After staying until the evening, Yan Yunfei set off to return to the Shi family's mansion in White Horse Lane.

The house has been packed out, and the luggage has been put where it should be.

The people perform their duties, and the huge mansion is well organized and pleasant.

The steward came with a stack of invitations.

"When everyone learned that Mrs. had arrived in the capital, they sent invitations one after another. Madame do you want to see it? ”

"Show it to Mrs. Ben."

Yan Yunfei's temperament changed greatly at this time.

When she was in the county lord's mansion, she talked and laughed freely.

It's a good daughter, a good sister, talking and laughing, and having endless fun.

In the Shi family, she is Mrs. Hou, the housewife, and she is imposing.

Every move reveals the power of being a superior.

The steward handed over the invitation, and You Yawei took it and put it on the small table, and Yan Yunfei could hook it as soon as she stretched out her hand.

She flipped through a few random invitations, uninterested.

In the end, she picked out three of the dozens of invitations and threw them to the steward, "You go and arrange it!" The rest refused. ”

The steward received the order and bowed down!

Mama Cui was waiting by her side, "When does Madam plan to visit the Second Prince's Mansion?" Do slaves need to prepare in advance? ”

Yan Yunfei was closing her eyes to recuperate, "Give a post to the second prince's mansion, and the Japanese lady will visit her later." If it's convenient, I'll bring my fourth sister with me. ”

Mama Cui hesitated, "Is it appropriate to bring the four girls?" ”

Yan Yunfei didn't open her eyes, and said softly: "Nothing inappropriate!" Mrs. Ben just came to visit her relatives, not to find out His Royal Highness the Second Prince. I haven't seen my second sister for many years, she is about to give birth, and I am worried that it will be too late, how can I take care of the things on the side. ”

Madame has a point. I hope that Mrs. is a brother in this child. ”

Yan Yunfei stroked her abdomen, "If it's a brother, Mrs. Ben will have to plan." ”

Oh, yes!

The situation of the Shi family is so complicated, if she is not careful in planning, the children may not live to adulthood.

……

The weather was dry, and the second prince, Xiao Chengwen, fell ill and felt uncomfortable.

The imperial doctor is stationed in the Second Prince's Mansion and obeys orders at any time.

He was afraid that he would be sick to Yan Yunqi, so he didn't let Yan Yunqi get close, and only let his personal eunuch serve.

"Your Highness, drink some rock sugar pears to moisten your throat."

Fei Gonggong held a bowl of rock sugar pears, warm, just in time.

Xiao Chengwen's throat was dry and itchy, and this weather was very unfriendly to him.

He took the bowl of soup and drank half a bowl at a time, and refused to drink it again.

Father-in-law Fei also did not persuade him, because persuasion was useless.

He asked with concern, "Is Childe feeling better?" This is a recipe given by Madame, and it is said to work very well. ”

When Xiao Chengwen heard this, he laughed, "Madame's recipe? I'm afraid it's Yan Yunge's recipe. I don't know where she came up with so many ingredients, so many recipes, I heard that the business of the North and South Restaurants under her name is excellent? ”

"Business is good, the old slave went to taste it, compared to those century-old shops, it is not bad at all."

Xiao Chengwen laughed, "In any year, there is no shortage of rich people, and there is no shortage of people who are willing to spend money." ”

Grandpa Fei whispered: "The price of food has risen again. ”

Xiao Chengwen was indifferent.

Fei Gonggong continued, "I heard that many small rivers in the Gyeonggi area have been cut off. ”

Xiao Chengwen still didn't move.

Father-in-law Fei then asked directly: "Doesn't Your Highness plan to inquire about this matter?" ”

Xiao Chengwen shook his head, "Even if this son wants to inquire about this matter, it is not now." This son can't be the first bird, especially the first person to jump out and tell his father about the great drought in the world.

Do you know why there is no movement at all? Because most of the officials in the DPRK and China were looking forward to the drought, the families behind them could take this opportunity to buy land at a low price to expand the number of field slaves

Drought is a natural disaster for the people, and it is a rare opportunity for the family to get rich. Ben Gongzi jumped out at this time, which was tantamount to offending the officials of the Manchu court. ”

Hearing this, Gonggong Fei sighed.

He was born in a poor family, and because of natural disasters, his family was so poor that he couldn't open the pot, so he had to enter the palace and make a small yellow door.

Later, he was arranged to serve by His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and he gradually turned over, had his own property, and his family became rich because of him.

Occasionally, he still misses his time in his hometown.

He was well aware of what natural disasters meant to the people who depended on the sky for food.

It means survival, life and death, freedom......

Xiao Chengwen in turn comforted Father-in-law Fei, "You don't have to worry, there will be movement in the DPRK and China soon." His Highness can endure not making a sound, but others may not be able to bear it. ”

"Your Highness means the Third Highness?"

"It's not him! Yushitai has a few mallets, and he has the world in mind, and after learning the specific situation, he can't help it. ”

Gonggong Fei breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank God, I hope that the imperial court can take measures as soon as possible to organize the local government for disaster relief." ”

Xiao Chengwen shook his head, "Don't get your hopes up." The father and emperor ordered disaster relief, and the officials below would also disobey the law. If they don't force the people to rebel, they won't stop. ”

"Then kill a group of officials, if you don't believe it, you can't deter the world." Grandpa Fei roared angrily.

He doesn't hate corrupt officials, he only hates officials who disregard people's lives.

People are going to starve to death, and they are still thinking about fighting for power and profit, shouldn't these people be killed?

