The woman who saluted him was that kind of person.
He averted his eyes without cutting, and put his eyes on the Ye Shengsi next to her, "You are the seventh prince of the Dazhida Kingdom, Ye Shengsi, as the rumors say, you are handsome and talented... "
No matter how it sounds, these words don't seem to be admiring a person, Ye Shengsi can tell that this prince may not like himself and his little sister very much.
"My lord is absurd." He replied unflatteringly.
"Get up." Feng Xihe waved his hand, indicating that they could sit down.
Ye Jiu'er didn't notice the unnaturalness in the atmosphere at all, and sat down on the chair in embarrassment, speaking and behaving like a country girl, but she couldn't see the self-cultivation of being a princess at all.Feng Xihe's brows could pinch a mosquito to death. He really couldn't associate this woman with Princess An. The subject of much elaboration.
He doesn't like women who are too active, because he has seen too many women who are close to means for fame and fortune, and he values more the inner side.
If Concubine An is a talented woman, then the woman who has no image at this moment, sitting on a chair like a puddle of mud, is a pale clam pearl.
There is simply no comparison possible.
"The Empress asked me to bring you a letter, take it and have a look." Feng Xihe took out the letter from his long sleeve, and the personal guard beside him held it and handed it to Ye Shengsi.
After receiving the letter, Ye Shengsi was a little overwhelmed with excitement. Regardless of whether the Yi Kingdom is willing to send troops to help the Dazhida Kingdom, this letter can at least prove that the Empress did not completely block the road. He said gratefully: "Saints thank you Your Majesty! Please trouble the prince!"
Feng Xihe took a sip from the teacup by the table, watched as Ye Shengsi couldn't wait to open the letter, read it bit by bit, his excited face became heavy with the passage of words, until it solidified.
"Heh!" He chuckled boringly, mocking this person for dreaming of wishful thinking in this turbulent and turbulent era, people must be self-aware.
If it weren't for Princess An's face, Feng Xihe believed that the Queen Mother would not let these two guys stay here. It is ridiculous that a small sesame seed country actually wants to swallow the elephant's daydream .
After reading the last word, Ye Shengsi's hand holding the letter trembled slightly. There was no word in the letter about sending troops to rescue the Dazhida Kingdom. people.
That person is Bin Yuan, the deposed prince of Fusang Kingdom that their country wants to attack.He has also heard about this man. He was usurped by his fifth younger brother, and even his biological father was killed. In order to save his life, he abandoned his royal status and voluntarily went into business. He heard about the toilet paper that is now sold very popular in the mainland. It was invented by the prince.
Everyone knows this.
Not long ago, he also saw the arrest warrant, and looking at the content of the letter, maybe he could really talk to that person.
"How are you thinking?" Feng Xihe yawned and asked impatiently.
"If I'm free some other day, I'll visit in person." Ye Shengsi looked at the letter in difficulty, and asked again apologetically, "But I don't know where Binyuan lives?"
"It's not difficult. He's in Phoenix City. I heard that Fenghua Xueyue's shop is run by him. I think it shouldn't be difficult for you to visit in person." He doesn't know if it's difficult or not, but he still remembers that shop. Although gentlemen love beauty, although they don't love to put on some rouge and powder like women, but good-looking clothes will always be sought after by nobles.
Half of the clothes he wears now come from his own tailor-made textile factory, and the other half come from Feng Hua Xue Yue's products. He can't argue whether it is good or bad, but the clothes sold in that man's shop are more fitting and convenient. There are also some places where hidden weapons can be hidden, which is quite to his liking.
"Thank you, my lord, for reminding me!" Ye Shengsi thanked.
Ye Jiu'er, who had been unable to speak at the side, pouted angrily, and grabbed Ye Shengsi's sleeve in a place where no one else could see. Seeing her brother ignoring her, she turned her head away angrily.
After Feng Xihe left, seeing that there were no servants around, Ye Shengsi angrily taught the younger sister: "Jiu'er, what did I tell you? This is not Dazhida, don't be so willful! If you offend that nobleman, We may not be able to get out of this land!" Looking at the little girl who didn't listen to the persuasion, he was particularly troubled.
It's all the fault of the father and mother for getting used to the younger sister and always letting her come here according to her temper. If this kind of temper is not kept intact, it will cause trouble one day.
"I don't think that person is very angry! Seventh brother, you are always mediocre..." Ye Jiu'er didn't think so at all. She saw the prince smiling at her just now, and she felt that the prince was not at all. I hate myself, maybe I am fascinated by my own beauty.
Thinking of this, she smiled a little shyly, the shy look of a young girl Hanchun made Ye Shengsi couldn't bear to look directly at him and was helpless.
Binyuan checked the cashier in the warehouse, saw that it was getting late, and was about to call it a day, and sneezed three times in a row, "Don't catch a cold..." He murmured to himself a little scared, anyway, for taking medicine Something, already had fear.
After closing the account book, Bin Yuan stretched her waist. Liang Yuci, who was recording the account book on the other side of the warehouse, had just finished work. He extinguished a row of candles in the tent, and Bin Yuan slammed into the pillars of the gate in a black light.
"Hey, hello!" Bin Yuan rubbed her forehead that was hurt by the impact, and complained, "Yu Ci, why did you blow out the candle on my side, I can't see the way!"
Liang Yuci, who was walking ahead, rubbed his head foolishly, and hurriedly carried a lantern to illuminate Binyuan: "I forgot, my Highness, don't blame me."
"You~" Bin Yuan smiled and shook her head, this guy is sometimes too busy and too absorbed, always forgetting him.
After coming out of the warehouse, looking up, the starry sky all over the sky converges into a dotted fluorescent river, everything is quiet, and the noisy birds in the daytime are quiet.
Binyuan looked at it for a while, then walked forward together with Liang Yuci.
In the past few days, the erythema on his body has disappeared a lot, and the erythema on his face is gone. He wears tighter clothes, and he looks as if he is not sick.His recovery does not mean that the plague in Phoenix City has disappeared. On the contrary, many nobles in the city have contracted the disease. Up to now, the imperial doctors have been helpless with this disease and put on an attitude of letting fate.
Binyuan thought about it. He didn't know if some of the anti-plague knowledge he knew in modern times was useful. He walked halfway and asked the staff next to him: "Tell me, what is the source of this plague?"
"Your Highness can't even figure it out, and of course it's hard for us to guess." Liang Yuci followed Binyuan closely with a lantern in his hand. He could only answer His Highness's question helplessly, shaking his shoulders.
Plague is inevitable in times of war and chaos. It is said that hundreds of years ago, a country could not resist this disease, which caused the entire country to cease to exist. It will still be a myth to this day.
"Leave these matters to the imperial court." Liang Yuci frowned. He was also very afraid of the plague that would come and go without a trace. It’s hard to guess if it’s not true? This country is densely populated, so what if some caravan passed through the country of the undead and brought this damn disease?”
"The Kingdom of the Undead? What is this?" Bin Yuan stopped abruptly, turned her head and asked Liang Yuci.
"Your Highness, you don't even know this, do you?" Liang Yuci opened his mouth slightly with a shocked expression.
Binyuan frowned, and for a moment, she answered uncertainly: "Could it be that the northern country that no one has set foot on so far?"
He still vaguely remembers the untrodden country introduced in the novel, where ten months of the year are buried by heavy snow, and only two months can see the enviable spring, it is an extremely harsh and unlivable country tough place.
☆、Particle failure
"Exactly." Liang Yuci nodded: "Historical records record that an unprecedented plague occurred in that country 200 years ago. When we realized that the matter was too serious, the common people were almost dead."
