We had a Chinese meal together and said a few scenes, both salty and unrestrained. The first meeting between Qin Feng and Cheng Wuben ended hastily.

"I didn't expect that Qin Feng was still so busy on New Year's Eve." After Qin Feng left, Cheng Wuben said with a sourness. "No wonder he was able to achieve such a success in such a short time."

"Don't blame Uncle Cheng, Qin Feng does have something to do!" Min Ruoxi explained: "He wants to go to various villages around Taiping City with some officials. This year, more and more people have escaped from Qidi, and many new villages have been built. However, due to the limited conditions, these villages are extremely simple, most of them are still thatched huts, and the snow is particularly heavy this year. Qin Feng is worried that something will happen, so he goes and sees it, and can solve some practical problems by the way."

"Escaped from Qidi?" Cheng Wuben was excited.

"It was said that it was Qidi, but in fact, it was also the territory of Yue people in the past, and it was snatched away by Qi people. Qidi was very strict with these Yue people in the past and exploited them very much. Some people could not bear it, so they fled to Taiping City." Min Ruoxi said: "Around this year, Qin Feng said that there were about thousands of people coming, and more than ten villages were built around, and most of them had to rely on relief to survive!"

"Can the Taiping Army bear the financial resources?" Cheng Wuben asked.

"This is nothing." Min Ruoxi smiled: "The Taiping Army's finances are in good condition now. Even if they are not good, Qin Feng said that since he came to join him, he believed in the Taiping Army. Even if he was saving money, he would let these people survive."

"Qin Feng has a compassionate heart." Cheng Wuben nodded and praised.

"That's not all." Min Ruoxi smiled. She also felt honored to be praised by Cheng Wuben. "Qin Feng often said that talent is the foundation. Only with people can everything. It seems that these people will have to invest a lot in the early stage, but in the long run, these people are contributors to financial resources and the source of soldiers. Small investment can bring big returns. If you don't do such things seriously, you are a fool!"

"The reason is very simple, but how many things can be really done!" Cheng Wuben sighed. "This is why Taiping City can develop to this level in a short period of time!"

"I have only been here for a while. I usually only ask about political affairs, and I don't know about it," said Min Ruoxi.

After chanting for a moment, Cheng Wuben said, "I remember when I went to the capital, His Royal Highness the Princess was in charge of Jiying Hall, and he was also involved in political affairs. He is not unfamiliar with political affairs."

"I am not Your Highness the Princess now, but Mrs. Qin." Min Ruoxi said lightly.

Cheng Wuben shook his head, "Your Highness, blood and family affection, even if the bones are broken, there is still a tendon. You suddenly left this time. The Empress Dowager is not sure how sad it is. I came to Baoqing before, and the Empress Dowager summoned me. The Empress Dowager was very clear. When he saw me, he couldn't help crying. One was thinking about the princess, and the other was missing the two children very much."

Min Ruoxi's eyes were slightly red, but she forced herself to not shed tears.

"The Queen Mother said, Princess, I don't know when you will see you and your two children again. She is not young anymore, and I don't know if there is any chance?" Cheng Wuben sighed: "I claim to be a stern heart, but I couldn't help but burst into tears at that time. Sometimes, the royal family is really freer than ordinary people. Even if the relatives are far apart, there is always a chance to visit, but the royal family sometimes feels like a farewell! Your Highness, the Queen Mother really hopes to see you again!"

Min Ruoxi lowered her head silently. Cheng Wuben said it well. In her current situation, she wanted to go back to the capital again, and the chances were really slim.

"Maybe there is still a chance." She struggled.

"The boxes shipped outside are some of the dowry prepared by the Queen Mother for you, some of them are rewarded by His Majesty the Emperor, and some of them are some of the things you are used to in Princess Zhaohua's mansion. In addition, among the yellow boxes, there are some items collected by the Queen Mother. I don't know what it is." Cheng Wuben stood up, "Your Highness, I drink a lot today, a little tired, I want to leave and rest for a while."

Cheng Wuben is an extremely smart person. If you click on many things, the effect will be better. If you say too much, it will be less beautiful.

Min Ruoxi nodded, and Cheng Wuben left.

Looking up at the boxes piled up in the yard, Min Ruoxi's eyes finally fell aside, on the yellow boxes. "Yinggu, please help me bring the box that looks like yellow." She said softly.

