Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

In the next few days, Feng Jiu's wounds healed, but Ke Ren did not wake up. Ji Lingchou's white hair had a few strands coming out. Bai Ruozhu felt distressed but couldn't think of a way.

Could it be that her space hot spring can only heal superficial injuries and not help at all with damage to the heart? But Feng Jiu’s pulse condition looks okay?

Just when Bai Ruozhu and Gao Zhan were at their wits' end, something big happened in the DPRK.

News came from the capital that King Rui personally led the troops to go on an expedition, but the Yueqiu tribe retreated step by step, and now they have all retreated from Beiguan. The people in the capital applauded one after another, praising the new emperor for his wisdom and martial prowess in keeping the people in peace.

As a result, the common people have almost forgotten that the new emperor's ascension to the throne was not justified, and even strange phenomena occurred during the sacrifice to heaven.

Tang Yin smashed the memorial immediately after receiving the letter. He was angry for several days. Some of the important ministers in the court were also panicked and suggested that they should fight back to the capital early. Otherwise, it would be even more difficult to deal with it when King Rui won the hearts of the people.

Tang Yin doesn't know this truth, but now that the military pay, food and grass are insufficient, if this battle lasts longer, they may become a trapped beast. He only has one chance to counterattack, so he must not be careless.

In the imperial study, Prime Minister Si was talking to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, you have to stay calm now and don't mess up your position." Prime Minister Si did not agree with sending troops in a hurry.

Tang Yin sighed, "I know, I'm just afraid that this time it will disrupt the morale of the army."

Prime Minister Si also sighed, "Why don't the emperor agree to this first, and then start with the conscription? If the conscription is rigged, it can last for half a year. It is also a way to delay the war."

"Okay, just do as the prime minister said." Tang Yin couldn't think of any other way, so he could only do this for the time being.

As soon as his counterattack order was issued, the DPRK and the Central Government were excited, and conscription began immediately. A new round of conscription began in all parts of the northwest.

Bai Ruozhu quickly learned about Tang Yin's plan, and also knew that Tang Yin did not want to force the recruitment of troops, and the speed would be much slower, but this would also be beneficial and would not arouse public anger.

On the third day after the conscription order was issued, an old man dressed as a beggar entered Beiyu City and finally arrived outside the palace gate.

When he took out the token, he was quickly arranged to meet the emperor.

"Are you a subordinate of the Queen Mother? Did the Queen Mother ask you to come?" The emperor wrinkled his nose. He had no impression of this person, but he had the Queen Mother's token. But this person smelled too bad, didn't he? You can smell it even eight feet away from him.

Dressing up as a beggar is quite realistic.

"Caomin Shen Lu is a servant of the Queen Mother." the beggar replied.

The emperor looked at it carefully with his eyes widened, "Are you the Shen Lu who came to welcome guests?"

Shen Lu nodded, with a desolate look on his face, "The people were trusted by the Queen Mother, and they opened stores in various places to welcome guests and accumulate wealth for the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother once ordered that if she is no longer here, let the people hand over all their money to emperor."

Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, obviously this Shen Lu didn't know that the Queen Mother was still alive.

"It's the grass people who are useless. They were plotted when they escaped from the capital. Nearly two months have passed since they recovered from their injuries. In addition, the grass people's identity was exposed. King Rui's minions have been hunting the grass people. So until today, the grass people can catch up. Come and see the Emperor." Shen Lu said, holding the Queen Mother's seal with both hands, "As long as you get the Queen Mother's seal, you can get silver from the banks in the eight major cities. Excluding the ones in the capital, the others add up to almost a million taels. "

Wang Shun stepped forward to receive the seal. He looked at Shen Lu's black hands with cracks everywhere, and felt a little sad. This man was not disguised as a beggar. He was probably a beggar all the way here!

The outside world thought that the Queen Mother had died, and Shen Lu had escaped with the wealth. The emperor also failed to treat him, but he was willing to go through all kinds of hardships and sacrifice the treasure regardless of danger. This loyalty has moved people.

"Okay, Mr. Shen, please get up quickly. I am grateful for your kindness, and the people of Danliang are also grateful for your kindness." Tang Yin was a little excited. He stood up directly and went to help Shen Lu up. At this time, he didn't feel dark green. I felt stinky and even ashamed of my previous thoughts.

How could he dislike such a loyal minister?

"The emperor's words are serious. Thanks to the Queen Mother's rescue, the Caomin family has long sworn allegiance to the Queen Mother and the Emperor. The Caomin family should do this." Shen Lu said with a sad look, "It's a pity that the Queen Mother was harmed by Prince Rui. The Caomin family has no other ability. , I only hope to avenge the Queen Mother and wish the Emperor to regain the country."

"Okay, Mr. Shen is loyal and courageous. I decree to confer Mr. Shen as the Marquis of Zhongyi and enjoy the prince's salary." Tang Yin said.

Shen Lu waved his hand hurriedly, "A common man is just a merchant, how can He De be such a marquis? The emperor should send someone to take out the silver coins first, and we can talk about the rest later."

Tang Yin did not force it, and immediately asked Wang Shunxuan and several important ministers including Meng Liangsheng to enter the palace to discuss the matter together.

Jiang Yichun was also called into the palace, so as soon as he got home, he told Bai Ruozhu about the matter.

"Shen Lu is back? This is great!" Bai Ruozhu said excitedly, "Why don't you invite someone to our house? Why are he and I also partners?"

"He was kept in the palace by the emperor. How can he come out easily? Just go back and go to the palace to see him." Jiang Yichun said.

Bai Ruozhu thought about it, Shen Lu was now a key figure.

Early the next morning, she went into the palace to meet Shen Lu. The two of them were a little sad when they met. Shen Lu looked more than ten years older than before, which showed that he had endured a lot of hardships these days.

"I heard that Eunuch Wang said that you gave birth to two more fat boys. Congratulations! I didn't expect that you are not only a prosperous girl, but also a prosperous child." Shen Lu said with a smile as soon as he saw Bai Ruozhu, thinking about the same as before hearty.

Bai Ruozhu's face turned dark. What do you mean she gave birth to two more fat boys? Can she not mention this?

"I want to have a daughter. I'm already very depressed. Don't mention it again." Bai Ruozhu said rudely.

Shen Lu was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "It's just that your ideas are different from others, and that's what makes you special. Okay, I won't mention it, I won't mention it."

The two chatted for a while, and then Bai Ruozhu asked about Shen Lu's experiences along the way. Shen Lu's face was a little sad, "It's hard to explain in words. I almost died several times. I pretended to be a refugee and a beggar. In the end, I really He became a beggar and begged all the way to Beiyu City."

Shen Lu couldn't help but wipe the corners of his eyes when talking about it. He couldn't help but wipe the corners of his eyes. He hadn't eaten the delicious food for guests for many days. Every time he passed by a city to welcome guests, he couldn't help drooling. But He didn't dare to go back easily, for fear that Prince Rui's minions were waiting for him. He must not let the Queen Mother's seal fall into Prince Rui's hands!

"Then you can only eat lighter foods these days, lest your stomach can't bear it." Bai Ruozhu caught Shen Lu's mind with one sentence. She knew before that Shen Lu was a true foodie like her.
