Chapter 149: I Will Come for You All My Life (145)
He Qing was a little nervous when he entered the palace for the first time, but fortunately he was accompanied by his wife, so he gradually calmed down. The two of them bowed respectfully.
The empress saw that both men were polite and respectful, so she asked them to stand up.
After Luo Shu stood up, he naturally helped He Qing to stand up. This made the empress look calm, but she felt mixed emotions in her heart.
She also wanted to be openly loving with her Ruanruan instead of hiding it.
The last time she saw her, she felt that this woman was a little different. She was kind-hearted and could serve the people, but she was not greedy for official position and power.
This time she also received a report from her subordinates. At first she did not pay attention to it. She just thought that the new agricultural tools mentioned in the report would be a great thing for the people's livelihood if they were promoted nationwide. It would be great if the output could be increased as well, so that the people could have food to eat and would no longer go hungry.
So she decided to see who launched it first. Since new agricultural tools could be launched, perhaps the increase in grain production could also be achieved. However, when she saw the familiar village name, she subconsciously thought of Luoshu.
as predicted!
What I didn't expect was that she actually knew medical skills. Xiao Si's illness that had lasted for so many years was actually cured by her. Maybe...
Putting all this aside for the moment, the empress spoke to her seriously and majestically about the issue of increasing grain production.
"Your Majesty, I am not very good at agriculture. I need to seek help from professionals."
"That's no problem. If you have any questions, you can go directly to the Ministry of Industry's Ms. Zhao, Zhao Shian. She is an expert in agriculture."
"Thank you for your support, Your Majesty."
"Yeah. I heard that you cured Xiao Si's illness?"
"Yes, your majesty. It is me."
"Since Miss Luo knows medical skills, why did she choose to go into business? Being a businessman is not as prestigious as being a medical officer."
"Your Majesty, I have no ambition to do this. Moreover, my medical skills are not very high. It is just a coincidence that I can cure the Fourth Prince's illness."
"I see. I heard from the Second Princess that the reward you are asking for is to give your husband the title of a county lady?"
Luo Shu still answered calmly, "That's right." He Qing, who was standing beside him, was so frightened that he didn't dare to say a word for a while.
"Did you know that the title of county lord can only be bestowed on the sons of princes and ministers?"
"I know a little bit."
"Now that you know, you still dare to speak?"
"Since the Second Princess dares to agree, I believe there is always a way. Besides, if it doesn't work, Your Majesty wouldn't ask this question today."
The empress's voice instantly became angry: "Someone is coming!" As soon as she finished speaking, several men in black appeared beside her, "What do you want, Your Majesty?"
He Qing was so scared that he grabbed Luo Shu's hand tightly. These people were obviously very powerful masters. Luo Shu patted his hand gently: "It's okay, don't be afraid."
"Your Majesty, do you want me to see how powerful your secret guards are?"
"Maybe it will cost you your life." The empress said softly.
"I have done nothing wrong and have never contradicted you. My request must be legitimate and deserved. Your Majesty is a wise ruler and will not kill innocent people."
The empress snorted in her heart, as expected of her, she was still stubborn and someone actually praised her.
The empress waved her hand and dismissed the secret guards: "County Lady, I can give it to you. But you have to help me complete one thing."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"I will send someone to pick you up in the evening. If you do a good job, I will give you the title of county lady."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The empress raised her hand and said, "Stand up." Then she glanced at He Qing and said, "You are very kind to your husband."
"If you really love someone, you will be happy to do it, just like drinking water and eating food in daily life. It is my instinct to treat him well. If Your Majesty has someone you truly love, you will naturally understand my state of mind."
The empress suddenly waved her hand impatiently: "Okay, you can leave now. I am tired."
Luo Shu said nothing more and left, holding He Qing's hand.
Xia Junyan originally wanted to detain He Qing to prevent any accidents from happening at night and to ensure that Luo Shu kept the secret.
But looking at the loving look between the two, she couldn't bear it.
Forget it, just ask Xia Zhengyi to be more careful at night.
Even if she was discovered, she would just go with the flow. She would not let what happened that year happen again this time!
Cold Palace Chenglu Hall
A man in exotic red clothes was swinging leisurely on a swing, while a servant behind him was pushing the swing for him with a serious face, while protecting him from getting hurt.
The man had a bright, soft and cute smile on his face. The swing was swinging gently, and the maid didn't dare to push it too hard for fear that her master would get hurt.
But the man anxiously clapped his hands, urging him to push higher, and pouted his lips to the sky to show his unhappiness.
The servant boy had no choice but to use a little more strength. The man got what he wanted and felt like he was about to fly. He couldn't help clapping his hands in joy. This action scared the servant boy so much that he hurriedly tried to rescue the man who was about to fly away.
After a narrow escape, the maid caught the man and said impatiently, "Master, please be careful! That was so dangerous just now!"
Bo Yangxiu, because of the current Majesty's unification and his marriage, his full name is now Xia Bo Yangxiu.
He is the most favored little prince in Miaojiang. He is loved by his mother and father, has a life without worries about food and clothing, and is also loved by his tribesmen.
But her grandmother was different from her mother. She was a warmongerer and had her own grand ambitions. Unifying the country was what she had heard since she was a child.
The Miao people are good at Gu, and can control insects and ants, and cultivate Gu insects to control people's hearts. This is very powerful. His mother's Gu technique was passed down from his grandmother, who is the most powerful Gu controller in Miaojiang. Because he is a man, he cannot receive the true teachings, but his level is still quite good.
But when he saw his people suffering from war, not having enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear, and living in poverty, his heart ached.
My mother was also a kind-hearted person. She did not like my grandmother's behavior of constantly provoking wars. She tried to dissuade her many times, but to no avail. She was very helpless.
When Empress Donglan was gaining an unstoppable momentum, he discussed and negotiated a secret peace with his mother.
They helped the empress to quickly end the war. The empress was to treat the captured civilians of other countries well and sign a treaty that would ensure a hundred years of stability.
He also chose to marry a princess in exchange for the promise of paying tribute to the Miao region after it was restored.
His biological mother and father were very sad and reluctant to let him go, but he had no regrets. He enjoyed the glory that came with his royal status, so he had to shoulder the corresponding responsibilities and protect his people.
And he had no regrets. The heroic and unrestrained look of the young empress left a deep impression on him and made his heart beat fast.
That year, he was only twelve years old. He left his hometown, said goodbye to his parents, and embarked on an unknown journey for him.
But he did not regret it. It was his responsibility. He gave them a chance to recuperate and a chance to start over.
It is also his young love's expectation and a gamble on his happy life.
However, the naive boy did not know that it was not so easy to win the heart of the empress, nor did he know that the harem of Da Xia was more dangerous than the open fighting on the battlefield.
