Chapter 2255: The Conspiracy of the Rongcheng Family!
On this day, when Shangguanya went to the casino to play, he met Su Ronghua again.
Su Ronghua had a very good impression of Shangguanya, so he knew something about Shangguanya. Seeing that Shangguanya seemed unhappy, she couldn't help but ask about it.
Shangguan Ya didn't hide anything, and simply said what she had been misunderstood.
After Su Ronghua heard this, he immediately became nervous. He was really worried that Pei Wenxuan would take advantage of his favorite wife.
In desperation, Su Ronghua thought of a way, that is, to take his cousin to stay at Pei's house for a few days, so that he could divert the attention of Pei's mother.
In fact, Su Ronghua's purpose of doing this is very obvious, which is to replace his lover with his sister Su Rongyue!
The children of the Su family were named according to the genealogical line up to the word "Rong", and this generation was named using a word from a poem, "The snow is lingering in the middle of the night, and the moonlight is just beginning in the Qing family."
Among them, Su Ronghua and Su Rongqing are from the same mother, and Su Rongyue is the daughter of Su Ronghua's uncle's family.
This kid Su Ronghua deliberately caused mischief. He first went to his third uncle's house and praised Pei Wenxuan for everything in the sky and on the earth, making Su Rongyue, a young girl who had just grown hair extensions, very curious about Pei Wenxuan, and then he wanted to take the opportunity to talk to Pei Wenxuan.
It's just that the third uncle of the Su family thought that since Pei Wenxuan was so good, he might as well let Su Ronghua bring Pei Wenxuan home so that he could have a good look with his own eyes.
As a result, Su Ronghua said that Pei Wenxuan had already worshiped Jiulu Mountain and was very busy with her studies and had no time to think about life-long events.
When he said this, he also deliberately said,
"Besides, Pei Wenxuan may not necessarily like my little sister. It's not good to let him come like this. I think it's better to let Rong Yue play with me. Occasionally, I can go to Pei Wenxuan's house to get to know Pei Wenxuan's mother. I can go and see more often. , maybe the marriage will be done.
The third uncle of the Su family was originally unwilling, but Su Ronghua said that Pei Wenxuan was particularly filial. He had observed filial piety for three years because of his father. After the filial piety was over, he took his mother out of the Pei family after making money. Even his father made money back then. She didn't even care that her family property was occupied by her second wife.
The third uncle of the Su family felt that such an open-minded person as Pei Wenxuan was indeed suitable to be his son-in-law, so he agreed with Su Ronghua and Su Rongyue to go out together.
It's just that Su Ronghua didn't go anywhere after leaving the Su family, and went directly to Pei Wenxuan's house.
After arriving at Pei's house, Su Rongyue saw that her brother was staring at the lady from the Shangguan family, and she knew that she had been deceived. I was afraid that she was just here to act as a shield.
However, after Su Rongyue saw Pei Wenxuan, she was still attracted by Pei Wenxuan's face. She felt confused for a moment, but she really became a guest happily.
Pei Wenxuan couldn't understand what Su Ronghua was thinking. He had no plans to get married for the time being. After all, if he really wanted to get married and had to choose a noble family, why didn't he choose Shangguan Ya? That’s still my senior sister!
However, when Pei Wenxuan thought of the man who stood between him and the princess in that dream, he rolled his eyes and asked Su Ronghua, "Don't you, the Su family, have the same king and only send one relative to serve as an official? Now that you have entered the palace to be Prince Su's teacher, why did your brother suddenly become the Minister of Justice? Are you planning to make a bet? "
Su Ronghua thought that Pei Wenxuan wanted to ask who was in charge in his family, so that he could choose whether to consider his sister in the exam, so he smiled and said, "I prefer freedom and purity. It happened that my brother wanted to cause trouble, so the status of the head of the family was given to me. He can do it too.”
He wanted to express the harmony in his family and respect between brothers and sisters, but after hearing this, Pei Wenxuan felt a huge wave of emotion in his heart.
You know, Pei Wenxuan had investigated this love rival in his previous life, and knew that Su Rongqing should not have left the army at this time, but now so much has changed, and it was all Su Rongqing's initiative!
One or two things are nothing. The more Pei Wenxuan listened to Su Ronghua and Su Rongyue talking about Su Rongqing, the more and more he had an idea in his mind. Could it be that that kid was also reborn?
Thinking of this possibility, Pei Wenxuan thought it would be better to give it a try, so he deliberately talked to Su Rongyue a few more words, which made Su Ronghua feel that the time was ripe and wanted to take Pei Wenxuan to his home as a guest.
…
Wang Yue and Li Rong sent Qin Zhenzhen and Li Chuan away. Since they had nothing else to do, Li Rong was ready to promote the hot and sour potato noodles.
Firstly, these two things are more delicious, and secondly, potatoes and sweet potatoes are grown on a large scale here in Chengdu, and the yield of these two things is too high, so many of them cannot be eaten.
