Be A Virtuous Wife! So Tough!

C165 – There’s Only One Outcome Death!

Tang Yue was carving a set of tea set in the courtyard. The carving knife seemed to have been glued to his hand as he waved it. In the blink of an eye, a lifelike fish appeared on the tea table.

“Young master…” The butler stood behind him for a long time. When he saw that he had stopped carving, he swung his wrist to rest. Only then did he dare to make a sound.

Tang Yue turned back and asked, “What is it?”

The butler found it hard to say. Although he was very loyal to Crown Prince and treated the crown prince as his priority, he did not agree with Tang Yue’s decision to bring someone home not long after he got married.

Especially after he learned more and more about Crown Princess being a good child that was hard to come by.

“It’s like this. Just now, the guard sent someone back. He said that His Highness saved her when they met on the road. This old servant arranged for her to be in the front yard. Do you think so?”

Tang Yue did not take it to heart. “Since His Highness saved him, then take good care of him. You can do as you see fit.”

On one hand, the butler admired his magnanimity. He did not even ask who it was. On the other hand, he was a little worried. If the two masters were to cause trouble because of this person in the future, it would be terrible.

Thus, the butler secretly decided that he must keep that person in custody and not let him run around.

“Did His Highness say that he would come back for dinner?”

“Yes, but he told you to eat first. There are many things in the yamen and His Highness might come back later.”

“Don’t worry, I have nothing to do at home. I can’t starve. Coincidentally, the flour from the merchant group has also arrived. Tonight, I will make some delicious food for everyone.”

There were many things that flour could make. Steamed buns, dumplings, pancakes, noodles. He could make them for a month by changing them every day.

As for tonight, he would make dumplings first. It was simple and delicious. The main reason was that he really wanted them.

“It’s His Highness’s blessing that young master is so virtuous!” The old butler praised sincerely.

Because of Tang Yue’s appearance, their food was flourishing day by day. They ate until he wished he could reincarnate a few decades later. This way, he would have a good tooth to eat these delicacies.

After being praised by the butler, Tang Yue felt relaxed and relaxed. After resting for a while, he continued to focus on his carving business.

But not long after, the butler came again. He still waited until Tang Yue rested halfway before he spoke. “young master, the leader of the caravan wants to see you. He said he found some things you asked him to find and brought them to you.”

Tang Yue did not care about the tea set. He put away the carving knife and followed the butler to the front hall. He thought the caravan had not found what he wanted.

When they reached the front hall, Tang Yue saw a strong man with a full beard standing at the side in a restrained manner. When he saw the man, he quickly strode over with his hands and feet.

Tang Yue wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh. He did not need to bow to him and asked, “Leader Dan, I have been waiting for a long time.”

“I dare not. This lowly one just arrived a moment ago.” The burly man looked at Tang Yue, at a loss of what to do. He did not know where to look.

He had traveled all over the country for so many years. He had seen many people. They were not timid people. However, the identity of this person in front of him was too different. He did not know what to do when he became Crown Princess as a man.

“What did Leader Shan find? Did you bring them all?”

Only then did the muscular man regain his calm. He took out a big gunny sack from the corner and poured out everything in the gunny sack.

Tang Yue was dumbfounded when he saw the sack. He thought to himself, ‘This old man is really generous. He mixed all the herbs together. I wonder if the effect of the medicine will change.’

Tang Yue had made a list and asked the caravan to help find some herbs unique to the north. It would be best if they could get the seeds.

He squatted down and picked up a withered plant. He looked at it closely. He could barely recognize the roots from its shape and smell.

“This… I don’t know how to transport it. I just want young master to take a look first. If it is useful, I will bring more with me next time. It will be more detailed.”

Tang Yue nodded and began to pick and pick among the pile of rubbish that was like weeds. Some of them were really weeds, but most of them were useful herbs.

When he dug out a ginseng from the pile of weeds, the corner of his mouth twitched.

No matter what era it was, ginseng was a precious herb. He did not expect that it would be thrown into the pile of weeds today. He was really wronged.

Tang Yue raised the ginseng and shook it. “Do you know it?”

The strong man nodded and shook his head. “It looks like a ginseng, but I have never seen it before. I don’t know if it is correct.”

“It’s a ginseng, where did you pick it?” Seeing that the ginseng’s roots were still carrying soil, it was likely that it wasn’t bought.