"What then?"
"Later, I don't know what happened later. This is only recorded in the history books, but there are many versions circulated among the people. Some people said that the emperor of the Northern Kingdom moved out of the Northern Kingdom with his descendants. Where did he go? No one will know."
The novel was not summarized in detail at the beginning, so Binyuan is still in a state of being half-confessed and can't figure it out.
According to the development process of the novel, after the protagonist Kulada Baman united with the Dazhida army to annihilate the Fusang Kingdom, he chased the emperor Binshang who escaped from the palace all the way to the border of the Northern Kingdom. After he died, he never set foot in that cursed place again.
But Binyuan knew that Binshang in the novel should not have died, because the one who escaped with him was Wu Si, the general of Zhenguo who had been escorting him all the time.
You can say that he is very old-fashioned, but he is loyal to Binshang, who became the emperor. Even after the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, and the imperial city was attacked by the enemy, Binshang was the first to protect him. He escaped from the country of subjugation and plunged headlong into the snow country where no one dared to set foot.
Back in the bedroom, Mo Ye brought hot water in a short while, and after tidying up the change of clothes, he closed the door and waited outside.Binyuan took off her clothes and took a bath, checked the erythema on her body that was disappearing day by day, and felt much happier.
As a result, it was only halfway through the shower when there was a yelling sound from outside the house.
"Your Highness! I need to see Your Highness urgently! There are two people who claim to be the envoys of Dazhi Da Kingdom, please see Your Highness!"
Mo Ye intercepted the maid, stood outside the door and reprimanded the reckless maid: "Your Highness is taking a bath, it's inconvenient now, just let those two wait in the front hall."
The maid who notified her blushed, nodded in agreement, and hurried back.
Binyuan put on her clothes and opened the door, her long wet hair was still dripping on her shoulders, "What's the matter?"
Mo Ye saw His Highness like this, and the mother's mentality burst out again: "Your Highness, you must not go like this. What if you are sick. This subordinate will wipe your hair first, and there will be no delay."
Binyuan looked at her long wet hair and thought it was the same, so she went back to the room and sat on a chair, letting Mo Yezai brush his hair carefully.
"What did the maid just say?" He was taking a bath at the time, so he didn't have time to hear it clearly.
Mo Ye frowned, "There are two envoys from the Dazhida Kingdom asking for an audience..." It may not be a good thing to ask for an audience at such a critical moment, because I am afraid that the envoys are here for the war between the two countries.
"From Dazhi Daguo?" Bin Yuan also frowned, not knowing whether she came here for the reward on the arrest warrant or for other things.
Few people know that he lives here. Ordinary people don't know that the wanted criminal lives in the Phoenix City of Yi Country. The people who are more informed are those with high positions, such as: relatives of the royal family, high-ranking officials, rich and powerful, and businessmen. Collaborators on the field.
After drinking the third cup of tea, the person he wanted to meet still didn't come, Ye Jiu threw the teacup out angrily, and the maid at the side didn't know her, so she obediently cleaned up the broken teacup and left the front hall .
"Seventh brother! I think this person is probably trying to show us off. You managed to spare some time to meet him, but he still hides!"
Ye Shengsi frowned, and said casually: "Be careful that the wall has ears, little girl..."
Ye Jiu'er didn't agree with that at all, thinking that she is also a dignified princess of a country, and the other party is just a person of business status, so what face does she have to put on airs in front of their royal relatives.
"I think he is a lowly pariah!" Ye Jiu'er uttered a deafening sarcasm, afraid that the servant hiding in the dark would not hear him.
"Enough!" Ye Shengsi reprimanded the younger sister: "He used to be a crown prince anyway, younger sister, you must not say that, if you fall into the tongue of others, you will not only lose your face, but also lose your knowledge." The face of the royal family of Daguo!"
Seeing that Ye Shengsi was slightly angry, Ye Jiu'er, who didn't dare to add fuel to the fire, held his breath in his stomach, and vented his anger at the teapot next to him.
In fact, when she just finished saying that sentence, Bin Yuan outside the door just heard that sentence directed at him. Mo Ye's face was as black as coal, and he wanted to go in and teach the woman who was open-minded, but Bin Yuan blocked.
The two stood at the door for a while, before Binyuan opened the door and walked in: "You two visit late at night, please forgive me for being negligent. After all, it's so late, it took a while to crawl out of the bed."
"Don't dare!" Ye Shengsi did not expect to meet such a handsome man. He always thought that the person who would willingly give up his royal status would be the kind of drug addict with evil eyebrows and mouse eyes, but the man he saw completely overthrew him before. The speculation even shocked him.
"Your mansion has not neglected for a moment, and the tea in the mansion is also very good. My little sister and I have lost manners when we visited late at night. It is us who should apologize." Ye Shengsi said, stopped with his eyes and asked Angry little girl.
Binyuan took his seat at the main seat, and Mo Ye stood behind him with a sword in his hand, looking at the woman who spoke with cold eyes, it was this woman who just spoke out loud in the room, and now she saw His Highness herself, she was silently closed mouth.
He didn't need this kind of woman, and even hated her, so he just glanced at her, and then looked away as if he was disgusted.
"Under Binyuan, I run a small business. May I ask your Excellency?"
"Dazhida Seventh Prince Ye Shengsi."
Binyuan pretended to be surprised, and put on a lot of face for the other party: "So it's His Royal Highness, how offensive you were just now!"
"Knowing that I have offended you, why don't you kneel down and apologize!" Ye Jiu'er muttered while holding a teacup.
Her voice was neither loud nor low, but it happened that everyone present could hear her clearly.
Bin Yuan's face froze with a smile, and quickly covered it up, of course he wouldn't care about a woman, but it all depends on the character of Ye Shengsi.
"My little girl is always reckless, Mr. Bin doesn't have to take her words to heart." Ye Shengsi sweated for himself, his teeth itching with regret, he knew this little girl was always going out to make trouble, It's better to throw her in the palace and accompany her father and mother later.
Mo Ye held the sword tightly, if His Highness hadn't warned him to be patient in everything and not to be too fussy, he would have liked to go forward to get to know the woman.
This embarrassment passed quickly, and we got back on track after chatting about the problem.
"I hope I will go to Dazhida as a guest..." Binyuan looked at Ye Shengsi who looked expectantly. Of course, the decision to go or not is up to her, but people cannot be offended.
He smiled, held the teacup to brew for a while, and then replied: "I think His Royal Highness also knows that I must not be wanted as a wanted person. Of course, I am still very willing to make friends with His Royal Highness."
That is nothing to talk about.
When Ye Shengsi came, he knew that it might not be that simple. If Binyuan was the kind of person who only cares about money, it would be much easier to handle. He is not short of money, so if he uses it a little bit, he can get some information .But the bad thing is that Bin Yuan is not that kind of person. He can tell from the verbal chat that although this person doesn't have much patriotism, he doesn't hate Bin Yuan.
"It's an honor to be friends with such a free, easy and capable person like Mr. Bin." Ye Shengsi retracted his eyes, and his tone was more polite.
After seeing off the two envoys, Binyuan pretended to be puzzled and went back to the bedroom, where she saw her elder brother sitting on her bed resting.
When Bin Xu heard the door opening and familiar footsteps, he knew it was Bin Yuan: "How is the situation?"
