Chapter 379: Go and borrow food

Earlier, Xie Chengli had already discussed with Yan Feifei the person of Prince Rong, and the grievances between him and the former emperor also caused him to never enter Kyoto for more than ten years, even if it was a festival, he only sent someone to send congratulatory gifts, and the relationship with the royal family can be said to have dropped to the freezing point, such a person, is he really willing to borrow food?

Zhang Zuo has dealt with Prince Rong, and he said: "Your Majesty, although Prince Rong looks kind, I always feel that the smile on his face never reaches his heart, and there is a fake appearance everywhere. ”

Lu Yunfei, Xie Chengli and others have not been in contact with Prince Rong, and their evaluation of Zhang Zuo cannot be denied.

But there is no better way to do it.

Yan Feifei pondered for a while, and then said: "I will think about this matter again, it's not too early, you can go back first, Taifu Xie stays." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After everyone left, Xie Chengli asked, "Fei'er, leave me down, but I have something important to discuss." ”

Yan Feifei pinched his eyebrows tiredly, and finally showed a smile and said, "It is true that I have something to discuss with you, but people are iron and steel, and I am a little hungry, let's continue to discuss after eating something." ”

"Okay." Xie Chengli showed a helpless and doting smile.

In recent days, Yan Feifei's appetite has not been very good, and the imperial dining room has prepared some light ingredients, but the chef's skills are still very good, and Yan Feifei has a great appetite and eats a little more than usual.

"Fei'er, you've already figured out what to do?"

Yan Feifei hurriedly swallowed the last bite and nodded, "That's right, I've thought about it for a long time, going to find Prince Rong to borrow grain is the best way now, I must go, but who to send is another question, the person who goes must have the ability to come to this grain, and I can't tear my face with Lord Rong, I want to come and think about it, this person is only Master you." ”

When Yan Feifei said this, his eyebrows and eyes were full of reluctance.

This time I went to Jiangnan to borrow grain, at least half a month, at most a month or two, and it is unknown whether I can come back before the New Year.

I don't often see each other on weekdays, and I have to go for so long, how can Yan Feifei be willing to do it?

Xie Chengli, why not?

However, now is an extraordinary moment after all, in the face of family and national affairs, their children's private affairs have to be put aside, not to mention, in addition to borrowing grain, he has more important things to do when he goes to Jiangnan this time.

Some time ago, in the case of Yaoshan, he felt that things were a little strange, and all the clues pointed directly to Prince Rong, but he had no evidence, and this time he went to Jiangnan, Xie Chengli just took the opportunity to find out the truth of the other party.

If it wasn't done by Prince Rong, it would just be able to dispel his concerns, but if it was really him, then you should take precautions in advance, this person is not good.

"Fei'er, I have to go this time."

Yan Feifei nodded, "I know, I have even asked Zhang Jiang to prepare, as soon as Master eats, Master, you will leave tomorrow and come back early, I still want to spend the New Year with you." ”

The last sentence had a slightly coquettish tone, but it melted Xie Chengli's heart.

He stepped forward, gently took Yan Feifei in his arms, and lightly touched her forehead, "Don't worry, this time I won't act as easily as last time, this time, it's still mainly to explore, by the way, since the New Year is coming, it's time to prepare." ”

Dayan's New Year is a very important festival, and in previous years, preparations were started two months in advance.

"Well, don't worry, I know all these things in Kyoto."

"By the way, and Sun Tong may have a big move recently, in addition to Concubine De in the palace, Chen Jieyu is also his person, who will he let do it, we don't know, we have to take more precautions against these two people, wait for me to come back."

"yes, okay."

Yan Feifei buried his face in Xie Chengli's arms, and his voice was full of crying in his answer.

She'll wait for him to come back, though.

The next day, Yan Feifei symbolically raised this question in the early dynasty and asked the opinions of the ministers, in addition to saying that grain was transported from Kyoto, and even more, let Yan Feifei spend money to buy grain from the Southern Tang Dynasty!

Yan Feifei wrinkled his eyebrows and glared, "Spend money to buy food? You have a good idea, who in this world does not know that the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty are the most profiteers, and it costs three or even four times the price to buy grain from him, and now, if we ask him, they will intensify and raise the price, so who is going to pay for this money, is it you? ”

The minister who made this suggestion was scolded and kept shrinking his head and did not dare to speak.

Yan Feifei waved his hand at them in disappointment, "Okay, I don't expect to get any useful ideas from your mouths, I have already decided, send Taifu Xie to Jiangnan to borrow grain from Prince Rong, this matter is so decided, retreat from the dynasty." ”

Yan Feifei didn't give them the slightest chance to refute, leaving these ministers in place.

Xie Chengli had already set off in the afternoon of the same day, and in order to prepare for the accident, Lu Yunfei also set off from Kyoto with a batch of grain and grass and went directly to Pingzhou County.

And as soon as Xie Chengli left, Sun Tong's people naturally couldn't hold back.

"Good opportunity! Yan Feifei, no one protects you this time, I want to see how you escape! Sun Yu, I didn't punish you for failing in your mission last time, and you can't let me down again this time. Sun Tong patted Steward Sun's shoulder and said.

Sun Yu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly nodded in response: "Master, don't worry, if I fail again this time, I will definitely raise my head to see you!" ”

Sun Yu also had a bitterness in his heart and couldn't say it, the failure of the last mission was not only his reason, if it weren't for that Xiang Long who didn't listen to him and was unwilling to use poison on the knife, that Xie Dong would have already become a ghost under his knife.

It's just a pity that Xiang Long is also missing now, if he tells Sun Tong the facts, Sun Tong probably won't believe himself, he will only feel that he is shirking responsibility, and in desperation, Sun Yu has no choice but to hold it in his heart.

"By the way, don't tell Zhiruo about this matter for the time being."

"Miss? Master, are you suspicious of her? But haven't we tried it many times, Miss Zhiruo, and there doesn't seem to be anything suspicious. ”

"There is nothing suspicious, it doesn't mean that she is not suspicious, we must not relax now, I don't trust anyone now, I only trust you, Sun Yu, we can be regarded as giving it a go this time! If we fail, I'm afraid we won't have time to turn around. ”

"My subordinates understand!"

The next day, Sun Yu went to Kyoto with the miraculous medicine he bought from the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
