Chapter 265 Found a treasure
The emperor glanced at him and said, "I remember that you had just been engaged to Yaoyao, the daughter of Marquis Leshan. At that time, I was wondering how a secret guard like you could win the favor of a beauty. It turns out that you relied on your mouth."
Yuan Er's mouth twitched, and he saluted and said, "Your Majesty, Duke Fuguo, the remaining saplings are in the Prince's Mansion, you can go get them anytime, I will take my leave first."
The emperor waved his hand and said, "Go and protect your master well."
Yuan Er bowed again and left.
Huangfu Nan looked at the sapling in his hand and turned to the emperor and asked, "By the way, I only know that the Crown Princess is the sister of Marquis Leshan, and I don't know much else. Can you tell me more?"
The emperor glanced at him, sat down and told him the general outline of the matter.
After hearing this, Huangfu Nan looked at the emperor with an expression as if he had picked up a treasure.
The emperor glared at him and said, "When I knew about this, I also felt that Xiao'er, the running dog, had found a treasure."
"She saved Anguo from suffering as a woman, and now she is donating grain, seeds and cotton clothes. She is a saint indeed!"
"But she herself refused to admit it. She said that if she was to be called a saint, she had to act like a saint, and she didn't want to be bound by that."
Huangfu Nan nodded, "Then she is not a person who seeks fame. To be called a saint is something that many people would rather not have."
The emperor smiled and said, "Yes, when Xiao'er told me that, I felt the same way."
"If nothing else, even I love this false reputation!"
Which emperor does not love a holy reputation? What he wants to leave behind is a holy reputation rather than a reputation as a tyrant.
Huangfu Nan glanced at him and said, "That's right, otherwise how could I let down Sister Aqin."
The emperor's eyelids twitched and he wanted to jump up and hit him.
"Get lost." He is bringing up something that is not relevant. How many times should he explain it?
Huangfu Nan threw the memorial to him and said, "Take a look. Is it okay for me to present it this way tomorrow?"
The emperor glared at him, then opened the letter and began to read.
As soon as Yuan Man walked out of the city gate, he met Gu Chen and his group who were also about to leave Kyoto.
"Your Highness the Crown Princess, where are you going?" Gu Cheng asked with raised eyebrows.
Yuan Man lifted the carriage curtain and looked at Xiao Yudie who was sitting next to him. Seeing that Madam Gu was also in the carriage, he smiled and said, "Madam, are you going back to Mingzhou City?"
Madam Gu smiled and replied, "Yes, it has been a while since I came to Kyoto. It is time to go back."
"Your Highness, are you going to Mingzhou City as well?"
Yuan Man shook his head, "No, I'm going somewhere else."
"Madam, are you going back to prepare for Gu Cheng's wedding?"
Madam Gu laughed and said, "Yes, the wedding date is set for the end of October. If the Crown Princess has time, you are welcome to come to the Gu Mansion for a drink."
Yuan Man smiled and nodded, "Of course there is. Gu Cheng finally got married, so of course we can't miss this wedding wine."
"By the way, Gu Cheng, I have something to tell you, please come over here."
Gu Cheng was startled, jumped off the carriage and walked over, asking casually, "What's the matter? Why do you need me to come here?"
Yuan Man glanced at Xiao Yudie before whispering, "I learned yesterday that Xiao Xing, the magistrate of Jiucheng County, died of poisoning at home."
Gu Cheng stared at her with wide eyes, "Really?"
"Of course it's true. The news was brought back by the Duke of Fuguo, Huangfu Nan, and His Majesty also knows about it." Yuan Man saw Xiao Yudie staring at this side, thought for a moment and said, "Before his death, Xiao Xingjia had contact with foreign people. He met them at the Arctic border. After he returned to Jiucheng, he was found dead at home."
"Judging from the time, he should have gone to the Arctic border not long after you left Jiucheng."
Gu Cheng looked at her, "You mean, he is very likely colluding with people from foreign countries?"
Yuan Man shook his head, "No, he is not colluding with the foreign people, but he is most likely a person from the previous dynasty."
Gu Cheng frowned, "How is that possible? It has been more than a hundred years since the previous dynasty, and several generations have already changed."
"Your Majesty and the Auxiliary Guild have arranged people to investigate this matter. I am just reminding you. It is entirely up to you what to do." Yuan Man lowered the curtain after he finished speaking.
"Yuan Qi, let's continue."
Gu Cheng watched Yuan Man's carriage go away, frowned, and got on the carriage.
Seeing that he was frowning, Madam Gu and Xiao Yudie immediately asked, "What did the Crown Princess say to you? Why do you look like this?"
Gu Cheng looked at Xiao Yudie and said, "Your father passed away."
Xiao Yudie naturally didn't believe it, and frowned and said, "My father was in good health, how could he die suddenly? Don't joke with me."
Gu Cheng shook his head, "I'm not kidding, the Crown Princess told me this, she learned about it from the Prince of Fuguo."
"Jiucheng is not far from where the Duke of Fuguo is stationed. It's not surprising that the Duke of Fuguo knows about this."
Xiao Yudie's eyes immediately turned red, and she took his hand and said, "I, I want to go back."
"Okay, I'll make the arrangements. Let's send Grandmother back to Mingzhou City first." As soon as Gu Cheng finished speaking, Old Madam Gu said, "Don't worry about sending me back. It's been a while since I got to Kyoto from Fuguogong. Things over there are more urgent, so you should go quickly."
Because they were in the carriage, Xiao Yudie did not stand up to salute, but sat down and bent down, "Thank you, Madam."
Madam Gu patted her hands and said, "My condolences."
After Gu Cheng ordered the guards to escort the old lady, he took Xiao Yudie and found another carriage and headed in a different direction.
As soon as Yuan Man entered Pinghe City, he received a message from Yuan Yi.
"Master, Yuan Yi's message was forwarded from Kyoto."
Yuan Man took the letter from Yuan Qi and raised his eyebrows after reading it.
Zhenbei King Lingxiao has also come to Kyoto. According to the time given by Yuan Yi, he will arrive in two days.
However, Yuan Yi has not yet found out the reason why he returned to Kyoto.
He was asked to find a suitable place to put the seeds that Yuan Yi brought with him, since they couldn't be planted this year anyway.
They just need to find out whether the King of Zhenbei is the mastermind behind the human traffickers.
She also had to resolve the issues here as soon as possible so that she could go back and see why King Zhenbei returned to Beijing.
After entering Pinghe City, she did not stay in the city, but went directly to Qinhe Mountain.
First put the cotton and wheat flour into the newly built large warehouse at the foot of Qinhe Mountain, and then go to find Yuanyue and Yuanrui.
"Master, why are you back? If you have anything, just come to us. You are not feeling well now." Yuanyue stepped forward and wanted to support her.
Yuan Man smiled and waved his hand, "My internal strength is not for show, and the journey is not far."
"Okay, take a seat, I have something to tell you."
Yuan Yue and Yuan Rui sat down opposite her, "Master, please give me your orders."
Yuan Man said: "I put 100,000 kilograms of wheat flour and 1,000 kilograms of cotton in the two newly built warehouses. The wheat flour will be shipped to the northern border, the Arctic border, and the far north in early October."
"The Arctic border and the Far North will each get 30%, and the Northern Territory will get 40%. You will have it arranged by the end of September."
"Remember, when you send it over, don't just hand it over to the local government. Arrange for our own people to donate."
Yuan Yue and Yuan Rui looked at each other and nodded, "Yes, Master."
