Chapter 256: Must Have Political Results

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Laughter came from the house. Rong Yan, who had been tossing and turning last night, looked at the little rabbit pendant hanging on his sword hilt and made an unquestionable decision.

After chatting with Mrs. Shen for a while, Xiaoxiao pushed open the window to get some air and happened to see Rong Yan walking over with County Magistrate Shen. She knew that they must have something to discuss, so she waved her hand as a greeting. Unexpectedly, Rong Yan walked towards her. “Come with me?”

This was a question, but it made Xiaoxiao especially surprised.

County Magistrate Shen was even more surprised than her. He was so frightened by the Third Prince that he accidentally broke one of his whiskers. His heart ached.

“W-What are you doing?”

Rong Yan turned to look at him and said firmly, “There’s no need to hide my matter from Xiaoxiao, including Yan Lu’s matter. She can’t stay out of it after saving Han Qing.”

After analyzing everything with her, she could be more careful when she met Yan Lu’s people in the future.

Before County Magistrate Shen said anything, Xiaoxiao came out of the room and said with a smile, “Okay.”

Following the two of them to the room where they usually discussed business, Xiaoxiao heard County Magistrate Shen bowing helplessly. “Please, Third Prince.”

Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. She was surprised, but she didn’t think it was that surprising.

“I was wondering why any young master in the wilderness could be so good-looking. So it’s a royal production.”

County Magistrate Shen choked and lost his ability to speak for a moment.

Did this child know the meaning of the words “Third Prince”? The person in front of her was the prince! No matter how unfavored he was, he was still of the emperor’s bloodline. Was it really good for her to be so casual?

However, Rong Yan did not care. Not only did he not care, but he also felt more relaxed. He was even more afraid that Xiaoxiao would alienate and distance herself from him because of his identity. Fortunately, she was still her, and they were still them.

County Magistrate Shen was dazzled by the Third Prince’s smile again. Suddenly, an incredible idea popped up in his mind!

Because he was shocked by this thought, he was stunned. Hence, Rong Yan brought Xiaoxiao into the house first. The moment they entered, Dean Lu and Chen Yong, who were waiting inside, almost lost their grip on their teacups. “Your Highness, this… you… Little Girl Ning?”

Rong Yan cupped his hands at the two of them before saying, “Everyone knows that the person who saved Han Qing in the forest was Xiaoxiao. Since she’s already involved, I think she naturally has the right to know.”

“If we hide everything from her, how can she avoid danger if she encounters Yan Lu or the Lei Family again in the future? She won’t have such good luck every time.”

The three of them felt that this made sense, but it was a little unreasonable.

“Also,” Rong Yan continued, “I hope everyone can help take care of the Ning Family and Xiaoxiao after I leave.”

The three of them suddenly had an epiphany. Teacher Chen, aka Lord Chen, who was the only one among them who had yet to get married, asked with a wooden expression, “Have you decided to leave?”

Rong Yan nodded. Since he had decided not to hide anything from Xiaoxiao, he would tell her everything.

“Yan Lu’s tail is hidden too tightly. It wasn’t easy for us to catch hold of his weakness this time, so we definitely can’t miss this opportunity. However, half of the people in the capital are from the Yan Family. The most hateful thing is that the local news is strictly guarded by them. Only by passing the Yan Family’s layers of screening can we go to the emperor to hear it. Other than me returning to the capital to meet the emperor personally, I can’t think of any other foolproof method.”

Xiaoxiao was a little surprised. So his Little Big Brother could say so much in one go. Moreover, it was undeniable that he seemed to be even more charming when he was serious.

Rong Yan was actually very nervous. He had just expressed his feelings to Xiaoxiao not long ago. If he suddenly said that he wanted to leave, would she think that he was going to abandon her? Would she be angry?

However, seeing her usual expression, he heaved a sigh of relief and continued, “Unfortunately, Lord Shen’s construction of the canal can only stop here. There’s no reasonable excuse for him to continue further up.”

County Magistrate Shen was also anxious about this. “In my opinion, they’re a group of cowards. They clearly know about the dam, but they’re unwilling to come with me. I don’t want them to openly resist the Yan Family. It’s just building a river. Can’t they just say that they want to increase rice cultivation?”

Lord Chen glanced at him. “They don’t lack food in their territory. It’s better to avoid trouble. Which official doesn’t understand that?”

County Magistrate Shen sighed. “They’re all not motivated. Can’t they think about how to make more political achievements?”

Lord Chen retorted habitually, “Can you achieve political achievements just by growing a season of rice? Then don’t you think it’s too simple to be an official? You’re painting a big picture for them. Can they accept it stupidly?”

County Magistrate Shen was furious. “I just said it casually. Senior Brother, do you have to argue with me?”

Mr. Chen, who was single, didn’t tell him. This was called venting his anger.

Back then, they agreed that their fellow disciples would focus on learning and working hard for the strength of the country, but their junior brother secretly became engaged and even had a son!

The 16-year-old Third Prince had also found his dream girl. Even this 12-year-old girl had caught his eye. What about him? Where was his Springtime?

Just as one person was grieving and the other was sighing, a soft voice suddenly sounded. “Then… if we can definitely have political achievements, the other officials will cooperate and repair the channels. This way, we can save more people if the dam collapses before the Imperial Court sends people over?”

County Magistrate Shen was full of emotions. He said, “I thought you would ask, ‘Since you already know that the dam is in disrepair, why don’t you expose it and deal with it quickly? Why are you wasting your time here? What kind of officials are you?”‘

Xiaoxiao laughed. “I understand the logic of an official being superior to others. Moreover, Lord Shen and Lord Yan are the county magistrate and the governor. They belong to the empress’s maternal family. Even if you beat the gong and drum to make this matter public, it will only cause a civil disorder in vain.”

The little girl was so smart. County Magistrate Shen wanted to give her a thumbs up, but Rong Yan said proudly, “Xiaoxiao is so smart.” County Magistrate Shen immediately retracted his thumbs up. Then he thought for a moment. No, he had a wife, so he didn’t have to be jealous. “Indeed.”

Lord Chen didn’t want to speak, so Dean Lu asked, “What did Little Girl Ning mean when she said that they must have political achievements?”

It had nothing to do with culinary skills. He only asked this because he saw the girl’s calm expression.

It had nothing to do with culinary skills. He just felt that this girl was really calm and did not seem to be someone who spoke without thinking.

It had nothing to do with cooking. He was just curious about what Little Girl Ning’s “political achievements” would be.

Xiaoxiao had actually hesitated whether she should say it or not, but Little Big Brother had no reservations about her, so she naturally had to express something.

“For example, rice seeds that produce more than 400 kilograms per acre?”

County Magistrate Shen got up and the teacup rolled to the ground and broke.

“Little Girl Ning, you can’t say that casually. Do you know how much ordinary rice produces in an acre?”

She had Ning Fengnian, the experienced farmer, at home, so how could she not know? “About 150 kilograms.” And that was the best quality land..
