At noon, in order to avoid another accident, the barracks had been urgently packed up and ready to return to Beijing, the auspicious grain was wrapped in yellow silk cloth and put into wooden boxes, more than a dozen soldiers were carefully carried down the mountain, the soldiers stared, the tension of the enemy's attack on the camp had been swept away, and the eyes were full of hope and pride. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Because Xiangyun wanted to pretend that the injury did not come out, Shen Yue only brought Pinglan to see him off.

"His Royal Highness King Zhou, this book is a record of the cultivation and consumption of auspicious grains, and when I return to Beijing, I will ask His Royal Highness to gather people to let these crops be popularized as soon as possible."

Zhu Su took the book, flipped through a few pages, and said with a smile,

"Shen Dongjia is attentive, after returning to Beijing, King Gu must be enlightened to his father, you have made great contributions this time, and your father will definitely have a reward for you, but it's a pity that you are now a businessman, otherwise you may be able to be an official and a marquis."

Shen Yue didn't care about being an official, he didn't want to be in the court when he changed his household registration, although the businessmen in Shinong Industry and Commerce were considered to be the most humble professions, but this was actually to a certain extent deliberately done by the businessmen, only by making people look down on them, not caring, and feeling that there was no threat, so that they could be calm, as the saying goes, the water flows to a low place, and put their position low, in order to gather more resources and wealth.

Shen Yue hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice,

"I don't dare to hope for the gifts of the imperial court, but I hope that the people can plant these auspicious crops and eat a full meal, and they must not only be caught in the hands of some powerful people and make profits from them, so that the auspicious crops are not promoted, but they harm the people."

Zhu Su heard him say this, a little impatient, he really has plans to find some cronies to plant first, such a high-yield crop only needs to be planted for two or three years to harvest a lot, when the time comes, hoarding Juqi, can earn a lot of silver, although he is a prince, but his father is very strict, there is not much money at hand, and whether or not he can fight for the throne, even after being sent to the feudal land, he also needs a large amount of silver to operate. After all, you Shen Yue is still just a businessman, where is it your turn to worry about the affairs of the court, so he said perfunctorily,

"Don't worry, these kings naturally know, you go and say goodbye to King Yan first, he is waiting for you." After saying that, he turned around and got into the chariot.

Zhu Su's mind Shen Yue couldn't guess how he shook his head with a little disappointment.

I thought that this future prince of scientific research would choose to stay and carry out the planting and promotion of new crops, but now looking at his attitude, not only to leave, but also to profit from these new crops. Perhaps it was because he had not yet experienced the coming tribulations, and that he did not empathize with the suffering of the people, and that these were just interests for him, but did not have a sense of mission from the bottom of his heart.

Perhaps a person has to walk a long way and experience countless sudden prosperity and desolation in life before he becomes mature and realizes his responsibility.

Shen Yue felt that he was a bit like the Tang monk who persuaded Sun Wukong to go to the west to learn scriptures in the Journey to the West, maybe he would stand with him when Zhu Su came to his senses.

King Yan walked over with Mu Ying with a smile and patted Shen Yue on the shoulder.

"Brother Shen is not in a good mood, are you worried that the lonely king will encounter some trouble after leaving? There is no need to care about this, that county commander Ouyang Chen is the person of the lonely king, when he was in Zhongshu Province to impeach Hu Weiyong and was convicted, it was the lonely king who protected him, and arranged for him to serve here, if you encounter difficulties, you can go to him. Even if you go south later, the lonely king will find someone to say hello, you can search for medicinal materials with peace of mind, the queen mother's condition is critical, and my brother will be waiting for you to come in the capital as soon as possible. ”

He is implying that there are people around him who are watching, otherwise how can he rest assured that he will take a detour to the south and then go to the capital, the burden on his shoulders seems to be difficult to shake off, Shen Yue secretly worried.

"Your Highness, rest assured, I should do my best, the Shen family has also found some miracle medicines from overseas and stored in the ancestral house over the years, which should also play a role."

"That's good, when you go back to the capital, call your sister, she saved the life of the lonely king, and thank her when the time comes, your Shen family made a lot of efforts when the capital was built, but unfortunately there was an accident, and now it is time to buy an industry in the capital."

