Since it is difficult to deal with it in the open, he will solve it secretly, even if it is the emperor Lao Tzu or Da Ri Rulai, as long as it is the murderer of his daughter, he will not let it go, and no one can stop it.

The angry weather was like Hua Qianchuan's mood, the sky collapsed, and it rained heavily for several days, and some towns in the southern part of the Central Plains were flooded one after another, and floods were plagued.

On this day, the rain finally stopped, but the sky was still not very beautiful, the light blue belt was a little gray, there were not many clouds, the weather after the rain was not refreshing at all, but sullen, making people feel very lazy, Mu Chen slept very late before getting up, and then read the classics in the hall alone.

Xiaoyu smiled and walked into the main hall, saying that next month is the Spring Festival, so she came to consult the prince how to decorate the palace to have a more festive atmosphere.

But Mu Chen was not interested in any of this, and asked Xiaoyu if he had any good suggestions.

"Why don't you cut some window flowers and stick them on the windows, and add some potted plants in front of the hall?" Xiao Yu proposed, "What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think?" ”

Mu Chen felt that as long as there was something to eat, she didn't care about it, "Okay, you can just make a decision on these little things, Xiaoyu, you don't need to ask this king." ”

"How can this be? The East Palace is the East Palace of His Royal Highness the Prince, of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must like it, and slaves and maids are not allowed to assert themselves. Although Xiaoyu is no longer as afraid of the prince as before, she still has a bottom line and knows that there is a difference between master and servant.

"This king said that it is okay, don't waste this king's brain cells for such a boring thing." Mu Chen yawned, feeling as if he couldn't sleep enough in this kind of weather.

"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is bored, it is better to go to the newly opened market in the east of the capital at night, I heard that there are many novel gadgets and games there, and it is much more lively than the old market." Xiaoyu knew that the prince liked to be lively, and she happened to hear the eunuch who came back from the palace two days ago mention this bazaar, so as soon as she heard the prince say that it was boring, she immediately told it.

Mu Chen felt very right when he heard it, and immediately put down the scroll in his hand, his eyes lit up, and all his sleepiness was swept away: "Xiaoyu, you are really on the road, and it is not in vain that this king has always loved you the most." ”

In fact, Xiaoyu wanted to say: Why don't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bring the slaves and maids.

However, Xiaoyu knew that she couldn't leave the palace casually, so she just said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes it, if it's really so novel and fun, you must tell us." ”

If you don't have to experience it yourself, it's always okay to listen to it.

"Absolutely." Mu Chen's green robe waved, and he went to the outside of the hall full of energy to find someone to bow.

In the evening, she had dinner early, so she changed into casual clothes and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find Su Wuxie.

It happened that I met Soapberry and Su Wuxian talking about the flood in the south.

Although Su Wuxian is a military general, Wuzi is the prime minister, so at home, whether it is national government affairs or battlefield warfare, they will communicate with each other.

After reviewing the etiquette, Mu Chen only felt that the soapless son was worried.

"What's the Emperor's worries?" As a student, Mu Chen felt that he had to care about his teacher.

Soapberry sighed again and again: "Many towns in the southern part of the Central Plains have been seriously flooded due to the heavy rain these days, although the rain has stopped in the capital, but the south is still full of thunder and lightning, flooding, and the magistrates have asked for rescue, but when there is no disaster, I don't know, and now I find out that the treasury has long been empty, and there is no silver to relieve the disaster, which is really bitter for the people in the disaster area." ”

Such a serious matter, Mu Chen was thinking, how could she not know?

Oh, by the way, think about it, it turned out that I overslept today, so I didn't go to court.

It is not the first time that Mu Chen did not go to court because of private matters, at the beginning, Emperor Yonghe would care about it, but later found that this son was sometimes in poor physical condition, and sometimes he had to learn literature and martial arts, so gradually, Emperor Yonghe and his courtiers were commonplace, and everyone would not take this matter seriously.

When Mu Chen heard the news, she was not only worried about the people in the disaster area, she thought more broadly and in the long term, the emptiness of the treasury must be that the corrupt officials in the DPRK and China have put the silver taels in their pockets, and no one will spit out the fat in their mouths, so it is impossible to ask them to take the initiative to donate, if this flood is not rescued, it will definitely boost the arrogance of the corrupt officials, and at the same time, it will also cause public anger, which will be very detrimental to the reputation of Emperor Yonghe.

Wouldn't that give Hua Qianchuan another chance?

His power really can't grow any longer, otherwise sooner or later the Mu dynasty will be changed to Hua.

If money is donated to the disaster area, the crisis can be resolved.

But this money, a lot of money, where shall it come from?

If only I could get some from those corrupt officials.

It's a good idea to get some money from corrupt officials.

Mu Chen was suddenly in a good mood: "Emperor, how much money do you need for this earthquake?" ”

"The scope of the disaster this time is very extensive, and a total of 100,000 taels of silver is needed, but the imperial court can't even take out 10,000 taels now."

"One hundred thousand taels of silver, a trivial matter, don't worry about it, give this king a little time, and this king will raise enough money as soon as possible, so that the court can send it to the disaster area." Mu Chen was so confident that he almost didn't pat his chest with his hand.

