Chapter 222 Don't Blame Bodhisattva

Yagyu was talking big words, thinking that this would be another entertaining thing.

As a result, the surrounding area suddenly became quiet. When they heard the name "Princess Xiao Li", no one laughed out loud.

Someone whispered:

"Princess Xiao Li governs well. The prosperity of Beidi and Guqi Prefecture now depends entirely on Princess Xiao Li. She is a good person."

"It's better not to blaspheme the Bodhisattva."

Although these refugees did not enjoy the tranquility of Beidi and Guqi Prefecture, their hearts were clear and the political achievements of Princess Xiao Li had been spread far and wide.

Those who have been to Beidi and Guqi Prefecture all say that Princess Xiaoli manages things well.

For those who have never been there, they deeply feel that under the rule of Princess Xiao Li, it must be a pure land on earth.

Even the many poor people staying here, regardless of whether they are from the third religion or the ninth stream, all want to stay in this market town for a short time and earn some money before going to settle down in the north.

Seeing that there was no way to joke around with Princess Li, Liu Sheng felt that it was boring, so he dropped a coin and left.

After that, Yagyu Sheng became more and more aggressive. Not only did he want to take Hou Pan's money and sleep with Hou Pan, he even asked Hou Pan to advise Yao Jun and give him an errand.

The heart of Hou Pan, a young woman in deep boudoir, was manipulated by Yagyu Sheng.

When Yao Jun came home, at nightfall, for the first time, he asked his mother to make a bowl of white fungus soup and knocked on Yao Jun's door.

The two of them have always slept in separate beds.

Even after the wedding, Yao Jun rarely went back to Yao's house. On the one hand, he was busy, but on the other hand, he really didn't want to face Hou Pan.

When Hou Pan came to see him today, he felt a little happy. He felt that so much time had passed and Hou Pan should have figured it out and finally accepted his fate.

He should also let go of his grudges and live a good life with Hou Pan.

Who would have known that as soon as Hou Pan opened his mouth, he asked Yao Jun to arrange an errand for a man named Yao Jun, preferably a leader with a free time.

Yao Jun frowned and said to Hou Pan:

"Who is this Yagyu? Why do you want to arrange errands for him?"

"He is a distant relative of our Prince Hou. You don't have to be suspicious about his identity. I can vouch for him."

Hou Pan said it with full sincerity, as Liu Sheng taught her to say these words.

Liu Sheng also said that singing opera for the rest of his life was not an option. He still wanted to fight for a family fortune so that he could be together with Hou Pan in an upright manner in the future.

So he wanted to be the steward of this market town, that is, the person under Yao Jun who had the power to manage the entire market town.

But before Hou Pan finished what Liu Sheng told her, Yao Jun shook his head.

"There are dedicated people responsible for every aspect of this market town. There is no free errand for your relative."

It wasn't Yao Jun's intention to tamper with Hou Pan, but the people in charge of this market town were all arranged by his master.

The people selected by Hua Jin can complement each other in all aspects, but they can also play a role in checking and balancing each other.

Any position cannot have more than one person or less than one person.

At this time, Hou Pan wanted to place a distant relative, and Yao Jun was also in a dilemma.

Hou Pan started crying again,

"You, the Yao family, have always been sorry to me. Although Tietou is not your biological child, who is your master? She just gave you a bastard, and you raised her as your eldest son. You are always busy and never

Pay attention to me."

"Now I only have this distant relative left, and you are not willing to help me. Does our Prince Hou's Mansion owe you?"

Originally, when Yao Jun saw Hou Pan crying, he tried to persuade her angrily, but when Hou Pan uttered the word "bastard" over and over again, his face became stern.

"Let me tell you the truth. The development of this market town to the scale it is today is all due to my master's advice. Tietou was raised by my master and he is my son. You are not allowed to say that Tietou is a bastard again.

He is not, he is my son!"

Hou Pan is not afraid of Yao Jun, an honest man at all. She has fallen deeply into the love network that Liu Sheng has spun for her, and now she just wants to do the things that Liu Sheng has asked her to do.

He patted the table and shouted:

"Your master, your master, who knows where this child came from? Maybe it was you and your master!"

Before he finished speaking, Yao Jun slapped Hou Pan, causing Hou Pan to fall to the ground.

