Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong

Chapter 84 The Prime Minister's Early Death

However, this already sickly person had slipped out of his control at some point and later became someone he could only look up to.

He lost his job, broke his leg, became a disabled man, and saw Min Rouer's true face.

But, huh...

It was too late. Did Nan Xi still love him? He couldn't lie to himself anymore. This woman, whose eyes had sparkled when they first met, had been completely lost to him.

This is probably his retribution.

Min Rouer asked Zhao's eldest uncle and second uncle to collect Zhao Wenxuan's body, but neither of the two families showed up.

It was Shopkeeper Zhang who helped to find two people, who wrapped the body in a torn straw mat and threw it into a mass grave.

Nan Xi received the news and even used space teleportation to go and take a look.

When they arrived, they saw two wild dogs gnawing on the relatively fresh corpse. But Yixi could tell that the person was indeed Zhao Wenxuan, and he was indeed dead.

So I didn't care about it anymore.

Compared to the original body being burned to ashes and scattered in the downtown area for people to trample on, Zhao Wenxuan's result is about the same, right?

After Zhao Wenxuan's death, the system informed Nan Xi that all her tasks were complete. From then on, she was free in this small world, free to do whatever she wanted, as long as she lived to the end of her life.

"But isn't Min Rouer still alive?" Nan Xi was a little surprised. Is the original heroine so easy to talk to?

[The original owner felt that this was more painful than death] Jiujiujiu explained:

[Also, the original owner felt that since Min Rouer shared a man with her, it was normal for her to use some means to deal with her. She hated Zhao Wenxuan even more.]

[Now that Zhao Wenxuan has fallen into this state, the original owner's obsession has dissipated, and he is eager to reincarnate.]

"Oh, that's good!" Nan Xi didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she suddenly felt a sense of relief. Zhou Sui, disheveled, was teasing her, and the two of them immediately started messing around again.

Three years passed in the blink of an eye.

Considering that the Northern Territory had become stable and mature, and that the Emperor and Empress were extremely kind to her and Nan Xichen, during the Wanshou Festival that year, Nan Xi presented Xuanyuan Yao with corn seeds and a cement recipe as gifts.

Corn was presented as a tribute because this grain crop had a high yield and was not sought after by the upper class nobles, but it could still allow the lower class people to have enough food to eat.

As long as she could protect herself, Nan Xi didn't mind doing something that would benefit both the country and the people, as well as herself. The widespread cultivation of corn could also, to a certain extent, satisfy the winter fodder needs of the northern warhorses, killing two birds with one stone.

Although at this time the above crops had basically been widely planted throughout Da Yue.

To a certain extent, it has benefited the country and the people.

As for the cement recipe, it was mainly because Nan Xi wanted to build military camps and houses in the north, so as to ensure long-term stable development.

But she really couldn't stand the indigenous mud houses, which were flimsy, drafty, and easily collapsed.

After hesitating for a long time, I finally decided to share the cement recipe.

There is no way. In fact, Xuanyuan Yao is really a broad-minded emperor. No matter from which perspective, he has turned a blind eye to the changes in the northern border in recent years.

Nan Xi didn't want to repeatedly challenge the emperor's bottom line. After all, she had personally supported him, and it would be bad if the ministers became suspicious of each other.

Xuanyuan Yao was overjoyed when he received these two gifts. He immediately ordered the Minister of Agriculture to experiment with and promote corn planting, and asked the Ministry of Industry to step up cement production.

The result is predictable: corn yielded a bumper harvest in the second year. This crop is particularly suitable for growing crops on land, and even low-quality fields, which were once despised, can produce a high yield.

Cement-bonded buildings are even more indestructible.

The happy emperor immediately issued an edict, conferring the title of King Zhenbei on General Nan and the title of Princess Yue'an on Nan Xi, and enjoying

The food allowance is three thousand.

What was even more surprising was that Xuanyuan Yao directly issued an edict to grant the northern border to General Nan as a fiefdom.

This reward shocked the court and the country.

After all, since ancient times, there have been many cases of kings of the opposite sex, but very few have directly granted them fiefdoms. Aren't they afraid that they might have ulterior motives and rebel one day?

Even General Nan Da resigned as a token of his resignation.

Xuanyuan Yao was firm in his attitude.

It's not just because he trusts the Nan family, nor is it just because the Nan family provided corn seeds and cement recipes.

On the night of his Wanshou Festival, Xuanyuan Yao had a dream. He suddenly dreamed that on that day in his previous life, he, still the crown prince, vomited blood and died. And no baby was born in the entire Eastern Palace.

He was unwilling to die, and saw his concubines scattered after his death, and the Crown Princess hanged herself after being bullied. He also saw his brothers fighting and his father usurping power, and his mediocre and weak ninth brother ascending the throne by relying on the remaining power of the Zhao family and the General's Mansion, until the Daliang cavalry crushed Dai Yue.

He was so angry that he woke up with his whole body shaking.

He didn't know why, but he knew that this wasn't just a dream. Everything in the dream was too real!

Moreover, in this life, if Nan Xi had not found him in the teahouse that day and had not had that conversation with him, he had a premonition that he, the entire Eastern Palace, and even the entire world would have had the same fate.

Recalling all the differences between this life and the previous one, everything was developing in a good direction, but almost every change was due to the Nan family's help.

So from that moment on, Xuanyuan Yao made up his mind to give the Nan family the honor and trust they deserve in this life.

Without the Nan family, there would be no life for Xuanyuan Yao, no throne and no son, and there would be no existence of Dai Viet.

Therefore, Xuanyuan Yao strongly refuted the ministers in the court, listing the generations of loyalty and various achievements of the Nan family one by one, leaving the ministers speechless.

Well, since the emperor has made up his mind, they are not bad guys in vain.

What if they love to offend people?

So they brought even more generous gifts and took the initiative to attend the banquet held by the Nan family for this Fengfeng Award.

Because the titles of King Zhenbei and Princess were conferred on the same day, the banquets were also held on the same day.

The men were hosted by General Guinan, or rather, by the Northern Zhenwang, Nan Zhenwei, and his friend Nan Xichen, with Zhou Sui accompanying them. Nan Xi was left to deal with the women on her own.

Fortunately, the queen sent experienced maids and eunuchs from the palace to help.

After a day of socializing, Nan Xi felt that she could no longer smile.

No, no, the population of this huge Zhenbei Palace is still too small.

At least at this critical moment, the master is obviously not enough.

It's worth mentioning that after the thank-you banquet, Nan Zhenwei, the new King of Zhenbei, had to go to his fiefdom to take up his post, while Nan Xi and Zhou Sui stayed in the capital.

Although the emperor did not ask for this, for various reasons, we have to reassure the emperor, right?
