The Princess of Northern Land

Chapter 480 King Ling’s Wife (1)

As Chu Suifeng's adviser, Situ Gong was undoubtedly a busy man, but when he should have been busy, he went to the fields to chat with an old farmer, and no one would believe him.

The old man looked at him deeply.

Under his thoughtful gaze, Situ Gong always responded with a smile.

"Mr. Situ is a busy man. It's an honor for me to take the time to chat with him." After a long time, the old man nodded slightly.

"I don't dare." Situ Gong responded politely, "Food is the basis of survival in the North. Speaking of being busy, the old man is not idle."

Mr. Lin only smiled slightly at his compliment and did not remain polite.

Not far from the vegetable fields, there are houses for workers to rest. The old man also asked for a house here as a resting place.

The room is not big, and the inside is very simple. There is a small bed with a clean and neat quilt on it, a small table, and some tea sets on the table.

The old man walked to the table and personally picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Situ Gong and himself. "Autumn is about to come, and the weather is still relatively hot. This is a brewed herbal tea. Sir, I will just drink it."

"Thank you." Situ Gong didn't mind it, took the cup and took a sip. Herbal tea is not a cold drink, but a herbal tea that actually contains medicinal materials. It has the taste of medicinal materials and is slightly sweet. As a northerner, Situ Gong didn't like the taste very much, "It's a bit sweet."

"I forgot that sir is from the north." The old man gave him an apologetic look.

"Although I don't like it too much, in this hot weather, it's good to drink some occasionally." Situ Gong said with a smile.

"Sir, if you have anything to say, you can just say it. There are only two of us in the room." Mr. Lin got straight to the point and did not let Situ Gong waste any time.

"The old man is indeed no ordinary person." Situ Gong smiled and said, "I came here today because of the prince and Miss Lin."

His attitude became serious.

"That kid Ziyin has his own opinion." The old man directly closed the topic and didn't want to continue talking.

"I know it's a bit abrupt to come here today." A wry smile appeared on Situ Gong's face, "Logically speaking, it is not the turn of people like us to discuss the important matter of master's marriage. But it is related to the survival of the people in the North, and Situ does not dare to hesitate and neglect it."

"Sir, it's serious. She is just a little girl. How can she bear such a big responsibility for the survival of the people in the world?" The old man was a little unhappy and his tone became a little cold.

Situ Gong was a little embarrassed, but he would not back down, "Miss Lin is not an ordinary girl. Have you ever thought about it, sir? In the near future, maybe the court will know Miss Lin's name and everything she has done. If nothing else, The rice, corn, and wheat alone are enough to make Miss Lin the focus of the court's attention."

The old man was silent.

"Others may not understand what I mean, but I believe that with the wisdom of the old man, they should be able to figure out what I want to express." Situ Gong tried his best to persuade. He was Chu Suifeng's adviser, so he naturally knew how to persuade others. "The more abilities a person has, the more responsibilities they will bear. With Miss Lin's current abilities, being the mistress of Prince Ling's Mansion is definitely the best choice. The imperial court is now in a state of decay, and the current one will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. Even the princes who own fiefdoms have their own agendas..."

"Sir, why do you need to tell an old farmer like me about the important affairs of the world?" The old man interrupted him directly.

"Because Miss Lin is not an ordinary person, and the old man is not an ordinary person. Even if the old man wants to stay out of the matter, there are some things that you can't avoid if you want to. If the person in the court decrees that Miss Lin enter the palace, or the head of the Lin family Come here to lobby for marriage, what will the old man do then? Or, if the princes from the fiefdoms come to ask for marriage, maybe the old man can refuse them, but has the old man thought about how long the Lin family can resist if the troubles keep coming? And the people in the North Country The Tatars have always had eyes and ears in Fengcheng. If they knew that Miss Lin had the ability to improve their lives, how could they take it easy?" Situ Situ Gong's words became sharper and sharper, leaving the old man almost helpless.
