Chapter 238 If we are destined to be together, we can start over again!
The next morning, before Shen Ruyi got up, she felt someone beside her bed. She knew in her heart that it was the man again.
Shen Ruyi opened her eyes and looked at the man who was so close to her. The man couldn't help but pecked her lips gently, and then pecked her forehead.
"Ruyi, cousin is leaving, and I really can't bear to let you go... In the past, I only heard those old soldiers in the barracks say that the land of gentleness is the grave of heroes, but I really don't believe it.
But now my cousin really understands. Cousin, you don’t want to leave, but...but I have to go!
Ruyi promised her cousin... before her cousin comes back, you won't like anyone else, okay?"
Shen Ruyi sighed in her heart, looking at the man so close to her. His eyes were bloodshot, and it was obvious that he had not slept all night. She didn't know how long he had been sitting in his room, but she estimated that he had been here for a long time.
She knew that the man was going to the war, and in the cold weapon wars of this era, many people might never come back.
At this moment, Shen Ruyi's heart softened. Thinking about how she and he first met and fell in love, she was really heartbroken...
"Cousin, I'm not a heartless person, but I can't promise you anything right now. If you survive and come back, and we're still destined to be together, then we can start all over again!
The man was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes: "Ruyi, are you serious? You said that if we are destined to be together, we can start all over again!"
"Cousin, I'm not saying that I don't care about chastity, I just think that thing is over and it's not what you and I intended.
But I am not a casual person. Such a thing will not happen to anyone casually. If you come back safely and we are still destined to be together, then let's start over and give each other a chance!
But if something irreversible happens to us during this period, there is nothing we can do. I hope you can understand me!"
Take a sip!
The man kissed the little girl on the cheek, then he stood up and grinned. At this moment, the man's smile really came from the bottom of his heart.
"You are my destiny. You can only be my destiny in this life!
Ruyi, cousin, you have to leave without delay. The troops have gathered outside the city and will set out today!
You just wait for your cousin at home. All difficulties and obstacles are not a problem for your cousin. Just wait for your cousin as you wish.
From now on, Ruyi doesn’t have to work hard. Just stand there and let your cousin work hard!
Ruyi, you are destined to be your cousin's wife for the rest of your life. You can't like anyone else, understand?"
Shen Ruyi was so angry that she laughed: "I didn't sell it to you, nor did I give it to you, and I'm still rebelling against you!"
"Haha! Even if Ruyi marries someone else, my cousin will snatch you back when he comes back!"
Shen Ruyi...
The man turned around and strode out of Shen Ruyi's room. Shen Ruyi looked at the man's back and suddenly felt like something was missing in her heart!
Thinking about what happened between them, she felt really sad. She had truly loved him and wanted to be with him for the rest of his life, but then some things happened that became a hurdle in her heart that she couldn't get over!
Now that I think about it, if two people are going to get married, it can't be smooth sailing...
As I said, if we are destined to be together, let’s start all over again!
Outside the gate of the capital city early in the morning, Crown Prince Qin Jinan stood on a huge rock with his tall and broad body, looking at the dark masses of Qin's army and Wei's army below.
His son and Wei Wanlin were both dressed in military uniforms, and their subordinates behind them were also in high spirits.
Prince Qin Jinan smiled kindly: "All the soldiers of the Qin Army and the Wei Army!
I have carried out this for you, and I hope that you will have a smooth journey, be victorious, return triumphantly, and come back safely!
The Qin court thanks the soldiers for fighting for the country and the people with their lives!
Don't worry, everyone. As long as we drive away the foreign invasion, the imperial court will definitely reward you according to your merits and will not forget every hero who fought bravely for the Qin Dynasty!"
Qin Beiyu and Wei Wanlin shouted in unison: Thank you, Your Highness!
Prince Qin Jinan nodded: "Okay! All Qin's army and Wei's army, listen to my command, and march out!"
I have received your order!
The army sets off!
The army sets off!
On July 12, the 39th year of the Qin Bogu reign, the Qin army, led by Prince Qin Beiyu, led an army of 100,000 and headed straight for Xiliang to fight against the invasion of the Xiliang army.
At the same time, the Wei family army, led by commander Wei Wanlin, had an army of 100,000 and rushed straight to the border of Dongguan State to fight against the invasion of Dongguan State!
In ancient times, marching and fighting was a sheer waste of money and effort. As soon as the army set out, food and military supplies flowed in like water!
The food and fodder were in front and the army was behind. The two groups of troops had a total of 200,000 people. The daily consumption of food and fodder and military supplies was indeed astonishing.
In other words, the Great Qin Empire was able to hold out, with these 200,000 troops divided into two groups to fight against the foreign enemies. If it were a small country, it would not be able to fight at all!
