Feng Zhonghua took a sip of tea and waited for Zuo Shu'er to speak.

Zuo Shu'er said: "City Lord, I originally wanted to talk to you since then, but you have a lot of affairs, and you are often not in the house. ”

Feng Zhonghua sighed, raised his eyebrows and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"How does the city lord feel about the Red Flame Kingdom?"

"Prosperity, prosperity and strength, national peace and security, very good!"

"Then if there is an opportunity, you can let the city lord move from this border state to the Chiyan country for permanent residence, you are willing."

Feng Zhonghua sneered almost inaudibly, but on the surface, he pretended to be relaxed and teased: "The princess said this, does she want me to move the upper city of Minnan Sea to the Chiyan Country?" ”

Zuo Shu'er said with a smile: "The city lord said that he was joking, what the palace said was to let the Chiyan Kingdom and the upper city of the southern Fujian Sea become one." ”

Feng Zhonghua smiled and said, "How should the two become one?" ”

Zuo Shu'er said: "After helping the third brother ascend the throne as the emperor, I said to the third brother that the third brother will naturally not treat his sister's maiden family badly." ”

Feng Zhonghua smiled: "If we help the third prince ascend the throne, then what good will we have?" ”

Seeing that he did not immediately refuse, but was negotiating, Zuo Shu'er filled in a little confidence in her heart, and only looked at her and said: "In addition to the throne, we can give you whatever you want." ”

Under one man, above ten thousand, is a great temptation!

If you were someone else, I'm afraid you would have already been moved!

However, Feng Zhonghua was drinking tea expressionlessly, and he couldn't understand what he was thinking at all, Zuo Shu'er looked at him secretly for a long time, and saw that he was thoughtful, and his heart was shaken at this moment.

Could it be that he would refuse?

Without waiting for him to answer, Zuo Shu'er persuaded: "City Lord, now that we have become a family, if we don't help the third brother to win the emperor and let the prince take the lead, we may not have good fruits to eat, the prince is benevolent on the surface, but secretly he is ruthless, and he is more than ruthless, if he ascends the throne one day, he will definitely cut the grass and eradicate the roots of the third brother and the palace, and even harm the Feng family......"

Seeing that he still didn't speak, she said again: "Now, we can't tolerate indecision, we must go to the soup and fight for the head of the battle for the emperor!" ”

Feng Zhonghua's eyes were dark, but his eyes were lowered to make people look down on the emotions in his eyes, only to see him calmly pick up the jade cup, fill a cup of fragrant tea for himself, and slowly take a sip of tea, and then he said casually: "Listen to you say this, with the analysis of the current situation, our Feng family has to help if you don't help?" ”

Ginger is still old and spicy!

This style of Zhonghua is thoughtful, and he will not show his emotions on his face at all, so that Zuo Shu'er has no idea where to start.

Zuo Shu'er listened to him, then he breathed a sigh of relief and replied: "The stakes are very high, the city lord should think twice." ”

"What if I don't help?"

This question is like a temptation.

However, Zuo Shu'er didn't expect him to refuse! After all, nominally, the Feng family is her maiden family, and it is natural to help her brother win the emperor, and I never thought that he might refuse.

Well, if he really refuses......

Zuo Shu'er lowered her face, her beautiful eyes were half-squinted, but there was a trace of ruthlessness under her eyes, and the light flashed away, making it difficult to capture. I saw her smile and a charming face, and said, "The city lord thinks about it for a while, and there is no need to rush back to the palace." ”

Feng Zhonghua raised his eyebrows, snorted coldly in his heart, and said: "In this way, I won't stay longer, Yi'an has always loved purity in the mansion, and I don't like people to walk around at will in the Qiushui Pavilion, if the princess thinks this place is too clean, I will order someone to place you in the Fengjia Courtyard, where there are many maids and guards, you can call as you want, as for Yi'an......" After he glanced at the screen, he said: "I asked someone to invite Beichen Xing to check his pulse, he needs to recuperate, so I won't go to the other hospital with you." ”

After that, he didn't wait for Zuo Shu'er to return home, so he got up and withdrew.

