Chapter 598: Jurchen princess
The woman is followed by a dozen capable-looking followers, giving the impression that she is a practicing practitioner, and her skills must be good.
When Wei Ruo was sizing up the other party, the other party was also sizing up Wei Ruo.
Her gaze was very direct and explicit, revealing a strong sense of curiosity and exploration.
Are you Princess Rui? You dont look like anything special! The woman pursed her lips.
Why, do you still want me to be special? Wei Ruo asked.
"I saw sights around here that I didn't expect, and I heard a lot about your deeds. I said that you renovated the neighborhood in just three months, which made me feel that you are a very special person." The woman. road.
"So?" Wei Ruo looked at the woman with interest.
"So...are you going to just shout to me at the gate? Don't you want me to come in and sit down?" The woman's smile was filled with confidence, and her eyebrows were playful.
"Your identity is unknown and you are extremely dangerous. Inviting you in might bring me huge trouble. Why should I do such a thankless thing? If you have anything to say, just say it here." Wei Ruodao.
"What you said makes sense." The woman thought about it seriously, "Now I am asking for something from you, so I really need to make my intention clear first so that you can understand that I have no ill intentions."
Listening to this person's words, Wei Ruo found that this person seemed to be quite different from what she had just expected.
The woman began to introduce herself: "My name is Zheta, and I am the leader of the Yehe tribe."
The woman continued: "Recently, I heard from the businessmen between us and you that a powerful man came to Jiliao recently to teach the people here to farm and grow a kind of grain with high yield, so that the people can After we had enough to eat, we also tidied up the place, took in refugees, and adopted orphans.
"I was very curious, so I came to take a look in person. Unexpectedly, when I got here, I found that the situation was even better than I thought. I used to sneak into Jiliao among the business people, and the situation was much worse than it is now."
In just three months, you can make such a big change here. If I give you three years, I cant even imagine what you can do, so I want to meet you.
Zheta explained to Wei Ruo why she wanted to see her.
Wei Ruo was a little surprised. When she came out to see this woman, she thought she was here to cause trouble for her.
Meet me, and then what? Wei Ruo asked.
"I'm asking you for advice, and then I hope you can provide us with some potato seeds for me to take back and give them to the people of my tribe for planting, because if this crop can really bring such great benefits, it can also bring great benefits to our tribe. Solve the food shortage problem."
Wei Ruo had a different opinion of this Jurchen princess in her heart, but she did not show it on her face and remained cold. She asked: "Why do you think I will help the hostile forces that are eyeing our great cause? I have fattened you up. What should we do if the time comes to attack our great cause?"
"We Jurchens have many tribes, and not every tribe is eyeing your great cause, at least not the Yehe tribe led by my Amma. Rather than invading the land of your great cause, I want our tribe to have enough food and clothing."
After listening to Zheta's description, Wei Ruo thought for a long time and then smiled.
Why are you laughing? Zheta asked.
I laugh at your naivety. Wei Ruodao.
"You think I'm naive? What about you? Aren't you doing the same thing? Why can you do it and I can't?" Zheta asked.
She held her head high, her eyes confident and firm.
Wei Ruo looked at her for a moment, then continued with a smile: "My things will not be given to others casually."
You can ask for anything you want. Zheta said. "I have a lot of requests." Wei Ruodao.
Then tell them all!
You look very determined.
Thats natural, otherwise why do you think I would come here in person?
Then my first request is: you go to my farm and grow potatoes. Wei Ruodao.
You want me to plant potatoes? Zheta looked surprised.
The attendant beside her said angrily: "This is our princess, how can you instruct her to do such a thing?"
"It's okay if you don't want to go. Just go back. You are the princess of the Jurchen tribe, and I am the princess of Daye. Your identity is not easy for me to use."
After Wei Ruo finished speaking, he turned around and went back to his house.
Wait, I agree to your request. Zheta shouted.
"You heard clearly, I want you to plant the seeds yourself, work in the fields yourself, and do everything yourself, instead of letting your guards do it for you."
"nature!"
"Okay." Wei Ruo said to Zhang Yi, "Guard Zhang, take Princess Zheta to Zhuangzi in the south."
The subordinates take orders.
Zhang Yi took the group away.
Xiumei has been watching these people go away with vigilance.
When these people walked away, Xiumei expressed her worries: "Miss, they came here for the potato seeds. What if they stole the seeds while they were farming?"
"Then let them steal it. I don't intend to keep the seeds in my hands forever. They will get it sooner or later." Wei Ruodao.
Wei Ruo never hides any seeds. All the seeds produced in her space will be disclosed to the public unconditionally later, and potatoes are no exception.
"Miss, are you going to let the Jurchens take away our seeds? They are the ones who captured Brother Xiaoyong and hurt the prince." Xiumei did not have a good impression of the Jurchens.
"The Yehe tribe is not the tribe that captured Brother Xiaoyong last time, and many of the Jurchen tribe are ordinary people. Just like Daye also has officers, people in power, and ordinary people. Although the Jurchen people are not Daye people, in my opinion, their There is no difference between ordinary people and our people.
Miss, your attitude towards the Jurchens seems to be different from that towards the Japanese pirates?
"It's indeed different. The Jurchen people originally live on that land, and a certain amount of friction in the border area can be regarded as a conflict between two neighbors. The Japanese pirates and our great cause do not interfere with each other, and they are not far apart. They came here specifically to plunder our resources and harm our people." Wei Ruo explained.
After a pause, Wei Ruo added: "If the one named Zheta is really what she said, she came here to make her people live and work in peace and contentment, I will be happy to share potato seeds and even all my high-yielding crops with her. I can give her even the seeds.
Wei Ruo continued: "But now I can't confirm whether she told me the truth, so I deliberately made such a harsh request, not only to test whether she is sincere, but also to test whether she has the ability."
Xiumei nodded: "So that's it, then I understand." (End of chapter)
