Chapter 44 Miss Xie is so mean and mean
Chu Xi watched Cai Kun go out, then stood silently at the window looking at the dark alley.
Qingshan, the driver who had driven him during the day, reported from the side: "Master, today the rice shop of the Huangfu family in Nanyang City was robbed again. All the silver, rice, rice buckets, vehicles, and even the gate were all gone."
"What's going on over there, Xie Anfeng?"
"Everything is normal. I am sure he has not contacted anyone." Qingshan said confidently, "It is impossible for the four of us to be wrong."
After they received Huangfu Ming's order from Shizimen and something went wrong, they followed to investigate.
"Huangfu Ming suspected that the theft of the rice shop was related to Xie Anfeng. He wanted to take Third Miss Xie as his concubine in Kyoto, and all six rice shops in his mansion and Kyoto were robbed. A few days ago, he was in Ruyang City and was again plotted by the old lady, who said that Third Miss Xie was a phoenix of the sky and could make money, so she promised Third Miss Xie to him. Then, the rice shop was robbed again."
Therefore, Huangfu Ming suspected that it was Xie Anfeng's forces that robbed the Huangfu rice shop.
When Chu Xiwang listened to Qingshan's report, the appearance of Miss Xie III appeared in his mind again. She was cold, impatient, and unruly. Her temperament was simply incomparable to that of other girls in the boudoir.
How can such a person be someone's concubine?
But no matter what, she was a girl in the boudoir and had not yet reached the age of marriage. The robbery of Huangfu should have nothing to do with her.
I couldn’t figure out the details, but since Shizimen had accepted the order, I had to complete it.
Chu Xiwang said to Qingshan, "Go and find out what kind of people Xie Anfeng and his family are like."
Shizimen follows the rules, but if someone does something that is against the will of heaven and earth, he will stop them. At worst, they will die...
***
At 3:00 pm the next day, the exiles ate some cakes and rice soup and prepared to set off.
Zhou Shaoyu brought a total of 40 kilograms of raw beef, 5 kilograms of which were used to make beef sauce, 3 kilograms of which were used for curry beef, and 32 kilograms of raw beef were left.
Xie Yanyan planned to give him 16 kilograms of beef jerky.
5 kilograms of spiced beef jerky, spicy beef jerky, and spicy beef jerky were transferred from the space, and finally 1 kilogram of the more niche small chili juice beef jerky was added.
Zhou Shaoyu pinched a piece of each and stuffed it into his mouth, praising: "Even the imperial chefs in the palace are not as good as you."
"If you like it, I'll do it for you again when I have the chance."
Zhou Shaoyu was filled with joy and said, "I will return to Beijing soon. Do you have anything to tell the emperor?"
Xie Yanyan certainly knew that Zhou Shaoyu wanted to pave the way for her, help her get rid of the crime, and restore her identity step by step.
"Wait a minute, I really have something to give to Your Majesty."
Xie Yanyan asked for leave from Li Rong, saying that he wanted to make something for Prince Zhou, and would ride a horse to catch up with the team.
Li Rong would naturally give Zhou Shaoyu this face. Just for the sake of Xie Yanyan, the Goddess of Wealth, he would let her go.
Xie Xiangxiang lined up with the other prisoners. Her face was still gentle, but she was a little more silent.
【Why hasn't Prince Zhou died yet? 】
[He went to Jin and didn't encounter any attacks? ]
[Did King Xi receive the letter?]
[I must obtain the merit of following the dragon and not repeat the mistakes of my previous life]
The distance between her and Xie Yanyan was less than 50 meters, and Xie Yanyan felt all the anxiety in her heart.
Xie Yanyan suddenly raised the corner of his lips slightly.
Zhou Shaoyu was distracted by this fleeting smile and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"Someone is desperately looking forward to King Xi."
Zhou Shaoyu immediately knew who she was talking about and laughed: "Then I must tell them when I return to Kyoto."
Li Rong led the exile team and left first. Xie Anfeng was worried, so he asked Xie Ning to stay and accompany his sister.
Xie Yanyan returned to the room and took a drawing from the table and gave it to Zhou Shaoyu.
