Chapter 030: Finding out the news
"What are you doing in a daze, come here, give me the battle to serve" Concubine Li looked at the subordinate who did not move, and scolded.
"Yes, sissy"
"Niangniang spare your life, Niangniang spare your life, ah!"
"Niangniang, the slave will never dare in the future, the slave will not dare, ah..."
"Humph! If I don't teach you a lesson today, it seems that you don't have the master of this palace in your eyes, continue to fight! ”
"Ah, Niangniang spare her life, the slave doesn't dare anymore" let Xiao'er wail there
Seeing the faces of other people change instantly, Concubine Li snorted disdainfully, leisurely brushed her hand with a handkerchief, elegantly picked up the tea that was put aside, took a sip, put it down, looked at her son next to her, and found that Junlu had no expression of fear on his face
"Lu'er, worthy of being the son of your mother, telling you for your mother, if someone in this palace chews the root of your tongue in your ear in the future, don't spare her, you know?"
"Eniang, Erchen knows" Junlu looked at Concubine Li, who was elegant on the surface but said the most ruthless words, thinking about something in his heart.
"Niangniang, Xiao'er fainted" The executioner came to report
"Oh? It's not fun to faint, go get a basin of water and wake up and keep fighting! Concubine Li's playful smile was as bright as the sun.
"Yes, sissy"
"This palace knows that there are people like Xiao'er among you, but this palace doesn't care about you now, if you commit it again, hum! Xiao'er is your fate, did you hear it" Concubine Li snorted coldly.
"Hui Niangniang, the little one knows" The crowd looked at the bright red blood and the painful screams over there, and remembered that if this was used on themselves, they couldn't help but tremble, and hurriedly bowed their heads and responded.
"Very good, the palace is lacking, Xia Er, help the palace to go back, by the way, Rujin, you will be responsible for the affairs of the Seven Princes in the future, if there is anything wrong, the palace will definitely ask you" Concubine Li put her hand on Xia Er's outstretched hand on the side, and said to an older grandmother below.
"Yes, don't worry, the slave will not disappoint the mother," Aunt Rujin stepped forward and responded respectfully.
"Okay, okay, let's all disperse, remember to do your own thing, keep your duty, this palace will naturally not blame you" Concubine Li waved her hand.
"Yes, Niangniang, thank you for Niangniang's teachings, the slaves and maids will definitely take it to heart"
In the imperial study, "Emperor Qi, General Yuwen and the rest of the food reinforcements will depart tomorrow"
"Well, I know" The emperor put aside the fold in his hand, picked up the slightly cold tea and took a sip gently.
"Your Majesty... Weichen has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not..." Luo Xiangguo said a little hesitantly.
"I don't know if to talk about it? Oh? I don't know when you hesitated so much," the emperor looked at Luo Xiangguo with interest.
"Speak! Of course, you didn't come to see me just to help with food."
"Back to the emperor, a few days ago Weichen Street met first-class people, it was from Liaocheng, Weichen saw him pitiful, in the inn asked Liaocheng about the situation, but a question really made Weichen surprised, that mouth said and the court officials protect each other, do not ask the people suffering, this natural disaster and man-made disaster, the magistrate is still singing every night, the joy of silk, if there are people to ask, then drag out with sticks... Along the way, every time I went to a place, the official either didn't care about it or shirked it, so I wanted to go to the capital and meet the saint and ask why we didn't care about the people of Liaocheng..."
Luo Xiangguo hesitated for a long time before he said slowly.
"It's just presumptuous! How can this be? The emperor was furious, stood up abruptly, and slapped the table three times in succession.
"The emperor is angry, and the ministers are panicking" Luo Xiangguo hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"Okay, Luo Xiangguo, you first talk to me about the specific situation, I want to see how my ministers do things," the emperor sat back in his chair tiredly, calmed down, and then asked, "If I remember well, then the head of Liaocheng is Cheng Taishou?" ”
"Returning to the Holy Lord, exactly"
"Humph! What a Cheng Zhijin..."The emperor snorted coldly and said,
At this time, the people in the Taishou Mansion in Liaocheng were miserable, but the Taishou Mansion was full of drunken money.
"This dog thing, it's really killing a thousand knives..."
"Shhhhhh
Two civilians on the corner of the street looked in the direction of the Taishou Mansion and scolded.
"Hey, in this world, when is it a head, doesn't it mean that today's saint is a rare Mingjun? This Rausch Zimingjun..."
"Oh hey, don't you say any more"
"Gone, gone"
"Two little brothers, what are you talking about?" asked a man in Tsing Yi.
"This little brother, listening to the accent is not local, who dares to come to us in this situation, they can't wait to run out, the little brother listens to the eldest brother's advice, hurry up and go back to where you came from" One of the men said.
"I don't know why, I have been earning a little money outside recently, and I want to take my sister back with me, but now I can't see anyone," the other man added.
"You don't know this, this Liaocheng has been in drought for a long time, there is a shortage of food, the price of rice and grain is extremely high, and the family has no conditions to start selling children and daughters, this is too much to keep the food stored in the house, most of them are forced to grab it and then sell it to the people at a high price, how to use it, this Cheng dog thing came up with the idea of exchanging children for food, as long as you fancy it, you will be accepted into the house as a concubine" The man said in an extremely hateful tone.
