"If you don't agree to the one hundred taels, then leave. Lord Zhang is here. If you dare to cause trouble in Huojia Village again, don't blame us villagers for being harsh."

The village head would not tolerate them.

The one hundred taels was what Luo Mingkuan left behind, and he had the final say. He couldn't make the final decision on anything above that.

Since they refuse to accept my toast, don't blame him for using force later because he will not show any mercy when the time comes.

"you……"

Sun Meixue was about to curse the village head when Luo Minghu stopped her.

Even though he didn't have five hundred taels, a hundred would be enough for them to live on for a while. He couldn't let the duck that was in his mouth fly away. He agreed first, and when the silver ran out, he would come back to his parents. He would still let them control him.

Kong Meixue felt that Luo Minghu's words were right, so she stopped objecting.

"Okay, we agree, one hundred taels is one hundred taels!"

Luo Minghu said.

Magistrate Zhang began to write the letter of severance of the relationship in four copies.

Luo Minghu and Luo Hu each received a copy, the village head received a copy, and Magistrate Zhang received a copy. The letter of severance stated that if Luo Minghu and Kong Meixue caused trouble again, or asked Luo Hu or Wang Yumei for money again, they would be imprisoned for a year. Magistrate Zhang didn't explicitly mention this, and Luo Minghu and Kong Meixue didn't read or ask; they were solely focused on getting the money.

The village head went back and brought back one hundred taels of silver, which was left by Luo Mingkuan.

Luo Minghu and Kong Meixue got the silver and took their daughter to the provincial capital for a good meal.

When Magistrate Zhang saw that the matter was settled, he took the constable back to the government office.

The village head asked Luo Hu and Wang Yumei to enter Huojia Village and send them to Gao's house.

After the housekeeper settled Luo Hu and Wang Yumei, he had someone prepare a carriage and sent two guards to take them to the capital to find Luo Mingkuan.

In order to avoid any further complications, the housekeeper decided to send them away early tomorrow morning.

The next day, the housekeeper sent two guards to escort Luo Minghu back to Leshan Village. He took out the silver and banknotes left to him by Luo Mingkuan and left quietly without alerting the villagers.

He returned to Huojia Village, took his wife Wang Yumei with him, said goodbye to the villagers of Huojia Village, and took a carriage to the capital. This time, they had no worries, and their youngest son was not worth their heart and soul.

Luo Minghu and Kong Meixue, who were still dreaming about the Spring and Autumn Period in the inn, had a good sleep last night after eating and drinking to their heart's content.

They thought that if he didn't have money in the future, he could go to his parents, cry and make a fuss, and then he would get the money. What they didn't know was that his parents had already gone to the capital and no longer cared about him.

Not long after, when they tried to collect the silver, they were arrested by Magistrate Zhang and imprisoned for a year before being released. After their release, they were expelled from Taizhou and sent back to their hometown. Their daughter, Luo Zilan, was sent to Huojia Village and then raised in the Gao Mansion for a while before being sent to the capital to be raised by Luo Hu and Wang Yumei (this will be discussed later).

The day of departure arrived. Gao Zhijun led Huo Jinqian, Mo Xue, Cang Lang, Tian Lang, Po Lang, Qing Long and ten thousand soldiers to Goryeo. Of course, Panda also set off with her.

Murong Yuanbo set out for the Western Regions with his deputy general and eldest son. He brought 50,000 soldiers, a cartload of grenades, ten crossbows, and a cannon.

The prince, along with a few guards and 50,000 soldiers, went to Polodan. They also set out with carts of grenades, ten crossbows, and a cannon.

The Protector General led 10,000 soldiers to Tatar, and they also pulled carts of grenades and ten-barrel crossbows, and of course a cannon.

If the Tatars dare not admit their mistake, they will be dealt with severely by grenades.

Gao Zhijun and Huo Jinqian rode in a carriage, Mo Xue and Qinglong drove the carriage, and Canglang, Tianlang and Polang rode horses on both sides to protect them.

The panda also followed. Sometimes it went into the mountains to catch prey and have fun, and sometimes it came out to play with Gao Zhijun.

"Jinqian, this trip to Goryeo is a long one. I don't know what dangers may occur. Are you afraid?"

Gao Zhijun asked Huo Jinqian.

She always felt that the journey was not peaceful, as if some conspiracy was brewing.

"Don't be afraid. With you by my side, I'm not afraid of anything."

Huo Jinqian said.

"You're getting better and better at talking, your mouth seems to be coated with honey."

Gao Zhijun felt that since she agreed to marry him, he had been as clingy as candy beans. He also said sweet things from time to time, which almost made her unable to bear it.

“Would you like to give it a try?”

Huo Jinqian shamelessly reached out to Gao Zhijun and asked for a kiss.

“Shameless!”

After saying this, Gao Zhijun glared at him, pushed him away, and then closed her eyes to rest.

Think about it, when she arrived in Goryeo and took over two cities, how should she manage them?

Since she was the city lord, the officials there had to be her own people. However, there weren't many people she could trust and use. Canglang, the others, definitely had to stay by her side.

It would be better to give a city to the eldest brother and let him be the city lord. He should be able to do it.

She was definitely the lord of the other city, so who should she entrust to help her manage it? Canglang was the best candidate, but she needed him to be by her side to do things and protect her.

The eldest brother of the Huo family couldn't do it, he didn't have the ability. The Sun family couldn't do it either, so the only option was her mother's family.

The eldest brother will be the city lord, but the second brother is not capable. Father can be the city lord, but he cannot be the city lord. She has an eldest brother as the city lord, so her father must stay in the capital, under the emperor's nose, so that he can be at ease and easy to control.

Emperors have always been suspicious.

He didn't even trust his own brothers and sons, let alone a princess from another family.

If a minister whispered a few provocative words in his ear, he would definitely become suspicious. So when she heard that the emperor gave her two cities, she was still very surprised.

Since she has two cities, she must build it into an iron cage so that no one can capture it.

If the emperor becomes suspicious of her and wants to deal with her in the future, she will live in there with her family.

With her ability, it is not difficult to defend two cities.

If they wanted to attack, we would use cannons and grenades to deal with them.

In fact, the cannons she currently builds have relatively poor lethality. She has blueprints for the most advanced cannons.

Don't say that she is judging others by her own standards. She is also leaving a way out for herself.
