326. 238 The final black hand
Jiang Chuji, who had become a space servant, was extremely well-behaved, and stood beside Mei Niang respectfully and obediently and shouted, 'Master'.
Mei Niang's face twitched, she only felt a lot of pressure, but since she had done everything, there was nothing to regret, anyway, with Jiang Chuji's character, she swore that she would never waste a myelin-washing pill to cancel the contract for him.
Jiang Chuji told Emperor Jiang how he had brought people in the first place, and used the storage jade bracelet to steal the grain in the cities with sufficient food reserves, but only left enough food that would not starve the people in the city to death, and would not have the ability to support the army and respect itself.
After all, now that the country is in turmoil, the city lords of the cities have too much food and grass, and they are afraid that they will have all kinds of thoughts, and he can't stand it if he mutinies again.
As for the stolen grain, it was not moved, it was all managed by Emperor Jiang's most trusted subordinates, Jiang Chuji, as Emperor Jiang's own son, although his reputation was not very good, but he had more trust than others, and it was not as difficult to control as Jiang Chuye, so it was very reassuring to send two powerful ministers to assist and send them out to manage the grain.
After there is no food, even if the city lords of each city want to rebel, they don't have the strength, and then Emperor Jiang will send people to relieve the disaster city by city, using the stolen grain, and not distributing much each time, a month's food is enough, even if it will not starve people to death, it is easy to control, although it is troublesome, but it is the protection of his forces.
Originally, Jiang Chuji brought people into Xinyong City today to find out if there was any surplus grain in the city, if it was gone, it just happened to be able to distribute relief food in the name of Emperor Jiang, but who knew that as soon as he arrived outside Xinyong City, he saw carriages rushing to outside the city, and he brought people over to check it out of curiosity.
Emperor Jiang's approach Mei Niang can understand, but it is just to stabilize his throne, no matter how much a person with a desire for profit does not feel strange, although during this period, it is inevitable that people will starve to death because Jiang Chuji cannot send food in time, but the death of a few people is nothing compared to the stable country.
When asked about S13 and Miss Linglong again, Jiang Chuji was at a loss, although he knew that Miss Linglong was the city lord of Xinyun City, but this matter really had nothing to do with him, and S13? Who's that, he's never heard of it, okay?
It is impossible for the space servants to lie to their masters, Mei Niang and Jiang Chuye are convinced of his words, so that S13 is really unlucky, and they didn't expect that there would be another black hand after the black hand.
Inadvertently asked where they had robbed the grain in addition to stealing the grain from each city, Jiang Chuji said it all like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, what they didn't expect was that the seemingly peaceful Liujia Village annihilation incident was actually done by Jiang Chuji and his people, and hundreds of people in the village were wiped out because of the grain that fell from the sky.
The elderly, women and children, it is not easy to survive in the disaster year, and finally hope to come to the 'gods' to give food, but the food did not eat a few bites, but it led to the disaster of killing, if they did not have such kindness at the beginning, can they live longer?
After knowing that it wasn't the people in the deep mountain col who did it, Mei Niang actually felt lucky, at least those people were not really bad to the bones, so that her good heart did not fall to pieces.
Let's go and see it next time, as long as it can be improved, she is willing to help them more.
It's just that the mood is very heavy, and the people who have always respected it in their hearts have suddenly become different, so cruel for their own interests, Mei Niang and Jiang Chuye don't know whether their insistence is right or wrong.
was originally well-intentioned, but it became the cause of the crime, but the biggest villain gave them a headache, except for a deep sense of powerlessness, they didn't know how to face Emperor Jiang.
Jiang Chuye silently withdrew from the space, Mei Niang hurriedly followed out, the two entered the space in different places, and naturally they would not be in one place when they went out, they ran out of the mountain respectively, and then found a place that looked more like being able to hold food, and took out bags of grain from the space, without the threat of food being robbed, they wanted to ensure that the people of Xinyongcheng could eat for the time being.
It's just that this trip out, the grain loaded by the five hundred carriages is only one meal for the people of Yongcheng, and it is definitely not practical to expect to come and pull it once a day, and there is really no place to hide grain nearby.
Converge in front of the mountain, and command the people to go into the mountain to carry grain, back and forth for a few hours, when the car is full, it is already half of the night, those who drive the car do not stop, leaving half of the people here to guard the surplus grain in the mountain, the other half of the people escort the carriage to the new Yongcheng rush, they know that the people of the new Yongcheng can eat a bite of food early when they go back early.
Mei Niang and Jiang Chuye did not go back with the car, they were separated from the people who drove the car at the foot of the mountain, and they were not very relieved about the food in the mountain, although they looked at it a lot, they only pulled the number of two more times, which was far from the 30 million catties that Mei Niang said to Fang Kun.
Of course, they didn't think about letting this little person transport back 30 million catties of grain little by little, at this time it was late at night, Mei Niang and Jiang Chuye sat on the flying carpet, flew all the way back to Xinyong City, and after quietly filling the granary, they returned to the room where they were hiding before.
