The General and the Princess

The spring breeze in March gently brushed the cheeks, with a touch of peach blossom fragrance and soil moisture.

The second prince stood in front of the plow in a splendid attire, with a solemn and solemn expression.

Di Shengyue looked at the second prince and frowned slightly.

The second prince's appearance, looked at from a distance, was somewhat similar to Xiao Yinxue's prayer day.

The second prince held the two ends of the plow with both hands, and pushed it forward slowly under the pull of the ox.

It seemed that he was used to being pampered, but after pushing back and forth, the second prince's forehead was full of sweat.

He panted slightly, paused for a while, and continued pushing.

Xiao Yinxue looked at the scene in front of her, glanced at Di Shengyue, and said, "Is this your plan?"

"Princess, can you see what is coming?" Di Shengyue asked with a smile.

"This plow is a bit unusual." Xiao Yinxue said slowly, "What did you do?"

"There is a peculiar kind of wood in the northern border called 'stone wood'. It looks like ordinary wood, but it is extremely heavy. The plow in the hands of the second prince is now specially made of stone wood." Di Shengyue said.

In the spring plowing ceremony, the emperor needs to plow three to nine times. The more times, the more it proves that the emperor attaches great importance to spring plowing.

It's just that the current emperor is a lazy person, he is too tired to cultivate the land, and the emperor is old, so he usually chooses six times.

But if the prince does it for him, in order to leave a good impression in front of the emperor, the prince will usually choose nine times.

Because of this, the fourth prince negotiated with her to replace it with stone and wood, so that the second prince could not walk back and forth nine times.

Even with the ability shown by the second prince, it might be too much to walk back and forth three times.

As soon as Di Shengyue finished speaking, the second prince had already plowed three times back and forth, but he didn't intend to stop.

He gritted his teeth and continued to push the plow.

Six back and forth.

The blood on the second prince's face gradually rose, and the second prince's entire face gradually turned red. Beads of sweat dripped down his forehead drop by drop, his legs trembled, and even his steps began to become slightly messy.

I thought that the sixth prince would stop at this time, but he gritted his teeth and continued to push.

Every step left a deep mark on the ground.

Di Shengyue looked at the second prince, and there was a faint light in her deep eyes.

The perseverance of the second prince is astonishing.

"Princess, even with an ox leading me, pushing stones and trees nine times back and forth, even I can barely make it through." What's more, the pampered second prince.

Di Shengyue said slowly.

However, this second prince insisted on it for nine times.

He pursed his lips tightly, and there was no trace of blood on his lips.

Just bowed deeply to the emperor, that is Li Cheng.

The emperor saw the second prince doing nine back and forth, his face was full of approval.

After the second prince finished the first plowing, the rest of the princes and nobles began to plow. They only needed to plow three to five times.

Xiao Yinxue held both hands on the plow, and Di Shengyue's palm covered the back of her hand, gently holding her little hand.

Di Shengyue stood behind her, clinging to her back. This posture almost surrounded her in her arms.

Xiao Yinxue's cheeks were slightly red: "What are you doing, so many people are watching."

"Princess, ordinary people also plow the land like this." Di Shengyue laughed.

"Really?" Xiao Yinxue looked at Di Shengyue suspiciously.

"Of course it's true. Isn't it often said in the market that husband and wife are of one heart? This is unity." Di Shengyue said solemnly, "Princess, don't be distracted. You see, everyone else has started. The princess, the plow. It’s a disgrace to be the last one.”

Xiao Yinxue originally wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Di Shengyue, so she could only focus on plowing the land.

Di Shengyue's strides are relatively large, usually as soon as Xiao Yinxue takes a step, Di Shengyue's strides are already ahead of her.

But Di Shengyue didn't walk beside her, and always walked through her steps.

With Di Shengyue's steps, her knee lightly rubbed against the middle of her steps.

Xiao Yinxue turned her head away and glared at Di Shengyue, but she didn't speak yet.

The plow hit the ground hard, and Di Shengyue's knee pushed up hard.

Xiao Yinxue shuddered all over, and almost screamed out.

