The Reborn Lady is Farming

  Qi Xiuyuan was the fourth-rank general of the Western Battalion of Lizhou Road and the highest commander of the Western Battalion.

  Xiying is stationed in Xingzhou House under Xingyuan House. Under Xingzhou House Guoxia is Shunzheng County. Because the prefecture of Xingzhou Prefecture is located in Shunzheng County, there are now three groups of forces in the city of Xingzhou Prefecture.

   First, the government office of Shunzheng County is located in the east of the county, the government office of Xingzhou Prefecture is located in the north of the county, and the offices of these generals are located in the south of the county.

Although Qi Xiuyuan said he would take them back to the barracks, there was nothing in the barracks, and Qi Xiuyuan didn't want to wrong his younger brother, so he took him back to the house in Shunzheng County first, and arranged for his younger brother and cousin before taking his own. The confidant called to the study.

  The Qi family was only a small family in Lin'an Mansion, and Qi's father Qi Feng was just a fourth-rank censor in the Censor's Terrace, the same as Qi Xiuyuan's rank. Besides their father and son, there was no other clan member of the Qi family.

   Although the civil officials are now more honorable than the military officials, the fourth-rank military general in charge of the military and the fourth-rank censor middle-ranking officer of the censor station adjutant really can't tell who is more important.

And Qi Xiuyuan was able to rise so quickly after joining the military position, not only because he had served as a bodyguard by the saint's side for half a year, but also because his two uncles were military generals, and because he dared to fight, he fought almost desperately on the battlefield After accumulating illustrious military exploits, it is possible to rise from a sixth-rank captain to a fourth-rank general in two years.

Qi Xiuyuan's feud with his father was something his confidants knew. He ran to the border at the age of sixteen, and it was admirable to get to this point without relying on Qi's family, but Qi's family was a scholar and he joined the army. There is an opinion about not studying, even if he is already a fourth-rank, not worse than his father, but he is still ashamed to mention it.

   Qi Xiuyuan's connection with that family was Qi Haoran, his cousin's younger brother.

   Who knew that half a month ago he received news that his younger brother left a book and left, and even his cousin disappeared.

  Qi Xiuyuan only felt angered. Although his younger brother was naughty, he knew his sense of proportion, not to mention that his cousin was a person with seven orifices and a long heart. He could force the two of them to leave a book and run away.

After anger comes worry. Now the world is not peaceful, there are constant bandits all over the place, and the folk customs are sturdy. My younger brother and cousin are only twelve years old, and the two have never traveled far. The corners of his mouth were blistered, so he could only send his personal soldiers all the way to the south.

   When my younger brother ran away, he had to come here except for his uncle. Brother and uncle, younger brother would naturally choose him. Qi Xiuyuan anxiously asked people to look south along the avenue, but there was no news.

   Yesterday afternoon, he received a report from the spies who stayed in Mingshui County. Only then did he know that the two boys had come to Xingzhou Mansion, and he hurriedly rode his horse to find someone.

Although Qi Xiuyuan hadn't seen his younger brother for two years, he kept writing letters every month. He naturally knew that his younger brother was most concerned about the baby fat on his face. Every time he wrote to him, he complained that his round face made him look smaller. The classmates who study with him look down on him.

   But when I saw my brother this time, the flesh on both cheeks of my brother disappeared, and the whole person was quite haggard. If it wasn't for the majesty of his brother, Qi Xiuyuan would have cried with his brother in his arms.

   Now that he has calmed down his younger brother, Qi Xiuyuan no longer suppressed his low air pressure, and kept releasing the cold air, so cold that Shi Jian and a few confidants who came to listen to the order shrank their necks.

"Send a letter to Jiang Ze, so that he doesn't have to come back for the time being, go to Lin'an to find out what happened, why did the fourth son and the cousin run away from home?" Qi Xiuyuan's expression was cold, his brother and the others had a way to lead them in and out. The city has to be taken out. If the Qi family finds it, they will chase it out. How can they not be found following such obvious traces?

