What happened after Liang Youcai entered the Chengen Mansion, outsiders don't know, but as soon as Zhou Yuran separated from An Guogong, he found a little white face who was more than ten years younger than her, but this matter quickly spread to everyone.

In the midst of this uproar, Xiao Jingbei waited for the opportunity that Feng Zhige had already reminded him of.

This morning has not yet begun, there are 800 miles of urgent letters all the way into the palace, but it is the Dawu Dynasty grain production of the highest grain production in the south of the Yangtze River and the northeast, this year there is a great drought, from the beginning of spring to the end of April now, have not seen a drop of rain, spring ploughing is therefore delayed, you can imagine, when the autumn harvest comes, what kind of miserable situation will be.

This news is undoubtedly earth-shattering for the whole court.

The grain reserves of the Dawu Dynasty are not much, and most of them are in the granaries of various places, if there is really no harvest in the northeast and other places in the south of the Yangtze River, then they can only open warehouses to release grain, but whether the grain is enough for disaster relief, no one can say clearly.

When the news reached Zhao Tiannan, he was sitting at a long table with breakfast, and after reading the letter, he almost fainted in front of him.

There was a severe drought in the northeast and other places in the south of the Yangtze River, and the news should have been transmitted to the capital long ago, but unfortunately, a natural disaster was encountered two months before the passage of the message, and the letter was stopped in the middle of the road.

If it weren't for the two-month delay, maybe there would have been time to think of a way.

But now it's almost May......

Zhao Tiannan only repeated two words back and forth in his heart: It's late, it's late.

Although local officials will presumably use some measures to ensure spring plowing as much as possible, how much grain can be saved?

The people take food as their sky, and once they can't get enough food from the land to make a living, Zhao Tiannan doesn't have to think about it.

In the previous dynasty of that year, wasn't it because the emperor was unreasonable, and the people were so exploited that they couldn't even eat, which triggered uprisings in many places?

Although the reasons are different, the essence is the same.

Zhao Tiannan came from such a source back then. Stepping down the country of the Great Wu Dynasty, he naturally understood.

Nearly thirty years after the founding of the Dawu Dynasty, Zhao Tiannan also sat on the dragon chair for nearly thirty years, this is the first time. He had a sense of crisis that the building was about to collapse.

Close his eyes, and wait for the sudden dizziness to subside, and then Zhao Tiannan will go to the court.

The morning dynasty lasted for a long time, until after noon, the ministers of the previous court left the palace in twos and threes with bitter faces.

There was a severe drought in the northeast of the Yangtze River. It's a great crisis for anyone.

The Manchu Dynasty discussed for a morning, and finally only determined a plan, no matter how much the officials of the two places can save, the impact of this drought on the autumn harvest is beyond doubt, and now there are still three or four months until the autumn harvest, in order to be caught off guard at that time, now at least send people to the granaries in various places to check the grain situation in advance.

After this decision was made, no one noticed the uneasy expressions on the faces of a few officials in the hall.

Therefore, the matter is extremely important. The next day, several people were handpicked by Zhao Tiannan to go to the granaries in various places to check the situation.

On the same day, as soon as Xiao Jingbei returned to the Anguo Mansion, he rushed directly to Feng Zhige's side, "What you said last time was not peaceful, but now it has arrived, right?" ”

The severe drought in the two grain-producing areas directly affects the autumn harvest, and this matter can naturally be regarded as unpeaceful.

Feng Zhige nodded first after hearing this, and then shook his head again, "Yes." Not exactly. ”

Xiao Jingbei looked puzzled when he heard this.

He didn't know why Feng Zhige knew the news of the drought in Jiangnan so long before the emperor, but he didn't care about this, he just didn't understand, could it. Is there more shocking news than the drought in the south and northeast of the Yangtze River that has not reached the capital?

Feng Zhige looked up at Xiao Jingbei.

She originally planned not to tell anyone about this matter until everyone knew about it, but looking at Xiao Jingbei, she suddenly thought of Xiao Jingbei's sentence last time, "I am your husband, you can try to believe me".

And then, for the first time. She really had an urge to try to believe in the person in front of her who had not gone through the trials of time with her.

