Rebirth of the perfect brother-in-law
Chapter 23 Experts and calculations
King Jing has a noble status and high reputation. Normally speaking, Chu Nan would not dare not to show humility and courtesy. However, King Jing especially does not like his descendants to please him with their beards. At first, some people slandered King Jing's temperament, but
Prince Jing is like a farmer who has worked in the royal palace for decades, and now people will suspect that he is just hypocritically showing his high integrity.
Although Chu Nan was not favored by the Chu family, he still knew some of the secrets of the past. When the late Emperor of Daliang passed away, King Jing, who was still the crown prince at the time, supported him and quickly stabilized the situation. Later, he unexpectedly gave way to someone who was not very popular at the time.
The conspicuous fourth prince Li Heng proclaimed himself Prince Jing and became a farmer with peace of mind.
Chu Nan secretly looked at the triumphant Prince Jing, but he felt more pressure in his heart than facing people like Yang Lie and Chu Yuan. He really didn't know what this seemingly old man wanted to say to him, so he had to check it out.
Talking about trivial things.
King Jing warmly greeted Chu Nan to eat edamame. Chu Nan picked up one and found that it was an ordinary soybean, cooked in hot water. He pressed his fingers slightly on the pod, and the beans were tender but not astringent, sticky but not glutinous.
The baby slipped into his mouth. This was an ordinary farm food, but Prince Jing of Chu Nan ate it with gusto.
Chu Nan knew that although these soybeans were inconspicuous, eating them had many benefits for the body. However, if he ate too much, he would inevitably suffer from phlegm, congestion, and cough. Prince Jing was old and should not eat too much, so
Chu Nan tactfully talked about the functions of soybeans and emphasized the many disadvantages of eating too much.
Although what he said were very simple truths, Prince Jing had never heard of them before and kept asking for details. Chu Nannai was able to cope with it by referring to the descriptions in medical books such as Shennong's Materia Medica and Materia Medica Seeking Truth from previous lives.
After hearing this, King Jing thought for a long time and sighed: "Sure enough, I think I have been studying farming for decades, but I never knew that this little soybean has so many sayings." After thinking about it, he smiled and asked Chu Nan.
: "Do you know why this king is looking for you?"
Chu Nan didn't know, so he stood aside and shook his head, thinking that he had never been in contact with Prince Jing's palace, and he really couldn't guess what Prince Jing was thinking.
Prince Jing ordered his servants to clean up the stone table and play with the taste: "I don't care much about things in the capital, but I know almost every move you make recently. Do you know why?"
Chu Nan lowered his head and thought to himself, Master, could it be that I am in the limelight this time, and Prince Jing has discovered my talents that I cannot conceal? Hey, do you want to admit it frankly and say it out loud that I am a master of the eighth grade!? Again
Then I thought about it, well, if Prince Jing intends to be his backer, who would dare to provoke me in the future without being short-sighted?
Chu Nan was about to admit it half-heartedly when he saw King Jing wave his hand and said: "Don't be embarrassed to admit it. This is nothing shameful. In the future, you will be forgotten to come to the palace often. This gate will always open to you."
Open.”
Chu Nan murmured: "How did the prince know?"
Prince Jing stood up, said hello to the distance, and said lightly: "Hey, this girl has to talk about it every day when she comes to my house. I don't even think about it."
Chu Nan then saw Xian'er biting her lip and walking towards this side. Although she was a little surprised, thinking about it carefully, she had never said anything about martial arts in front of Xian'er. After all, Xian'er knew nothing about these things. He was about to ask,
King Jing returns
The head smiled and said: "Every time Xian'er comes to the palace to deliver tea, she always talks to me. Every time, this little girl talks to me, saying that you are very good at farming and a master of farming. Now it seems
, but it’s not false at all.”
Good at farming??!! A master of farming!!??
Chu Nan was a little sluggish, and couldn't say anything for a long time. He felt extremely depressed.
Prince Jing looked at Xian'er lovingly, then at the dull Chu Nan, and said angrily: "What kind of expression is this? You must know that the people are the foundation of the country. Leading the army in war can make achievements, and so can hoeing and farming! If anyone looks down on farm work
, you just look down on me!"
Chu Nan quickly confessed, lowering his head but couldn't help but grinning. If the news that he was a master in farming spread, well, Chu Nan couldn't help but clench his hands tightly. He could even see Chu Yuan's iron-green face, Yangmei's pale face and countless
Qing's gloating over misfortune.
At this time, Daliang was not long after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The newly-emerged big families after the founding of the People's Republic of China and the big families left over from the war were aggressively enclosing land. Fortunately, Daliang was lower than Guangda, and the people had no land to farm. However, the fields around the capital were divided up by the royal family and a few relatives.
.and
Once they become tenants, even if those high-ranking big families accidentally kill them, the government will probably turn a blind eye. The status of the so-called master farmers can be imagined. Even the Daliang imperial examination has deleted the field of agriculture.
division.
