After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

Bai Yuwei asked the guard for a horse and left without looking back.

Xun Yu, who was behind, quickly got off his carriage, walked to Bai Qingchen's carriage, and asked worriedly, "Master Bai, what happened? Where is Miss Bai going?"

Bai Qingchen sighed helplessly: "She had a quarrel with me and went to find my grandfather."

Xun Yu did not immediately inquire about the Miao King's entry into the capital, but said with concern: "I will chase him and take a look. Master Bai, don't worry, I will bring Miss Bai back to the Prime Minister's Mansion safely."

Bai Qingchen thought that his sister was angry, and it would be better if Xun Yu came forward, so he said to Xun Yu: "Thank you, Master Xun."

Xun Yu also asked for a horse and rode at full speed to catch up with Bai Yuwei.

"Miss Bai!"

Bai Yuwei snorted coldly: "You are here to blame me too, right?"

Xun Yu smiled and said, "Miss Bai misunderstood. I just wanted to accompany you to relax. Blame me for not finding out Meng Xiaojiu's ability clearly, so that she deceived Miss Bai."

Bai Yuwei slowed down her horse and walked leisurely on the street: "What you said is true! As for me, I heard that she was not good at archery, so I shot a few arrows randomly. If I could do it again, I would never lose to her!"

Xun Yu said gently, "I believe Miss Bai. Miss Bai said she would not use the Gu, and she lied that she was not good at archery. Whose character is more precious will be seen at a glance."

"I love what you say!" Bai Yuwei was very happy to be coaxed, "I'll take you to find my grandfather!"

Xun Yu was surprised: "The Miao King has entered the capital?"

Bai Yuwei smiled: "Not yet, but I know where he is! I want to give him a surprise! Grandfather loves me the most, he will definitely be very happy to see me!"

Xun Yu suppressed his surprise and asked hesitantly, "I wonder if the Xiangguo Mansion has the honor to invite King Miao to stay."

Bai Yuwei said confidently: "Wherever my brother and I are, my grandfather will live there! However, my grandfather doesn't like noise."

Xun Yu immediately said, "Miss Bai, don't worry. When the Miao King is at the mansion, the Xiangguo Mansion will not host any banquets and will not allow anyone to disturb the Miao King's peace. I will also have the opera troupe at the mansion dismissed immediately."

Bai Yuwei nodded: "That couldn't be better!"

Xun Yu asked: "Does King Miao have any other hobbies?"

"Let me think about it. By the way, my grandfather likes..."

Bai Yuwei told Xun Yu a lot about the Miao King's likes and taboos.

Xun Yu wrote down everything, and when he passed by a shop of his own, he immediately asked his clerk to take the news back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, in preparation for a grand welcome for King Miao.

The sun is scorching, and the sky and farmland are covered with clouds in the afternoon.

The young emperor, who had been dragged by Lu Yuan to do farm work for the whole morning, was so hot that he sat down on the edge of the field in a humiliating manner, gasping for breath.

Lu Yuan walked towards him holding a cold melon.

Lu Yuan changed out of his brocade clothes in the carriage and put on a farmer's linen shorts, revealing his strong and powerful arms. He rolled up his trouser legs and matched them with a pair of rough straw sandals.

He doesn't look like an official at all, he looks just like a farmer digging for food.

"Isn't this possible?"

Lu Yuan looked at Zong Zhengxi with a half-smile, "There are two acres of melon fields waiting to be picked over there."

Zong Zhengxi was about to cry: "I can't pick them anymore! Are you trying to tire me out so you can take my kingdom away? Here I give it to you! All of it is yours!"

Lu Yuan slapped him on the forehead: "You useless boy!"

Zong Zhengxi roared in grievance: "There's mud on your hands!"

Lu Yuan looked down at his hands: "Yes, it is."

Then she rubbed it on his face and body several times.

Zong Zhengxi: “…”

The two of them shared a cold melon.

The winter melon was just picked from the field. It was still warm and had not been cut into an exquisite fruit plate. Zong Zhengxi just held it and ate it without any image.

But for some reason, he felt that this cold melon tasted better than the chilled ones in the palace.

Lu Yuan smiled faintly: "It's the same melon, but Your Majesty understands its value and cherishes it more when eating it, which makes it taste better."

Zong Zhengxi seemed to understand something and murmured, "Am I the same way to you?"

Lu Yuan: "What did your majesty say?"

“Nothing!” Zong Zhengxi’s eyes became flustered, and he buried his head in the food, “Eat your melon!”

The two were eating melons to cool off when they heard a commotion not far away.

"Old Zheng, didn't you say someone would send us a new plow today? It's already this late, where's the plow?"

"Yes, Mr. Zheng, everyone is waiting here. Are you kidding us?"

The old farmer, who was called Lao Zhengtou, said anxiously, "That's what the young master said. How do I know that he agreed but didn't send me off? Maybe it's still early, so we should wait a little longer?"

An auntie shouted, "If you wait any longer, it will be dark! Who would plow the fields after dark?"

Zong Zhengxi was confused: "What pear? Have you eaten any pears yet?"

Aren’t pears only available in autumn and winter?

Lu Yuan said: "It's an iron plow, a kind of farm tool."

After he said that, he gently placed the half piece of winter melon in his hand on the edge of the field and walked towards the farmers.

