Chapter 260: I Can't Even Afford Gruel
The eldest princess saw the three princes' somewhat gloomy eyes, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in her heart.
"Someone." The eldest princess shouted outside the hall.
But no one responded to her words.
Inside the dormitory, it was frighteningly quiet.
"What did you do to them?" The eldest princess blushed.
"It's not that good, it's just that I think they have worked hard with their aunt, let the guards take them down to rest and rest, and give them some snacks to eat." The third prince said slowly.
"Third child, what are you going to do? "The emperor never imagined that one day he would be imprisoned by his own son in this square inch."
For a while, he was furious, coughing out of breath, and his pale face turned red.
Gonggong Fu felt uncomfortable on the couch to help the emperor pat his back and breathe, and couldn't help but persuade: "Third prince, forgive the old slave for talking too much, how can you say that you and the Holy Lord are both father and son, can't you discuss anything slowly?" Why make such a fuss? ”
The third prince showed an extremely impatient look on his face, walked quickly in front of Gonggong Fu, raised his foot and gave Gonggong Fu a kick: "No matter what you say, you are a minion, where is your part in speaking here?" ”
Fu Gonggong was kicked and stumbled, although Fu Gonggong had internal strength, but because he didn't dare to resist with internal force, after being kicked in the heart, his eyes were also black.
The eldest princess looked at the third prince whose temperament had changed drastically, and her hands shook in shock and horror.
Suddenly, the eldest princess saw the third prince slowly approaching her, her face was a little calm, and she twisted her eyebrows and stepped back.
"What are you going to do, beast? That's your aunt! The emperor, who had just breathed a sigh, noticed the malice of the third prince towards the eldest princess, and was so anxious that he hammered up the edge of the bed.
It seemed that the title of the evil animal completely angered the third prince, he turned to look at the emperor with a gloomy face, and asked in a cold voice: "The father said that the son is an evil animal, what is the father who gave birth to the evil animal?" ”
The emperor was choked, and regretted in his heart that he had not been defensive against the three princes, and he actually fell into the way.
It seems that the matter of being able to defeat the emperor in the confrontation is a very happy thing here for the third prince.
With a smile on his face, he suddenly grabbed the eldest princess's wrist, and then with his other hand, he took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve pocket, and pressed his thumb on the wooden stopper of the porcelain bottle.
The eldest princess didn't have to think about it, she knew that the contents of the porcelain vase were definitely not a good thing, and she struggled in horror, trying to break free from the grip of the third prince.
However, the eldest princess has been pampered for half her life, where is the opponent of the young and strong three princes.
Seeing that the third prince was about to break open the mouth of the eldest princess and forcibly pour a pungent unknown substance, the emperor who was sick in bed coughed anxiously, coughing and coughing, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his throat.
"Father-in-law Fu, go, go and help." The emperor commanded Gonggong Fu in a trembling voice.
But as soon as Gonggong Fu moved, the third prince snorted coldly and threatened: "If you want to do something like a dog slave, be careful that I don't take my aunt's life!" Father, you can't protect yourself, why do you have so much to do? ”
Father-in-law Fu didn't dare to move.
Seeing that the eldest princess was poured an unknown drug by the third prince.
After the third prince let go of the eldest princess's wrist, the eldest princess hurriedly leaned aside, trying to pick her throat with her fingers, and vomited out the medicine she had just been forced to swallow.
"What did you feed Hongu?" The eldest princess gritted her teeth and questioned the third prince.
The third prince smiled proudly, with a very generous smile on his face: "Auntie said that she was laughing."
Now, what can a nephew feed his aunt? It's just some throat-moistening sugar water, aunt let's go back to the princess's mansion first, and in the future, even if my father comes, my nephew won't stop me.
It's just that my aunt should know what to say and what not to say when she goes out. Don't worry, as long as the nephew succeeds, he will definitely give the antidote to his aunt in the future. ”
Although the eldest princess was so angry with the three princes that her heart and lungs hurt, but now she didn't dare to provoke the three princes at will, she only hoped that the medicine given to her by the mysterious person would work, otherwise I am afraid that the third prince would really be on the throne.
"Brother Huang, Yingying will go back, and Yingying will come to see Brother Huang when she is free." The eldest princess turned her back to the third prince, and when she said goodbye to the emperor, she covered the hidden medicine bottle with her wide sleeves and quietly delivered it to the emperor.
The emperor took it quietly and hid it under the futon......
Feng Lingxi has been paying attention to the eldest princess's movements since he sent the medicine to the eldest princess's mansion.
originally thought that after a few days of this medicine, the toxins in the emperor's body could be temporarily suppressed.
But in the past two days, Long Yi went to inquire about the news, and the news he got was that the emperor had not yet gone to court.
There is still no one to deal with the battle report at the border pass, and the three princes seem to deliberately want to put aside the affairs of the border pass.
Seeing that it is already autumn, if the soldiers at the border pass are hungry and unclothed, how can they fight? Aren't you going to die? Feng Lingxi was worried all day.
Until the price of food has been stirred up to a new high by her.
At this time, the grain in the entire capital has become extremely expensive, and even Feng Lingyu has hoarded a lot of grain by taking advantage of this shareholder wind, and is waiting for the price to be higher, so he throws the grain out so that he can make a lot of money.
