Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled

In a few days, Gong Daniu and Niu Hongyun will return to the mine. Old Man Niu wants them to get married as soon as possible, so he wants to reduce some customs.

Gong Daniu doesn't have many relatives in Ningchuan City. As a grown man, he wants to marry Niu Hongyun, but he probably doesn't understand anything.

So Ye Jintang could only ask Nanny Zhang and Nanny Liu to help with the arrangements. The wedding would be held six days later. The other procedures still had to be followed, but they did not need to be separated by too much time. They could be completed within three days.

Time was a bit tight, so Ye Jintang also became busy.

According to Gong Daniu's current official position, he could not afford much of a betrothal gift, but Ye Jintang did not want Niu Hongyun to feel too wronged, so she helped Gong Daniu add some gifts, and several other generals who were familiar with him also added some, so that he could finally afford the betrothal gift.

The wedding of Gong Daniu and Niu Hongyun was held in a hurry. The next day after the wedding, they met Ye Jintang and Xiao Mo together, and then went to the mine with a large amount of supplies.

"Finally I'm done."

Ye Jintang leaned on the soft pillow. She hadn't done anything in the past few days, but she felt like she was sleepy all day long.

"General Gong is so lucky to marry a woman like Madam Niu."

"Who says he isn't? Gong Daniu may look silly on weekdays, but he is actually a very lucky person."

As long as Gong Daniu doesn't act up and lives a good life with Niu Hongyun in the mine, their future life will definitely be good.

Ye Jintang and Nanny Zhang were talking about Gong Daniu when they heard Luzhu's voice coming from outside the door.

"My queen, there is news from the capital."

Luzhu ran into the house, panting, holding a large carrier pigeon.

"I haven't received any news from the capital for a long time."

Ye Jintang took the bamboo tube from Luzhu's hand with a little excitement, quickly opened the seal, took out the letter paper and read it at a glance.

Ever since the heavy snow blocked the roads last year, Ye Jintang has lost contact with the capital.

The weather is a little better now, and I unexpectedly received a letter from the capital.

Looking at the contents of the letter, Ye Jintang's expression gradually became solemn.

After Xiao Yi offered sacrifices to heaven on behalf of Emperor Jing, his reputation in the court grew higher and higher. In addition, Emperor Jing had been in poor health during the New Year, so after the New Year, many ministers in the court urged Emperor Jing to appoint a crown prince.

Now Emperor Jing had given in and had someone look up the date, choosing April 16th to formally enthrone Xiao Yi as the crown prince.

Faced with this news, Ye Jintang was not too surprised. Xiao Yi was just the male protagonist in the first half of the book. When he became emperor, it would be the beginning of his disaster. King Zheng, who was far away in the south, would teach him a good lesson.

She and Xiao Mo could watch the snipe and the clam fight each other in Ningchuan City, and they would wait for the fisherman to benefit.

This matter is of great importance, so Ye Jintang asked Luzhu to call Xiao Mo over.

After reading the letter, Xiao Mo's face looked a little ugly.

Although he knew that with the efforts of Imperial Noble Consort Dehui, Xiao Yi would become the crown prince sooner or later, he was somewhat caught off guard by the fact that it happened so quickly.

"Xiao Yi's mind is full of straw. He can't think of going out to suppress bandits. It seems that Imperial Noble Consort Dehui has done a lot for his position as Crown Prince."

"It's not easy for him to be the crown prince. As far as I know, Prince Zheng has always been eyeing the throne. His fiefdom is extremely rich. He has been gathering strength for so many years. I don't know how many troops he has. Your Highness, do you think he will just watch Xiao Yi sit firmly on the throne of crown prince?"

After hearing Ye Jintang say this, the unhappiness in Xiao Mo's heart instantly disappeared.

He laughed loudly and said, "How could I forget about Prince Zheng? He was the apple of the eye of the late Queen Mother. If Prince Zheng had not been young, the throne would not have fallen to my father."

Xiao Mo knew something about King Zheng's strength.

"On the day when the crown prince is enthroned, King Zheng will probably go to the capital to congratulate him. I wonder what kind of trouble they will cause. It's a pity that we are not in the capital to watch the show."

"Now is not the time to watch the show. Once the weather gets warmer in the first month of the lunar year, we have to focus on grain planting, road construction and other miscellaneous tasks. We will be busy."

Xiao Mo and Ye Jintang had already made plans for Ningchuan Prefecture. In the first three years, they had to break the old rules and make new plans. The responsibility on their shoulders was still very heavy.

"I have prepared wheat seeds. Once the roads outside the city become easier to travel, I will send people to distribute the seeds to farmers."

"Do you need me to send someone to you?"

"No, I have enough people. If not, I will ask you again."

Ye Jintang still has a lot of resources available, so transporting some seeds is not a problem for her.

It was still very cold in the city during the first month of the year. After being busy for several days, Ye Jintang became more and more tired and sleepy, so she had to stay in the house to rest.

But after resting for a few days, not only did my spirits not improve, but my appetite became worse and worse.

Some of the things she usually likes to eat, she now has no appetite at all at the first glance. On the contrary, the things she usually doesn't eat much, she suddenly likes them now.

"Madam Zhang, I want to eat pickled fish for lunch today. Add more pickled cabbage and chili peppers. The last time I made it, the taste was too bland."

When Nanny Zhang heard Ye Jintang say this, she couldn't help but frown.

No one knows where Ye Jintang bought the peppers. They looked bright red and inconspicuous, but when the kitchen staff put the peppers in the pickled fish for the first time that day, all the cooks were almost choked to death by the red peppers.

But even so, Ye Jintang felt it was not spicy enough.

"My lady, we already used a lot of red peppers to make the pickled fish last time. If you add more, I'm afraid the pickled fish will be inedible."

To this day, Aunt Zhang still remembers that she secretly tasted a piece of pickled fish with chopsticks. It was so spicy that she drank a pot of water and her mouth still felt spicy.

"Is it spicy? It tastes OK to me. Then add a little red pepper and pickled cabbage. Cut the carp meat a little thinner. If it's too thick, the fish slices won't be flavorful."

"Yes."

Aunt Zhang instructed the cook in the kitchen to make pickled fish according to Ye Jintang's request.

When the cook heard that red pepper was to be added, her whole body exploded.

"Do you need to add more red peppers? Last time, we put more than a dozen red peppers and our entire kitchen almost choked to death. After I made the pickled fish, I kept coughing for several days. I felt like my throat was filled with red peppers every day and it was so uncomfortable."

"If you add more pepper now, I'm afraid I'll faint on the spot."

The cook was almost crying. She really didn't know why there were such spicy red peppers in the world. The peppers she had eaten before were only slightly spicy.

"Don't complain, it's our queen who wants to eat it."

The cook had a bitter face, but finally nodded and agreed. At most she would have to cover her mouth and nose while making the sauerkraut fish.

But when she thought of the spiciness of the red pepper, she couldn't help but complain, "What's wrong with the queen recently? The queen used to have a light taste and rarely ate such strong-flavored dishes?"

"The pickled fish is sour and spicy. My face turns red after taking a bite. How did the queen eat a whole bowl of it without changing her expression?"
