Seeing this www.biquge.info Xia Wanfeng knew that Xi Ze was angry, and hurriedly said: "The emperor is angry, King Xiao is indeed excessive, how can Mu Chengjiang not know at all, it's just that the places where Xiao people go are deep mountains and old forests, and the terrain is steep, and our people won't go at all, so they didn't stop it in time enough, Mu Chengjiang and King Xiao also had some negotiations, however, King Xiao only sent a few carts of dead cattle and sheep as compensation afterwards, and the matter was over!" ”

"How many wagons of dead cattle and sheep?" Xi Ze was even angrier, "What good does that do?" Does King Xiao just use these useless things to make up for it? I lost a lot of money on this deal! Why is Mu Chengjiang so perfunctory? I'm really angry, you sent an order down and ordered Mu Chengjiang to immediately lead people to stop Xiao Ren from cutting down trees in Cangzhou, and at the same time, negotiate with King Xiao again and cut down so much wood, it is definitely not a few carts of cattle and sheep that can do it! If he can't do this well, I won't give up! ”

Xia Wanfeng hurriedly said: "The emperor is angry, the emperor's will, Weichen will definitely pass it on!" It's just that...... There is very little news from Cangzhou, and I don't know what Mu Chengjiang is doing in Cangzhou? If he is allowed to contact King Xiao frequently, it will not be good! ”

Xi Ze closed his eyes and took a deep breath, stretched out his hand and knocked on the table unconsciously, and said faintly: "Are you saying that Mu Chengjiang and King Xiao are playing other ulterior calculations when they negotiate such a loss-making deal?" ”

Xia Wanfeng's eyes flashed with a gleam: "If the emperor wants to use troops against Xiao Guo at this time, I'm afraid it's not the right time!" ”

Xi Ze slowly opened his dragon eyes, and said with a sense of hatred: "If it is really as you guessed, Mu Chengjiang has no loyalty to me, how can he fight for the country?" I'm afraid that my power will be in vain if I want to use the war against Xiao Guo, what kind of calculation is he making, you will send someone to find out carefully, and then report to me, I have my own plans! ”

Xia Wanfeng hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Weichen obeys the order, the emperor will temporarily endure this evil breath, this time, the person sent by Weichen will definitely let Mu Chengjiang give an explanation!" Mu Xuesong is still in the hands of the emperor, Mu Chengjiang does not dare to be presumptuous! ”

Xi Ze advised: "You must send someone you can trust, it is best to place someone by Mu Chengjiang's side, and let me keep a good eye on this old fox!" ”

Xia Wanfeng immediately said: "Yes! ”

Xi Ze took a deep breath, there seemed to be too much sorrow, raised his eyes and looked out the window, the snow was still flying, as if it was a big bundle of goose feathers shaking off in the sky, endless, Xi Ze retracted his gaze, looked at Xia Wanfeng, his eyes were deep, and he frowned and asked: "The weather is so cold, my treasury is empty, life is very difficult, there are a large number of victims everywhere, but prices are soaring, and they are still so high, how will the people live?" Is there a way to bring prices down? ”

Xia Wanfeng sighed long, and frowned: "Now even if there are crops in the field, they are frozen to death, and they don't grow at all, and a lot of land has become wasteland, and the food you get is very small, how can the price be controlled?" In fact, they can't be blamed, the price of other things has also risen amazingly! ”

Xi Ze asked faintly: "Are the carbon fires everywhere really nervous now?" ”

"yes!" Xia Wanfeng nodded and said, "The most powerful rise in prices is the price of carbon fire, which has increased several times compared to previous years, ordinary people can't afford carbon fire at all, this weather, every day is heavy snow, no sunshine, merchants just want to cut trees to make carbon fire, but also because the wood is too wet and difficult, so wet wood can't be lit at all, let alone burned to make carbon fire, many officials' homes have run out of carbon fire, and now it is even more difficult to buy a basket of carbon fire!" Therefore, the price of carbon fire has risen the most! ”

When Xi Ze heard this, his brows furrowed even deeper: "Have you run out of carbon fire in your mansion?" ”

Xia Wanfeng was stunned when she heard this, and then sighed heavily: "It's basically used up, but Weichen is a man, so he is not so afraid of the cold!" I do things in the court every day, and I don't have many days at home, but I don't need much carbon fire! ”

Xi Ze sighed faintly: "There is only half a basket of carbon fire left in the Chengguang Palace, but Qin Tianjian told me that this heavy snow will fall for another month......

Xia Wanfeng hurriedly said: "The emperor doesn't have to worry about the carbon fire, if you want ordinary black charcoal, it's not too difficult, but the price is high, but Weichen is willing to offer carbon fire to the emperor, and the emperor will definitely get through this snowy day safely!" ”

Xi Ze took a deep breath, raised his hand to stop him from continuing, and said: "It doesn't matter how much carbon fire I have here, I can do it as soon as I can, and besides, I have decided to reduce the amount of carbon fire in the palace to half, Chengguang Hall naturally has to take the lead, you don't have to offer carbon fire to me, what I'm worried about is Weiyang Palace, the general black charcoal burns too much smoke, and you have to have good silver gray carbon...... If the imperial concubine does not have silver gray carbon heating this year, I am afraid she will not be able to survive! ”

Xia Wanfeng looked very embarrassed, he frowned slightly and thought about it, and said: "This silver gray carbon is the best in the carbon fire, there is no smoke at all after burning, and it is very burned, listen to the people below, there is no silver gray carbon sold in the capital at present, even if there is, it is rare and difficult to find!" ”

Xi Ze closed his eyes and sighed long: "The silver-gray carbon in Weiyang Palace has probably been used up, and I still have half a basket here, even if I send it all, it won't last long!" ”

Seeing this, Xia Wanfeng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry too much, Weichen will look for it again!" You can keep the silver gray carbon here for yourself, and there will be a way to solve it in Weiyang Palace! ”

Xi Ze opened his eyes, tightened his hand, and said, "What is the price of silver gray carbon now?" ”

Xia Wanfeng said: "I heard that it has risen to eight hundred taels and one quintals!" ”

Xi Ze was slightly surprised: "It has risen so much, ordinary people can't afford to bear it all year round!" At this time, I can't be too extravagant, Weiyang Palace has no way, I have the general black charcoal here to barely support it, but Weiyang Palace can't do it, otherwise, the imperial concubine's body can't stand it! I will send the steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to look for it with you, and I will allocate this money to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and I will not let you out! In the New Year, your money will be almost used, and there are still many places to use silver, so you can save some! ”

Xia Wanfeng smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your compassion!" It's just that, whether it's looking for carbon fire or disaster relief, Wechen will do his best! ”

Xi Ze nodded, and raised his voice outside: "Sixi, pass on the head of the Internal Affairs Office!" ”

Sixi agreed outside and retreated!

Seeing this, Xia Wanfeng hugged her fists and said, "Then Weichen will retire first!" ”

Xi Ze raised his hand and waved, "You go get busy!" ”
