Chapter 146(1/2)

Princess Yu'an looked at Chu Yunning in a daze like lightning strike: "No, no, you must be talking nonsense, how could the emperor give up on me?"

Seeing the other party talking crazy nonsense and slowly calming down, Chu Yunning raised his eyebrows: "Is there anything strange about this?"

"Of course!" Princess Yu'an was excited: "If this princess hadn't given advice, what would he have the ability to take the position of prince? If I hadn't framed the third prince, he would have been killed long ago."

Listening to the other party's repeated words about the secrets of the prince of Yunlan from time to time, Chu Yunning raised a long strand of hair on his temples with his fingertips and bent his lips: "Since you know that the prince has too many secrets, it's normal for the prince to tolerate you."

"He dares!" Princess Yu'an was worried that she would be given up, so she stubbornly said, "Chu Yunning, let's make a deal."

Chu Yunning looked sideways and sneered, sneering, with an expression that you had no use value at all. Princess Yu'an was so angry that she shouted: "If you want to attack Yunlan, you must rely on this princess. I can recommend it to you."

"Just you?" Chu Yunning didn't believe it.

Princess Yu'an said anxiously: "Anyway, you have to escort me back to Yunlan, so why not give it a try, anyway, you won't suffer any loss."

Seeing this, Lin family on the side also followed and said, "Ning Yatou, Princess Yu'an is the princess of Yunlan after all, and she is somewhat valuable. Isn't it a pity to die in vain? What if it's useful?"

"Yes, this princess is valuable after all."

"Second Auntie I don't know that Princess Yu'an is naturally cunning and unreliable," said Chu Yunning.

Lin said again after hearing this: "This is easy to deal with. If you find out that Princess Yu'an is telling lies, don't give her a second chance and just kill her."

Hearing this, Chu Yunning's mouth twitched gently, which was even more direct than himself.

Princess Yu'an glared at Lin fiercely, as if she was blaming her for being too verbally polite, but when it touched Chu Yunning's eyes, she swallowed the insults that came to her mouth.

"Let's talk about it, I don't expect to help anything." Chu Yunning performed lightly, and asked Princess Yu'an to tie up Princess Yu'an and threw it on the carriage without mercy.

The more Chu Yunning cares about such a person, the more arrogant and domineering she will be. If you don’t take her seriously, she will not be able to guess your thoughts, feel unsure, and is always worried and afraid.

After explaining to Lin’s briefly, Lin raised three fingers and said, “Don’t worry, I will never make things difficult for my sister-in-law anymore. If you have time, go and talk with me.”

"I'm sorry, second aunt."

After getting back on the carriage, I chased the large army all the way and didn't catch up until the evening. I was very anxious along the way. In addition to supplying the horse with food and grass in the middle of the journey, I prepared some water sources. I almost went day and night, rushing forward every morning and night.

"Are you still used to it?" Emperor Mingwen held a kettle in his hand, raised his head and took a big sip. There was no fatigue between his eyebrows and eyes, and it was full of stars and expectations.

She is not the original owner of the delicate body, she also likes traveling. Although she went to war this time, Chu Yunning had nothing to get used to.

"You can see many scenery along the way, which is something that you can't see in the house, and it has a unique taste."

After hearing this answer, Emperor Mingwen was not surprised at all. The women he liked were different, and his speech, vision and courage were all unique.

"You brought Princess Yu'an with you?"

Chu Yunning nodded: " Staying in the capital is a disaster. You can always feel at ease with you. Maybe it's useful."

Emperor Mingwen said: "You are still considerate."

The two looked at each other and laughed. That night she slept in a simple tent. She didn't sleep soundly and got up before dawn and continued on her way.

At this time, Eunuch Mo rushed over, pointed to the carriage beside him and said, "Chu Shanggong, the emperor said that this carriage is given to you. You must rest and take good care of it, otherwise who will treat the three armies?"

Even the reasons were found, but Chu Yunning had no chance to refuse. He thought that he would have to travel for two months, so he simply refused.

"Thank you for your kindness for me."