Binyuan took off her shoes and lay down on the bed, leaning on her eldest brother's legs as a pillow, said sullenly: "I don't know yet, but it seems that the Seventh Prince is not a treacherous person, but I just don't know what his real purpose is. "
Feeling the third brother's coquettish tone in his arms, the atmosphere seemed to be back in those days, Binxu stretched out his hand to comb a few strands of hair scattered on Binyuan's face, and comforted him: "Just observe for a while. If the situation is really Not good, just leave here and go to Nanban."
Bin Yuan nodded, and knew that this was the second book, and they certainly didn't want to leave in such a hurry unless it was absolutely necessary, because it would not only lose a lot of money, but also be a waste of manpower.
"Everything is up to my brother."
At the beginning of June, Phoenix City became the place where swallows dominated the world. The plague was brought under control, and the price of herbal medicines gradually increased so that ordinary people couldn't afford them.
At the same time, Bayiman and Ye Jiu arrived at the border city of Nanman Kingdom, Xizhi City, one month earlier.
When the team of dozens of people arrived, the hot weather in June was like fire, and the city encountered an unspeakable drought, and almost no grain was harvested. It happened that the king's capital came to pay taxes, and the city lord Yaguin couldn't produce enough. For food, the officials who were taxed gave a severe lesson and were deprived of their official positions.
Ye Jiu placed the team in the inn, and led Bayiman to inquire along the crowded streets, and found the Yagu family who lived here at the entrance of a narrow alley.
Shalai went out to the back of the yard to hold firewood, and happened to run into Ye Jiu and Bayiman who came with gifts. They hadn't seen each other for more than a year. Of course, she couldn't tell, but Ye Jiu spoke in advance: "Excuse me, is this Yaman?" Is it Gu's residence?"
"Who are you?" Sha Lai shook the firewood that was about to fall away in his arms, moved away from Ye Jiu's face, stared at the young man beside him who looked very similar to his own clansman, his eyes suddenly widened, and exclaimed : "Barman!"
"Is it Barman?" Shalai threw the things on the ground, and excitedly came to the side of the boy Bayiman. He couldn't believe that the boy came back alive. Looking at the healthy body of the other party, the strong physique, the eyes The teardrops in Li fell off the line: "I always thought... thought that you would never come back in this life..."
"Ma'am, don't cry. We are going to the capital at the order of Lord Lang, and we passed through the city these few days." Bayiman hurriedly supported Sha Lai. For this wrinkled woman, he put her on his mother's shoulders. In the position, respect and love: "Look, ma'am, these are all brought here specially by the Lord Lang, to honor your old man."
Shalai wiped away tears with a smile, quickly invited the two into the yard, threw the firewood into the yard, put his hands on his hips, went to the kitchen and caught Yagu: "Look at you hiding in the kitchen all day What does it look like in here, the guests don’t even know when they come!”
The rough man who was pulled out by the ear was confused, his face was distorted with pain, and he was about to complain, when he turned his head and saw two more people appeared in his yard.
"You are the person next to Mr. Bin, right? The one next to you is Baman!" Yagu exclaimed for a while, came to the boy's side, patted the boy's tough shoulders, and smiled honestly: "You boy, you will not grow up anymore!" Less! Come on, come on, why are you carrying so many things in your hand!"
"These are gifts from the Lord Lang." Baiman handed the things to Shalai, and sat down on the wooden stool in the yard.
Although things have changed since he came back this time, and the city lord who was kind to him is no longer the lord of the city, his respect for his benefactor has not diminished in the slightest. He knelt down beside Yagu and slammed a Ring your head.
Yagu's face froze, he stepped forward, angrily lifted the boy up: "What are you doing?"
Baiman thanked him solemnly: "Thank you for your kindness. If you hadn't bought me from my employer, I would still be a despised slave now. It is still unknown whether I can live to this day. ..."
He will never forget this kindness.
"You are my citizen, how can I just watch you being enslaved by that greedy landowner!" Yagu pulled Baiman up and sat him down on the stool. Sweeping said with relief: "My choice is indeed right. I have grown a lot. Mr. Bin has not let me down!"
Ye Jiu rubbed the tip of his nose with a smear on his face: "That's right, our Highness always keeps what we say."
Bayiman smiled, remembering that when he came here, the city was even more bleak than last year, and he was sincerely puzzled: "My lord, isn't the seed that the Lord gave to your lord last year not good?" Logically speaking, it was specially purchased from the Grub Country The seeds have excellent drought resistance, even if there is a strong wind and sand, they will not be blown down. Such tenacious seeds should be easy to plant.
However, on the way he came, the land outside the city was dry and there was no sign of sowing, and the wells along the way did not have a drop of water. The drinking water for the people in the city was very scarce, which showed that the situation was getting worse.
Yagu was silent when he heard the words.
The three of them went back to the house. Shalai killed an old hen and cooked a sumptuous dinner, which was the only thing they could afford to entertain the guests.
At the dinner table, the heavy atmosphere oppressed everyone.After everyone had finished their meal, Shale left with the dishes, leaving these elders to talk about things.
"The tax in the royal capital is getting higher and higher..." In the end, Yagu touched the edge of the table, looked at the darkened wood color, and said sadly.
Ye Jiu has lived in Fusang Country since he was a child, which is rich in water and soil and free from natural disasters. What he saw and witnessed along the way let him know about this city, this country and its difficulties.
"Is that batch of seeds not good?" Ye Jiu frowned and asked, after asking the reason clearly, he planned to write a letter to His Highness tonight.
Yagu pursed his lips and lowered his head. The two of them could only see the top of his dry head and the messy hair. A suppressed voice came out of his mouth: "After you leave... the seed was originally It was planned to be planted in February, but the day after you left, the taxpayer from the royal capital arrived at Yizhi City and took everything away..."
"Damn it!" Baiman punched the table hard, and the table creaked.
Ye Jiu could only clenched his fists angrily, but there was no solution. They were on their way this time, and they brought very little cargo. All the important goods were delivered on a different route from the one they took. This was also for consideration. The road developed for the safety of items.
The reason why they passed by the city was mainly because His Highness entrusted them to visit Yagu. After all, Yagu still had some friendship with His Highness.
In the evening, Binyuan finished her busy day in the counting room and was just about to go back to sleep when a resonant eagle cry pierced the sky. On Chuyou's arm tied with a thick cloth strip.
Letters are tied to the eagle's legs, and only Fusang people like to use eagles instead of pigeons to deliver letters.
Chu You took the letter down, fed the eagle a few pieces of meat, stroked its hair, put it on the scaffold, and handed the letter to Binyuan who was sitting quietly waiting.
The letter was sent from the city of Nanman Kingdom, and there were only two letter eagles trained by Ye Jiu to follow the team, and the other eagles were all here.
Eagles send messages very quickly, and there are no enemies in the sky, which is much more convenient and safer than pigeons.
Opening the letter, Bin Yuan carefully read it, and finally frowned, thinking for a moment, "Mo Ye, bring the pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
"Yes." Mo Ye nodded and exited the bedroom, and went to the study to get things.
Liang Yuci didn't know which servant got the news from. Hearing that there was a letter, he hurried to Binyuan's bedroom. There was a sound coming from outside the door, and when we got to the door, we almost had to shout.
"Your Highness, Your Highness! Where's the letter?" Liang Yuci hurried into the room, not forgetting to close the door, and sat down on the cushion beside Binyuan, and saw the letter that His Highness held in his hand was crumpled. A mess, it can be seen that the content of the letter must be bad.
He timidly asked: "Is the news not very good?"
Binyuan eased her frowning brows, shook her head and nodded again, smiled wryly and could not answer: "It's not a big deal. Ye Jiuxin said that Yagu was dismissed from his official position because he couldn't pay the taxes needed by the royal city, and hey Zhicheng has no harvest..."