Although these things are easy to store, it is not easy to keep them all the time. Therefore, Li Rong plans to buy some of these excess potatoes and sweet potatoes, so that the people in Chengdu can earn more and promote the two kinds of food.
It's just that although the promotion went very smoothly, the people were not very good at making it, and Li Rong bought too much, and she and his men couldn't finish it.
Therefore, Li Rong planned to make potato powder and hot and sour noodles that could be stored and sold far away.
This was easy for Wang Yue. He helped make some equipment and helped Li Rong start making potato powder, hot and sour rice noodles and vermicelli.
The common people originally thought about whether they had enough food to eat. After eating, they worried about having no place to put the extra sweet potatoes and sweet potatoes. Now the princess directly purchases potatoes and sweet potatoes in large quantities and promotes the two kinds of food. All of a sudden, the people in Chengdu have them. I made some money and my life became better.
The way the people of Rongcheng appreciated Li Rong's kindness to them was very ancient, but it was very useful to Li Rong. They built a shrine for Li Rong in their homes.
The academy founded by Wang Yue certainly wanted to learn from the Master, so no matter which path he took, he would be successful in cultivation.
Qin Lin, Qin Zhenzhen, and Shangguan Ya had already shown their strength. Li Rong originally thought that she might be getting further and further away from them. What she didn't expect was that she had recently sensed that some power had entered her body, and she could even sense the blessings of the people through that power.
Li Rong thought of the way of faith in the way of cultivation that Wang Yue had told her, and hurried to find Wang Yue to confirm whether she had really entered this path.
Wang Yue checked and found that Li Rong really had some power of faith, so he smiled and encouraged, "Your power of faith is still very weak now. When the people of the whole building build a shrine for you, you may become the patron saint of Daxia."
Li Rong was very surprised after hearing Wang Yue's confirmation, and she shouted that she wanted to go to Jiulu Mountain. She wanted to go to the mountain to read books because she had seen how to use the power of faith there.
She thought it was too early before, so she didn't read it carefully, so of course she couldn't wait.
Wang Yue is also a doting daughter-in-law. He immediately took Li Rong to Jiulu Mountain and asked her to choose the spells that can be used with the power of faith.
The power of the spell is actually proportional to the mana and proficiency of the person. Therefore, although Li Rong has a stronger power than the other people, she still has to practice slowly.
...
Not only Emperor Li Ming but also the major families have been paying attention to Rongcheng, so these people have also seen the changes in Rongcheng.
Especially the families in Rongcheng, they feel the most deeply.
The reason why the aristocratic families can be passed down for a long time is because the aristocratic families are powerful, and some ordinary families or people take the initiative to seek refuge in order to survive, so that they can be protected and not bullied.
Now that Rongcheng is under the control of Li Rong, the officials of the government are not doing evil at all, so the local people are of course living better and better, and there is no need for the protection of the aristocratic families.
Those people who originally depended on the aristocratic families saw that other people were living well, and of course they all left the local aristocratic families and no longer paid the due share of profits to the aristocratic families, which reduced the income of the aristocratic families in Rongcheng a lot.
At that time, Li Rong issued a decree that Rongcheng prohibited the sale of grain and wine to other places, so those aristocratic families who owned a lot of land could make a fortune by buying and selling grain, and even annex the land of those poor families.
But now grain cannot be sold to other places, and the local people are well fed and clothed, so the grain can only be wasted.
The noble families in various places are actually intermarried, just like the eight major families in Jinghua. The noble families in Rongcheng also have marriages. They know that if Li Rong stays in Rongcheng, they may have no way to survive, so they want to send Li Rong out of Rongcheng.
As long as Li Rong is not in Rongcheng, in the eyes of the noble families, grain trading and alcohol prohibition can only be empty words.
However, if they want to deal with Li Rong, they will definitely not be able to use force, because they also know that Li Rong’s male disciple can carry 50,000 soldiers and horses alone, and they don’t want to die.
And they know in their hearts that Li Rong wants the people of the world to not be hungry, so they came up with an open plot.
They sent people to publicize the benefits of sweet potatoes and potatoes everywhere, and let other places look forward to them starting to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes here.
The noble families in Rongcheng thought very simply. If Li Rong only targeted their city, they could do it with ease. However, if sweet potatoes and potatoes were developed to the entire city, so that all the people in the city could have enough food and clothing, and the land in the hands of the noble families in Daxia would be useless, officials from the noble families would naturally come to deal with Li Rong.
So, Li Rong, who was working hard to learn magic, suddenly received an imperial edict from Li Ming, asking her to be responsible for promoting sweet potatoes and potatoes nationwide.
Of course, Li Rong was willing to do so. She even put aside the practice of magic temporarily, cultivated all the potatoes she bought into seedlings, and gave them to the people in the counties and prefectures around Rongcheng for planting.
Li Rong's idea was very simple. If potatoes and sweet potatoes were planted around Rongcheng, the harvested potatoes and sweet potatoes could be quickly promoted to the whole country.
