Chapter 995
The guard leader frowned thickly, "Impossible, we didn't play hard, mostly defensive—"
"You train as guards to fight, can we farmers compare? It really hurts!"
An Cai stood there with his hands folded, silent, his drooping eyelids always gave Mr. Liu a very familiar feeling, and looking at the pretentious gestures of the people in Xiapo Village, the old man's face darkened.
Isn't that shameless?
Even the generals are not spared?
"Is it really hurt? Then my subordinates are wrong, what do you think?" Qin Xiao smiled with gentleness.
"We spent a whole morning with them, and now we're injured again, so I'm afraid we won't be able to do the work in the field. Seeing that it's going to be spring sowing, we can't delay the work in the field. Seeing how strong they are, Qin, General Qin Why don't we let them help us with the work? Since we are our own people, we don't need any compensation, and we will write it off when we are done with spring sowing!"
"Okay." Qin Xiao nodded in response.
Everyone in Xinghua Village dropped their jaws in shock. The admiration that arose when they first heard the name of the general vanished in an instant. How could the general be so easy to deceive?
The guards were stiff, and they could hardly believe such a clumsy lie. The general actually believed it, and they really wanted them to help with farm work? They are guards!
The people in Xiapo Village were also stunned for a long time, and then grinned with white teeth, "The general understands the righteousness, loves the people like a son, is amiable and respectable!"
"I have admired General Qin since I was a child, and he really deserves to be a hero with pride and righteousness!"
"Then let's not delay, let's go to work?" Picking up the agricultural tools on the ground and stuffing them into the hands of the guards, the descendant villager pointed to the field not far behind, smiling amiably.
"Old Qin—" The guard leader looked at Qin Xiao.
"Go."
"..."
While sweating profusely in the fields, the guard leaders didn't even understand why the general asked them to help these scoundrels farm.
On the way back to Liu's compound with the chessboard in his arms, Mr. Liu looked at Qin Xiao with inquisitive eyes, "How can you be so talkative? That's not right."
"What's wrong?" Qin Xiao said calmly.
"Our Axiu is so smart, he is very afraid when mentioning you. You, a general who is good at tactics, can be fooled by those shameless old people in Xiapo Village?"
"As a soldier, you should have strict discipline, and you can't shoot innocent people. They hurt the people, and compensation should be made."
Mr. Liu smacked and touched, but still felt that something was wrong.
Qin Xiao is not such an easy-going person.
These people who are in the officialdom, the twists and turns in their stomachs are twisted and twisted, and ordinary people can't understand them at all.
Entering the compound, two old women were washing their hands in front of the kitchen door.
"...Ai's family is the queen mother, how can she leave the palace at will? If it wasn't for Liang Douer this time, Ai's family would not have come out."
"You have already left the palace. If you leave the palace for a day, you leave for a month. What's the difference?" The two women seemed to be talking about returning to Beijing. Houhou has to leave. You might have to wait until when you want to meet me next time. When you go back to the palace, you have no one to accompany you. What’s the point of being locked up in the Hall of Mental Cultivation? Not at all. The courtyard is at ease."
"It's been said that Ai's family is the queen mother, you reckless woman doesn't understand." She can't be willful. Although she felt that what the reckless woman said actually made sense.
Leaving for a day is leaving, and leaving for a month is also leaving.
But whether it is a day or a month, there is a time limit.
When the time limit is up, she will return to that place after all.
Qin Xiao stepped into the door, "Reporting to the Queen Mother, there are some problems with the guards. We need to help the villagers finish the spring sowing before we can leave. The military discipline is as strong as iron, and we can't break our word. We may have to stay for a while longer."
Looking at Qin Xiao's pious face, Mr. Liu suddenly realized, what he said was wrong, it turned out to be here!
This old guy is simply pushing the boat with the current, in order to save some time!
Mrs. Liu at the door of the kitchen heard Qin Xiao's words and said happily, "Then save it until the spring planting is over! It's just in time to catch you and go to the field to help!"
After finishing speaking, he bumped the Empress Dowager's arm again, "How about it, it's done?"
Glancing at Qin Xiao, the Empress Dowager lowered her eyes and pursed her lips, "There is a reason for the incident, so just wait until the end of the spring sowing."
After a pause, he looked at the happy old woman, "I don't farm."
She is a majestic empress dowager, how decent is she to go to the fields to farm?
"Okay, you don't need to go to the field, when the time comes, you can sit on the ridge and direct!"
The empress dowager was satisfied, but she never expected that the majestic empress dowager was sitting on the ridge of the field, and she didn't have any dignity at all.
When the news from Cangzhou reached Xinghua Village, it happened to be about to sow in spring.
Knowing that there is a villain like Zhu Xian in Cangzhou, the county guard and the magistrate are still working together to escort him, making him lawless, and the Liu family sighs.
"It's a good thing that Ah Xiu and Nannie and the others ran into each other. Otherwise, with the county guard covering the sky with one hand in Cangzhou, the court will never know the suffering of the people for the rest of their lives. Unbelievable." The old man sighed.
"There is also that villain named Zhu Xian, he should be beheaded!" Filled with righteous indignation, the old woman asked, "Have you beheaded yet?"
Wei Hong nodded, "Before the master left Cangzhou, he urgently transferred an official from the neighboring county to take charge of the yamen's affairs temporarily. On the sixth day after the incident happened, Zhu Xian was beheaded for public display."
Wei Lan added, "I heard that on the day of the execution, almost all the people in Cangzhou City rushed to throw rotten cabbage and rotten eggs at Zhu Xian. The scene was very spectacular."
Since marrying Wei Hong, Wei Lan has followed in his wife's footsteps and formed a gossip duo.
"If it hadn't been discovered, Cangzhou would have become the Chaozhong Dynasty, right? Return to the crown prince of Cangzhou." Liu Zhiqiu curled his lips, disdainful of this title.
"The superiors stand too high, and sometimes it is difficult to see the filth under their feet," Qin Xiao said. "The news that the prince has cleaned up Cangzhou is a good thing for the moment, and it can temporarily restrain officials in other places. They don't know The destination of this trip, the prince and the princess, will only think that the two of them are traveling in low clothes, and they will become cautious in their actions during this period of time, and they will not dare to make mistakes easily, which is beneficial to the people and the region."
The words of the old general made everyone think so.
When the topic came up about their own daughters, the elders inevitably thought about those who were traveling.
"I don't know where Nannan and Axiu are now, and how long it will take to get to the northwest. There is also Qinglian, who is alone outside, ouch, thinking about it, the old lady feels uncomfortable." Old lady Liu beat her heart, pressing The moisture that is about to overflow the eye sockets.
Among the partners that Nannan and Ah Xiu met, Qinglian was the most bitter.
The small family was broken and the people were killed, and they were displaced. The uncle who is dependent on each other is not a good one, not to mention treating him as a tool for revenge, and planting such a sinister Gu on him.
Ching Lian should be suffering like Coptis chinensis in her heart.