Zuo Shu'er's beautiful face froze because of these words, and after a while, she was annoyed, she chased after her and asked, "City Lord, are you going to drive the palace away?" ”

"The princess thinks too much, Yi'an is a patient and needs to recuperate, if the princess doesn't want to go to another hospital to live, then she has to dismiss these subordinates...... I'm afraid that the princess is not used to it, and all the trivial things need to be done by herself. ”

"You!"

Zuo Shu'er felt humiliated like never before!

This is clearly refusing to help her third brother and forcibly knocking her out of the Feng family?!

Zuo Shu'er couldn't hold back her face: "City Lord, don't forget, I have the flesh and blood of the Feng family in my belly, you dare to treat this palace like this?" ”

Feng Zhonghua said: "Mistreatment? Where did I treat you badly, the princess can send someone to the other courtyard to see, the environment there is no worse than Qiushui Pavilion, okay, Yi'an needs to recuperate, you pack up your things and go over. ”

After that, he didn't want to talk to her more, so he turned around and brushed his sleeves away.

After he left, Zuo Shu'er ran angrily and shouted: "The city lord of a small country in Fanbang, when he is a great soil emperor, he is in such a situation, and he still refuses to stand in line, and he has to wait for the prince to destroy your Feng family before he is willing to take regret medicine, right?" ”

Hongmei stepped forward, followed Zuo Shu'er's back, and comforted: "Don't be angry, princess, the stakes are very high, and the city lord also needs time to think about it." ”

"He thinks about it, what does it mean to bang this palace and leave, and he wants to get rid of the relationship with this palace?"

"This ...... The slave maid will go to the other courtyard to have a look, if there is any mistreatment, the slave and maid will immediately tell Xu Guifei and the third prince! ”

"Don't go yet!"

Zuo Shu'er roared, and Hongmei hurriedly exited the room.

Zuo Shu's child was pacing back and forth in the room, this damn Feng family, how dare not help his third brother win the emperor?!

Is there in the brain!

I don't know how the third brother is doing to control the insect plague in Jinyang......

Jinyang

It was originally a beautiful place, but under the scourge of locusts, the rice fields, fruit trees, and all edible vegetables that houses walked were destroyed by it.

Nowadays, the grain that the people eat depends on the state treasury to open a warehouse, and the price of rice and grain from the state treasury is three times more expensive than the market price!

The people cursed and scolded the officials, but they had no choice but to take out their belongings in exchange for high-priced rice and grain!

These days, under the governance of the third prince Zuo Youci, the locusts were roughly exterminated, but the matter of high-priced rice and grain was complained to his ears by the people.

The third prince didn't think about it, so he went to the local county office, and after discussing with the prefect, he gave food free of charge.

On this day, people lined up in a long line to get rice one by one.

"Did you see it, that's the third prince."

"See, he looks tall and mighty, and he is really handsome."

"Some time ago, these officials colluded with the boss of the rice store to raise the price of rice, and some people risked their lives to complain, so that they had a good day to receive rice grain for free today."

"I heard that the emperor is old and is dying, although this throne is to be passed on to the crown prince, but I think these three princes are not bad, and in the end, they may be able to counterattack."

"Counterattack, you dare to talk nonsense about this kind of thing."

The crowd became quiet again after a while, people didn't dare to talk nonsense, and lined up to pick up the rice grain, and the third prince dug the rice grain with a spoon and poured it into the sack handed by the people, and asked carefully: "Is it enough?" ”

Flattered, the man said, "Enough is enough." ”

On the side, the master of the yamen recorded the name and said, "Next!" ”

"Thank you, Third Prince, you are so good."

The third prince smiled heartily, and immediately received a large number of people's favor: "This king should be, is it enough?" ”

The man smiled and said, "Enough is enough!" ”

"These three princes are really good......"

Everyone praised this polite and approachable third prince.

On the other hand, Jingzhou, which was plagued by floods, was also very satisfied with this high-ranking prince, but who gave up for the lives of the people.

After the flood washed away, the people's houses were seriously damaged, and after the rain stopped, the flood gradually receded, and the people returned to their houses from the high point of resettlement and began to rebuild their homes.

On the other hand, Feng Yi'an, who was sent to deal with the plague, did not have a good life!