"How is this possible?" Liang Yuci exclaimed, not believing it at all.
He remembered that they had given enough seeds when they left, and they should have grown well this month, so how could there be no harvest.
"Show me." Liang Yuci took the letter from Binyuan's hand, spread it flat on the table, and read it carefully word by word, for fear of missing something important.
When Mo Ye came back with a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, he saw a person who wanted to move half of his body on the table, staring at a piece of paper, wishing to stare at it out of the hole.
After reading the letter, Liang Yuci shouted angrily: "Those heartless bastards even took away the seeds! It's so annoying!"
"Don't be angry, don't be angry." Binyuan comforted, dumbfounded: "In the past few days, I will send people to transport some grain and seeds. Although it is not a long-term solution, it can also solve the urgent need."
His idea is good, but distant water can't save near fire, after all, it's just a way to drink plums to quench thirst, and it has no effect.
Mo Ye arranged the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and objected with a calm face: "Your Highness, we don't have a lot of silver in the treasury, and most of the property has been taken away by His Majesty, so I'm afraid it won't help much."
Hearing this, Liang Yuci felt bad: "I said why are you so heartless? Your Highness said it just now, it's just to relieve the urgent need, and it doesn't want to be like this all the time."
"Shut up!" Mo Ye rolled his eyes at Liang Yuci, pushed the guy away from His Highness's side, and pushed him aside: "I think you're in a hurry, go get busy, Your Highness is here I'll take care of it."
"You!" Liang Yuci flicked his sleeves angrily, but refused to leave, "I am His Highness's lucky boy, you have no right to drive me away, do you Your Highness?"
Seeing this guy smiling brightly at her, Bin Yuan could only smile embarrassingly rubbing her forehead, thinking that these two people are really a pair of treasures.
In the early morning of the second day, a batch of herbal medicines transported from Fusang Kingdom was robbed. When Binyuan arrived on horseback, the door of the temporarily rented shop was crowded with bosses from different pharmacies. Crowded.
Mo Ye got off his horse and asked Bin Yuan to wait on the spot, "Your Highness, I'll go and have a look." After speaking, he headed towards the crowded crowd.
Bin Yuan frowned worriedly. He was not only afraid that the herbs would be sold out, but also worried about the sky-high price. Although his illness was cured, some ordinary people in the caravan were also infected with the plague and were quarantined. Now, everyone is waiting for the herbal medicine to save their lives. If the merchants selling herbal medicine are making black-hearted money at this time, I am afraid they will have nothing to do.
The imperial court has the imperial court's way of collecting medicines, and there is no need to crowd with the common people at all, which also suffers from the common people.
After a while, Mo Ye came out of the crowd with a sullen expression, "Your Highness, the price of this batch of herbs is several times higher than last month!" That is not to die of illness.
"At this juncture, what on earth is Binshang thinking?!" Binyuan tightened her grip on the horse rope, staring at the landowners who were grabbing herbs.
Mo Ye knew what His Highness was worried about, so he felt even more distressed: "Your Highness!" He held His Highness's shoulders tightly and shouted in a suppressed voice.
"Fusang Kingdom is coming to an end! This is not something you and I can stop, Your Highness! We worked hard to suppress the price of medicinal herbs, but Binshang raised the price of medicines several times at this juncture! Binshang now It’s not just nobles who offend, it’s a country! A country!”
Binyuan pushed Mo Ye's hand away, took a deep look at the place where the herbal medicine was sold, and walked back: "I know..." He has always known, he knows the plot, so he knows that country even if he No matter how much you stay, you will inevitably perish in the end.
Taking a deep breath, I looked up at the sky, the blue sky, the white clouds, untouchable, seemingly far away but very close.
In the imperial palace of the Yi Kingdom, all the civil and military officials played one after another, all complaining about the inhumane and unreasonable practices of the Fusang Kingdom in recent days.
A minister came up, staring at him, and said angrily: "People are doing it, but the sky is watching! Fusang Kingdom's move has chilled the hearts of the world and has been cast aside by the world. When our country is plagued by illness, as a Neighboring countries not only did not extend a helping hand, but also forced the people of our country to have no money to buy medicines with sky-high prices of medicines, and they died of illness and death, which is unacceptable!"
After the minister finished speaking, he bowed his head and stood in the line. After the civil servant finished speaking, a leader came from the military officer's side.
"Your Majesty! This is a good time!" Kang Yu, wearing silver armor, knelt down on one knee and begged sincerely: "Please allow the general to attack the Fusang Kingdom! The general will definitely live up to your majesty." expect!"
The court hall was remarkably quiet, and the aged empress opened her eyes even wider. Her heart had never been surging at this moment, as if she had returned to the turbulent time when she was young, the most glorious time.
No, although she is old, this country is not old, but still strong!
There are no real good people and bad people in this world, only cowardly countries are bullied by the strong, the empress narrowed her eyes, "You are worthy of being the general of our country!"
The general among the crowd smiled, with anger in his eyes, thirsting for blood and worshiping war, after decades of Cathay Pacific Ping An, the treasured sword in his waist can finally be unsheathed.
"A few days ago, I received a letter of covenant from the capital of the Nanman king, King Tagli. King Tagli said that he would help our country to take down Fusang!" The queen's vigorous and powerful voice penetrated the court, inspiring people's hearts.
"Yiguo will surely win!" General Kang Kai took advantage of the surging blood in the court hall and shouted, all kinds of echoes resounded through the air.
"The country will surely win! Your Majesty is wise!"
"The country will surely win! Your Majesty is wise!"
"The country will surely win! Your Majesty is wise!"
Back in the increasingly desolate yard, in the past you would always see wolf cubs running around in the yard, but now the only thing that is quiet in the yard is the chirping of birds.
Chu You and Du An were sent by him to deliver goods a long distance, and they will probably come back in the spring of next year. If they haven't changed places by then, it will be about that time.
The world is always changing, and there is no place to settle down.
Binyuan walked silently, and said to the people behind her: "I want to be alone, go down." Ignoring Mo Ye, she walked towards the bamboo forest behind the yard alone, and then ran away Get up, run and cry.
Everyone says that men don't flick their tears lightly, but Binyuan is the kind of person who can't afford to let go. He can't forget the old emperor who is old but in bad health. The father of this body gave him paternal love. , the father whose head was beheaded by Bin Shang.
The moon is very big, it is estimated to be almost fifteen, and the moon hanging in the clouds is also much colder.
Binyuan was leaning on the gazebo alone, looking at the shimmering moonlight in the water, smelling the fragrance of lotus leaves, until the sound of "Xiaoyuan" interrupted the dazed person, and he looked back, on the road leading to the gazebo. On the small stone road, I saw the eldest brother who walked this way regardless of his feeling.
"Brother, why are you here?" Binyuan quickly wiped away her tears with her sleeves, jumped off the pavilion with her feet up, and ran over to support Binxu: "This bamboo forest is full of strange rocks, if you want to come here, brother, at least call me A servant."
Binyuan breathed a sigh of relief when someone helped her to sit on the stool in the gazebo. After pouring a cup of hot tea for her eldest brother, she leaned against the pillar of the gazebo and remained silent again.
Taking a sip of the fragrant tea, although Bin Xu couldn't see it, he could feel the sadness in the air: "I heard from Mo Ye that the price of medicinal herbs has increased again recently, and the medicinal herbs you bought at a high price are sold at a low price I'm afraid it won't last long. You can smell it, there is a lot of sex in the air, and the war is not far away."
