The Reborn Wife is Farming

Chapter 438 Inquiries

"Fourth son, you are finally back. There are people from the palace who want to see you." Qi Haoran and the others were stopped by the steward just as they got out of the carriage.

Qi Haoran and Mu Yangling looked at each other and said, "You and sister-in-law go back first, I'll go and have a look."

Mu Yangling nodded, watching him leave with some worry, Li Jinghua patted her hand and said, "It's okay, let's go back and wait for the news."

Mu Yangling supported Li Jinghua back to Zhaode Hall, Qi Haoran came back soon, and said: "The palace is sending a message, the three of us will go to the palace tomorrow."

"Why?" Mu Yangling was puzzled.

"Brother, please seal it for sister-in-law. The palace may want to see sister-in-law. The two of us are going as a foil."

Li Jinghua's eyes lit up, and she asked a little excitedly, "Your elder brother, please seal me?"

Qi Haoran grinned, "Yes, wife of the second grade, if the imperial seal comes down, no one in our family will be able to bully you in the future."

Li Jinghua pursed her lips and smiled, and said with bright eyes: "Fourth uncle seems to be saying that I will bully people after I get the imperial seal."

"Sister-in-law can bully if she wants to," Qi Haoran said with a big wave of his hand: "As long as you don't bully Ah Ling."

Li Jinghua couldn't help laughing, and looked at Mu Yangling playfully, but seeing that Mu Yangling was also grinning, with no shyness on his face, Li Jinghua could only shake his head and smile.

When Qi Haoran and Mu Yangling went back holding hands, they said, "Why don't I seal it up for you too? I'm a fourth-rank man, so you're a respectful person." People, please seal her up and she will still occupy a false elder status."

The more Qi Haoran talked, the more he felt that the imperial seal was a good thing, so after returning home, he lay down on the table and began to write the notebook, and decided to take it with him when he went to see the emperor tomorrow.

Mu Yangling propped his chin to watch him write classical Chinese, admiring him, "I read as many books as you do, why can't I write this tune?"

Qi Haoran proudly said: "You just read the book once, can you compare with me? But I still have to write strategies and do my homework."

After writing the booklet, the two talked happily for a while and then went to bed. Qi Haoran hugged Mu Yangling up and down, and regretfully said: "Your illness will get better soon."

Mu Yangling pinched him, "Don't think about anything. Do you think the emperor will target me tomorrow? What if I can't restrain my temper?"

"I've already thought about it for you. Just pretend to be gentle and smile with your head down. Isn't your sister-in-law here? Let her answer for you."

Mu Yangling thought about it, and fell asleep in peace, but things are often out of control. Who would know that the protagonist of this summoning is not Li Jinghua, but Mu Yangling?

In other words, it was Qi Xiuyuan who was far away in Jingzhao Mansion.

Through the news from the secret guard and a thorough analysis of the palace banquet, the emperor believed that Mu Yangling was a fool and bold.

Otherwise, how could he say those words at the palace banquet, but after leaving the palace, he was so frightened that he fell ill.

Don't doubt, when the doctor gave the pulse diagnosis, he said that Mu Yangling had an occasional cold and was frightened. It is too common to feel the wind and cold. Everyone subconsciously ignored it. Whether it was the emperor or the ministers, Mu Yangling's illness Returned to the fear of heart.

As a result, only the audience who were able to hear the rumors outside were misunderstood gorgeously.

Some people are usually very timid, but they can always burst out with strong fighting power for the persistence in their hearts, but once they keep it, the opponent will immediately fight back to their original shape.

The emperor was still not sure about the personalities of Mu Yangling and Li Jinghua, but Qi Haoran was sure. He looked carefree, but he spent a long time trying to get any questions from him, so he could only focus on the female relatives.

General Yuan and Qi Xiuyuan are both in the North, and they have a close relationship. They have more than 300,000 troops in total, and these 300,000 are elite soldiers who have seen blood, more than twice as powerful as the soldiers raised in the South.

It can be said that their 300,000 is their 600,000, how can the emperor rest assured? I can't sleep well.

The three separated after entering the palace. Mu Yangling and Li Jinghua went to the queen, while Qi Haoran was taken to see the emperor.

The queen was very gentle, she knelt down and was called out, and then the three of them sat and chatted together, the queen asked Li Jinghua about the Jingzhao Mansion in a sideways manner, Li Jinghua answered impeccably, only shook her head blankly when it came to military affairs, and then The house generally doesn't care about outside affairs, even if the queen wants to ask, she can't ask.

The queen felt a little helpless. It seemed that Li Jinghua was indeed taught by the family. Although she was young and had little experience, she was not much different from the daughters of the family who grew up in the capital.

The queen turned her eyes to Mu Yangling, her heart moved, and she asked with a smile: "I remember General Qi said that you rescued him in the mountains. How did you go to such a place?"

Mu Yangling looked up at Li Jinghua, and Li Jinghua smiled and said, "Ma'am, the fourth sibling's family used to be hunters, so she often followed her father into the mountains to hunt."

The queen smiled slightly, and asked again: "How long have you known General Qi?"

Li Jinghua observed the words and expressions, and also saw what the queen meant. She couldn't help but sighed slightly, and looked at Mu Yangling, her eyes rolled imperceptibly, and Mu Yangling knew that she had to deal with it.

These questions did not seem to involve confidentiality, so Mu Yangling answered with a smile.

In the end, the problem got deeper and deeper. Mu Yangling smiled heartlessly and told the queen that there are now six battalions in Xiying, with more than 100,000 people, and the food income is barely enough for food and clothing. The grain harvests in Jingzhao Mansion and Hanzhong Mansion are not bad, but Xingzhou Mansion has been suffering from drought. Those military households, not to mention paying military rations, can’t even support themselves. Brother Qi can’t leave them alone. Brother Haoran felt distressed for several days when the military rations were transferred from the government and the Jingzhao government."

Finally got some useful news, the queen ignored Li Jinghua who was getting nervous, and asked with a smile: "Isn't there not enough food, can you buy it with money? Isn't Xingzhou Mansion down to Tongchuan Mansion? It has always been a land of abundance, food The output is pretty high."

Mu Yangling curled his lips and said, "Now Tongchuan Mansion can't even compare with Jingzhao Mansion."

The queen was taken aback, and asked, "Why?"

"Why not? The rebellion in Tongchuan Mansion just ended a few years ago. Although the rain was good last year, so many refugees were not resettled and no one was farming. No matter how fertile the land is, what good is the rain?"

These queens really don't know, isn't this the government affairs of the previous dynasty? How could Mu Yangling know?

"Is this what General Qi told you?"

"Where should he say it? Everyone knows it," Mu Yangling said as a matter of course: "Refugees always move here and there. Xingzhou Prefecture also has refugees from Tongchuan Prefecture. We will know when they talk about it."

"Is it that simple?" the Queen murmured.

Mu Yangling asked curiously, "How complicated can that be?"

The queen smiled and said: "Tongchuan Mansion is not good, as long as you have money, there will always be grain merchants who will sell you grain, so you don't have to live so tight."

Mu Yangling shook his head and said, "They have no money, but they have a lot of jewelry."