"Also, if your sister is handsome and is taken care of by Taishou, even if she doesn't want to, she will rob her, I see that you are very handsome, and your sister will not be bad if you want to come to the house, I'm afraid..."
"How can this be reasonable, doesn't this local government care?" The man in Tsing Yi was extremely shocked and angry.
"This official is protected by all officials and officials, how can this be managed... Alas... That's it."
"Okay, this little brother hurry up and find someone, hurry up and get out of this place of smoke and miasma"
The two little brothers thought about him and persuaded him to leave the place quickly.
"Thank you for the advice of the two little brothers, the little brother must remember" The man in Tsing Yi thanked the two little brothers for their kindness, turned around and disappeared into the street corner.
The young man returned to the deserted inn, it turned out that why he came to this inn was so deserted, it turned out that this was the reason, but the shopkeeper Xiao Er refused to reveal the slightest bit of information about Cheng Taishou, for fear of avoiding trouble, the man in Tsing Yi returned to the room and took off his mask, it turned out to be Jiang Yichen.
If you want to say why he came to Liaocheng, it is for Luoziqi's prescription, there is a medicinal herb in this prescription that is only produced in Liaocheng, so if you want to get it, you must come to take a trip, but who would have thought that he would actually see such a human sophistication, so he immediately wrote a letter and passed it to Luoziqi who was far away in the capital.
"Miss, Zi Yitang has a letter again," Ah Ning whispered in Luo Ziqi's ear after lunch.
"Hmm," Luo Ziqi replied softly, indicating that he understood.
"Ruoyu, my brother went to discuss with King Qi in Zuixue Building today, you went back to my brother, and when you come back, you will bring me the drunken fairy duck in Zuixue Building" Luo Ziqi instructed Ruoyu next to him to go to Lingyun Garden.
"Yes, Miss" Ruoyu knew that Luo Ziqi liked the drunken fairy duck in the drunken snow building the most, so he didn't doubt that he went out of the yard.
"You come with me," Luo Ziqi led A-Ning to his bedroom.
"Hall Master, this is from lunch" A-Ning half-knelt on the ground.
"You get up first," Luo Ziqi took the letter and immediately said to A-Ning, who was kneeling in half.
"Yes, thank you."
Luo Ziqi looked at the words on it carefully, and a trace of solemnity and indignation flashed between his eyebrows.
"Hall Master, but what tricky things have happened" Ah Ning said as he watched Luo Ziqi's expression change.
"It's tricky, it's not tricky, but this matter has to be resolved as soon as possible so as not to mess up my arrangement..."Luo Ziqi put the finished paper on the candle and lit it, looking at the burning red tongue and whispering.
"Master, the emperor already knows about this Liaocheng matter, and sent General Yuwen and Chen Shangshu to escort the grain aid to the disaster relief past," the man in black said respectfully to the person in front of him.
"Well, then," the young man said nonchalantly, as if he had already known about the development.
"The people from the palace said that after the next dynasty, Luo Xiangguo went to meet the emperor again, and he stayed in the imperial study for a long time before coming out," the man in black continued to reply.
"Oh?" The boy's calm tone rose a little.
"It seems to be for Cheng Taishou in Liaocheng"
"Then Cheng Tai took the blame and removed our people, so it is difficult for the emperor not to pay attention to it, but this king wants to see the next development" The young man mentioned the man disdainfully.
"Yes, master, what about our acquisition of the Ancient City?" The man in black asked.
"Hold it down for the time being, the old city and Liaocheng are only one city apart, and when this matter passes, this king is not in a hurry at this time" The young man's eyes were shining.
"Niangniang, the drought in Liaocheng is serious, the emperor seems to attach great importance to it, and sent someone to help the disaster to find out the situation, if the Niangniang brother does not restrain at this time, it will inevitably cause the emperor to be angry, and you will also be implicated" An elderly grandmother in the Jade Concubine Palace whispered to the Jade Concubine on the main throne.
This Liaocheng Shoucheng Jin Cheng Taiwei is the elder brother of the Jade Concubine, this position is still prepared for the brother by the Jade Concubine with the wind in her ears, originally the land of Liaocheng is fertile, and it is also extremely good, and the position of the Taishou has a lot of oil and water, and the elder brother is a gentleman, and his father also gave up on him, thinking of finding a place to arrange an official position for him casually, and he went.
Over the years, she also knows how Cheng Zhijin has exploited civilians, but she has never asked, after all, the sky is high and the Yellow Emperor is far away.
But now, this is a big deal in the eyes of the emperor, if the emperor accidentally catches the handle, it will naturally affect the status of his father in the court, and the situation of his harem will also change form.
"Mama, this palace knows that it has long been sent to my brother before the emperor's order, I believe that my brother Dong will not let this palace down" Concubine Yu covered her mouth and smiled, looking strategic, extremely arrogant and confident.
"Wise Mother"
On the second day, at the gate of the palace city, the emperor looked at the team ready to go, and the eunuch announced that "the emperor told the emperor that there was a great drought in Liaocheng today, and the people were suffering, and I was very sad, and the treasury was opened on the same day to relieve it, and three days later, the rain ceremony was held to seek rain from the sky, that is, General Yuwen was sent as an escort, and Chen Shangshu was the inspection envoy to investigate the situation of Liaocheng, and brought 100,000 stones of grain to help it."
"Weichen commands, long live the emperor, long live long live"
