Mother, I have returned to the throne.

Chapter 355 You don’t lose!

Frontier land.

After Song Yuan sent someone to deliver a message to his cheap father, he asked him to pay attention to safety and brought Luo Jia back to his own house.

What’s different from usual is that since Luo Jia came, everyone’s food has improved significantly.

For several days in a row, various ginseng stews were indispensable on the dinner table.

Song Yuan also has something to say about this.

If you are pregnant this year, you naturally need to recuperate.

Luo Jia was no stranger either. She ate whatever Song Yuan and the others ate. At the dinner table, she seemed to have integrated into the group.

It’s a pity that Luojia didn’t know that the so-called ginseng was equivalent to bait.

The big fish he caught was him!

Those medicinal soups stewed with ginseng do not only contain ginseng as a tonic. Every day they are specially prepared by me personally.

According to this year's statement, it is of great benefit to those who practice martial arts.

Logically speaking, it won’t be long before Luojia tastes the sweetness and comes to ask for it back.

But after waiting for several days, even though Song Yuan vented his energy every night, he felt that his nose was about to bleed!

Seeing that the half-month period mentioned by Luo Jia was only a few days away, Song Yuan simply gave up and prepared to take Luo Jia to Zhenbei City!

Song Yuan was looking for Luo Jia, wanting to explain the situation to her. When he arrived in the courtyard, he saw Luo Jia lying leisurely on a recliner, with a maid beside her picking out crystal clear grapes.

Stuff it into Luojia's mouth from time to time!

How could we be prisoners these days? It was clearly a vacation!

Song Yuan was so angry when he saw this, but he could only pretend to be kind: "Princess, you are in great health. Aren't you afraid of the cold lying in the yard in the middle of winter?"

"I think being colder can help people stay awake, and help me guard against a bad guy like you, don't you think?" Luo Jia slowly opened his eyes and glanced at Song Yuan.

What he said made Song Yuan grit his teeth.

"Be careful, it might get too cold, or you might freeze to death!" Song Yuan retorted angrily.

He looked at Luo Jia's face with gritted teeth!

Luo Jia, however, was shameless and returned his gaze without dodging. After a moment, he even raised an eyebrow and asked, "You think the time is almost up and you're ready to send me away, but you can't bear to let me go, so you want to remember my face?"

"Then don't tell me, I really want to keep you here!"

Song Yuan curled his lips and said, "I don't have many advantages, but I'm too sentimental. Even if I raise a beast, I'd feel a little distressed every now and then. What's more, the princess is such a delicate beauty."

Can you talk?

Comparing me to an animal?

Hearing Song Yuan's indirect criticism, Luo Jia felt angry.

Does this guy treat himself as a pet?

However, after spending such a long time together, Luo Jia had already gotten used to Song Yuan's temper, and could tell at a glance that the other party was clearly trying to anger her on purpose!

If you lose your composure at this time, you lose!

In order to prove himself, Luo Jia took a deep breath and quickly suppressed the anger in his heart.

"Your Highness, seeing you suddenly reminds me of one of my favorite things to do!" Luo Jia adjusted his mood and looked at Song Yuan with eager eyes.

"My dear princess, you are leaving soon. I have no control over what you like to do. My only hope is that you will try to cause me less trouble in the future. Just don't fall in love with me and don't bother me. I will burn incense for you every day!" Song Yuan said sarcastically.

Luo Jia had already stood up and looked at Song Yuan with burning eyes.

"In my eyes, you are just like a wild wolf, and my favorite thing is to tame wild wolves!"

"I remember when I was very young, my father once told me that wild wolves are the most amazing species on the grasslands. The way to deal with them is not to kill them, but to find the most dazzling leader among the group!"

"As long as you can tame the leader, the entire team will belong to you. Then you'll see the beast that bared its teeth at you before, lying down in front of you with exceptional meekness. That moment will be the most satisfying in life!"