☆、The country is broken and the family is dead
cold
He averted his eyes without cutting, and put his eyes on the Ye Shengsi next to her, "You are the seventh prince of the Dazhida Kingdom, Ye Shengsi, as the rumors say, you are handsome and talented... "
No matter how it sounds, these words don't seem to be admiring a person, Ye Shengsi can tell that this prince may not like himself and his little sister very much.
"My lord is absurd." He replied unflatteringly.
"Get up." Feng Xihe waved his hand, indicating that they could sit down.
Ye Jiu'er didn't notice the unnaturalness in the atmosphere at all, and sat down on the chair in embarrassment, speaking and behaving like a country girl, but she couldn't see the self-cultivation of being a princess at all.Feng Xihe's brows could pinch a mosquito to death. He really couldn't associate this woman with Princess An. The subject of much elaboration.
He doesn't like women who are too active, because he has seen too many women who are close to means for fame and fortune, and he values more the inner side.
If Concubine An is a talented woman, then the woman who has no image at this moment, sitting on a chair like a puddle of mud, is a pale clam pearl.
There is simply no comparison possible.
"The Empress asked me to bring you a letter, take it and have a look." Feng Xihe took out the letter from his long sleeve, and the personal guard beside him held it and handed it to Ye Shengsi.
After receiving the letter, Ye Shengsi was a little overwhelmed with excitement. Regardless of whether the Yi Kingdom is willing to send troops to help the Dazhida Kingdom, this letter can at least prove that the Empress did not completely block the road. He said gratefully: "Saints thank you Your Majesty! Please trouble the prince!"
Feng Xihe took a sip from the teacup by the table, watched as Ye Shengsi couldn't wait to open the letter, read it bit by bit, his excited face became heavy with the passage of words, until it solidified.
"Heh!" He chuckled boringly, mocking this person for dreaming of wishful thinking in this turbulent and turbulent era, people must be self-aware.
If it weren't for Princess An's face, Feng Xihe believed that the Queen Mother would not let these two guys stay here. It is ridiculous that a small sesame seed country actually wants to swallow the elephant's daydream .
After reading the last word, Ye Shengsi's hand holding the letter trembled slightly. There was no word in the letter about sending troops to rescue the Dazhida Kingdom. people.
That person is Bin Yuan, the deposed prince of Fusang Kingdom that their country wants to attack.He has also heard about this man. He was usurped by his fifth younger brother, and even his biological father was killed. In order to save his life, he abandoned his royal status and voluntarily went into business. He heard about the toilet paper that is now sold very popular in the mainland. It was invented by the prince.
Everyone knows this.
Not long ago, he also saw the arrest warrant, and looking at the content of the letter, maybe he could really talk to that person.
"How are you thinking?" Feng Xihe yawned and asked impatiently.
"If I'm free some other day, I'll visit in person." Ye Shengsi looked at the letter in difficulty, and asked again apologetically, "But I don't know where Binyuan lives?"
"It's not difficult. He's in Phoenix City. I heard that Fenghua Xueyue's shop is run by him. I think it shouldn't be difficult for you to visit in person." He doesn't know if it's difficult or not, but he still remembers that shop. Although gentlemen love beauty, although they don't love to put on some rouge and powder like women, but good-looking clothes will always be sought after by nobles.
Half of the clothes he wears now come from his own tailor-made textile factory, and the other half come from Feng Hua Xue Yue's products. He can't argue whether it is good or bad, but the clothes sold in that man's shop are more fitting and convenient. There are also some places where hidden weapons can be hidden, which is quite to his liking.
"Thank you, my lord, for reminding me!" Ye Shengsi thanked.
Ye Jiu'er, who had been unable to speak at the side, pouted angrily, and grabbed Ye Shengsi's sleeve in a place where no one else could see. Seeing her brother ignoring her, she turned her head away angrily.
After Feng Xihe left, seeing that there were no servants around, Ye Shengsi angrily taught the younger sister: "Jiu'er, what did I tell you? This is not Dazhida, don't be so willful! If you offend that nobleman, We may not be able to get out of this land!" Looking at the little girl who didn't listen to the persuasion, he was particularly troubled.
It's all the fault of the father and mother for getting used to the younger sister and always letting her come here according to her temper. If this kind of temper is not kept intact, it will cause trouble one day.
"I don't think that person is very angry! Seventh brother, you are always mediocre..." Ye Jiu'er didn't think so at all. She saw the prince smiling at her just now, and she felt that the prince was not at all. I hate myself, maybe I am fascinated by my own beauty.
Thinking of this, she smiled a little shyly, the shy look of a young girl Hanchun made Ye Shengsi couldn't bear to look directly at him and was helpless.
Binyuan checked the cashier in the warehouse, saw that it was getting late, and was about to call it a day, and sneezed three times in a row, "Don't catch a cold..." He murmured to himself a little scared, anyway, for taking medicine Something, already had fear.
After closing the account book, Bin Yuan stretched her waist. Liang Yuci, who was recording the account book on the other side of the warehouse, had just finished work. He extinguished a row of candles in the tent, and Bin Yuan slammed into the pillars of the gate in a black light.
"Hey, hello!" Bin Yuan rubbed her forehead that was hurt by the impact, and complained, "Yu Ci, why did you blow out the candle on my side, I can't see the way!"
Liang Yuci, who was walking ahead, rubbed his head foolishly, and hurriedly carried a lantern to illuminate Binyuan: "I forgot, my Highness, don't blame me."
"You~" Bin Yuan smiled and shook her head, this guy is sometimes too busy and too absorbed, always forgetting him.
After coming out of the warehouse, looking up, the starry sky all over the sky converges into a dotted fluorescent river, everything is quiet, and the noisy birds in the daytime are quiet.
Binyuan looked at it for a while, then walked forward together with Liang Yuci.
In the past few days, the erythema on his body has disappeared a lot, and the erythema on his face is gone. He wears tighter clothes, and he looks as if he is not sick.His recovery does not mean that the plague in Phoenix City has disappeared. On the contrary, many nobles in the city have contracted the disease. Up to now, the imperial doctors have been helpless with this disease and put on an attitude of letting fate.
Binyuan thought about it. He didn't know if some of the anti-plague knowledge he knew in modern times was useful. He walked halfway and asked the staff next to him: "Tell me, what is the source of this plague?"
"Your Highness can't even figure it out, and of course it's hard for us to guess." Liang Yuci followed Binyuan closely with a lantern in his hand. He could only answer His Highness's question helplessly, shaking his shoulders.
Plague is inevitable in times of war and chaos. It is said that hundreds of years ago, a country could not resist this disease, which caused the entire country to cease to exist. It will still be a myth to this day.
"Leave these matters to the imperial court." Liang Yuci frowned. He was also very afraid of the plague that would come and go without a trace. It’s hard to guess if it’s not true? This country is densely populated, so what if some caravan passed through the country of the undead and brought this damn disease?”
"The Kingdom of the Undead? What is this?" Bin Yuan stopped abruptly, turned her head and asked Liang Yuci.
"Your Highness, you don't even know this, do you?" Liang Yuci opened his mouth slightly with a shocked expression.
Binyuan frowned, and for a moment, she answered uncertainly: "Could it be that the northern country that no one has set foot on so far?"
He still vaguely remembers the untrodden country introduced in the novel, where ten months of the year are buried by heavy snow, and only two months can see the enviable spring, it is an extremely harsh and unlivable country tough place.
☆、Particle failure
"Exactly." Liang Yuci nodded: "Historical records record that an unprecedented plague occurred in that country 200 years ago. When we realized that the matter was too serious, the common people were almost dead."
