill me, so I can only temporarily live in the county office, which is the safest, whether it is for myself or for you."
Nie Rong and his mother also choked up, and said with a tangled face:
"What a miserable boy you are! Although your identity is not ordinary, what you have experienced is really something that ordinary people will never experience in their lifetime! I was finally rescued, and now I survived, and my memory has been restored, I originally thought that you could go back to the palace in Kyoto City at any time, and you can be your emperor, but I didn't expect that the emperor wanted to poison you and kill you. ”
Qin Meiniang also said with a serious face:
"Don't worry, auntie, I'll be fine, if the emperor wants to kill me, it's not so easy! If I don't die, there will be a blessing in the future. ”
Nie Rong also nodded and said:
"I hope so, as you said, you will be blessed if you don't die!"
Qin Meiniang looked at Nie Rong and his mother with a grateful face:
"Auntie, I have lived with your family for so long, and it has always been thanks to the care and love of your family, I can have today, you are my savior, I will never forget what your family has done to me in this life, you are all good people, I believe you are also destined to have good rewards!"
After Nie Rong and his mother listened to Qin Meiniang's words full of gratitude, she couldn't help but gasp and said:
"Don't say such polite words, saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, we can save you, we are all willing, we don't want anything in return, as long as you do well, return to the palace in the future, and do more things for the people of our Jinfeng Kingdom, it will be good."
Qin Meiniang also nodded, and said with a sincere face:
"Well, I remember, I will definitely live up to my aunt's expectations of me."
Nie Rong and his mother also smiled and said:
"Okay, let's not talk about these things that make people quite emotional, we should think more about some beautiful things, don't dwell on these things, you hurry up and eat some snacks, these are all made by me for a long time, eat some."
Qin Meiniang also looked at the plate of dim sum on the wooden table on this side, and she also said happily:
"Okay, I'm going to eat more dim sum made by my aunt, otherwise, when I go to the county office, I won't have such a good chance to eat the dim sum you made by my aunt in the future."
Nie Rong and his mother couldn't help but say with a serious face:
"What's so hard about that! As long as you want to eat the snacks made by the eldest mother, you can ask your guards to come and tell me at any time, and then let the guards send you to the county government after I am ready, it's all a trivial matter. ”
Qin Meiniang also took a piece of dim sum, and she ate it with emotion, and said to Nie Rong and his mother:
"Okay, in the future, if I want to eat the snacks you made, I will ask the guards of the county government to come and tell you, and when you make the snacks, I will let the guards send them back to the county government for me."
Nie Rong and his mother also nodded, and then said:
"As long as you want to eat, let your guards come and tell me at any time, and I'll make you a snack."
Qin Meiniang also said while eating dim sum:
"Good! Then thank you, Auntie. ”
Nie Rong and his mother also stood up and said:
"Don't be polite to me, you are going to live in the county government tomorrow, I hope you can get through this catastrophe as soon as possible, the emperor is really bold, he dares to send someone to assassinate you, it's really too much!"
Qin Meiniang also swallowed a bite of the snack she chewed in her mouth, and said seriously:
"The emperor has not been arrogant for a long time, Lord Liu has already passed the news to my former generals, telling them the news that I am still alive, and those generals also replied that they will lead their soldiers and horses to Lin'an County as soon as possible, and they will all take refuge under my command. As long as these soldiers and horses who have taken refuge in me have arrived in Lin'an County, then I will definitely be able to defeat the emperor, and when the time comes, I will lead my soldiers and horses to Kyoto City, as long as more people know the news that I am not dead. They will all take refuge in me, once that day comes, the power of the emperor will be greatly weakened, and when my power becomes stronger, the emperor will naturally be ousted from the throne, I returned to the palace again and ascended the throne to be the emperor of our Golden Phoenix Kingdom, then I will also regain my strength, and at that time, I will not suffer these tribulations again. ”
After Nie Rong and his mother heard Qin Meiniang's words, they also spoke slowly:
"That's very good, as long as those soldiers and horses who came to join you rush to Lin'an County in time, even if the emperor sends soldiers and horses to kill you, it will not succeed! If there are enough soldiers and horses to come to your refuge, then you can lead your troops to Kyoto City as soon as possible to force the emperor to abdicate, which will be good for you and our Jinfeng Kingdom! I accidentally heard a few days ago, now there is an increase in taxes, a lot of people do not have much surplus grain, hard to grow surplus grain to sell and pay taxes, many people are starved to death, this is a rare situation in the past, I did not expect that now after the second prince ascended the throne, continue to increase taxes, many people are complaining bitterly, but the people of the court simply do not care, if the people do not pay taxes on time, The local county government will send out guards to collect from one farmer to another, making the people miserable, but fortunately, Lord Liu in this Lin'an county is a good official, and he did not listen to the words of the imperial court, and dealt with and exploited the people in Lin'an County so harshly. ”
Qin Meiniang also looked like she had mixed feelings, and said:
"Don't worry, auntie! As long as I am here, I will never allow the emperor to mess around, let alone some officials in the court, and now that the emperor is in power, I have no direct order, so for the time being, I can only maintain this situation, but when I re-ascend the throne and become the emperor of our Jinfeng Kingdom in the future, I will definitely reduce the taxes and burdens of the people, and never let the people of our Jinfeng Kingdom live in dire straits. ”
Nie Rong and his mother heard Qin Meiniang say this, she also sighed and said:
"I really hope that you can take back the throne of our Golden Phoenix Kingdom as soon as possible and force the current emperor to take the throne."
After finishing speaking, Nie Rong and his mother also diverted the topic and said:
"Xiaomei! I still have to go cooking, so I won't talk to you more, and we'll talk later. ”
Qin Meiniang also nodded and said:
"Okay aunt, you go get busy first, it's not too late for us to talk in a while."
After finishing speaking, Nie Rong and his mother turned around and walked quickly out of the door of the room where Qin Meiniang was.
After Qin Meiniang saw Nie Rong and his mother go out of her room, she also looked at the plate of snacks on the wooden table, and she also said with a melancholy face:
"The dim sum made by the eldest lady is really delicious, but it's a pity that I don't have a good mood to taste it now!"
Minutes and seconds passed.
Soon, it was early the next morning.
Early in the morning, Lord Liu also took a few of his guards and carried a sedan chair to the gate of the mansion where Qin Meiniang lived.
Immediately, Lord Liu walked quickly to the courtyard where Qin Meiniang lived, ready to welcome Qin Meiniang to Lin'an County.
Lord Liu quickly entered the house where Qin Meiniang lived.
After entering Qin Meiniang's room.
I saw that Qin Meiniang also got up early, sat on the edge of the wooden table in this room, and drank water with a cup.
Qin Meiniang saw Lord Liu enter the room, and she also said to Lord Liu:
"Lord Liu, you're here."
Lord Liu also stepped forward and clasped his fists at Qin Meiniang and said:
"The lower officials see the emperor."
Qin Meiniang also immediately responded:
"Lord Liu is exempt."
Lord Liu also straightened up immediately.
Qin Meiniang also choked up, and then said to Lord Liu:
"Lord Liu is really early!"
Lord Liu was stunned, and also said:
"The lower official is thinking that the first emperor will go to the county government to live earlier, which will also have an extra security guarantee, so the lower official will come early."