Unlike Jingzhou and Jinyang, which are convenient to control in the same area, the plague spreads in various villages and is difficult to control. The plague in this village has been controlled, and some people have started to attack again, and as soon as someone has the plague, people will begin to panic, and there are even some small traders who spread rumors and take the opportunity to resell some unscrupulous products to obtain high profits!

So, Feng Yi'an made an amazing decision!

Lockdown!

As soon as this news came out, there were all kinds of boycotts.

The common people, the merchants who do business, all say that this second prince is crazy!

He dared to lock down all villages and cities, forbidding everyone from entering and leaving until the plague was under control.

The boycott was too strong, and some people even gathered to make trouble in front of the yamen, and the county magistrate was afraid that the matter would make a big fuss, so he hurriedly wrote an excerpt, and asked someone to hand it to the palace and present it to the emperor.

At that time, the emperor was reviewing the recitals, and Jingzhou's recitals made him very satisfied, and Jinyang's recitals also made him nod with satisfaction, and he was very pleased.

However, in the third book, the recitals sent by many provinces made him stand up from the dragon chair in shock.

"This second brother, confused!"

At that time, Hua Guifei was holding the bird's nest, walking slowly in front of the emperor with small steps, and said: "What's wrong with the emperor, don't be angry, come and drink some bird's nest to suppress the shock!" ”

The emperor sat back on the dragon chair, pointed to the fold on the table and said: "I asked the second child to deal with the plague, he is good, he dared to seal the city, doesn't this make the people disrupt?" ”

"Your Majesty, sue your concubines and be courageous, although the second prince is amorous and carefree every day, but the plague is not a trivial matter, and he will treat it with caution, the emperor should treat it equally, maybe the second prince is seriously managing the epidemic."

"Serious governance?" The Emperor snorted coldly, "Why do I think he's messing around?" ”

Hua Guifei said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you see, this epidemic has spread to many places, this side has been cured, that side has started to attack again, there is no time to rectify it, and the place that has just been cured has rebounded again, so if you think about it, this city closure may not be the best policy!" ”

Hearing such a power from Concubine Hua, the emperor calmed down and thought seriously.

He was really anxious, for fear that the plague would cause chaos in the hearts of the people and cause unnecessary trouble, so he had a bad opinion of the second prince.

In this way, if the plague is to be completely cured, the only way to do it is to lock down the town!

Thinking so, the emperor also breathed a sigh of relief, so he exchanged for a eunuch and ordered: "These few twists and turns are all speeches to boycott the second prince, but in my opinion, the second prince's move can be understood, you issued a holy decree according to my decree to help the second prince control the plague quickly." ”

"Yes, the minion will go and prepare."

So, the emperor dictated some words to the eunuch, and after the eunuch finished writing, he respectfully put away the pen and ink and retreated.

"Your Majesty, the bird's nest is cold, and the concubine will bring it back to you as hot as it is hot."

"Not necessarily."

The emperor put the fold away, took Concubine Hua's hand, and said with an evil smile: "Tonight, Concubine Hua Guifei will sleep here with me." ”

Hua Guifei's face turned red, and she walked hand in hand with the emperor behind the screen, and said, "The concubine undresses the emperor." ”

After that, the skilled emperor took off his dragon robe, hung the dragon robe on a hanger on one side, and took off the emperor's middle coat and slept on the bed with the emperor to lie down.

The emperor was old and had long been unable to do anything, he hugged Concubine Hua, and his face full of vicissitudes showed some tiredness.

"Hua'er, ......"

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

"The official duties in this court are heavy, and I am getting older and older, and I am a little overwhelmed...... Perhaps, I should abdicate. ”

Hua Guifei chuckled: "If the emperor abdicates, it will be the emperor, if the emperor does not want to manage the affairs of the court, then the concubine will take the emperor to play in the mountains and rivers, return to the mountains, and be at ease." ”

Only after the death of the first empress, Concubine Hua Guifei was the emperor's most favored concubine.

When the emperor heard him say this, he had an incomparable yearning for the world outside the palace in his mind, and his tired face instantly became much gentler.

He hugged Concubine Hua and said warmly: "Sleep......"

When they returned, he also wanted to go out of the palace to see the outside world......