"What then?"
"Later, I don't know what happened later. This is only recorded in the history books, but there are many versions circulated among the people. Some people said that the emperor of the Northern Kingdom moved out of the Northern Kingdom with his descendants. Where did he go? No one will know."
The novel was not summarized in detail at the beginning, so Binyuan is still in a state of being half-confessed and can't figure it out.
According to the development process of the novel, after the protagonist Kulada Baman united with the Dazhida army to annihilate the Fusang Kingdom, he chased the emperor Binshang who escaped from the palace all the way to the border of the Northern Kingdom. After he died, he never set foot in that cursed place again.
But Binyuan knew that Binshang in the novel should not have died, because the one who escaped with him was Wu Si, the general of Zhenguo who had been escorting him all the time.
You can say that he is very old-fashioned, but he is loyal to Binshang, who became the emperor. Even after the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, and the imperial city was attacked by the enemy, Binshang was the first to protect him. He escaped from the country of subjugation and plunged headlong into the snow country where no one dared to set foot.
Back in the bedroom, Mo Ye brought hot water in a short while, and after tidying up the change of clothes, he closed the door and waited outside.Binyuan took off her clothes and took a bath, checked the erythema on her body that was disappearing day by day, and felt much happier.
As a result, it was only halfway through the shower when there was a yelling sound from outside the house.
"Your Highness! I need to see Your Highness urgently! There are two people who claim to be the envoys of Dazhi Da Kingdom, please see Your Highness!"
Mo Ye intercepted the maid, stood outside the door and reprimanded the reckless maid: "Your Highness is taking a bath, it's inconvenient now, just let those two wait in the front hall."
The maid who notified her blushed, nodded in agreement, and hurried back.
Binyuan put on her clothes and opened the door, her long wet hair was still dripping on her shoulders, "What's the matter?"
Mo Ye saw His Highness like this, and the mother's mentality burst out again: "Your Highness, you must not go like this. What if you are sick. This subordinate will wipe your hair first, and there will be no delay."
Binyuan looked at her long wet hair and thought it was the same, so she went back to the room and sat on a chair, letting Mo Yezai brush his hair carefully.
"What did the maid just say?" He was taking a bath at the time, so he didn't have time to hear it clearly.
Mo Ye frowned, "There are two envoys from the Dazhida Kingdom asking for an audience..." It may not be a good thing to ask for an audience at such a critical moment, because I am afraid that the envoys are here for the war between the two countries.
"From Dazhi Daguo?" Bin Yuan also frowned, not knowing whether she came here for the reward on the arrest warrant or for other things.
Few people know that he lives here. Ordinary people don't know that the wanted criminal lives in the Phoenix City of Yi Country. The people who are more informed are those with high positions, such as: relatives of the royal family, high-ranking officials, rich and powerful, and businessmen. Collaborators on the field.
After drinking the third cup of tea, the person he wanted to meet still didn't come, Ye Jiu threw the teacup out angrily, and the maid at the side didn't know her, so she obediently cleaned up the broken teacup and left the front hall .
"Seventh brother! I think this person is probably trying to show us off. You managed to spare some time to meet him, but he still hides!"
Ye Shengsi frowned, and said casually: "Be careful that the wall has ears, little girl..."
Ye Jiu'er didn't agree with that at all, thinking that she is also a dignified princess of a country, and the other party is just a person of business status, so what face does she have to put on airs in front of their royal relatives.
"I think he is a lowly pariah!" Ye Jiu'er uttered a deafening sarcasm, afraid that the servant hiding in the dark would not hear him.
"Enough!" Ye Shengsi reprimanded the younger sister: "He used to be a crown prince anyway, younger sister, you must not say that, if you fall into the tongue of others, you will not only lose your face, but also lose your knowledge." The face of the royal family of Daguo!"
Seeing that Ye Shengsi was slightly angry, Ye Jiu'er, who didn't dare to add fuel to the fire, held his breath in his stomach, and vented his anger at the teapot next to him.
In fact, when she just finished saying that sentence, Bin Yuan outside the door just heard that sentence directed at him. Mo Ye's face was as black as coal, and he wanted to go in and teach the woman who was open-minded, but Bin Yuan blocked.
The two stood at the door for a while, before Binyuan opened the door and walked in: "You two visit late at night, please forgive me for being negligent. After all, it's so late, it took a while to crawl out of the bed."
"Don't dare!" Ye Shengsi did not expect to meet such a handsome man. He always thought that the person who would willingly give up his royal status would be the kind of drug addict with evil eyebrows and mouse eyes, but the man he saw completely overthrew him before. The speculation even shocked him.
"Your mansion has not neglected for a moment, and the tea in the mansion is also very good. My little sister and I have lost manners when we visited late at night. It is us who should apologize." Ye Shengsi said, stopped with his eyes and asked Angry little girl.
Binyuan took his seat at the main seat, and Mo Ye stood behind him with a sword in his hand, looking at the woman who spoke with cold eyes, it was this woman who just spoke out loud in the room, and now she saw His Highness herself, she was silently closed mouth.
He didn't need this kind of woman, and even hated her, so he just glanced at her, and then looked away as if he was disgusted.
"Under Binyuan, I run a small business. May I ask your Excellency?"
"Dazhida Seventh Prince Ye Shengsi."
Binyuan pretended to be surprised, and put on a lot of face for the other party: "So it's His Royal Highness, how offensive you were just now!"
"Knowing that I have offended you, why don't you kneel down and apologize!" Ye Jiu'er muttered while holding a teacup.
Her voice was neither loud nor low, but it happened that everyone present could hear her clearly.
Bin Yuan's face froze with a smile, and quickly covered it up, of course he wouldn't care about a woman, but it all depends on the character of Ye Shengsi.
"My little girl is always reckless, Mr. Bin doesn't have to take her words to heart." Ye Shengsi sweated for himself, his teeth itching with regret, he knew this little girl was always going out to make trouble, It's better to throw her in the palace and accompany her father and mother later.
Mo Ye held the sword tightly, if His Highness hadn't warned him to be patient in everything and not to be too fussy, he would have liked to go forward to get to know the woman.
This embarrassment passed quickly, and we got back on track after chatting about the problem.
"I hope I will go to Dazhida as a guest..." Binyuan looked at Ye Shengsi who looked expectantly. Of course, the decision to go or not is up to her, but people cannot be offended.
He smiled, held the teacup to brew for a while, and then replied: "I think His Royal Highness also knows that I must not be wanted as a wanted person. Of course, I am still very willing to make friends with His Royal Highness."
That is nothing to talk about.
When Ye Shengsi came, he knew that it might not be that simple. If Binyuan was the kind of person who only cares about money, it would be much easier to handle. He is not short of money, so if he uses it a little bit, he can get some information .But the bad thing is that Bin Yuan is not that kind of person. He can tell from the verbal chat that although this person doesn't have much patriotism, he doesn't hate Bin Yuan.
"It's an honor to be friends with such a free, easy and capable person like Mr. Bin." Ye Shengsi retracted his eyes, and his tone was more polite.
After seeing off the two envoys, Binyuan pretended to be puzzled and went back to the bedroom, where she saw her elder brother sitting on her bed resting.
When Bin Xu heard the door opening and familiar footsteps, he knew it was Bin Yuan: "How is the situation?"