"Then I guess, Princess, you probably haven't succeeded before?" Song Yuan looked back without fear.

"Then you are wrong. I have not only tamed a wolf, but I have tamed many!"

Luo Jia smiled and said, "In my house, there's a Snow Wolf King. He led his pack and killed my horse! The moment I saw the horse carcasses scattered all over the ground, I secretly vowed to tame him, just as my father had commanded!"

"Later, I spent a year finally catching it, and another two years to finally make this beast bow down to me!"

"Now, he is the most loyal guard in my courtyard. He is much more reliable than anyone else!"

"I have to say, the princess is quite patient. If it were me, I definitely wouldn't be able to afford to waste so much time!"

Song Yuan sneered: "When I see a wolf pack that doesn't obey me, my only choice is to beat them into submission! Either obey or die, this is my choice!"

"you……"

Luo Jia's breathing quickened slightly, and she glared at Song Yuan unhappily.

This guy is really good at talking!

In this way, when Song Yuan was in the imperial city, he was called a waste by everyone.

Just based on his eloquence, are all the people in the Qin Dynasty fools?

This is clearly a wolf king. Once he sets his sights on someone, it is equivalent to falling into hell!

"By the way, Reba, you've been here for so many days. How do you feel about me treating you?"

"It's okay!" Facing Song Yuan's sudden topic, Luo Jia nodded: "I originally thought... Anyway, it will be much better than I thought before!"

In the past two days, apart from occasionally teasing Luojia and taking advantage of her verbally, Song Yuan did not restrict Luojia's freedom.

As for the words he said, none of them came true.

As for food and drink, everything they asked for was provided.

For Luojia, these two days were more of a time of relaxation and enjoyment than a journey deep into the enemy camp!

"You make me feel really cold!"

But even with such an evaluation, Song Yuan was still a little dissatisfied: "If it weren't for you, would I be willing to take out the ginseng I usually treasure? Look at how you eat now, your face is rosy and rosy, can't you think of my kindness?"

"What do you want to do now?" Over such a long time, Luo Jia has figured out the experience that as long as Song Yuan talks too much, he must have other requests!

"These ginsengs are worth a fortune in the Qin Empire, and are no less valuable than the wine you drink. Do you understand what I mean?"

"If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have a fart, hurry up!"

"Okay, okay, okay, if you say that, then I won't be polite. You've eaten so much of my food, and those ginsengs are hundreds of years old. It's hard for me to collect them in such a short time. You're about to go home, so I can't pay you back, right?"

The stall owner Song Yuan said confidently, "Shouldn't we settle the bill? Can you pay me the food bill?"

"you……"

Luojia was so angry that his nose was crooked. Wasn’t it him who asked for those ginseng?

You've already brought the food to the table, and I just took a couple of chops, and you're asking me for money?

Are you still human?

"Don't stare at me. If you don't believe me, go ask me. If you hadn't come, would I have been willing to eat those few ginsengs?"

Facing Luo Jia's furious expression, Song Yuan pretended to be aggrieved: "Many of those were collected by me at great expense in the Imperial City. I was thinking that when I had more wives, I would take them out to nourish myself!"

"Do you think you're only eating ginseng? You're eating the happiness of the rest of my life! Is it too much to ask for some food money from you?"

Song Yuan had only one purpose in his words and deeds. He emphasized ginseng many times just to lead the topic to this point!

After such a long delay, Song Yuan no longer had much hope in his heart.

I just thought that before leaving, I should at least give it a try.

If it really doesn't work, then try another approach and just give the so-called ginseng as a gift to Luojia to send him off!

Although there is a high probability that Luo Jia will see the clues, there is at least a chance!

Fortunately, just as Song Yuan frowned, Luo Jia finally responded.

"Then tell me, I ate so much ginseng from you, how much is the food cost?"

"If you say that, I'll have to count on my fingers and tell you!"

