“Moreover, since this potato can grow on sandy soil, as long as we find a way to grow it, we might be able to grow it in Luoping County in the future.”
“I won’t take it for free. I’ll pay.” Ye Muyu took out some copper coins and bought the potatoes.
The old woman refused, but Ye Muyu persuaded her to accept it.
Ye Muyu packed all the potatoes into a bag. When they went back, she asked Han Zhuang to send them back and store them in the cellar. They could only be planted in November.
She waited for another hour.
The rain had lessened a little.
Ye Muyu looked at the sky and decided to leave. The rain was not heavy now, so she could leave with a bamboo hat.
If they delayed any longer, there might be another round of rain, and the sky would be dark.
After bidding farewell to the old woman’s family, Ye Muyu mounted her horse and left with the guards of the Marquis’ residence.
They walked down for about an hour.
They finally arrived outside the city gates.
“Madam, let’s take a break at the tea shop. The rain is getting heavier, but it will stop in a while,” the guard said.
Ye Muyu nodded. The rain came in waves.
She felt that her clothes were a little wet. She sat down and drank some hot tea to get rid of the cold.
The two of them walked down and tied the horses to the side of the tea shop.
Ye Muyu sat down at a random table and asked the shopkeeper to boil two bowls of ginger soup.
She bent down to wring the water off her skirt. From the corner of her eye, she saw a group of people walking in and sitting across from them.
She did not pay much attention to it at first, but she suddenly saw that the horseshoes that their horses had were different from the horses in the military camp.
To be precise, it was different from the complete version of the design that Ye Muyu had produced. On the contrary, it was very similar to the ones that had problems in the military camp. Moreover, these iron horseshoes were not new.
She suddenly had a guess in her mind. These people were not the citizens of Great Chu, but the nomads in the north as the soldiers in the military camp had said.
She remembered that Luoping Pass was to the west of Great Chu, and the people outside the pass were from the Luo Kingdom, who were good at riding and archery.
Then these people…
Ye Muyu held her breath. She felt that she might have discovered something extraordinary.
Currently, the Great Chu and Luo Kingdom did not have any trade relations. In fact, they had even fought a war ten years ago. Now, there were also some small conflicts. The appearance of people from the Luo Kingdom here was suspicious.
Ye Muyu straightened her back. Coincidentally, the ginger soup came over. She drank it slowly. From time to time, she would glance over and realize that the group of people was actually speaking fluent Great Chu language.
Even their clothes and habits did not show traces of being a foreign race.
However, she was certain that she was not mistaken. Then, there was only one reason. These Luo people had long infiltrated Great Chu for who knew how many years.
However, the guards of the Marquis’ residence actually did not notice it at all.
The rain continued for another 15 minutes.
As soon as the rain stopped, Ye Muyu called the guards of the manor and mounted the horse.
After discussing with the guards, Ye Muyu turned her horse around and ran back to the camp.
The two horses were extremely fast. The guard thought that Ye Muyu was afraid of rain again, so he did not think too much and increased his speed.
Ye Muyu could not help but feel glad that she had learned to ride a horse with the princess a month ago. Otherwise, she would not be able to do so now.
She went all the way to the military camp.
Ye Muyu was exhausted.
She got off the horse and said to the guard, “Go and find the princess first. I’m fine now.”
“Yes, Madam.” The guard did not hesitate. Whether it was to send Ye Muyu to the military camp or to the county, his mission had been completed. Naturally, he would not stay.
