Chapter 1,339 I have something to say 2

This village chief’s wife is really interesting. You said she is brave, she nodded and bowed carefully; but she was afraid that she was brave, she dared to explain to the prefect “Don’t forget” to the prefect.

Just as he was thinking, the village chief outside asked his wife in a voice: "How is it? What have you heard? Did the Linyang Marquis blame us for not being well-received? Does the prefect think we were too much?"

"What are you talking about?" The village chief's wife was full of excitement and couldn't suppress her voice: "It doesn't matter! She is a high-ranking official, so she doesn't care about those things. What she said is a big deal!

Let me tell you, Lin Yanghou said that we want to collect the seafood we have in our hands. The prefect also agreed. We will make money immediately. Please inform the village immediately!

Oh my god! By the way, you should go to your son-in-law’s village and tell me, and let the in-laws prepare early, the more the better;

There are also acorns, too! Before the official notification is made, go and pick them up again. Oh, go quickly!"

The village chief was confused: "Crocodile? Who is it?"

Village chief’s wife: “Linyang Marquis!”

Village Chief: "Linyang Marquis? What's going on?"

Village chief’s wife: “Oh! The Marquis wants to collect seafood, acorn fruits!”

Village Chief: "What? Who are you talking about?"

Village chief’s wife: “Mr. Marquis!”

Village Chief: "What's going on?"

...

The two of them walked away while talking.

The house was simple, with a door between inside and outside the house and the yard was not big. Although the village chief was suppressing the sound, he was confused by the woman's words and could not control the volume.

Chu Qing and Guo Zhengbiao stared at each other with big eyes.

Suddenly, the village chief shouted from outside: "You old lady! Why are you so brave? You are so guilty when you eavesdrop on what an official says, you are a serious crime. You dare to ask others to hurry up?! It's over, it's over..."

Zhuo Yao had to go outside the door: "Okay! My marquis won't blame me. You can leave quickly. With such a loud voice, our marquis is almost terrified! Get ready for lunch!"

Chu Qing was relieved.

Fishermen on the beach make a living by the sea breeze every day, and few speak in a rough and loud voice. Even if they lower their volume, their voices are not small. Just a shock, it is easy to get a little scared without a good heart.

"Oh, I'm leaving." Chu Qing complained.

"Linyang Hou is really not arrogant at all," Guo Zhengbiao complained a little: "The people are not afraid of you!"

In fact, he wanted to say that even if he was implicated, he would lose his airs.

It’s not that you have to be an official, but that as long as you are a person, you will easily gain a better position. If you don’t keep a distance from them, they will be endless and worse.

Why do doctors in the hall seem unfathomable than fortune tellers? Just keep a distance, otherwise you will be entangled by the patient's family and don't do anything for a day.

Chu Yuan was not qualified to speak at the side, so he rolled his eyes and churned Guo Zhengbiao. After churning Guo Zhengbiao, he tried his best to Chu Qing, which meant: Come on, put on airs! He ran the money to death with the surname Guo!

Chu Qing pretended not to see it, but just picked up the topic: "Just Mr. Guo said just now, did you collect grain again before the New Year?"

Guo Zhengbiao quickly became serious. This time, Lin Yanghou was talking again. He just blamed the village chief for not being in tune with it and interrupted the entry point he had finally found.

Guo Zhengbiao said: "Xiaoguan is to tell you about this matter, not about collecting grain, but about reminding you that it is time, not time for you to come back now."

Chu Qing: "Oh? How do you say it?"

Guo Zhengbiao: "You have been missing for more than a month and the prince has not appeared. Someone has proposed to shake your title, so it is a good thing for you to come back now; but..."

Guo Zhengbiao told all about the fact that the Fourth Prince and Zheng Chunqiu were gambling on stones and offending the big merchants, the big merchants donated money but did not donate grain, the grain merchants hoarded, the prices of grain grew rapidly, and the northern grain-producing areas had to collect more grain.

Then, the country of Vos took the opportunity to attack but failed, and also said:

“It is the time to ask for money and grain. Although Vos does not need to pay tribute to food, he still has to pay tribute to one thousand Vos horses and one hundred thousand cattle and sheep;

Adding to 300,000 taels of silver and 300,000 pieces of raw silk, this is also a big deal. Grain merchants and salt merchants are at the most serious level. The court is afraid of causing chaos in the people and dare not vigorously rectify them;

Therefore, the court used tributes to exchange for food from grain merchants, so he received the Vos delegation. When the delegation came, it did not mention the tribute, but put forward the conditions first..."

Chu Qing: "What conditions?"

Guo Zhengbiao glanced at Chu Yuan and Chu Qing said it was okay.

However, seeing Guo Zhengbiao's cautious attitude, Chu Qing understood: If nothing unexpected happens, there must be an accident.

Even if Chu Yuan is driven away, Chu Yuan will not leave. The man and the woman are alone... Lin Yanghou is a woman!

Guo Zhengbiao said: "They want to discuss with you!"

Chu Qing: "With me?"

This is such a strange thing! The Ministry of Rites is so big that there is no one anymore?

Chu Qing is now a person without real power who is left behind. What should I talk to her about?

Chu Qing asked, "What are you talking about with me? I'm missing!"

Guo Zhengbiao said: "They don't believe it. They said they must see you first and then talk. They said... They said King Vos still asked to marry you!"

Chu Yuan: "I've ruined him!"

Chu Qing was also confused: "Did the court agree?"

How is this possible? Why didn’t Chu Qing get any news?

Guo Zhengbiao whispered: "This is the rumor; the people of Vos must see you. They suspected that the court did not allow you to come forward, so they only spent time in the inn;

The court had no choice but to deal with them. Although they were not used to their problems, they could not do too much;

I have a nephew of my family who works as a servant in Kyoto Inn, who is responsible for running errands to the envoys upstairs and downstairs;

The child was embarrassed by the Woth people one day and said that the toilet paper provided by the inn was not soft enough. He slapped him a few times and sent him to buy Baoqingxiang's fine cotton veil, saying that it was necessary for Baoqingxiang to produce it;

My nephew went to Shangguan to explain that his Shangguan was just a minor official. According to the court's attitude, he naturally did not want to get into trouble. He said that my nephew had not served him well and should solve the problem by himself;

My nephew had to pay for it himself. After buying it, he was about to deliver it to the bathroom, but he heard the people of Vos inside were joking;

They said that if King Vos really could get you to marry this time, they would have to wipe their farts when Bao Qingxiang’s handkerchief is sent... It was said that it was a reward from the future queen, and I enjoyed it in advance!

My nephew can understand Voss's words, not only can he listen, but also can speak, which is more authentic than a general translation, but he can't write;

He thought it was a big deal, so he sent me a message to me to be careful, because I had a relationship with you, if what the Worth people said was true, you would inevitably be in trouble;

And the people you are dating will be very difficult…”

Guo Zhengbiao stopped here.

Chu Qing understood.

The Worth people came to marry again, probably in exchange for some benefit—

For example, if you Daxuan don’t want to go to war with us, then you either give us Chu Qing, or lower the tribute standards, or don’t give Chu Qing food or something.

But Chu Qing was concerned about Chu Qing's cannons, or wanted Chu Qing to go to Vos to build cannons for them.

But no matter what, as long as the Worth people expressed their intention to marry Chu Qing, they would inevitably put Chu Qing in danger again.

Unless Chu Qing can bombard Vos to win another battle, anyone who has something to do with Chu Qing will inevitably be classified as a "co-party" of Chu Qing and will suffer from the future.