The carriage was covered with two thick layers of bedding, and exquisite snacks on the small table, as well as books she had to pass on when she was free. The bumps in the carriage were indeed reduced, and it was many times more comfortable than before.

The journey was swaying and stormy, and Chu Yunning began to prepare sachets for the soldiers to repel mosquitoes and calm the mind along the way.

It was winter in a blink of an eye, and snowflakes were floating outside. Chu Yunning wrapped her cloak tightly, and her head poked out the window to look at the scenery outside.

Seeing the ground turning white, her mood also improved, Bi Xiu murmured from the side: "I heard that the more I go to the border, the colder the temperature is, and there is not even a vegetable leaf. The people who stay at the border all year round are really pitiful."

The border is not as good as the capital. If Bi Xiuti hadn't realized this problem, Chu Yunning touched his jaw: "It's hard to stay at the border, how can he do it if he can't get well?"

"Miss, can you do it?" Bixiu asked.

Since following the lady, Bixiu felt that her lady could do everything and could do anything.

Chu Yunning rubbed his eyebrows, wondering what the planting technology in this era was like, so he attracted the guards who followed the army and asked, "How long will it take to get to the place?"

"Go back to Lord Chu, at this speed, it's almost the same as five or six days."

Chu Yunning nodded in a clear way.

Sure enough, when I was having supper, the food comparison was significantly lower than before. There were no shortage of white flour buns, corn cakes, chickens, ducks and geese, and I didn’t even see any vegetable leaves.

"What, it's not up to the taste?" Emperor Mingwen saw that she was dazed and handed the chicken legs on the plate in front of him to Chu Yunning.

Chu Yunning came to his senses, looked at the chicken legs and shook his head: "I was thinking that it would be great if the soldiers in the border could eat fresh fruits and vegetables in winter."

"Oh, Lord Chu, let alone the border can't eat, even if the capital is not in winter, it is rare. It is preserved from the ice cellar in the village. How can you eat fresh fruits and vegetables in winter?" Eunuch Mo said with a smile.

Perhaps he was familiar with it, so Chu Yunning didn't care about the other party's interruption.

"What's impossible? This war is a protracted war. The food and grass will be used up sooner or later. If we have advantages that other countries do not have, we will only benefit but harmless, and we will also let the people on the border not worry about food and clothing."

Emperor Mingwen heard the implicit meaning in his words: "Can you ask the people to grow vegetables and sell them?"

"What's wrong?" Chu Yunning asked back, relying on his hands to farm diligently, he sold the fruits he got and created a good harvest. Isn't that right?

Emperor Mingwen sighed. The woman could see business opportunities wherever she went, so she asked again: "As you mean, are you already planning?"

"I want to try it." Chu Yunning looked at Emperor Mingwen with his eager eyes, trying to convince the other party, but Emperor Mingwen threw the word "approval" to her.

"Your Majesty doesn't want to hear my opinion?" She still had a lot of things to say.

Emperor Mingwen shook his head: "Just let go of what you want to do. If it doesn't work, I won't blame you. If it works, I will reward you heavily!"

He did it as he said, after the three armies arrived at the border city, the first thing Chu Yunning did when he arrived in the local area was to find a suitable place to plant it.

The place should be big enough and the soil should not be too bad. Chu Yunning spent two days searching this time. On the third day, under the leadership of the locals, he found a hillside, which was empty all around, and occasionally there were several families.

He bent down and looked at the soil. It was neither good nor bad. It was OK to plant two seasons of hybrid rice. Chu Yunning planned the drawings overnight and asked someone to collect seeds that could be planted everywhere, and prepared for three days.

On the fourth day, Chu Yunning led an army of 100 people to start digging holes, cut down many trees, and built greenhouses.

Seeing the first greenhouse appearing in scale, Chu Yunning asked someone to water it overnight, soaked the soil, and fertilized it on both sides continuously. He made sure that the soil was wet and soft when it was pinched.

"Miss, what can I plant here?" Bixiu asked curiously with wide eyes. She could imagine that the greenhouse was full of fresh vegetables.

