The surveillance screen showed the conversation between the Zhao brothers, and everyone watched with mixed emotions. The trajectory of his actions was planned by His Majesty, and the plot was clearly heard by them.
Yan Mi and others couldn't help but sympathize with the two Zhao brothers. They thought they were smart, but they were manipulated by others.
Zhu Qinghong was silent for a moment, and contacted Fang again.
The call was quickly answered, and Fang Youan lowered his head and saluted: "Your Majesty."
After sending a map, Zhu Qinghong ordered: "Take people to Youshuang Country. You choose the candidates yourself."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Fang Youan accepted the order and hung up.
The team is expensive but not expensive. He can just pick a few capable subordinates.
"Since they are interested in reaching a deal, there is no reason why we should not give them a push." Zhu Qinghong curled his lips and said, "Let's put on a good show."
Everyone bowed and saluted, with playful smiles on their faces. They master the art of acting every minute.
To achieve the purpose.
The Zhao brothers split up. Zhao Yiyang approached Su Rui: "I would like to ask Miss Su for a small favor."
"What are you busy with? Let me tell you." At that time, Su Rui was chatting with Yan Mi in the pavilion, with several plates of snacks placed on the table.
Looking at Yan Mi, Zhao Yiyang felt a little embarrassed: "Master Yan, can you stay away for a while? I have something to say with Miss Su."
"Say it. I didn't ask you not to say it." Yan Mi seemed to have a root in his butt and didn't move.
"This..." Zhao Yiyang looked at Su Rui with pleading eyes, "Miss Su, this matter is of great importance. I want to talk to you alone."
"Brother Mi is my fiancé. He is me, and I am him." Su Rui smiled, "It's okay. Just say it."
Zhao Yiyang's eyes flashed with displeasure, and he said helplessly: "Okay. I'm here to see that there is a surplus of food in the city and I want to trade."
"Everyone can buy food. You can go to the store to buy it." Su Rui took a bite of the snack and ate it happily.
"If we only need a small amount of food, I will not ask Miss Su for help." Zhao Yiyang explained, "Our country is short of food. If we can reach a deal with your country, it will be good for both parties. I know that Miss Su cannot make the decision. I want to ask Miss Su Help me connect."
"So you want to find your uncle." Su Rui agreed, "If you have anything, I'll take care of it."
"Thank you very much." Zhao Yiyang stood up and bowed deeply, "I'm waiting for good news from you, Miss. I will give you a big thank you when everything is done."
After saying that, he glanced at Yan Mi and left.
Su Rui slowly bit the pastry: "How true do you think a man's love is? He keeps saying that he doesn't want to hurt, but he still carries out the plan without hesitation. If I were pure and kind, the destruction of my country and my family would be the fate he would give me."
Yan Mi was as timid as a quail and didn't dare to answer the question.
As a man, no matter what you say will make the commander displeased, it is better to shut up and pretend to be dead.
"When I have nothing, will he still be moved by himself? Think he is very good to me?" Su Rui put down her snack and sneered, "After all, my country is ruined and my family is ruined, isn't it? When the time comes, will he still give me alms?" If you love me, will you marry me?"
Keep shutting up, Yan Mi's whole body was tense and he didn't dare to move. Commander, don't be impulsive, he is just a weak and helpless subordinate.
"The commander's words are wrong." Yingcai walked into the pavilion with a smile and pinched Su Rui's shoulders skillfully, "Although all men in the world are unlucky, I think there will be a man who is sincere among millions of people. The one you love, one It’s enough.”
"Why are you here?" Su Rui said with a gentle smile, "What? From what you said, you have a sweetheart?"
Ying Cai glanced at Yan Mi.
Yan Mi woke up immediately, clasped his fists in gratitude, and left quickly. Su Rui looked calm and said nothing.
"Princess," Yingcai gently kneaded Su Rui's shoulders, "Yingcai has been serving you since childhood. No matter how the situation changes, you are my princess. It is only natural that I come to serve you. I only hope that the princess is safe and happy, Find a close friend and grow old together."
Although the wish is good, it is not realistic.
Su Rui experienced a great calamity and had nothing but disgust for men. It looks glorious on the outside, but dirty and rotten on the inside.
She couldn't love anyone but her sister. It is reasonable for her sister to save her and for her to accompany her sister for the rest of her life.
"Yingcai, when you get married, I will prepare a thick dowry." Su Rui held Yingcai's hand, "You want to be happy."
Experience the happiness of marriage on her behalf.
Su Rui lowered her eyes, love is ethereal, and people's hearts are changeable. She couldn't believe it at all...
Yingcai sighed silently.
Even after getting out of the original predicament, my heart can't return to the pure past. The princess suffered.
Su Rui raised her head, and the sky was high enough for birds to fly.
In the pavilion, she chatted with Yingcai. It’s okay not to mention those melancholy and boredoms.
On the other side, Zhao Yilan found Zhu Qinghong's yard. The maid and servant retreated, and he got straight to the point: "Do you want to be free, young lady?"
After drinking tea, Zhu Qinghong raised his eyes and said, "What does Mr. Zhao mean? Qinghong doesn't understand."
"Both of the girl's parents are dead, so she lives in the Su Mansion to support others." Zhao Yilan thought he was very observant. "When the prefect came, he only cared about Miss Su. The master and his wife had plenty of food and clothing for you, but they paid very little attention to you. Is the girl willing to live under someone else's roof all the time? "
In his mind, there is such a script.
Zhu Qinghong gently placed the tea cup on the table.
He probably couldn't imagine that Gao Chen ignored her because he didn't know how to show it.
