The Shouyan Mountains are relatively long mountain ranges in the west of Datong, starting from the territory of Shu and running through the Liang Kingdom to the east, until the territory of the Jin Kingdom there are still scattered mountains.

In April, the greenery of the wilderness has burst out, and the endless fertile fields on both sides of the road are lined with peasants toiling with their backs to the sky, but most of them are women, and the occasional cheer of children comes to an abrupt end at the sight of the marching army.

The women in the fields did not even dare to shout, but looked for their children with a look of urgency, grabbed a slap on the buttocks, and pulled them behind them.

Few of the common people are literate and can't recognize what is written on those hideous flags, but it is a consensus.

The old man in the village, who had always been prestigious, pouted his buttocks and knelt on the side of the road with his head on the ground, standing still.

Guan Cheng stood on the chariot, his heart full of bitterness.

"King's Night."

"Your Highness."

"Go with the lonely."

Guan couldn't bear this kind of atmosphere, although there were few soldiers and generals in Zhili County, the common people would not be afraid when they saw the officers and soldiers.

He could feel the unpretentious reassurance.

Most of the soldiers in Zhili County are locals, and Guan Cheng will also instruct some soldiers to help the widows and orphans when the farming is busy, at first no one is willing, but the sincere and heavy thanks and the bowl of well water that is particularly comfortable to drink make every participating soldier get great satisfaction.

Guan Cheng was originally an accidental move, but he was unexpectedly embraced, he was only ten years old at that time, and now in the ground, he is also a hula kneeling commoner with eyes, and his excited little face is red.

The title of the soldier spread far and wide, and the people of Zhili County were also proud that their children could be elected to the East Palace.

But in front of him, where did the harmony come from, Wang Ye and other soldiers from Peng Shu and the two countries were accustomed to it, but they were accustomed to the fact that the soldiers of Zhili County, who were originally close to the military and civilians, had different colors on their faces.

Guan Cheng walked up to the old man, stretched out his hand and grabbed the old man's arm with both hands and pulled it up hard.

The old man was thin and weak, and he didn't have many catties and taels, but Guan Cheng felt that heavy and almost incompetent feeling.

The old man was the only one in the village who could read Braille, and when he was picked up by Guan Cheng, he still shouted loudly: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin is coming, the little old man has missed the distance, His Royal Highness forgives the sins, forgives the sins!" ”

But what is the sin?

The soldiers next to him walked in turn, and although the messy steps did not have the elite and uniform slaughter, they were not as terrible as they were in the eyes of the villagers.

Cao Ling'er's carriage also stopped, looking at the fairy-like people and the old man was a little embarrassed for a while, and the two and a half children next to him suddenly blushed.

This scene made Cao Ling'er, who came over, smile amusefully.

Guan Cheng noticed the embarrassment of several people and smiled when he looked around, the girl he fancied was really a fairy, and the temperament of the old grandmother has become more and more dusty these days.

"Uncle?" Guan Cheng called jokingly.

When the old man heard this, his face changed greatly, how could such a stunning woman be qualified to see it, so he quickly knelt down again and knocked his head to Bang Bang.

"Uncle, hurry up, since you know that Lone is the King of Jin, you should also know that Lone is not happy here."

The old man was frightened in his heart, fortunately he knew two words and knew that it was the word Jin, but what kind of person is the king of Jin, where do you know where to go, the old man has even gone out to Baofang County a few times.

But the old man still nodded again and again: "What His Highness said is true, what he said." ”

Guan Cheng was not entangled, and after helping the old man, he asked, "Uncle, where is this place?" Why are most women working during the busy farming season? ”

The old man's eyes rolled and he sighed and said, "So that His Highness knows that this place is Baofang County, Yangxia County, Sandaoling Village, and the little old man is here Lizheng." ”

"As for what Your Highness has seen, most of the land is full of women, and most of them are men, and most of them have been called up to fight."

Guan Cheng turned his head and glanced at Wang Ye, if he remembered correctly, Wang Ye had told him that there were five armies in Jin, and although there were many troops dispatched this time, there was still one army left in the country.

"A woman will not be able to use a hoe after all."

The old man's sigh this time was even heavier: "So what, this land can't be deserted, the food in the village is not enough to eat, people starve to death every year, someone has to plant, more or less is a hope." ”

This sentence instantly aroused Cao Ling'er's empathy, thinking that when she was young, she often couldn't eat enough, and the second boy in the sixth uncle's family starved to death at the beginning.

Thinking of this, Cao Ling'er stepped forward, first gave a blessing and then said: "Your Highness, the people are miserable, and they should do something. ”

Wang Ye also said when he heard this: "Your Highness, our army still has thousands of miles of land, and our army also needs to recruit people to supplement the troops, and these grains and grasses should come in handy." ”

Guan Cheng sighed slightly and nodded: "Order the former army to find a camp to rest, don't leave today, pick five hundred young people to help, and leave another five hundred stones of grain for them." ”

When the old man heard this, he was shocked, not only did he not rob the food but also the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law who were soldiers in this year helped to work?

And there are 500 stone of grain!

Five hundred stones!

One stone is more than 300 catties, and one province is enough for a woman to eat for a year.

Li Zheng was overjoyed, and his eyes immediately brought tears of emotion, which was simply seamless.

"More than 400 people in the village, old and young, have thanked His Highness for his great kindness, His Royal Highness Gonghou Wandai, Gonghou Wandai!"

At this time, someone had already loudly publicized Guan Cheng's decision just now, and the people were in disbelief at first, but then they were ecstatic, and the hungry children at home could finally have a full meal.

"Your Highness, Marquis Wandai!"

This may already be the best blessing they can come up with, in the eyes of these people, as long as they become officials, they have no worries about food and clothing, and they have to use iron hoes to hoe the land, and if they can be knighted and have a fief, it is even more of an ancestral grave, and they have to wake up with laughter when they dream.

Guan Cheng laughed and burst into tears when he heard this, this is only five hundred stone of food, even the childish child with bare buttocks and snot obediently lying on the ground and kowtowing like an adult.

"His Royal Highness is the prince, more noble than the prince, and it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who is in front of you!"

Wang Ye obviously knew better what these ordinary people would know, and stood beside him and shouted at the moment.

Sure enough, after hearing this, the old man raised his head in surprise, and got up with incredible agility, and even threw a cane to walk two steps, staring at Guan Cheng with burning eyes and asking, "Prince?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”

Guan Cheng shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Lone is no longer the prince, Lone is now the King of Jin." ”

The old man's eyes moistened even more, and after a moment of silence, he turned around and cried loudly to the crowd, the voice was even louder than Wang Ye's voice just now, and where was the old man's weakness: "Folks, it's His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince!" Obviously, the old man didn't listen to the second half of what Guan Cheng said just now, or heard it but was automatically ignored.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

The villagers were apparently shocked as well, and a deafening cheer ensued, and some even fell to the ground crying.

Among them, the most emotional cry is Li Zheng.

People don't know why, but the anticipation is felt.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, are you here to save me?"
