MTL - Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.-Chapter 1208 Extra: Xindu Chapter
Chapter 1208 Extra Xindu Chapter
Ten years after the new emperor ascended the throne, Jiangbei, which had been occupied by barbarians, gradually recovered its vitality.
A large number of people returned to their homes, or simply the poor in the south of the Yangtze River, went to the north of the Yangtze River in search of opportunities to make a fortune.
Ten years of hard work and hard work have finally made this land riddled with holes come alive again.
Some courtiers proposed moving the capital back, but the new emperor vetoed it.
In terms of geographical location, Xindu is surrounded by the Jinsha River, which is naturally dangerous and has convenient waterways, which is also a natural line of defense.
From a customary point of view, everyone prefers the climate and beautiful scenery of Jiangnan.
So, the capital was finally moved to the construction of a new palace.
Jiang and Beijing were replaced by imperial palaces. From now on, Tianwu's cultural and economic center was still the new capital.
The national treasury is abundant, and the food warehouses everywhere are full to the point of overflowing.
Therefore, the common people were conscripted to work during the off-season, they had good food and were paid, so they had no objections or complaints.
Of course, this is also the reason why the new emperor has sent countless inspectors, and there are also spies among the common craftsmen.
Officials don't dare to be greedy or treat the people harshly, otherwise...the few people who didn't believe in evil at first are still blowing wind on the flagpole!
Killing chickens to scare monkeys is a crude method, but it is always the most effective.
In the palace, the maids and eunuchs perform their duties and do their best.
But because it is early summer, the weather is a bit hot, and occasionally after finishing the errands, it is inevitable to find a place to take a nap.
In the Xilong Pavilion, the new emperor was looking through the memorials. A little fox in white was lying on the side of the table, wagging its tail in boredom.
With a grimace on his face, Eunuch Feng brought tea in and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, um... the Queen sent someone to tell you that the eldest prince has a cough. Please come over and have a look."
"If you are sick, go to the imperial doctor. What's the use of going to see him?" The new emperor sneered without raising his eyes, "I have told you that since the eldest prince is weak, he needs to rest for a month and there is no need to go to the study. The queen needs to do her best. Take care of it, and leave the palace power to the imperial concubine for the time being!"
Eunuch Feng quickly agreed, thinking how the queen would regret hearing the news.
The original intention was to use the child to compete for favor, but she didn't expect that her son could no longer study and her palace rights were also taken away.
This woman is easily blinded by love. Even the queen can't see clearly that the emperor's heart has never been with them?
At this time, the deputy general manager and the young **** brought a box. After a few words, Eunuch Feng happily entered the door again.
“Your Majesty, Your Highness the Third Princess has given you a box, saying it is a new gadget from Quanzhou!”
The new emperor immediately put down his pen, with a look of surprise in his eyes, "Really, present it!"
The box was quickly opened, and inside was a large carpet woven with the colors of the sea and the sky.
The blue background is the sea surface, with blue-black rocks, white waves, seagulls passing over the sea surface, and in the distance there is half a rising sun jumping out of the sea, illuminating the surrounding area with golden color!
“Oh, this carpet is so beautiful and has a good meaning. It’s just the right size to lay here!”
Eunuch Feng observed the situation and immediately arranged for the young eunuchs to spread the carpet on the open space in front of the table.
Then, he quickly retreated with the young eunuch.
There was only one person and one fox in the room. The new emperor took off his shoes and socks and slowly stepped on the carpet, as if he were stepping on a white beach.
The little fox rolled and jumped excitedly, nuzzling here and sniffing there. It was also very happy.
The new emperor sat down, holding the little fox in his arms, enjoying the rare tranquility.
After a while, he slowly smiled, rubbed the little fox's head, and asked with a smile, "She once said that I would be a good emperor. Now, I have done it, right?"
“Chichi!” The little fox dodged the claws and shouted in protest, which made the new emperor laugh, with a trace of well-hidden regret in his cheerfulness...
In the princess's mansion, the third princess and her son were picking through the boxes on the floor. To be precise, they were fighting for them.
"Mom, that dagger is mine! The princess's aunt said that it was found overseas! It's a birthday gift specially given to me!" The nine-year-old boy usually likes martial arts but not literature, which makes him look much stronger than other children of the same age. He also has a particular fondness for knives and guns.
Fortunately, his facial features were similar to those of the third princess, otherwise the third princess once thought that she had carried the wrong son.