Although Zhu Di said it implicitly, he could also hear his admiration for Xiangyun, he was a little tempted when they first met before, not to mention that this woman gave up her life to block the sword.

"Thank you Your Highness for your kindness, the Shen family has suffered many hardships, everything is not settled, I dare not show off in front of others, wait for the family to discuss, and the matter of doing business in the capital needs to be discussed in the long run."

Shen Yue replied noncommittally that whether Xiangyun would come to the capital or whether she had any thoughts about Zhu Di or not, she still had to make her own decision, and she didn't want to exchange women for peace.

"Father-in-law, I have prepared some pills for you to prevent insect miasma, and you have to go to pacify Yunnan, where the climate is not good, you need to take care of your health." Pinglan sensed Shen Yue's embarrassment, wittily diverted the topic, took out a delicate backpack and handed it to Mu Ying.

Mu Ying is usually very serious, but when she sees Pinglan, she likes it, and the shelf that has always been close to people has also changed, and when she sees people, she boasts that she has received a good-looking and clever daughter, carrying the backpack handed by Pinglan, and her face is full of smiles.

"Haha, I'll just say that this daughter is good, how filial piety, if I let my old brothers know, they will definitely envy them, but it's a pity that you have to run around with Shen Xiaozi at a young age, and you can't take you with you because of your father's imperial order, although the southern coast has been unified for many years, but there are still Japanese invaders who often invade, it is really difficult for you to be a father, let Zhao Meng bring some brothers to protect you, see which one who doesn't know each other dares to bully our precious girl." In addition, he also happened to go to see Lao Tang for me, he is now building a city in Hangzhou, let him see, our daughter is no worse than his sons. ”

Shen Yue knew in his heart that he had the heart to help him but didn't say it directly, not only sent his own personal guards to accompany him, but also hinted that he could go to General Tang He in Hangzhou if he was in trouble, this kind of good intentions made Shen Yue grateful. His earnest teachings came to mind, and he secretly made up his mind that he must let him see in his lifetime that the people of the Ming Dynasty created by his bloody struggle can live a life of abundant food and clothing.

The army finally set out, like a winding dragon, carrying the seeds of hope, solemnly and firmly running into the distance.

Shen Yue and his party also packed up and prepared to return to the city, Zhao Meng led more than a dozen burly strong men to protect the carriage with grain, they had already changed into ordinary clothes, like a team of folk darts. The Ming Dynasty had very strict control over military generals, and he could not lead troops without a military order, and Mu Yingneng had taken a great risk by sending these dozen personal guards to protect himself, but since he said it openly, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, did not stop it, as Zhu Yuanzhang's most trusted general, this face is still there.

"Brother Shen, let's go, let's go back to the city together." Shen Yue was still looking at the army in the distance, but Chang Mao came up.

"Hey, why haven't you returned to the capital?"

"Alas, don't mention it, we are no one's life, the court ordered our army to continue to defend the border here, and we can't go back for two or three years, so it's okay, the mother-in-law of the provincial family is noisy in our ears, and we don't need to listen to the lessons of the old man."

Chang Mao shook his head helplessly, sighing,

"It's just that the brothers who followed me were brought over with 3,000 at the beginning, but now it's only been a month or two, and there are still about 1,000 dead and wounded, so what face do I have to see the relatives of those dead soldiers? It's a pity that we are penniless and can't give them some compensation for settling down, so we can't do it, so we will return to our ancestral business, and we have to give an explanation to the brothers after fighting for this life. ”

What does it mean to return to the ancestral business? Your father Chang Yuchun was born as a thief, blocking the road and robbing, entering the house as a thief, he has never done anything bad, if it weren't for the chaos of the world, there would be no way out of the robbery, so he defected to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Shen Yue knew that he was complaining so much because he wanted to ask for his help, although Chang Mao's temperament was a little hanging, but he also had some righteousness, which helped him repeatedly, and those soldiers were also martyrs who died for the country and the people, and they really couldn't let them die in vain.

"Brother Chang, don't worry, I have thought of a way for you, to ensure that not only will you be able to fight the border easily, but also earn some silver taels to comfort the soldiers."
