Chapter 273: Changyue Kingdom

The roads in the village are naturally not as good as the roads renovated in the capital, and the roads outside the capital are all bluestone slabs, while the roads in the village are paved with stones that they went to the mountains to quarry.

The winding path is secluded, and the stone slabs are smooth by the villagers, so they don't really dirty their shoes.

But the village was filled with the smell of livestock and grass, which made people very uncomfortable, and many ministers covered their mouths and noses as soon as they entered, for fear of being dirty by these smells.

Prime Minister Shen was not used to this kind of smell originally, but seeing that the queen mother was all right, as if she was used to these smells, she put back the hand that was covering her mouth and nose.

After walking for about a few minutes, they finally came to the legendary pig shed.

I saw that the pig shed was built very wide, and the wild boars brought down from the mountains could give birth, and a total of six piglets were born.

These six little piglets are also strong, and very edible, they look dark skin, and the meat is also coarse.

As for the wild boar, because it still has to produce milk, it was taken care of by Zhu Jiu very well, and when he saw Zhu Jiu, he lost the wildness he had at the beginning, and he was very close to her.

Zhu Jiu whistled, and these little piglets obediently ran towards her, wagging their tails at her very closely.

At this time, the ministers remembered that their queen seemed to know the art of beast control......

This is the way in Qimen Dunjia, for a while, the ministers looked at Zhu Jiu with a little more respect than just now, and I heard that the backer behind this queen is Gao Xinguo.

Although I don't know whether her identity as a princess of a country is true or not, with her ability, no one in the court dares to despise her.

Or did the Ministry of Industry Shangshu speak first and asked, "Niangniang, how do you raise these pigs? Just tell the minister, and when the minister returns, he will definitely find a special farmer and do what you say."

"No, I have some ideas, just do an experiment with these wild boar cubs."

Zhu Jiu said so, rejecting the kindness of these ministers.

When the ministers saw her say this, they didn't say anything, but they still said: "Your Majesty has not returned to the DPRK for a long time to deal with the affairs of the court, and state affairs cannot be delayed.

"Changyue Kingdom?"

Zhu Jiu was talking to them about the fun of raising pigs, and by the way, she said something about how these wild boars should be cultivated and improved into domestic pigs, but when she heard these three words, she couldn't help but stop and looked at the Ministry of Works: "What Lord Liu said is that during the period when the Xuanyuan Kingdom and the Yan Kingdom were at war, they kept expanding their territory in the Western Regions and won tens of thousands of cities in the Western Regions?"

Changyue is a newly rising country, but this country seems to be exceptionally ambitious, the lord of Changyue originally only ruled a small country, but took advantage of the Central Plains melee, constantly conquered other countries, expanded the territory, this lord also gathered a lot of capable people.

In just one year, the Changyue Kingdom has been established from a small gang country into a big country that is not inferior to the Xuanyuan Kingdom.

However, there is a big gap between the two in terms of cultural heritage and historical heritage, so Changyue is much more barbaric than Xuanyuan Kingdom.

If you can't get along with such a country, you are afraid that when the time comes, it will be another war that will not stop for several years.

It's no wonder that these ministers want to come here in person to ask Xuanyuan Che to go back.

There was still more than half a month to go before the beginning of August, and Zhu Jiu didn't think about it for long, seeing that the Ministry of Industry Shangshu nodded to her, indicating that the Changyue Kingdom he said was the Changyue Empire, Zhu Jiu said, "I know, since this is the case, then on the day of early August, we will return to the palace."

「……」

Are they talking about letting Xuanyuan Che return to the palace on the day of early August?

In the past half a month, can't you meet the envoy from Changyue in advance?

But the six Shangshu were not good at singing against Zhu Jiu, and they all turned their eyes to Prime Minister Shen Cheng at this time, and Prime Minister Shen had no choice but to cough hard, and said to Zhu Jiu: "Niangniang, this matter is not trivial......

But he wasn't done yet

, Zhu Jiu remembered something, raised his hand to interrupt these people, and looked at them with a smile: "The harem strictly prohibits participation in the affairs of the previous dynasty, and the ministers do not go to Your Majesty to discuss this matter, and it is already illegal to say these things in front of the palace, why is it not over now?" Isn't that counting on you to persuade Your Majesty to say a few words? Who in the entire court doesn't know that his old man listens to you the most!

But thinking about it in their hearts, these ministers still smiled cheekily and said: "This matter is related to the common people in the world, and after Niangniang is a country, you have the right to know about this matter, and speaking of which, the ministers are not too much."

They talked for a long time, but they didn't see Xuanyuan Che, so they couldn't help but ask, "By the way, Niangniang, why don't you see Your Majesty here?"

Only then did Zhu Jiu look at them and smile, "You seem to have misunderstood, Your Majesty only stayed in Pingyang Village for two days, and after bringing what I wanted, he returned to the capital."

As she spoke, she suddenly realized and looked at these people, "Speaking of which, you have stayed in Pingyang Village for so long, who has left in the cabinet to explain government affairs to His Majesty?"

Prime Minister Shen: "......"

Together, they came for nothing!

So they took their leave and rushed back to the capital.

Zhu Jiu watched them leave, touched his nose, and then glanced at Gan Shaoyun, who had been watching in the dark from the beginning: "Come out if you see enough excitement, it's time to feed the pigs."

Gan Shaoyun has long lost the handsome and chic when he first came to Pingyang Village, and he looks like an ordinary scholar at the moment.

He wore ordinary linen clothes and straw sandals, and his hair was neatly tied up and tied with a cloth belt, and he came with a bucket of water to scrub the pig's trough.

"Niangniang, you shouldn't play tricks on Prime Minister Shen and them."

Xuanyuan Che just went back to the palace to get a few sets of convenient clothes, and he would be back soon, but he didn't go back to deal with internal affairs.

Zhu Jiu wiped the thin sweat from his forehead and chopped wood in the yard, "I'll give you these pigweeds."

As for Prime Minister Shen Cheng's ministers, they came to find Xuanyuan Che, what does it have to do with her?

It's possible that she said ten words, and she couldn't say a word from Xuanyuan Che, so just let him deal with these ministers.

However, the country of Changyue ......

Zhu Jiu's eyes moved slightly, and he asked Gan Shaoyun, "Have you heard of Changyue Kingdom?"

He is the general political envoy, although he is only a five-rank official, but the documents of various countries to the court will pass through his hands, hearing this, Gan Shaoyun said truthfully: "I have heard that the strength of the Changyue Kingdom is fierce, especially their lord, who is only twenty-seven years old, but can expand this small country into a big country in one year, and the strength cannot be underestimated."

After speaking, he looked at Zhu Jiu suspiciously: "But, Niangniang, why are you suddenly asking this?"

Could it be that she has anything to do with Changyue Kingdom?

Thinking of this, Gan Shaoyun's eyes were a little excited.

If this is the case, then he can participate in Zhu Jiuyi, and if he succeeds, it will at least be a capital crime of treason against the enemy!