Thinking of Xiao Jingbei's hatred for Zhao Tiannan because of Xiao Li's incident, Feng Zhige thought for a moment, but decided not to hide it from Xiao Jingbei.

"The drought in the south and northeast of the Yangtze River is just the first step." Feng Zhige said this, and there was a bit of sharpness in his eyes, "Now there is a situation where the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government have gone to the granaries in various places to check the official grain, if these people are lucky not to die outside, they will only bring back one news, and the grain in the granaries in various places is no longer one in ten." ”

Feng Zhige's words were too terrifying, not only revealing the true situation of the granary, but also revealing incomparably dangerous, even if Xiao Jingbei had always been moody, he was shocked at this time.

"You mean ......"

Feng Zhige nodded, "You're right, the officials in the court colluded up and down to privately take the official grain in the granary and sell it." This situation has existed for many years, reselling official grain without permission, and then lying about the amount of grain handed over at the time of the autumn harvest to fill the vacancy, as long as no one is ordered by the emperor to go down to investigate, even such a major event is enough to hide it seamlessly. ”

This year's drought in the two places was really an accident.

This is true both for those bold officials and for the old man Han who has always had insight into this qiē.

"If it weren't for this year's drought, how would anyone have thought of checking the situation in the granaries of various places?" Feng Zhige said with a smile.

When Xiao Jingbei heard this, he was shocked.

He didn't know why Feng Zhige had a father-daughter relationship with Old Man Han, but since Feng Zhige knew this, he must have known Old Man Han for a long time.

For so many years, what those moths did was seen by Old Man Han, but he didn't do anything......

When Xiao Jingbei lost his mind, Feng Zhige pulled his red lips slightly, and said with some sarcasm: "Zhao Tiannan thinks that he has been wise and martial since he ascended the throne, and he has governed the Dawu Dynasty to ensure the peace of the country and the people. I want to see how he can protect this country that he values more than his life. ”

Xiao Jingbei had long heard Feng Zhige call the name of the current emperor, and it was no surprise at this time.

What made him care was the meaning of Feng Zhi's words.

Could it be that this incident has been so strict that it is enough to hurt the foundation of the Dawu Dynasty?

If he is a compassionate person, he is afraid that he has already begun to be compassionate to others, and then he is ready to inform the court of this matter as soon as possible. But the softness in Xiao Jingbei's heart has long been worn out in these years of running, so naturally he doesn't have such great feelings to consider the people of the world.

He was thinking, why did Feng Zhi's song reveal a sense of being extremely familiar with the current emperor?

But. How is this possible, Feng Zhige grew up in Huzhou since he was a child, and it was only a year since he entered Beijing, and the only time he entered the palace in this year was when he was called into the palace by the Queen Mother.

In such a situation. What kind of intersection can she have with the current emperor? Not to mention having a grudge against it.

At this moment, in Xiao Jingbei's heart, Feng Zhige's body was like being covered with many layers of mysterious veils, which made him feel that he couldn't see the person in front of him clearly.

is very familiar with a person who should not have intersected with him, and became the daughter of the old man Han without having contact with the Han family, and is even more well-informed in the palace, and even faintly has the ability to influence the situation in the DPRK and China.

Xiao Jingbei has never been so confused as he was at this time.

"Stop singing, who the hell are you......"

He muttered.

Feng Zhige was slightly stunned when he heard this.

She also thought about how Xiao Jingbei would react after hearing this, but she didn't expect his attention. But it's on yourself.

"You told me to stop singing, and you asked me who I am?"

When he said this, Feng Zhige raised his lips slightly.

……

In the following period, from the ministers of the capital to the ordinary people, some people seemed to be impetuous.

Although the drought in the northeast of the Yangtze River and other places seems to be thousands of miles away, for the people in the capital, it is undoubtedly also related to vital interests, and of course it will make people's feelings fluctuate.

But. These two places are not close to the capital, and it will take more than half a month for the officials sent to check the situation of the granary to go back and forth, no matter how anxious they are, everyone can only force themselves to hold on.

In such a situation. The in the Cheng'en Mansion was obviously not enough to attract people's attention.

And the news that An Guogong Xiao Li suddenly woke up, with the shock brought by the drought to people, it was not so shocking.

