When the Gyeonggi area fled last year, the population basically moved south.

A blizzard fell last winter, and the earth was nourished by snow. This year, when the spring of this year, a small number of people were reluctant to leave their home business and returned to the capital.

However, this population is distributed in the Gyeonggi area, like a handful of sesame seeds scattered into the soil, and it is basically difficult to find people.

Ding Dazhuang and his soldiers turned the ground and sowed seeds without any scruples, because there was no one to cultivate large fields outside the capital, so they could cultivate the land and sow seeds at will.

The soldiers turned the ground faster than the oxen. On the vast fields, teams of soldiers stood in line and waved their hoes to overturn the ground with a command. The efficiency was really great.

"You said that if this vast land could be divided into more than a few hundred acres of me, I would be a landlord and wait for the autumn harvest, and my life would be stable."

"Then try to kill the enemy and make meritorious service. You will kill enough enemies. Maybe the princess will really reward you with hundreds of acres of land and let you marry a wife and live the life of a landlord."

"Ha ha."

The other soldiers who dug the ground burst into laughter when they heard this!

This wish is beautiful, they can dream at night, dream for one night.

"It is not easy to make contributions. As long as you are very skilled, you will fight bravely on the battlefield and make great achievements and promotions. But at present, we will be busy with farming first, and you will not get a chance to make contributions!"

"What can I do if I don't farm? You must know that food is the most important thing for people. The drought in the first three years has been gone for three years. If we don't follow the seasons this year, you can wait to eat soil in autumn!"

"We can go to the territory of the rebels next door to grab it! It is hard to grow grain by ourselves and there is not much harvest."

"You know you have no knowledge after hearing what you said. I ask you, everyone has no surplus food at home. Who are you going to grab it? Who are you going to steal it?"

"Do it yourself and have enough food and clothing, don't just think about getting something for nothing all day long. Do you know that your idea is very dangerous!"

"Okay, the landlord's family has no surplus food. Everyone should work quickly and wait until the place is planted. The princess may have to take us to sweep the battlefield and make achievements."

"Brother Cui, do you mean that after we finish farming, the princess will take us to steal the rebel territory?"

"There is no clear statement above. I guess these are. Don't be too lazy, work quickly!"

Ding Dazhuang was busy with farming and was unable to do anything.

Xia Jing was also overwhelmed by the complicated government affairs while sitting in the palace.

Forgive her, she is a person who acts more than verbal in the end of the world. She really doesn’t have much patience to let her come here to handle government affairs.

Hongmei saw her pressing her temples and said carelessly: "The princess will take a rest when she is tired. I will go to the kitchen to bring a bowl of tremella soup to make your mouth sweet."

Xia Jing leaned on the back of the chair and waved her hand. When Hongmei left, her eyes inadvertently fell on Ye Fei who was standing beside her.

"princess?"

Ye Fei lowered his head and quickly checked his clothes, no problem.

After sitting for an hour or two to deal with government affairs, Xia Jing was so tired that her back was sore. She leaned obliquely on the back of the chair, supporting her cheek with one hand and hooking her hand at him.

Ye Fei hesitated for a moment and walked forward: "Does the princess have something to give?"

Xia Jing stared at his tall figure and handsome face, and sighed slightly in her heart.

"princess?"

"Well, go and find Wei Dong!" Xia Jing slowly closed her eyes and put her feet on the pedal board.

Seeing that she closed her eyes and rested, Ye Fei did not dare to disturb her, so he turned around and left the study room and told his subordinates to take the time, so he went to the guards' dormitory.

Wei Dong was on night shift last night. He had just fallen asleep for a while and was sleeping soundly. He was proposing to the girl he liked in his dream. The girl's family didn't like him, and despised him for not being able to support his future wife. His brother-in-law even kicked him away.

Flying out of the door, he fell to the ground hard, and his butt almost fell into two pieces.

"Ouch!"

The pain woke Wei Dong up from his dream, and when he opened his eyes, he looked at Ye Fei with a pair of playful eyes.

"Oh, I'll go!"

After a roll, Wei Dong turned to the inside of the bed and glared: "What do you want to do if you are so close to my face?"

"Awaken?" Ye Fei looked at him with a smile: "What kind of beautiful dreams are you having? Your saliva is flowing out?"

Wei Dong was not fooled and wiped his mouth. He frowned and asked, "How do you know that I am having a beautiful dream, what if it is a nightmare?"

"I'll be unable to wake up if it's a nightmare. I guess I must have had a beautiful dream and didn't want to wake up!" Ye Fei turned around and found a chair to sit down.

Wei Dong rubbed his buttocks, came back to his senses, and said angrily: "It's you who kicked me!"

Ye Fei curled the corner of his mouth slightly, "When you dream of someone kicking you?"

Wei Dong: "."

He lifted the quilt and jumped out of bed, poured himself a glass of water, and then asked, "Tell me, what's the matter with me?"

Speaking of the serious matter, Ye Fei also corrected his attitude and said truthfully: "The princess is looking for you!"

