"Xuan Wang?"
Mrs. Li was quite emotional: "It seems that Xiao Nian was right to save him that day, and she is a person who knows how to repay kindness.
It is just like the saying, you reap what you sow. Our little Nian sowed good seeds, and he saved his life.
Ye Meizi was a little scared: "Prince Xuan came to Yizhou to provide disaster relief. Once he leaves here, will the county magistrate come to cause trouble again?
The land is a small matter, at worst we can return it to him. But what if Xiao Nian is arrested again?
Ordinary people like us have no way to deal with powerful forces."
"Don't worry, now that King Xuan has left, the county magistrate won't dare to do it anymore."
Qin Nian comforted his family: "In fact, whether the county magistrate can keep his official hat is still uncertain."
Ye Meizi sighed again: "It's better not to protect him. Wherever such people serve as officials, the people there will suffer.
Unfortunately, most officials are this type of people.”
"Let's not talk about this for now. I'm going to go to the post station tomorrow to give some strawberries to King Xuan to thank him for his help.
Uncle Geng and Geng Tian and Geng Di continued to build the greenhouse. Now it is September, and we still have to build two houses in the fields.
Aunt Geng picked strawberries, and Geng Feng went to sell them. If he was too busy in the future, he would hire Aunt Cuizhi and Aunt Suqin to help pick strawberries.
These two people work honestly and have no bad intentions.
After I deliver the strawberries to King Xuan, I'll go to the market to find Geng Feng. Let's buy some meat and make dumplings."
"Okay, whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you."
Ye Meizi's eyes were full of pity: "Our Xiao Nian has suffered a lot in this day and night."
Qin Nian also sighed: "This day and night, every family member has suffered enough, this evil feudal society."
"What? What did you say?"
Ye Meizi didn't understand what Qin Nian said and asked again.
Qin Nian laughed and said, "I said, we didn't sleep last night, so let's not work today and have a good sleep.
I will be more energetic and refreshed tomorrow morning, and then I will start working again."
Indeed, everyone is very tired, and it is necessary to have a good sleep.
Qin Nian and Mrs. Li and Ye Meizi returned to Dawa Village. Mrs. Li carried a small basket of strawberries, weighing five kilograms.
The chicks at home have hatched, and I asked Suqin to help take care of them, feeding them rice and water, which is quite troublesome.
Seeing Qin Nian coming back, Suqin was so happy that she kept chanting:
"Xiao Nian is a kind-hearted child. I said that everything would be fine, and it turned out to be fine."
Mrs. Li gave the strawberries she brought back to Suqin, but Suqin refused them:
"When the strawberries were first harvested, I was given a lot. I can't just keep taking them. I should keep them and sell them for money. Everything has its costs."
Qin Nian stuffed the small basket into Suqin's hands and said, "Aunt, this is what we produce from our fields. We can sell it for a little more than this basket. Take it home and eat it."
Suqin then took it, thanked her, and went back happily carrying the basket.
Qin Nian washed up and lay down on the kang with Mrs. Li. She was tired after almost staying up all night last night and fell into a deep sleep.
At the same time, in King Xuan’s room.
King Xuan's chief strategist Jiang Nan is giving King Xuan advice:
"Your Majesty, today's incident is a great opportunity. Your Majesty will send two people tonight to kill Qin Nian and her family.
The body was hidden as carefully as possible, but it had to be found.
Mr. Zhang is the father of the Minister of War Zhang Guohao. Relying on his son's tremendous power, he killed the woman and occupied the land.
No matter how powerful Zhang Guohao is, he can't turn the tables. Getting rid of Zhang Guohao is just around the corner."
Mo Yue and Mo Xing were both stunned, and their eyes turned to Mo Xuan at the same time, their hearts filled with fear.
The emperor of the time had not yet appointed a crown prince, and the five princes in the court were vying for the throne. They all tried to win over court officials and increase their own power.
The strongest is the eldest prince Mo Ding, and slightly weaker than the eldest prince is the third prince Mo Xuan.
Zhang Guohao is the eldest prince's most capable courtier. Toppling him is equivalent to cutting off one of the eldest prince's arms.
Compared with the throne, the life of a little girl like Qin Nian is really insignificant.
Because of this, Mo Yue and Mo Xing were a little worried, especially Mo Yue, whose heart had never beaten so fast.
He is King Xuan's most capable guard and his most trusted confidant. What should he do if King Xuan asks him to kill Qin Nian?
Mo Yue couldn't answer this question.
Mo Xuan shook his head slightly: "Although toppling Zhang Guohao is something I have always looked forward to, it is not advisable to use the lives of innocent civilians as the price.
This king will not do that."
Mo Yue and Mo Xing immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Qin Nian didn't have much interaction with them, but they understood that she was a kind girl.
Jiang Nan insisted on his approach: "Your Majesty, if you want to do great things, you must not be too particular about small matters. But there are only a few commoners, so you should make use of them.
If the prince gives up such a good opportunity because of soft-heartedness and fails to get rid of Zhang Guohao this time, it will be difficult to find such an opportunity next time.
One day, when Zhang Guohao helps the eldest prince and kills the prince, he will definitely not be soft-hearted.
By that time, it will be too late for the prince to regret. "
Mo Xuan looked at Jiang Nan, “I was born in the imperial palace and have seen countless beauties.
When he grew up, he set up a mansion outside, and the beauties in the mansion were as colorful as butterflies.
However, no woman can occupy my heart like Qin Nian.
I like her, and because I like her, I don’t want to hurt her, not to mention that she saved my life.
From now on, don’t say anything like using her and her family’s lives as the price for killing Zhang Guohao.”
“Your Highness, Qin Nian is just a country girl, and it is the doctor’s duty to help you sew up your wounds.
The prince cannot ruin his great cause just because he is grateful to her and likes her.
When the great event is accomplished, the prince can have any beautiful woman he wants, so why bother with a wild girl? "
“That’s enough!”
King Xuan was really angry. He looked around and said, "I solemnly say this once, Qin Nian is the woman I like.
Not only do I like her, I also respect her very much. From now on, none of you are allowed to speak disrespectfully to Miss Qin."
"yes."
Everyone answered in unison.
"This king is a little tired, you all should leave."
King Xuan was angry and looked very unhappy. He asked everyone to leave.
After coming out of King Xuan's room, Jiang Nan still didn't give up, he called out to Mo Yue.
"What's the matter, sir?"
Jiang Nan said: "I am the first counselor of the Xuanwang Mansion, and the general is the first warrior beside the Xuanwang. You and I should contribute to the great cause of the Xuanwang, right?"
Mo Yue was very alert: "What do you want to say, sir?"
"Well, tonight you and Mo Xing go to Dawa Village and take that Miss Qin—"
Jiang Nan made a beheading gesture and continued:
“What the Xuan King has to do is a big thing, so he can’t be soft-hearted, and he can’t be emotional, especially towards a country girl like Qin Nian.
She is of no help to King Xuan. King Xuan used her to kill Zhang Guohao. Qin Nian must be eliminated, otherwise she will become a burden to King Xuan. "
Mo Yue's face darkened, "Sir, what did the prince just order? Are you trying to disobey him?
The prince can't control you anymore?"
