In order to promote the popularization of sweet potatoes and other crops, Zhu Gui ordered that as long as he was the owner of Yunzhou City, he did not need to pay a penny for the purchase in the first year, and only needed to sign a contract to get three points of the harvest obtained in the next year on behalf of the royal palace.

As soon as these words came out, Yunzhou City exploded.

The landlords, who had originally taken a wait-and-see attitude towards this matter, rushed to submit their names and acres to the caravan of the royal palace.

Zhu Gui drew up a contract for his subordinates to distribute, and then entered the warehouse to exchange several large bags of seeds.

"Why is there so much noise in the house lately?" Xu Miaoqing sat in front of the dresser and asked casually.

"Princess, the prince recently sent seeds to the landlord, and those people rushed to the palace to receive them for fear that they would not be able to receive them, so they were a little noisy." Ah Zhu said while combing Xu Miaoqing's long hair.

"Who knows what kind of moth he is doing, tell him to let him do things quietly, don't make noise to the princess."

For some reason, a nameless fire rose in Xu Miaoqing's heart.

Since the night of the wedding, Zhu Gui has never been to the main room, even if he sees her, he avoids her like a tiger, and he can't let out a burst of anger in his heart.

Doing some messy things every day, and not looking at yourself with your eyes.

Are those things better than newlyweds?

Ah Zhu shrunk his neck behind him, not daring to answer.

can only be honestly spoken.

When he heard Ah Zhu trembling and relaying the princess's words, Zhu Gui shook his head with a smile.

Since refined salt was put into the market, he hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time, let alone deliberately avoided Xu Miaoqing, and he simply left the matter of marrying the princess behind.

This girl is not a good stubble, after a moment of silence, Zhu Gui said: "Tell the princess that this king is very busy, if she is really bored, this king can allow her to go out of the house to play." ”

Hearing this, Ah Zhu's face was overjoyed, and he went back to report it happily.

However......

"What!" Xu Miaoqing slapped the table angrily, "Did he really say that?" ”

"Yes......" Ah Zhu lowered his head and muttered, a little confused.

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to go out and play, she hasn't seen the outside world since she came to the palace for half a month.

"Good! Since there is no place for Miss Ben in this palace, Miss Ben won't bother him now! ”

Although the straw bag said that he was bored and could go out for a walk, didn't the meaning of his words mean that he was in the way of his eyes in the palace?

Xu Miaoqing rushed into the room to clean up, and Ah Zhu rushed into the room after him, "Princess...... What are you doing here? ”

"Don't call me princess, he Zhu Gui thinks that Miss Ben wants to be this rotten princess!" Xu Miaoqing sneered as she cleaned up her things.

"This?" Ah Zhu was a little overwhelmed.

He immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Where Miss goes, Zhu'er will go." “

After saying that, immediately ran to pack up his things.

Xu Miaoqing thought while packing up her clothes that she also needed to be entangled when she left the palace, so she secretly went to Zhu Gui's study.

"You are not allowed to enter without an order from the prince." The guard at the door stopped Xu Miaoqing.

"I am the princess of the palace, which place can I not go? Get out of the way! Xu Miaoqing clenched her fists in her sleeves, she was born in a family of Jiangmen, and a mere guard can still be knocked down.

"The prince said-" Before the guard finished speaking, Xu Miaoqing slapped his palm on his neck.

The guard fainted, and when Xu Miaoqing entered the study, he saw a wooden box on the desk.

When she opened it, she found that it was a stack of silver tickets, her eyes lit up, and she unceremoniously stuffed them all into her arms.

In the evening, when Zhu Gui returned to the study after the reception, he saw the guards who had fainted on the ground.

"Not good!" He rushed into the room in a hurry, and all the silver tickets for the refined salt sold in the past few days disappeared.

Hurriedly woke up the guard, and as soon as the guard opened his eyes, he said, "Lord, it was the princess who knocked her subordinates unconscious."

"Princess?"

Zhu Gui's eyes narrowed, and he hurriedly ran to the main room, only to see Xu Miaoqing's clothes all gone.

His face sank, this girl can go, and he actually took away all the silver tickets he earned during this time.