The master and his wife were afraid of saying or doing something wrong, so they were naturally cautious.
Their awe towards her seemed to Zhao Yilan to be indifferent, even a little disgusting.
Okay, it helps with planning.
"Young master, you came here just to talk to me about this?" Zhu Qinghong smiled lightly, "I am an orphan, so what can I do?"
"If you, girl, cooperate with me, you will be able to get out of this predicament when things are done." Zhao Yilan was confident. Miss Su's cousin looks glamorous, but in reality she can't help herself. He is obviously older than Miss Su, but there is no news about his marriage. How sad in comparison.
Zhu Qinghong picked up the tea cup and slowly stirred the tea foam on the surface of the water: "What is the cooperation for? You might as well speak frankly."
"To be honest, girl, our country is short of food." Zhao Yilan frowned and expressed pity, "I will make a deal with your country in exchange for food. However, the prefect does not understand our country and will definitely send someone to investigate. Why don't you fight for it, girl?"
"Young master, you want me to go to your country as an envoy?" Zhu Qinghong lowered his eyes, "What benefits can I gain?"
"When a girl becomes an envoy, her predicament will be solved." Zhao Yilan looked directly at Zhu Qinghong, "Go to the top yourself, and no one else can look down upon you. There is another possibility for the marriage that has been manipulated. Could it be that the girl wants to continue dragging it out and get married at will? ?”
According to Zhao Yilan's thoughts, her current situation is indeed not good. Living in the Su Mansion, you can't get married on your own.
His younger cousin got married first, which gave him a very bad reputation. Zhu Qinghong rubbed the rim of the cup with his fingers, he could only marry low.
Of course, it is also possible to give it to someone else as a concubine to play a final role. A typical fate of a boudoir woman.
A smart woman will surely seize this opportunity and use Zhao Yilan's help to get out of trouble. The corners of Zhu Qinghong's lips curved upward. If she were really a boudoir girl...
Looking up at Zhao Yilan, Zhu Qinghong nodded: "Young Master Zhao might as well talk about the specific plan."
If she is really a boudoir girl, she is taken advantage of without knowing the inside story, leading to the destruction of the country and the family.
What despair and regret.
The master and his wife never treated her harshly in terms of food and clothing, but she was just not allowed to have freedom.
Reluctant, but never resentful.
But it caused irreparable consequences.
What a miserable life. Zhu Qinghong’s eyes were calm, so it’s not too much to give it back to him, right?
Return the consequences that may happen to her to the man who is confident in using and deceiving her.
Not too much?
"I have a way to invite the prefect to come and explain the transaction." Zhao Yilan took out a wooden box from his sleeve and opened it. Inside lay a delicate walking stick, "Then the girl can perform on her own. If you grant me the title of envoy, you can leave here. , feel at ease."
Glancing at Bu Yao in the box, Zhu Qinghong really didn't like it. There are so many beautiful jewelry in the store, but this one is garbage.
She stretched out her hand to cover the wooden box and accepted it: "For freedom, I will do my best. Young master, please go slowly. I won't send it away."
Zhao Yilan stood up, bowed and turned to leave. Seeing the person walking away, Zhu Qinghong threw the box on the table.
A robotic arm collects it, separates it, smelts it and recasts it. Zhu Qinghong's eyes were sharp: "Scheming against me? Are you worthy?"
[Master, take down Yingling Country and Youshuang Country. Expand the territory of the dynasty and fill it with various resources. 】
"That's what I meant." Zhu Qinghong smiled happily. For the sake of the resources they sent, let's spare the dog's life.
After the Zhao brothers separately coaxed Zhu Qinghong and Su Rui, they sent people to inquire about the whereabouts of Bai Shifeng and Yan Zhen.
The subordinates dispersed and wandered around the entire city. Their deeds were noticed by the people, who turned to report to the soldiers. The soldiers only followed so as not to alert the enemy.
The subordinates bought back various vegetables and praised the taste and yield eloquently. Zhao Yilan and Zhao Yiyang became more and more jealous as they listened.
"I haven't found any information about the priest. The people don't discuss the current emperor, so there is no way to find out."
"Strange. It is said that the priests are powerful and the emperor has great achievements. Why do the people never discuss it?"
"It should have been ordered not to discuss it." Zhao Yilan pondered, "It's too mysterious. We probably can't get in touch with it."
"It doesn't matter." Zhao Yiyang is more optimistic. "If we can persuade the prefect to agree, he will report it to the superior. No matter whether the emperor or the priests see us or not, we can't let go of this good opportunity for trade. Now, we just wait for the news to come."
Zhao Yilan frowned, feeling uneasy for some reason. Things were going so smoothly, as if they had been planned.
Thinking about it carefully, he couldn't figure it out.
I met the two girls by chance, and I also met Master Bai and Master Yan by chance...
If all this was artificially arranged, the hand behind him would be such a terrifying presence.
It’s a perfect strategy.
"Third brother, what are you thinking about?" Zhao Yiyang asked Zhao Yilan, who had regained consciousness, "We can buy food, but we have no clue about how to grow it. And there is no seed shop in the city. Without seeds, how can they grow so much food? Or are seeds controlled? ?”
"It seems to be under control." Zhao Yilan shook off the ridiculous thoughts.
He didn't believe there was such a powerful person in the world.
"We can't just buy food." Zhao Yiyang worried, "We should also prepare some seeds. Just in case."
Zhao Yilan nodded: "Mention it when you meet the prefect and see how he responds. If you are rejected, you can only find another way out."
The two brothers looked at each other and had an idea.
Officials who specialize in agriculture must know that before leaving, they will be arrested and threatened with one or two tortures.
