Nongmen Fu's wife and the whole family are villains

Baihe Village.The village head and dozens of villagers are waiting for the official who collects the silkworm cocoons to inspect the goods.

The official looked at it pretendingly, and said in embarrassment: "The cocoons in your village are small and the color is not correct. The price..."

"My lord, our silkworm cocoons are the same as in previous years!" said the village head, "Please be considerate, my lord. The whole village relies on selling these silkworm cocoons for a living. The price can't be too low."

"I'm also a person who can't control what I can do." The official said in embarrassment, "You have also seen that there are so many eyes staring at you. If the price I give you is too high, other villages will complain. Your silkworm cocoons are not as good as other villages. The quality of the village. How about this, since we are old friends, I will charge you at the price of other villages, and you don’t have to say more, it will embarrass me.”

The villagers next to him were all aggrieved.

They have worked so hard for so long, and the price given by the government is not enough to fill their stomachs.If this continues, next year they would rather grow crops than grow mulberry and silkworms.

"No comments, right? If you have no comments, let's start accepting them!" said the official.

drive!Drive!

The sound of hoofs came.

The villagers looked in the opposite direction.

"Who are these people? They can't be horse bandits, right?"

"No, although our place is outside the capital, it is also under the jurisdiction of the capital. Where are the horse bandits so courageous that they come to the villages near the capital to cause trouble?"

The people immediately came down, and the leading girl walked towards them and said, "We are passing by here, and we are a little thirsty, can we ask for a glass of water?"

The village head quickly said: "Miss, the people in our village are poor, I'm afraid there is no good tea to treat them."

"It's about drinking water. Why do we need tea? We only need plain water." Lu Zhiyun said.

"Then wait a moment, everyone, we will prepare right away." After the village chief finished speaking, he ordered several young and clean daughter-in-laws and girls in the village to boil water.

The official was impatient: "Is it still on sale?"

"What are you selling?" Lu Zhiyun asked, "Are these silkworm cocoons?"

"That's right." The official said, "We are from the government, and we made a special trip here to collect silkworm cocoons."

"We are the imperial guards," the deputy commander of the imperial guards took out a token, "this is Miss Lu, the empress's younger sister."

The official's eyes widened, and he knelt down to salute tremblingly: "I've seen Second Miss Lu."

"You are an official, and I am a citizen, so there is no need to perform such a grand ceremony." Lu Zhiyun said, but did not intend to make him get up.

The officer wiped his sweat.

Second Miss Lu...

The second generation ancestor that everyone in the capital talks about.

How could she appear in such a remote place?

"I remember that it was my sister who introduced the system of planting mulberry and raising silkworms at the beginning."

Song Hanzhi said beside him: "That's right. The empress has always attached great importance to this matter. This time, the second lady was sent to patrol around the capital with the Imperial Guards. She was worried that there would be gangsters who would harm the Sannong, so she gave the second lady the order to kill first and then play." card, so that the second lady can take full control of Sannon's affairs."

"My sister really is. I like to practice martial arts since I was a child, and I only like to fight and kill. Let me kill a few people, but what do you want me to care about?" Lu Zhiyun picked up a silkworm cocoon, "Such a fine silkworm cocoon, It is almost the same as the one raised by my sister herself, so it should sell well, right?"

The official hesitated.

Silkworm cocoons are really good, but there are instructions on it, saying that the price cannot be paid according to previous years, and can only be paid one-fifth.

The village chief and the villagers did not expect that the woman who suddenly appeared begging for water had such a big history.That's the queen's own sister, they have never seen such a noble person.

According to this, she was sent by the empress to help them?

Song Hanzhi said: "The queen attaches great importance to sangnong. The prices in previous years were very good, and this year must be good. If the price of such a fine silkworm cocoon can't go up, isn't it hitting you in the muzzle?"

"Second Miss hates all evil, and she hates treacherous merchants and courtiers the most." The deputy commander said, "If someone really dares to count the people's money, the token in the second lady's hand will come in handy."

"The price is given according to previous years." The official understood and wanted to understand.At this juncture, he can't be confused.Anyway, there is a big mountain here, and he dare not resist.

The villagers beamed with joy.

Originally, they were already ready to sell at a low price, but they never thought that there would be another village.

Under the supervision of Lu Zhiyun and others, the villagers of Baihe Village got a very good price.

"Have you harvested the cocoons from the neighboring villages?" Song Hanzhi asked.

"Received."

"Have you paid in silver?"

"I paid...the deposit." The official wiped his cold sweat.

"Vice Commander, follow this lord to the household department." Lu Zhiqing said, "Sang Nong has worked so hard for so long, and finally got a harvest, so we can't chill their hearts."

The deputy commander followed the officials.

The official took his men and left with the cocoons he had bought.

"Thank you, nobleman." The village head led the villagers to kneel down.

Lu Zhiqing hurriedly asked them to get up.

"Since there's nothing wrong here, let's go first."

"Wait a minute, benefactor, you haven't had any water yet!" said the village chief, "Bring the water quickly."

What happened here has spread, and everyone knows that the noble lady who just arrived helped them by adding the treasured nectar to the water and stirring it into nectar water.

Lu Zhiqing didn't like sweet food, so after taking a sip, she hesitated and drank all the water.

Song Hanzhi knew Lu Zhiqing's taste very well, seeing this, he secretly stuffed a sour plum for her.

Lu Zhiqing stuffed the sour plums into her mouth, and the sweetness in her mouth became lighter, which made her feel better.

"We're leaving, everyone take care."

"Miss, does the empress know about us?" the village head asked.

"My sister knows, but she is still in confinement, and she really can't get out of the palace. Just rest assured, planting mulberry and silkworms was proposed by my sister, and she will not ignore you."

"Miss, please tell the empress for us that we are fine, and the empress must take care of your health. She is fine, and we, the people under her protection, will be fine."

Other villagers chimed in.

Lu Zhiqing would appear among the people in the past two years, and the common people loved this approachable queen.This is also the reason why Xie Chengjin dared to hand over the burden of the court to her, because she won the hearts of the people and sat firmly.

The common people are happy, but the household department is not happy.

Originally, the silkworm cocoon was accepted at the lowest price, but now because Cheng Yaojin, Lu Zhiqing, is interfering, their interests will be lost.

The deputy commander will come back soon to report to Lu Zhiqing.

"How about it?"

"The other party insisted that what they received before were all inferior products, not worth the previous years' prices, and they were unwilling to pay the people back." The deputy commander said, "They are sure that the previous silkworm cocoons have been handed over to the Textile Pavilion, and we can't see the previous goods. You can’t grasp their intention to lower the price.”
