I’m the Farmgirl You Can’t Mess With
Chapter 783 - Chapter 783 Peaceful Times

Chapter 783: Peaceful Times Chapter 783: Peaceful Times Editor: Atlas Studios When Luo Zhan returned, he gathered all his guards and stared at them with a slightly dark gaze.

Luodian was not far from Ju Prefecture, but it was an arduous journey to travel between the two places.

Even the most familiar cavalry would take five days to travel back and forth.

Based on this, it was definitely impossible for Prince Rong’s men to go to Luodian to find out about the grain seeds.

Moreover, Zhancheng Rice was indeed only planted on a small scale in Luodian.

Even if they ask an ordinary citizen about it, they definitely would not be able to get an answer.

Furthermore, the upper echelons had long come to a consensus.

Not to mention five days, even if they were given ten days, they would not be able to find out anything about it.

He had only been in Ju Prefecture for four days, and the grain seeds had only been given to Prince Rong the day before yesterday.

How did Princess Consort Rong know that the grain seeds came from Annan’s Zhancheng?

This information could only be obtained from the people around him.

Someone had betrayed him!

When the personal guard saw Luo Zhan’s ugly expression, he went up and whispered, “Second Young Master, it might just be a coincidenceaEUR|” Luo Zhan glared at him.

“Do you believe this?

Who would use the words ‘Zhancheng’ to name grain seeds?

She clearly knew that these grain seeds entered Luodian from Annan’s Zhancheng.” The personal guard guessed, “Perhaps there’s someone among the Prince’s estate who recognizes these grain seeds.

Didn’t they say that Great Qi had just subdued Dali, and Dali’s eldest princess had lived in the General’s Residence for a period of time?

Considering Annan and Dali are very close, it’s not surprising that they know about this.” Luo Zhan frowned and remained silent.

The personal guard said in a low voice, “Second Young Master, since the Prince’s estate has already guessed that this grain seed doesn’t come from Luodian, then the garrisonaEUR|” Luodian gritted his teeth and said, “Wait!

We’ll go back after we receive the news.” If he had gone back before seeing Qi Haoran yesterday, although he would have offended the Prince’s estate, he still had a way to remedy the situation.

He would only be dealt some light punishment by his father when he went back.

But now that he had already revealed all their trump cards, his returning would only cause trouble for his clansmen.

Therefore, he might as well wait until he received a confirmed reply before deciding if he should go back.

If the Prince’s estate wanted to punish them for lying, he would bear the responsibility and say that he’d done it out of greed and an eagerness to show off his ability.

This way, his father and clansmen wouldn’t be implicated.

Luo Zhan secretly gritted his teeth.

He could only blame himself for underestimating Prince Rong at the beginning.

Having been to West Xia, Dali, and Annan, he’d thought that he had seen a lot of the world.

Moreover, he’d been dismissive of Qi Haoran seeing as he was only the son of a fourth-grade official in the past.

Meanwhile, the personal guard sighed in his heart.

Second Young Master had always had the habit of underestimating his enemy.

They had also cautioned him about this before, but because Luodian was autonomous, the smart Second Young Master held great power in Luodian County and so had never suffered any setbacks.

Thus, he’d always dismissed such advice.

Perhaps it was good for him to suffer a loss this time, lest he suffered an even bigger loss next time.

Although Prince Rong treated his Second Young Master harshly, he wouldn’t deal with him.

This kind of lesson was obviously much less severe than causing a huge disaster in the future.

After Luo Zhan made up his mind to wait for an outcome, he shamelessly went to visit every other day to ask.

Seeing that Luo Zhan, who was originally a little impetuous and conceited, had become humble, Qi Haoran said to Mu Yangling with a smile, “I didn’t expect that I’d accidentally help the patriarch of the Luo clan teach his son.” He looked at his son, who was sitting cross-legged on the brick bed and playing with building blocks.

“In the future, we have to teach our son that no matter how proud he is or how weak his opponent is, he mustn’t underestimate his opponent.” Mu Yangling also looked at Little Bear and nodded.

