Is my wife farming today?

Chapter 84 Tribute Chapter

Early in the morning, he was dug out of bed by two ceremonial women from the main courtyard.

She had been tired for most of yesterday, and now her whole body was so sore that she couldn't muster any energy at all.

She could only let the two women instruct several maids to apply powder on her face.

This face alone took more than an hour of work.

Finally, she chose the most popular bun, declined the tassels and pearls on her head, and chose a crimson palace dress. Today she was meeting a waiter from the Rizhao Kingdom, so she couldn't dress too casually.

The round-neck palace dress made her fair neck look elegant and slender. In addition, the mother-in-law tied three soft bamboo pieces around her waist to fix the shoulder bones. She had no choice but to straighten her back and her shoulders suddenly broadened. The makeup and hair reveal a dash of heroic demeanor amidst the beauty.

Even Xie Shen, who had always been extremely picky about her, couldn't help but nodded with relaxed brows.

"It's the only one who looks like me today." Xie Shen turned to ask Manager Zhang, "Are all the accessories on the car decorated?"

"My lord, everything has been decorated according to your instructions." Manager Zhang replied.

Xie Shen hummed, "Let's go."

As soon as Xie Xie stepped forward to follow her, two women in fine clothes behind her immediately used their bows to restrain her arms, "Second Miss, you must not leave like this."

Xie Shen saw it and snorted coldly, "That's all, she only has this kind of virtue, let her be."

He declined to enjoy himself secretly and bowed to Mr. Xie, "Thank you, mother." Then he took two steps at a time and got on the carriage.

Xie Shen coughed a few times, but didn't say anything. He turned a blind eye and pretended he didn't see it.

After a while, when Xie Xie thought she couldn't speak.

Xie Shen suddenly said: "Why did I hear Taifu say that you can also ride? Why didn't I know when you learned it?"

He refused to sit upright and replied calmly: "I'm a bit more capable, but it's just a joke, and it won't get any publicity."

Naturally, Xie Shen would not believe her lies. Yesterday, Dugu Jin personally led Jiang Jing, the chief agricultural officer, to come to her door and asked to see Xie Shen by name. Avoided.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Jing refused to spend too much money and immediately bought up the Rizhao vegetables that were sold in the West Market yesterday. She came here to ask for some, saying that she wanted to find a way to grow them.

Dugu Jin then interjected a few words, saying that a round-leaf light yellow vegetable called Chinese cabbage and Chinese cabbage has become very popular in Beijing recently. Even Rizhao Country, which is always rich in vegetables, has no seedlings. I don’t know where it came from. What comes out tastes far better than the dishes sent from Rizhao Country in the past.

Da Sinong also knew about this and said that he had already sent people to investigate and found some clues.

The farmer who grew this vegetable said that this dish was a vegetable developed by an expert from the Jiyue Kingdom. Jiang Jing has been trying to find a way to contact the expert these days and wants to meet him in person. , but they were all rejected for various reasons.

The two of them chatted about Chinese cabbage for half an hour in front of Xie Shen, and Xie Shen's ears almost grew calluses from listening to them.

Seeing the refusal, she casually mentioned, "Da Sinong came yesterday and said that some vegetables that have never been seen before are popular in Beijing recently. Does this have anything to do with you?"

Xie Xie thought she was talking about those weird dishes from Rizhao Country.

Then he said seriously: "My daughter also bought some in the West Market yesterday and is planning to find someone to research and see if these vegetables can be planted in Jiyue."

When Xie Shen heard this, his expression was dark and unclear, and he just said yes and stopped talking.

When he arrived outside the palace gate, Jiang You showed the Xie family's public card and entered the palace unimpeded.

This is a gift granted by His Majesty to the Xie family. Except for Xie Shen's carriage, everyone else can only walk to Xuanhe Hall.

Xie Rui curiously opened the car curtain and took a few glances.

Today is the annual tribute meeting between Jiyue and Rizhao.

The palace had already been decorated with colorful decorations, and every ten steps on both sides of the palace road were two handsome palace attendants carrying palace lanterns to greet them. The treetops in the garden were filled with joy and celebration.

The carriage gradually stopped.

"Thank you, General." Xie Shen has difficulty moving. Hearing Jiang Jing's voice, he specifically declined, "It's Da Sinong. You should go and see her."

He declined and said, "Yes." He stood up and got out of the car.

The person who came was wearing a dark red official uniform. He was over fifty years old, with slightly gray hair on his temples. He had a Chinese character face and looked very serious and upright.

When he got closer, he noticed the man behind the middle-aged woman who was also following Da Sinong.

The man wore a light gray veil and a light blue gown. He was very thin and his face was pale and bloodless.

She only glanced briefly, leaned down and saluted, "My daughter refuses to meet Mr. Jiang. My mother has limited mobility. I'm really sorry."

Jiang Jing looked at the refusal with burning eyes, "Are you Xie Shen's second daughter? Decline?"

"Yes."

"Not bad! As expected, you are just like your father back then. I heard from the Grand Master that you are talented and beautiful. Yesterday I wanted to come and see for myself, but I happened to find that you were not in the house. I will wait until the tribute festival is held here. I invite you two sisters to come and play at my house."

Declining and agreeing with a smile, he watched Jiang Jing and the two go away, feeling a little strange secretly.

Xie Shen's voice came from the car, "Why don't you come up?"

"coming."

After thinking about it, she asked Xie Shen, "Mother, Master Jiang came to the palace to attend the meeting, why did he only bring one young master with him?"

Xie Shen seemed to have guessed that she would ask this question.

"The daughters of the Jiang family have been stationed at the border all year round. Naturally, they cannot easily return to the capital for such a trivial matter. And Jiang Wanwan was born to a side husband. A concubine is not allowed to enter the palace without being summoned. Naturally, Mr. Jiang can only bring the fifth son into the palace. "

Decline reacted, "So, that was Jiang Wulang just now?"

All this time, she had only heard from Xie Shen that he had found an excellent marriage for Xie Hong. She also said that he was the fifth son of the Dasi Nong family. He was very favored by the family, but he had not been in good health since he was a child, so he rarely went out to see people. .

Now being brought into the palace by Lord Chiang to attend the tribute meeting is enough to prove that the rumors from the outside are true.

The luncheon is served in the inner hall.

By the time he declined, the hall was almost full.

Xie Xie followed Xie Shen and walked forward to salute Her Majesty the Queen. After the ceremony, the palace attendants led them to the table.

As soon as he sat down, Zhou Wenxi came over smelling the smell.

The banquet hadn't started yet, so she winked and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to see something good!"

Xie Xie glanced at Xie Shen beside him and shook his head.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Wenxi stepped forward to ask Xie Shen for instructions and pulled her away.

The two of them exited from behind the table and walked all the way out of the inner hall.

"Where are you taking me?" asked Xiexie.

Zhou Wenxi said perfunctorily, "I'll be there soon, I'll be there soon." He pointed forward.

A smiling He Lanlian walked out from around the corner.

Behind him were seven or eight followers, three of whom were dressed in special clothes. Their whole bodies were made of pearls and jade the size of a thumb. Not only did they make crisp sounds when they walked, but the three important parts of their bodies were even vaguely visible, giving people a sense of The more you want to see clearly whether it is exposed or not, the more urgent it becomes to see clearly.