Binyuan took off her shoes and lay down on the bed, leaning on her eldest brother's legs as a pillow, said sullenly: "I don't know yet, but it seems that the Seventh Prince is not a treacherous person, but I just don't know what his real purpose is. "
Feeling the third brother's coquettish tone in his arms, the atmosphere seemed to be back in those days, Binxu stretched out his hand to comb a few strands of hair scattered on Binyuan's face, and comforted him: "Just observe for a while. If the situation is really Not good, just leave here and go to Nanban."
Bin Yuan nodded, and knew that this was the second book, and they certainly didn't want to leave in such a hurry unless it was absolutely necessary, because it would not only lose a lot of money, but also be a waste of manpower.
"Everything is up to my brother."
At the beginning of June, Phoenix City became the place where swallows dominated the world. The plague was brought under control, and the price of herbal medicines gradually increased so that ordinary people couldn't afford them.
At the same time, Bayiman and Ye Jiu arrived at the border city of Nanman Kingdom, Xizhi City, one month earlier.
When the team of dozens of people arrived, the hot weather in June was like fire, and the city encountered an unspeakable drought, and almost no grain was harvested. It happened that the king's capital came to pay taxes, and the city lord Yaguin couldn't produce enough. For food, the officials who were taxed gave a severe lesson and were deprived of their official positions.
Ye Jiu placed the team in the inn, and led Bayiman to inquire along the crowded streets, and found the Yagu family who lived here at the entrance of a narrow alley.
Shalai went out to the back of the yard to hold firewood, and happened to run into Ye Jiu and Bayiman who came with gifts. They hadn't seen each other for more than a year. Of course, she couldn't tell, but Ye Jiu spoke in advance: "Excuse me, is this Yaman?" Is it Gu's residence?"
"Who are you?" Sha Lai shook the firewood that was about to fall away in his arms, moved away from Ye Jiu's face, stared at the young man beside him who looked very similar to his own clansman, his eyes suddenly widened, and exclaimed : "Barman!"
"Is it Barman?" Shalai threw the things on the ground, and excitedly came to the side of the boy Bayiman. He couldn't believe that the boy came back alive. Looking at the healthy body of the other party, the strong physique, the eyes The teardrops in Li fell off the line: "I always thought... thought that you would never come back in this life..."
"Ma'am, don't cry. We are going to the capital at the order of Lord Lang, and we passed through the city these few days." Bayiman hurriedly supported Sha Lai. For this wrinkled woman, he put her on his mother's shoulders. In the position, respect and love: "Look, ma'am, these are all brought here specially by the Lord Lang, to honor your old man."
Shalai wiped away tears with a smile, quickly invited the two into the yard, threw the firewood into the yard, put his hands on his hips, went to the kitchen and caught Yagu: "Look at you hiding in the kitchen all day What does it look like in here, the guests don’t even know when they come!”
The rough man who was pulled out by the ear was confused, his face was distorted with pain, and he was about to complain, when he turned his head and saw two more people appeared in his yard.
"You are the person next to Mr. Bin, right? The one next to you is Baman!" Yagu exclaimed for a while, came to the boy's side, patted the boy's tough shoulders, and smiled honestly: "You boy, you will not grow up anymore!" Less! Come on, come on, why are you carrying so many things in your hand!"
"These are gifts from the Lord Lang." Baiman handed the things to Shalai, and sat down on the wooden stool in the yard.
Although things have changed since he came back this time, and the city lord who was kind to him is no longer the lord of the city, his respect for his benefactor has not diminished in the slightest. He knelt down beside Yagu and slammed a Ring your head.
Yagu's face froze, he stepped forward, angrily lifted the boy up: "What are you doing?"
Baiman thanked him solemnly: "Thank you for your kindness. If you hadn't bought me from my employer, I would still be a despised slave now. It is still unknown whether I can live to this day. ..."
He will never forget this kindness.
"You are my citizen, how can I just watch you being enslaved by that greedy landowner!" Yagu pulled Baiman up and sat him down on the stool. Sweeping said with relief: "My choice is indeed right. I have grown a lot. Mr. Bin has not let me down!"
Ye Jiu rubbed the tip of his nose with a smear on his face: "That's right, our Highness always keeps what we say."
Bayiman smiled, remembering that when he came here, the city was even more bleak than last year, and he was sincerely puzzled: "My lord, isn't the seed that the Lord gave to your lord last year not good?" Logically speaking, it was specially purchased from the Grub Country The seeds have excellent drought resistance, even if there is a strong wind and sand, they will not be blown down. Such tenacious seeds should be easy to plant.
However, on the way he came, the land outside the city was dry and there was no sign of sowing, and the wells along the way did not have a drop of water. The drinking water for the people in the city was very scarce, which showed that the situation was getting worse.
Yagu was silent when he heard the words.
The three of them went back to the house. Shalai killed an old hen and cooked a sumptuous dinner, which was the only thing they could afford to entertain the guests.
At the dinner table, the heavy atmosphere oppressed everyone.After everyone had finished their meal, Shale left with the dishes, leaving these elders to talk about things.
"The tax in the royal capital is getting higher and higher..." In the end, Yagu touched the edge of the table, looked at the darkened wood color, and said sadly.
Ye Jiu has lived in Fusang Country since he was a child, which is rich in water and soil and free from natural disasters. What he saw and witnessed along the way let him know about this city, this country and its difficulties.
"Is that batch of seeds not good?" Ye Jiu frowned and asked, after asking the reason clearly, he planned to write a letter to His Highness tonight.
Yagu pursed his lips and lowered his head. The two of them could only see the top of his dry head and the messy hair. A suppressed voice came out of his mouth: "After you leave... the seed was originally It was planned to be planted in February, but the day after you left, the taxpayer from the royal capital arrived at Yizhi City and took everything away..."
"Damn it!" Baiman punched the table hard, and the table creaked.
Ye Jiu could only clenched his fists angrily, but there was no solution. They were on their way this time, and they brought very little cargo. All the important goods were delivered on a different route from the one they took. This was also for consideration. The road developed for the safety of items.
The reason why they passed by the city was mainly because His Highness entrusted them to visit Yagu. After all, Yagu still had some friendship with His Highness.
In the evening, Binyuan finished her busy day in the counting room and was just about to go back to sleep when a resonant eagle cry pierced the sky. On Chuyou's arm tied with a thick cloth strip.
Letters are tied to the eagle's legs, and only Fusang people like to use eagles instead of pigeons to deliver letters.
Chu You took the letter down, fed the eagle a few pieces of meat, stroked its hair, put it on the scaffold, and handed the letter to Binyuan who was sitting quietly waiting.
The letter was sent from the city of Nanman Kingdom, and there were only two letter eagles trained by Ye Jiu to follow the team, and the other eagles were all here.
Eagles send messages very quickly, and there are no enemies in the sky, which is much more convenient and safer than pigeons.
Opening the letter, Bin Yuan carefully read it, and finally frowned, thinking for a moment, "Mo Ye, bring the pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
"Yes." Mo Ye nodded and exited the bedroom, and went to the study to get things.
Liang Yuci didn't know which servant got the news from. Hearing that there was a letter, he hurried to Binyuan's bedroom. There was a sound coming from outside the door, and when we got to the door, we almost had to shout.
"Your Highness, Your Highness! Where's the letter?" Liang Yuci hurried into the room, not forgetting to close the door, and sat down on the cushion beside Binyuan, and saw the letter that His Highness held in his hand was crumpled. A mess, it can be seen that the content of the letter must be bad.
He timidly asked: "Is the news not very good?"
Binyuan eased her frowning brows, shook her head and nodded again, smiled wryly and could not answer: "It's not a big deal. Ye Jiuxin said that Yagu was dismissed from his official position because he couldn't pay the taxes needed by the royal city, and hey Zhicheng has no harvest..."