The lid of the box was opened, and it looked very messy inside. There were children's clothes, broken toys, broken books, tender manuscripts, and wooden swords with broken pieces. It looked like some things that had been old. Looking at the things in the box, Yinggu was a little puzzled, so Min Ruoxi burst into tears in an instant. During the Chinese New Year, the mother would always take them out to show off to her children. These were the old things of her children she had collected since she was a child. She didn't think there was anything, but she felt that the mother was just too idle to find something to do, but now she saw it, but she was heartbroken.

Seeing Min Ruoxi crying bitterly, Yinggu also reacted and squatted down and put it on Min Ruoxi's shoulder: "Your Highness, don't be sad. When will you really miss the Queen Mother? Yinggu will accompany you back to the capital. With our martial arts cultivation, there is no way to go to the world."

He raised his head and was still carrying rain from the pear blossoms. "Yinggu, it's different. You can't go, but I can't go. If Qin Feng is in a difficult situation in the future, I can't go back. Once he goes back, he may never come out. But if Qin Feng's strength becomes stronger, I can't go back, because it will cause turmoil, suspicion, and even turn against each other."

Yinggu sighed. This was the sadness of the upper class. The simplest thing to ordinary people is, to them, is nothing like a natural barrier that cannot be overcome. Their extremely ordinary action will also be regarded as a political signal, which will cause misreading other forces and cause trouble, so they have to be careful.

People can only see their prominent scenery, but they cannot understand what they have lost.

If you gain something, you will inevitably lose something. Fish and bear's paws will never be able to get both. Everyone pursues different things, so naturally they will lose differently.

On the other end of the yard, Cheng Wuben sat in front of the round table, and was enjoying the tea leisurely. This was the first time he had seen such a round table. They usually used the eight immortal table with square edges and straight edges. They were placed in the main hall, and the upper and lower ranks were obvious at a glance. But these were not seen in this round table. What’s even more strange is that the table actually has two layers, one layer smaller in the upper part, and it can actually turn. With a pull of your hand, you can slowly turn it. This is convenient. At least when you eat, you can eat any dishes at any time.

He was very curious about this, holding tea in one hand and pulling the table in the other. The sobs of Min Ruoxi from the other side of the main room came faintly in his ears, which were a little far apart, but with his clever ears and eyes, as long as he wanted to hear them, he could hear them naturally.

Although Luo Liang was not liked by him and was a typical villain, it must be said that Luo Liang has a strong grasp of people's hearts. His princess was very resentful towards Min Ruoying because of the death of the western border army, the affairs of Qin Feng, and the affairs of Min Ruocheng. He could be said to be hated and decided to leave with Qin Feng. However, Luo Liang asserted that with His princess' temperament, it would definitely not be possible to break with Da Chu. With Qin Feng's increasingly powerful strength, Min Ruoxi's existence as the mistress of the Taiping Army will inevitably have great benefits for the future Da Chu.

Of course, this benefit is definitely not visible now, but over time, it will inevitably appear bit by bit. Even if Min Ruoxi does nothing, her identity as the eldest princess of the Great Chu is enough to make Qi's country think about it. Or in normal times, these suspicions will not have any particularly big impact, but at the death moment, this mutual suspicion will affect the formulation of the most fundamental strategy.

Qin Feng must have hated Chu State very much, but at some point, he would respond involuntarily because of the general trend and the strategies formulated by his opponent. It can be imagined that these responses will definitely benefit Chu State more than hold back.

This time he went to Taiping City, he did not think of any major breakthrough. For him, Qin Feng could allow him to go to Taiping City, even as his mother's family, it was a major diplomatic breakthrough for the State of Chu, and he entered a thread between the Qi people and Qin Feng. The Qi people will not turn against Qin Feng now, but the accidents that occurred in connection will make the Qi people only able to fight against Qin Feng and remain neutral. This is actually a victory for the Chu people.

Since you are relatives, you will naturally come and go in the future. The cracks between His Majesty the Emperor and the leader of the Taiping Army and generals will be filled with little by little through this long-term relationship. People will change. As long as the interests reach a certain level, Cheng Wuben does not believe that these cracks cannot be bridged.

He has now vaguely seen Qin Feng's strategic intentions. He is based in Shayang and Changyang counties, constantly expanding his strength and making good friends with Qi, but he is also inseparable from Chu to restrain Qi. He holds the flag of Yue, but secretly sharpens his sword. Everything shows that Qin Feng is preparing to replace Yue.

Putting Luo Yishui away is a masterpiece. In this regard, Cheng Wuben admires Qin Feng very much. Luo Yishui's departure will inevitably lead to chaos in Yue Kingdom. Yue Kingdom may have a large-scale civil war. Once the fight begins, Qin Feng will have a chance.

The State of Chu should help Qin Feng with his help in this process.
