Small green grass falling from the sky

【King of Duke Chu who has no prophecy】

The next day, Su Li took Su Xiaohu to sell flowers under the state bridge as usual.

Seeing the "outstanding" King Chu, he remembered that he owed water lilies, oh, and that cart of grasshoppers.

The point is the Grasshopper.

Thinking of Grasshopper, Su Li no longer has the heart to sell flowers, but just wants to go home and lobby Little Water Lily.

So, he sold the next few pots of flowers to "people with predestined relationship" at a very affordable price, and he never said anything like "it's worth the price".

Su house, flower shed.

Su Li showed a "friendly" smile, and looked at the pots of small water lilies with a strange look.

The little water lilies inexplicably felt a chill, hugged each other and hummed, "Little green grass, we tell you, different species and species cannot pollinate!"

Su Li's face is full of black lines - who wants to pollinate you!

No, I'm a human being, so I don't need pollination!

The little water lilies rolled up their round leaves, "Hmph~"

Su Li cleared his throat and began to lobby: "That county king next door, did you meet yesterday? Their house has a big pond..."

"(*@ο@*) Wow ~ big pond!"

"Well, he said he wanted to replace some water lilies and put them in the pond for the little frog..."

"(*@ο@*) Wow~ There are also little frogs?"

Su Li nodded solemnly, "So you..."

The little water lilies didn't listen to him at all, and started discussing with great interest.

"I like little frogs!"

"I want it to sleep on my leaves~"

"I want it to eat my flowers~"

"Frogs don't eat flowers!"

Su Li blinked, and asked tentatively, "You mean... want to go?"

"I think!" Water Lily One held up a leaf.

"I want to too!" Water Lily No. [-] held up two leaves.

"And I!"

"I me me!"

Water lily number [-] lifted all the leaves.

Su Li: ...

So he was worried that there would be no flowers willing to go all the way, did he just pretend to be affectionate?

Su Li, furious and angry, packed up all the water lilies and sent them to Chu Jing's house.

The little water lilies didn't suffer from the so-called parting at all, and they were so happy when they arrived at their new home.

The small pond is not too big - a lotus family doesn't have to live far away!

The green little frog - super cute!

(*@ο@*) Wow~ There are also tiny humans, much cuter than the little tiger and the big devil!

The little water lilies chattered about their new home, completely forgetting Su Li, their old master.

Chu Jing lowered his head slightly, looked at Xiaoxiannan's tense face, and chuckled, "Reluctance?"

"No." Su Li puffed up unconsciously.

The rare childish appearance really pleased Chu Jing, and His Highness the Duke of the County was very happy, so he put his shoulders carelessly, "Let's go, move the grasshopper."

Su Li turned sideways reflexively, and with a "plop", he threw himself into the pond.

Chu Jing: ...

Conscience, I didn't do anything!

***

While Su Li was pinching his sore and itchy nose, he moved the flower stand with a sullen head - in order to accommodate his beloved little grasshopper, he specially vacated the little ear next to the flower shed where the farm tools were placed.

In order to express his guilt, Chu Jing insisted on coming to help despite Su Li's various rejections.Comes with a white and soft Chuguagua.

Chu Guagua took a bagful of salty, fragrant and crispy fried soybeans, and handed them to Su Xiaohu obediently.

Su Xiaohu also took out his own snacks and shared them with his friends.

The two little bamboo horses went to play in the west room, leaving the adults busy in and out of the side room.

"Ah!" Su Li sneezed hard.

Chu Jing helplessly tugged at his neatly combed hair, "Leave it if you feel uncomfortable, and I'll ask someone to tidy it up for you."

Su Li knocked off his hand, and said angrily: "I dare not bother you."

Chu Jing raised his eyebrows and laughed, "You only dare to bother me?"

When Su Li mentioned this, he became angry, "Who told you to do anything!"

Chu Jing tried his best to defend, "I was expressing friendship."

"I have no love with you!"

As soon as these words came out, the air froze for a moment, and then, the two turned their backs in unison.

Su Li covered his face in annoyance, the blush reaching the base of his neck.

Chu Jing pressed his fist to his lips, his shoulders trembled suspiciously.

"Don't laugh!" The little fairy boy became angry from embarrassment.

"No, I didn't laugh... Pfft—" Chu County King wanted to cover up.