Listening to the prince's tone, Wuzi was full of confidence, and finally showed a little joy: "The prince has a good plan? ”

"This layer of the emperor doesn't have to worry about it anymore, anyway, leave it to this king, you can wait for the money with peace of mind." Mu Chen threw a wink at Su Wuxian again, "What about you, you can also accompany this king to the market with peace of mind." ”

Although the soapless son will still be skeptical, he has no choice, so he believes that the prince will have a way for the time being.

Su Wuxian left the Prime Minister's Mansion with Mu Chen and headed for the new market in the Eastern District.

The stalls here are much more abundant than those of the old bazaar, especially with many prize games.

"Objective, come here to take a look, the fish in the water is very cost-effective, you can clip five times for a penny, as long as you clip one, you will have a prize, if you can clip six, it will be a grand prize." The boss over there kept shouting, and there were many onlookers next to him.

Mu Chen pulled Su Wuxian over to take a look, it turned out that this so-called fish in the water is to give you a pair of chopsticks to clip the live fish in the fish tank, and it can be clamped out and put into the empty jar prepared by the boss to be considered a success. Although they are all small fish, but those small fish are jumping around, and their bodies are slippery, how can they be so easy to clamp up, but this boss can figure it out, and it is obvious that they are pitfalls.

Not to mention ordinary people, even if someone like Mu Chen has been practicing martial arts for many years, he doesn't dare to boast that he will definitely be able to catch it.

Moreover, what else is said to be a jackpot for six of a kind, isn't this a clear lie? It can only be clamped five times, no matter how powerful it is, it can be clamped at most five, how to clip six?

After a while, several customers tried without success, and none of them succeeded.

"This game is so pitiful, how can ordinary people do it." Mu Chen was beside him.

"It's not difficult." Su Wuxian said that he took out a penny and gave it to the boss.

Mu Chen glared for a moment, a little surprised, he didn't expect this piece of wood to spend money to play games, just wait and see.

Su Wuxian picked up the most ordinary pair of chopsticks, opened and closed them twice in his hand, and began to put them into the water.

The two chopsticks spread at a certain angle and slowly moved into the water, the speed was very slow, almost not alarming the water and fish in the tank, and after the chopsticks entered the water level about a third of the way, the movement stopped, as if waiting for something.

Mu Chen and the onlookers couldn't help but be nervous, almost holding their breath.

Mu Chen's heart kept spinning, what was Su Wuxian waiting for? Could he have believed Jiang Ziya's set and waited for the fish to take the bait automatically? Alas, if this is the case, it will be miserable, it is just a legend, whoever wishes to take the bait, it is all a lie, who would be so bored and automatically sent to death? Don't think that all the fish in the world are stupid.

She just thought about it, and was suddenly stunned by Su Wuxie's movements.

In the blink of an eye, the agile hand picked up a small fish and put it in the jar on the other side, only to see the small fish keep swaying in the jar.

Mu Chen couldn't help but clapped his palms: "It's amazing, how did you do it?" ”

"As long as you don't alarm the small fish, and then look at the position to clamp it, the small fish will not slip away so easily." Su Wuxie made a lot of sense, but it wasn't easy to do.

Others also gave applause, even the boss praised it.

In the next three times, Su Wuxian was very successful in catching three small fish, and there were more and more onlookers, and everyone didn't dare to blink, for fear of missing the most exciting moment.

There are already four small fish, and there is one last one left.

The boss reminded with a smile: "Objectivity is really powerful, if you can clip two more at a time, you can get the grand prize of our store." ”

"Boss, you're talking about the wrong thing with a cramp, right? How do you clip two at a time? If you clip five times in five times, you will have a grand prize, right? Mu Chen opened his eyes wide and argued.

The boss smiled: "That's right, five times to six, it's the grand prize." ”

Mu Chen pursed his lips to show his dissatisfaction.

She still thinks it's unlikely, if it's a tank of dead fish, it's still a little possible, but each of these fish is alive and in the prime of life, unless she happens to meet two fish, and she is so confused by Su Wuxie's beauty that she forgets to escape, so that she has a chance to succeed.

Su Wuxian raised his hand and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

Mu Chen had no choice but to keep his mouth shut and continue to watch.

This time, Su Wuxian still slowly inserted the chopsticks into the water, but after entering the water, he waited for a long time and did not act, so everyone was a little impatient.

The boss also whispered a little on the side, but the guest was God, he didn't show impatience, just persuaded with kind words: "Objective, if you really can't do it, you can give up, even if you get four or five, there is still a prize, but it's not a big prize." ”

"Hey, boss, what you said seriously affects the mood of the contestants, if you can't catch it, you have to be responsible." Mu Chen's tone was a bit of a hooligan, no way, who told her to be very unhappy with the rules of the game, and she just caught a good opportunity to cheat, how could she let it go.

The boss looked embarrassed: "Don't embarrass me objectively, I'm just a small business, you see your friend has been delaying for a long time, he hasn't ended, I can't do this business." ”
