"Whew-"

Tang Haoqi exhaled deeply, kept telling himself "to be peaceful, to be friendly, not to be angry", and tried to squeeze out a smile and said, "Is there something going on over there?" ”

"Huh...... Look at what you are talking about...... "The person who came claimed to be the clerk beside Chu Lingze, as soon as he entered the hall, he greeted Luo Liyao's physical condition with a smile on his face, and then began to talk and stop, and at a glance, he knew that he had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace.

So Tang Haoqi responded with uh-huh, but he had no intention of making a false deal with him, so he just said straightforwardly: "Is there something wrong with you?" ”

"Uh...... This is it......" The clerk looked a little embarrassed, and he still wanted to speak a little, until he saw Tang Haoqi's impatient expression, and then hurriedly said, "Recently, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a difficulty-"

"But, at times like this, the crown prince personally came to visit our Highness?" Tang Haoqi suddenly frowned, and said deliberately, "Didn't you feel sluggish because your Highness has been in poor health recently, right?" ”

"How could it be-" The clerk hurriedly waved his hand and said in a panic, "It's just that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been really busy lately, and it was because the harvest in our Cangxia City was not good, but now it's ......"

"Don't babble, if Your Highness sees your style of wanting to talk and stopping back and forth, maybe one of you will be unhappy, and you will just leave it alone." Tianji, who was eating melons on the side, finally couldn't stand it anymore, and directly spit out the melon seeds in his mouth and opened his mouth, "We have been in Shenchu for too long, and the mission will arrive in only three days, and we must also prepare to go back to Tianqi with His Highness, Your Royal Highness the Prince-"

"Eh, eh, two adults, do you have something to say, something to say......" The clerk listened tightly, and hurriedly interrupted him, "You also know that the harvest in Cangxia City this year is too poor, and the New Year is approaching, not to mention that many people can't pay their taxes at all, so now the pot can't be opened......"

"Isn't that easy?" Tang Haoqi stretched out his hand to Tianji and asked for a piece of melon to nibble, spitting out seeds while gnawing, like a little gangster squatting in the market with nothing to do, "Don't you open a warehouse to release grain at this time?" Isn't the national treasury used to build the country and improve people's livelihood? ”

"If the treasury is abundant, it will definitely be a problem to open a warehouse and release grain, but the problem is ......" The clerk looked embarrassed, but some of them did not dare not speak, "The problem is that the treasury has been ...... It's already overloaded! ”

Tang Haoqi: !! ∑(ﾟДﾟノ)ノ!!!

天機:ヾ( ̄□ ̄; Hah?

"Your treasury is ...... Bottomed out?! Tang Haoqi was so shocked that he couldn't even hold the melon, blurted out a sentence and felt that it was inappropriate, and hurriedly added another sentence, "No, you told us about the embarrassment of the Shenchu treasury like this, is it okay?" ”

"No, no, no......" The clerk wiped the cold sweat on his head because of nervousness, waved his hand and said, "This is instructed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and there is no need to hide any true situation from Princess Zhenli's side, after all——"

"After all......" Tianji secretly gave Tang Haoqi a look, and naturally took his words, "After all, you are here now, or at the behest of His Royal Highness the Prince-"

"Whew." Seeing this, Tang Haoqi immediately got up and walked to the hall, "Don't panic, I'll go and ask His Highness what he means." ”

The clerk was suddenly confused: "Ah, this...... Isn't it-"

Tianji kindly handed him a piece of melon and said with a smile: "Isn't it?" ”

Clerman: "......"

He originally wanted to say, didn't he take him in to meet His Royal Highness Zhenli in person, how did he become a substitute for him?

However, he didn't dare to say much at all, this Tianqi's envoy was about to arrive in Shenchu in a few days, and they, as the hosts, naturally had to treat Princess Zhenli very well-however, these two are the people who have been guarding Princess Zhenli's side, they should be the kind that is deeply trusted by her, and they are not easy to mess with at first glance, plus the reaction of these two people just now...... Don't think about it, just wait.

Fortunately, Tang Haoqi moved quite quickly, and walked out again after less than a stick of incense, and said with a smile: "Do you still have anything to say?" ”

The clerk didn't know what he was saying, and subconsciously said, "Huh? ”

"Our Highness said-" Tang Haoqi smiled and put his hand on his shoulder, and said casually, "Shen Chu's harvest is not good, the royal city is famine, and the treasury is empty...... It sounds miserable, but Shen Chu's condition should be much more than that. ”

The clerk's heart suddenly shook, and his mouth grew unconsciously, and he froze for a moment before saying, "Princess Zhenli...... Did she say anything else? ”

"The point is not what our Highness said, but what you are hiding." Tang Haoqi patted him on the shoulder and smiled very sincerely, "Is there anything else going on with Your Royal Highness the Prince?" Well? ”

Clerman: "......"

