Fu Huang: Husband, here is a ginseng
Chapter 257 Eunuch Wang Arrives at the Border
On this day, Eunuch Wang came to the border with the emperor's edict.
The imperial edict said that if the war was won and the Tatar barbarians were driven out, Murong Yuanbo would be transferred back to the capital.
He also said that the imperial court was willing to purchase the rice seeds from Princess Xiangyun at a high price.
"Eunuch Wang, tell the emperor that if the grain seeds are given to the court for free, the court must also give them to the people for free."
Gao Zhijun said to Eunuch Wang.
She never thought of collecting money from the court. The reason she experimented with hybrid rice was to ensure that the people of Daliang had enough food to eat. Otherwise, she would just grow some rice.
"My daughter, why don't you want the silver? The treasury has plenty of silver, and the emperor also has a lot of silver. What's wrong with asking for some?"
Murong Yuanbo disagreed with Gao Zhijun's approach. He believed that his daughter must not suffer a loss from growing crops, even if it was the emperor.
"Dad, when we first experimented with hybrid rice, it was to allow the people to have enough food to eat and live a good life. How can you forget the original intention for the sake of money? Besides, my daughter has ice, rouge shop, and forget-worry shop. The profits from these shops are enough to cover our expenses."
Gao Zhijun said, "The profits from these shops are enough to cover the expenses of the clinic. That's enough."
"Well, my daughter will say whatever she wants. Anyway, the general's mansion has enough money for her to spend."
When Murong Yuanbo heard his daughter say this, he stopped worrying about it. After all, the general's mansion had enough money for his daughter to spend, and it didn't matter if she spent it for the rest of her life.
"My lord, I will report the truth to the emperor."
Eunuch Wang said with admiration.
"Thank you very much, eunuch. When are you going back? Why don't you take Jinqian with you? We should be able to catch up with the imperial examination."
Gao Zhijun thought of Huo Jinqian and wanted to ask Eunuch Wang to send Jinqian back to Beijing. He brought all the masters of the palace with him, so she could rest assured about his safety.
"Zhijun, I won't go back. If I can't take the exam this year, I'll take it next year. Besides, we agreed to go to the capital together. How can I abandon you and go to the capital at this critical moment? Do you want me to be a person who breaks my promise?"
Huo Jinqian refused.
He couldn't let Zhijun stay here, he was worried about going to the capital.
"You are too kind. How can you say that you are breaking your promise? This is not a special case. You go back and take the exam first. I will go to the capital in a while."
Gao Zhijun persuaded.
How can such a grown man be as clingy as a child?
"How long is a period of time?"
Huo Jinqian asked Gao Zhijun.
"It could be as fast as one month, or as slow as two months."
Gao Zhijun gave an approximate date.
With ten crossbows and grenades, the battle should be over in ten days. We still have to stay behind to deal with the follow-up matters, which will take some time.
"No, I'm not going to the capital."
Two months was too long and he didn't want to go to the capital.
There were too many unknown factors in the past two months, and he was worried.
"Think about your grandparents, uncle and aunt. They have just arrived in Beijing and are unfamiliar with life. Without us around, they must be confused and uncomfortable. You have to go back and take care of them."
Seeing his firm attitude, Gao Zhijun decided to appeal to his emotions and reason with him.
"This, this, but I'm worried about you!"
Huo Jinqian thought of his grandparents, parents and others, and became a little shaken.
When he thought that Gao Zhijun might be in danger if she stayed here, he didn't want to go to the capital.
"As for me, don't worry. I have my father and elder brother to protect me. I also have the ability to protect myself. Are you still worried? Think about your mother. You don't want to take revenge. Only if you pass the exam will you be able to fight against them."
Seeing that Huo Jinqian seemed a little shaken, Gao Zhijun continued to persuade him.
"Well, okay! You must be careful and go to the capital safely. I will wait for you to come back in the capital."
Huo Jinqian finally gave up. Zhijun was right. Only by passing the imperial examination could he avenge his mother.
"Princess, Master Huo, because of the war, the emperor has changed the autumn examination to October. Master Huo can go to the capital with you."
Eunuch Wang told Gao Zhijun and Huo Jinqian that the emperor had changed the date of the autumn examination.
"It's changed. That's great! Zhijun, we can go to Beijing together."
Huo Jinqian said happily.
"If it's October, we can indeed go to Beijing together."
After more than ten days of fighting, we should be able to deal with this situation in twenty days. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, we can go to Beijing and catch up with the scientific examination.
This time the emperor agreed to let his father go back, and Gao Zhijun gave him some detoxification pills, a life-extending pill, and two heart-saving pills.
There should be elderly people in the palace, and they should have ready-made life-extending pills and heart-saving pills.
The next day, Eunuch Wang returned to the capital to report.
After seeing off Eunuch Wang, Murong Yuanbo gathered the soldiers and gave them a speech, asking them to be ready to start attacking Tatar tomorrow and end the war as soon as possible.
After returning to the yard, he told Liu Ningchu and Gao Zhijun not to go anywhere and that it was safest to stay in the military camp.
Liu Ningchu and Gao Zhijun agreed. What Gao Zhijun didn't tell Murong Yuanbo was that she was working in logistics and joined the army as a doctor to treat the wounded.
She planned to take Mo Xue away secretly and leave Qing Long behind to protect her mother and Jin Qian.
The next day, after breakfast, Gao Zhijun and Mo Xue disguised themselves as medicine boys and blended in with the military doctors.
After breakfast in the military camp, the soldiers quickly gathered with the beating of drums and blowing of bugles. Murong Yuanbo and the General of Cavalry said some encouraging words, and the team started to set off.
Murong Yuanbo rode his horse and led his troops down from the military camp to Panlong Town, then opened the city gate. The soldiers rushed out of the city and headed towards the Tatar encampment.
They shouted loudly all the way, the sound was so loud and deafening.
Gao Zhijun was looking at the formation in front from behind. This was the first time she saw an ancient army marching and fighting, and it turned out to be such a magnificent formation.
In their previous lives, they always carried out missions by surprise, fearing that the enemy would hear them and alert them. But this was not the case, with such a huge momentum, as if to tell the enemy how powerful they were, and make them flee at the first sign of danger.
