Chapter 584: Your Majesty, I have a miserable life!
Eunuch De stood in front with a smile, "Master Mu, the emperor is waiting for you in the Imperial Garden."
Prime Minister Mu looked up at the warm sunset clouds in the west. It was almost time for dinner.
Could it be that the Emperor has come up with a unique idea and wants to have a drink with me in the Imperial Garden?
Haha! Prime Minister Mu's guess was totally wrong this time!
What was waiting for him in the imperial garden was not fine wine or delicacies, but a cold hoe.
That’s right, it’s a small black flower hoe!
Prime Minister Mu looked at the small flower hoe that Emperor Tai'an stuffed into his hands and was unable to react for a moment.
"Mr. Prime Minister, you are finally here! Come on, help me hoe this piece of land, and then we can have a drink together."
When has Prime Minister Mu, who was born as a top scholar, ever been to the ground? He doesn't even know what the thing in his hand is? How should he operate it?
Emperor Tai'an suddenly felt a sense of superiority and taught Prime Minister Mu step by step how to hoe the fields.
"No, Your Majesty, our Donglin Kingdom is so poor that we can't even afford to eat. Is it time for the ruler of a country to go to the fields and grow crops?"
Prime Minister Mu looked at the small pieces of land at his feet, on which lush sweet potato and potato leaves had grown.
It seems that Emperor Tai'an has been doing this for some time and has never stopped.
Emperor Tai'an pointed to a small piece of sweet potato field connected to another small piece on the ground and said complacently: "Prime Minister, those pieces of land were cultivated by my four concubines themselves. What do you think? Can't you tell? Usually they are so weak that they can't even lift a basin of water, but now they can carry a whole bucket of water in one hand and sprinkle water while walking."
Prime Minister Mu didn’t know what to say!
As the king of a country, you let your wives come out to farm with you and act so proud of themselves. Why is that?
Emperor Tai'an couldn't bear to see that Prime Minister Mu couldn't keep up with his ideas, so he asked Prime Minister Mu to continue to cultivate the vacant land nearby, while he was responsible for supervision.
"Mr. Prime Minister, these sweet potatoes and potatoes are the high-yield crops that my sixth brother's wife mentioned. Then I must personally demonstrate it and take the lead with the civil and military officials in the court."
After Prime Minister Mu wielded the small flower hoe for a few strokes, several blisters appeared on his delicate palms.
Prime Minister Mu felt very bitter. He had never heard of a prime minister in the imperial court who had to learn how to farm! Woo woo woo!
But at this time, Emperor Tai'an was very interested in continuing his long speech on agriculture with Prime Minister Mu.
Prime Minister Mu couldn't bear it any longer and cried, "Your Majesty, I remember there are still many things waiting for me in the palace. How about this place, I will come back another day..."
"Hey, there's Xiaojiu, a wise man, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so there's no need for you to go back."
"Wow, wow, Your Majesty, I have a hard life! Xiaojiu is taking Yaoyao out for fun!"
Prime Minister Mu threw away the small flower hoe in his hand, walked forward, hugged Emperor Tai'an's legs and started to act pitiful.
"What? Xiaojiu went out with the Prime Minister's wife? This is not right, wasn't she..."
Emperor Tai'an was just about to say that the Prime Minister's wife had been kidnapped by spies from the Nanshun Kingdom and was used as a hostage.
It was Qingqing who asked her subordinates to come to the palace to report the kidnapping of the third prince and also to inform them of the kidnapping of Qin Yao.
Emperor Tai'an couldn't do anything to Fang Jinyu now (once he dealt with Fang Jinyu, the Prime Minister would know that his wife had been kidnapped), so he could only sulk on his own.
After Mu Qingqing rescues the Prime Minister’s wife and brings her back, she will then convict that shameless bitch Fang Jinyu.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong? What's wrong?"
Prime Minister Mu saw a hint of reluctance and embarrassment on Emperor Tai'an's face.
"Oh, I didn't say anything wrong! Since Xiaojiu and the Prime Minister's wife are out for fun, you can stay in the palace for the next few days and chat with me about the hot topics outside the palace."
Prime Minister Mu would agree to anything as long as Emperor Tai'an exempted him from the task of reclaiming the land.
The two people walked side by side, one on the left and one on the right, towards the imperial study.
Mu Qingqing drove the military bus to the foot of Jingning Mountain at two o'clock in the morning.
Solar energy-saving lamps as bright as daylight are hung around the foot of Jingning Mountain, and a team of fully armed Flying Tigers are patrolling the mountain.
The Flying Tigers on duty saw the bright light from the bus headlights from afar, and they quickly rushed over as they were already very familiar with the bus.
"Your subordinate greets His Majesty and Princess!"
Ye Nanli nodded expressionlessly and walked forward.
Mu Qingqing smiled at them and said, "Is it your team's turn to be on duty today? Have the others entered the mountain?"
The team leader stepped forward and said, "Reporting to the princess, except for our team who are on duty and patrolling the mountain at the foot of the mountain, the other personnel have not come out since entering the mountain."
Mu Qingqing nodded and immediately understood.
"You guys go into the mine now and call everyone out. There are other tasks."
Mu Qingqing asked them to go into the mine and call for help, while she took out a few flares. She pulled the thread and the flares shot up into the sky with a whoosh.
During the days since Lin Feng came back from the Northern Frontier, he has been following Mu Qingqing to learn some skills secretly. Seeing this, he immediately took out the Flying Tiger Army's special flare from his arms and fired it into the sky.
Mu Qingqing then continued to take out military tents and asked the captains of each group to come and collect them.
At this time of year, it is particularly cold in the morning and evening. There are still a few hours before dawn, so Mu Qingqing specifically asked them to stay in the windproof and cold-proof tent to recuperate.
The Flying Tigers and the Wolf Warriors mercenary team had extremely strong mobility. Within a cup of tea's time after the signal flare went off, they quickly jumped down from all directions one after another.
Mu Qingqing looked at her watch and continued to stare coldly at the mountain road of Jingning Mountain.
The Flying Tigers and Wolf Warriors who had entered the mine to mine were still holding on to their work. It was only after receiving verbal notification from the Flying Tigers on duty that they put down their tools and quickly went down the mountain.
At the foot of the empty Jingning Mountain, a team of nearly three thousand people lined up in an orderly manner.
Mu Qingqing and Ye Nanli stood at the front of the team, facing them, expressionless.
"Are you surprised that I called you back at this time?"
In response to Mu Qingqing's question, everyone on the field looked forward calmly.
I was wondering in my heart: Master, weren’t you just away for a few days?
We must have been surprised to see him coming back so soon, in the middle of the night!
Mu Qingqing stepped forward and said in a sonorous voice, "There may be a tough battle to fight next. You should have a good rest tonight and get enough rest."
"Yes, I got it!"
The Flying Tigers and Wolf Warriors mercenaries who had just got off the vehicle had already set up military tents for their comrades who came later, so they just had to go in and rest.
Mu Qingqing, Ye Nanli, Lin Feng and Nangong Qi stayed to discuss the next plan and countermeasures.
Emperor Nanshun was a suspicious person, quite conceited, selfish and completely self-centered.
In response to his personality, Ye Nanli and Nangong Qi followed his thoughts and developed several possible emergencies.
Mu Qingqing took corresponding emergency measures according to these situations and reviewed them over and over again several times.
It was past four in the morning when Ye Nanli and the others could not think of any other tricks, so Mu Qingqing let them go back to rest.