Just after the beating, Yao Jun came to his senses. He remembered his master's instructions and vowed many times to treat Hou Pan well. So he looked at his hand in shock and couldn't believe that he had beaten Hou Pan.

The mother outside the door rushed in, crying and crying,

"Oh my God, you are beating the county master again. What evil has happened to our county master? County master, old slave, poor county master..."

The pitiful wailing started again, and the Yao family seemed to have become accustomed to the master and servant making mournful noises from time to time.

Mrs. Yao in the distance sighed heavily, she really didn't know whether marrying a county lord was a blessing or a curse.

Because Yao Jun felt guilty, he finally compromised and arranged a job for Yagyu Sheng to escort food and grass.

Hua Jin divided the entire Hushan County into two. The city guard army in the north joined forces with the King of Qi's army and killed Sun Guogong's backup. She then led the royal guards and Li Yunqing to ambush outside Yujia Village.

Because Sun Guogong hadn't shown up yet, nearly 50,000 soldiers were already surrounding Yujia Village.

Hua Jin was not in a hurry, and only arranged for Li Yunqing to carry out surprise attacks every day.

The baggage used by this group of troops every day was transferred through Yao Jun's market town.

Although Hua Jinqian has warned Yao Jun to pay attention to this route of escorting baggage and arrange for proper personnel, the only position that can be inserted currently is the position of escorting grain and fodder.

When Liu Shengchu learned that he had been assigned such an errand, he angrily shouted at Hou Pan:

"Didn't I say that? I want to be the collective steward, in charge! What do you think of me when you send me a shabby job like escorting food and fodder? Do you really love me?"

Hou Pan was so anxious that she burst into tears. She tried her best to explain that Yao Jun could not arrange the position of collective manager, and it was not his turn to arrange it. She could only hear her crying heartbreakingly.

"How could I not really love you? Liu Lang, you know my situation. Yao Jun doesn't really want to marry me at all. He only married me to improve his status. Liu Lang, I'm already trying my best.

I sought it for you, but he beat me and said that the actual person in charge of this town is not actually him, but his master, Liu Lang, you believe me."

"His master?"

The look in Yagyu's eyes was unclear, and he was muttering.

Regarding Yao Jun's master, Yagyu had actually heard of it. It was said that she was an old woman with gray hair, but her figure was like that of a girl.

Of course, there is also a lot of low-level news, saying that Yao Jun's master actually doesn't look like an old man at all except for his silver hair.

No matter what the news outside says, one thing Yagyu is certain of.

That is, Yao Jun's master has taken refuge with King Xiao Li.

Liu Sheng quickly thought about it in his mind. If he could follow Master Yao Jun's line and meet Li Yunqing all the way, wouldn't it be more prestigious than being a general manager?

He quickly weighed the pros and cons and accepted the job of escorting grain and fodder.

But Hou Pan is a useless woman, and Yagyu Sheng cannot take advantage of her.

After all, if she didn't accomplish what she was asked to do, she should be miserable for a few days.

After showing off to Hou Pan for several days, Liu Sheng, in Hou Pan's tearful eyes, mounted his horse and escorted the grain and grass to the direction of Yujia Village.

Along the way, he was thinking about how to meet the graceful old woman.

As long as he is allowed to meet Yao Jun's master, he can become the old woman's guest. When it comes to women, from ignorant girls to eighty-year-old women, Yagyu has never failed.

Yujiacun is not far from Yao Jun's market town.

That's why Hua Jincai set up Yao Jun's market town as a transit station.

If she wants to enter Hushan County, Yao Jun's market town is the best supply point.

Within a few days, Liu Sheng followed the team escorting grain and grass to the outskirts of Yujia Village where Hua Jin was located.

He arranged himself carefully, held a brocade box in his hand, and told the leader that this was a gift that Yao Jun wanted to give to his master, and he hoped to present it in person.

Because it was indeed Yao Jun who ordered Yao Sheng to join the team escorting the grain and fodder, so the team leader did not have too many suspicions and directly led Liu Sheng to Hua Jin.

Recently, Hua Jin especially likes to stand on a high place and look at the soldiers in the distance.

Sun Guogong sent 80,000 soldiers to the outside of Yujia Village. In the past few days, Li Yunqing's troops had killed many people in sneak attacks. So before Hua Jin could take action, several thousand of the soldiers surrounding Yujia Village fled.

When Liu Sheng saw her, she was standing on a high cliff with her back to everyone.

