Qin Dynasty: Becoming a peerless master through the Golden Light Mantra
Chapter 12 Jing Ni: What are they trying to do?
A moment later, Honglian focused her attention back on the scenery outside the carriage.
Just then, she saw several men weeding in the field. Curious, she looked at Han Che and asked, "Eleventh Brother, what are those people doing?"
Upon hearing this, Han Che turned his gaze to the men.
Watching the men collect and tie up the weeds they had pulled, Han Che looked away and said, "They are weeding the fields."
"Weeding the fields?"
Honglian blinked, looking very curious.
"Is weeding fun?"
After speaking, Honglian continued to focus her gaze on the men.
Watching their skillful movements, Honglian suddenly wanted to try it herself.
Hearing Honglian's question, Han Che felt both amused and exasperated.
Weeding is not a recreational activity.
Then he explained to Honglian, "Honglian, weeding is to help the crops in the field grow better."
If these weeds are not removed, they will steal nutrients from the soil, reducing crop yields.
If crop yields decrease, not only will the people's harvest be reduced, but the entire country of South Korea will be affected.
If we can't get food from other places, everyone will go hungry.
Honglian was deeply shocked by what she heard.
Her eyes widened, and she asked incredulously, "Is weeding really that important?"
Han Che nodded vigorously: "Yes, weeding is very important. And it's not just about weeding; after weeding, we also need to fertilize the fields."
With sufficient fertility, the fields can produce more grain for our consumption.
Honglian nodded.
Then, she spoke up and expressed her thoughts.
"Eleventh Brother, I want to go see how they weed."
"If Honglian wants to see it, that's perfectly fine."
Han Che replied with a smile.
Immediately afterward, Han Che ordered, "Erhu, stop!"
Upon receiving the order, Han Hu hurriedly relayed Han Che's command: "Stop!"
Jingni, who was following far behind, looked at Han Che and Honglian getting off the carriage, and was very puzzled.
Why did they suddenly stop here?
Under Jingni's watchful gaze, Han Che and Honglian walked towards the field beside them.
"Honglian, don't trample the crops in the field."
As they were about to enter the field, Han Che spoke up to remind them.
Upon hearing this, Honglian immediately stopped in her tracks.
Then she noticed that there were "paths" in the field that people could walk on.
Those who were weeding were also walking on these "paths".
Immediately afterwards, Honglian patted her chest and said to Han Che, "I understand, Eleventh Brother."
At this moment, those who were weeding noticed Han Che and Hong Lian.
Seeing that the two men were dressed in fine clothes and followed by armored soldiers, he felt very apprehensive.
For a moment, they were all stunned and stood there, not knowing what to do.
Noticing all this, Han Che shouted, "Fellow villagers, we didn't mean to disturb you. Just continue doing what you were doing and don't worry about us."
Even so, the villagers still felt uncertain.
"Eleventh Brother, why don't they listen to you?"
Honglian frowned slightly as she watched this scene.
Han Che explained, "Honglian, it's not that they don't want to listen to me, it's that they're too afraid of us."
After all, our group looks quite dangerous.
Danger?
Upon hearing this word, Honglian subconsciously looked at the armored soldiers behind the two.
Seeing the heavily armored soldiers with their fierce aura, she immediately realized what was going on and said fiercely to Han Che, "This is all your fault, Eleventh Brother. It was clearly just the two of us who came out to have fun, but you brought so many soldiers with you."
Han Che explained helplessly, "Honglian, I'm doing this for our safety."
Especially your safety. You are the king's most beloved person, and countless people in the world are watching you.
If I fail to protect you, my father will blame me.
After hearing Han Che's explanation, Honglian immediately realized that she had misunderstood Han Che and hurriedly apologized, "Eleventh Brother, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you just now."
Seeing Honglian's sincere attitude, Han Che smiled and said, "Honglian, it's good that you understand. I forgive you."
Honglian smiled and grabbed Han Che's arm with both hands, saying coquettishly, "I knew Eleventh Brother was the best."
Just then, someone mustered up their courage and walked towards Han Che and Hong Lian.
Upon arriving before Han Che and Hong Lian, the man bowed to Han Che and said, "May I ask, esteemed sir, what brings you here? Our taxes are always paid on time and in full; we have never shortchanged the government by a single penny."
Han Che had no choice but to explain, "As I just said, we didn't mean to bother you. My younger sister just wanted to see the scenery in the fields, so I brought her here."
"Just do whatever you need to do from now on, and pretend we don't exist."
These powerful and wealthy people are actually interested in farming?
Han Che's words were clearly beyond this person's comprehension, and he remained stunned for a long time before coming back to his senses.
"Cough cough—!"
Seeing this, Han Che coughed twice to bring him back to his senses.
Then he continued, "Fellow villager, we really didn't mean anything by it. You should go back now."
"Then I shall take my leave."
Upon hearing this, the villager immediately bowed and withdrew.
After the fellow villager left, Han Che said to Honglian, "Honglian, let's not stay here any longer."
"They feel uncomfortable working here because of us."
"All right."
Honglian nodded in agreement with Han Che's suggestion.
Just now, she discovered that weeding wasn't fun at all.
The man was filthy.
If she goes into the fields, her clothes will definitely get very dirty.
After letting Honglian return to the carriage, Han Che glanced at the woods not far away.
That was the direction they came from.
He sensed that someone was watching them.
Was it for me, or for Honglian?
"Eleventh Brother, what are you looking at?"
At this moment, Honglian, who had already returned to the carriage, saw that Han Che had not made any move for a long time, so she poked her little head out of the carriage and asked.
Upon hearing this, Han Che looked away and reassured Honglian, "It's alright."
Han Che then boarded the carriage as well.
Before entering the carriage, Han Che glanced at Han Hu beside him and signaled to Han Hu to be on high alert.
Upon receiving the signal, Han Hu nodded vigorously to Han Che.
Inside the carriage, Honglian, having pulled her head back, looked at the scenery outside and suddenly felt very bored.
Although the scenery in the countryside was quite nice, after looking at it for a while, she still felt that the city was better.
The city has a more vibrant, lively atmosphere.
The people outside the city were terrified when they saw them.
Seeing that Han Che had returned to the carriage, Honglian said, "Eleventh Brother, let's go back. It's no fun outside the city."