"Oh, people don't want to say it, just let others go, you-" Tianji began to get impatient while eating melons, and was about to come up and pull away the clerical officer who was patted on the shoulder, "What do you want to do so much, we will go back soon, how good it is to go back, don't think about such things......"

Seeing that Tianji wanted to pull him out, it seemed that he wanted to save him from Tang Haoqi's clutches, but in fact he wanted to drive him away, so he hurriedly stopped: "No, no, no, no, please listen to me, two of you—"

The smile on Tang Haoqi's face deepened: "You say it, you say it." ”

Tianji pretended to be impatient and said, "Why do you talk so much? Hurry, hurry! ”

"Although there is not much money left in the treasury, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince originally wanted to save the share used in the palace in the year, and first take some deposits to buy some food from those grain merchants and distribute it to the people in case of emergency, but ......"

"But?"

"But the grain merchants got the news from nowhere that the treasury was empty, and that if they opened a warehouse to sell grain, they would have lost all their money! And at the same time, some people in the city bought grain from those grain merchants at high prices, and the money and goods were settled on the spot, and some of the smaller grain shops were already bought out......"

"Taking advantage of the famine in Cangxia City to spread before it spreads, it was purchased at a high price-" Tang Haoqi was angry when he thought of this, "Isn't this the so-called 'national disaster wealth'?!" ”

"Let's put your temper away first-" Luo Liyao listened to his complaints, chuckled and shook her head, only gently picking up a chess piece, "It's not that yet......"

Ye Luoqing looked at her appearance without hesitation, and said with a smile: "It seems that His Highness already has a way to deal with it?" ”

"There are only two countermeasures." Luo Liyao gently rubbed the smooth and warm chess pieces in her hand, and her right hand, which had recovered as before, was still a little less sensitive, trembling slightly and dropping the piece in her hand, "It all depends on who is the person who buys a lot of grain." ”

"The problem is ......" Ye Luoqing raised his hand, blocking Tang Haoqi, who was eager to try to get chess pieces to make trouble, and followed with a smile, "We don't know who this person is at all." ”

"It's hard to guess? If it's a businessman who just wants to get rich, it's just a matter of character-" Tang Haoqi saw that he couldn't get the chess pieces, so he immediately grabbed the white road, "But if he has a relationship with the political enemy of Prince Shenchu, it's not just a simple character problem......"

Luo Liyao glanced at him with a smile: "What do you say?" ”

"Your Highness, I find that you just like to ask knowingly-" Tang Haoqi snorted and said, "Isn't this a more obvious fact?" At such a time, I don't want to think about the people of my country, but I still use the disaster for my own personal gain, I am simply unworthy of being a human being! ”

Hearing his righteous indignant words, as if he remembered something, Tianji instantly laughed, and only said: "I can't see it, you still have a sense of justice." ”

"Isn't that the most basic?" The good boy Tang Haoqi glanced at Tianji, who seemed to be emotional and more like a helpless expression, and then looked at Luo Liyao smiled slightly, and didn't seem to take these feelings to heart, and suddenly didn't understand very much, "Don't you think so?" ”

"It's not that it doesn't work, it's just that I think it's ...... at some point," Tianji silently raised his head and looked at the golden murals on the top of the temple, "someone like you who reveals his true thoughts without thinking...... I don't really have many hearts, but I don't know if you are honest or stupid. ”

Tang Haoqi: !! ∑(ﾟДﾟノ)ノ!!!

Tang Haoqi: "It sounds like you're praising me, but if you think about it, you're scolding me." ”

Tianji: "It's okay, it's okay, it's not too stupid." ”

Tang Haoqi slapped him directly on the back: "Hmph! ”

"No wonder ......"

Luo Liyao retracted her gaze at Tang Haoqi, laughed lightly and dropped a son again, and when she wanted to pick up a son again, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she smiled: "Senior, this time...... But I won. ”

"Huh?" Ye Luoqing was also a little surprised, and after taking a closer look, he reluctantly admitted, "Indeed, my sunspot has fallen into a dead end." ”

"Looks like I'm lucky." Luo Liyao picked up the black and white chess pieces on the chessboard one by one, and sorted them one by one, "Before we set foot on the way home, we should be able to solve all these troubles——"

"It's okay, it's okay, you're talking like this......" Tang Haoqi raised his forehead, "I'm about to lose understanding to a smart person like me—you're really hard to understand." ”

"It's not difficult to understand, you just go and tell Chu Lingze directly, let's just go according to the original plan."

"Really? Now that the situation has changed, has our situation not changed? ”

"Nature is true." Luo Liyao and Ye Luoqing exchanged the colors of the chess pieces, and took the lead in dropping a piece in the center of the empty chessboard, "Just in case, the mission led by Chu Yang will arrive in three days, and we will make a move at that time." ”

"Your Highness is in the middle...... This is a paradox. Ye Luoqing nodded, "Not only can you sit in the central government to guide the country, but it is easy to fall into the encirclement and die for a lifetime - I'll wait and see." ”