An Guogong, who had been in a coma for more than ten years, woke up.

It didn't take long for Zhao Tiannan to know the news, and it was Xiao Jingbei who personally entered the palace to inform him.

Zhao Tiannan was silent for a short time after hearing this.

At this time, Xiao Jingbei, who was still kneeling on the ground, looked overwhelmed with joy, he raised his head slightly, contrary to his usual taciturn. I haven't stopped talking since I entered the study.

"Thanks to the medicinal materials that the emperor has given every month over the years, otherwise my father may not be able to wake up in this life, my father fell asleep for a long time, and after waking up, he almost couldn't recognize the son of Weichen, and his memory is still stuck in the time when the emperor sent him to leave Beijing on an errand more than ten years ago, the first sentence was to enter the palace to return to the emperor on an errand......" Xiao Jingbei gushed out.

Hearing Xiao Jingbei mention that Xiao Li went out to Beijing on an errand more than ten years ago, Zhao Tiannan's expression moved.

If it weren't for this incident, how could he have endured the pain of attacking Xiao Li, and also deprived himself of a loyal and available person.

In fact, he was not sure whether Xiao Li had gotten clues about the events of the year from Imperial Doctor Wu, and the reason why he poisoned Xiao Li was only out of a psychology of "I'd rather kill the mistake than let it go".

Now it seems that Xiao Li, he probably didn't know the cause of the incident back then.

Zhao Tiannan looked at Xiao Jingbei who was kneeling on the ground, as if he saw Xiao Li at the beginning, and then pressed the idea in his heart.

If it were in the past, even if he knew that Xiao Li was very likely not to know about the events of the year, he would definitely not let it go lightly, but now he is busy with the drought and food in the two places, and his energy has been really low recently, so it is a little powerless to free up his hands to arrange a flawless plan for Xiao Li.

After a long time, Zhao Tiannan waved his hand to let Xiao Jing, who was still immersed in excitement and excitement, go north.

That's it, in the end, he is a loyal person who has followed him for so many years, and since he can wake up in such a situation, it must be his creation.

Zhao Tiannan thought so.

……

The news of Xiao Li's awakening of An Guogong gradually became known to everyone in such a subtle and silent way, and everyone really realized what this meant, but they openly appeared in the capital after Xiao Li recovered his body.

It was also when they saw this face that had disappeared in the capital for more than ten years reappeared, and those courtiers who had worked with Xiao Li back then realized that he had really woken up.

At this time, the officials who were arranged by Zhao Tiannan to go out of Beijing to investigate the situation of the granaries in various places left Beijing. It's been more than a month and a half.

Calculating the time, there will be half a month at most, and those who can come back alive should return to Beijing, waiting for the real situation in the granary to be fed back. Presumably, the capital should be out of peace.

Feng Zhige wanted to take advantage of the tranquility before the storm to go out and relax, and then Mu Xiaoxiao came to the door as if she knew what she was thinking.

Since Mu Xiaoxiao entered Beijing, she has been controlled by her parents, and she rarely has the opportunity to go out, and most of the rare times she goes out is with Feng Zhige. So this time she couldn't stand it at home, so she went to Anguo Mansion uninvited.

This is the first time that a guest has come to the door of Anguo Mansion since Feng Zhige got married.

Mu Xiaoxiao also knows that the person in charge of the Anguo Mansion is Feng Zhige, and this will come to the door, if it was when Zhou Yuran was in charge before, she would never have stepped here.

I haven't seen her for a long time, Mu Xiaoxiao was excited for a while after seeing Feng Zhige, and after chattering for a long time, she complained about the helplessness of being ordered to stay at home and not allowed to go out.

Feng Zhige already had the idea of going out for a walk, and when he saw this, he remembered his dowry. There are several Zhuangzi located on the outskirts of Beijing, why don't you take advantage of the fact that the capital is still calm and go out for a walk first?

Thinking like this, he saw Xiao Jingbei stepping into the courtyard, and after seeing Mu Xiaoxiao, he was obviously stunned.

Because Mu Xiaoxiao was a close person, Feng Zhige was entertaining guests in the Leaf Courtyard, but he didn't expect Xiao Jingbei to return home early today, but he was embarrassed for a while.