One of the black hands behind the scenes was cut off, and another one was hidden deeper, they didn't know how to rescue S13, but they vaguely felt that the black hand was still in Xinyong City.
The two of them looked like a middle-aged couple, and after getting up in the morning, they walked around Xinyong City, and their ears were full of surprises, all saying that the gods gave food to Xinyong City again last night, and the grain was the best rice, and the people of Xinyong City finally didn't have to go hungry anymore.
The porridge in the morning is also rare and sticky, and each person has an extra big steamed bun with a fist, accompanied by a pickle, which is really rare and delicious.
The people in the city all ran to tell each other happily, and Mei Niang and Jiang Chuye were also infected with their joy, and they also came over with bowls and lined up in the queue to drink with bowls of porridge.
It can be seen that everyone who goes to serve porridge will have a wooden brand, and when the porridge is served, the number will be reported, and someone next to it will follow the record, and although there are many people in Xinyongcheng, there are also many porridge points, and everyone's porridge team seems to be fixed, which makes Mei Niang and Jiang Chuye sigh that it is not easy to eat together, and they don't know when the system was implemented, they didn't know at all.
Quietly put away the bowl and flash people, otherwise there is no brand in the past, and it must not be caught as a spy?
Today's Xinyongcheng is really completely militarized, and there used to be some shops on the street that did business, but now they are all gone, and those shops have been converted into private houses, and many people live there.
After going around in Xinyong City, I didn't find anything suspicious, but it infected the joy of many people, which made the husband and wife feel a lot brighter, because the depressing atmosphere brought by Emperor Jiang was diluted.
I didn't have to eat breakfast, so I finally rushed back to the empty house, and went into the space to make a few side dishes by Mei Niang.
After eating, digest and digest the food, go back to sleep, recuperate enough, and continue to look for news from S13 at night, and Miss Linglong, who is likely to be a breakthrough, this time I have to pry her mouth open no matter what, and this matter always feels like it has something to do with her.
Compared to the development that Emperor Jiang can control, the person hidden behind Miss Linglong is the most uneasy existence for Mei Niang, who can invalidate her space servant contract, and leave no trace to get S13 away Now I don't know if I'm alive or dead, who else has this ability besides the Federation?
If this is really the work of the Federation, what is their purpose? Already dissatisfied with the speed at which she amassed wealth? Or are you dissatisfied with her refusal to scatter space and sacrifice herself for the common people?
Anyway, it made Meiniang insomnia.
Mei Niang, who couldn't sleep, stared at Jiang Chuye's face, that eyebrow and that eye have been carved into the bottom of her heart, although there is no vigorous love, but it is a natural peace of mind, even if the two are busy running around most of the time when they are together, she can feel the pride and sense of accomplishment that other women can't experience.
Jiang Chuye never asked her to be locked up in the world of the mansion like other women, and abide by the three obedience and four virtues of women. Jiang Chu didn't talk much, in addition to using actions to express his heart for her, he gave her as much respect as possible that was different from that of women in this era, and the relationship between husband and wife based on equal feelings made Mei Niang trust him wholeheartedly.
If the main reason why she refused to disperse the space was because Jiang Chuye was gone, she didn't know what the consequences of dispersing the space would bring, she didn't dare to bet on whether it would hurt Jiang Chuye to share the space with her, so she didn't dare to bet, just as Jiang Chuye didn't dare to let her gamble on whether she would be hurt after dispersing the space.
However, in case the deepest hidden behind the scenes is the so-called Federation...... Mei Niang suddenly lost the courage to fight, it can be said that everything she has now is given by the Federation, what does she use to fight against the Federation?
It's not her character to accept her fate like this without fighting, so that she can't sleep over and over again, but I'm afraid that everything will change when she wakes up after falling asleep.
Mei Niang, who couldn't sleep, simply entered the space, in case she had to disperse the space to save people in the future, she also had to be fully prepared, at least the things in the space couldn't be cheaper than others.
First of all, she has to keep the vending machine, and the various magical machines bought from the vending machine can't be lost, and Mei Niang is all packed into the storage jade bracelet.
As for the loss of space, will the storage jade bracelet also be recycled? She wasn't in the mood to worry about that for the time being, and it was better to be well prepared than to do nothing.
There is also her family, including everyone including the Su family brothers, according to the description of the people who survived from Wen Yang's space last time, there are still many people in Wen Yang's space, and when Wen Yang's space disappeared, those people did not reappear, either trapped in that sleeping space, or disappeared with Wen Yang's disappearance.
No matter what, Mei Niang didn't want her relatives to be such a result, so her first thing was to find a place to temporarily settle her family outside the space, which was better than panicking when things came to the end.
And where is the best place to temporarily settle the family other than Baohe Village? After all, it is a place where they have lived, even if the mountains are not verdant and the water is not as gentle as it was at the beginning, after all, that land is the land that has nurtured them for many years.
