Chapter 214: Urgent Call
"But what's going on in the capital?"
The waiter shook his head expressionlessly, "I don't have anything to say about the slave and maid, please let Prince Zhao leave immediately and return to Yindu with the slave and maid." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½foβ
"But here......" Ming Zhao looked at the people with some embarrassment, he also wanted to see the disaster relief food fall into the hands of the people, with him, at least these local officials did not dare to withhold the relief food of the people.
"Please Prince Zhao set off immediately!"
The tough attitude of the chamberlain and the heavily armed Imperial Forest Army behind him made Feng Shanyue feel that this matter was not simple. Shang Jun obviously sent Ming Zhao to deal with the locust plague, why didn't he let him go back to Yindu after the control was completed?
She walked up to Ming Zhao and whispered, "Do you know this chamberlain? Could it be that someone is pretending to deceive you?"
Ming Zhao shook his head, "This Huang Nei is my father's favorite edict envoy, and I have seen him several times in the palace. β
That is to say, it is indeed Shang Jun who summoned Ming Zhao, so what is the purpose of it? Unfortunately, this chamberlain looks stinky and hard, and he looks like he is not a good talker, otherwise he would have been able to inquire about some news.
Ming Zhao said to Huang Nei very politely, "Please wait a while, wait a while, and I will go and explain a few words to the official of the city before leaving." β
Huang Nei nodded with a straight face, "Please Prince Zhao as soon as possible, your lord is in a hurry to see you!"
"Good!"
Ming Zhao found Lord Dai, explained to him the follow-up matters of disaster relief, and asked Wen Feichen and Feng Shanyue to help keep an eye on this matter, and then followed Huang Neizhi out of Yucheng.
Wen Feichen looked worriedly at the back of the group leaving, "Mingzhao will be fine, right?"
"I think there is more luck than lucky!" Feng Shanyue shook her head, "No, we have to send someone to Yindu immediately to inquire about the news." β
At this time, Boss Lu hurriedly came over and handed Feng Shanyue a small bamboo tube, "This is a secret letter from Yin Du!"
Feng Shanyue immediately took it and opened it, and after reading it, her whole heart sank, and her face was very ugly.
"What's wrong?"
Feng Shanyue handed the silk letter in her hand to Wen Feichen, Wen Feichen took it and looked at it, and immediately scolded angrily, "What a reason!
"Senior brother, what's the use of scolding these now? The key is that we have to quickly find a way to help Senior Brother Ming. β
"Yes, yes, yes! Ming Zhao is counting on us now, we can't panic!" Having said that, his hand holding the silk letter could not stop trembling, and it could be seen that he was particularly flustered.
Lord Dai was also worried about Ming Zhao's situation, "Prince Zhao is here, there won't be any trouble, right?"
"It's hard to say, we have to think it through. Feng Shanyue looked at Lord Dai, "My lord, I'll leave it to you here." You will distribute relief food according to Ming Zhao's requirements, and don't worry about the rest for the time being, as long as you ensure that Yudi is not chaotic. β
"Okay, no problem. "When the locusts were fought before, not a single relief grain allocated by the imperial court was not touched, Ming Zhao and he carefully counted the disaster situation in Yudi, and calculated that every family could receive a lot of relief food, and the people would only be grateful, so how could they make trouble? This may be the most stress-free disaster he has encountered in many years as an official, all thanks to Ming Zhao and his friends.
When he returned to the mansion, Zisheng was about to go out, and when he saw them coming back, he was very surprised, "Aren't you distributing relief food?
Feng Shanyue rolled her eyes, what the hell is this guy here for? In addition to going to the countryside with everyone once, and then hiding in the mansion and refusing to go out, at this time I finally plan to go out, but I actually want to see the excitement?
Wen Feichen was also very dissatisfied, neither of them spoke, and went straight to the mansion.
Zisheng didn't get angry because of the attitude of the two, he followed behind curiously, "What about my second brother? Is he still stupidly staying there to distribute food to the people? In fact, this kind of thing is left to the people below, and he doesn't have to go in person at all." is also a disaster treatment, he runs to the fields all day long, but the prince's brother eats, drinks and has fun in the mansion, and there are beauties to accompany him, do you think he is stupid?"
Butterfly Dance followed behind, I really couldn't listen to it anymore, "Prince Sheng, Prince Zhao is sympathetic to the people's feelings, the slave maid thinks there is nothing bad, and the people are very grateful to him!"
"Hmph, what's the use of the people being grateful?" Zisheng pointed in the direction of Yindu, "It's far away there, and the things here have already changed when they get there." The second brother has just returned to the palace, and if he doesn't understand these doorways, he will definitely suffer. β
When Feng Shanyue heard this, she immediately turned to look at him, "Do you know something?"
"I ......" Zisheng laughed dryly, "I just said casually, I don't go out all day, what can I know?"
"No, what you said just now clearly meant something, did you already know that something would happen to Mingzhao?"
Zisheng was frightened by her aggressive tone and took two steps back, "Don't ask me! It's not like I'm going to dig a pit for him to jump!"
"What the hell is going on?"
This time, three people stared at him, and Zisheng raised his hands in embarrassment, "Actually, I don't know the specific thing." However, the last time the third brother came from Jidi and looked around, I knew that he had bad intentions. In addition, the prince's brother is not effective in managing the disaster in Jidi, with my understanding of him, he will definitely take the lead and sue the second brother in front of his father. I just don't know what charge he will use......"
"Use the public for personal gain, and use the treasury for personal gain!"
Zisheng was surprised at first, and then nodded, as if he understood very clearly, "I know, it's all you who caused trouble to the second brother!"
"What did Iβwhat did I do?"
"Raise chickens and ducks!"
"What's wrong with that?"
"The mistake is that you shouldn't exchange the grain pulled out of the official warehouse for locusts and raise chickens and ducks!"
"I bought all this grain from Boss Lu, and it was just temporarily stored in the official warehouse. β
"Father doesn't care about this, I guess the prince's brother is not effective in curing the disaster, so he wants to sue the second brother first. Father originally had expectations for the second brother, but seeing that he dared to use the official warehouse to fill his pockets, he would definitely not let him go. At that time, the prince's brother will be able to use his father's hand to get rid of one of his biggest rivals. β
Feng Shanyue looked at Zi Sheng suspiciously, "You already knew that the prince would make a stumbling block for Senior Brother Ming, so he hid in the mansion and refused to go out, for fear of getting angry?"
"I ...... I ......"
"Forget it, I don't want to listen to your quibbles. If you want to go to see the excitement of disaster relief, you can also retreat back to your room. I still have to discuss important matters with Senior Brother Wen, so I won't accompany you. Butterfly dance, guard at the door, no one is allowed to come in!" She specially accentuated the pronunciation of the word "anyone", which was naturally said to Zisheng.
Zisheng was robbed by her and couldn't speak, watching her and Wen Feichen enter the house, while Diewu was loyally guarding the door, it seemed that she really didn't plan to let him in. He thought for a moment, and went back to his house dejectedly.
"Senior Brother Wen, it seems that our plan has succeeded!"
Wen Feichen also tried his best to suppress the feeling of excitement, "On the way back just now, I almost couldn't hold back the stuffing, but fortunately, Prince Sheng came to stir it up." β
Feng Shanyue smiled, "Next, it's up to us!"
