Ouyang Jinhua looked at the eagle eating leisurely in the house and asked curiously: "When did this guy come back?"
The boy who was waiting in the room quickly replied: "Back to your lord, my servant came here early in the morning and it was already there. I don't know when it came."
Ouyang Jinhua nodded and walked towards Ouyang Ming's yard.
When Ouyang Jinhua arrived at Ouyang Ming's yard, Ouyang Ming was reading a military book.
At this time, there are countless eyes staring at their palace.
Since Ouyang Ming lied about being seriously injured due to poisoning, he naturally canceled his morning martial arts practice and could only read a book to pass the time.
"Tomorrow."
Ouyang Ming stood up and welcomed Ouyang Jinhua into the room.
Ouyang Jinhua asked with concern: "Are you feeling better?"
Ouyang Ming smiled and replied: "Thank you for your concern, father. I am already in good health."
Hearing this, Ouyang Jinhua patted him gently on the shoulder and asked: "I just saw the eagle come back. What message did it bring back?'
When Ouyang Ming heard his father ask about this matter, the corners of Ouyang Ming's mouth curled up. He smiled and said, "It is true that he came back with an important letter from the south."
Seeing his son's radiant smile, Ouyang Jinhua guessed: "Is it the letter from Miss Jiang you mentioned?"
Ouyang Ming nodded and confirmed what he said, "It is indeed her, but my father will definitely be extremely happy when he sees the content of this letter."
While he was talking, Ouyang Ming had already taken out the letter and handed it to Ouyang Jinhua.
"I was supposed to send it to my father, but I haven't gone there yet. Now that my father is here, let's take a look here." Ouyang Jinhua took the letter hesitantly, feeling puzzled.
What did his son think of the letter written by Miss Jiang to him? Was it because he wanted to show affection?
With doubts, Ouyang Jinhua unfolded the letter and glanced at it.
At this glance, Ouyang Jinhua sat up straight and started reading from the first line seriously.
An unexploited mine was discovered, and the girl also said in the letter that she had a way to improve the purity of the pig iron.
And that girl actually meant to leave the mine to his son and not report it to the court?!!!
He slowly raised his head, looked at Ouyang Ming and asked, "Does this girl know how big the reward will be if she reports the discovered mine to the court?"
Ouyang Jinhua looked at Ouyang Ming with doubts in his eyes. His son wouldn't have brainwashed the girl, right? For such a big mine, he didn't even think about reporting it to the court in exchange for a reward, but he directly said that he would give it to Ming'er?
Although he also likes to see this result.
Ouyang Ming smiled and replied: "Zhiyue is smart, so she naturally knows that reporting to the court will be rewarded."
In today's world, there is no peace inside and outside the Wu Dynasty, and weapons have become a top priority. Zhiyue will not know what it means to report a mine.
The silver bounty is still small, but if it is reported to such a large mine, it might benefit the brothers in the family.
However, Zhiyue still chose to give the mine to him.
Ouyang Ming was overjoyed, with pride on his face. Ouyang Jinhua felt that he couldn't even see it.
But back to business, Ouyang Jinhua asked seriously: "Then if you use it well, it will be a big help. What are you going to do?"
Ouyang Ming looked outside through the window and said, "My father has craftsmen he can trust. I want to give two to Zhiyue to help her study together."
"I'll leave this matter to Li Da and ask him to take the person directly to Miss Jiang."
"Okay, then I'll trouble my father."
"There is no need to be so polite between you and me, father and son."
The two discussed the situation in Beijing together for a while before Ouyang Jinhua got up and left.
He stood up and said, "Your mother has been in poor health recently. She is probably worried about your sister. I will also tell her about the discovery of the mine to make her happy."
Ouyang Ming's mother, Shen Shiying, was also a hero among women. During these years of guarding the border, the only thing that frightened the barbarians besides King An was Shen Shiying's name.
It's just that the border environment was not good, and Shen Shiying was more desperate than Ouyang Jinhua in fighting, so she fell ill at a young age.
This year, a series of disasters hit Prince An's Mansion, and Shen Shiying's health became even worse.
Ouyang Jinhua was recruited by various princes. If he failed to recruit, he was put under house arrest here.
Ouyang Ming's whereabouts are unknown, Ouyang Xue was forcibly taken to the palace, and her parents' family has been suppressed this year. The combination of these things has completely crushed Shen Shiying's body. Now she needs to take medicine every day to feel better.
After Ouyang Jinhua left, Ouyang Ming stood in the courtyard, looking in the direction of the palace from a distance.
At this time, the palace was in a secluded and somewhat desolate palace.
After Ouyang Xue was brought into the palace, the nobles above did not give her any clear instructions on where to live.
The eunuch could only leave her to a beautiful woman.
This beauty did have a kind heart. When she saw the poor little Ouyang Xue being brought into the palace alone, she did not abuse her.
If she doesn't abuse her, others will abuse her.
At this time, Ouyang Xue was surrounded and pushed by several boys and girls of similar age.
A half-grown boy pushed Ouyang Xue and mocked: "Hey, isn't this the little princess? Why are you here alone?"
Ouyang Snowman was so young that he staggered when he was pushed, and the cake in his hand fell to the ground.
The cakes were given to her by the beauty in the palace. She had no one to care about or ask questions in the palace, and she was never given more meals.
She hasn't starved to death yet, thanks to the beauty in the palace who kindly gave her something to eat. The pastry was just given to her by the beauty, but it was knocked away before she could eat it.
Ouyang Xue looked at the cakes that fell on the ground and bent down to pick them up.
The moment Ouyang Xue caught the pastry, an embroidered shoe stepped on it, including the pastry and her hands.
Ouyang Xue looked up and saw that she was the fifth princess, the younger sister of the fourth prince. She usually liked to bully her.
There was stubbornness in her eyes, and she wanted to take her hand out, but instead of lifting her foot, the fifth princess twisted the shoe around her hand.
Ouyang Xue's hands turned red instantly, and there were some scars from being rubbed by the soles of her shoes.
The fifth princess covered her mouth and blamed her: "Hey, why are you so careless? You actually put your hand under my shoe, which hurt my feet."
Seeing Ouyang Xue's fierce eyes, the fifth princess felt unhappy and cursed: "Why are you staring? If you stare at me again, I will dig out your eyeballs."
After saying that, he kicked Ouyang Xue down and sat on the ground.
Ouyang Xue, whose hands were free, looked like a ferocious cub, getting up and pushing towards the fifth princess.
Although Ouyang Xue was young, she had trained with her parents and elder brothers before returning to Beijing. The fifth princess had been pampered and raised in the palace, but she had never experienced such a forceful push, and she rolled directly to the side.