Her knees gave way, and if she hadn't been holding on to the plow with her hands, she would almost have fallen to her knees, her legs trembling faintly.

"You bastard!" Xiao Yinxue gritted her teeth, angrily angrily suppressed her voice.

"Princess, don't blame me for this matter." Di Shengyue blinked and said, "I'm used to this walking speed. If I didn't pay attention, I stepped in front of the princess."

"Can't you stretch your legs in another place!" Xiao Yinxue said with a blushing face.

Stretch to that kind of place!

"Hold on to the side!" Xiao Yinxue pointed to the other end of the bar, and said to Di Shengyue.

"Okay." Di Shengyue smiled, obediently grabbed one side of the crossbar, and walked beside Xiao Yinxue.

Xiao Yinxue grabbed the other side, thinking she could lift it as easily as before, but found that the plow was so heavy that she couldn't move it at all.

Xiao Yinxue pursed her lips, and whispered to Di Shengyue: "Your hand, come here."

Di Shengyue raised the corners of her lips, reached out to Xiao Yinxue's end, and grabbed the crossbar.

As she pushed the plow, her elbow leaned back slightly and pressed against her heart.

Xiao Yinxue's cheeks turned red once, this Di Shengyue, no matter what position she changed, she could still tease her!

Xiao Yinxue tried changing positions a few times, and Di Shengyue could always touch her accurately.

"Be quiet!" Xiao Yinxue finally couldn't help it, and said angrily.

"Yes, my princess." Di Shengyue smiled and stopped teasing Xiao Yinxue.

Xiao Yinxue breathed a sigh of relief.

She lowered her head and pushed for a while. Seeing that Di Shengyue was being honest, she gradually relaxed a little.

Raising her head, she saw beads of sweat dripping from Di Shengyue's forehead.

It was only then that Xiao Yinxue remembered that the work of pushing the plow was basically done by Di Shengyue, and she just followed along.

Xiao Yinxue lifted up her sleeves and wiped the sweat off Di Shengyue's forehead.

A smile appeared on Di Shengyue's mouth, she said to Xiao Yinxue: "Princess, my hair seems to be loose, please help me fix it."

Di Shengyue lowered her head slightly, and motioned for Xiao Yinxue.

Xiao Yinxue raised her hand, her sleeves drooped, just covering their faces.

Di Shengyue secretly kissed Xiao Yinxue on the cheek.

"You..." Xiao Yinxue blushed, but didn't say anything yet.

Di Shengyue stopped suddenly.

Before Xiao Yinxue could stop in time, she was tripped by Di Shengyue, and she threw herself into Di Shengyue's arms.

Di Shengyue embraced Xiao Yinxue in her arms.

With the soft jade in her arms, Di Shengyue sniffed the faint fragrance in Xiao Yinxue's hair, and couldn't help rubbing her slender waist.

"Princess, this time you took the initiative to throw yourself into your arms." Di Shengyue laughed.

"It's clearly you!" Xiao Yinxue said angrily.

"Princess, we've already finished pushing, so naturally we have to stop." Di Shengyue smiled, "It's the princess, she's all about me, and she didn't pay attention to her surroundings."

Xiao Yinxue's cheeks turned redder.

"Shameless," she said.

It was obvious that Di Shengyue had deliberately attracted her attention.

Xiao Yinxue broke free from Di Shengyue's arms, and quickly took two steps back.

She never thought that there was a crossbar behind her, but the crossbar suddenly shook violently, flicked her lower back, and bounced Xiao Yinxue into Di Shengyue's arms again.

"Princess, is my embrace just for you to like?" Di Shengyue couldn't help laughing.

Xiao Yinxue's face was red, and she pinched Di Shengyue's arm: "Do you think I don't know about your little tricks?"

"All my little actions are because I like the princess." Di Shengyue looked at Xiao Yinxue and whispered in her ear.

A blush slowly floated onto Xiao Yinxue's cheeks, making her whole cheeks bright red, really pretty.

He Ziyi has been paying attention to Di Shengyue's side, and seeing the interaction between her and Xiao Yinxue, he couldn't help sighing in his heart: The general can still play.

