Chapter 377: Jealousy
"Everyone has heard that the prince is busy outside with the affairs of Yanwu Eleven City, and he has to deal with the relationship with the imperial court, and the princess has been supporting her behind, and she can't wait for her to work as hard as the prince."
"Some of us said in private that when the prince married the princess, we don't know which life of the previous body was the blessing and fate, and even brought it to benefit the people of our area, we are all grateful in our hearts, and we will never forget it."
Murong Lin teased, and the people around him began to be miscellaneous, and you and I continued to talk one sentence at a time. All the content is how grateful Feng Xiaoyue for her tiredness, and she praised people a little embarrassed, her face was flushed with shame, and Murong Lin proudly protected people under her arms, waving her hands to emphasize.
"Okay, I know your intentions. However, there is only one such a smart daughter-in-law in the world, and there is no way for you to be envious, so let's disperse first, don't make my wife uncomfortable. ”
These words were a bit vulgar, and Feng Xiaoyue felt that her ears were a little hot when she heard it, and she couldn't help but quietly pinch Murong Lin below. Murong Lin was in pain, and when he came back to his senses and looked at Feng Xiaoyue's appearance, he was amused and embarrassed in his heart.
Everyone saw that the two of them were flirting in front of the public, and they gradually dispersed with a smile of relief. But this teahouse was already full, and many of them had nowhere to leave.
Seeing this, Feng Xiaoyue hurriedly turned sideways to avoid Murong Lin's embrace, lifted the hem of her skirt, and pretended to go calmly to the street with Xiaoyun Xiaoyu and them. Murong Lin took a step back and chased after her, and ordered the group of officials behind him to patrol slowly, while he chased Feng Xiaoyue's back and escorted her to the place where the carriage was parked.
"You're just embarrassed. It's rare for me to see you so shy, and what I said just now was just to help you out of the siege, you shouldn't remember my anger, right? ”
Murong Lin took Feng Xiaoyue's hand, Feng Xiaoyue also took advantage of these few steps to return his face to normal, he pretended to cough, turned around, and shook his head lightly.
Xiao Yun and Xiao Yu on the side glanced at each other at a loss, and simply took advantage of this effort to go to the neighborhood to call the old horse who was drinking tea back, and by the way, they helped arrange the footstool for getting on the car in the back.
"If it happens, you can't help it, I can understand it. I'm much better now, if you still have something to do, go and get busy, and I'll have something to tell you when I get back. ”
"Now that the country is safe and secure, what can I do to be so busy." Murong Lin answered inexplicably, and then took Feng Xiaoyue's hand and leaned in to him, lowered his voice again, and asked in an extremely ambiguous attitude.
"I have one thing I need to ask you for the answer to first, I saw you from a distance on both sides of the Jieshan River on the outskirts of the city early this morning, did you also go there at that time, did you come here to know my past, or just for that little tree."
Feng Xiaoyue was embarrassed to tell him, and her face was as if nothing happened, but her earlobes were already quietly red. "I'm one step ahead of you, and I won't have the ability to be an unpredictable prophet before you."
"What you're saying doesn't mean anything. Even if it's not, it's good for you to coax me even if you say two words, do you need to say it so clearly? Murong Lin spread his hand, and his expression became lonely at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.
Feng Xiaoyue looked at her lightly for a while, if it weren't for the experience and acquaintance of living under the same roof with him in the past two years, she would have been easily frightened by Murong Lin's appearance.
"You don't have to be so sad in front of me, you're not such a fragile person, otherwise I'm afraid I'll fight you angrily. If you mentioned those little trees, I need to remind you of that as well. ”
"You say." When the words landed, Murong Lin also put away the cynical expressions on his face, and the atmosphere between Feng Xiaoyue and Feng Xiaoyue was serious, seeing that Xiaoyun and Xiaoyu behind them thought that something big was about to happen, and they were so frightened that they didn't even dare to gasp.
"Remember to let us bring the sapling down from the mountain first, until now, with all your fingers full, it should have only been five days and nights, although the tree was not very short at that time, but in such a short period of time, it can be used for at most one sapling to grow back to its original state, how can it send out so many identical trees at the same time next to it."
Feng Xiaoyue said, put her two hands up, and tilted her chin slightly, so that she could meet Murong Lin's eyes. "So I thought about the reason why the tree boss told us to bring it down in the first place, that is, because it branched so quickly,"
"But this is a plant that has only appeared in the mountains, we people under the mountain have not seen it, and it is always interesting to classify it as a category of evil things, we finally got such a plant, which can control the soil erosion on both sides of the river, but it can't be called a failure."