However, Mu Xiaoxiao is already a big man, after the initial shyness. Ignoring Xiao Jingbei's cold face, he had to force him to call "cousin".

Xiao Jingbei's face turned black when he heard this request, but after he married Feng Zhige, it stands to reason that the girl in front of him who is a few years younger than himself is a cousin.

"Cousin, sister."

After a long time. Xiao Jingbei heard these two words pop out of his mouth.

After this, Feng Zhige and Mu Xiaoxiao moved to the flower hall, and Xiao Jingbei went back to the bedroom to change clothes.

Listening to Feng Zhige invite her to live in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing for a few days to relax, Mu Xiaoxiao was so happy that she almost didn't jump, and immediately paced back and forth and talked about what to prepare.

Feng Zhige's heart moved when he saw it.

Since she got married, she went back to the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion once on the day she returned home. It's been so long, presumably Mu Qingwan is also worried about her, so it's better to take advantage of this time to invite Mu Qingwan and Yu to live in Zhuangzi for a few days.

Following Mu Qingwan, Feng Zhige thought of the three aunts of the Mu family again, she had never had time to go to the Mu family, and the second uncle's family did not meet them a few times after returning to Beijing, as well as the cousins of the Mu family......

In addition, Xiao Jingbei seems to be resting for two days......

Thinking about it this way, Feng Zhige simply changed the original plan of three or two people to go out of Beijing to travel together.

Mu Xiaoxiao was originally a person who liked to be lively, and she was naturally happy to dance when she heard Feng Zhige say this, but after a while, she asked with some hesitation, "Cousin, can I still invite a friend?" ”

"Oh? Is my cousin a good handkerchief? Feng Zhige was a little curious.

Mu Xiaoxiao grew up in the border pass since she was a child, and she has learned kung fu, so her personality is naturally a little incompatible with the pampered ladies in Beijing, and even fewer are compatible with her.

Mu Xiaoxiao nodded when she heard this, "You also know the sister of the Qian family, I met my cousin and sister-in-law when I got married last time, and I felt a little familiar at first sight." ”

Feng Zhige didn't expect that the first handkerchief that Mu Xiaoxiao handed over in the capital was actually Qian Duoduo.

But thinking about it, Qian Duoduo and Mu Xiaoxiao are both straightforward and lively personalities, and it is not surprising that they will meet.

She didn't hate Qian Duoduo, and with Mu Xiaoxiao's request in front of her, there was naturally no reason not to agree, so she nodded and said, "In that case, even if my cousin invited Miss Qian to join her." ”

Hearing Feng Zhige say this, Mu Xiaoxiao hesitated a little, originally the people invited by Feng Zhige were all from her own family, so naturally there were not so many taboos, but if you invited Qian Duoduo together, with outsiders, not to mention anything else, men and women had to avoid taboos, and she had so many brothers......

Feng Zhige also thought of why Mu Xiaoxiao was in trouble, she thought about it, and said: "It's okay, several Zhuangzi in my dowry are next to each other, when the time comes, we will live in one Zhuangzi for women, and another Zhuangzi for men, just so my father-in-law has just woken up, so he can travel with us, and he can also ask Xiao Jingbei to invite his close friends together." ”

mentioned Xiao Jingbei, and remembered the embarrassment of being forced to call "cousin" by Mu Xiaoxiao just now, Feng Zhige wanted to laugh a little.

Mu Xiaoxiao didn't expect this stubble, after listening to Feng Zhige's solution, she couldn't sit still anymore, and she was about to rush back to inform the Mu family, and shouted that she should write a letter to Qian Duoduo quickly, so that she could arrange the time in advance.

Feng Zhige saw that she couldn't stay, so she could only let her go, so she only ordered someone to escort her all the way back to Mu's house.

Back in the main room, Xiao Jingbei was leaning against the window and flipping through a somewhat yellowed book, the bright light shone on his face, but it seemed that his face was much softer than usual.

Sensing that Feng Zhige was back, Xiao Jingbei looked up at her, although there was still not much expression on his face, the softness in his eyes was clearly visible. (To be continued.) )
