Chapter 147: Spies of All Kinds Are Everywhere
He Yu went there immediately.
In less than a quarter of an hour, a man of about twenty-three or twenty-four was brought back.
"Master, you finally have a task for me. I don't want to farm anymore. There is no future in farming. I can't even earn enough to support myself." The man was dressed like a farmer, with seven or eight patches on his coarse cloth clothes. His cloth shoes had a big hole in them, and his toes were exposed. His black toes were covered with mud, and there was also a lot of mud on his shoes, trouser legs, and clothes.
As he walked along, mud was everywhere he passed, which made He Yu, who was behind him, so angry that his face turned black and he followed him with a broom and shovel.
"I told you to change your shoes and clothes before coming back, why are you so anxious? You made my clean clinic full of mud." He Yu complained continuously.
Yan Xiao said without even turning his head: "I roll around in the mud every day and I don't mind the dirt, but you find this little bit of mud dirty."
He Yu was so angry that his hair exploded: "How can it be the same? Can a clinic be the same as your farmland?"
Yan Xiaocai was too lazy to pay attention to him, his mind and eyes were filled with his master Xiao Jingxuan.
"Master, I am here. I am always ready. Please give me the task as soon as possible."
Xiao Jingxuan said: "Don't worry, let me introduce my wife to you first."
Yan Xiao: “…” Wife?
"Master, I haven't married yet at my age, and you took the first step!!!" Yan Xiao was devastated.
He is twenty-five years old this year. In order to deal with the government, he found Xiao Lingdang for a fake marriage. Xiao Lingdang is also a subordinate of the master. After they got married, they have always treated each other with respect. There is no such thing as a married life.
The master once said that women were boring, he didn't want to be trapped by love, and he would never marry in the future. But now, after not seeing him for such a short time, he brought back a beautiful lady.
Jamel Xiao straightened his back: "I can't help it. I've met someone I like. If I don't marry him, I will regret it for the rest of my life."
He turned to Ye Tang and said, "Madam, this man is Yan Xiao. He was born in a farming family and has been farming since he could walk. He is very experienced. The children in the Lonely Garden need to learn the skills of being self-reliant, and farming is one of them. He is the teacher who teaches the children how to farm. Most of the rice and vegetables that the children eat are grown by themselves. They only buy them from outside when they don't have enough."
Ye Tang's eyes lit up: "That's great!"
Yan Xiao: “…”
He suddenly had a very bad feeling.
Half an hour later.
Yan Xiao followed Ye Tang and Xiao Jingxuan to the farm.
Seeing the abandoned farmland, the huge barren mountains, and the numb expressions of the people who had been killed, Yan Xiao's heart sank to the bottom.
"Master, the task you gave me is to move to a bigger new place to continue farming?"
Jamel Xiao chuckled: "Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"
Yan Xiao: “…” He wanted to betray his master, he really wanted to betray his master.
After handing over the farm and the barren mountain to Yan Xiao, a reliable subordinate, Ye Tang and Xiao Jingxuan just patted their butts and left.
The two returned to Prince Xian's villa, met up with Ye Peng, Ye Ping'an, Prince Xian and his wife, and returned to Wutong County together.
"Tian'an Mansion is a good place. We can come here often in the future." Ye Tang said to Ye Ping'an: "While playing, I will also arrange many tasks for you."
Ye Pingan didn't feel annoyed at all, his expression was excited and full of anticipation: "Sister, what tasks are there? How many tasks are there?"
As long as he is not allowed to study, he can do anything.
Ye Tang patted his brother's head and said, "There will be missions, but not now. The most urgent thing is that you have to study hard and improve your abilities. You have to learn martial arts, reading, and arithmetic... You have to learn all of what I said."
Ye Ping'an: “…” With such a stupid head, can he handle learning so many things?
When they arrived in Wutong County, Qin Jinhua didn't want to go back to the palace. She wanted to go to Qingquan Village to eat strawberries.
Gongsun Tianhua also wanted to go, but saw a guard coming hurriedly.
"Your Majesty, spies from Fuso have been spotted in the north of the city."
The Yuan Dynasty was getting better and better, and the surrounding countries were eyeing it covetously. The Fuso Kingdom was the most ambitious one, keeping a close eye on the Yuan Dynasty every day, often invading the Yuan Dynasty and causing chaos, and planting countless spies there.
After Gongsun Tianhua arrived in Wutong County, he immediately arranged for people to search for spies from various countries, trying to root them out completely to prevent them from leaking anything that should not be leaked.
This is the fifth spy discovered by the palace. The previous four spies were from Fuso and other countries.
Gongsun Tianhua had to deal with the spy matter and could not go to Qingquan Village. His anger was evident on his face.
"My dear, go and enjoy yourself first. I will come to find you after I finish my chores." Gongsun Tianhua was reluctant to leave his wife.
Qin Jinhua comforted him: "Just focus on your work and don't worry about me. It doesn't matter if you come or not. If it's late, I won't go back home and will stay at Jingxuan's place for one night."
If this happened in the capital, as a princess, she could only rest in the palace and her parents' home, and she could not rest in other people's homes at will, as she would be criticized.
Wutong County is great!
There is no need to be so particular, she can rest wherever she wants.
When Qin Jinhua first left the capital for her fiefdom, she was reluctant to leave the capital. But now that she has gotten used to it, she actually feels that this poor place is better than the capital.
Mainly, the atmosphere is good.
Hearing that Qin Jinhua would not return home and that he would have to stay alone in the empty room at night, Gongsun Tianhua felt very disappointed. After Ye Tang and others left, he immediately went to find the spy, captured him, uprooted the stronghold, and interrogated the spy over and over again with the most cruel means.
After he could no longer ask any more questions, he rushed to Qingquan Village without stopping.
Ye Tang and his companions had already arrived at Qingquan Village, where they had hot meals and sweet and delicious strawberries.
Qin Jinhua took a strawberry and put it in her mouth, squinting her eyes in enjoyment: "It's so sweet and delicious. It's a pity that my father and his family are far away in the capital and can't eat such delicious food."
She asked Ye Tang: "Can such delicious strawberries be brought to the capital to be planted?"
Ye Tang nodded: "Okay, but I'll be the one to teach you at the beginning."
Qin Jinhua originally wanted to say that she would arrange for someone to learn how to grow strawberries from Ye Tang, and she would get three parts from the sales and Ye Tang would get seven parts, but after thinking about it, she decided not to.
She has too many things on her hands, and she doesn't have enough energy to focus on the strawberry business. She doesn't have enough manpower, and it will take a while to train a reliable manager.
Ye Tang saw what she was thinking and said with a smile, "Sister Qin, don't be in a hurry. The strawberries have just been planted and are not at their best yet. We will have plenty of opportunities in the future."
When Gongsun Tianhua and his six guards arrived at Chashu Town at full speed, it was almost dark. His stomach was growling with hunger, and he suddenly remembered that he was so busy with work that day that he forgot to eat lunch. He was used to eating lunch, and he would feel very hungry if he skipped a meal.
Gongsun Tianhua was so hungry that he had no time to hurry on. He brought his people to a small stall, intending to eat a bowl of knife-cut noodles first before going to Qingquan Village.
As soon as I sat down, I saw a man eating hard. He looked familiar.
Gongsun Tianhua couldn't help but take a few more glances. When he was about to look away, the man raised his head, put down his chopsticks, and wiped the corner of his mouth.
Gongsun Tianhua exclaimed: "He Songlin!!!"