Qi Haoran touched her slightly protruding stomach and said, “You have to teach the one in your stomach well too.

When the time comes, let Little Bear learn alongside his brother.” Mu Yangling slapped his hand away and said, “How do you know that this is a son?

What if it’s a daughter?

Now, Little Bear calls him younger brother every day.

What if it turns out to be a younger sister?

Let’s see how you’re going to make it up to him.” Qi Haoran said confidently, “If I say this is a son, then this must be a son.” “How do you know?” “How can I not know about my offspring?” Mu Yangling’s feet itched and she really wanted to kick him off the brick bed.

Qi Haoran chuckled and grabbed Mu Yangling’s foot.

“I’ve been wanting to ask you.

How did it occur to you to trick Luo Zhan?” Could Mu Yangling tell him that she’d come up with that speculation after thinking long and hard for two nights?

The development of history could be traced.

After the Great Song perished, Great Zhou came into existence.

Though Great Zhou and Great Song shared a similar history, it was undeniable that the speed at which Great Zhou perished was faster than Great Song.

Furthermore, it was recorded in history that the commercial activities of Great Zhou were even more prosperous than Great Song’s.

As Mu Yangling flipped through the history books and topography books, she tried hard to recall the history stuff she had learned in her previous life.

The only thing she thought of was that the only high-yielding grain seeds that appeared at this time were Zhancheng Rice.

Coincidentally, Luodian bordered not only West Xia but also the Annan Nation.

She remembered that in her previous life, during the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhancheng Rice had entered Fujian via the sea before spreading to Jiangnan.

It was currently the Southern Song Dynasty, but there was not yet news of Zhancheng Rice in Fujian.

Since in the Later Tang, history could take a great turn and see the Great Song turn into Great Zhou, what else was impossible?

It was just that the transmission route of Zhancheng Rice changed from a water route to a land route.

If Mu Yangling only had a vague guess at that time and wasn’t sure, then the strange expression on Luo Zhan’s face confirmed this guess.

However, how should she tell Qi Haoran this?

She could neither tell him the truth nor lie to him.

Hence, she could only look straight at him and say, “I came up with this guess after studying various history and local topography books.” Qi Haoran looked at her, chuckling to himself.

He knew that his wife had hidden the key point, but he did not get to the bottom of it.

Instead, he only praised himself.

“As expected of my Princess Consort.

You’re really smart!” Mu Yangling burst out laughing, her eyes slightly moist.

Qi Haoran was always like this.

Whenever she felt that life was as calm as plain water, stable and happy, he would throw down a drop of honey, stirring up the lake water, making her feel a sweetness from the bottom of her heart.

Mu Yangling tilted her head slightly and leaned her head on his shoulder.

She said with a smile, “If by the time we’re old you still treat me so well, I’ll tell you a story.

A very, very long story.” This time, Qi Haoran did not become mad because Mu Yangling questioned their future.

He only wrapped his arms around her and agreed softly.

He had long sensed that there was something in Ah Ling’s heart, but he had never asked her about itaEUR”not in the past and not now either.

If in the future she still didn’t want to talk about it, he’d never ask.

After Little Bear stacked the building blocks into the shape of a house, he clapped happily.

Just as he was about to show off to his parents, he turned around and saw them hugging each other.

His father even placed his hand on his mother’s stomach to greet his baby brother.

Instantly jealous, Little Bear shouted, “Brother belongs to me!” He quickly crawled over, grabbed his father’s hand, and pushed it away, squeezing into his mother’s embrace.

His entire head was lying on his mother’s stomach.

After a long time, he raised his head and said to his father seriously, “Daddy, you’re squeezing Little Brother.

You’re really too annoying.

You’re not allowed to touch my baby brother anymore, understand?

Look, he’s so angry now that he’s not even greeting me.” Qi Haoran muttered softly, “RascalaEUR|” Mu Yangling looked at the father and son and giggled, letting them fool around.
