was invited to the front yard to be comfortable, and Lord Yao smiled when he saw him coming: "Hahaha, I have always heard that Chengkanghou Mansion is a place where talents are produced." Really! The virtuous nephew is really a talent. ”

The third prince is the cousin of Sunan Cheng. His father-in-law is indeed an uncle's generation.

It's just that this virtuous nephew is still too thunderous.

"Thanks to the eyes of adults, Nancheng is really not a weapon." Su Nancheng gave up.

"Hey, why can't you be a weapon, how old are you now, you are already a highly valued vassal of the East Palace. The future is limitless. Look at my rebels, I still don't have a decent official position. ”

While he was talking, someone came to bring tea.

Sitting down to speak, Lord Yao smiled: "Since you are here this time, I have to take care of you a little more." Some credits, you can better explain them when you go back. It is also the affection of our relatives. ”

The implication is too obvious.

Su Nancheng got up again and sighed, "Thank you, thank you for your kindness." Before you come...... Before I came, I learned that I was coming to Xianzhou, and the officials tried every means to refuse, but they were soft-spoken, and it was really fruitless. ”

The implication of his words is also obvious.

Let's both guess each other. Anyway, the tone is me towards you, and we are a family.

Lord Yao touched his beard with a puzzled face: "Why don't you want to come?" ”

He looked at Su Nancheng with a look that I didn't understand.

"When I was on an errand at the beginning, I didn't dare to say what kind of work to pick. It's just that...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone this time, but it is your place. Xia Guan actually didn't know what to do, but he was a little uneasy in his heart. He said and said: "I don't know if I want to come here, but my eldest sister in the mansion should have entered the mansion of the four princes now." I don't know who she is. It's a pity that I didn't catch up with a glass of wine. ”

"Oh, wouldn't we be closer?" Lord Yao chuckled: "It's not in the way, you have to drink this wine if it's late." There are not many heirs of the Third Highness, wouldn't it be a good thing that the virtuous niece would be able to have a few more in the future? ”

The three princes, there are not many heirs, but there are too few heirs.

Yao gave birth to two girls before giving birth to a son-in-law.

The two of them chatted hypocritically for a while, and only then was Master Yao willing to let Sunan Cheng go.

When he returned to his lodgings, he found that several people were missing.

Presumably he went to a secret investigation, but he didn't know what he was making.

Go and meet with Master Ma, at least you can't be idle.

Master Ma smiled: "I didn't pay attention to this before, this Yao family really has a lot to do with the Chengkang Hou Mansion." Presumably, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't expect this either. It's embarrassing for you now. ”

"The lower officials who said this are really frightened, and an errand is an errand. Although Master Yao does have some relationship with my family, it does not delay me from doing things. Your Excellency, just rest assured, since you are now a vassal of the East Palace, you naturally only have His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in your heart. Sunan Cheng said.

Master Ma laughed and just patted him on the shoulder.

Soon began to do some superficial work, since it was ordered by the prince to check last year's taxes, there are people who can be transferred.

In fact, there is a problem with Xianzhou's taxes, not only last year?

The problem of Xianzhou is not only taxes, a few days later, Su Nancheng knew that the prince was talking about tax inspection, in fact, it was Xianzhou.

What can you see just by looking at the books?

It's not easy for them to go deep into the fields, and Lord Yao has transferred the people in this house away, but as long as you go out, someone will follow you.

Except for those who were scattered on the first day, they were not free after that.

And it is also very dangerous to press forward like this.

After all, a few of them didn't come from the bright road, if they really provoked each other, maybe it would be a trivial matter to die in Xianzhou.

The crown prince will never make a big deal with the three princes because of them.

Now the national fortune of Dayuan is not as good as a year, and the north is too squeezed by Beidi. Every year, I send things in the name of a clever purpose. It's the same as following up on Gong.

There are always riots among the people.

So where the life is not easy, originally Xianzhou is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and the land is fertile. It is one of the best granaries in Dayuan.

The rice here is harvested twice a year, and the rice produced is the best in Dayuan.

It stands to reason that the people here should be doing well.

But that's not the case with the people you see on the streets. They are completely different from the people who live in the capital.

Su Nancheng walked on the street with Lian Sheng, accompanied by Master Yao.

He saw a man in his forties coming out of a grain store, his face angry.

Sunan Cheng's heart moved, and he didn't speak at the moment.

After walking for a while, he suddenly said: "The rice in Xianzhou is the most delicious, how can the food in the past few days be similar to that in the capital?" Could it be that I didn't eat it? ”

The man who followed him laughed and said, "How come, it must be the person who prepares the meal who is not careful." ”

Su Nancheng smiled and said: "Maybe they think that we are from the capital, and they are afraid that they will not be used to eating the local area?" ”

He smiled: "Lian Sheng, you go buy some, buy a dozen catties, let's go back and taste it." I'm not going, I'm waiting for you outside. ”

He pointed across the street: "There's a shop there." ”

The people who followed didn't think much of it.

Lian Sheng sighed and went.

After a short time, he came out with ten catties of rice and said with a smile: "Childe, it is very fragrant, and it is estimated that it is better than the capital." ”

Su Nancheng smiled: "Okay, Xianzhou is good, it's hot, I'm going to die of sunburn." Let's go back. ”

The man smiled and echoed a few words, and then sent them back to the courtyard.

"Childe, do you really want to eat rice?" Lian Sheng was curious.

"Hehe, what's the price of this rice?"

"Uh, nine cents a pound." Liansheng Road.

Su Nancheng raised his eyebrows: "Don't you think it's expensive?" ”

Lian Sheng scratched his head: "It's expensive?" The rice in our house seems to be said to be dozens of dollars a catty. The small ones still think this rice is cheap. You haven't bought it either, have you? ”

Su Nancheng chuckled and shook his head: "It's okay." ”

He got up and went to see Master Ma.

"I went out after the official and bought ten catties of rice and came back. It took ninety wen. This Xianzhou noble land is really not something that ordinary people can survive. ”

Master Ma looked at Sunan Cheng in surprise, I don't know if it was because of the price of rice or because of his behavior.

"Ninety?"

"yes, ninety." Su Nancheng chuckled: "What do you think, adult?" ”

"Daring!" Master Ma said angrily.

Su Nancheng still smiled: "It's such a high price, and the lower official can't buy much rice for a year." ”

"Nancheng, I know all your thoughts. When I return to Beijing, I will inform His Highness. Master Ma patted him on the shoulder: "Right now, let's work together to get things done here." ”

Su Nancheng took a step back and arched his hand: "Yes, don't worry, as long as you can use the lower officials, just command." ”

When I returned to the house, I was puzzled: "Is this really expensive?" ”

"What do you say? How much money do you make a month? Su Nancheng asked.

"Two-two."