Feng Lingxi reached the market price in the evening, and the current two prices are five times that of the past, if it climbs again, it is estimated that there will be no price in the market, and even the people will not be able to afford to eat food.
"Let's clear the warehouse one after another tonight, and fry the grain to this price." Feng Lingxi wrote down a number on a piece of rice paper, which was more than half the original market price.
Long Yi looked at such a small number, and couldn't believe it, will the almost sky-high price today really drop tomorrow?
"Go ahead and do it, it'll come down." Feng Lingxi squinted into the distance, this was a game in the air.
That night, batches of grain began to flow into the market, and some people even set up a roadside stall to sell rice directly on the roadside.
At first, some people found out that someone was selling rice so cheaply, and immediately thought, where did this big fool come from, and sold rice so cheaply, isn't this the same as picking it up for nothing?
Someone thought about it, bought a bag of rice and ran to the shop that had recently collected rice at a high price.
But when I arrived at the place, I saw a notice posted in front of the store that it was closed.
These people who want to speculate are dumbfounded.
In the end, all you have to do is carry the rice home.
The people who collect rice at high prices no longer accept rice, and the rice merchants who originally sold rice and tasted the sweetness have already rushed into a lot of rice grain from other places, and even their own warehouses are full and they have tried to rent some warehouses to come back to put rice grain.
Now almost every rice merchant can sell their stock until five years from now.
Of course, even if the rice grain is preserved, it can't be put down, and it will become old rice next year, and the taste will be worse, and it is estimated that it will not be able to sell it at that time!
A dry person is sad to death.
The price of rice grains is getting lower day by day.
In the end, it broke a new low, and it became the lowest rice price in a decade.
After Feng Lingxi saw that it was almost over, he took Long Yi to visit the merchants one by one, and promised to buy all their stored grain.
For a time, Feng Lingxi was there
In the eyes of the rice grain merchant, the image instantly brightened.
It was only when all the rice merchants in Kyoto signed an agreement with Feng Lingxi, and when the rice grain was loaded on the ship, everyone reacted, as if they had been tricked......
Including Feng Lingyu, it's just that she doesn't know it now, and the son who made her suffer a big loss is Feng Lingxi, who she hates the most in this life.
Just when Feng Lingxi was trying to raise grain and grass for the frontier, the soldiers in the frontier had already changed from dry rice to gruel.
Every time the battle horn sounded, the drums beat, and they rushed into battle to face the eagles, they felt their stomachs rumbling and shaking every time they ran.
I don't have the strength to run.
In the main tent of the barracks, Yan Yan was studying the sand table.
Liuyun entered the main tent with a solemn face, and whispered to Yan Yan: "Master, if you don't think about a way, the soldiers won't even be able to drink gruel in a few days." ”
Yan Yan tightened his long eyebrows, looked at the sand table, and nodded to a position and said to Liuyun: "Tonight, I will take people to attack here at night, and when I bring back the ten-day rations, you hurry up and urge it in Beijing." ”
Liuyun looked at the position Yan Yan pointed to on the sand table, his face changed greatly, and he asked in astonishment: "Master, this place is the enemy's small granary?" They value food more than their lives! There must be heavy guards, it's too dangerous. ”
"General Ben has made up his mind, you go and prepare." Yan Yan spoke to Liuyun in an unquestionable tone.
As soon as Liuyun heard that Yan Shizi even came out with the self-proclaimed title of 'General Ben', then this order was a military order.
He silently shut his mouth and went to help Yan Yan to transfer a quick march that could be fast, and immediately went to a rapid march with great kung fu.
That night, led by Yan Yan himself, cotton cloth was wrapped in the horse's hooves, and only a thousand men and horses quietly left the military camp of the Jokhang Kingdom and sneaked towards the chassis of the black eagle.
Along the way, the crowd was silent.
They all looked at the tall General Yan at the front of the team.
Although a thousand people went to a surprise attack and brought back grain and grass is a little unreliable, but inexplicably, after seeing that the person leading the team is General Yan, they are not very afraid.
"Stop." Yan Yan suddenly raised his hand and made a fist.
The hussars stopped and looked at their general.
"Do a good fight, there's a patrol coming." Yan Yan's voice was calm and steady, listening to everyone's ears, as if telling them that the person who sent the head is coming, don't panic, come and listen to my command, one, two, three.
Everyone was relieved to raise their hearts, listening to General Yan's command, and ambushed around in an orderly manner, waiting for the patrol team to enter their ambush circle.
A patrol team, about three or four hundred people, Yan Yan told his men that no one could be let go.
Otherwise, the news of their entry into the Black Falcon will leak out, and as long as a few teams are released from different places to outflank them, they will only be able to make dumplings.
The crowd was on standby.
The patrol came, and the group picked their teeth, mouthed meat, and grinned all the way closer and closer to them.
The content of the speech is also exceptionally clear.
"I really want to go to the Jokhang Kingdom to see the beauties there."
"Haven't you seen the city that was broken before?"
"What is this, I heard that the noble girl in Kyoto of the Jokhang Kingdom is enough to taste, the waist is as soft as aquatic plants, and people are like water, and the skin is whiter than milk......
"I heard that the other party has a General Yan, who is more beautiful than a woman, if you beat them first and arrest that General Yan, huh? Hahaha......"