Chu Yunning said without hesitation: "Jiang!"

It is cold in winter, and ginger soup is the easiest way to drive away the cold. It’s okay to drink it when you catch a cold. She tried ginger first in the first shed.

Sowing the seeds, people clamped the thick straw on the shed to ensure the appropriate temperature in the shed. If you have a vision during the day, you will open the straw.

Emperor Mingwen also came over to take a look at it curiously. When he lifted the curtain, he saw Chu Yunning dressed in a coarse cloth dress. There were only two beads on his temples. He was bent down to check the ground, and he told people around him from time to time.

Bi Xiu winked at Chu Yunning and pointed behind. Chu Yunning looked along his gaze and found that Emperor Mingwen was coming, and stood up to salute.

"No need to be too polite. I haven't seen each other for several days, so there are a lot of changes here." Emperor Mingwen found that there seemed to be nothing she could not do. The shed was quite like that.

Chu Yunning smiled and introduced: "This land is planted with ginger, which can help to drive away the cold. Many people come from the capital and may not be able to withstand such bad weather."

"You are still as thoughtful as you think." Emperor Mingwen nodded.

Seeing that the two people were getting along harmoniously, Eunuch Mo waved his hand and took away the others and left the space for them. Chu Yunning asked about the situation at the border, but Emperor Mingwen did not hide it: "The situation is worse than I imagined. Yunlan Kingdom has already prepared for war, and the other three countries are ready to move, among which the Eastern Kingdoms are already starting to train troops."

"What are the emperor worried about?" Chu Yunning asked, "The alliance of the four countries was the worst plan they had ever thought of."

Emperor Mingwen curled a smile on his lips: "I can't hide anything from you, I plan to send troops from Mingye."

"Then I wish the emperor a triumphant return soon." Chu Yunning, seeing Emperor Mingwen's posture, should be confident and had already made plans.

“What else to say besides that?”

Chu Yunning hesitated for a moment and shook his head again: "The emperor will definitely return in person. I will personally welcome you."

"Okay! One word is certain!"

The two looked at each other and laughed. Before leaving, Chu Yunning handed Emperor Mingwen a sachet containing a peace talisman; "Although this battle is risky, I believe that the emperor will definitely return safely."

Emperor Mingwen took the peace talisman, placed it directly on the inside of his heart and nodded.

This time it took five days

Chu Yunning was a little restless and wandered around the greenhouse. Bixiu approached her: "Miss, it seems that green buds are emerging."

"Is that true?" Chu Yunning came back to his senses, lowered his head and pushed a piece of straw away. Sure enough, he saw the tender green buds. He couldn't help but smile on his face: "This is a good thing, which means we have succeeded. I will continue to detain the greenhouse, the more the better."

She wants to grow some fresh vegetables and some useful herbs, wait for the spring of the coming year, and raise some cattle and sheep to provide the freshest meat for the soldiers.

Seeing that it was getting dark again, Chu Yunning went to the camp: "Is there no news from the emperor?"

"No, the emperor led his troops to meet the Yunlan soldiers who came to attack in the canyon. The two sides were in a fierce battle, and the enemy troops were defeated step by step, but the emperor took advantage of the victory to pursue..."

Halfway through, Chu Yunning's face was gloomy. The most taboo thing in war was to take advantage of the victory, especially for unfamiliar places.

"Don't worry about Chu Shanggong, the emperor will definitely have his own measure." Eunuch Mo said.

Chu Yunning's eyelids twitched, and the moonlight was condensed. He felt uneasy in his heart. He hesitated for a moment and was about to rush out.

Suddenly, the lights were bright outside, and shouts came: "The emperor is back!"

Listening to the inspiration, you will know that this victory was defeated.

Emperor Mingwen returned from riding a horse. His military uniform was already stained with stains. The fatigue that could not be concealed between his eyebrows was staring at her with brilliant eyes.

"God bless you." Eunuch Mo closed his hands and muttered: "The emperor is finally back safely."