Your Xu family is not short of money! Lao Tzu is missing!

Seeing that his prince's face was ugly, everyone didn't dare to touch their brows at this time.

"Someone, send someone to get the princess back!"

Zhu Gui gritted his teeth and walked into the study with a painful face.

However, at dusk, Ah Zhu ran into the study with a bloody face.

"Woo woo, please save the princess!" Ah Zhu fell to his knees and cried.

"Speak slowly." Zhu Gui frowned.

It was only a moment later that he learned what had happened.

It turned out that Xu Miaoqing and Ah Zhu didn't go far after leaving the city when they encountered a group of robbers, and those people seemed to be coming at Xu Miaoqing, so she secretly stuffed the silver ticket to Ah Zhu and asked him to escape and report the news.

As soon as Azhu finished speaking, someone handed him an envelope.

"Lord Wang, this is sent by a child at the door, saying that he wants the prince to open it himself."

Zhu Gui took it and opened it, and his face sank instantly.

The letter said: If you want to save Xu Miaoqing, you need to personally send 100,000 taels of silver tickets to the Luoyun Cave at noon tomorrow, and if there is a second person with you, you will kill the princess.

Zhu Gui sneered when he saw the words that he needed to personally send the silver ticket on behalf of the king.

You don't have to guess that this gang is definitely a local salt dealer.

The fine salt he sold some time ago was only lower in quality than refined salt, but the price was on par with coarse salt, and the interests of salt dealers in Yunzhou City were greatly impacted, and the prices of coarse salt and salt fell again and again.

"These salt dealers rely on salt to raise the price of salt on weekdays, so that the common people once couldn't afford to eat salt, and now they dare to hit the king with their ideas, it's really tired."

Zhu Gui snorted coldly, and he turned around and went back to the warehouse.

This matter started because of him, he must save Xu Miaoqing, and this group of people is obviously aimed at him, as he expected, the salt dealer should want to get the silver ticket and get rid of him by the way.

Zhu Gui clicked on the mall to exchange 200 experience points for a pistol, and came to Luoyun Cave on time the next day.

As soon as he entered the cave, he felt a murderous aura, Zhu Gui clenched his pistol, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps in the dark cave, and the next moment, he was instantly surrounded by more than a dozen robbers.

Zhu Gui secretly said that it was not good, he did not expect that the number of kidnappers was more than a dozen, and the bullets in his pistol were only ten.

A person slowly walked out of the cave, carrying the dying Xu Miaoqing in his hand.

"The relationship between the acting king and the princess is really good, and they are not afraid of danger when they come alone, and their courage is commendable." The robbers laughed.

Zhu Gui said coldly, "Let her go, this king may spare your life." ”

"Hahaha!"

The kidnapper seemed to hear something ridiculous, and he approached Zhu Gui holding his knife, "The acting king still can't recognize the situation?" Hurry up and hand over the silver ticket! ”

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and the robber led by him fell to the ground, and a bloody hole appeared in his forehead!

Seeing this, the rest of the robbers' eyes widened with horror.

What kind of secret weapon is this?

It's so fast that people can't react!

Zhu Gui turned around, looked at everyone, and said coldly, "Who wants to die?" This king fulfills him!? ”

Everyone looked at each other.

Suddenly, one of them stood up and shouted, "Don't be afraid, brothers, there is only one acting king!" ”

"It's a capital crime for us to kidnap the princess, and only by killing the acting king can we have a chance of survival! Kill! “

As he spoke, the man took the lead in rushing towards Zhu Gui.

Zhu Gui's eyes were cold, and he raised his hand to shoot.

However, there were too many people rushing over.

The bullets were cleaned, and more than a dozen people were still alive.

Buying a pistol again, Zhu Gui hurriedly swept towards the remaining robbers.

Seeing that Zhu Gui's hidden weapon seemed to be endless, the red-eyed robber just now panicked.

Seeing this, the other kidnappers immediately ran towards the cave, and when one of them passed by Xu Miaoqing, who was almost unconscious, there was a fierce light in his eyes, and he took out a knife and slashed it down.