Chu Nan opened his mouth, not wanting to blame Xian'er, and not daring to explain to the angry Prince Jing. He looked at Xian'er plaintively like a resentful woman, and reluctantly became a master of agriculture.
Xian'er timidly stood beside Prince Jing and said softly: "You... uh, hello, Master Chu."
Xian'er has been familiar with Chu Nan since she was a child. She usually talks to Chu Nan about you and me, but it is not easy to do so in front of outsiders. After all, the identities of the two are very different. If they still call you and me, Chu Nan's so-called Xian'er is indispensable.
Wearing the hat of being ignorant of etiquette and ill-educated is already a serious crime for a commoner girl who has not yet left the cabinet.
Prince Jing frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Young Master Chu and Second Master Chu. You are about the same age and we are acquaintances. Do you still call me this way on weekdays?"
Chu Nan heard it, but most of the dissatisfaction was directed at him. He smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, please calm down. This is none of my business and I don't want to."
j King Jing naturally knew the truth. If it were Yang Lin or someone from other big families, it would be hard to explain no matter how much he misbehaves with others. However, Xian'er was born in a farm family and is now in business. He has the same status as the young master of the Chu family, a century-old family.
They are all very different, so I dare not not pay attention to them.
Chu Nan's heart was moved, he shook his head and sighed: "My lord, I don't know, Xian'er and I have known each other since we were children. We are very familiar with each other, but we have to put on pretense outside. Even so, Xian'er has endured a lot of rumors. Alas,,,
"
Prince Jing, who had not cared about world affairs for decades, was furious when he heard this: "The fairies are so well-behaved, why do they have to be so polite!"
Chu Nan said sadly: "My lord, you have worked tirelessly to revitalize the agriculture of Daliang over the years, but you don't know how snobbish the people outside are now. If we meet, who wouldn't first compare their family background or the official position of their elders? Alas, the world's customs
Under the sun, people's hearts are not as old as they used to be."
Prince Jing thought for a moment and murmured: "Has this world really become so miserable? Xian'er has never told this to me."
Those words naturally added a lot of moisture. Now that the emperor is close to the people and pays attention to farming and mulberry, the people's life is many times better than that of the previous emperor. But Chu Nan will naturally not stupidly tell Prince Jing the truth.
Chu Nan put on a worried look and said half-truthfully: "My words may be a bit biased, but they are still well-founded." He glanced at Prince Jing secretly, pretending not to care and said: "Xian'er
She is kind-hearted, smart, and well-behaved. In my opinion, she is no worse than Princess Shu Ning of Prince Heng's Mansion. It's just a pity..."
Prince Jing's eyes lit up and he laughed and said: "Princess? What's wrong with Princess? I will accept Xian'er as my adopted daughter. From now on, Xian'er will also be the princess. I don't know who dares to despise her."
Chu Nan took a breath, looked at Prince Jing with admiration and said: "Your Majesty, Xian'er will also be the princess in the future. Not only will people bully her, but many of the prince's fantastic ideas in farming can also be borrowed from Xian'er.
If you put it into practice, it will really kill two birds with one stone.”
Chu Nan and Prince Jing talked for a long time, but the real protagonist Xian'er stood aside with a blushing face. He wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it. Chu Nan pretended to be dissatisfied and looked at Xian'er and said coldly: "You're still stupid.
What are you doing here, you haven’t even paid a visit to your adoptive father!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped on the back of the head. When he turned around, he saw that it was Prince Jing. He stood aside with a grimace. I don't know where he had offended this prince again.
Prince Jing glared at Chu Nan angrily and said angrily: "Now Xian'er is the princess and my daughter! No one can teach her a lesson except me!"
Xian'er couldn't hear Chu Nan's protective meaning, but she still had words in her heart. She saw Prince Jing's eyes full of love, and even vaguely uneasy. She felt soft in her heart. Yingying knelt down and said respectfully: "My daughter, see you."
Live with daddy."
This sentence shows that Xian'er does not understand the royal affairs. In this situation, Xian'er should call Prince Jing his father. However, Princess Jing died young and Prince Jing only had one son, who is now half-buried.
Now that I have a smart and well-behaved daughter, I can’t help but
Lao Huai was so relieved that he didn't care about these things. He hurriedly pulled Xian'er up and complained: "It's just like this. The ground is wet and your body is delicate. How can you kneel down when you say it?" He said he was complaining, but he was concerned.
The meaning of maintenance is something even a blind man can see.
After Chu Nan pretended to walk away, the princess teased Xian'er briefly. Prince Jing felt that he had fallen into Chu Nan's trap from the beginning, but Xian'er, who looked red-faced and frightened, became more and more confused.
The more I watched it, the more I liked it, and I secretly thought, if I was really tricked by this kid, I hope to be tricked a few more times. The more I thought about it, the happier I became, and I said loudly: "Make tea for my father, make good tea!"
