The upgrade of Concubine Xian in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 630
The royal army was walking deep into the grassland, passing the county seat along the way, the Hongli army ordered people to be stationed outside the city, and sent people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to go to the county seat to buy in person, and Zarafin's servants also passed by.

After breakfast, Zarafin wore a peach-pink short coat and long skirt, with a set of curly heads rolled up on her head, and a set of hibiscus stones on her head.

"Ah, what do you think of this mask?" Zarafin turned around in front of Hongli, "It's one of the 100 sets of masks you specially prepared for me before you left Beijing."

"Do you like it?" Hongli took advantage of his spare time to draw a lot of jewelry, and let the inner man drive them out secretly.

"Of course, Hun, don't you say that people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs will go shopping in the county these days?" Zarafen looked at Hongli and said, "I want to go for a walk in the county, Hun, come with me Bar?"

The servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are making purchases, and Zarafin has sent his own people to investigate in person, and found that some of the servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs have begun to lie about the situation.

"Okay!" Hongli put down the brush in his hand, and prepared to take Zarafin to the county town together. "Gao Wuyong, tell Tu Lichen to come over, and you will wait by Yu Huan's side."

"Yes!" Gao Wuyong went out to give Hongli's order.

Later, Hongli went out with his guards, and Zarafin followed Hongli step by step in his small leather boots.

"Jiaojiao, all the people from the House of Internal Affairs are here." Hongli looked at Zarafin and said, "Look at the people, there is no smile on their faces, don't you think this is already strange Yet?"

"Let's go and ask." Zarafin walked over, looked at some vegetables, and hurriedly picked them up, "Old man, how do you sell these?"

"These piles are worth 2 copper coins. Vegetables are very easy to sell these days. Basically, they are worth 2 copper coins. In the past, they could not be sold at all." The stall owner said directly.

"Someone bought them all." Zarafin looked at the tortoise shell and said, "Master, if there are any vegetables at home, I'll wrap them up."

Hongli stood far away, staring at Zarafin's actions: "Tulichen sent people from Longwei to investigate carefully to see if anyone is fishing in troubled waters in the county."

Tu Lichen sent two guards to leave, and specially arranged for someone to conduct a secret investigation, hoping not to catch the handle of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"Ah, look, I bought a lot of vegetables, and I prepared some food for you today." Zarafin moved closer to Hongli, and said cheerfully.

"Okay, I'll wait to eat what you prepared today." Hongli readily agreed, and let's go ahead to buy something else.

Hongli saw that there were a few people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs who were buying things wantonly. Hearing that someone even lowered the price, he looked at Tu Lichen and was about to ask someone to go over and talk about it.

"Ah, this is the business, and the money should not be a loss." Zarafin poked Hongli and said.

No one's copper coins are easy to earn. If everyone has a unified price, it will be too much. These people will definitely wait for the arrival of the army and will no longer produce and sell themselves.

The two walked slowly on the commercial street, and Zarafin specially asked people to buy a lot of food.

"Let's go back quickly and eat noodles with fried sauce today." Zarafin rarely had time to cook meals, and now, she has this kind of leisure.

Hongli took Zarafin and left the street together, with a smile on his face: "We are stationed outside the city today, what you bought is enough for a long time."

"The food is fresh, let's eat it, and all the rest will be made into bacon." Zarafin specially brought two cooks who make bacon, just to help.

After returning to the imperial tent, Hongli went to the imperial tent to listen to Tu Lichen's report, while Zarafen took Lily of the Valley and the others to the dining room.

In the imperial dining room, I found a lot of raw materials on the table of the imperial chefs. The royal chefs used the method of their hometown to preserve these green vegetables.

Seeing Zarafin appearing at the door, the royal cooks quickly put down the things in their hands and bowed to salute Zarafin.

"Come on, all of you, I remember that there should be people from here among you?" Zarafin asked as he looked at the imperial cooks who came out with him.

"Your lord, this is where the slaves come from," Song Yuchu came out, knelt on the ground and looked at Zarafen, "According to the current weather, it may take a while before there are more vegetables. .”

"According to what Song Yuchu said," Zarafen ordered, "Song Yuchu, entered the depths of the grassland, didn't you?"

"Master Hui, you don't know that if you enter the grassland at this moment, it is the time when the earth rejuvenates, and a large number of war horses eat pasture, it will definitely not be enough." Song Yuchu said.

When Zarafen heard Song Yuchu's words, he couldn't help feeling worried. The horses were all there, and Hongli and the others even planned to let the cavalry go first.

"Put down what you're doing now, and follow me to Longzhuo." Zarafin said directly.

Song Yuchu was stared at by his colleagues for a while, and the manager instantly woke up, telling him to follow Concubine Tong quickly.

In the imperial tent, Hongli was meeting with the minister, Gao Wuyong saw Zarafin approaching, and rushed to meet him.

"My lord, why did you come here today?" Gao Wuyong became suspicious.

"There are some things that need to be discussed with Ah Hun, you should report to outsiders now." Zarafin said.

"You wait in the side hall for a while, the master will not see the foreign ministers again after seeing these people." Gao Wuyong said.

Zarafin nodded and took Song Yuchu to the side hall.

Gao Wuyong returned to Hongli and told Hongli that Zarafen was waiting in the side hall, and Hongli hurriedly dismissed the courtiers.

"Zha Jiaojiao, why did you come to the Yuzhang?" Hongli was surprised. Two days ago, Zarafen said that he wanted to avoid suspicion, so he definitely would not come to the Yuzhang.

"Ah, it's about preparing food and grass." Zarafen looked at Song Yuchu and gave him an encouraging look.

Hongli saw Zarafin's eyes and quickly covered them with his hands.

"Don't let me see you encouraging other men again." Hongli warned.

"Ah Hun, hurry up and listen, this person is a local, he can give us a lot of advice." Zarafin said coquettishly.

In front of Hongli, Zarafin seldom rushed to the front, but every time he muttered to the side to give Hongli some warnings.

Song Yuchu heard Zarafen's words, and felt warm in his heart, your master did not embarrass anyone.

For a small person like him, if he was a face saint, he might be nervous, but Zarafen's interruption made Song Yuchu not nervous, but relaxed.

After Song Yuchu relaxed, his words became more and more organized, Hongli listened to what he said, and began to think carefully.