Even under the spring sunshine, the Samegetsu gauze on her body exudes little bits of bright starlight.

The tied up silver hair is blowing gently in the wind. Looking from the back, she looks both girlish and detached from the world.

Yagyu didn't look at anything else, but only looked at the clothes made of Samege gauze that Hua Jin was wearing. They were already priceless, not to mention that Hua Jin had a good figure, and except for his silver hair, he didn't look old at all.

This old woman made him more interested.

Isn't it better to get such an old woman than to get more money from the county master Hou Pan?

I saw Liu Sheng standing behind Hua Jin with a heroic face and a strong and powerful voice.

"Mother-in-law, these are the subordinates sent by Commander Yao to honor you."

As he spoke, he took out a wooden box that he had prepared earlier and held it in both hands.

Hua Jin put his hands behind his hands, his thoughts in his mind were interrupted, he turned around and glanced at the handsome Yagyu.

This man has thick eyebrows, big eyes, straight facial features, and a well-proportioned figure, but he lacks strength. His eyebrows, which were deliberately plucked, seem to have traces of artificial modification.

A grown man from ancient times, trimming his eyebrows???

Did he think he was Li Yunqing? He was born with a handsome face that didn't need to be repaired at all.

For a moment, Hua Jin felt unhappy with this man, but everyone has their own hobbies. Maybe some men like to trim their eyebrows?

Even if she doesn't like it, she should respect other people's preferences.

So Hua Jin didn't say anything, he just stretched out his fingertips and opened the wooden box held by Yagyu Sheng. When he saw it, there was a handful of loess inside.

"Commander Yao said that my mother-in-law was away fighting with King Xiao Li and could not return home for a long time. This is the soil beside the market town. This homeland has been waiting for my mother-in-law to come home."

Yagyu spoke passionately, with a sonorous tone, and tears immediately came to the corners of his eyes.

Hua Jin's brows furrowed even more.

"Put away all the useless stuff."

Hua Jin has never been pretentious about this. Her hometown is not in the market town of Yao Jun, nor in Guqi Prefecture or Beidi.

Not even in the last days of my previous life.

Where does she have a hometown? What does she need that thing for?

A person should always look forward, overcome the difficulties and problems in front of her, and build her own territory, which is her homeland.

Wherever she goes, there is her homeland.

Hua Jin did not expect that Yao Jun would give her such a handful of soil.

Yao Jun also learned to give gifts?

Hua Jin spoke in a bad tone,

"Go back and tell you, Commander Yao, don't give away soil next time, but gold, silver and real estate title deeds."

Since you want to give gifts, do something practical. She likes practical things.

Yagyu was speechless. This slap did not hit his flattery but instead hit his own face.

He held the wooden box in his hand, lowered his head and lowered his eyes. His body looked so neither humble nor overbearing.

But if you look closely, you can see that this man's lower body is stable, but not masculine. Although he is wearing a suit of armor, his forehead is covered with sweat. It is obvious that the heavy armor is a burden for this man.

Hua Jin raised her eyebrows and advised her kindly,

"When you go back, find another job. You can't bear the hardships of marching and fighting."

She couldn't understand why Yao Jun wanted a man who looked like an embroidered pillow to deliver luggage? Where was his brain?

When Liu Sheng heard this, he felt anxious. He hurriedly raised his eyes to look at Hua Jin, his eyes full of hopeful affection.

"Mother-in-law..."

Look at me, look at me quickly, it would be great for a handsome person like me to stay by your side and be your male favorite.

Hua Jin walked straight past Yagyu Sheng and stood in front of the captain of the baggage transport team.

"It's time for you guys in the baggage transport team to change."

It was her negligence. When she decided to grab the money, she left in a hurry, grabbed Li Yunqing and broke camp as soon as she told him to go. As a result, the logistics were not arranged well.

Nowadays, the composition of the baggage transport team is mixed. Most of them are ordinary men from market towns, and there are also a few guys from the Yao family.

The captain of the transportation team is a member of the Yao family.

Because they are not professionals, the baggage transport team is a big loophole. As long as you can find a good relationship, you can add people to the transport team.

Not to mention the previous flower brocade, now an embroidered pillow has entered the baggage transportation logistics.

She couldn't bear this.

The ancients said that before the soldiers and horses are moved, food and grass go first, which shows how important logistics is.