“This lowly one can’t remember. Perhaps it was on a mountain on the way, but this lowly one has seen quite a few along the way. You like to bring more back next time.”

Tang Yue almost fainted. He did not know whether to admire their luck or to sigh at the richness of the species in this era.

Ginseng could be found on the road!

He said excitedly, “Very good. This is good stuff. No matter how old it is, bring it back if you can.”

“Aye.” Commander Shan carefully recalled the location. He was prepared to write down the location when he returned so as not to forget it.

“Eh, why is there still wheat?” Tang Yue asked as he grabbed a handful of wheat.

“You said that as long as it’s edible, it’s useful. We don’t have anything here, so we can get everything back. I heard that this thing is used to produce that kind of flour, so I brought it back.”

“Well done!” Tang Yue first praised him. When he saw his smiling face as if he had won a big prize of five million yuan, he could not bear to give him a blow. “It’s a pity that you brought back unripe wheat. You can’t even keep seeds.”

“…” The leader of the team was greatly shocked. He awkwardly scratched his hair.

In the end, Tang Yue chose more than a dozen medicinal ingredients. They were mainly white shao licorice and dragon gallbladder, which were relatively common.

He also found a few pieces of Angelica inside. The smell alone was very heavy, and ordinary people would not take a fancy to him.

The leader looked at Tang Yue sniffing and knocking. He even pinched a piece of Angelica and put it into his mouth to chew. He closed his eyes sympathetically.

He had smelled this thing before. It was too ugly. If he had not heard from the local people that this thing was also a medicinal herb, he would not have brought it back.

“What is this young master? Is it really a medicinal herb?”

“Of course it is. This thing is called Angelica. It has the ability to replenish blood and blood. It can regulate the pain and moisturize the intestines. It is good stuff.”

When the leader heard that it was a good thing, he grinned and thought to himself, Why did I just randomly dig a wild vegetable back? It’s a good thing. Crown Princess knew a lot.

Tang Yue got Angelica. The first thing he did was to let the kitchen slaughter a chicken and stew it. Together with Angelica, Party Ginseng, and wolfberry, he ate dumplings at night. It was delicious and nutritious.

In the Prime Minister’s residence, dozens of officials were sitting upright. Some of them were scared out of their wits when they heard the young man reading out a long list. Some of them were smiling and comforting.

Within the Prime Minister’s Estate, there was a meeting hall of a hundred officials. On normal days, the Prime Minister would preside over the court meeting, and then lead the report.

From this, it could be seen that the position of Prime Minister had great power.

“The above seventeen officials have all participated in this case of corruption, and the amount of money involved is small. How should it be distributed will be drawn up by the Imperial Lieutenant and handed over to the King for approval.” Wang Dingjun took a few steps back after he finished speaking and stood behind Crown Prince Zhao in an orderly manner.

For a moment, the officials kneeling on the ground let out a long sigh.

Crown Prince Zhao waved his hand and ordered, “Capture these seventeen people first. The vacancies will be temporarily replaced by their deputies.”

“Your Highness… please spare my life… Your Highness…”

“Your Highness, please forgive this old official for his meritorious service in the past.”

All sorts of pleas for mercy were displayed. Crown Prince Zhao didn’t want to hear any of them. He waved his hand and asked the others to take him away.

Wait! After the hall quieted down, Crown Prince Zhao continued, “No matter how much credit you have made in the past, how much power you have now, how dare you disregard the laws of the court and disregard human lives for personal gain? There is only one outcome: death!”

“Your Highness is wise!” The officials all flattered him.

“Let’s close this case first. I know that we will be able to pull out a series of officials later. However, I will let you off this time. I will not let you off if you commit any more crimes.”

“Then… Your Highness, who should I write this memorial in?”

This kind of small matter will be handled by the Prime Minister himself. Crown Prince Zhao did not want this to happen. He had even pushed the credit of this investigation to a few of his subordinates.

However, even though he did not take any credit on the surface, everyone knew that Crown Prince was not only strong in martial arts, but also capable of commanding soldiers. He was also a wise man who was rarely seen in the world. He had great strategies.

Therefore, the more Crown Prince Zhao’s reputation spread, the better. King of South Jin also took a liking to him, but the thorn buried in his heart also rose higher and higher.
