Knowing that Duan Jin was pregnant, she was extremely sleepy these days. After hesitating for a long time, Duan Miao finally gave up her struggle and looked at Duan Jin's face in a daze. She could tell from the look on Duan Jin's face that although Duan Jin was married to Daqi, he lived a very happy life. That man is not just her. Otherwise, he would not have taken her with him on the tour, and he would have made a special trip to Dali.
After all, he was born into a royal family. Although his background was miserable, he still had some sense after all. Duan Miao knew that if it weren't for Duan Jin, that man would never have gone to the battlefield in person for such a small battle. He is the king of a country in the great celestial dynasty, and the emperor of a country that rules over the world. Not to mention destroying a Shanchanhou Mansion, even if the entire Dali Kingdom was destroyed, he would not need to come here in person.
The only thing that could make this master risk all the way to come to Dali country was Duan Jin, who was still sleeping at this time. He was also born in the Duan family and grew up in the Duan family. Do you know how close Duan Jin was to his father, mother, and brother? Now that all three of them have passed away, how can they not miss Duan Jin, who was doted on by the three of them since childhood? What's more, Cangshan and Erhai are the places where she grew up.
To be honest, Duan Miao is somewhat jealous of Duan Jin now. Back then, she had always been the favorite of her father and brother. Now she has a husband who loves her so much. In order to fulfill her ideological dream, he even put down his state affairs and came to Dali with her. Even if her temperament is a little too romantic, as the king of a country and her husband, it is quite rare to do this.
At least among the emperors of Dali Kingdom, there was no such person. My father is both dedicated and affectionate. Although he is a bit vulgar and a bit romantic, he is at least much better than some people when it comes to treating his women. And all of this is unattainable for the past self and the present self. All the men he met wanted to devour him.
That guy had the same look when he started to look at me. But after knowing his identity, that vision disappeared so completely. When he looked at himself again, his eyes immediately became domineering and extraordinarily calm, without any disturbance. Duan Miao admitted that she was not the kind of jealous person, but looking at her bad luck in this half of her life, Duan Miao still felt somewhat sad.
Thinking of her mother who died young and the ups and downs of her life, Duan Miao sighed deeply and looked out the window not knowing what she was thinking. Until Duan Jin woke up, Duan Miao was still half-leaning on the head of the bed, but her eyes were a little absent-minded. The only thing that hasn't changed is the hand held by Duan Jin. Looking at Duan Miao's hand that had not moved away, Duan Jin smiled with satisfaction.
Looking at Duan Jin's smile, Duan Miao frowned. He wanted to say something, but he finally swallowed what he wanted to say. On the following day, no matter what Duan Jin said, Duan Miao remained silent. Duan Jin often asked more than a dozen questions, but Duan Miao didn't even reply. I often sit there in a daze. It wasn't until Duan Jin asked her what she was doing in Shicheng County that Duan Miao's expression softened.
It took a long time before he said: "I came to Shicheng County this time to exchange for some salt in the mountains. I originally wanted to buy some books for the children in the mountains. But I really have no money. Over the years, I have not brought out much. Almost all the jewelry has been pawned. What's more, as you know, I didn't have a few pieces of jewelry. When I came out, I didn't have a penny on me."
"From Yangju City to Shicheng County, I stole from a wealthy family. When I stole from a wealthy family in Weichu Prefecture, I encountered a dart in the hands of a master. The dart was poisonous. I raped me all the way. When I got to that tribe, I was poisoned and fell unconscious. It was the tribe leader's wife who passed by and saved me with herbs. In order to repay her life-saving grace, I accepted her as my adopted mother and stayed in that tribe."
"On weekdays, I teach the children of that tribe to read and teach the girls to embroider to make a living. It's just that the tribe is too poor, and the land of their tribe is too barren. They are all grown in mountain skins. There is no way to grow rice and wheat. The only The only thing that can be grown is sorghum. On weekdays, God is kind and the weather is good, and the grain produced per acre is less than 50 kilograms. There are no other products."
"Many poor families can't even afford one meager meal a day. Even the patriarch's family only has three or four taels of grain per person per day, and they can't see any oil stars for a year. They can't even afford salt. My hands The little money you paid has been converted into salt over the years and given to the poor people in the village. After I help you deal with this matter, I still have to go back. At least, I have to find a way to keep them fed. "
After Duan Miao said this, Duan Jin did not answer her. Duan Miao said it very straightforwardly, telling herself directly that when she had no money before, she would go to the local wealthy households to rob. And the purpose of coming to Shicheng County may not be as simple as she said. Duan Jin always felt that the reason why she came to Shicheng County this time was because she heard that there was a war going on here, and she wanted to come over and take advantage of the troubled waters to make something.
Take advantage of the sheep and get something back for that tribe. It was just a guess, but Duan Jin didn't say it out loud. Duan Jin believes that Duan Miao's life these years is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface. I guess this kind of trickery has been done all the time. It's just that all the money she got over the years has probably been spent on that tribe. As a result, I ended up like this.
This is Duan Miao's character. Although she says she is unforgiving, she still remembers those who are kind to her. When you encounter difficulties, you will always try your best to help. Just like with myself, even though we say this or that, when we really need it, we still don't use too much words.