She tried to be like a general, walking behind Xiao Ningxin, taking advantage of the situation to stretch her legs in the middle.

Xiao Ningxin's legs are too long.

she can't reach...

A blush of embarrassment appeared on He Ziyi's cheeks, and she quietly pulled back her legs, pretending nothing happened.

Concubine Li looked at it from afar and almost laughed out loud.

The bright red lips were pursed into a line, slightly curved upwards.

"What makes Concubine Ai so happy?" The emperor looked at Concubine Li with a hint of obsession in his eyes.

"The concubine is happy for the emperor when she sees the prosperity of Xiao country." Concubine Li said with a light laugh.

"My concubine loves me deeply," said the emperor.

The queen glanced at the two of them, with a little more coldness in her eyes.

After a while, everyone finished plowing.

The palace people of each palace were holding a box of seeds and sprinkled the seeds on the plowed places.

"Look!" The people suddenly became commotion again.

One after another, green shoots emerged from the place where the third prince had plowed, like bamboo shoots after a rain, popping out at an extremely fast speed, instantly turning the land into a green color.

Xiao Yinxue looked at the scene in front of her with some surprise.

The people were all stunned by the scene in front of them, unable to recover for a while.

"All blessings to the Second Prince, all blessings to the Emperor, and all blessings to Xiao Country!" The common people fell to their knees one after another.

Food is the basis for the people to live and work, and there is no picture that is more impactful than the current one.

Different from Xiao Yinxue's illusory glow that day, the second prince's appearance today hit the hearts of the people hard.

the will of the people.

Seeing this, the fourth prince almost gritted his teeth.He didn't expect that the second prince had such a counselor.

The Second Prince's sudden emergence suddenly overwhelmed the Fourth Prince's limelight.

Even though he doesn't have enough power yet, the second prince is one step ahead and has the public opinion.

Di Shengyue's eyes dimmed a bit, and she looked deeply in the direction of the second prince.

"Princess, Cheng Quite really counts everything." Di Shengyue sneered, "He took advantage of the plans of me and the Fourth Prince."

"What's going on?" Xiao Yinxue asked.

"Stonewood, a special plant, besides being heavy, has another characteristic that most people don't know about." Di Shengyue said, "There is a kind of flower called marble flower parasitic on the stonewood. Inside the stonewood, there is a special transparent Slime can instantly germinate marble flowers. What the second prince sprinkled here just now are the seeds of marble flowers. The second prince insisted on dragging the stone wood back and forth nine times, not only to show off in front of the emperor, but also to let the slime on it Fully integrated into the land. Stone trees and marble flowers, unless they are people who live in the northern region all the year round, they will never know. In this capital, anyone who has something to do with the northern region and can have such a plan is also Only Prime Minister Gao is left! How does he mean to support a puppet?"

What puppet?

Which puppet can be so popular?

Prime Minister Gao's actions were clearly aimed at winning the hearts of the people for the Second Prince.

Why do you want to win over.

Because Prime Minister Gao wanted the second prince to be emperor from the very beginning!

Is the Second Prince really stupid?

At least the persistence he showed today, combined with what happened in Peach Blossom Palace a few days ago, made it difficult for Di Shengyue to look down on this person.

As if he noticed Di Shengyue's gaze, the second prince smiled at him, showing his usual silly smile.

Now Di Shengyue finally understood why the prime minister's attitude towards Xiao Yinxue was sometimes a little subtle.

It's more like a test, to test her and the second prince, who is more suitable to be the emperor.

If it is a test, it means that the prime minister has planned to support the second prince from the very beginning.

Di Shengyue's words also awakened Xiao Yinxue.

"You mean, from the very beginning, grandfather planned to support the second younger brother?" Xiao Yinxue asked.

Di Shengyue nodded.

"It's just that I don't understand." Xiao Yinxue said, "Grandfather should hate Concubine Rou just like me."

"Compared to the emperor's own killing of his wife and son, Concubine Rou's ingratitude is nothing." Di Shengyue said slowly, "What's more."

Di Shengyue looked at the second prince, then at Xiao Yinxue, and stopped talking.

The author has something to say: He Ziyi laughed me to death