"How is this possible?" Liang Yuci exclaimed, not believing it at all.
He remembered that they had given enough seeds when they left, and they should have grown well this month, so how could there be no harvest.
"Show me." Liang Yuci took the letter from Binyuan's hand, spread it flat on the table, and read it carefully word by word, for fear of missing something important.
When Mo Ye came back with a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, he saw a person who wanted to move half of his body on the table, staring at a piece of paper, wishing to stare at it out of the hole.
After reading the letter, Liang Yuci shouted angrily: "Those heartless bastards even took away the seeds! It's so annoying!"
"Don't be angry, don't be angry." Binyuan comforted, dumbfounded: "In the past few days, I will send people to transport some grain and seeds. Although it is not a long-term solution, it can also solve the urgent need."
His idea is good, but distant water can't save near fire, after all, it's just a way to drink plums to quench thirst, and it has no effect.
Mo Ye arranged the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and objected with a calm face: "Your Highness, we don't have a lot of silver in the treasury, and most of the property has been taken away by His Majesty, so I'm afraid it won't help much."
Hearing this, Liang Yuci felt bad: "I said why are you so heartless? Your Highness said it just now, it's just to relieve the urgent need, and it doesn't want to be like this all the time."
"Shut up!" Mo Ye rolled his eyes at Liang Yuci, pushed the guy away from His Highness's side, and pushed him aside: "I think you're in a hurry, go get busy, Your Highness is here I'll take care of it."
"You!" Liang Yuci flicked his sleeves angrily, but refused to leave, "I am His Highness's lucky boy, you have no right to drive me away, do you Your Highness?"
Seeing this guy smiling brightly at her, Bin Yuan could only smile embarrassingly rubbing her forehead, thinking that these two people are really a pair of treasures.
In the early morning of the second day, a batch of herbal medicines transported from Fusang Kingdom was robbed. When Binyuan arrived on horseback, the door of the temporarily rented shop was crowded with bosses from different pharmacies. Crowded.
Mo Ye got off his horse and asked Bin Yuan to wait on the spot, "Your Highness, I'll go and have a look." After speaking, he headed towards the crowded crowd.
Bin Yuan frowned worriedly. He was not only afraid that the herbs would be sold out, but also worried about the sky-high price. Although his illness was cured, some ordinary people in the caravan were also infected with the plague and were quarantined. Now, everyone is waiting for the herbal medicine to save their lives. If the merchants selling herbal medicine are making black-hearted money at this time, I am afraid they will have nothing to do.
The imperial court has the imperial court's way of collecting medicines, and there is no need to crowd with the common people at all, which also suffers from the common people.
After a while, Mo Ye came out of the crowd with a sullen expression, "Your Highness, the price of this batch of herbs is several times higher than last month!" That is not to die of illness.
"At this juncture, what on earth is Binshang thinking?!" Binyuan tightened her grip on the horse rope, staring at the landowners who were grabbing herbs.
Mo Ye knew what His Highness was worried about, so he felt even more distressed: "Your Highness!" He held His Highness's shoulders tightly and shouted in a suppressed voice.
"Fusang Kingdom is coming to an end! This is not something you and I can stop, Your Highness! We worked hard to suppress the price of medicinal herbs, but Binshang raised the price of medicines several times at this juncture! Binshang now It’s not just nobles who offend, it’s a country! A country!”
Binyuan pushed Mo Ye's hand away, took a deep look at the place where the herbal medicine was sold, and walked back: "I know..." He has always known, he knows the plot, so he knows that country even if he No matter how much you stay, you will inevitably perish in the end.
Taking a deep breath, I looked up at the sky, the blue sky, the white clouds, untouchable, seemingly far away but very close.
In the imperial palace of the Yi Kingdom, all the civil and military officials played one after another, all complaining about the inhumane and unreasonable practices of the Fusang Kingdom in recent days.
A minister came up, staring at him, and said angrily: "People are doing it, but the sky is watching! Fusang Kingdom's move has chilled the hearts of the world and has been cast aside by the world. When our country is plagued by illness, as a Neighboring countries not only did not extend a helping hand, but also forced the people of our country to have no money to buy medicines with sky-high prices of medicines, and they died of illness and death, which is unacceptable!"
After the minister finished speaking, he bowed his head and stood in the line. After the civil servant finished speaking, a leader came from the military officer's side.
"Your Majesty! This is a good time!" Kang Yu, wearing silver armor, knelt down on one knee and begged sincerely: "Please allow the general to attack the Fusang Kingdom! The general will definitely live up to your majesty." expect!"
The court hall was remarkably quiet, and the aged empress opened her eyes even wider. Her heart had never been surging at this moment, as if she had returned to the turbulent time when she was young, the most glorious time.
No, although she is old, this country is not old, but still strong!
There are no real good people and bad people in this world, only cowardly countries are bullied by the strong, the empress narrowed her eyes, "You are worthy of being the general of our country!"
The general among the crowd smiled, with anger in his eyes, thirsting for blood and worshiping war, after decades of Cathay Pacific Ping An, the treasured sword in his waist can finally be unsheathed.
"A few days ago, I received a letter of covenant from the capital of the Nanman king, King Tagli. King Tagli said that he would help our country to take down Fusang!" The queen's vigorous and powerful voice penetrated the court, inspiring people's hearts.
"Yiguo will surely win!" General Kang Kai took advantage of the surging blood in the court hall and shouted, all kinds of echoes resounded through the air.
"The country will surely win! Your Majesty is wise!"
"The country will surely win! Your Majesty is wise!"
"The country will surely win! Your Majesty is wise!"
Back in the increasingly desolate yard, in the past you would always see wolf cubs running around in the yard, but now the only thing that is quiet in the yard is the chirping of birds.
Chu You and Du An were sent by him to deliver goods a long distance, and they will probably come back in the spring of next year. If they haven't changed places by then, it will be about that time.
The world is always changing, and there is no place to settle down.
Binyuan walked silently, and said to the people behind her: "I want to be alone, go down." Ignoring Mo Ye, she walked towards the bamboo forest behind the yard alone, and then ran away Get up, run and cry.
Everyone says that men don't flick their tears lightly, but Binyuan is the kind of person who can't afford to let go. He can't forget the old emperor who is old but in bad health. The father of this body gave him paternal love. , the father whose head was beheaded by Bin Shang.
The moon is very big, it is estimated to be almost fifteen, and the moon hanging in the clouds is also much colder.
Binyuan was leaning on the gazebo alone, looking at the shimmering moonlight in the water, smelling the fragrance of lotus leaves, until the sound of "Xiaoyuan" interrupted the dazed person, and he looked back, on the road leading to the gazebo. On the small stone road, I saw the eldest brother who walked this way regardless of his feeling.
"Brother, why are you here?" Binyuan quickly wiped away her tears with her sleeves, jumped off the pavilion with her feet up, and ran over to support Binxu: "This bamboo forest is full of strange rocks, if you want to come here, brother, at least call me A servant."
Binyuan breathed a sigh of relief when someone helped her to sit on the stool in the gazebo. After pouring a cup of hot tea for her eldest brother, she leaned against the pillar of the gazebo and remained silent again.
Taking a sip of the fragrant tea, although Bin Xu couldn't see it, he could feel the sadness in the air: "I heard from Mo Ye that the price of medicinal herbs has increased again recently, and the medicinal herbs you bought at a high price are sold at a low price I'm afraid it won't last long. You can smell it, there is a lot of sex in the air, and the war is not far away."