"I see what you mean, I thought about it when I dealt with it on the banks of the river in the morning, so you can rest assured that no one will notice the difference in its growth rate."
Listening to Feng Xiaoyue's worries, Murong Lin put his hand on her shoulder, patted her lightly twice, and then raised a faint arc at the corner of her mouth, making her look at her smile, and the sorrow in her heart could be dissipated a little.
"If someone really asks later, I'll say that I specially found someone to bring saplings from other places, and the people in the yamen are almost all Zhang Fengyu and Hu Rihui's subordinates,"
"You've dealt with these two people, and they're not the same pedantic old men, so the people under them also have brains, and they won't be easily fooled or scared me, so can you feel better?"
"It turns out that you have already thought about this issue, it seems that I am really a little worried, why can't I feel at ease with you like this." Feng Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief and laughed twice more self-deprecatingly.
"The capable work hard, the wise think more, it's a good thing to have this heart, if you really ignore me, I feel sad." Seeing this, Murong Lin shook his head nonchalantly, and then carefully escorted Feng Xiaoyue to the carriage.
"If we are free today, let's go back early, now that we are finally settled, we have to go back to the palace, talk to my father, the princess, and the princess, report safety, and reunite the family."
Feng Xiaoyue only went up two steps, listening to his words, she couldn't help but purse her mouth and didn't want to talk, and then Murong Lin added.
"Don't worry, the mother concubine doesn't know what she's thinking about these days, she has been in peace for a long time, and even her subordinates have not been punished at will, I don't think I will point the finger at you again, let's have a good meal and say a word as a family, and it will be regarded as the filial piety that we moved to the small courtyard and can't always accompany our side."
Hearing this, this name is very difficult to refuse, and Feng Xiaoyue can't say anything more, if she also stays by the side of the old man of the Feng family, she is also looking forward to Murong Lin being able to accompany her home to see more.
Feng Xiaoyue did not refuse, she was silent, and it could be regarded as acquiescence. Murong Lin was happy in his heart, so he simply went home with Feng Xiaoyue first.
said that in the palace, although Murong Yin was confined to the courtyard by Murong Yu before, and was not allowed to enter and leave at will, the eyeliner that he set up everywhere outside was not in vain.
Even if he stays at home, Murong Yin has various ways to hear the news from the outside. At this time, half a month has passed since the small tree grown, and the previous row of small saplings that were half a person tall has now grown into large branches several feet high.
And the spacing is very even, and it spreads densely from the river bank. The water of the river is clear, and the soil is crisp and loose, so that it is easy to see the roots of the trees that emerge from the soil when you get water from the shore, but the part of the land is clearly felt to be much stronger.
Especially on the side of the embankment, the difference is particularly noticeable. The people sent by Murong Lin observed the growth of the tree and found that the saplings on the shore could stabilize the soil, while the saplings that grew away from the flat ground seemed to have other effects.
The climate and ecology of the domain are slightly harsh, and water shortages and droughts are common, but among these problems, water sources are particularly important. Controlling the movement of underground water flow is equivalent to controlling the lifeblood of the people.
When they saw that there were saplings growing very strong on the dry soil flat ground far from the water source, they were also a little puzzled, so they dug down with a few shovels along the side of the roots, but without much effort, they dug up the water from the well in the ground.
Even if there are mountains and rivers passing by now, and there is no longer a shortage of water, this is already a special surprise for them.
For this reason, people learned that these saplings not only have the role of consolidating water and soil, but also have the ability to predict groundwater, and he is even more grateful. However, Murong Lin thought that it was better not to waste too much, so he spent some effort and told all those who knew about this matter to shut up.
Fortunately, the peasants on the outskirts of the city are relatively simple, and if they change to the city people, it is really difficult to guarantee that they will not publicize it everywhere.
And although these things happened outside, Murong Yin waited for a while, and it took a little effort to inquire about it.
Especially when he heard that Murong Lin led Feng Xiaoyue to the mansion from time to time, and reunited with Murong Yu and Han Yufeng, the family reunited and talked peacefully, but he had to be locked up in the courtyard, lonely and helpless, Murong Yin was even more unconvinced.
Murong Yin angrily broke several brushes in his hand, and finally came to his heart, and bought a few people from the outside to be his helpers, making Murong Lin unhappy.
