In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

Chapter 1075: Arriving at Qingzhou Prefecture

Every time Su Yueyao said something, her eyes never missed a single expression on his face, but Ying Zhan's eyes were always confused, and he had no idea what she was talking about. At that moment, Su Yueyao's heart completely died...

Although Ying Zhan didn't know why Su Yueyao said such strange words, she felt a strong sense of disappointment at the moment and subconsciously asked, "What do you mean by these words, Lady?"

"Nothing, just a few jokes I came up with." Su Yueyao explained after calming down.

Then Su Yueyao said to the people at the door: "Yuanyi, come in!"

After everyone entered the room and sat down, Ying Zhan was the only one standing. Lu Yuanyi and the others heard what Su Yueyao said outside the door. They were also thinking about the meaning of these words. It seemed that they had never heard them before.

"Why did you call me here today? Are you here to discuss cooperation? I want to apologize to you for my mother's rudeness yesterday."

"Your mother is your mother, and you are you. I can tell who is right and who is wrong."

"I called you here today because I have some questions I'd like you to answer. My husband secretly investigated Yingzhou Prefecture yesterday and discovered that the change of household registration for tenant farmers and the construction of commoner schools were both carried out before the imperial decree was issued. I'd like to know who came up with this idea?"

"It was me. When I was fifteen and took over the affairs of Yingzhou Prefecture, my father gave me a test: within a year, if I could double the grain harvests of the fertile farms in Yingzhou Prefecture, I would be allowed to completely take over all the power of the Ying family in Yingzhou Prefecture."

"I also understand that at that time, all the fertile farms, big and small, in Yingzhou Prefecture were owned by the Ying family, and they had the most tenant farmers. If I could double the grain production, it would be good for both the Ying family and Yingzhou Prefecture, so I accepted it."

"I went to the farm with great enthusiasm, but found that the crops were not growing well and the tenant farmers were trying their best. I tried many methods but to no avail."

"Until one day, when I was walking alone to the farmland at night and passed by the tenant farmer's house, I heard intermittent voices inside. They said I was looking for trouble, that they just needed to simply cultivate the land well, and no matter how good the harvest was, it would not belong to them. Even if they cultivated well, there would be no reward."

"They don't care if they know how to grow crops well. Whether they grow crops well or not, there's only so much food for the family each year."

"After listening to them, I thought about it for a long time and analyzed their problems. Finally, I decided to collect tenants from one farm to another. At most, if the land is not theirs, I will give it to them and give them an extra 20% of the grain. The only requirement is that they cultivate the land well."

"Their tenancy was finally abolished two years ago through some means. Since then, the tenants have been very motivated, the harvest has been good, and everyone is very happy."

"I simply didn't want the people to be illiterate. I wanted them to send their children here to study, and I rewarded them with silver. After they finished their studies, they could work in the film studios. Gradually, the academy became more and more established."

After Ying Zhan finished speaking, everyone in the room was silent for a while.

"Young Master Ying, it's understandable that you are very good. You have a clear mind and solve problems when you encounter them. You have clear and precise ideas and you manage the affairs of Yingzhou Prefecture so well."

"Thank you for your compliments, Lady Su. Lady Su, I know you don't like me, but please give the Ying family a chance and let me continue to manage Yingzhou Prefecture. I promise that everything will be based on the laws of the court."

"If we really start a war, the people will suffer first. I can't bear to see the people I protect face a life-and-death situation in the future." Ying Zhan said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

After listening to this, Su Yueyao was silent for a few seconds: "The future depends on the attitude of your Ying family and your ability. I can only guarantee that the court will not take action against you in the short term."

Ying Zhan, who understood, immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, my lady."

"Now that we've talked about it, I won't exchange pleasantries with Young Master Ying. I'll leave Yingzhou Prefecture after lunch."

"Then I wish Miss Su a safe journey in advance."

Ying Zhan bowed and left after he finished speaking.

After everyone watched him leave, Pu An said with a smile: "This Young Master Ying is a talented person. He handles things in an orderly manner and is much more reliable than Zixu."

"Zi Xu is also very capable, but he is a bit more lively and not as steady as Young Master Ying." Cui Yiyang said and continued, "My wife, if you leave this afternoon, I will go and arrange for the staff."

"Let's go! Let's leave this afternoon. The scenery here is beautiful, but I miss Xingchen and the others, as well as Qianqian and the others who are far away in Fengdu."

After Cui Yiyang finished speaking, he pulled Xu Minghe away early.

"Wife, the road below is easier to travel. We don't need to hide from the Ying family. We don't need to take a detour. It will take two days to reach Pingzhou Prefecture. Pingzhou Prefecture is a large grassland. Apart from the prefecture, there are not many county towns along the way. Almost all the population is in Pingzhou Prefecture."

"After entering Pingzhou Prefecture, it is very close to Qingzhou Prefecture." Lu Yuanyi told Su Yueyao.

When Su Yueyao heard Lu Yuanyi's words, she felt as if she was about to arrive in Qingzhou Prefecture and would see Xingchen and the others soon. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She was really happy thinking about happy things.

In this way, Su Yueyao set out from Yingzhou Prefecture in the afternoon and headed straight to Pingzhou Prefecture. When Su Yueyao left Yingzhou Prefecture, Ying Zhan stood on the building opposite the post station and watched Su Yueyao's carriage gradually go away before turning around and leaving.

After that, Su Yueyao sped up her journey almost the entire time. The journey that was supposed to take ten days was compressed into ten days. Su Yueyao arrived at Pingzhou Prefecture, and it would take another day to get from Pingzhou Prefecture to Qingzhou Prefecture.

"My dear wife, it's getting late, go to bed quickly! Yiyang has already contacted Xingchen and the others. We will set off early tomorrow and arrive in Qingzhou Prefecture in the afternoon." Huan Yanxi said with a smile.

"I think you'll be able to see Xingchen and the others as soon as you wake up from your nap tomorrow, so don't get excited, just go to sleep!"

"Okay! Yan Xi is almost tired from traveling recently..."

Su Yueyao fell asleep before she finished speaking. One can imagine how arduous the journey must have been for them.

The next morning, Su Yueyao woke up in the carriage, opened the window, and saw the endless grassland. She felt very comfortable.

"My wife has woken up. We will cross this grassland, go around the small hill in front, and arrive at Qingzhou Prefecture." Mo Rongjin said.

"So soon? Are Xingchen and the others waiting for me at the city gate?"

"It should be! Concubine Cui has already informed them in advance, and they have all replied, so my wife will be able to see them soon." Mo Rongjin said as he took the clothes and helped Su Yueyao put them on.
