The little emperor didn't know that Ye Shaolong had already calculated that he would come to ask for food, and with adequate preparations, Ye Shaolong would naturally be as generous as he could. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The little emperor, who is not suspicious of fraud, is still very moved by this, and he also understands that people who are willing to give food to themselves at this time have true love for themselves.

And Ye Shaolong's generosity was beyond his expectations, and he thought that he would pass the buck in every possible way. That's what happened just now when he didn't hesitate to make his face and beat people up.

I didn't expect Ye Shaolong to be so straightforward, it seems that the punch just now was in vain. However, the little emperor didn't have any emotions, and still happily followed Ye Shaolong to the granary to see the grain.

The little emperor also knew about the granary of Yejiabao, so when he saw Steward Zhao open the granary, there were less than a thousand loads of grain left inside.

He didn't suspect that Ye Shaolong did it, but asked in surprise: "Why is there only such a little food, when I came to see it a month ago, it wasn't like this!" ”

Ye Shaolong squeezed out a bitter gourd face, sighed and said: "Your Majesty, it's already good that Yejiabao can have this little bit of food left, but now the army is in chaos, and the grain is decreasing or not increasing." Yejiabao can only be self-sufficient now, and he can't buy food outside at all. ”

The little emperor frowned, still incredulous: "That's not right! With the size of this granary, it can hold 20,000 loads of grain. A month ago, I saw that this granary was full, how could it be possible to consume so much grain in less than a month? ”

Obviously, Ye Shaolong has gone too far, and even the little emperor can see that something is wrong at a glance.

Ye Shaolong was unlucky, he didn't expect that the little emperor would come to see Yejiabao's granary, isn't this an egg pain?

Knowing that the little emperor had already seen the granary, he didn't dare to get such a little grain left. Now it's okay, I can't find a good excuse to explain to the little emperor.

When Ye Shaolong was in a dilemma, Steward Zhao stood up and relieved Ye Shaolong: "Your Majesty, this granary was indeed full a month ago, that's right." But this granary is not owned by the Ye family, and half of it is owned by the master of Tangshan. And there is not so much grain in this granary, and when the warehouse is full, it can only hold more than 10,000 loads. ”

Steward Zhao came out to speak, this credibility is obviously higher than Ye Shaolong, and the little emperor also understands the situation of Ye Jiabao. This Yejiabao was indeed made by the Ye and Tang families, and there is no problem to say that this granary belongs to the two families.

But the little emperor was still puzzled, even if the grain stored in this granary was really not as much as he estimated, it would be more than 10,000 loads. At present, there are only about 1,000 quintals, and the Ye Tang family and 3,000 soldiers actually have to eat about 9,000 quintals of grain within a month, and the little emperor will not believe it.

"Even so, but your two families and those three thousand guards can't eat so much food? You explained to me where the rest of the food went? The little emperor gradually realized that something was wrong, and his tone gradually became a lot heavier.

I saw that Steward Zhao was not in a hurry, and replied: "Your Majesty, if this food is only used by your own family, it will definitely not be able to be used so quickly." But you should also know that since the capital fell into the hands of foreigners, there have been many refugees who have fled. Our Yejiabao currently has a population of only 10,000, and there are still some fields left, so it is inevitable to recruit more displaced people. ”

Steward Zhao paused for a moment, and then said: "Also, the emperor may have undercounted the more than 3,000 people of the beggar gang, and now he is also relying on Yejiabao for supplies." These bits and pieces add up, and it is really not much to use up 9,000 to load food. ”

Listening to Steward Zhao's words, Ye Shaolong couldn't help the ecstasy in his heart, he knew that the little emperor had nothing to say anymore.

Sure enough, the little emperor's face was blue, although he was very unwilling, but the facts were in front of him, and he couldn't believe it.

Ye Shaolong once again pretended to have a bitter gourd face, and said helplessly: "Your Majesty, there is only so much food left now, if you are too little, then I will keep it myself." ”

Although the little emperor still had doubts, he was suffering from no evidence, no matter how small the mosquito legs were, they were still meat, so don't let them be in vain, so he asked Ye Shaolong to help arrange the loading.

Ye Shaolong didn't dare to stimulate the little emperor anymore, so he asked Steward Zhao to arrange it.

The little emperor turned around and left the granary and walked towards the academy, Ye Shaolong was one step behind and followed closely behind. Along the way, the little emperor's face was gloomy and uncertain, and he seemed to be quite fluctuating in his heart.

Seeing this, Ye Shaolong didn't dare to disturb at will, and followed behind him silently with his head down. When he arrived at the foot of the back mountain, the little emperor finally couldn't hold back and said, "Ye Shaolong, do you have a way to help me get some more food?" ”

Hearing this, Ye Shaolong shook his head again and again: "Your Majesty, now that you kill me, you won't be able to get food!" ”

"If there is no food, the nearly 100,000 people in the capital will inevitably make trouble, and they are all my people of the Qing Dynasty. I'm not fighting or killing, what do you say? The little emperor's eyes turned red again.

Ye Shaolong also fell silent for a while, in fact, the best solution at the moment is for the little emperor to leave the capital again, and simply leave it alone.

But Ye Shaolong must not be able to say this, the little emperor can only go back with great difficulty, and he must not be willing to give up like this.

After thinking for a long time, Ye Shaolong spoke: "Your Majesty, according to the current situation, I am afraid that you will not be able to stay in this capital. ”

Without waiting for the little emperor to distinguish, Ye Shaolong immediately said: "The capital has been ransacked by foreign troops, and it is not easy to take care of these nearly 100,000 people suddenly." If you can, I advise you to stay in Yejiabao for the time being, and it's not too late to stay for a while. ”

"I'm not reconciled!" The little emperor suddenly let out a long sigh, as if he had aged more than ten years in an instant.

Ye Shaolong no longer answered, that's all he could help, and the decision to make next was all up to the little emperor to choose, and he couldn't do anything about it.

The little emperor also seemed to know that Ye Shaolong was powerless, so he didn't force him anymore. Instead, he turned around and left silently, took the guards who followed, and escorted the thousand loads of grain back to the capital in a hurry.

When the little emperor left, Su Can appeared, and on the gatehouse of Yejiabao, he looked at the lonely back of the little emperor leaving. I felt a burst of sadness in my heart for no reason.

"Da Qing is really going to die!" With a light sigh, he directly expressed the pain in Su Can's heart at the moment.

Ye Shaolong was by his side at the moment, and when he heard this, he shook his head and said, "The Qing Dynasty is actually dead a long time ago, but you still don't admit it." ”

Su Can glanced back at Ye Shaolong, didn't say anything, turned around and left alone.
