The Dragon Wife and the Manor [System]

"Then," Rand looked at Yu Xiasheng. He smiled as if deliberately trying to annoy Yu Xiasheng, "What are you going to do? Save that pathetic little prince?"

"It won't do you any good to have Qiu Jia in power," Yu Xiasheng said coldly, "Do you think he won't try to get rid of you and your followers? It's like dealing with those eleven knights."

Rand was speechless for a moment.

"Wake up, Rand, you and I are not enemies now."

"What do you want to do?" Rand stared at Yu Xiasheng closely, as if he wanted to catch something from this seemingly worthless man.

"Forcing Sakild to come forward," Yu Xiasheng was silent for a while, before continuing, "Magnifying the consequences of the heavy taxation in the Eastern Region will force Qiu Jia to give up the war plan."

Rand hesitated for a moment before saying, "You want to make the peasants unrest?"

"No need." Yu Xiasheng didn't want to drag a large number of innocent civilians into it, not to mention that the risk of chaos was too great, and it was completely impossible for Yu Xiasheng alone. "It is only necessary to spread the dissatisfaction and anger of the peasants to the palace, and force the palace to open the warehouse to release grain. Without food, it is impossible to go to war, right?"

indeed.

Today's large chambers of commerce almost monopolize the grain trade across the country.Grain is almost concentrated in the hands of the Chamber of Commerce, and the grain reserves in the treasury are not enough to support the country in launching wars.

If Churchia opened the treasury at this time, it would be nonsense to start a war.

Yu Xiasheng said: "I hope that Major Rand can ask Thakilde to lower the agricultural tax in the eastern district in the parliament."

"Thatkild didn't..."

"It doesn't matter whether Sakild attends the meeting or not." Yu Xiasheng said with a smile, "You just need to wait for Churchia to make a decision."

Rand felt that Yu Xiasheng's words were not unreasonable, but the businessman was cunning. Rand couldn't see through Yu Xiasheng's thoughts, so he didn't dare to act recklessly, "I'll think about it."

Seeing that Rand was wavering, Yu Xiasheng's purpose for this trip had already been half achieved. He mustered up his energy and continued, "Then let's change the content, Major. I think you will like it better."

After leaving the tavern, Yu Xiasheng didn't go back to the palace immediately, but walked around a few times and found an alley.

No matter how rich a city is in this era, street children can always be found.It didn't take much effort for Yu Xiasheng to find one or two of these children and give them a silver coin so that they could send the letter Yu Xiasheng had prepared outside the city.

Everything seems to be in place.

When Yu Xiasheng returned to the dormitory of the palace, there was no one there, and a letter was left on the table in the room, which was written by Qiu Jia.

"Neil!" Yu Xiasheng yelled, and Neil carefully crawled out from under the bed, calling out, "Chirp."

Yu Xiasheng breathed a sigh of relief. If Qiu Jiya discovered the existence of Neil, Yu Xiasheng would inevitably be escorted to the church by Qiu Jia.

"Chirp." Neil dragged his scarf and looked at Yu Xiasheng helplessly.

"Don't worry." Yu Xiasheng picked up Neil and carefully rolled it up with a scarf.Neil lay in Yu Xiasheng's arms a little tiredly, motionless. "Sorry, I'm going to bring Nigeya back now."

Neil nodded half-listening, clutching Yu Xiasheng with his little paws, and soon fell asleep.

Yu Xiasheng added firewood to the fireplace and settled Neil.He took off his servant's clothes and went out with Churchia's letter.

"Baron Assaros, this way please." The guards who had been waiting outside led Yu Xiasheng to a side hall, where Chugia was sitting at the tea table, and Niggia was sleeping on the sofa in front of the fireplace. .A head of long black hair was scattered on the ground from his back, and his head was pressed on his arm, revealing a section of white arm.

Yu Xiasheng frowned. It was impossible for Nigeya to sleep peacefully without a sense of security.

"What did you do to him!"

Yu Xiasheng stepped forward regardless of the guard's obstruction, and picked up Nigeya from the sofa.

"I just drank a cup of tea." Qiu Jia put down the teacup in his hand, crossed his two slender legs, and said unhurriedly: "Would you like a cup?"

"No need." Yu Xiasheng picked up Nigeya and left.

"Any omission of details will lead to catastrophe one day, Azalos, I have never despised you." Churchia said: "I believe you are a wise man."

Yu Xiasheng hugged Nigeya's hand tightly and said, "What do you mean?"

"As long as the matter ends cleanly, I won't harm Portland." Churchia pointed to Nigeya, and raised the corners of his mouth, but he didn't smile, "Of course, I will also give you the antidote for him. "

Yu Xiasheng stared at the obvious malice in Qiu Jiaya's eyes, but he couldn't refute.

"Yu...?" Nigeya woke up in a daze in his arms, his cheeks were unnaturally hot and red.Yu Xiasheng gritted his teeth, ignoring Qiu Jiya, and hurriedly hugged Nigeya back.

Neil in the room still couldn't fall asleep, sitting on the soft pillow and waiting for Yu Xiasheng to come back.

The door was opened, and Neil quickly hid under the quilt. Seeing that it was Yu Xiasheng, he crawled out to say hello: "Chirp."

Yu Xiasheng was so focused on Ni Geya that he didn't care about responding to Neil, so he hurriedly put Ni Geya on the bed and untied his coat.

