Transmigrated into a vicious female supporting role, reborn as a hostage to the paranoid male protag

The next day, Su Yingxue woke up at noon. She was surprised that she had slept for so long and felt extremely guilty.

As someone in a high position, you should be strict with yourself. How can you be so lazy and sleep in?

Su Yingxue hurriedly changed into men's clothes, put on a fake beard, and then reviewed the documents on the table as quickly as possible and asked the deputy general to get started.

I have to say that Mo Yunsheng's comments are clear, the content is concise, and it is easy to understand at a glance, which saves a lot of efficiency.

After finishing everything, she planned to set off with Taxue and a small group of secret guards. When she rode to the camp gate, she found Mo Yunsheng was already waiting for her there.

Perhaps wanting to be more low-key, Mo Yunsheng changed into coarse linen clothes, dressing like a servant. He even deliberately dyed his skin darker, giving it a bronzed appearance, to hide his appearance.

Although Su Yingxue was wearing cloth clothes, and the material was not particularly good, it was softer than Mo Yunsheng's coarse cloth.

After riding for a while, we saw refugees walking slowly on both sides of the road, looking haggard and hungry.

Su Yingxue felt a deep sense of powerlessness whenever she encountered such a moment. They only had some light dry food with them, and their horseback ride hadn't attracted the hungry refugees to attack them, which was a blessing.

Their first stop, Liangcheng, was their goal. Liangcheng was a larger city that was more prosperous than the surrounding cities, with thriving shops and trade, as well as relatively well-developed farmland.

Where there are shops and wealthy people, there is food. After entering Liangcheng, Su Yingxue and her group went directly to the official residence in the city. After handing over the military order, Su Yingxue met the city officials.

When Su Yingxue proposed to raise military rations to Hancheng, the officials said that based on military orders and loan documents, they could only withdraw a quarter of the existing granary and lend it to Hancheng.

Liangcheng officials suggested to Su Yingxue that she could borrow grain from the wealthy gentry in Liangcheng to raise food. That day, Su Yingxue ordered some of her secret guards and some of the Liangcheng guards to escort the borrowed grain to Hancheng.

It's just a drop in the bucket.

The next day, Su Yingxue and Mo Yunsheng first secretly visited many local grain stores and found that the price of grain had risen. Although it was expensive, many people were still buying it.

If grain prices in Liangcheng were this high, the situation elsewhere would only be worse. Su Yingxue sent several secret guards to contact several nearby cities and wait for a response.

It was not until the secret guard replied that we discovered that the price of rice had increased three or four times in the past month due to the battle in the border town, so that now the price of grain is even higher than that in Dasheng Kyoto.

Su Yingxue's face turned serious when she heard this. "Goodness me! The Great Sheng Dynasty is under attack on its borders, and these wealthy gentry are taking advantage of the national crisis to profit from it?"

Mo Yunsheng remained silent upon hearing this. His Mo family had been royal merchants for generations, with businesses and shops spread across Kyoto and most of the Dasheng Dynasty.

Mo Yunsheng also wrote to his elders at home to ask about the recent situation. The result was that the harvest in Dasheng South was excellent this year, with a bumper grain harvest and the purchase price of grain was also normal.

But now if we purchase or borrow grain in Liangcheng, the price will be much lower, which is not cost-effective.

If grain is transported from the south, the price will be low, but it will take longer.

Just when Su Yingxue was at a loss, Mo Yunsheng suggested that they hold a banquet tomorrow, invite the most important wealthy people in Liangcheng, and present a visiting card to Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"Your Highness, since you are going to attend the banquet tonight as the eldest princess, you cannot dress too plainly." Mo Yunsheng brought out a large wooden box and handed it to Su Yingxue.

Su Yingxue had just finished taking a shower and was wearing an ordinary dress. She was sitting in front of the dressing table, and Tuxue was helping her comb her hair.

Mo Yunsheng walked into the room, put the wooden box on the table and opened it. Su Yingxue then discovered that the other party had prepared a light crimson brocade dress for her. The faint light coming through the window shone on the dress, making it look magnificent and radiant.

Mo Yunsheng opened another wooden box inlaid with gold and jade, which contained a set of ruby ​​head ornaments decorated with gold. It was a luxurious and beautiful headdress, paired with earrings and necklaces, which was luxurious and elegant.

Su Yingxue withdrew her gaze from the brocade clothes and beautiful ornaments. She looked up at Mo Yunsheng. The man was wearing a white dress, which was also the most fashionable fabric in Dasheng Kyoto today. The white dress was as white as snow, with silver silk and bamboo pattern sleeves on it.

He was dressed in loose, white clothes as white as snow, and looked like a graceful scholar, just like the jade-like young man she met in Shuibo Pavilion that year.

The people on Mo are like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world.

Perhaps it was because life with the army in the past month was too hard, and neither of them had the energy to dress up properly. This time, they couldn't help but look at each other a few more times.

Su Yingxue was a beauty to begin with. She had just come out of the bath, and her black hair was still damp, but not dripping with water.

Su Yingxue's black hair was draped over her shoulders. Her face was as small as a palm, and her eyes were as lively as a stream. She was looking at Mo Yunsheng silently.

Her willow-shaped eyebrows, carefully groomed by Taxue, were like distant mountains, and her face was like indigo. Su Yingxue's skin was as white as jade, and her lips were stained red, like a rosy cherry.

Maybe it was because he had just finished taking a shower, he felt a little lazy, just like the fat orange kitten he kept at home, with a sense of laziness and leisure between his eyebrows.

"There are no clothes and jewelry of this quality in this place. Brother Mo, did you transport them from Dasheng Kyoto?" Su Yingxue asked lazily.

"I had the escort agency deliver it a month ago. It was originally intended for Her Highness, but the right time just wasn't there." Mo Yunsheng admitted with a frank smile. When he saw the dress in his shop that day, he wanted to give it to her and have her wear it.

Mo Yunsheng had been thinking about it for a long time, but he had never had the opportunity. He hadn't wanted to tell her, but she was so smart that she guessed it right away.

"Now is a coincidence, Your Highness. Since we are discussing raising grain, you must have the temperament of Her Royal Highness the Princess. As a descendant of the royal family, you naturally have the temperament of a noble."

Mo Yunsheng looked at Su Yingxue, his eyes were like the melted snow on the Tianshan Mountain, clear and gentle.

Su Yingxue looked into his eyes, blushed slightly, and whispered, "Okay."

Taxue came out and lowered the curtain of the inner room, then helped Su Yingxue change her clothes.

When the curtain was opened again, Su Yingxue had turned back into the princess who was a royal concubine, and her every move showed luxury and elegance.

"Your Highness, I will take my leave first." Taxue took her changed clothes and left the main house. Only Su Yingxue and Mo Yunsheng were left in the house.

"Your Highness," Mo Yunsheng looked at Su Yingxue. Her beauty was like an incomparable gem, shining brightly and dazzlingly, which always attracted his attention unconsciously.

Mo Yunsheng suppressed his inner restlessness and finally took the lead in discussing the details of the dinner with Su Yingxue.

The dinner was filled with toasts and singing and dancing. In the end, Su Yingxue accepted Mo Yunsheng's suggestion and used his rhetoric to get one-third of the grain reserves of the rich man in Liangcheng at the normal purchase price.
