Close to Fanyue Border Pass, the ground environment is not as bad as Jin Jiuying's imagination, green mountains and green waters, mountains and waters, waters and mountains.
In such a place, fighting seems to be a bit difficult. If you are not familiar with Yamagata, it is easy to suffer.
The disaster in Hucheng is worse than reported. Although the water has receded, traces of blisters can still be seen everywhere.
On this road, when Jin Jiuying was approaching Tiger City, he saw hungry people who couldn’t walk anywhere. They were mostly young, old, women and children, and occasionally there was a man who accompanied him, carrying a large and small baggage. Escape.
In the city, most of them are closed, and it is rare to see a few people.
The rain in Tiger City this time is rare in a thousand years, so this flood made this place a bit caught off guard. Now that Tiger City can live normally, it is close to some residents of West City.
Because the terrain was high over there, the water was not soaking, but most of the people's food was also donated to rescue other flooded people after the flood.
The county government in Hucheng was originally in a high place. I heard that the granary was always full, but after the flood, it was empty and I didn’t know where the rice was going.
Some people here suspect that the grandfather of the county hid it, and some suspect that the uncle Shen Rong and his nephew, Li Yue, the son of Sister Shen Xin, did it.
I want to wait for the disaster to pass, and the people will regroup and rebuild their homes, then sell them at a high price and extortion them for a good amount of money.
After all, there are not many people who have food here, but those who don’t leave will have to eat if they want to live here.
"Excuse me, is this the home of Uncle Shin Rong Shin Guo?"
Jin Jiuying made a circle around Tiger City and came to a large manor outside the city and knocked on the door of that house.
Shen Rong's house is as magnificent as any minister's house, and even many princes' palaces are inferior to his residences. Some people say that this is still outside, with gardens and rockery inside.
I heard that his house is even connected to a rockery. The basement was built from a tunnel. The basement is the same as the mansion, or even bigger, just like a palace or even a city.
This is the house, the room furnishings, and calligraphy and painting, and the price is very rich.
However, Shen Rong did not show off, because he was afraid of committing crimes, so he was greedy in secret and enjoyed in secret. Normal people step into his mansion and don't even want to see the luxury of his house.
Of course it is for people with status, ordinary people seeing this house, which is the gate of this talented person, will make them drop their jaws in shock.
"Who are you?"
After Jin Jiuying knocked on the door a few times, a fat man poked his head out of the door and asked her a question.
"My name is Jin, I come from the imperial city."
Jin Jiuying must report to the door, otherwise he won't be able to enter the house.
This country's uncle is not small, ordinary people, he will not meet, and people who come here, generally can't cross this threshold.
"Miss, wait a minute, let me go and tell the master again." The man replied to Jin Jiuying and turned back to the room.
Jin Jiuying nodded slightly, and stood at the door waiting for news.
It is said that it was from the imperial city that Shen Rong would not miss it, but how he would meet, I am afraid it is a bit difficult to say.
"Miss Jin, my master would like to please."
When Jin Jiuying was still at the door thinking about who this uncle was, the door opened again, and it was the same person who came out and called her.
This time, Jin Jiuying saw this man's dress clearly. She wore a long blue cloth. It seemed that she should be a housekeeper. Because the door was inside, those people looked at him, they were very honest, even those who worked hurriedly humbled. Ended up.
"Miss Jin uses tea first, the master is changing clothes. She will be out soon."
The man took Jin Jiuying to an elegantly furnished room, had tea served to her, and then retired.
After drinking a third of a cup of tea, Jin Jiuying finally waited for the legendary mysterious country uncle.
"Are you Miss Jin from the Imperial City?"
Just as Jin Jiuying took a sip of tea into her mouth, a voice rang behind her.
Jin Jiu was so scared that he was choked by the shadows. This man walked without sound, just like a ghost.
This country’s uncle is not a miraculous person, he is less than 1.75 meters tall, not very fat, but his face is not small, his nose looks like he was squashed by something, but his eyes are very similar to Shen Xin. But her face was slightly shiny, and her belly felt a bit firm. Although she had worn a lot in this winter, she could still see her belly.
"Exactly, Ying'er is polite here. Uncle Guo is in good health."
Jin Jiuying stood up, took a quick look at Shen Rong, and then saluted him according to the etiquette here.
"Ying'er, are you the prince's prospective concubine Jin Jiumei?"
Seeing Jin Jiuying, Shen Rong greeted her first, then motioned to her to sit down, and asked the maid to change her tea again.
Shen Rong is really well informed. It seems that the uncle of the country who is far away in the border is also quite clear about the news of the imperial city.
"Uncle Guo praised him, Ying'er was the second child at home, and the eldest sister's name was Jin Jiumei." Jin Jiuying returned to him pretendingly, but guessed that he did not know that she was the second child of the Jin family.
"No, no, no, Miss Jin Jiumei was born in the second room. According to the etiquette, she should be the second child, and the crown princess is born in the main room. The regular lady of the Jin family, the crown princess should not deceive the old ministers from the border. The news is not Spirit."
Shen Rong smiled and replied.
And his answer, Jin Jiuying had guessed early, in fact, the rules of Shengyuan Country are very clear.
Those born in the main house, no matter how young they are, are the eldest sons and eldest daughters, regular eldest ladies and eldest masters.
Those born in the side room can only be young ladies, young masters, or a few young ladies and young masters.
However, Jin Jiuying did not receive this treatment at home, because she did not spoil her mother, nor was she optimistic about her sisters, so Jin Jiumei was more respected.
It wasn't until Jin Jiuying and Jin Jiumei got married that her status at home improved, and they didn't dare to bully her.
"This is not so important in our family. Uncle Guo knows that our sisters have good relationships, and we never distinguish between those. My mother and auntie are also very close to each other. At home, we are considered as sisters and we are divided into big and small."
Jin Jiuying knows that this is the usual polite dialogue here. Of course, these remarks are used to cover up family ugliness. No matter how unkind people at home, they will speak so nicely when they go out.
"Well, this veteran is a believer. People who know books and respects like the princess are naturally in a family that is filial to the father and the son, and the family is beautiful."
I have to say that Shen Rong is quite good at speaking, knowing that this is a general etiquette reply, and it can be said so nicely.
It didn't matter that these nonsense was more and less talked, so Jin Jiuying could only smile, and then brought the topic to business.
