Chapter 296: First Sight of Xue Fei

Three carriages walked on the street in turn, Xia Sihan opened the curtain and looked outside, Chu was frozen and icy all day long, and the pedestrians on the road were wearing heavy cotton clothes and running around for a living.

It seems that Beichen Ink Dye is not without pursuit, at least he can understand the problem of Chu State, otherwise he will not let her solve the problem of growing food.

It's just that he never thought that the seeds were all in trouble, how could he grow good crops? Today, King Ping took her to find seeds, probably because of Beichen's promise, otherwise she wouldn't have suddenly mentioned it.

Thinking of this, Xia Sihan put down the curtain and asked softly, "What's the news from Fengyue Tower recently?" ”

Xiao Jiu pondered for a moment, suddenly thought of something, and replied: "Fengyue Tower's business has been very prosperous recently, in the past, it was only mostly businessmen, but now most of them are officials. ”

Fengyue Tower opens the door to do business, no matter who it is, as long as there is silver, you can enter. Xia Sihan didn't care about how business was in the past, it was just to collect intelligence. But now that so many officials have come, it is indeed unusual.

If it is usually a colleague who gets along with each other, there is no need to come so often, and now it seems that there is a change in the Chu dynasty?

"Let's go to Fengyue Tower tonight and see how many officials there are. In addition, so many officials gathered in Fengyue Tower, Beichen Moran was so suspicious, it was impossible not to know. We have to think of a countermeasure, and we can't let him find an excuse to close my restaurant. ”

Xia Sihan is most worried about this, if their restaurant is affected because of their party, it will be more than worth the loss.

The three carriages traveled for about a stick of incense, and the carriage suddenly stopped, and the two looked out at the same time, and it turned out that they had arrived.

After going down, Xia Sihan was stunned by the scene in front of him, this is a field not far from the capital. It is said that it is a field, but in fact, it is more than a dozen acres of wasteland reclaimed, I thought that the grain here was specially supplied to the royal family, and it should be of the highest quality, but this is covered with ice and snow in front of me, and only the poles are left in the exposed.

"This, this is the best field you are talking about?"

Hearing Xia Sihan's question, a trace of loneliness flashed on King Ping's face, and he nodded and admitted: "Indeed, what you see in front of you is the truth." Our Chu country is cold and snowy all year round, and it is already good to be able to grow and live, you go inside and take a look, it is better there. ”

Following King Ping's instructions, Xia Sihan walked inside. The fields here are fenced, and in the intervals you can see a few farmers dressed as croppers busy in the fields, shoveling aside the snow and ice and sprinkling plant ash as fertilizer.

Xia Sihan had seen this method in the countryside, but it didn't seem to work well in Chu State.

"That's it ahead."

King Ping's voice brought her back to her senses, and she felt a little relieved as she looked at the land surrounded by oilcloth in front of her.

"The tarpaulin is protected from the cold, and a brazier is raised inside, and it is guarded every day. The dishes here are exclusively for the palace, but even that is not enough. ”

Listening to King Ping's narration, Xia Sihan bowed his head slightly.

"Although the measures you have taken have some results, it is difficult to guarantee the output. In addition to the seeds, the soil and water quality are also easily affected, so let's go and see the seeds first. ”

Xia Sihan proposed, and several people were about to pass over, but they saw a white figure in front of them quickly coming here. When she got closer, Xia Sihan saw that it was a woman, but she didn't know why King Xuan next to her changed his face?

King Ping laughed, turned his head to look at Mo Xuan and said, "This Lord Xuefei is really in love with you, no matter where you go, you can see her figure, how does it feel to be remembered like this?" ”

"Boring!"

Mo Xuan spit out these two words in his mouth, and the Lord of Xuefei had already arrived. Seeing Xia Sihan beside him, Lord Xuefei was a little curious, but he still saluted in accordance with the rules.

"Xue Fei has seen King Ping and King Xuan."

Xia Sihan knew that she was King Xuan's marriage partner, so he bent his knees to meet her.

"Xia Sihan has seen the county lord."

Seeing Xue Fei's surprised face, King Ping said with a smile: "I forgot to introduce, this is Mrs. Li Shao, who has a gambling contract with the emperor, and this is the future Princess Xuan." ”

"I know you, they all say that you are from Murong Country, thanks to you for taking care of Mo Xuan when you were in Murong Kingdom, thank you!"

Xue Fei's appearance like a hostess made Mo Xuan frown, Xia Sihan just shook his head and smiled: "In the past, when King Xuan was still the fifth prince, he was also a guest in Murong Kingdom, and my husband Li Jinyan was an official in the court, and he also had dealings with the five princes. It's not about taking care of it, it's just a good reception on the orders of the emperor. ”

Xia Sihan's words made Xue Fei's face suffocated, and then added: "That's what I said!" But when you come to our territory today, it's our turn to receive you, don't you say, my lord? ”

She looked up at Mo Xuan and tugged at his sleeve to please him, but Mo Xuan didn't appreciate it.

"Young Mrs. Li is here to do business, not on behalf of Murong Guo, so there is no need to receive it. Today, she came here to serve the emperor's order, so don't miss someone's business. ”

Hearing this, a touch of embarrassment flashed on Xue Fei's face, and Xia Sihan couldn't help but think of Luoluo when she saw her like this. At the same age, the appearance is comparable, but Luoluo lives more wantonly, and it is not good to think that the family background of this Xuefei county lord is not good.

Seeing her submissive look, Xia Sihan wanted to say a few words, but just as she was about to speak, she was quietly pulled by a person on her sleeve. Next to her was Xiao Jiu, and only Li Jinyan was standing behind, so Xia Sihan closed his mouth.

In the end, King Ping couldn't stand it, and said: "Mo Xuan, even if it's a business, you don't need to be serious. Since the county lord Xuefei has a heart, let's stay for a meal, I wonder if the county lord can go and prepare it? ”

Hearing this, Lord Xuefei's eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded again and again.

"Later, I will let people prepare!" After saying that, she bowed slightly and turned around and walked in, but no one noticed that the moment she turned around, her eyes were cold.

"County Lord, live here?"

Xia Sihan couldn't help but ask, and King Ping explained: "Actually, she is also a poor person, her father King Nan died to save the first emperor, and she is the only one in the palace who has a serious idea." Originally, the emperor rewarded her with a fiefdom, wanting her to stay there for a long time, away from the strife in the capital, but he didn't want her to come over, and asked for a place to stay here. ”

King Ping was also embarrassed when he talked about this, Xia Sihan guessed the county lord's thoughts. Thinking about it, she was unwilling to be left behind, otherwise how could she ask for a reputation by herself, and she still found Mo Xuan.

Who doesn't know the subtle relationship between Mo Xuan and Beichen Mo Dye, the two of them are dying each other, but they don't dare to really tear their faces, and they are still brothers and friends on the surface. Xue Fei squeezed in at this time, ostensibly Princess Xuan, but in fact she didn't do Beichen ink-dyed eyeliner. It's just that the county lord's life in the palace will not be easy in the future, in fact, these have nothing to do with her, she is just being used.
