Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up

"I wonder which girl has captured my tenth brother's heart." The emperor was curious.

"She is my savior, Zhang Erya, the daughter of Ms. Yu Shen Ping."

"Oh?" The emperor raised his eyebrows and said without comment: "How can a girl from an ordinary peasant family be worthy of the prince. I think the daughter of the Minister of Agriculture, Ma Mei, is not bad."

The Minister of Agriculture Li Dong is knowledgeable and has been researching agriculture. Now the Dazhi Dynasty is mainly based on agriculture, but now everyone cannot even meet their basic needs of food and clothing.

If we can solve some agricultural problems, such as increasing yields or researching new varieties, it will be a blessing for the people.

Ma Mei has only one daughter. If He Li marries her daughter, he will be a member of the royal family and will definitely do his best to help share his worries.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me." He Li knelt down and said seriously, "I will marry no one but Arya!"

"Get up! Let's talk about this later!" The emperor was curious. He wanted to see who Zhang Erya was that could make his tenth brother, who was not interested in women, insist on marrying her.

After He Li left, the emperor called Su Desheng and asked him to send someone to investigate Zhang Erya.

Erya, who was far away in Kaoshan Village, sneezed several times in a row, causing Zhang Sifeng to tease her: "Erya, I guess Shenyang is talking about you."

Erya blushed slightly: "Fourth Aunt, why are you making fun of me too?" After saying that, her mood instantly became depressed again.

Now it has been nearly six months since Shen Yang left, and there has been no news from him. I even wonder if he has forgotten me.

Seeing that Erya looked unhappy, Sifeng looked concerned and asked, "What's wrong? Didn't Shenyang contact you after he left?"

Erya turned her head away and said nothing. Her silence also represented her consent. Zhang Sifeng began to feel annoyed. It was all because of her bad mouth. Why did she bring up Erya's sad story?

"Hehe~"

Zhang Shifeng laughed awkwardly twice, and said with a forced smile: "Don't worry, Erya, maybe he still has some things to do in Shenyang. So, I will take this new model you just drew and study it first."

"Hmm~" Erya nodded, picked up the design drawing, and went downstairs as if escaping.

Two days later, in the evening of that day, Dachun came back from the county with good news. Shopkeeper Qiu handed him a letter and asked him to give it to Erya.

Dachun knew very well that the letter must have been written by Shenyang, so the first thing he did when he got home was to give the letter to Erya.

"Second sister, open the letter quickly and see what Brother Shenyang said?" Si Ya urged with a wicked smile on her face.

Erya's face was full of surprise, and her hands trembled uncontrollably as she took the letter.

"Si Ya, stop teasing your second sister." Shen Ping said with a straight face.

Si Ya stuck out her tongue and made a face. She was really happy for her second sister. She used to think she liked Shenyang too.

But after Shen Yang left, she realized that she had never thought of him once, which proved that she didn't like him at all and only regarded him as an elder brother.

I didn't see my own heart clearly at the beginning. It was like snatching someone else's toys. It was not because I liked them at all, but just because I wanted to be competitive.

Erya took the letter and walked back to the room. She looked at the words on the cover. It read "Erya personally wrote" in four big characters written in a flamboyant style.

Erya's heart was pounding. She held her heart to her chest for a long time before she carefully opened the envelope.

"Er Ya, seeing your words is like seeing your face. I was busy a few days ago, but now that I have finally settled down, I am writing to you.

During these days when I haven't seen you, I have been thinking about you day and night. Don't worry, I will keep my promise. Wait for me, I will definitely go back and marry you..."

Erya read the letter over and over again four or five times. She could tell from the words that Shenyang was also thinking about her.

With his words, the uneasiness I had been feeling these days finally disappeared.

Don't be anxious, just wait for him to finish his work. If he never comes back, then accept it. Anyway, she has no plan to marry again except Shenyang.

It was just that he couldn't come back right away because of something. Erya put the letter back into the envelope and locked it carefully in the cabinet.

When she came out of the room again, Erya's face was full of smiles. Shen Ping was relieved at this, because Shenyang still had instructions for what he did.

After returning to the capital and being by the emperor's side, he might not be able to control some things, so he must be given time to deal with them.

A few days passed like this, and it was late May. During these days, Shen Ping was busy checking the growth of the rice seedlings every day, and had forgotten what Magistrate Zhang had told her to do.

On this day, Shen Ping and Dadong were busy in the fields as usual. Most of the rice seedlings have now headed and look to be growing well. Now is the critical moment for the growth of the rice seedlings.

The period when rice seedlings are heading and flowering is a good time to apply fertilizer, because there has been a lot of rain in the recent period and the soil is still moist, so fertilizer can be easily absorbed.

If the ears and flowers appear during the rainy season, it will affect the harvest. Now is a good time for filling and the weather is fine. It looks like this year will be a bumper year.

The appearance of the rice changed every day. Shen Ping ran to the fields every day, holding a notebook and carefully recording the growth conditions of the rice seedlings. She recorded the situation door to door and was busy until noon.

Suddenly, Dadong pointed at the mountain road opposite and shouted: "Madam, look at the mountain opposite, there seem to be a few carriages."

Horse-drawn carriages are rare things here. If a village has one, it is considered a wealthy family.

Shen Ping looked up and saw that what Dadong said was right. The mountain road was dusty and there were indeed several carriages galloping towards them.

Looking at the direction the carriage was heading, the village road was heading towards Kaoshan Village. Shen Ping had some doubts in her mind, wondering if it was merchants from other places coming here to purchase goods.

But as the carriage got closer, Shen Ping denied her idea. It was obvious that this carriage was not a truck but a passenger car.

Suddenly, Shen Ping remembered what Magistrate Zhang had told her a few days ago. He said that the emperor seemed to be sending someone over, but he didn't know exactly when, and he just asked her to pay more attention.

Thinking of this, Shen Ping went to the ditch to wash his hands. He didn't know whether the other party was an imperial envoy sent by the court, but seeing that the sun was almost at noon, it was time to go back.

"Dadong, the sun is getting high, shall we go back?"

"it is good!"

The two of them were walking one after the other along the edge of the field.

At this time, the carriages began to enter Kaoshan Village. Shen Ping could see clearly that there were three carriages, with two tall horses in the front and two yamen runners sitting on them.

Shen Ping looked at the person sitting in front of her from a distance. Why did he look so much like Captain Li? She used her internal energy to take a closer look and found that the person in the lead was indeed Captain Li Dong.

It seems that what Magistrate Zhang said is true. Shen Ping guessed that the person sitting in the carriage was probably the imperial envoy. Shen Ping quickened her pace...