"No," military advisor Rong Xuan hurriedly stopped him: "Xiu Yuan, Jiang Ze has an official position, and military generals cannot enter the capital without an edict. Once someone finds out, the consequences will be disastrous, so let's call him back. As for what happened in Lin'an, it's better Ask the fourth son and the first son directly, as to why the Qi family did not find them," Rong Xuan sneered, "Isn't this obvious? Your stepmother is naturally unwilling to bring your brother back."

   Qi Xiuyuan frowned, "That's just an aunt."

   "Yes, yes, it's my aunt, not my stepmother," Rong Xuan said with kindness. "Let's call Jiang Ze and the others back. They've already been found. It just so happens that Fourth Young Master doesn't want to learn martial arts? Let Jiang Ze teach him."

Qi Xiuyuan just pondered for a moment and then nodded in agreement, "Then send the order to let Jiang Ze come back, Jin Yu, don't let the four sons be your sons, they are younger than you, you can just call them by their first names, otherwise, they will be called Xiao Sihe. Second one."

  Rongxuan, courtesy name Jinyu, was a military advisor in Xiying, who followed Qi Xiuyuan all the way from Lin'an to here, and was Qi Xiuyuan's confidant.

   Qi Haoran ranked fourth in the family, Qi Xiuyuan was the eldest, and the second and third children in the middle were all descendants. Naturally, now their biological mother was upright, and she was already a descendant.

   After talking about personal matters, it is time to talk about the real business. Qi Haoran said: "I heard something in the restaurant today. It is autumn harvest time, but the price of rice and noodles in the grain store has risen."

   Qi Xiuyuan's bodyguard Mo Xiong frowned and said, "Could it be that this year's harvest is not good?"

   "Impossible," Rong Xuan frowned and said, "I just inspected the field some time ago, and the crops in the field are not bad. Recently, the weather has been good, how can the harvest be bad?"

   Qi Xiuyuan looked at the military aide-de-camp, He Ming, who bowed his head in thought, "What price are they asking for the grain we want to buy?"

   "One tael for one coin and one stone of rice is already two bucks less than the market price."

   "Zhao Guang agreed?" Qi Xiuyuan asked in a deep voice. Zhao Guang was the quartermaster of Xiying.

   "Yes, you can buy it as long as you wait for the soldier's salaries to be delivered."

   A cold light flashed in Qi Xiuyuan's eyes, and he snorted coldly, "Middle rice in the grain store costs one or two or three cents, but the grain they went to collect was only four cents and twenty cents."

   The expressions of several people changed slightly, and they looked at each other, "Well, are we being calculated?"

  Rong Xuan frowned and said, "We need to find out about this matter. We are going to be stationed in Xingzhou Prefecture. If the people are forced too hard at this time and they rebel, it will be us who will suffer."

   "Yes," He Ming's face was also a little ugly, "We didn't get the benefits, but instead took the blame for them."

Qi Xiuyuan nodded with satisfaction, "I'll leave this to you. It just so happens that every year apart from us, we have to buy extra military supplies. Taking advantage of the autumn harvest, He Ming, why don't you go and buy some food from those villagers, you don't have to put pressure on the price, trust them Happy to sell it to you at the right price."

  He Ming wanted to take advantage of the low price of grain to buy a batch of grain, but seeing that the general was unwilling to hurt the people, he had no choice but to nod: "Don't worry, general, I will definitely handle this matter well."

   Qi Xiuyuan said: "I remember that Zhao Guang is the direct branch of the local squire Zhao's family, Jin Yu, go check this person, I don't believe he doesn't know about these things."

   Jin Yu knew that Qi Xiu could no longer tolerate Zhao Guang, so she nodded in response.

  Qi Xiuyuan made a simple arrangement before pacing to the backyard.

   Qi Haoran and Fan Zijin slept for more than an hour and woke up hungry.

   They came back after dinner at noon. It was already dark and hungry, so the two of them groped and got up to find something to eat.
