At the same time, the border intersects with Nanchen.
"How is this going?"
The general in armor looked at the moldy rice in the grain bag with disbelief.
Wearing a green robe, a middle-aged man with an elegant face and a tired look stepped forward, grabbed a handful of rice, and looked at it carefully.
After a while, Tan Ming stood up and looked at the general, "This is not the batch of rice I sent."
"I bought it from the Jianghuai area. The rice grains are large and plump. However, this batch of rice grains is small and shriveled. It obviously comes from areas that are short of water."
The armored general's expression was extremely ugly: "Master Tan, if hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the border eat these moldy rice grains, the consequences will be disastrous."
"I must report this matter to His Majesty."
Tan Ming glanced at the gentle woman beside him and whispered: "Madam, please send a message to father immediately and ask him to raise rice again and deliver it as soon as possible."
After that, he looked at the armored general and said, "General, Tanfu has been an imperial merchant for so many years and has never made any mistakes."
"What happened this time was due to my negligence. Someone replaced the rice grain. Is the army's grain enough to last for a month?"
The armored general frowned: "One month at most, but purchasing and delivering food may not be completed in one month."
Tan Ming took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "General, please believe me, I will not let the soldiers have no food to eat."
The gentle woman beside him said softly: "Husband, we escorted the rice grain all the way. Only when we passed through Yunzhou, I couldn't adapt to the climate. In order to take care of me, you had someone send the rice grain to the border first. It took about four days. Time, we didn’t always look at the rice grain.”
Tan Ming was shocked and understood what his wife meant. He pondered for a moment and said, "Madam, please untie and go back to Tan Mansion."
Tang'er was given a marriage to the third prince, but the queen did not break up with Tan Mansion.
It wasn't until Emperor Wu Shun gave Tang'er a golden eagle and jade hairpin as a betrothal gift that the queen finally listed Tan Mansion as a hostile camp.
And Yunzhou is the ancestral home of the queen's mother's family. If it were in Yunzhou, with the queen's ability, she could indeed exchange rice grains without anyone noticing.
But this rice grain is related to the stability of the border. The Queen's behavior is completely harmful to others and herself.
Wang naturally thought of this, a coldness flashed across her eyes, and she nodded, "Don't worry, husband, I will take care of things at home."
Tan Ming patted her hand distressedly and looked at the armored general, "General, I will stay in the army. If the rice and food are not available in a month, I will let the general do whatever he wants."
The armored general hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Master Tan, I can't make the decision on this matter, so I have to report it to Your Majesty."
"Okay, general, I'd like to trouble you to send my wife back to Tan Mansion safely."
"good."
...
The day I return to Tan Mansion.
Qingwan looked at the greetings of ten carriages and smacked her lips in shock, "Miss, what does the Third Prince mean?"
If you don't like your own lady, why do you prepare so many door-return gifts?
But if he liked his own lady, why did he accept Miss Shang's hairpin?
Su Ruotang's delicate little face exudes a coldness that makes people dare not look directly at her.
Squeezing the fat rabbit on the bracelet, she said calmly: "Let's go."
"Ah? Aren't you waiting for Your Highness?" Qing Wan looked surprised.
Su Ruotang didn't say anything, and held the maid's hand to get into the carriage.
It was said that Miss Shang, who had grown up with him and had gone down rivers to catch fish and climbed trees to catch birds, could arrive in the capital in two days.
And Shang Ruyan likes to collect jade.
When she woke up early this morning, she vaguely heard Shen Shi talking about jade to Mo Ronyan, and then disappeared.
Also, compared to the friendship between her childhood sweethearts of more than ten years, her newlywed wife is naturally not that important.
Qing Qing rolled his eyes and saw that the time was up and Mo Ronyan didn't show up. He glared at Shen Fei angrily and said, "Scumbag!"
Shen Fei, who was responsible for sending Su Ruotang back home: "???"
He has never even touched a girl's hand until now, so why is he a scumbag?
Feng, Tan Xiuyuan and Tan Zhixi were waiting at the door of Tan Mansion early.
Seeing the carriage that occupied a street slowly approaching, the three of them all had joy on their faces.
Although the third prince didn't love Tang'er, he at least gave her enough respect as a princess.
Su Ruotang opened the curtain and looked at the three people standing in front of Tan Mansion with a smile on her bright face.
As soon as the carriage stopped, she couldn't wait to get out of the car, "Grandpa, grandma, cousin."
Tan Xiuyuan and Feng Shi saw that she was the only one getting out of the car, and their expressions changed slightly.
Tan Zhixi looked back, pursed her lips, stepped forward and took Su Ruotang's hand, and asked in a low voice: "The third prince didn't come with you?"
The smile in Su Ruotang's eyes froze, and her soft voice was calm and unruffled, "He has something to do."
When the people watching saw this scene, they couldn't help but start talking.
"Three days ago, the third prince personally carried the princess into the palace. He gave the princess such a grand wedding. How can he let the princess come back alone now?"
"Don't you know this? Miss Shang is going back to Beijing."
"So the third prince went to pick up Miss Shang? That's why he didn't accompany the princess back home?"
Shen Lanlan stood in front of the crowd and looked at Su Ruotang, her eyes full of jealousy.
She sneered: "The stolen position will be taken away by the owner sooner or later."
When the people around heard her words, they were even more sure that the third prince was going to pick up Shang Ruyan, so they did not accompany the third prince's concubine back home.
It also indirectly proves that the third prince has always liked Shang Ruyan.
The eyes of some noble princes and grandsons flashed, they glanced at the gift box in the hands of their servants, and they prepared to leave in silence.
At the back of the crowd, Su Qi looked at Su Ruotang with a very complicated expression.
After a while, he withdrew his gaze and turned to leave.
Shen Lanlan saw Su Qi's figure out of the corner of her eye, and the sarcasm in her tone became stronger, "How does it feel when my husband goes to pick up other women when he returns home?"
