Chapter 12 The heart is so tired, strange people
"But there are more people with the surname Guo in the world, and there are not many people with the surname 'Guo'." Guo angrily snorted, but he couldn't hide his arrogance.
"Alas!" Cai Guan couldn't listen to it anymore, and now he was thinking that if this was not his own cousin, if he was not his aunt's only son, and he was really a little afraid of that aunt, he really wanted to slash him to death.
After Cai Guan had the omen of the drought, he wrote a secret report back to Beijing to report the matter, and the private report was a loyalty to the royal family, and a public fold was a contempt for the imperial power.
As a result, the royal family actually sent him this little brat? What can this little kid do.
Think about how his benevolent uncle and smart aunt gave birth to such a stinky little child?
"Aunt and the prince are okay?" Cai Guan decided to ask something useful.
"Look at your hard work, and if you call 'uncle', no one will say that you rely on my father to walk the rivers and lakes." Guo Nufei made a strange face to his cousin.
"Otherwise, you go out for a walk, I don't want to see you for a while." Cai Guan glared at him, and then said speechlessly.
He can say that if the Cai family hadn't married their daughter into the royal family, they would have been in power long ago. It is Prince Youren and Princess Youren that they are hindered everywhere?
Guo Nufei still has love for this cousin, gave him a grimace, got up and ran out.
Cai Guan exhaled, shook his head, and slowly took another sip of tea, as if he was calming his mood.
Guo Nufei was outside the county office, but it was Master Hong who saw the appearance of that cool brother, and he looked up and inspected Cai Guan's territory with his head held high.
Although it is doomed to have no harvest this year, but in the market, it is still relatively calm, Cai Guan is a promising young man, even if he generally does not want to call Prince Shuren as his uncle, but he can marry his aunt into the royal Cai family, which has never been despised by anyone.
For the sake of Cai Guan's future, Guo Nufei also has to make this trip, and he must not let the drought affect Cai Guan's political performance. This will affect the completion of his three-year term and return to Beijing. The Cai family already has a layout, but it can't all be disappointed for this. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here in person.
But even so, Guo Nufei was still unhappy that Master Hong had mentioned Xinjia Village just now.
It is not yet four months, and they dare to blackmail the imperial court. He was born in the royal family, and he was born with a sense of superiority, 'There are not many people in this world, but there are indeed many people.' ’
At this time, he came out, and what he wanted to do most was to go to Xinjia Village to have a look. Let's see what they can afford to do so.
"Master!" A pair of black hands grabbed the reins of Guo Nufei's horse.
"Get out of the way!" Guo Nufei has been with Gu Hong, who has grown up with him since childhood.
"Master, the prince asked you not to leave the land of the soldiers." Gu Hong looked rigid.
They came to investigate the disaster this time, and in addition to the soldiers of the palace, they also brought some people from the military department. Prince Ren Guo Han is also such a son, and he specially instructed Gu Hong not to let Guo Nufei come around.
"The master is ordered to investigate the disaster, so it is impossible to go out of the city at this time to see?" Guo Nufei looked at Gu Hong indignantly.
"Yes, wait for the small ones to recruit government soldiers." Gu Hong is still a one-eye.
"The master is a messenger, go out of the city to investigate the disaster, you dare to stop it, be careful that the master will punish your crimes." Guo Fufei's teeth were about to be crushed.
Gu Hong didn't speak, just pulled the reins with both hands.
"Then you let them stay away from Ye Ye and don't let people see it. Back to those traitorous ministers complained to the imperial brother, saying that it was not good for the lord to run rampant in the township. Guo Fufei retracted the anger he had just had, and let go of the hand holding the reins with a dark face.
Gu Hong nodded, but he took Guo Nufei's horse and left.
As soon as Guo Fufei turned around, he smiled, pulled Gu Hong's horse, jumped up, and galloped away outside the city.
Gu Hong could only jump on Guo Nufei's horse and chase after him, shouting as he chased.
"Master!"
Guo Fufei ignored him and ran forward.
"Xinjia Village is in the south, this is the way to the West Gate." Gu Hong yelled helplessly behind his back.
In addition to his almost temperament, the biggest problem of this master is that he is a road idiot, in this way, he even thinks that he can be a general, every time Gu Hong sees him taking the wrong road, he has an urge to die.
The horse in front of him finally stopped, and turned his head a little embarrassed.
Gu Hong pointed to the south.
Guo Nufei grimaced at him, flicked the reins, and ran towards the city gate to the south.
Gu Hong could only follow behind, helplessly clamping the horse's belly.
Xin Kun ate and did not mix in the workshop, but went to see the inventory first.
She believed that the county would agree to their offer to try millet farming, but they still had to prepare first.
The people in a village, as well as the people in the workshop, are all from neighboring villages, and they still have families, so they can't be ignored, so she feels like a bag now.
In addition to the grain in the warehouse, there are also rice seeds and wheat seeds left in a corner, but everyone knows that there is no hope for this year, so these are well placed in the warehouse.
"It's really not possible, this can be a few more days." Uncle Li gently put his hand into the full seed, and his face was miserable.
"Why do we keep the seeds?" Xin Kun is just here to get some grain, not to see the rice seeds.
"You don't know? The land outside the village belongs to our family. Uncle Li thought about it, as if he hadn't given the general account to Xin Kun, and hurriedly said, "Originally, our family was a grandson, and the land outside the village belonged to the grandson. It was distributed to the clansmen before, but later, they felt that they were too disadvantaged to bear the field tax, and they insisted on paying it back. So it's not from the clan, it's just the only one of the clans. Then the descendants rented the land to them, and they loved to plant but not to plant. ”
Xin Kun felt that he was a little out of breath, so this was the real reason why Xin Ye's son ran away without looking back, right? When people are patriarchs, they step on the clansmen to be powerful and blessed, and the Xin family is the patriarch, and the result is that they really make cattle and horses for the clansmen!
"Well, if we give the land to the clansmen now, I guess no one will ask for it, right?" Xin Kun clutched his chest and looked at Lao Li, what kind of family is this, no one wants to give away land for nothing.
Lao Li nodded, when there was no natural disaster before, no one wanted it, and now in this case, people will not want it.
Because no one wanted it, Xin Kun could only go to the field in the afternoon. Whether she wants this land at this time or not, she once said in an ancient book that according to the rules of ancient times, even if this land is yours, if you don't plant it, the government will take it back and punish it heavily.
Even if this year is a year of catastrophe, and the imperial court is exempt from taxes for one year, what about next year? This year, if you don't plant it, you can't ignore it.
In fact, it is not impossible to return the land to the county government now, but she is a good child who grew up in a well-off family, and she can't afford to buy a house, so it is really difficult for her to give up the land.