A reliable baggage transportation line can determine the outcome of a battle.

After finishing speaking, the captain of the baggage transport team suddenly turned pale, but he did not dare to show anything in front of Hua Jin.

He could only wait until Hua Jin left, then look at Liu Sheng with a pair of eyes full of resentment.

Yagyu joined the baggage transport team through the back door, and the whole team knew this.

Because the journey was not far, no one said anything to Yagyu even though he seemed to be too lazy to eat.

But now, just because of him, Hua Jin has to replace the entire transportation team. If such a fat job is lost like this, it's strange that the people in the transportation team don't hate Yagyu to death.

Yagyu didn't notice anything wrong with the captain's eyes at all. All his thoughts were focused on thinking about the "old woman" Hua Jin.

He has been in the world for a long time and has always been able to hang out with women. He also has a unique sharpness in looking at women.

This woman Hua Jin may not be as old as others think.

Yagyu followed the captain back to the stables. Seeing that everyone in the transportation team was feeding the horses, he approached the captain and inquired.

"Captain, you used to be a member of the Yao family. Do you know how our Commander Yao and his master met?"

The captain was holding his breath and said angrily:

"Why are you asking so many questions? You don't know your identity? I just ask you to deliver the baggage. What are you doing with so many things?"

He just held a handful of loess in front of his "mother-in-law", and he didn't even know what Yao Jun was thinking.

The Yao family is not short of money now. Gold can be melted down to make jewelry for Houpan County. How can you give it to your master with just a handful of dirt?

No wonder the "mother-in-law" is angry.

Liu Sheng choked and said:

"Hey, is this gunpowder? What's going on? Who am I? I am a relative of the Lord Hou Pan of the Prince Hou's Mansion. How dare you speak like this from someone in the Prince Hou's Mansion?"

In a sudden change, Liu Sheng changed from a distant relative of Prince Hou's residence to a member of Prince Hou's residence.

He moved out of Prince Hou's Mansion, and sure enough, the captain stopped talking.

I'm really pissed off, what the heck, he's so incompetent, he's got someone to take the blame for getting into trouble, he's got a pretty big identity.

Seeing that the captain was honest, Yagyu asked again:

"Now let me ask and you answer, how did Commander Yao know his master?"

The captain rolled his eyes,

"We met on the way to escape."

He was originally a clerk of the Yao family. Because of his reliable work, he was assigned to the baggage transport team. He is also very clear about the acquaintance between Yao Jun and Hua Jin.

But because he didn't know why Yagyu asked these questions, the captain just said nothing.

But based on what he said casually, Jiao Yagyu was at least certain that the "mother-in-law" was definitely not old and had no identity background.

"Mother-in-law" is Li Yunqing, who came to join her later.

Yagyu is an opera singer, and he knows a person's figure best. How could an old woman have such a young figure?

So is this "mother-in-law" some kind of monster? Otherwise, how could a young woman have white hair?

He grasped this key point, and that night, he made a fuss to see his "mother-in-law".

This time he went all out and grasped the "mother-in-law's" pain point, so he was sure to stay.

The news that Yagyu Sheng requested to see him quickly reached Hua Jin's camp.

She was looking at the map on the desk. After hearing this, she thought for a while before she remembered who this "Yagyu" was.

Not knowing what this person wanted to do, Hua Jin asked someone to bring Yagyu into her tent.

Because it was night and the campfire was brightly lit, when Yagyu was brought here, he washed himself clean and used some rose soap to make himself smell good.

He stood in front of Hua Jin, his eyes seemed to be able to discharge, looking at Hua Jin,

"Mother-in-law."

Hua Jin, who was sitting behind the desk, raised her head slightly.

"I heard you were making trouble."

"Yes, my subordinates are making trouble just to see my mother-in-law."

In this regard, Yagyu admitted generously. If he did not make trouble, he would be sent back to the market town tomorrow and his mission of escorting the baggage would be cancelled.

From then on, he could never see his "mother-in-law" again, and also lost the only opportunity to cling to King Xiao Li.

Hua Jin seemed a little surprised by his frankness. She sat in a very leisurely and lazy posture, looking mysterious and delicate against the backdrop of the black gauze skirt.

Yes, although her face cannot be seen, her figure and appearance can be said to be a beauty among women.

No matter how beautiful you are, you can still make a man fall head over heels.
