Chapter 1248: Grain Caravan Enters Beijing

Seven days later, when people all over the country were busy with the autumn harvest, the grain convoys from the Far North and Qingzhou Prefecture had already rushed to the capital.

There was also a motorhome following, and Qin Chuchu not only brought Han Chong but also Han Xing.

Although this was not the first time he went out, Han Xing was still very happy.

Han Yun was even more excited. He jumped and danced while holding his brother's hand. He loved riding in a car the most.

At this moment in the palace, Concubine Jing was very busy and got up early in the morning to start making preparations.

The small kitchen was filled with food alone, but that wasn't enough, so I made another list.

"Lao Jiang, you still have to leave the palace and prepare all these things."

I feel so happy when I think that I will soon see my lovely grandson.

I wish I could buy all the good things in the capital.

"Miss, our small kitchen is full!"

Nanny Jiang looked at the list in her hand. If she bought all of them, the yard would probably be full of them.

I know that the lady is happy, but I feel that there is no need for this at all.

No matter what you want to eat, you can go out and buy it at any time, and it’s all fresh.

After hearing what Lao Jiang said, Concubine Jing realized that she had bought a lot of things in the past two days.

"Then let's do it this way for now!"

After saying that, he looked at the yard outside again. He hadn't seen his grandson for so long and didn't know how old he had grown.

I really want to see him right now. These two days have been too long.

On the other side, in the imperial study, the emperor was looking at the memorials. Although nothing could be seen on his face, he was quite expectant in his heart.

I haven't seen my dear grandson for a long time, and I miss him so much. When I left the Far North, he was still such a small thing. I wonder how big he has grown now. I am looking forward to seeing him sooner.

Even Eunuch Li standing by was grinning from time to time.

Ever since he learned that Prince Chen was going to bring back the eldest grandson, the emperor has been smiling.

No wonder, the emperor only has this one grandson now, it would be strange if he didn't want him.

Compared to the good mood of the Emperor and Concubine Jing, the Queen's mood was not so good.

Ever since I heard that the little beast was going to bring that brat back, I've been feeling upset.

Whenever I think of the emperor's happy look at the little brat, I feel so angry.

In addition, that little beast has handed over a lot of grain this year, and I think the emperor will be even happier.

Because they were in a bad mood for the past two days, the palace maids dared not make a sound and the atmosphere was very depressing.

But it was different for the other palaces. When they heard that Prince Chen was coming back with the eldest grandson,

They all ran to Concubine Jing's courtyard to congratulate her in advance, saying that her son was capable and had given birth to an imperial grandson. Anyone with a little common sense knew what to do.

Although she knew they were flattering her, Concubine Jing was still willing to listen.

What's more, I think what they said is right. My son is very capable, and my grandson will also be a good one in the future.

Two days passed quickly, even though we heard that the convoy would arrive by noon.

But the emperor and Concubine Jing still left the palace early in the morning and went to the warehouse to wait.

I thought that since food had been delivered once last year, the people who had seen it would not come again.

But when they walked out of the palace, they were shocked by the people on both sides of the street. They never expected there would be so many people.

It was at least a dozen miles away from the national treasury. If it weren't for the imperial army maintaining order, the entire road would have been blocked by the people.

Although many people have visited last year, when they heard that this year's fleet is several times larger than last year, they still want to come again to have a look.

Looking at so many people in front of her, Concubine Jing seemed particularly excited.

When they arrived at the national treasury, they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.

There were people everywhere I looked, some of them even lying on trees.

When I thought that these people were here to see my son and grandson, I felt even happier.

The emperor was in a good mood. Seeing that it was still early, he and a group of ministers went into the treasury to inspect it.

After this inspection, I feel better.

At this time of year every year, the treasury is already empty, but now there are still millions of dan.

Now Chen'er has delivered more grain, and it is several million pounds more than last year, plus the tax grain handed over from all over the country.

Even if the national treasury is not full, it is almost full. Now we don’t have to worry about the soldiers not having enough to eat. Even if a war breaks out, we don’t have to go around looking for food.

It feels so good to have food in hand and not be worried!

Even the ministers had happy expressions on their faces. For many years, the national treasury had been short of food.

Now we can actually have food reserves, which was unimaginable in the past.

After this round, everyone felt very emotional and their impression of King Chen improved a bit.

Only Marquis Yongning and Han Mulei had frowns on their brows.

After following the emperor around, I felt a lot of emotion in my heart, but more of a sense of loss.

Now the gap between them and King Chen is getting bigger and bigger, it can be said that there is no comparison.

Even though he was unwilling, he could only endure it. Now he was almost at the end of his rope and really didn't dare to take any action.

The only thing I can do now is to conserve my energy and wait until I am able to compete with Han Muchen.

Just as everyone was discussing excitedly, the signalman who went out to inquire about the news ran back.

"Your Majesty, Prince Chen's convoy has arrived in Beijing!"

"Oh, okay." The emperor nodded excitedly.

Before he could say anything, General Cheng beside him started gesturing.

"The Morning King's convoy is coming soon, hurry up and get someone to maintain order!"

He gestured to the director of the Imperial City Bureau, and seeing that the motorcade was approaching, he had to quickly maintain order among the people to avoid anyone getting hurt.

When the people heard that the convoy was coming, they became agitated, but still retreated obediently.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the direction the convoy was coming from, as if they were afraid of missing a glance.

When the long convoy appeared in everyone's sight, everyone was excited.

"Here they come, King Chen and the others are back!"

The crowd shouted excitedly, and everyone looked at him with joy.

Even the emperor and Concubine Jing were laughing with their mouths open.

Although it was far away, I could still see that Chen'er's fleet this year was much larger than last year's.

Judging by eye, there are at least three or four times more people. Looking at the endless queue, it’s so impressive.

Just as everyone was looking forward to it, the convoy slowly came up and when they saw the strange car in front.

The eyes of all the ministers lit up.

“………………”

I think this should be a motorhome. It looks really nice.

Previously, at the morning court, I heard the emperor speak so highly of the RV, and I have been thinking about it all the time.

I'm curious what it would be like to put a bed in the car.

Even the emperor looked curious. Although his son mentioned the RV in the letter, he had never seen the real one, so he was quite curious.

Under everyone's gaze, the door of the RV opened.

A milk ball appeared in front of everyone.

While everyone was still in a daze, Concubine Jing cried out in surprise.

"Oh! My dear grandson!"
