Chapter 750: Setting up the trap
Seeing this, the little fat girl couldn't help but want to laugh, and the little hair on her head kept shaking.
Hehe, they deserved it.
Let these two people harm her people!
Now let them feel for themselves, what it means to not do to others what you don't want others to do to you!
When Xiao Nuobao was happy, his eyes curved into crescents, sweet and cute, and Mu Yihan's expression was warmed.
But at the moment, Xiao Nuobao didn't plan to freeze these two to death.
After all, this little suffering now is just an appetizer, and the real drama is still to come!
So after a while, seeing that the two people outside the hall were about to give up, Xiao Nuobao shook his little hands and snorted, "Daddy, stop playing, let them in."
Since the little "Yan Wang" had agreed, Mu Yihan also raised his eyes, "Wu Que, order the envoy to come in."
Fengjian and Ju Shi heard it, and hurriedly breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurried to move into the hall.
However, their legs had long been frozen and numb, and now they could hardly even lift their feet.
Wu Que shook his head mockingly, and then called four little eunuchs to carry the two into the hall.
When their frozen bodies finally touched the warmth in the palace, Fengjian and Ammonite almost burst into tears. They immediately shivered and rubbed their hands vigorously, no longer daring to think about controlling the Nanji Kingdom.
"The foreign envoy has seen... the king, the king's master."
"And also the Princess Fuxing." They both sniffed their noses and finally straightened their tongues.
It was only then that Mu Yihan raised his emotionless eyes and gave them a look.
He looked down upon the world as if he was staring at an ant, and said jokingly, "Two foreign envoys, why can't you straighten your backs? Is it because it's too hot in my palace? How about I turn off the ground dragon for you?"
Fengjian and Ammonite shook their heads hastily, and had to endure the frostbite on their bodies and straighten their backs.
At this time, Mu Yihan said, "Okay, let's get straight to the point. You two also know why I agreed to the marriage this time, right?"
Fengjian relaxed his breath and nodded hurriedly, "Of course the foreign envoys understand. Right now, Nanji is suffering from a cotton shortage, so as long as this marriage can be successful, my king is willing to give out 300,000 kilograms of the best white cotton as a gift to help you solve your urgent needs."
300,000 kilograms?
Little Nuobao's face drooped, and this really made people laugh.
She shook her little finger and interrupted, "If you want to make the marriage happen, you must show your sincerity. This princess wants you to give 30 million catties of cotton, not even a catty less."
Feng Jian had expected that it would be too little, and had already prepared to add a few hundred thousand catties.
But he didn't expect that Xiao Nuobao would open his mouth and ask for 30 million catties!
He thought it was nonsense and said anxiously, "Princess, you are joking."
Ammonite was more tactful and pretended to be helpless to smooth things over, "Our country is small and there are not many cotton fields. We have already gathered the strength of all parties to produce 300,000 catties. Please forgive me, Princess, and don't add more." But
Xiao Nuobao shrugged and blocked back, "It doesn't matter if the cotton production is not enough. You can use silver to help us go to foreign countries to buy. As long as you can come up with silver for 30 million catties of cotton, this marriage can be done."
Fengjian was even more shocked.
Such a large amount of silver is equivalent to the autumn tax of Japan for a year.
Xiao Nuobao pouted deliberately, "Oh, it's just 30 million kilograms of cotton for silver. I just want to test your sincerity. Can't you come up with it? It seems that the rumors are true. Japan is really poor and small. I heard that the palace of the King of Japan is not as big as my toilet."
As soon as these words came out, the eunuchs in the hall couldn't hold back and laughed.
Wu Que was even more amused. Don't say, such weird words, coming out of the little princess's mouth, why do they sound so powerful.
And Fengjian's face turned pale.
It's about the face of his royal family, how can it be trampled under the feet of a little girl.
So he insisted, "What are you talking about, my prince and princess? Of course my king can afford the silver for a mere 30 million kilograms of cotton, but..."
"Oh? You can afford it but you are unwilling to pay. That's your royal family. You are not sincerely proposing marriage?" The little fat girl grabbed the topic and questioned with her arms folded .
Mu Yihan also raised his eyelids and stared coldly at Fengjian and Ammonite.
The two were choked for a moment, and they felt like something was stuck in their throats. They stammered and didn't know what to say.
Seeing this, Mu Yihan raised his big hand and snorted coldly, "It seems that the two foreign envoys still need to discuss it again. Wu Que, take them down to rest, and call them back for questioning tomorrow."
Hearing this, Fengjian and Ammonite breathed a sigh of relief.
So they hurriedly saluted and followed Wu Que to retreat.
Wu Que led them through the Yu Garden and arranged a side hall by the lake for them to stay temporarily in the palace.
The two had suffered for almost half a day, and after returning home, they had to soak their feet in hot water, drink ginger soup, and then wrap themselves in a quilt and go to sleep.
When Feng Jian woke up again, he had recovered a lot.
He saw that it was getting late and it should be time for dinner, but no one came to serve food, so he had to go out to check by himself.
At this time, dusk was deep.
A layer of thin mist rose from the small lake outside the Yu Garden, making it hazy.
Feng Jian was not familiar with the way in the palace. After walking a few steps, he saw two little eunuchs and wanted to go up and ask them.
However, the two eunuchs squatting by the lake feeding the fish seemed not to notice him, and were chatting in a moderate voice.
"The princess's third brother, Mr. Jiang, has been away for almost a month. I wonder when he can bring back the new rice seedlings for us to see?" One of the eunuchs was very excited, shaking his head.
The other one glanced behind him and interrupted hurriedly, "Hey, this is our top secret of Nanji. Speak softly. If others hear it and spread it, especially to foreign countries, it will be bad."
Fengjian stopped immediately after hearing this, and quickly hid behind a tree, raised his ears and eavesdropped.
What secret?
It can't be spread outside, so he has to listen!
Soon, another eunuch shouted again, "This place is remote, where are the others? I heard that the new rice seedlings this time are the result of crossbreeding of several varieties. As long as Uncle brings the rice seedlings back from the south, the grain production can increase tenfold, and then the people of Nan Ji will never have to worry about having enough food to eat!"
"Food is the first necessity of the people. By then, not to mention ourselves, even the surrounding countries will have to live by our wishes."
Feng Jian hid behind the tree and heard all of this clearly, his eyes widened.
What? The Nan Ji Kingdom actually discovered such a powerful rice seedling? !
You know, whoever gets the food gets the world.
If they can also get this new rice seedling, it will be a hundred times more important than any plan they are making now!
