The four children listened to Lu Zhi's instructions and nodded seriously.
Li Tannian raised his lips and looked at Lu Zhi, then met Lu Zhi's gentle and smiling eyes.
The two looked at each other and smiled back at her, but didn't say much.
Even Li Tannian herself didn't realize that at this moment, she and Lu Zhi had an extraordinary closeness because of the inseparable bond between the four little ones.
At the end of August, the farm received a bumper harvest.
The farmers never imagined that this wasteland, which was originally devoid of production, could actually produce over a thousand kilograms per acre!
Li Tannian asked people to harvest at a yield of 900 kilograms per mu, and gave the rest to the farmers. For a while, the farm was filled with laughter and joy.
Equally happy were the soldiers of Qingzhou Camp.
The soldiers watched the bags of food being taken back one after another, feeling indescribable excitement in their hearts.
Qingzhou is far away from Shangjing, and Zhao Chen is not in power. Whenever the Ministry of War distributes food and fodder, it will deliberately withhold some. Therefore, there is always a period of time throughout the year when food and fodder are tight.
This time, they have such a large output, so they don’t have to worry so much!
Lu Zhi's heart grew hot when he looked at each of the soldiers, and he couldn't help but curl his lips.
His Ah Tan is indeed very powerful. He has benefited so many people with his own efforts!
No wonder she is so adorable!
When Lu Zhi thought of this, he thought of the scholar named Shen.
Speaking of which, that man had come to Azan several times intermittently these days, but he was always shot away by his people.
Lu Zhi didn't expect that the man would not forget to stalk her at such a time. He was so angry that he sent people to the Shen family to beat Shen's mother once. This time, it was quite effective. The man never appeared again.
Already.
Thinking about it, he should have honestly taken the paperwork and gone to Beijing to take up his post.
He had to be grateful that he was in a good mood this time, otherwise, it would really not be as simple as just tapping.
The days that followed were just as he imagined. He was in the camp during the day and returned to Li Tannian's place as soon as he was on duty, eating with her and the children.
At first, Li Tannian had no intention of keeping him. Later, with Lin Yueniang's help, he actually got his own hut. From then on, he never spent the night in the camp and went home on time every day.
In this remote corner, he, she and the four little ones spent a happy New Year together.
At the beginning of spring, an imperial edict was sent from Beijing, granting marriage to Li Jintang, the legitimate daughter of the Hou Mansion, and Zhao Chen, the third prince.
Marriage granted by the royal family is no child's play.
Wei Yinzhang made a fierce fuss over this and even had a fight with Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen was weak and was soon at a disadvantage. Wei Yinzhang vented his anger and calmed down, knowing that this matter was not theirs to decide, so he left immediately without saying a word.
Zhao Chen looked at his figure, and it was unclear whether he was happy or angry. Not long after, he called Li Tannian to have a secret talk.
Lu Zhi frowned when he saw this.
The man's intuition told him that there was a secret hidden between the third prince and Azan.
Over these days, the third prince has been showing great respect to Ah Tan. He can understand this as because Ah Tan helped the military households increase their food production.
But this time, what is he doing?
Lu Zhi felt a sense of crisis in his heart, and in the remaining days, he paid more and more attention to every move of Li Tannian and the third prince. However, apart from Li Tannian being busy with things in the fields every day, there seemed to be nothing strange about him.
He checked here and there, but couldn't find anything, so he suppressed this doubt in his heart again.
It was not until June that news came from Beijing that Zhao Chen was summoned to Beijing.
Today is not the New Year, so summoning the vassal king to the capital is definitely not a good sign.
As a result, Wei Yinzhang, who had been passive and slow in his work for a long time, was also shocked by the news.
He, Lu Zhi and his entourage almost subconsciously rushed to the third prince's camp. As a result, after they arrived, they were blocked from the camp by the third prince's guards.
This has never happened before, let alone under such an emergency situation.
Wei Yinzhang was the first to lose his temper. No matter what the third prince was doing inside, he twisted the collar of the third prince's guard and retorted: "How long have you stopped us? If we delay any longer, there will be something wrong with us."
, who will bear it?"
All the guards, you look at me, I look at you, they all have grim expressions on their faces.
"Little General Wei, unless we can't see the situation clearly, the Third Prince just said it well, no one can disturb him and Madam Li, there is nothing we can do."
"Who did you say was inside?" Lu Zhi's deep and urgent voice sounded!
Wei Yinzhang also forgot to speak, because he just heard clearly that the guard was indeed talking about Lady Li!
In this Qingzhou camp, besides Li Tannian, who else is Miss Li!
He suddenly sympathized with Lu Zhi. It was not enough to have a scholar in front of him, but now, there is another third prince!
Speaking of which, what's the difference between him and Lu Zhi? Does his Tangtang want to marry someone else?
Wei Yinzhang couldn't stand when he thought of Li Jintang.
Although he does not approve of the marriage between Zhao Chen and Tangtang, Zhao Chen still bears the name of Tangtang's fiancée. How could he do such a thing to feel sorry for Tangtang!
No matter what, he must seek justice for Tangtang!
Wei Yinzhang gritted his silver teeth and wanted to rush inside. However, someone was one step ahead of him.
It's Lu Zhi!
I saw him sullenly walking up quickly, knocking down Zhao Chen's guards in three strokes, quickly walking over, and raising the curtain.
At this moment, in the camp, Li Tannian and Zhao Chen were whispering something. They were sitting opposite each other, with a cup of tea in front of them. They looked like they were talking seriously about something.
Leng Buding heard footsteps coming, and they looked outside at the same time, only to see Lu Zhi walking over quickly, and then Wei Yinzhang's angry voice sounded.
"Zhao Chen! If you don't like Tangtang, you reject her marriage to you. What's going on with you getting entangled with other women behind her back like this? I can tell you, if you dare
If you do something sorry for Tangtang, I, Wei Yinzhang, will never be done with you!"
Zhao Chen is a member of the royal family, and Wei Yinzhang has never given him face like this.
Therefore, when Wei Yinzhang finished his speech, except for Li Tannian's sneer, everyone present held their breath and did not dare to speak.
Lu Zhi was the most sober-minded and had just impulsively come in. Now, although he still didn't like the third prince being alone with Ah Tan, he also understood that Ah Tan was not the kind of casual person. Thinking about it, he had indeed misunderstood her.
He frowned and turned to look at Wei Yinzhang, subconsciously wanting to protect her or declare his sovereignty. He said coolly: "Ah Tan is my wife. General Wei, please be more careful in your words."
Wei Yinzhang almost laughed angrily at him.
"You are still protecting her now. That's not what you were thinking when you were outside!" After a pause, he thought again, "What's more, she is a peasant woman, what can she say to the third prince?
Yes, was this the time when we bumped into each other, or the time when we didn’t bump into each other?”
"Be respectful, General Wei! Without my wife, the army would not be able to store so much food!"
Lu Zhi's words made Wei Yinzhang speechless for a moment. He knew how good Li Tannian was, but no matter how good he was, he couldn't bully his cousin!
I wanted to say something more, but Zhao Chen stood up slowly: "Yinyin is my adopted sister..."