She used sketch paper and pencil, and the drawings were clear and intuitive:
"Schematic diagram of the curved plow structure."
Ask Xie Ning to drag out a basket from the room, which contains some wood and an iron plowshare.
Pointing to the blueprint, he said to Zhou Shaoyu: "Assemble it according to the blueprint."
The curved plow is not complicated, it only has a few parts, and Xie Yanyan's drawings are clear, so it is not difficult to assemble.
Zhou Shaoyu borrowed a hammer and an axe from the inn, and together with Xie Ning, they assembled the curved plow in a short while.
"I came out of Kyoto and saw farmers using straight-beam plows, which were very laborious and inefficient. After thinking about it for a long time, I came up with the idea of a curved-beam plow. A few days ago, I assembled one and gave it to farmers. Even teenagers in their teens or people in their 40s or 50s can pull it."
What she meant was that after experiments, it was definitely more than three to five times more efficient than the original straight-beam plow.
Now that we have the drawings and samples, Zhou Shaoyu will bring them to Emperor Xuanwen.
Zhou Shaoyu instinctively felt that this would definitely be a powerful tool that would have far-reaching impact and change people's livelihood.
"I will report the truth to your majesty. The curved plow is good news to the people of Daqin."
"I'm writing a letter to His Majesty. How about you take it to him for me?"
"OK."
After Xie Yanyan finished writing the letter, Xie Ning didn't say anything because he couldn't keep up with the whole process.
When did your sister invent the curved plow? When did she try it out on farmers?
My sister, you wouldn't say anything nonsense, would you? You can't say anything nonsense in front of the emperor.
"Sister..." He was a little anxious.
Xie Yanyan gave his elder brother a reassuring look: "Don't worry, the curved plow will be passed down for thousands of years, and it will completely replace the straight plow in less than three years."
Information is blocked nowadays. In her previous life, good things would take three years to promote, and it would be good if they could be kept secret for half a year. In three years, several updates could be made.
After giving the things to Zhou Shaoyu and explaining the tasks, Zhou Shaoyu asked Zhou Jin to drive the carriage to take Xie Yanyan and Xie Ning to catch up with the exile team.
Xie Yanyan was about to get in the car when he suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, there is a village in the ravine below the bandit stronghold. Did you see it?"
"Hmm? Is there a problem?" Zhou Shaoyu had someone check it out a few days ago, but found nothing abnormal. When Xie Yanyan asked this, he immediately felt that there was a problem.
"That should be a bandit base. I guess Fang's mother and daughter are there."
"Do you want them to die?"
"No, call them back. They were sent out by Old Shen and Little Shen to protect Xie Xiangxiang from disaster. They can't just die like this."
Zhou Shaoyu understood.
Miss Xie San looked really mean underneath her serious face.
After Xie Yanyan left, Zhou Shaoyu went to the county magistrate Shen Ziwen first.
Chen Ziwen has already tried the bandit case thoroughly and sorted out the stolen goods. The matter is so serious that he has ordered people to send the report to Kyoto as quickly as possible.
Zhou Shaoyu told Shen Ziwen that the village under the mountain village should be a bandit stronghold, and Shen Ziwen was shocked.
Seeing that Zhou Shaoyu was very sure, Shen Ziwen immediately sent people to the village to investigate.
He has become addicted to confiscating bandits' supplies.
These daring bandits in the small mountain village thought they had covered up well, and seeing that the government had not come to investigate them in recent days, they rode as fast as they could to write letters to Kyoto to inform King Xi.
Shen Ziwen's men found the village and captured more than 300 thieves at once, more than they had caught in the mountain village and the mountainside warehouse.
We also found women who had gone missing around Nanyang City in recent years.
Sure enough, Fang and Tingting Xie were found.
Fang and Xie Tingting were locked in the house and fed with muscle-softening powder. The mother and daughter were ruined.
When she was rescued, Tiffany Xie was already half crazy.
Fang hugged Xie Tingting and said with red eyes: "Whoever makes us feel bad for a moment, we will make her feel bad for the rest of her life."
