The queen is a bit cowardly

Those were a pair of hands with clear joints, the skin on the hands was a little loose, but these slightly old hands were still flexible, holding scissors in one hand, and holding the stem of the flower in the other hand, the hands were neat, and the stem broke when the hand was raised.The owner of the hand inserted the flower horse into the vase, followed by another slender bamboo, and decorated it with plum blossoms.

"Is it elegant?"

"Uncle's aesthetics are excellent."

Wei Xin handed the vase to the slaves at the side, asking them to put the things back where they should be.

"I heard that things are not calm recently?" Wei Xin asked.

The man in the county official's clothes replied: "Yes, I don't know what happened to the slaves. Yuexian County in the north has lost two cities."

Wei Xin stroked his beard and said, "If the slaves are fed, why would they worry about getting warm?"

"What uncle said is true." The county magistrate replied: "In fact, the current situation here looks like it would be better to be more chaotic, and this will also benefit your master's plan."

Wei Xin walked to another vase and was also fiddling with flower arrangements. He shook his head and said, "My plan didn't go so well either."

Seeing the puzzled look on the county official's face, he explained again: "That one still doesn't agree with my arrangement."

The county official suddenly realized that he was actually an official of the county, and this person was also Wei Xin's nephew. He called Wei Yuan, and Wei Xin had no children under his knees.

"This is not a loss to Your Highness." Wei Yuan said.

"It's okay, she will understand after thinking about it." Wei Xin took out a flower in the vase. The flower was a little faded. He took out the flower and threw it out of the window, saying: "There is no difference between loss and loss." Said, I have something to ask, she has a plan, I just want to be loyal to the emperor, and she wants to restore, there is no conflict."

"That……"

"Then let Your Highness continue to think, before the snow melts next year, she will definitely give me an answer." Wei Xin is also confident.

"Then uncle, Shu'er, she..." Wei Yuan and Wei Shu grew up together, and somewhat had thoughts beyond brother-sister relationship.

"Shu'er is going to pay her sister's debt." Wei Xin said, "Naturally, you have to do what you have to do. Yuan'er, you have to help her."

"Yes, uncle."

"Speaking of that one, I haven't seen her for quite a while." Wei Xin sent his personal slaves to Jiang Qingluan to pay her respects every day. The etiquette was excellent, but he rarely saw her.

"I heard that I went to Houshan Wendi with sister Shu today." Wei Yuan asked, and he wanted to see Wei Shu when he came back today.

"It's good for the two of you to get along for a while, after all, you'll have to live a lifetime later."

"Let's not say that both of them are women, but they have no relationship yet..."

"When I married Shu'er's mother, I had no feelings." Wei Xin said: "Sometimes feelings are not important. A wife is just a role and responsibility. Some are used to give birth to children, and some are used for other purposes."

"Nephew understands." Wei Yuan didn't dare to say anything more.

"You should check out the available soldiers in the county recently. If the slaves come here, you still need to take precautions," Wei Xin arranged: "Also pay attention to the surrounding villages. If there are troubles, they should be resolved in advance. You just need to understand There is no substitute for the safety of residents and students in Niandong County.”

"Here."

Jiang Qingluan took advantage of the water to silently record the terrain, and Baler also found out the reason for the ground temperature after a round of inspection. Wei Shu only saw Wei Shu going up the mountain after a few rounds, and the slave who carried her on the way had changed two rounds.

"Your Highness." Wei Shu got off the slave's back and ran to Jiang Qingluan: "How is the scenery here?"

Jiang Qingluan bowed her head slightly: "Compared to Wanli Fengxue, it's really good to see traces of birds and beasts here."

"Besides, I don't feel cold anymore when I come to this place," Wei Shu said.

It is true that the temperature here is higher than other places. Just now, Bale also checked, and it is true that there is geothermal heat below, but there is no obvious sulfur smell.

Jiang Qingluan has already found out what Jiang Qingluan wanted to investigate, and originally wanted to leave directly, but Mudan had already guessed what the king was thinking, and repeatedly told Jiang Qingluan that if he wanted to play, he should do it enough.

"Then how about we go shopping?" Wei Shu looked expectant.

Jiang Qingluan nodded: "Miss Wei leads the way."

In fact, there is nothing interesting in this small place, but they stayed in a daze until the sunset and the group of people left. Wei Shu originally invited Jiang Qingluan to ride in the car, but Jiang Qingluan was indeed a little tired, so she found an excuse to refuse, and rode a horse to follow at the end , this is no better than during the day, the sun has not set in the evening, it is still warmer than in the morning, and naturally there are more people coming and going.

"What's that?" Jiang Qingluan noticed that outside a nearby village, a dozen people were chained and some soldiers were escorting them.

Bale recognized the escorted soldiers as soldiers from Niandong County, but he didn't know why.

"I'll ask."

"reply ASAP."

Ba Le rode his horse and ran towards the village, and of course followed two slaves. Jiang Qingluan still followed Wei Shu's horse at an even speed.She looked at Wei Shu's carriage, and Jiang Qingluan really felt that this girl was very pitiful. Originally, she and her would not appear in the same world at all. If there was anything wrong with this girl, it was true. The fault was that Wei Xin was too pedantic , I want to use everything to achieve my so-called righteousness.

