Chapter 320 Uncle Yun wants to join the Yunheng Army
Shen Yunyue laughed heartily. "Can you, the emperor of your country, not be so stingy? Do you know how many beauties you have in your harem? How much money does it cost?"
Thinking of this, the queen rubbed her chest with heartache.
He approached Shen Yunyue and said, "I feel so bad, but I have to support those women."
"No, I'll disband all the women in the harem as soon as I get back."
Shen Yunyue acted as if she was saying, "You are a fool. If you want to support someone, then support the little brother you like."
Who keeps a few same-sex women in the harem and provides them with good food and drink?
I don't have that kind of hobby.
Shen Yunyue found the Empress to be a very kind person, and it was easy to become close friends with such a girl. After all, they were two hostile countries, so she remained reserved in her dealings with both the Empress and the Imperial Master.
The Queen was very interested in potato cultivation in Baijia Village.
"Shen Yunyue, I have something to discuss with you. Our Nanli Kingdom is willing to pay you for your potato cultivation method. I ate the potatoes from your Baijia Village.
They're tastier than ours, with higher yields and larger sizes." The Queen observed Shen Yunyue's expression as she spoke.
"How do you want to buy our planting method?"
Shen Yunyue had no intention of keeping it to herself, so it would be even better if she could make more money from it.
"How about twenty thousand taels of silver?"
Shen Yunyue shook her head. "One hundred thousand taels of silver, plus two thousand of your unique fruit trees."
The climate in Nanli Kingdom is hot, especially in the south.
The fruits from those places can also be transplanted to some places in Da Zhou, and it is also good to plant them in space.
The Queen frowned distressedly. One hundred thousand taels of silver to buy a potato planting method?
Shen Yunyue chuckled nonchalantly:
"You don't have to buy them. We'll sell you the potatoes we harvest later. They'll only cost two coppers a pound."
The Queen made some calculations in her mind.
The land of Nanli Kingdom is barren, and the country has to rely on invading other countries to have enough food.
If the people of one's own country grow enough food.
You don't have to be a bandit.
"Okay, let's do as you say. But I need to send a secret message to my confidant in the capital, and then my confidant in the capital will send someone to come."
The Queen wanted Nanliguo's confidant to issue an edict in the name of the Emperor.
He came to Baijia Village to discuss potato planting with Shen Yunyue, and sent people to learn potato planting methods.
She knew the key lay in the potato variety and the way the seedlings were raised.
There was nothing she could do if the people in Baijia Village refused to teach her and Shen Yunyue refused to give her potato seeds.
"Okay, I'll do as you say. But to show my sincerity, I need you to pay a deposit first."
Queen: .... "Does our relationship require a deposit?"
"Yes, my Xuan Heng said: When dealing with people from the Southern Li Kingdom, we can't be too martial. We have learned from past experiences that they are all people without martial ethics."
After saying that.
Shen Yunyue smiled and left.
The queen was left in a state of confusion.
Is the Kingdom of Nanli so dishonest among its neighboring countries?
Shen Yunyue returned to the house and wrote a secret letter to Fu Xuanheng. She told Fu Xuanheng her suspicions and sat at the desk, wondering why Master Yun needed so many herbs.
Suddenly, I thought of the injured man in black robe.
Shen Yunyue smiled lightly, fearing that Master Yun’s plan would fail this time.
No herbal medicine could heal the black-robed man's wounds.
Uncle Yun came outside.
He knocked on the door gently, "Yunyue, I have something to talk to you about."
Shen Yunyue put the secret letter she had written into the book, stood up and opened the door of the study.
"Uncle Ba, come in and do it."
Uncle Yun Ba came in and opened the door of the study. An Yi stood at the door of the study, and Monkey went to bring in a cup of tea.
"I heard from your seventh uncle that your seventh aunt is ill. Is it really serious?"
Shen Yunyue nodded.
"Um."
Uncle Yun tightened his grip, "Yun Yue, I want to serve in the Yun Heng Corps. I'm all alone, and I don't know what will happen in the future."
"I have to do something in my life. I've thought about it and maybe military life is for me."
"I'm really happy to be training with Ma Li's men these days."
Shen Yunyue didn't expect that Uncle Yun Ba wanted to go to Yun Heng's Legion.
In the past, she would have agreed without hesitation.
Only now...
"Eighth Uncle. Logically, you should be sent to the Yunheng Army, but someone from the Southern Li Kingdom is coming soon. We don't have a suitable man at home to receive them. Could you please give me some time, Uncle?"
Shen Yunyue did not agree directly.
Wait until the people of Nanli Kingdom receive the secret letter and send someone over.
She also figured out what happened to Master Yun. Did Uncle Yun and the others know about it?
If a quarrel breaks out, what will they choose?
Uncle Yun’s frown relaxed.
"What brings the people from Nanli Kingdom here?"