She rolled up her sleeves, exposing her white wrists, and inserted the dagger directly into her belt without giving in. "You brat, I'm your mother, what's wrong with playing with a dagger for a while? Stingy! I'll return it to you in a few days! Put that treasure-embedded music box down for me, be careful not to drop it. Your aunt gave it to me!"
The fight between mother and son was very lively. Caiyun, who was married and had a son, and became a nanny, followed beside her, smiling from ear to ear, and suggested.
“Princess, aren’t you going to the southwest? Why not take a detour to Quanzhou to see the princess?”
The three princesses and their wives were stunned for a moment, and then they both became excited.
“Mom, go to Quanzhou!”
“Go, I must go. I’ll ask someone soon to ask when the Li family’s fleet will leave. Let’s go out incognito and have a good time.”
After giving birth to his son, Lu Zong was taken back to the southwest by the old general. He used the excuse of being ill and never appeared in front of others again.
But in the past few years, the old general has never forgotten his daughter-in-law and grandson, and his fleet of cars has been delivering things every month.
Hearing that his grandson was a prodigy in martial arts, he even sent his best men to ride horses, shoot arrows, and study the art of war.
Even the third princess’s stubborn temper was deeply moved by the old general.
Ten years have passed, and it’s time to send my son to the southwest to meet his grandfather and prepare for taking over the border guard army in the future...
In the yard of Jia's house not far away, Baozhu hugged a cute and fat girl and was talking to his mother, Mrs. Jia Er.
Seven years ago, Mrs. Jia was ill and her family was afraid of delaying Baozhu's marriage, so they moved the date forward and married Xiujie of the Liu family three months earlier.
Actually, the two families’ relationship was not intentional.
After the new emperor ascended the throne, he had no intention of taking action against the Li family and others, so Zhimin and Xiujie played for a few months before being brought back to study and take the scientific examination.
Baozhu is always thinking about good news and always follows his mother to Liu's house.
Mrs. Liu thought that the pearl would bring good fortune. Zhi Min's daughter-in-law wanted to marry a girl from an aristocratic family and become the mistress of the house in the future. However, Xiu Jie, the younger son, did not have such a heavy responsibility. As long as he married someone with a good temperament, the couple would be harmonious.
So, with this in mind, the two families moved around frequently, and Baozhu and Xiujie also had more contact. The two foodies with the same hobby really slowly developed some feelings.
The two families happily got engaged, but many people secretly said that the Jia family was in a high position.
Today, Bao Zhu’s eldest son is five years old. Last year, he gave birth to a fat girl. She has a son and a daughter, so they can be called “good”.
At this moment, Bao Zhu handed her daughter to her mother and wandered around looking through the contents of the box, feeling extremely happy.
“Oh, this is spicy little whitebait! Sister Jiayin must have made it for me personally! And this crab sauce and this grilled fish fillet! They are all my favorites!”
Mrs. Jia Er smiled fondly and said, "The princess knows the tempers of you and your wife very well. Most of them are just eating, but there are not many things to use."
Baozhu opened a jar of spicy whitebait and put it into his mouth quickly. Seeing his daughter watching eagerly, he stuffed another one into her. As a result, the spicy little girl started to cry.
Mrs. Jia raised her hands angrily to avenge her granddaughter. Baozhu jumped up and ran away without putting down the jar in her hand!
Xiu Jie came in from outside. He was nearly thirty years old and in the prime of life. He was wearing a blue brocade gown and his hair was **** with a silver crown. He had long lost his original naughty and public appearance.
He had just left the office, but he didn't see his wife and children when he came home, so he changed his clothes and came over.
Seeing that his daughter-in-law had angered his mother-in-law again, he quickly protected his daughter-in-law.
Baozhu smiled and stuffed a small silverbait into her husband's mouth.
Even though she is the mother of two children, she still looks as naughty and carefree as before.
Xiu Jie finally coaxed his mother-in-law, hugged his daughter, and held his daughter-in-law's hand. As soon as he went out, he whispered, "I have an errand to go to the south for inspection. It will take three months. Do you want to take you out? You can go to Quanzhou Primary School first. Stay for a month and I’ll pick you up when I’m done!”
"Wow!" Baozhu was ecstatic and cheered in a lowered voice. She grabbed her husband and children and quickly got into the car. When the car door closed, she gave her husband a big kiss!
The fat girl watched from the side, imitating what he was doing, and also kissed her father.
Xiu Jie's cheeks were covered with saliva on both sides, but he didn't dislike it at all.
A family of three got together and laughed like fools!