Besides, the drought continued across the country. Seven out of ten crops in the territory of Daqin were lost. There was still some income in the south of the Yangtze River, but the yield had decreased significantly.
It is probably only at Fulu Villa, with Shen Ruyi's spiritual spring water and not too many water sources, plus the father and son of the Wei family who worked day and night to fight drought, that they were able to maintain a normal harvest.
In early August, Shen Ruyi took her father and her younger brother Wei Wanqian to Fulu Villa.
Wei Zhendong brought a group of his men to the farmland below Fulu Villa. Looking at the heavy grains all over the mountains, everyone was so happy that they almost cried.
Wei Zhendong has come here every day since his wife was about to turn one month old, watching over the crops day and night. These are life-saving things. In years of famine, food is life!
Soon, the Crown Prince Qin Jinan's carriage arrived at Fulu Villa, and he also brought some officials with him today.
When Shen Ruyi saw her uncle the Crown Prince coming, she went to greet him with her father. Today, not only did the Crown Prince Qin Jinan come by himself, he also brought a group of officials from the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Agriculture!
Qin Jinan got off the sedan chair and saw Shen Ruyi and said happily: "Ruyi, there is nothing to do today. His Highness' uncle brought people from the Ministry of Revenue to come and see your crops. I heard that your father said that they are preparing to harvest them."
Shen Ruyi frowned and said, "Well! Your Highness, uncle, the tens of thousands of acres of fertile land below Fulu Villa must be harvested quickly. After harvesting, we must plant vegetables while there is still some water. Otherwise, we may not be able to eat vegetables this winter."
Old man Pan Song, the Minister of Revenue, couldn't help but take a few steps forward. Several officials from the Private Farming Department also rushed over. Everyone couldn't help but shout in surprise: "This is really a blessed land. Everywhere else there is drought and all the crops have been destroyed, but here we have a lot of harvest!"
Pan Song was so happy that he burst into tears: "Your Highness! This Fulu Villa is indeed a treasure land. With the food from Fulu Villa, we don't have to worry about the people in the capital starving to death this winter."
Prince Qin Jinan said with a smile: "Zhendong, I know that the reason why Fulu Villa has such a good harvest is because you, the Wei family army, have been watering and irrigating it day and night. Only then have we achieved today's results. I am grateful to you on behalf of all the people!"
Wei Zhendong smiled innocently: "Your Highness, you are too kind. Food is the most important thing for the people. I am old now and cannot go out to fight. I stay at home and take good care of the fertile land. Can I watch my wife and children starve to death?"
Everyone burst into laughter, and Pan Song's face was wrinkled with laughter: "You, the Prince of Fuguo, are really wasting your talents."
Prince Qin Jinan smiled and shook his head: "Zhendong, you are not wasting your talent. When it comes to growing food and tending crops, the Duke of Fuguo is the best!
Although our Great Qin Dynasty had good weather and abundant harvests in previous years, it encountered a year of famine, and it was immediately clear who was the master of farming! "
Shen Ruyi walked over with a smile and came to the ridge of the field: "Your Highness, uncle, these tens of thousands of acres of good farmland are estimated to have a high yield per acre. Can you please send some people to help harvest the crops? Otherwise, if we are slow to harvest the crops, it will definitely delay the planting of vegetables!"
Prince Qin Jinan rubbed his big fat hands and said, "Okay! All officials from various departments should go home and mobilize the unemployed people at home. Starting tomorrow, they will have a three to five-day break and come here to help harvest the crops!"
Chen Shengda also looked at the crops at the foot of Fulu Villa from behind. He really couldn't help but be amazed. He didn't want Shen and Ruyi to be so generous that they could donate 4 million kilograms of grain just by opening their mouths. Looking at the crops under Fulu Villa, the annual harvest of the land is estimated to be astonishing.
Thinking about how he had missed out on this incredible wealth, he felt so angry that his heart was bleeding.
Suddenly, a snake suddenly jumped out from the field. Because when Shen Ruyi was drinking water today, the spiritual spring water dripped onto her skirt. The snake suddenly rushed towards Shen Ruyi!
Maybe Chen Shengda acted out of instinct, or maybe it was the nature of father and daughter, influenced by the blood in their bones.
“Ruyi…be careful!”
Chen Shengda roared, rushed over, and kicked the snake!
Before everyone could react, they suddenly saw Chen Shengda rushing over, kicking a rat snake away, and then he pounced on Shen Ruyi.
Shen Ruyi staggered after being knocked down, and was helped by Crown Prince Qin Jinan, but she almost fell to the ground.
Suddenly, Chen Shengda and Wei Zhendong shouted at the same time: "Ruyi..."
Shen Ruyi...
