Chapter 245 The Eagle Clan Spy
"Yeah." Bai Susu nodded, "It's a simplified version of the text researched in that era."

"Simplified version?" Zhou Ximing looked down at the text, "Why use the simplified version?"

"To make literacy accessible to all."

Zhou Ximing didn't ask any further questions. He looked down at the words, put the book in its original place, and left with Bai Susu.

The Ministry of Industry, which is researching agricultural tools, is very busy recently. The agricultural tools researched and negotiated with the imperial merchants were all sold out in just five days.

Now people from the Ministry of Industry are sent out on business trips to make and sell the next batch of agricultural tools, which also sent a large amount of money to the treasury.

The Hubu Shangshu family who was pulled down was also copied, and the money was filled into the treasury.The Minister of the Household Department, Su Mu, has just been promoted to the Minister of the Household Department, and within a few days, the treasury has received one sum after another.

He was sitting in the office, holding a brush in his hand, and wrote on it without listening. Looking at the amount on it, he was full of confidence in his future work.

Before he could do something big, he heard that the empress wanted to put two-thirds of the grain harvest into the imperial warehouse!
He hurriedly stood up and went to the palace to find Bai Susu.

Bai Susu looked at the newly appointed Hubu Shangshu standing in front of her with a gentle face.Now that she hears the name Hubu Shangshu again, she finally doesn't feel bad.

"Master of the household department came here today to donate food." Bai Susu explained the purpose of the household department's coming here.

"Yes." Lord Hubu nodded, "I want to ask the empress, is it really necessary to donate so much grain like an imperial warehouse?"

Even though Bai Susu is now in the position of queen, she can donate it to the imperial storehouse, which is equivalent to letting the food be used as money for the relief of refugees in the court, and Bai Susu will no longer have the right to control it.

Mr. Hubu didn't understand why the queen was willing to donate all the food when she still opened a grain store.

"I'm sure." Xu Shi could see the doubts of the head of the household department, and Bai Susu added, "I opened the Baijia shop to help the people. It's the same to come by myself or hand it over to the court."

Mr. Hubu thought of what Mr. Rites said before, and the doubts in his heart dissipated in an instant. He raised his hand and saluted, "I understand."

The next negotiation is very simple.Master Hubu led his subordinates to transport the batch of grain to the Huangcang, and store the grain according to Bai Susu's instructions.

Invisibly, almost half of the ministers in the court admired Bai Susu sincerely in their hearts, and truly respected the queen.

Although this empress came from the common people, her contribution to the Great Zhou was beyond the reach of many ministers.

Bai Susu didn't notice such a change, nor did she care.

After solving the more critical matters, she will go to the appointment.

At noon, Bai Susu wore a black dress and a mask, and went to the ground alone to attend the appointment.

Walking to the bamboo dragonfly stall next to the restaurant in Beishi, a small black feather was exposed from the white sleeve, and the voice was deliberately lowered, "Do you have three hundred bamboo dragonflies?"

The person who had been weaving bamboo dragonflies finally stopped his movements. He raised his eyes to look at Bai Susu, his eyes fell on a black feather protruding from her sleeve, and his eyes were fixed.

He put the newly woven bamboo dragonfly in Bai Susu's hand, and said hoarsely, "Yes, but they are all at home, and I need you to go home with me."

Bai Susu held the bamboo dragonfly in her hand and nodded with a smile.

The bamboo dragonfly in her hand is exactly the same as the old man who sold the bamboo dragonfly compared to the ones she bought back then.

Standing aside, he watched the big man gently put these bamboo dragonflies in a bamboo basket, carried these things on his back, and walked towards a hidden corner.

Even in the bustling capital city, there are inevitably some unknown places.This is where the big man lives now.

The houses here are dilapidated, and many beggars walk barefoot, gnawing on a piece of cold and hard bread.Bai Susu glanced at these people, and finally turned around and followed the big man to a room full of bamboo dragonflies.

Once in the house, the big man put the back basket in his hand aside, and took out a rusty knife from the side, and said in a vicissitudes of voice, "After so many years, the Eagle Clan finally can't help but want to do it?"

When Bai Susu heard the big man's voice, she always felt that the situation was slightly different from what she had imagined.It seems that this big man has not yet contacted his prince.

She stood in the distance, looked at him calmly, and didn't say anything.

The big man walked to the side, took out a huge whetstone, sat down to sharpen the knife, and asked, "Who are you from the Prince of the Eagle Clan?"

"My name is Tizimura." This is the name of the princess of the Eagle Clan.

"It turned out to be the princess of the Eagle Clan." The big man didn't know what deal the prince and the princess had not contacted for a long time, and hadn't received any news, so he stopped sharpening his knife and asked, "Why are you looking for me?"

"Come to find the whereabouts of the prince." Bai Susu looked at the big man, "The prince of the eagle clan seems to be missing."

The big man immediately stood up, stood in front of Bai Susu, and suddenly made a move.

Bai Susu reacted very quickly, she immediately dodged the big man's attack sideways, put a distance away from him, and looked at the big man warily, "Why did you attack me?"

"You are not the princess." The big man looked at Bai Susu with deep eyes, "The princess is a woman who likes to laugh and is very crazy. If the prince disappears, she will be happy and will not take the initiative to find him." Even if there is a deal between them .

It turned out to be exposed, Bai Susu nodded slightly, took off the mask, and directly explained the intention of coming this time.

"If the prince doesn't come to redeem them, they will all be decapitated." Bai Susu looked at the big man.

Hearing that Bai Susu had taken away the prince's personal guards, he was stunned, then sat back to his original position and sneered, "He has already got what he wants, and he won't come to rescue these personal guards."

"Isn't he afraid that other guards will betray him?" Bai Susu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Betrayal?" The big man looked at Bai Susu, raised one arm, revealing a piece of black skin on it, "He poisoned us, in order to survive, who would dare to betray?"

Bai Susu was silent.

The big man pulled back the sleeve in his hand, looked down at the half-sharpened knife, and said in a gloomy tone, "If it weren't for involuntary reasons, who would want to live the life of licking blood on the tip of the knife."

"Will the Prince of the Eagle Clan give you the antidote every month?" Bai Susu asked.

"Yes." The big man nodded slightly, "Every month, a bird will send an antidote." Then he continued to linger on.