Shen Yunyue told him the cause of the incident and explained, "I wanted to sell the method only for the benefit of the people of the world. I didn't want these people to live in dire straits."
"If the Nanli Kingdom breaks its promise in the future, my Yunheng Army will have the confidence to defeat them."
Uncle Yun Ba didn't expect Shen Yunyue to think so much.
"Yunyue, you're right. I'll be staying in Baijia Village for now. If anything comes up, let me handle it."
"Thank you, Uncle Eight." Shen Yunyue smiled faintly.
Uncle Yun Ba looked down at the cup in his hand, "Yun Yue. I wish I could do something for you."
At the door.
Mu Ya walked in.
She didn't look at Uncle Yun as she used to.
He just came to Shen Yunyue's side quietly, "Young Madam. Yunheng Teahouse sent someone to deliver a letter saying that the teahouse business is booming.
People who come here to rest and drink tea love to listen to storytelling. Shopkeeper Yu means, "Are there any more stories?"
"Yes. Tell the person who came to deliver it in two days."
"yes."
Mu Ya lowered her head and turned away.
Uncle Yun just glanced indifferently in the direction where Mu Ya left.
Shen Yunyue caught Uncle Yun's gaze and asked, "Uncle, how is Miss Mu Ya?"
"very good."
"Uncle Eight, do you have any thoughts about getting married?" Shen Yunyue remembered that Mu Ya liked Uncle Yun.
Uncle Yun placed the cup on the table, looking embarrassed. It always felt awkward to talk about personal matters with a junior.
He pondered for a moment, thinking about his actual situation.
"Yunyue. Why would I want to start a family like this? I have no intention of starting a family."
"Seventh Uncle, Ninth Uncle, and even Uncle Ningyuan have all started families. Why is Eighth Uncle belittling himself? He is a handsome man, no worse than anyone else."
Uncle Yun Ba remembered Mu Ya’s hug.
His eyes darkened, "What have you heard?"
"I haven't heard about it. I just asked when I saw it. Mu Ya didn't tell me much." Shen Yunyue saw through Uncle Yun's thoughts and hurriedly explained.
Uncle Yun remained silent.
The air suddenly became quiet, and he stood up and said:
"I'm going to the Yunheng Legion first."
"Eighth Uncle, I heard that my eldest uncle is looking for various herbs to treat difficult and complicated diseases." Shen Yunyue suddenly said.
Uncle Yun Ba stopped.
Puzzled:
"Aren't you taking care of his body?"
"Yeah. I heard Yun Yi say that. Maybe it was a friend of his." Shen Yunyue naturally wouldn't say that Mu Xiu Jin heard it by accident. She only said that it was Yun Yi who said it.
Uncle Yun nodded, but still explained:
"Impossible, uncle has no friends here. He is weak and doesn't allow people to have too much contact with him when he stays in Yunjiazhuang."
"He does go to a nearby temple every year and stays there for a long time. He has a good relationship with the head monk there."
Temple nearby?
Shen Yunyue had never heard of it. Not many people in Baijia Village went to the temple.
They all went to the land temple in the village below.
"Where is the temple?"
"It's right in the upper reaches of the Cang River. It's also a very ancient Buddhist temple." Uncle Yun seldom went there. He thought that he had killed people all his life and was afraid of polluting the pure land of Buddhism.
"My mother has copied a lot of scriptures recently. I could take her to a temple and offer the copied scriptures there. It would also be a good opportunity to connect with the general public."
"Then you can take Madam Shen there. The monk Liao Yuanda in the temple is a highly accomplished monk."
After Uncle Yun left.
Shen Yunyue breathed a sigh of relief.
She vaguely felt that Uncle Yun didn't know about Master Yun's affairs, so just in case, she naturally waited for Fu Xuanheng's reply.
But, go to the temple to find out?
Shen Yunyue thought she had to go.
She went out and asked Mu Ya to prepare some offerings, including fruits, fragrant flowers, and some vegetarian buns, steamed buns, cakes and other foods.
I'll take it to the temple tomorrow morning.
"Young Madam. I will do more, don't worry."
"Yes. I feel relieved with your preparations. I'll go tell my mother first." In order not to alert the enemy, Shen Yunyue went to the Shen family Buddhist temple to tell Mo Yiran first.
He also went to inform Mrs. Shen and a few others.
When Old Madam Mo and Madam Mo heard about it, they also wanted to go.
I heard that the temple is on the mountain.
The journey was quite long, so I stopped thinking about it.
Only Madam Mo asked Mo Youting to follow.
Old Madam Shen also wanted to go, but was persuaded by Shen Yunyue. "Why don't you ask Grandma to add some money for the incense, and just pretend you went there in person?"
"That's fine." Old Madam Shen took out a purse from her room.
He took out ten taels of silver from it.
"Please add some oil to my incense. It would be best if you can set up a birth order for your father and his family so that they can be reborn into a good family in the future."