In the end, it was Chu Jing who was the first to show weakness, and poured a cup of hot tea with his own hands. He deliberately softened his deep voice, "Come, drink some water to calm down."

The scent of tea wafted into his nostrils, Su Li turned around, his eyes glowed with joy, "Was it soaked in Huailu?"

Chu Jing raised the corners of his lips, "Like it?"

Su Li nodded, couldn't wait to take it, and took a shallow sip.

"Sure enough, it's the dew from the Sophora japonica flower!" He looked up at Chu Jing, with a hint of appreciation in his bright eyes, "I never thought His Royal Highness would have such an elegant spirit."

Chu Jing lifted his eyes, knocked on his forehead with a smile, and said without thinking: "I know you have many problems, so I prepared it for you."

Su Li was taken aback.

Chu Jing was also stunned.

The atmosphere that had just eased became tense again.

After a while, Chu Jing cleared his throat and said in a low voice, "Sorry."

"No problem." Su Li responded quickly.

Immediately afterwards, the two of them pretended to be very busy moving shelves, building shelves, and hanging grasshopper cages... No one spoke again.

Su Li thought that he had spied on His Royal Highness's little secret, so he tried his best to put on an appearance of "I was in a daze, I didn't find anything".

Chu Jing was worried about hurting the fragile self-esteem of the little flower farmer, and he was afraid that he would cry and say something like "So I'm just a double", so he didn't dare to mess around again.

After finally tidying up the Grasshopper's room, His Royal Highness almost fled in despair.

***

Chu Jing slumped on the reclining chair, looking at the lotus in the small pond, and sighed.

Bai Cong sat at the side flipping through the account books, and said jokingly: "Isn't it just that Huayuan lost money? As for that?"

Chu Jing followed the steps and replied indiscriminately: "You said it, I still support a big family, what can I do if I continue to pay this much?"

Bai Cong paused, and asked solemnly: "You have decided, the dividends from the No. [-] Salt and Iron Mine...are you really going to donate it to the treasury?"

Mentioning this, Chu Jing's expression also became serious, he lowered his voice, and said seriously: "You and I know Zhao Yi's temperament, and I can't leave him with the slightest clue."

Bai Cong's eyes flashed, and he asked vaguely: "Your Highness, how do you know...it must be him?"

Chu Jing pursed his lips, can he say it, because he traveled from later generations, because he has learned this history.

Emperor Ren of Great Chu reigned for 23 years, his only parent and son died young, and there was only one grandson of the emperor left under his knees, who was only six years old.Emperor Ren was dying, so he tried his best to make Zhao Yi, the son of the clan's younger brother, the crown prince, and agreed that after the emperor's grandson grew up, Zhao Yi would make him the crown prince, and he would still be in the orthodox position.

Zhao Yi obediently agreed, ascended to the throne gracefully, and acted conscientiously for several years. When he got a firm foothold, the poor emperor's eldest grandson "died young".

Not only that, all the emperor's daughters, grandsons, and granddaughters of Emperor Ren's line either died suddenly, or were convicted and exiled, and even none of the civil servants and military generals whom Emperor Ren had valued before his death died well.

In the inheritance of Great Chu for nearly a thousand years, it was undoubtedly a bloody period. Even people like Chu Jing who don't like to learn have a deep memory of this period of history.

However, he couldn't tell Bai Cong these words, even if he told him, he wouldn't believe him.

Therefore, Chu Jing only blinked, and said half-jokingly: "Just treat me as a prophet."

Bai Cong gave him a blank look, paused, and said again, "Are you sure the 5000 troops over there are going to withdraw too?"

Chu Jing pursed his lips, "Leave it for now." That was his last resort, and he couldn't move easily, "If you remove the second salt and iron mine, can you still afford it?"

Bai Cong knocked on the account book, "It's not a big problem at the moment, but if this flower garden keeps losing money..."

After all, back to the original point.

Chu Jing was also quite helpless. Chengnan Flower Garden was the first business he started after he came to Bianjing. In the past, he also invested a lot of money in it. However, in the past two years, the situation has not been good and the competition has been great. Instead, it has become a leak. money hole.

If he really gave up like this... Chu Jing felt very sorry, but there were many people raised there, all of whom escaped from Zhending with him before.

Looking at the newly planted water lilies in the small pond, Chu Jing suddenly had an idea.

"Congzi, what do you think of these water lilies?"

