Bringing the courtyard through [delicate] lady killed like crazy

Chapter 149 Protecting Cloud City

The sun is clear and the breeze is warm.

The ministers walked out of the imperial study and returned to their own offices.

Everyone gathered in groups of three or four, but Censor Li was still alone, and everyone stayed away from him.

Today's Imperial Study meeting.

Although Emperor Qing did not give any order on the spot, the important ministers probably had an idea in their minds that the Li Jiu clan's trip to Yuncheng was almost certain.

Judging from Emperor Qing’s expression, it was obvious that he was persuaded.

As for the departure, I guess we will know tomorrow morning...

As for the two ministers, well, they were the fastest runners.

From time to time, there were sounds coming.

The Minister of Revenue walked quickly while staring at the sleeve of the Minister of Works. "Sir, have you memorized what's on the blueprint?"

The Minister of Industry was furious: "What do you care? Who told you to learn from me? If it weren't for your death, I would have gone back and worked harder, maybe I could have passed, humph!"

He flicked his sleeves and quickened his pace.

"Sir, please don't be angry. It's not like we don't have a chance. If we can't understand the things on the drawings, maybe we still have a chance, right?" The Minister of Revenue trotted over, putting on a fake smile and secretly offering advice.

"Tsk! If you can't figure it out, why don't you try and see if His Majesty will change someone else to head the Ministry of Revenue!"

Although he didn't know what the emperor gave to the Ministry of Revenue.

However, the one from the Ministry of Industry must be completed as soon as possible, as it is a device to be used in the reservoir to facilitate water extraction.

Thinking of this, the Minister of Industry's heartbeat quickened a bit. Why not make a model of the waterwheel for His Majesty first...

After all, if the object is too large, it will be inconvenient to transport.

Working overtime, we must finish it as soon as possible...

Just as the people behind him were about to come up to inquire about the news, the Minister of Works quickly slipped away.

Crowd:…

When I turned around again, I found that the Minister of Revenue was gone.

……

At the same time, an urgent letter was sent to Yuncheng at full speed.

……

Green is all over the mountains and the plains are white and full of rivers, and the sound of Zigui is raining like smoke.

There are few idle people in the countryside in April. People pick silkworms and plant fields.

……

April in Yuncheng is a busy month. Every household closes the door, carries their burdens and carries their hoes.

Concentrate on planting "sweet potatoes" in the fields.

Several reservoirs in the fields outside the city have been completed through the joint efforts of everyone working day and night.

According to the county lord's request, everyone dug the reservoir larger and deeper, and surrounded it with cement embankments, making it extremely solid.

After all, hard work pays off. Their reservoir, like the spiral well in the city, began to bubble up water from underground the day after its completion.

Now, they can finally start spring ploughing.

The sun is still shining brightly, and the people's heads are burning with the sun.

Everyone wore straw hats and sweated profusely, but they did not stop what they were doing.

It is really.

He thought the new crop "sweet potato" cultivated by the county princess was too delicate.

Look up at the sun above your head, hey...

Many people even wondered in their hearts, the sun could melt people, so how could these tender green seedlings survive?

Can it bear fruit that can fill your stomach?

As for what the county lord said about the yield of 5000 kilograms per mu, they didn't even dare to think about it.

They have been farming for generations and have never heard of planting crops in late April.

But the county lord is indeed a person who works miracles.

Everyone kept moving their hands, but their brows were all furrowed.

Another reason is that the fourth prince ordered everyone to plant these sweet potato seedlings.

Each family only left a small amount of vegetable land, saying that there were new types of vegetable seeds.

Hey……

Someone from an unknown family sighed again.

Although they were grateful to the county lord, did they really have to use the entire city's land to conduct experiments on the county lord?

I have a headache...

Some are worried, while others are giving up.

Since it was an order issued by the current prince, could it be that even if the seedlings died and the people had no harvest, they would still starve to death?

If that's the case, just think of it as returning this worthless life to the county lord. After all, they were all saved by the county lord.

Some are filled with joy.

As an old county magistrate, his family’s fields were not only large in area, but also in a good location. There just happened to be a reservoir not far from their fields.

Except Yun Yingjie, everyone in the family was busy working in the fields.

The little girl rolled up her trouser legs, wore a big straw hat on her head, and trotted between the ridges of the field with the sweet potato seedlings carefully in her arms.

A gentle voice of a woman came from behind: "Slow down, don't fall."

"I got it, Mom. I'll put a bag of sweet potato seedlings at intervals so that we don't have to run back and forth." Without even looking back, the little girl carefully placed the seedlings in a ditch in the field.

She asked the Fairy Sister, and she said that the seedlings were not afraid of the sun, so as long as they acted quickly and planted them in the soil as soon as possible, everything would be fine.

The fairy sister is very powerful. She is their family’s savior, the kind who can snatch people from the underworld.

What she said must be right!

"Dad, the steps going down to the reservoir are steep, you have to be careful. Take a rest if you are tired. Don't be stubborn." When the little girl turned around and saw her dad carrying another load of water over, she warned him in a crisp voice.

Daddy just recovered from a serious illness, and she was always worried about him.

The woman looked up at the sound and saw the tall man who had reached the edge of the field. She chuckled, "Did you hear my daughter's instructions? I can hardly keep up with your speed in watering the plants. Come and help me plant a ridge."

The man grinned and said honestly, "I heard it, I heard it, I'll come."

"Yes, Dashan, you are carrying water too fast. If I keep following you, my calves will cramp. Let's take a break."

Behind the man, a tall and thin man quickly put down the burden on his shoulders and sat down on the ground.

He raised his hand and pulled down the hem of his shirt tied at his belt to fan himself. He said he couldn't do it anymore, but there was a smile on his face and he didn't breathe a breath.

Dashan also put down his burden and sat down next to the man. He smiled and said to the woman, "Please wait a moment, madam. I will come after I take a rest."

"Hey, no hurry, take a rest first."

The woman continued her work, burying the roots of the tender green seedlings in the holes she had dug in advance, and then covered them with soft soil...

……

"Dashan, the county magistrate's office is recruiting soldiers to defend the city. Are you going?" The man sitting on the ground, with his hands behind his back on the thick ground, looked up into the distance, and spoke lightly.

"Go!" Unlike the men with their legs spread out in a casual manner, Dashan sat upright with a faint smile in his eyes, looking at his wife and daughter who were busy working in the fields.

"What about you?" Dashan turned and looked at the man beside him.

They had worked together in the county magistrate's office before, but were replaced after the old county magistrate, his father-in-law, retired.

The replacement process was not pleasant, and they vowed never to set foot in the County Magistrate's Mansion again.

However, they still went there when Yuncheng was in trouble, and later became the group most seriously infected.

Almost died!

The man let out a long breath, turned his head and looked at a white shadow in the distance on the other side. After a while, he said, "I'm going too. I'll spend the rest of my life protecting Yuncheng!"

He raised his hand and touched his lower lip, looking at the white shadow gradually approaching in the distance.

The girl sitting there pried open their lips one by one that night and pulled them back from the gates of hell.

Dashan followed his brother's gaze and saw the woman riding a white wolf and patrolling the fields in the distance.

If it weren't for her, their family might only have their daughter left...