"Yu..." Nigeya's cheeks were burning hot, but his hands and feet were cold.

Is this what Churchia said?Yu Xiasheng was sweating anxiously, patted Nigeya on the face, trying to wake him up, "Nigya, Nigeya!"

"Chirp?" Neil also noticed something was wrong, and lay on Nigeya's arm, looking at him worriedly.

"Damn it." Yu Xiasheng picked up Nigeya and patted him on the back.Nigeya frowned, groaned for a while, and then opened his eyes with difficulty, "Oh?"

"Nigeya!" Yu Xiasheng was extremely pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Are you thirsty, is there any discomfort?"

"Oh..." Nigeya heard Yu Xiasheng's voice, his body softened with peace of mind, and fell asleep next to Yu Xiasheng in a daze.

Yu Xiasheng's heart was half cold.

"I'll go to Qiu Jia for an antidote." Yu Xiasheng got up and planned to leave. Neil, who was lying on his stomach, hurriedly tried to stop Yu Xiasheng, but he accidentally fell from the bed to the ground again, "Chirp!"

Yu Xiasheng picked up Neil and put him back beside Nigeya.Neil stretched out his claws and grabbed Yu Xiasheng's sleeve, shaking his head, "Chirp."

"You told me... not to go?"

"Chirp." Neil nodded.

"But..." He couldn't let Nigeya, who was so uncomfortable, leave him alone. No matter what, he wanted Churchia to get the antidote.

"Chirp, chirp!" Seeing that Yu Xiasheng didn't believe it, Neil spit out small fireworks angrily.The fireworks "cracked" in front of Yu Xiasheng, scaring Yu Xiasheng back several steps, "Chirp!!"

Neil is angry, why?

Yu Xiasheng was puzzled, and stared at Neil's angry face for a long time before realizing, "You mean, Nigeya is a dragon?"

Neil thrust his waist and nodded.

"Is it okay to be poisoned?" Yu Xiasheng was still worried.

"Chirp." Neil stretched out his paw to pat his chest, but unfortunately he didn't have a chest, so he could only pat his stomach.

"I see." Now that Neil was so sure, Yu Xiasheng stopped worrying and stood up and said, "I'm going to ask for a basin of water. You can take care of Nigeya."

Neil nodded and watched Yu Xiasheng leave.

When Yu Xiasheng brought back the water basin, Nigeya in the room had already woken up. He was pinching Neil in his hand, constantly tickling its stomach.

"Nigya!"

Yu Xiasheng hurriedly put down the basin, and stepped forward to check on Nigeya's condition.

His face was still hot and red, but his brown eyes were much clearer, and he seemed to have regained a lot of energy.

Nigeya shook his drowsy head and said, "It's okay."

Yu Xiasheng dipped a towel in water, pulled Nigeya to his side and forced him to wipe his face.

"Oh!" Cold water greeted his face unexpectedly, Nigeya's hidden tail popped out all of a sudden, collapsed straight, and tried to resist.But Yu Xiasheng was tougher than usual and didn't leave any chance.

After Yu Xiasheng took away the hot towel, Nigeya lowered her face and complained: "It's cold."

"Don't move." Yu Xiasheng got up to wash the towel.

The water was cold, and the redness on Nigeya's face dropped a lot.But being teased by Yu Xiasheng like this, Nigeya felt a lot of grievances, and curled his tail weakly around himself.

Yu Xiasheng wiped Nigeya's face again, and this time Nigeya behaved a lot better.

After Yu Xiasheng finished some work, Nigeya rolled up the quilt and hid himself.It's a pity that he forgot to retract the tail, and the tip of the tail was exposed to the outside.

Yu Xiasheng pinched the tip of his tail and successfully pulled Nigeya out of the quilt.

"Nigya, what did Churchia tell you?"

Nigeya is very cautious, and it is impossible to be easily fooled by Churchia.

Nigeya lowered his eyes and was silent for a while before saying, "If I don't go, he will let the soldiers kill you outside the city."

Yu Xiasheng caressed Nigeya and sighed heavily, "Don't do such a dangerous thing."

"Poison, it's okay." Nigeya leaned on Yu Xiasheng, and the familiar smell reassured him, "Dragon is invulnerable to all poisons."

"I know, I know but..." Yu Xiasheng hugged Nigeya tightly, still inexplicably uncomfortable in his heart, "Didn't you feel very uncomfortable just now?"

Nigeya opened his mouth to argue, but was stared back by Yu Xia's annoyed eyes, "...you're killing me."

"No." Yu Xiasheng's anger was completely vented by Nigeya's grievance.

Nigeya pursed her lips and refused to speak.

Yu Xiasheng hugged him and sighed, pinching his cheeks from time to time.After pinching too much, I was bitten by Nigeya in retaliation.Yu Xiasheng withdrew his hands and said, "Forget it, Qiu Jiaya didn't know that you were not poisoned."

Yu Xiasheng thought about it carefully: This might be an opportunity.

Nigeya rolled himself up with the quilt, and was about to lie down when he suddenly hesitated.Yu Xiasheng suddenly became nervous, and hurriedly asked why.Nigeya blushed, and a long cry came from his stomach.

"Hungry?" Yu Xiasheng asked.

Nigeya nodded. After all, detoxification requires magic power.
