Chapter 146 Giving Gifts
"Do you think he still has the brains of an emperor? Giving the city away must be because he did something stupid and offended the emperor of Beiyun."
When the staff heard what the eldest princess said, they frowned and lowered their heads in thought.
"Beiyun was so weak in the past and had to pay tribute to our Qi State every year. This time they were able to defeat Qi State just by luck. They just seized the initiative."
When the princess heard the aide's arrogant words, she turned her head and glanced at him. Why did she feel that this aide was also a little stupid?
How could he say such confusing words?
It's already this late and you still don't know where you are.
The eldest princess looked at the aide calmly. The aide felt the eldest princess's inquiring gaze and felt a little confused.
What was the eldest princess’ reaction? Did he say something wrong?
He couldn't help but ask out loud with some confusion.
"Princess?"
The eldest princess curled up a faint smile at the corner of her mouth. She suddenly leaned close to the aide's cheek and spoke in a gentle tone.
"I asked you to come here so that you can help me achieve great things, not to let you learn the short-sightedness of my foolish father."
"Beiyun has never paid tribute to Qi. Their late emperor and father were in the same boat. But since Emperor Yuan Sheng came to power, Beiyun has changed."
When the aide heard the eldest princess's calm tone with a hint of murderous intent, he quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Princess, please spare my life. I was a little ignorant and will never do it again next time."
The eldest princess looked at the man kneeling down and begging for mercy. He looked terrified on the surface, but there was a hint of arrogance in his eyes.
She gave a mocking smile.
These stinky men, deep down, believe that women can't hold up half the sky.
Even giving her advice was just a perfunctory effort to make a living.
But why can’t women think about the Imperial Temple?
She insisted on doing so.
She wanted women's skirts to flutter freely in Qi, rather than becoming anyone's appendage.
The head lady-in-charge standing behind the eldest princess was so angry at how perfunctory and careless this man was, that she stepped forward and was about to scold him.
The eldest princess held her back and shook her head gently at her.
The head lady-in-charge didn't know why the eldest princess didn't allow her to scold, so she swallowed the words she was about to say and returned to her original position.
The eldest princess smiled softly at her, but her expression turned cold when she looked at the person kneeling on the ground.
If it wasn't useful, why would she put up with this man's nonsense over and over again?
The eldest princess spoke in a dignified tone.
"I will only forgive you this time. If you say something so stupid again next time, I will make you my pet's food."
The staff were finally a little scared this time. Who would be willing to go?
When he first came to the princess's mansion, he was just trying to make a living.
He didn't take anything seriously about what the eldest princess said about helping her get to that position.
I just thought that Her Royal Highness, the princess who was raised in the deep palace and enjoyed the emperor's favor, was joking.
Besides, this world is always a man's world, what is the point of a princess coming here to wipe his feet?
Wouldn't it be good to just stay at home and take care of your husband and children?
He just responded respectfully to her questions.
When he was among the common people, he had always heard that the eldest princess had a group of pets, whom she loved very much and even had people specially feed them?
At that time, he also lamented that his life was worse than that of the animals in rich people's homes.
I only found out after I came to the princess's mansion.
What kind of spoiled princess would keep a group of crocodiles in her own palace?
What do you mean by feeding people specifically? That's clearly treating people as food.
The aide came to his senses, kowtowed, and stood up, his tone more respectful than before.
"Your Highness, I will make up for my crime with my merits, and I will definitely live up to your expectations."
The eldest princess looked at him inquiringly again, turned around to look at the flowers in the garden, waved her hand, and motioned him to go down.
The staff member breathed a sigh of relief, as he almost lost his life.
He stood up, bowed respectfully to the eldest princess, and walked out.
"I hope you can satisfy me."
The eldest princess' words came from afar, and he bowed again and nodded.
After watching him walk away, the eldest princess murmured to the lady-in-waiting behind her.
"Send someone to keep an eye on him."
The female officer in charge nodded and went down to make the arrangements.
The eldest princess sighed.
We will have to deal with Beiyun from now on. The person in power there is really not simple.
When she mentioned this matter, Mo Jinyi was walking slowly on the way back to the capital with Mo Sheng and others.
Mo Sheng, who was held in his arms and sitting in the carriage, looked at the people from far away in the border who came to see them off.
Although they were obviously poor, they still had innocent smiles on their faces as they delivered the limited food to the soldiers in the army.
Not only was he not afraid of these hot-blooded soldiers, he also interacted with them and pushed and shoved them.
"Young man, there is nothing good in my house. This is a rabbit my husband hunted in the mountains. Take it and treat it as a snack."
The soldier whose arms were stuffed with things by her blushed, and he shook his head in panic, wanting to return the things in his hand to the lady.
Seeing this, other soldiers rushed over to help.
"Auntie, we can't accept it. You can barely afford to eat, and if you give us the food, what will you eat?"
The old lady totally ignored him and kept stuffing it in as much as she could.
"Oh, don't worry. How can we find food? Besides, it's almost spring now. New food will be available soon."
"You guys fight so hard, you need to get enough nutrition." The old lady was a good farm worker and had more strength than the average person. For a while, the soldiers were helpless against her.
"But, but...we really can't have it."
Seeing that they were not going to listen to her at all, the old lady suddenly lay on the ground and started rolling around.
"Oh my, Auntie, I just wanted to thank these guys for their victory and send them some food, but these guys despised our food and refused to accept any of it. Auntie, I feel so sad."
These people were dumbfounded for a moment when they saw that the old lady had lost all her dignity and started crying on the ground.
Suddenly, they felt everyone's attention on them and their faces turned red.
He was at a loss as to what to do and wanted to help the old lady up.
Compromised to the aunt.
"Okay, okay, Auntie, please get up first, we'll clean it up, we'll clean it up."
When the old lady saw that they were willing to accept it, she walked off the ground and got up.
He stuffed the things into their hands and ran away.
The other people who were giving gifts saw this lady's successful operation and started to follow her example.
[What a harmonious relationship between the military and the people]
Mo Jinyi was also looking at the harmonious scene outside, a faint smile unconsciously appearing on his face.
Since it has come to this, let them take it.
Mo Jinyi called Li Desheng and asked him to pass on the message.
