Chapter 1361 The Crown Prince enters the mortal world

She felt that with these things, she could completely forgive Shuxiu for the heartbreaking incident just now.

The corners of her lips raised slightly, and she praised Shuxiu: "You are so good!"

Shuxiu chuckled and said, "When I saw these things, I knew His Highness would definitely like them."

Tang Miaoxin reached out and touched the gold and silver jewelry: "I like it, I like it very much!"

After she finished speaking, she sighed and said: "Lin Rufeng came to me early this morning, saying that Qinzhou was running out of food and asked me for money."

"I have to spend all this money while I'm keeping it warm in my hands. It hurts my body!"

She complained, but she didn't care about this kind of thing.

Although Qinzhou won this battle, it basically consumed Qinzhou's remaining grain.

In the past few years, due to constant fighting with Linyuan, the number of troops stationed in Qinzhou reached a record high.

There are too many soldiers and horses, and there are fewer young people to cultivate and open up wasteland, but the number of people eating has increased.

Originally, Qinzhou's output was not high, and the problem of rice and grain had always been a big problem in Qinzhou. In the past, Ning Guzhou used gems to exchange for grain and grass.

It's just that this year there is a severe drought in the entire north, and the state capitals adjacent to Qinzhou have no grain stocks.

If Qinzhou wants to buy rice grains, they have to go to the state capital in the south. This time, there is no waterway to go, so they can only go by land, and the freight is very expensive.

There is still a war between Qi and Zhao this year. These two countries were originally major grain-producing countries, but now most of the people's livelihood has been destroyed. They may not have any rice to sell.

Even if there were, Tang Miaoxin felt that given her relationship with Qi and Zhao, there was a high probability that they would not sell rice grains to them.

In Qinzhou today, although the war has been resolved, there are still a lot of problems behind it.

Tang Miaoxin cursed Emperor Cheng Ming in her heart. If this dog emperor had given Ning Guzhou a slightly better fiefdom, it wouldn't have been so difficult for him.

But then she thought again, if Qinzhou hadn't been remote and desolate, far away from the capital, and because of Emperor Ming's temperament, he would have sent heavy troops to encircle and suppress it.

So although Qinzhou is a little more difficult now, it at least has the soil to survive.

Seeking development after establishing a firm foothold seems to be a good choice.

Three days later, Ning Guzhou came back with Xiao Tiandou.

The horses that were let go by Little Sweet Pea were all found, except for a very few that couldn't be found.

When they were looking for horses, the people nearby also helped a lot.

They knew that Qinzhou's war horse had run away, so they all helped to harness the horse.

The soldiers from Qinzhou saw Ning Guzhou bringing Little Sweet Bean to harness his horse the next day. They had some complaints at first, but dispersed when they saw Ning Guzhou.

Children are not sensible, but they can understand if they are more naughty.

Their king personally brought the young prince to harness the horse, so there was no need to pursue the matter further.

Thinking about it carefully, Ning Guzhou has been considerate of the people over the years. Since he came from Qinzhou, the people of Qinzhou have hope for life.

During the war, Ning Guzhou always ate and slept with the soldiers. When encountering danger, he took the lead.

Such a king deserves their respect and their following.

When some soldiers saw Little Sweet Pea chewing on the dry and hard flatbread like them, they inevitably took a second look at him.

Xiao Tiandou asked Ning Guzhou to break off half of his cake, handed the clean half to the soldier and said, "Don't you have enough? Give me half of mine."

The soldier was so embarrassed that he didn't have the nerve to ask for Little Sweet Pea's cake, so he hurriedly said: "I have enough to eat."

Ning Guzhou said from the side: "He gives it to you, just take it."

That soldier was just an ordinary soldier, and he rarely saw Ning Guzhou.

He respected and had some instinctive fear for Ning Guzhou, but now he found that although Ning Guzhou looked cold, he was not difficult to get along with.

In addition, the little sweet bean was very cute, so he became fond of the father and son.

That afternoon, after he found them, he handed Little Sweet Pea two hard-boiled bird eggs.

Little Sweet Dou was shocked at the time. He had grown so big, and because of his noble status, other people gave him all kinds of rare and rare gifts. This was the first time he received a gift like a bird egg.

The soldier said with some embarrassment: "I found this on the mountain when I was roping my horse today."

"The young prince is still young and is still growing. He can't just eat pancakes."

There were only two eggs in the nest, and he gave them all to Little Sweet Pea.

Little Sweet Pea didn't know what to do when he held the bird's egg covered with spots on it. He only solemnly said: "Thank you!"

He thanked him, but the soldier felt a little embarrassed and stretched out his hand to scratch his head.

Ning Guzhou asked about the soldier's family situation. The soldier's family situation was not good. He was just an ordinary farmer. He had elderly grandparents at home, and he ranked third.

Ning Guzhou asked the soldier: "Are you willing to be the young prince's personal guard?"

The soldier is a new recruit this year. He is short, only seventeen years old, and has a simple mind.

At this time, he didn't even know what it meant to be Little Sweet Bean's personal guard. He lowered his head slightly and said, "I have to go back and ask my parents about this."

Ning Guzhou respected his opinion: "If you think about it, you can come to the palace to find me at any time."

The soldier nodded quickly, but felt that he had been delayed here for too long, so he hurriedly rode off to continue roping the horse.

Xiao Tiandou was still looking at the two eggs in a daze. Ning Guzhou told him: "For the soldier just now, this may be the best thing for him."

"What's rare is that he has a pure mind. Just because you gave him half a cake, he wants to repay you, not to please you because of your identity."

"Such quality is very rare. If he is willing to be your personal guard, you must treat him well."

Little Sweet Dou asked Ning Guzhou: "Why do two bird eggs make him think they are the best thing?"

Ning Guzhou replied: "Because of Qinzhou's poverty, many people here cannot afford to eat one meal of meat a year."

"Eggs are as precious to them as gold, and the same goes for bird eggs."

In the past two days, they went out to harness horses, and when they needed to rest, Ning Guzhou would take Little Sweet Bean to stay with an ordinary farmer's home.

This time Xiao Tiandou had a preliminary understanding of the poverty of the people in Qinzhou.

Things that he thought were worthless were treasures to the people of Qinzhou.

He also noticed that when Ning Guzhou took Little Sweet Dou to stay, he gave him a small ingot of silver.

When the simple people did not know the identity of their father and son, they would give them the largest room to live in.

Although the room is not half as big as Sweet Pea's usual room.

They would serve them dry rice, which was boiled green wheat mixed with other coarse grains, but they themselves ate porridge.

Because of this series of events, Xiao Tiandou was still in a daze when she returned to the palace.

The originally naughty little prince wanted to go to heaven and only wanted to be trashed every day, but he finally understood what suffering is in the world.

He finally understood what Ning Guzhou was carrying on his shoulders, and what he would carry in the future.
