Shen Yunjin's eyes lit up and he lifted the car curtain.

"Is it really possible, Your Majesty?"

Xiao Minshen smiled, stretched out his hand to her, and carried her onto the horse.

"A few days ago, there were too many people and it was inconvenient."

"Plus, I'm worried that your body won't be able to handle it."

Xiao Minshen explained in a low voice.

Shen Yunjin leaned in Xiao Minshen's arms, and Xiao Minshen hugged her and let the horse move forward slowly.

It is the season when corn is ripe on both sides of the road, and it looks very pleasing from a distance.

A little further away, there are patches of green, like lawns.

"Your Highness, what is that? Is it grass?" Shen Yunjin was not sure.

"That's rice. After removing the husk from its fruit, it becomes the staple food of the people here, rice."

Xiao Minshen explained to Shen Yunjin in a soft voice.

Shen Yunjin turned around and glanced at Xiao Minshen.

"Want to see?"

Shen Yunjin nodded.

Xiao Minshen took Shen Yunjin and rode horses to the rice field.

He first jumped off the horse, then carried Shen Yunjin down.

Only then did Shen Yunjin see that this crop was half a person's height.

It has long leaves with ears growing out from the middle.

Some are already bearing flat fruits, and some are still blooming.

Yang Liu and Cui Liu also came to Shen Yunjin's side.

"Master, this is rice?"

Cui Liu looked at the green plants in front of her curiously.

"That should be the one on this ear of corn."

Yang Liu reached out and plucked an ear of rice. "Is this rice? It doesn't look like rice at all."

Suddenly, a group of people appeared from all directions.

They all held tools such as hoes and sticks in their hands.

Everyone was staring at Shen Yunjin and the others as if they were thieves.

Xiao Minshen took a step forward calmly and blocked Shen Yunjin behind him.

The guards quickly gathered around and protected Xiao Minshen and the others in the middle.

When the villagers saw the soldiers, they picked up the tools in their hands and pointed them at Xiao Minshen and others.

After a while, a group of people came from a distance.

The person walking in front was a fat man with a fat head and big ears.

He was wearing a shiny satin suit and a melon-shaped hat.

Following behind him were several burly men.

He walked slowly to Xiao Minshen.

"Who are you? How dare you destroy my rice?"

Shunzi hurried forward and bowed to the fat man.

"I'm sorry, we were just passing by and didn't damage your fields."

"If you say no, then there is no?" The fat man's voice suddenly became sharp.

He rushed to Yang Liu and pointed at the ears of wheat in Yang Liu's hand.

"My millet! This is the fine variety I left behind!"

"Where did you come from? How dare you steal my grain?"

Yang Liu was stunned. She looked at the fat man in front of her in disbelief.

She is short and fat, and she is wearing a colorful silk dress. No matter how you look at her, she looks like a ball!

However, the ball just now unexpectedly ran in front of him at an astonishing speed!

Shunzi came over, blocked Yang Liu, and bowed to the fat man.

"Sir, our women have never seen this so-called millet, so we just plucked one."

"How about we give you one or two taels of silver as compensation?"

The fat man raised his neck, looked at Shunzi, and then looked at Xiao Minshen behind him.

He could tell at a glance that the clothes Xiao Minshen was wearing showed that he was either rich or noble.

His eyes rolled around.

"This piece of land of mine is full of good seeds! You want to get rid of me for just one tael of silver?"

Shunzi's expression changed, and then he put on a smile.

"Then how about this? We'll compensate you five taels. Is that okay?"

"Do you know that the rice in this girl's hand can be used to grow a good farmland?"

"After the seeds of one acre of good land are harvested, they can be used to plant one acre of good land."

"Just think about how many acres of good land can be planted with the seeds harvested from one acre of good land?"

The fat man counted while shaking his head.

He saw everyone staring at him in amazement.

He looked at Shunzi proudly.

"How much do you think you should pay?"

Yang Liu was so angry that she threw the rice in her hand, walked forward and grabbed the fat man by the collar.

Several strong men behind the fat man immediately stepped forward and snatched the fat man back from Yang Liu's hands.

The fat man smoothed his clothes carefully.

"Come here, arrest these troublemakers for me!"

"You destroyed my fields and even tried to beat me up. Today I will let you know how many eyes the Horse King has!"

The people behind the fat man all walked towards Shunzi and the others.

The other guards also hurriedly stood in front of Xiao Minshen and the others.

The atmosphere between the two sides was becoming tense.

Xiao Minshen stood up.

"who are you?"

"You said this piece of land is yours? Who can prove it?"

"Where's your headman? Call him over!"

The fat man opposite had a flash of guilt on his face.

He straightened his chest and stood out from behind the crowd.

"Who are you? How dare you question me like this?"

Xiao Minshen's face turned cold.

"Someone, slap this king in the face!"

Following the King of Qi's order, a figure floated in front of the fat man.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

After three slaps, the secret guard quietly sneaked back into the escort team.

The guards looked at each other.

When did such a powerful person appear among them?

Xiao Minshen looked at the fat man opposite him who was covering his face and trembling with fear.

"Why, you still haven't said it? Do you need me to slap you twice more?"

The fat man's eyes were rolling around.

Although Xiao Minshen in front of him had a good temperament and was dressed very luxuriously, the legendary prince and the person in front of him were not even close.

It is said in operas that when the prince goes out, he is carried in a sedan chair carried by eight people, with soldiers and officers leading the way.

Where is the prince who travels alone?

"How dare you, a commoner, pretend to be a prince!" The fat man felt that he had discovered the truth!

"Someone, go and ask the county magistrate to come over and tell him that there is a troublemaker pretending to be a prince here!"

A villager ran out quickly from the crowd.

"You rascal, why don't you hurry up and apologize to me? Maybe, if I'm happy, I can speak well of you and ask the county magistrate not to arrest you and put you in jail."

The fat man was very proud and looked at Xiao Minshen provocatively.

Xiao Minshen frowned.

"How dare you order the county magistrate to do something?"

There was murderous intent in Xiao Minshen's tone.

The fat man didn't hear it, but looked at Xiao Minshen with pride.

"What, are you scared?"

"You know, I am also a person of connections. If you offend me, you will be in big trouble!"

"This is the first time I've heard that an official of the imperial court would allow himself to be manipulated by an ordinary citizen. Could it be that the government office is owned by your family?"

The fat man held his stomach and laughed so hard that he fell backwards.
