Female Supreme: I was forcibly abducted by the Empress

厉江

The puppet carried a gorgeous sedan chair and walked on a wide and flat road. There were all kinds of carriages in front and behind, either carrying goods or tourists.

Farmers on both sides of the road were working hard to cultivate the fields, while some people were looking at the strange sedan curiously.

When the sun set, the two of them stood on the sedan chair, looking at the city wall appearing in the distance and the magnificent river bank not far away.

That is the most prosperous city in the Lijiang area, Jiejiang City, where the two masters guard. It is also the location of the largest wharf in Daqin. The wharf leads to the second fortress and to the South China Sea area, including the third fortress.

The two old ladies were wearing tattered clothes and straw hats on their heads. They stood in the fields, swinging their rusty hoes, and taking away a lot of mud. After working for a long time, a closer look revealed that they had not sweated a drop.

The old woman was turning over the soil when her husband next to her nudged her with his elbow. She turned her head in confusion and saw that his eyes were looking towards the road. Following his line of sight, she saw Luo Shi and his partner standing on the sedan chair, looking at them.

Yue Luo and his wife, the two masters of Li Jiang, lived in seclusion in Jiejiang City, an important grain-producing area of ​​Daqin. The word "seclusion" actually means guarding the city.

The two men jumped off the sedan chair and walked towards this side leisurely.

The Yue Luo couple looked at each other, put down their work, picked up the kettle on the pile of earth, and drank two bowls of water.

"Old man, how was the harvest last year?"

Qin Zipao's cold voice came from above. The two men stood on the pile of earth. They didn't look at them, but just looked at the civilians who were farming around them.

"Yes! Of course. Look, these sweet potatoes and potatoes are both incredibly high-yield crops! Two thousand kilograms per acre. We planted these treasures last year. How can the harvest not be high?"

The elderly man squatted down and picked up the sweet potatoes on the ground, speaking with great joy.

"Oh? Is this delicious?"

Qin Zipao asked.

The old woman quickly replied, "Of course it's delicious. You two can tell at a glance that they have an extraordinary origin. You know, this is a delicacy. The royal family specially sent people to various cities to promote the cooking methods of these foods. Whether it's roasted, boiled, sliced ​​and fried, it's delicious."

As she spoke, she smacked her lips twice.

"Tsk tsk, fried food is still the best, but the oil is too expensive. Even though the royal family has lowered the price before, we ordinary people still can't afford it."

After hearing this, Qin Zipao squatted down, picked up the sweet potatoes on the ground, and smiled happily.

"Then do you mind if I eat one of your sweet potatoes, old man?"

"Oh~ If the girl is delicious, try it. This sweet potato! You can eat it raw, but it's a pity that the potato can't. We were wondering what it would taste like if we ate it raw."

The old woman's face was all smiles.

Qin Zipao wiped off some dirt from the sweet potato, broke it in half, handed one half to Luo Shi, and took a bite. His mouth bulged.

I bit off a piece when it fell. Although it was a bit dry and hard, the sweetness inside was memorable.

"Old man, I heard before that you can't eat too much raw sweet potato. It's said to be bad for your stomach."

He swallowed it when he fell, took another bite, and reminded.

"Yes, yes. The big officials in the city often do propaganda."

Qin Zipao stood up, brushed the dirt off his hands, and took out a bottle from his sleeve.

"Old man, I won't eat your sweet potatoes for nothing. Here are two candies as payment for your sweet potatoes."

After she finished speaking, she threw the jade bottle in her hand to the two of them. The old woman was very agile and grabbed the jade bottle with one hand, with a smile on her face.

"Thank you, young lady. I haven't had candy in a long time. It is said that the candy produced by the royal family is definitely delicious. Today, the two of us are going to enjoy a feast."

Qin Zipao smiled, patted the non-existent dust off his butt, turned around and left with Luo Shi.

The two continued to work on the farm. The farmers who were peeking around saw that there was nothing to watch and continued to work hard.

"I didn't expect the Grandmaster to be so kind as to put aside his pride and farm."

When it was sunset, I looked through the window of the sedan chair at the two people busy in the distance, feeling a little emotional.

"I can sense that they don't have much life essence left. Even with the two pills I gave them, they can only live for ten years at most."

"Ten years?"

When he fell, he looked at the two people's backs with a dazed look in his eyes.

At night, after finishing their work, the two old men stayed in the thatched hut, opened the jade bottle, and looked at the two pills inside.

At sunset, the two of them stood on a small boat on the river, looking at the scenery on both sides of the Li River. In the middle of the two banks, there stood a stone bridge. The stone bridge was about a hundred meters long, connecting both banks. In this world with high military power, there should be nothing wrong with building such a long stone bridge, right?

The lights on both sides of the river were bright. Some students stood on the shore, chanting poems facing the river, while others sang operas, told stories, and performed acrobatics. It was a lively scene.

Luo Shi brought a pot of wine, and the two sat together on the leaf boat. Luo Shi poured himself a glass of wine, while Qin Zihan took a bottle of happy water with a straw inserted in it, and kept sipping it. Their feet were dangling in the water.

"A broad road leads to my home. My home is at the foot of Liangshan Mountain. The soil at the foot of the mountain is fertile. There are five acres of land! Five acres of good land with rapeseed flowers."

A melodious song came from a distance, attracting the attention of the two people. A figure was standing on a small boat, holding a long bamboo pole, and the boat was rowing slowly.

When I fell, I felt that the song sounded a little familiar, but the memory seemed to have been buried for a long time and I couldn't remember it no matter how hard I tried.

The singing on the boat was still ringing, the singing was a bit rough, or even heroic.

The singing here did not affect the people playing on the shore, but only attracted the attention of people in the sunset area.

The boat passed in front of Luo Shi, and Luo Shi could see the other person's face clearly in the darkness. It was a man, but he looked quite rough.

The man was about to row away when he and Luo Shi looked at each other. He paused for a moment, looked at the wine in Luo Shi's hand, and licked his lip.

He put down the bamboo pole in his hand and bowed to the two of them.

"Young lady, I will perform an acrobatic show for you. Can you give me the wine in your hand?"

He grinned as he fell, and threw the wine jug in his hand directly at him, but there was no lid on the bottle, so a lot of wine spilled out, and he didn't throw it accurately.

The big man narrowed his eyes, picked up the bamboo pole with one foot, and took a step forward. The strong storm blew past, and when it reappeared, the bamboo pole held the wine pot firmly on it. He withdrew his hand, took the wine pot, and returned to the boat at lightning speed.

When it fell, he clapped his hands in the distance.

"Young man, you have great skills!"

The big man glanced at the wine in the jug and found it was still full. He scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed about the word "young hero". He clasped his fists and bowed to Luo Shi and the other man.

"Thank you for the reward, sir."

Luo Shi shook his hand and said, "I'm not giving you the wine for free. I liked your previous singing. I'll give you this wine in exchange for singing it again!"

"A broad road leads to my home. My home is at the foot of Liangshan Mountain. The soil at the foot of the mountain is fertile. There are five acres of land! Five acres of good land with rapeseed flowers."

This time the singing attracted the people on the shore. Some of them laughed and shouted to the big man on the river:

"Hey, Brother Miao! Changzhou is safe now! If we row southwest, we will reach Liangshan!"