But for Wei Shu, Jiang Qingluan will still respect and keep him at a distance. The other party has impure thoughts, so naturally he must avoid suspicion.

After a while, seeing Baler returning on horseback, both the man and the horse were panting, which made the cold winter feel even colder.

"Your Majesty, I have asked clearly."

"Say."

Ba Le pulled the horse towards Jiang Qingluan, and said: "The soldiers who asked, the soldiers saw that they were the carriages and horses of the Wei Mansion, and they told the truth. The thing is like this. It is said that there is a defected slave. Now, after escaping, they were begging for food in the village, but they were discovered by the county magistrate in charge, and all three clans of the head of the village were arrested."

"It seems that torture will be imposed again." Jiang Qingluan said, based on her understanding of Wei Xin, this person is pedantic in two ways, one is that he believes too much in torture; the other is that he believes too much in teaching. These are two extremes. Another extreme is to educate the people in Niangui County and torture the people outside the county, as if the people in the county are human beings, leaving Niandong County, the rest are animals.

"I heard that they are going to be taken to Niandong County to repair ditches for warfare."

Jiang Qingluan slightly reined in the horse, and was also a little surprised. If it was to build a trench for combat, it meant that the entire Fuyang County was not peaceful.

"So is there going to be a war?"

"The soldiers don't know either," Baller replied.

The corner of Jiang Qingluan's mouth curled up. If he guessed right, the slaves in Fuyang County are probably very powerful now. After all, the entire east of Fuyang in Niandong County is far away from the center. Moreover, the slaves here are more powerful than those in other places. , is much more peaceful, but slaves have fled here, and the ditch to protect the city was suddenly repaired. This only means one thing, that is, the number of slaves who rebelled has increased, and it has a great impact on the county government. The threat is also big enough.

"It seems that we are one step closer to freedom." Jiang Qingluan said, Chang Lan's appearance inexplicably appeared in her mind again, and she became more and more convinced that the current messy scene seemed to be from Chang Lan's hands. Marching to fight against Chang Lan I haven't experienced it, but playing tricks is her specialty.

Peony, who had been quiet at the side, also whispered, "I hope so."

"Nurse is not satisfied?" Jiang Qingluan's slightly disappointed voice was heard.

"If there is a shortcut, Your Highness won't take it. You have to make this Fu Kingdom so messy." Mudan said.

"This Fu Kingdom was originally fragmented." Jiang Qingluan replied: "That's why I came back alone."

"The old lady is just talking about her own thoughts." Mudan said, "Your Highness can listen to it if you want, or you don't want to."

This is a stubborn old woman. Jiang Qingluan has always respected her, and cooperating with Wei Xin is indeed a shortcut, but she doesn't want to let herself and Chang Lan down.

"I'm tired of being alone." Jiang Qingluan said: "I'm back, take a good rest, but I have to recover my energy and wait for my big talisman to be recovered."

Twelfth lunar month 22 in Ximojia Village, Fushan

Feng Jia touched the newly issued armor, never thought that three generations of slaves in his family could wear the clothes of soldiers.Not far from Feng Jia's side, most people also held the armor and were reluctant to let go. Not only did they feel that they were no longer slaves for the first time, but at the same time, with such a set of armor, they even felt that it was not a good idea to win Fuyang County. question.

"Feng Jia, I heard that your arm was injured?" Youtu sat down beside Feng Jia. He was wearing a general's helmet, which he snatched from the previous city. The man didn't know whether it counted or not. General, in short, the size is an official.

"Small injury." Feng Jia replied. When he ascended the city, his wrist was scratched by the sword. Fortunately, it was his left hand, otherwise it would be difficult to lift the sword.

"Taking this village, we can go to Niandong County next step." Youtu said, with an unspeakable smile on his face.

"Don't you want to go to Fuyang County?" Feng Jia asked. They had been overcoming obstacles all the way, but they heard a rabbit said that they wanted to take down Fuyang County, take down the head of the county official and hang it in the city wall.

"Go later." Said the rabbit.The army in Fuyang County is the strongest in the county, and Jiang Xuanyu is in charge. Youtu knows that with his own ability, it is okay to fight these small cities, but if he fights those big counties, he will kill himself.

"It will take a few more days to go to Fuyang County. We don't have enough food, right?"

A rabbit looked outside the village and replied, "It will be enough soon."

"What do you mean?" Feng Jia was puzzled.

A rabbit said: "The grain and grass will arrive today."

"Food and grass?" Feng Jia originally thought that he was just a group of stragglers, so he never thought that there would be such a good thing as grain and grass delivery.

"Yeah." You Tu watched the sun gradually set to the west, and it seemed that it should be the end of the day: "Feng Jia, you are now a centurion, go out with me to meet my lord."

"Is your master?" Feng Jia asked.

"Master?" A rabbit thought for a while: "No, we don't have a master."

The girl was wearing a thick fur, and her whole face was covered under the fur of the snow fox. All she could see were her bright and wise eyes. She quietly looked at the small town in front of her. The first stop of her trip to Fuxi.

"Princess, the Mo Family Village is ahead."

The girl turned her head to look at the four-horse carriage that was following behind her. The carriage was full of food from Baili County. If it was easier to go through the secret passage, perhaps more things would be delivered safely.

Her face was covered with fur, and she couldn't speak easily. With a wave of her hand, she clamped the horse's leg, and the group of people walked forward slowly.
