Chapter 45
Rescue someone halfway
Xiao Yilin thought that King Xuan had returned to Beijing and he no longer had to stay in the palace, "I will go back with you."
Jing Yi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, "My lord, your status is precious, so it is best to stay in the palace to recuperate. I will come over in a few days to give you acupuncture."
Jing Yi now knows Xiao Yilin's true identity, and doesn't want him to live in her home again. If Xiao Yilin's enemies find out, not only Xiao Yilin will be in danger, but their family will also be in danger. For her, Xiao Yilin is a big trouble, and she
I don't want to bring this big trouble home with me.
Xiao Yilin clearly felt that the boy had been deliberately alienating him since he knew his true identity. This made him feel very disappointed.
Thinking of Prince Jing Xiao Yilin, he is the king in Huizhou Prefecture. No one wants to please or fawn over him. Only this young man not only has no intention of flattering him, but is also a little distant, and seems unwilling to get too close to him. This also just shows that the young man
There is no intention against him.
The more this happened, the more he wanted to be friends with the boy.
Xiao Yilin sighed inaudibly, "Okay then, you can take care of things at home before coming back. If you are worried about your mother, bring your mother and the others too. It will be winter soon, and the fields should be
Nothing happened anymore.
As for the seeds you need, I will ask my subordinates to prepare them for you. It is easier to collect seeds in this city than in Hui'an County. You can make a list for Manager Xiao later, and he will definitely handle it for you. You can bring it with you when the time comes.
Go back with the seeds."
Jing Yi thought about it and said, "Okay, I'll trouble you, Your Majesty. I'll make a list for Mr. Xiao later. Your Majesty's body is still very weak. You still need to keep warm in the room when winter comes. The air in the room will not be good for burning charcoal."
, you can have people build earth dragons and fire pits, so that the room will be warm and the air will not be bad."
Xiao Yilin also knew that the boy's home had a fire pit, and this was the first time he heard about it.
He was even more interested in what the young man said about Earth Dragon, "I heard about this fire kang for the first time at your house. I have never heard of Earth Dragon at all. Can you teach the craftsmen about it?"
Jing Yi said: "I drew the drawings of the earth dragon and the fire kang, and asked Mr. Xiao to find a mason to come and let me explain it to him."
Xiao Yilin asked Xiao Zhen to find masons from the mansion to build the fire kang and the earth dragon in the two rooms of Qinglan Courtyard. Jing Yi was also afraid that the craftsmen had not seen the fire kang and the earth dragon make mistakes, so he guided them beside him.
Because Jing Yi's identity must be kept secret, outsiders were not allowed to enter Qinglan Courtyard as much as possible, so Gu Yu and Feng Zhi helped when building the fire kang and earth dragon.
Jingyi had the two wing rooms opened up and divided into an inner and outer room. The outer room could be used to receive guests, and the inner room could be used as a bedroom and a place for handling government affairs.
It would be faster to just build two rooms first. For Prince Jing's Mansion, it is easy to obtain blue bricks, stones and other materials. Jing Yi also asked Manager Xiao to send people to get materials such as lime and clay. Then he would put them on the ground and walls.
The flue was built, sealed, and the floor was paved with blue bricks.
There are north and south fire Kangs built in the room. The North Kang can be used for sleeping and resting at night, and the South Kang can be used to sit on and handle government affairs during the day, ensuring that you will not get cold in winter.
Jing Yi also took the initiative to talk about things like the fire kang, the earth dragon, and the water wheel, hoping that Xiao Yilin could help cover them up. She didn't want to attract other people's attention.
In her heart, she was afraid that someone from the Jin royal family who had a grudge against Xiao Yilin would notice her and find out that she had saved Xiao Yilin, in which case she would definitely be in trouble.
In this ancient feudal society, she didn't want to associate with someone as powerful and troublesome as Xiao Yilin. What's more, she was a woman and was looked down upon in this patriarchal society.
She just wants to make money now, and then slowly develop her own power. Sooner or later, she will fulfill her promise to avenge the Jing family.
After a while, when everything is settled, she plans to build an intelligence agency first. At least she needs to understand the internal information of Yiguo and prepare for future revenge.
Now is the time for her to keep a low profile and develop in secret. She doesn't want to get involved in the struggle between the Jin royal family.
Xiao Zhen received instructions from his prince and prepared the seeds Jingyi needed according to the list given by Jingyi. Cotton seeds, sunflowers, wolfberry and rice seeds were also prepared. Jingyi saw that the seeds were all very good, with full grains.
, the variety is excellent, and it will definitely be better after she optimizes it.
After building the earth dragon and fire kang, Jingyi quietly left Prince Jing's Mansion and hurried home without waiting for the results to be seen. Xiao Town will then send someone to send the seeds to Yunxi Village.
On the way, Jingyi saw a lot of refugees fleeing famine. It seemed that people fleeing famine from several affected states in the north had already arrived here.
When they were approaching Hui'an County, Jingyi and several people protecting her encountered a young man who had passed out on the roadside.
Jing Yi checked the young man's pulse and knew that he was hungry. She turned around and said to a guard: "Bring some water and softer steamed buns."
The steamed buns were specially made by Jing Yi to take on the road.
Jingyi gave the young man some water to drink, and the young man woke up quickly.
Jing Yi took out a steamed bun and handed it to the young man, "I'm so hungry, let's eat something."
The young man took the white-faced steamed bun from Jing Yi's hand and ate it hungrily.
Jingyi also handed him a water bag and asked him to eat the steamed buns with the water. Soon the young man had eaten the steamed buns.
After eating the steamed buns, the young man knelt down in front of Jing Yi and kowtowed to express gratitude, "Thank you so much for saving my life, otherwise this little man would have died on the roadside."
Jing Yi said: "I see you are fainting from hunger. Did something happen to you?"
The young man's eyes turned red when he heard this, "My dear friend, my name is Song Yuancheng. My hometown is in Qingzhou Prefecture. This year, there was a serious drought there, and there was no harvest in the fields. The whole village has fled.
I took my elderly parents along with the people from the village and it was better. But then my father got sick, which delayed us, and we fell behind. My father couldn't make it through, and passed away soon. My mother was originally in poor health.
It was not good and he soon followed my father.
After burying my parents, I managed to catch up with the people in our village, but we were robbed by bandits again, and we were all scattered. The only things I had around me were also robbed.
I had to beg all the way, and when I got here I was so hungry and thirsty that I passed out on the roadside. Fortunately, my benefactor saved me and saved my life.
My benefactor, my life will belong to my benefactor from now on. I ask my benefactor to take me in. I am willing to serve my benefactor as a slave for the rest of my life."
Jing Yi heard that this young man spoke in an elegant and orderly manner and asked, "Have you read a book?"
Song Yuancheng said: "The villain has been to a private school for several years, knows some words, and has also learned some arithmetic."
Jing Yi thought that she would have to have someone to help her farm in the future, so she said, "If you want to follow me, you have to sign a contract of sale."
Song Yuancheng hurriedly said: "The villain is willing. The benefactor saved the villain's life. From now on, the villain will follow the benefactor to the death."
Jing Yi said: "Okay then, just come with me."
