Chapter 1334: Lazy Master (2)
"On the first day of February, a female cat from Liu Ergou's house in the west of the city gave birth to two kittens, one pure white and one black and white. The evildoer was the black and white cat raised by the second wife next door..."
"On the first day of February, the shopkeeper Wang in the east of the city saw the little daughter of Wang Po's family and wanted to take her as a concubine. However, his wife found out and broke her leg. She is currently recuperating at home."
"On the first day of February, a hen from Li Po's house in the south of the city flew to the next yard and was secretly caught and eaten by Zhao Po's grandson. The grandson threw the feathers to another neighbor of Li Po's, Ma's house. Li Po found the feathers at Ma's house and insisted that Ma's family compensate her for the hen."
"On the first day of February, ..."
While listening to these trivial matters, Ji Xiaomu opened Bai Yichen's treasure cabinet, found a box of melon seeds, and ate them while listening to the man's report.
"On the first day of February, the Gao family in the main city who supported the prime minister were killed by the prime minister's second son Chen Ziliang, who wanted to make an example of him. After the incident, Chen Ziliang was dragged to the doorstep of the prime minister's house and his legs were broken by the prime minister."
Ji Xiaowu sat up in surprise.
"The second son of the Prime Minister?"
"Is this an internal fight?"
"On the first day of February, the second prince's favorite concubine was killed. Two people were killed. The second prince suspected that Madam Yun was responsible. Another concubine's maid came out to confess. The maid was Ruxue who secretly assisted Madam Yun and covered up the crime for Madam Yun."
"Wow, playing spy?!" Ji Xiaomu's eyes lit up.
"On the first day of February, the Fourth Prince wanted to implement a new policy, but was opposed by his generals. All soldiers were required to reduce their rations, in an attempt to emulate Heyang City."
"It's not a problem for the Fourth Prince to learn how to grow crops, but the yield of their seeds is not high. No matter how long he plants, he will never be able to successfully emulate Heyang City." Ji Xiaowu curled the corners of her mouth.
Are you kidding? Apart from sweet potatoes and potatoes, what other grains can achieve such a yield? It is impossible to rely on miscellaneous grains.
If it were not for the discovery of sweet potatoes and potatoes, Ji Xiaomu would not have dared to be so willful.
"Is this the information he has to deal with every day?" asked Ji Xiaomu after the secret guard finished reading.
"Yes." The secret guard replied, "Today's news is relatively small. Sometimes when there is more, the master will take it himself and there is no need to read it."
"Madam, the calculation is done!" The other side also calculated yesterday's income and brought it over for Ji Xiaomu to review.
Ji Xiaowu looked at the account book, then looked at the two people in front of her. "Does Mr. Bai know of your existence?"
The two looked at each other and shook their heads.
"...How long have you been with him?" Ji Xiaomu looked at the account book in her hand. It took Bai Yichen a lot of effort to find these two people.
"We have always been by the master's side." The two replied. "As shadow guards, we were chosen when the master was born and have always been by his side."
The Bai family takes in some orphans for training every year. They have lived in the Shadow Guard Camp since childhood. The head of the family selects them to be the master's shadow guards, and they grow up with the master.
Before I knew it, I had been following my master for more than 20 years.
"So long? That means at least twenty years?" Mother Ji was stunned. She didn't expect that Bai Yichen had secret guards protecting him since he was born?
"Yes." The two nodded.
While protecting the master, you also have to train. Only if you are strong enough can you stay by the master's side, otherwise you will be replaced.
"Do you have names?" asked Ji Xiaomu curiously.
