Chapter 79 Under the Moon ()

This little boy is Cui Du.

Cui Du saluted and stood up straight. He was not used to the distinction between superiority and inferiority, so he looked at Jiang Shaohua loudly and made a few gestures with his hands.

Jiang Shaohua was in a good mood and didn't mind. He guessed with great interest: "My princess will lead the guard camp to suppress the bandits. It will only be half a month since I left. You heard that my princess returned to the house, so you rushed back to see me tonight." Princess?"

Cui Du grinned, nodded repeatedly, took out a charcoal pen and paper from his sleeve, quickly drew a few strokes, and sent it to Jiang Shaohua.

Jiang Shaohua looked carefully at the lantern and the moonlight.

"The spring plowing in the farm is almost over, and it's time to sow seeds." Jiang Shaohua looked at a few extra large and plump grains drawn on the paper and guessed: "Are you choosing grain seeds?"

Cui Du nodded first, and then made a few more gestures.

There is no time to cultivate new grain varieties during sowing this year, so we first select the best batches from the original grain varieties. After the spring plowing is completed, various new grain varieties can be cultivated. This kind of thing cannot be accomplished overnight. Seeds are selected and cultivated year by year. It will take at least three to five years to cultivate truly high-yielding grain seeds.

Jiang Shaohua actually didn't fully understand what Cui Du was gesticulating.

As a princess, there is no need to know so many specific things. She just needs to trust her subordinates and let them do what they want. If you do well, you will be rewarded; if you do poorly, you will be punished.

He only dedicated the new shaft plow to Cui Du and supported him for ten or eight years without suffering a loss.

Jiang Shaohua looked encouraging: "My princess has given you the farm. Whatever you want to do, just do it. I will support you in everything."

After Cui Du heard these heart-warming words, his mood suddenly became excited, and he made gestures on his chest with his hands. It's like trying to tear out a heart.

Jiang Shaohua was amused: "What are you doing? If you want to repay this princess, you just have to do your job well. You don't need to worry about it."

Cui Du also smiled.

He didn't know what he thought of, so he picked up the charcoal and drew again.

Jiang Shaohua waited patiently. When he saw what Cui Du had drawn, he smiled again: "Do you want to ask, how does this princess feel about going to suppress bandits this time?"

On the drawing paper, there is a girl riding a horse and holding a spear. The girl had an unusually big head and a round face. This style of painting is completely different from Danqing freehand brushwork. It is simple, exaggerated and interesting.

Cui Du nodded vigorously, with questions and concerns in his eyes.

Actually, a person who lives in the palace and depends on the princess for food, clothing, housing and transportation is not qualified to communicate with the princess on an equal footing. Even Chen Zhuo, Song Yuan and others had to be careful when speaking in front of Jiang Shaohua. As for Lu Junma, if you want to call your daughter by her given name, you have to look at Jiang Shaohua's face that day.

Cui Du has clearly gone beyond that.

Yin Zhu wanted to stop it.

Jiang Shaohua glanced at Yinzhu and immediately shut up.

Cui Du didn't pay attention, still eagerly waiting for the princess's response.

Jiang Shaohua thought for a while and said: "The bandit suppression was a complete victory. All the bandits were killed. I also personally killed people twice."

Cui Du: "..."

Cui Du couldn't speak, but his pupils instantly felt like an earthquake.

Jiang Shaohua was amused again. She turned her head and signaled Yin Zhu Tubai to retreat further.

After the two maids and a group of soldiers retreated seven or eight meters away, Jiang Shaohua said softly: "Are you shocked? Actually, I didn't expect that I actually killed someone myself."

"The feeling of killing is not pleasant. The first time I saw blood, I kept feeling nauseated. I vomited once and couldn't even eat. That night, I had a nightmare in the middle of the night. As soon as I closed my eyes, blood and flesh were flying everywhere. scene."

"But I can't show it. Even Yinzhu and Tubai don't know that I have nightmares."    "I am the princess, and I want to convince everyone. The guard camp obeys my orders, but I want Not only these, I also want their awe and loyal following.”

"It was much better when I took action the second time. That night I killed Zhu Yidao with one shot, and the guards around me became bloody. After that, their attitudes towards me changed subtly. I didn't vomit anymore. No more nightmares.”

Speaking of this, Jiang Shaohua paused for a moment and took a deep look at the young boy with a handsome face that turned pale: "Cui Du, have you ever killed anyone?"

Cui Du shook his head wildly.

He only killed a chicken once. He was splattered with chicken blood, and since then, he has never touched a chicken again. What does it feel like to kill someone?

I dare not even think about it!

"If possible, never get blood on your hands." Jiang Shaohua said softly.

Cui Du's crazy shaking of his head suddenly stopped.

He looked at her blankly.

She said softly again: "Killing is not a wonderful thing. Don't think about it unless necessary."

how about you?

Why do you have to bear all this when you are so young?

Jiang Shaohua and Cui Du looked at each other, seeing his confusion and pity in their eyes. She was silent for a moment and whispered: "I am different."

Why is it different?

Cui Du made a few gestures and felt unable to express his feelings, so he simply started painting again.

The charcoal pencil made a subtle rustling sound as it landed on the sturdy paper. Cui Du moved his pen like flying and quickly stuffed the paper into Jiang Shaohua's hand.

Again, this is not very respectful. He also touched the princess's finger not very carefully.

Jiang Shaohua glanced subconsciously. Cui Du didn't even know that he was being "disrespectful" and looked magnanimous.

Jiang Shaohua smiled slightly and looked down.

The little girl with a big head and a bulging face walked forward with her head held high, followed by a group of people, all of whom only drew lines. There was only one with a painted face, a cute boy with the same big head and bulging face.

This young man who follows the princess is of course Cui Du himself.

He also deliberately painted himself as close to the princess as the closest. This secret little thought made Jiang Shaohua chuckle: "Cui Du, are you really willing to follow this princess?"

Cui Du nodded vigorously without thinking.

He relied on the princess for everything he needed for food, clothing, housing and transportation. The princess gave him a farm with no end in sight and a lot of manpower. More importantly, in this unfamiliar, confused and confused world, the princess gave him the origin of his identity.

She is his only light.

I just regret that he can't speak yet, the princess doesn't recognize the handwriting he writes, and he can't express his passion.

Jiang Shaohua's eyebrows were curved and he was in a good mood: "Okay, as long as you work hard, I will never treat you badly. It's a pity that you only look ten years old now. Wait a few years, and when you grow taller, I will The princess will help you find a matchmaker and get you a wife."

Cui Du: "..."

Cui Du shook his head rapidly, and his face turned red, whether from embarrassment or other reasons.

Jiang Shaohua smiled again: "What? Not willing? Could it be that you already have a wife?"

Cui Du almost shook his head.