It's just that she relies on robbing the rich and giving to the poor to feed the entire tribe. How can she go on for a long time? Is her method a good one? The rich households in Shicheng County are all in places with copper mines. Those who cherish their lives like gold will spend a lot of money to hire bodyguards. If one day she encounters something tough that she can't deal with when she's plundering sheep again, no one may be able to save her this time.
After so many years, not only did it not change the facts, but it actually made me look like this, without even a single piece of clothing without patches. Duan Miao is still the same Duan Miao, and has not changed over the years. Thinking of this, Duan Jin took Duan Miao's hand and said: "When things are over here, if you really don't want to return to the palace, come back to the Central Plains with me. Let me, my sister, take care of you."
Regarding Duan Jin's words, Duan Miao rolled her eyes and said: "You go back to your Daqi and continue to be your imperial concubine. As for me, even if I am the one who suffers the fate of poverty, I will still return to that tribe. Maybe I People, because of my childhood experience, I don’t trust anyone. When they were so poor, no one despised me. They used all the strength of the clan to take me back from the hands of Yama."
"Although they have become poorer over the years, they have given me the warmth I have never enjoyed since I was a child. I can't be like some people who are ungrateful. As for getting married, forget it. Just you. You know, I can't bear to be romantic to that extent. And there are not many men in this world who are infatuated, and most of them are heartbroken. Like you, I would rather never marry for the rest of my life."
Duan Miao's words made Duan Jin helplessly shake his head. However, the most important thing now is that dealing with that guy is not about talking about the future. Wait until all problems are solved. Anyway, now that they finally meet again, Duan Jin will definitely not let go. Even if she doesn't follow him then, he will have to force her to go. At worst, the overlord just takes the bow.
After standing up and washing up, Duan Jin was still a little worried about Huang Qiong. Although he was not worried about whether Huang Qiong would be hollowed out, he was still a little worried about the owner, so he got up to find Huang Qiong. But when she rushed to Huang Qiong's place, she saw that the ten women from last night were no longer in the room. When he rushed to the room where Huang Qiong used to deal with things, he saw Huang Qiong reading the book.
Seeing Duan Jin coming, Huang Qiong waved. When Duan Jin came to his side, he hugged her in his arms. Feeling Huang Qiong, he lay on his neck and sniffed his hair. Duan Jin chuckled softly and said: "Why, you didn't have enough fun last night? Those ten women were carefully selected by me for Your Majesty. No matter their beauty or figure, they are not inferior to those in the palace. female."
Hearing Duan Jin's half-joking, half-serious words, Huang Qiong could only smile silently and bitterly. Huang Qiong didn't want to continue arguing with Duan Jin on this matter. Instead of answering Duan Jin, he picked up the folder and handed it to Duan Jinhou. After Duan Jin read it carefully, he said: "It seems that those restless masters in the capital have been doing quite well these days. It's time for me to make up my mind."
Duan Jin was somewhat surprised by the zhezi that Huang Qiong thrust into his hands. Huang Qiong, who knew that the harem was never allowed to interfere with politics, must have a reason why he suddenly let himself read this trick today. So despite some hesitation, I finally opened it and read it. After reading this memorial, Duan Jin realized that this memorial was more about housework than government affairs.
King Teng and King Song, taking advantage of Huang Qiong's absence in the capital, were getting more and more happy these days. Although he seemed honest on the surface, he had been trying his best to win over some military attachés of the Eighth Imperial Forest Army and some officials in the court. Especially the King of Song, who used his grandfather's family to have little influence left. Thinking of desperately trying to place his own people in some key positions in the capital.
They have been forcing Yu Mingyuan and Fu Yuanshan all day long to transfer the officials they placed to places where they have actual duties and have military power. He even went to the Privy Council and forced Yu Mingyuan to transfer some so-called military attaches to the Eighth Army of the Royal Forest. Moreover, Dong Qianhong and Concubine De were getting closer and closer in the palace. She often took her children with her and stayed in Concubine De's palace for a whole day, and often provoked Situ Huanshuang.
As for He Yao, he was even more indifferent. The other concubines in the palace are also bossed around by their arrogance all day long. Especially Ms. Cai, she was angry with her almost every day. Several times, if He Yao hadn't arrived in time and broke into Cai's palace with Concubine De, Duan Jin's son would have been forcibly taken away. It is said that Cai's rank is too low and she is too old to raise the second son of the emperor.
She repeatedly threatened that the second son of the emperor should be raised by herself. After asking for it many times to no avail, Situ even had to rob it by force. In the end, it was He Yao who took action with Lin Wanqing and the other girls to restrain Dong Qianhong and the concubine De, as well as the Song king who then forced their way into the palace and rushed to the Cai family's palace to force him into the palace. In the end, Situ Huanshuang was helpless and took Mrs. Cai and her two children to his bedroom.
Only then did she avoid Dong Qianhong, colluding with Concubine De almost every day, and looking for trouble all day long. Even, forcefully fight for the second son of the emperor. After seeing the contents of the memorial, Duan Jin's beautiful eyebrows couldn't help but frown. How Dong Qianhong catches demons is her own business, but she shouldn't cause trouble with her son. By doing this, Dong Qianhong touched Duan Jin's side.