Song Yuan suddenly became active: "Those ginsengs are all unique. Those that are over a hundred years old are placed in the imperial city. Any one of them is worth a fortune!"

"However, you didn't eat all that much ginseng by yourself, so I won't cheat you. Even if you ate half a ginseng plant over the past few days!"

"According to the price we agreed on before, five thousand taels of gold will be enough. Of course, you can also exchange it for a hundred war horses. I'm a very generous person!"

Do you still want to lose face?

Half a ginseng in exchange for a hundred war horses. It seems you are still eyeing my wealth!

For a moment, Luo Jia subconsciously thought that Song Yuan said so much and went around in such a big circle just to take his warhorse!

She pouted and snorted coldly.

"I advise you to give up on this idea. To hell with the food money!"

"Forget gold, war horses, I won't even leave you a single hair!"

"If that's what you mean...without gold and warhorses, I'll have to find other ways to repay you!"

Seeing Luo Jia's firm attitude, Song Yuan sneered.

The moment he finished speaking, he raised his hand and was about to touch Luo Jia's cheek!

Faced with such an action, Luo Jia did not dodge or evade, but just looked straight at Song Yuan!

After spending such a long time together, Luo Jia has already figured it out. Even though this guy talks a lot, he definitely wouldn't dare to take advantage of her!

But seeing Song Yuan getting closer and closer, Luo Jia couldn't help but panic.

Does he think that by saying goodbye right away he can really do whatever he wants?

Fortunately, just when Luojia wanted to resist, Song Yuanna suddenly changed direction when she was about to touch Luojia's cheek.

When Luojia reacted, she saw that Song Yuan had already taken off a hairpin from Luojia's head!

"Give it back to me..." Noticing Song Yuan's little action, Luo Jia immediately reached out to ask for it.

What he didn't expect was that Song Yuan returned the hairpin without saying a word.

This back and forth immediately confused Luo Jia.

What do you mean?

Tease me?

"Didn't you just say that not even a hair would be left? I'm just telling you that sometimes you shouldn't be too stubborn!" Song Yuan sneered and revealed his purpose.

Luo Jia was slightly stunned, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

Looking at Song Yuan again, he just felt that this guy was a bit childish!

However, since the other party wants to exchange war horses, it is an opportunity for me.

Luo Jia thought for a moment, then suddenly changed his tone, "If you want war horses, it's not impossible. When we exchange the three border cities, how about we exchange our captives?"

"If I have more prisoners by then, I'll just pretend nothing happened. However, if you have more prisoners, I'll exchange one warhorse for each one. That way, you won't be at a disadvantage, right?"

The barbarians had landed on the beach before and captured a lot of prisoners, most of whom had been sent across the Peacock River.

Song Yuan had fought with the barbarians many times before and captured many of them alive.

If both sides can really exchange prisoners, it will enhance the reputation of both sides!

As soon as these words came out, Song Yuan's brows relaxed. Wasn't his next step to deal with General Wei?

If we rescue these people from the barbarians, wouldn't we then gain a new group of loyal subjects?

"Prisoners can be exchanged, but exchanging one warhorse for one person is a bit too much of a loss. Two warhorses for one person. If you agree, I promise to bring the person over!"

Song Yuan took advantage of the situation and made a direct suggestion.

Luo Jia curled her lips and refused without a second thought: "Impossible, I advise you not to be too greedy!"

"Don't be impatient, listen to what I have to say first!"

Song Yuan sneered and then began to explain: "You also know the situations when I fought with you barbarians before. In most cases, I was a little out of control!"

"Plus, after I captured them, I used them as hard labor. After so much time has passed, I don't think many of them can handle it!"

"If you can agree to my request, and you've seen the effects of the ginseng before, I can give you two more. I have a special collection of thousand-year-old ginseng, and the price is incomparable to that of the hundred-year-old ginseng!"

"You can easily keep them alive with such a precious medicine. If you calculate carefully, you won't lose..."