"Damn! Why didn't you say it earlier?"

They both still spend time here.

Wei Dong bent down and picked up the cloth shoes on the ground and threw them towards Ye Fei's face.

Ye Fei tilted his body slightly to the side and easily avoided, "Hey, I said, why are you so angry recently?"

Wei Dong didn't bother to pay attention to him, so he quickly put on his coat, combed his hair, and changed into a pair of new shoes before leaving the door.

"No wonder you boy dared to throw me with your shoes. It turned out that you bought new shoes!"

The envy that Ye Fei's eyes showed was not a lie, he was really envious. Since they came to the Gyeonggi area, it was particularly difficult for them to buy a pair of underwear or underwear, because there were not many people in the entire Gyeonggi area, so where did the goods come from?

Beidi retreated to the grassland and took away a small number of people who had returned to the capital.

Xia Jing's soldiers only saved a smaller number of people, and the number of women among these people was even smaller.

In this way, the needlework in their team was idle, and some skilled soldiers would sew clothes on their own.

But most soldiers did not light up this skill, and their clothes were torn to stare at them.

"Don't worry about it, this is the last pair I brought from Lingnan!" Wei Dong shook the broken hair that fell on his forehead and asked with a smile: "Hey, do you know what the princess is looking for me for?"

"I don't know!" Ye Fei walked over him and walked out of the door first.

Wei Dong smiled and hurriedly followed.

"Princess, Wei Dong and Ye Fei are here." Hongmei came in to remind.

Xia Jing drank the last sip of Tremella soup and said, "Let them come in."

Two guards with similar figures walked in. Due to their different personalities, they each had their own strengths. They looked pleasing to the eye and pleasing to the eye.

I just don’t know which girl will be cheaper in the future?

"My subordinate Wei Dong has met the princess."

"No need to be polite, sit down."

When the maid got tea, Xia Jing asked, "If I remember correctly, Wei Dong, you should have passed the exam for fame and fortune?"

Speaking of fame and fortune, Wei Dong felt guilty: "My subordinates failed their parents' expectations and only took the exam for scholars. Later, when they were preparing for the exam for the government, they encountered many years of drought and had no chance to take the exam for the government."

Xia Jing nodded: "It's a pity, but in life, there is not only the path of the imperial examination. If the imperial examination road collapses, we can find another way. There is always a road leading to the peak in the world, right?"

This was the first time Wei Dong heard this bowl of spiritual chicken soup. He was stunned for a moment and smiled and said, "It's reasonable, thank you for your guidance."

Xia Jing smiled: "We have occupied Gyeonggi, and in fact, there is only an empty shell left in the Gyeonggi area. If we want to make Gyeonggi area prosperous, we still need to work hard on multiple sides."

"The former officials in the Gyeonggi area moved south with the court, which led to no one handling of government affairs in the Gyeonggi area."

"I'm the only one who has been dealing with these days. After handling it for a few days, I almost exhausted me to death, but my efficiency is very low. So I'm thinking about asking you to help me."

Xia Jing's words shocked Wei Dong: "Princess, my subordinates are just scholars. It's okay to help you handle letters. If you want to handle government affairs, I'm afraid you can't bear this important task."

"No one is born to know. If you don't understand, please ask. Let's learn slowly. And according to my observation, your ability is not bad." As Xia Jing said, she smiled and looked at him: "There is still fame and fame that cannot be equated with ability. Don't let scholars' fame limit your ability. I'm optimistic about you!"

After hearing the last sentence, Wei Dong wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh. This was a mess

Ye Fei looked envious. He stood beside him and saw his way of laughing or crying, and he wanted to step forward and punch him twice!

Xia Jing didn't care about Wei Dong's mood, and pushed all the government affairs in the Gyeonggi area to him that day.

After a few days of busy schedule, Wei Dong realized the abnormality, that is, how did the princess give him all the government affairs in the Gyeonggi area, and the princess ignored everything and became the boss of the hand.

The cement plant in the Gyeonggi area was successfully put into production under the management of Wei Dong.

The cement produced can temporarily supply the repair of the city walls and the palace.

If there are more, Xia Jing wants to accumulate it. When the city wall and the palace are repaired, she will send someone to build several major roads in the capital into cement roads.

The capital city in the north is different from the Lingnan Prefecture City in the south. Bluestone slabs are paved in the main streets in Lingnan City. In the north, several main roads are not paved in the main roads, but the main roads are also yellow dit roads.

Xia Jing found out from her memory and knew why these main roads were paved with yellow mud.

Because every time the royal family has a large-scale ancestor worship or emperor travel, in order to ensure the royal decency, Zhuque Street will require cleaning, loess padding and water-cleaning streets.

The major main roads in the capital are much higher than the other streets.

If such a thick loess has been laid over the years, if it encounters continuous rainy days, the roads in the capital will be muddy.

Although Xia Jing can travel by carriage on rainy days, she just feels unhappy when she looks on the muddy road.

If all the streets in the capital are paved with cement roads, it will greatly facilitate people's travel.