Zong Zhengxi was not very good at dealing with farmers, so he just watched from a distance.

He didn't know what Lu Yuan said to them. He only heard something about blacksmith and shovel.

Then the old farmer named Lao Zhengtou handed a shovel to Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan pulled off the shovel head, compared it with a farm tool, shook his head, and asked Yu Zichuan to get a piece of iron from the carriage.

Zong Zhengxi had no idea what the iron sheet was originally used for, but in Lu Yuan's hands it seemed to have a thousand uses.

Lu Yuan pounded on the iron sheet.

Zong Zhengxi was stunned: "You can also forge iron?"

Finally, Lu Yuan installed the hammered iron sheet on the farm tool, brought the oxen, and plowed two acres of land in one breath.

“So this is the plow field.”

Zong Zhengxi felt that he had learned a lot today.

But at the same time, he was even more curious about Lu Yuan: "How come you know everything?"

"Young man, are you married?"

An auntie asked Lu Yuan with shining eyes.

Zong Zhengxi hurried over with the unfinished winter melon in his hand: "Hey, hey, hey! You can't do this!"

-

The capital city is hotter this year than in previous years, and Bai Yuwei is almost melting from the heat.

Xun Yu hired the most luxurious and spacious carriage from the carriage company, and spent a lot of money to buy a large basin of ice cubes to put in the carriage to cool Bai Yuwei down. He also hired a maid to fan Bai Yuwei along the way.

Bai Yuwei cooled down and fell asleep leaning against the carriage.

Halfway through their journey, they met an old farmer sitting by the roadside.

The old farmer seemed to be terribly hot. He fanned himself with his straw hat and waved to Xun Yu and his group.

The driver was a kind-hearted man and went down to ask the old farmer what was the matter.

The old farmer said uncomfortably: "It's too hot, I can't walk anymore, can you give me a ride?"

Xun Yu threw out a silver ingot from the carriage.

The coachman understood what the guest meant. He was just a coachman and did not dare to make the decision for the guest, so he had to drive the carriage away.

Sunset.

Zong Zhengxi finally finished all the farm work assigned by Lu Yuan and got on the carriage crying.

I am so tired, so tired, so tired!

On the way back, they also met the old farmer.

Lu Yuan asked Yu Zichuan to go and find out what was going on.

Yu Zichuan said: "He said he couldn't walk anymore and wanted us to give him a ride."

Lu Yuan said: "Let him come up."

After giving the order, he stared straight at Zong Zhengxi who was crying and gasping for breath.

Zong Zhengxi said aggrievedly: "Why are you looking at me? Can't you just cry? Who told you to torture me like this?"

Lu Yuan said speechlessly: "The carriage is small, I want you to make some room for others."

Zong Zhengxi stomped his feet hard, and moved to the side while crying.

That kick was his last act of stubbornness as the emperor!

After the old farmer got on the carriage, he sat down on the bench, taking up most of the bench.

Zong Zhengxi was stunned by the crowd.

Is it so justified to hitchhike a horse carriage nowadays?

Fortunately, he was a good-tempered emperor. If it were his brothers, they would have dragged this man out and beheaded him long ago.

No, his royal brothers would never let a dirty old farmer get on their carriage.

Lu Yuan looked the old farmer up and down and asked, "Where are you going, old man?"

The old farmer asked back, "Ah, where are you going?"

Lu Yuan said: "Let's go back to the capital. We'll take you wherever you want to go."

The old farmer always gave irrelevant answers and pointed at Zong Zhengxi: "Is this your brother?"

Zong Zhengxi straightened his back and said, "I, I'm not! I don't have a brother like him!"

The old farmer touched his stomach and said, "I'm hungry."

Lu Yuan glanced at the snacks and tea on the table: "Whatever you want."

"Then I'm welcome!"

The old farmer grabbed the teapot and started to gulp down the tea.

Zong Zhengxi had never seen anyone eat so extravagantly, because he was the emperor and no one dared to lose manners in front of him.

He swallowed.

After a busy day, he was hungry.

However, the last piece of dessert soon went into the old farmer's stomach.

Zong Zhengxi wanted to cry even more.

The old farmer looked at the pitiful Zong Zhengxi, touched his round belly, and said to Lu Yuan: "Oh my, I accidentally ate all your brother's food. How about this, when we get to the capital, I'll treat you to a good meal!"

Zong Zhengxi choked up and said, "Food in the capital is very expensive."

After going out, he realized that it was not easy for ordinary people to make money. This old farmer might not be able to earn enough for a meal in a restaurant after working for a whole year.

The old farmer took out a shiny silver ingot from his pocket and said, "Just now a young man gave me a silver ingot. Do you think he is a good man?"

The sun sets in the west.

Xun Yu's carriage arrived at the post station that Bai Yuwei mentioned.

"What did you say? My grandfather is gone? He went to the capital alone?"

Bai Yuwei looked at the Miao guards in the post station in disbelief.

The chief guard asked in confusion: "Miss Yuwei, didn't you run into him?"

There is only one official road from the post station to the capital, and the time is also correct.

Bai Yuwei frowned and said, "No! Master Xun, did you see my grandfather on the way?"

Xun Yu recalled that halfway through the journey, he only saw an old farmer holding a straw hat.

His expression changed: "Could it be——"