"Ah?" Bai Cong couldn't keep up with his train of thought for a moment, "It's pretty good, my subordinates don't quite understand it, but looking at it with a rough eye, it should be of good quality."

"I bought it from the little flower farmer next door." Chu Jing raised a finger and smiled very proudly, "I only used a cart full of grasshoppers."

"Is there a lot of grasshoppers in a cart?" Bai Cong really wanted to teach this His Royal Highness the county king a good lesson.

"This is the top quality water lily, there is a price but no market!" Chu Jing even wanted to teach this "only the account book" a good lesson.

Director Bai was defeated, "What do you want to say, Your Highness?"

Chu Jing raised his eyebrows, and finally said his plan, "You said, let's not grow it ourselves, but just be a middleman and earn the difference, how about it?"

"Make the price difference?" Bai Cong quickly grasped the point, and quickly understood Chu Jing's plan, "You mean...buy it locally at a low price, and use a caravan to ship it to other places to sell it at a high price?"

Chu Jing applauded, "As expected of a golden abacus!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and immediately reached a consensus.

***

Chu Jing expected that Zhao Yi would come to the door, so after lunch, he set up tea and snacks for him early.

Sure enough, just after being bored for a quarter of an hour, the doorman came to report that Young Master Zhao had arrived.

Every time Chu Jing hears the title "Young Master", Chu Jing wants to complain - he is just the adopted son of the emperor, so he was made the county king. Xiao is a good nephew, but in the end he didn't get any titles.

This is also what Zhao Yi dislikes most about him.

"Brother, why are you free today?" Chu Jing greeted with a smile, swinging his long legs.

Every time he saw him like this, Zhao Yi wanted to strangle him to death, but he still tried to maintain a warm and friendly appearance on the surface, "Isn't it my soft-hearted uncle? The people below offended Brother Jing, so they begged I'm here to intercede with him."

Chu Jing raised his eyebrows, pretending to be angry, "Master Wang wants me to spare those blind people?"

"How can it be?" Zhao Yi lowered his posture and said with a smile, "Those bastards offended Brother Jing, so uncle will clean them up without you saying anything."

Chu Jing shook his head and deliberately put on a dignified look, "They didn't offend me, they deserve what they deserve."

"Yes, yes!" Zhao Yi responded repeatedly, "It's just my uncle..." After speaking, he gave the attendants behind him a wink.

The entourage quickly brought up an exquisite brocade box, and put it on the table respectfully.

Chu Jing glanced at the brocade box, showing a knowing look, and said slowly: "I won't enter the palace for a few days, and my adoptive father won't announce me even if he wants to come."

"Come on!" Zhao Yi clapped his hands, and patted Chu Jing's shoulder affectionately, "Talking with Brother Jing is just a pleasure."

Chu Jing smiled equally kindly - I also took money very happily.

After finishing the business, Zhao Yi didn't leave right away, but winked and said: "Brother Jing, those troublemakers, do you want me to teach you a lesson?"

Chu Jing smiled, "You don't need to do this little thing, someone is going to take care of it yourself."

Zhao Yi frowned, showing an ambiguous smile, "I've met that little brother of the Su family before, and he is indeed quite pretty, but, I heard that he hurt his face a while ago..."

I've seen your head!

Chu Jing would only believe him if he was a fool. He didn't know which bum to find out the news, so he just inquired here.Let's see, this guy will have to add a lot of money to his reputation as a "loafer".

Chu Jing cursed secretly in his heart, but on the surface he responded smoothly, "Brother Jing misses the old days."

"Hehe... yes!" Zhao Yi laughed dryly, this matter was completely exposed.

I don't know what kind of thoughts he was holding, but before he left, he deliberately revealed a message to Chu Jing, "Brother Jing, there is a saying on the monitoring platform, I don't know if it is true or not..."

"Huh?" Chu Jing rolled his eyelids, thinking that he was going to use something to scare him.

"I heard that the cold wave is coming. In the next few days, brother Jing's flower garden...you need to make preparations in advance." Zhao Yi showed an inexplicable smile and walked away.

Chu Jing was indeed shocked.

"Black bamboo."

"Subordinates are here."

"Go check!"

"Yes."

Chu Jing's complexion is not very good. If the news is true, it will not only be his flower garden that will be damaged, Bianjing City, or the flower farmers in the hinterland of the Central Plains will suffer!