Xiao Chengwen laughed, "It's a pity that His Highness is not sitting in that position." The father had the courage to kill the princes and kings, and kill a few officials. But if he wants to kill hundreds, hundreds of officials in one go, he may not have the courage. ”

Fei Gonggong was speechless, like a deflated ball.

"Your Highness is right, the old slave was naΓ―ve for a while, and he almost missed His Highness's big event."

"It's okay!"

Xiao Chengwen asked Father-in-law Fei to put on the chessboard.

At this time, he was very interested in studying the new chess game.

Fei Gong's public security was quiet and did not say any more superfluous words.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Chengwen suddenly spoke, "Yan Yunge's Rich Villa should be able to accept a lot of bankrupt people. ”

Hey?

Grandpa Fei was a little confused.

Xiao Chengwen said again: "After several years of land reclamation, Fugui Villa has thousands of hectares of land. Coupled with Yan Yunge's good management, Fugui Villa is a cornucopia. The food in it can feed many people. ”

Gonggong Fei tried to ask, "Your Highness is fighting the idea of Fugui Villa?" Do you want to snatch Nirvana Villa? ”

Xiao Chengwen couldn't cry or laugh, "You let His Highness rob his sister-in-law's property, you are putting His Highness unjust." Besides, Yan Yunge's industry was built by her ability, not by encroaching on fertile land. You don't want to find a place to be strong, but you are eyeing the rich villa, which is inappropriate. Don't say anything more about such unrighteous acts. ”

The corners of Grandpa Fei's mouth twitched, "Yan Yunge also wants to make money, and it is impossible to feed the people for the court for free." ”

"That's the reason. But if the court gives her a sum of money and asks her to support people, do you think she will raise them? ”

Father-in-law Fei looked hesitant and didn't dare to be sure.

Xiao Chengwen continued: "Give money to the family, let the family support the good people who have lost their land, and at least ninety percent of them are greedy for ink. The rest of the ten percent will not fall into the hands of the people. It's different here to Yan Yunge, take the initiative to give her thirty percent of the profit, and the remaining seventy percent can basically fall into the hands of the landless people. ”

"Your Highness is sure? Isn't Yan Yunge greedy? ”

"She's greedy! She's more greedy than anyone else! However, she is principled and greedy. Her greed, not to plunder from others, but to create. What she's doing now, do you think it's just farming? Wrong! She's creating wealth! This is clearly different from other Maisons. Most of the families have obtained a lot of wealth through plundering and encroachment. Yan Yunge did the opposite, and His Royal Highness was very optimistic about her. ”

Xiao Chengwen had a gentle smile on his face, which was breathtakingly beautiful.

It's a pity that Yan Yunqi didn't see this face, she was raising a fetus and preparing for the upcoming production.

Gonggong Fei pondered and said: "Relying on Yan Yunge for disaster relief, I'm afraid the imperial court won't agree!" Your Majesty, there will also be worries. Moreover, Nirvana may not have that much food. ”

Xiao Chengwen shook his head slowly, "You underestimate Fugui Villa too much, and you underestimate Yan Yunge too much." Not to mention self-produced grain, since the beginning of the year, before many people have reacted, Yan Yunge began to buy old grain and hoard it on a large scale. As far as His Highness knows, the Shaofu, the household department, and the old grain of the major grain stores were almost swept away by Yan Yunge.

So much grain is piled up in the warehouse of Nirvana Villa. And to raise people, you don't need to eat and drink well, and you don't need to eat enough, just make sure you can survive. In this way, the grain can be sustained for a long time. ”

Gonggong Fei reminded: "It is useless for His Highness to be optimistic about Yan Yunge, it is only useful for His Majesty to approve of her, and for the courtiers to approve her." Moreover, the disaster relief plan proposed by His Royal Highness has never been done before, and I am afraid that he will not even be able to pass His Majesty's level. ”

Xiao Chengwen smiled and didn't care, "Your Highness is just talking casually, you don't have to take it seriously, and don't spread it out." His Royal Highness lives behind closed doors, and there is no need to worry about the ups and downs outside. ”

He doesn't worry about it, but others do.

The eldest prince Xiao Chengye was reminded by the strategists that he also noticed the drought in the world.

He roared urgently, wanting to get ahead of everyone and report the situation to his father.

Since he had a son, and his son was the eldest grandson of the emperor, the breath that he lacked in his heart was filled in an instant.

changed the style of retreating and restraining in the past, and became aggressive.

In his heart, he gave birth to the emperor's eldest grandson, and the position in the palace was no one else.

The strategists around him also agreed that he would take credit, establish an image of worrying about the country and the people, and leave a good impression in front of the emperor.

So, the eldest prince Xiao Chengye roared into the palace to earn performance.

In fact, Emperor Yongtai has long been reported about this year's drought.

Xiuyiwei and Jin Wuwei are not vegetarians.

It's just that Emperor Yongtai thought that the scope of drought was not large, just in the Gyeonggi area.

He thought that with the water conservancy situation in Gyeonggi, he should be able to ensure this year's grain production.

That is, outside of Gyeonggi, the emperor did not understand the situation at all.

He also thought that out of Gyeonggi, the wind and rain were smooth everywhere.

Until the eldest son Xiao Chengye entered the palace and told him that there was a great drought in the world, not Gyeonggi.

In addition, the water conservancy facilities in the Gyeonggi area have been in disrepair for many years, and many have been abandoned.

If you want to rely on the water conservancy facilities repaired by your ancestors for disaster relief, I am afraid that it is a dream.

Emperor Yongtai was furious!
