After being scolded by Chu Heyi, Zheng Wenkang felt angry and wanted to smash something, but he found that he was standing on the edge of the field and there was nothing to smash at hand. He became even angrier and his eyes almost spit fire.

Chu Heyi seemed not to notice, and the smile on his face deepened: "Or is it that Lord Zheng feels that he is old and not as capable as the young people, so he wants to resign and rest, and give the position of Prime Minister to our Lord Xie who works for the country and the people?"

Without waiting for Zheng Wenkang to speak, Chu Heyi continued to retort: ​​"Master Zheng, there is no need to be so anxious. Master Xie still needs more experience. Besides, he is wholeheartedly working for the people and has no desire for the position of prime minister."

"You! You!" Zheng Wenkang swung his sleeves and sneered, "The Princess of Cheng'an County is really sharp-tongued! I won't argue with you!"

He looked at Xie Lin, "Master Xie spent a million taels of silver while chatting and laughing. Such courage is really admirable."

As he spoke, he thought of Yuan Yun's character again. Zheng Wenkang sneered in his heart and continued, "I hope that Sir Xie can win this bet. If he wins, he will get a talented person and a new and effective way to transplant rice. Otherwise, millions of taels of silver will be wasted. However, it can be regarded as a good thing for the villagers. Sir Xie must not regret it."

Xie Lin bowed and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your reminder. Xie Lin will never regret it."

Everyone thought that Yuan Yun was just playing and frolicking in the fields. He was a child of a wealthy family and had no worries about food and clothing, so playing and frolicking were of no consequence to him.

But no one knows how focused he is on fields and planting. Yuan Yun can study a new method day and night. How can others compare to this spirit?

When Yuan Yun was first sent to him, he thought it was the result of the struggle between the prime minister and the queen, and that she was sent to disgust him.

He asked Wangshan to investigate Yuanyue and found that Yuanyue was only abnormal in the eyes of normal people. They did not support Yuanyue's preferences, nor did they understand Yuanyue's persistence, so they thought that there was something wrong with him as a person.

Now, the Prime Minister probably has the same idea.

That's why I want to use words like "regret" to stimulate him.

Zheng Wenkang looked straight into his eyes, his gaze as sharp as a sword, as if he wanted to put pressure on Xie Lin layer by layer, forcing Xie Lin to bow his head and give up Yuan Yun's method of planting rice.

Xie Lin, however, looked back at him straight, without avoiding or lowering his head.

The silent contest seemed to sparkle in the sunlight, but Xie Lin never took a step back.

After an unknown amount of time, Zheng Wenkang stormed out in anger.

After he left, Xie Lin was busy gathering people to assist Wangshan in completing the registration and distributing the silver and money.

If there was not enough silver, they had to go to the bank to withdraw it. There were so many things to do and they were so complicated that everyone was so busy that they had no time to rest.

Xie Lin wants to promote Yuan Yun's rice planting method not just in one village, but to spread it from this village to the surrounding villages.

The news of distributing silver spread from one person to another and eventually reached every village. This time, there was no need for Xie Lin to persuade the village chief and then for the village chief to persuade the villagers. Everyone came to register spontaneously and took the initiative to plant rice according to the method proposed by Yuan Yun.

Chu Heyi originally came to return the jade pendant and say goodbye to Xie Lin, but now, seeing Xie Lin so busy, she took Baihua with her to help without hesitation.

The registration site was temporarily set up in the village, and at night, countless villagers came with torches.

The rice planting time is always very busy. The villagers don't mind working in the dark and still line up to come. Xie Lin can't let them wait too long, so he has to arrange two more groups of people to continue registering and distributing silver. In this way, they take turns, and Wangshan and the others can also have time to rest.

After everything was arranged, it was already midnight, and Xie Lin and Chu Heyi had a casual dinner at a farmer's house in the village.

Finally stopping to rest, Xie Lin saw that Chu Heyi's clothes were stained with dirt. Thinking of how she had been busy with him all day, he felt even more indebted and countless emotions of heartache surged in his heart.

When Xie Lin spoke, his voice was a little hoarse: "Everything has been arranged. Wang Shan will take the lead in the remaining matters. You should go back and rest early."

Chu Heyi stood facing the wind, the night wind blowing her clothes. She looked up at the moon. The moonlight was very beautiful tonight.

She turned her head to look at Xie Lin again, only to see the cold light falling on Xie Lin, giving him a layer of silver glow.

Chu Heyi looked at his perfect outline and flawless facial features. The mud stains on his clothes did not affect his unparalleled handsomeness at all.

She had a lot to say, but when she opened her lips, only one sentence came out: "Thank you, sir. I will be away for a long time. Please take care of yourself."

She bowed and said, "Goodbye."

After she finished speaking, she turned and left, walking into the boundless moonlight and into the endless darkness.

Xie Lin's emotions seemed to be stretched to the limit. He lifted his foot involuntarily, wanting to follow her footsteps. However, when his right foot landed on the ground, he suddenly remembered what Concubine Xie had said in the past.

Lady Xie said that he was born unwelcome, like a rat in the gutter, he was dirty and smelly, how could he be worthy of the sunny Chu Heyi?

How to match...

How to match!

Every word of Concubine Xie was like sharp arrows, shooting from all directions and nailing his feet to the ground, making him unable to move even a little bit.

Xie Lin, standing under the boundless moonlight, felt cold all over, and the white jade pendant in his hand was almost crushed by him.

In May, Chu Heyi left Shengjing City. Except Xie Lin, no one knew where she was going.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, the palace held a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. Xie Lin wore a dark green brocade robe and entered the palace to attend the banquet.

I heard that there is no shortage of young talents attending the banquet tonight, and the emperor and empress are interested in choosing a son-in-law for Princess Pingyang.
