"I'm really sorry, let Master Liu see the joke, please come to the house."

The prefect wiped the tears that overflowed from the corners of his eyes, and then hurriedly smiled awkwardly, Liu Shoucai followed the prefect into the house, and talked about the purpose of his coming here.

"Lord Prefect, I came here to find you to do you a favor, seeing that the drought has been a month, so I want to ask the Lord Prefect to open a warehouse and release grain, now there are more and more people fleeing in the city, I really don't want the town you manage to become an empty city, a dead city."

"I've also thought about this matter, but there isn't much grain in the granary at all, and the imperial court hasn't sent grain yet, even if the warehouse is opened, there is no grain, and it will be opened in vain."

The prefect felt deeply sorry, Liu Shoucai was shocked, he didn't expect that there was no grain in the granary of the prefect and county government, it seems that this matter is really not easy to do!

"Then hurry up and report to the court! You can't just keep it going, can you? ”

"What Master Liu said is, I wasn't confused before! I didn't think of going there at all, now I'm just sober, this house hasn't been smoothed out yet, I'll go write a piece of music first, but I'm afraid that this will be written in vain, you have also seen our emperor, do you think the emperor will let people send rice and grain? ”

The prefect's question made Liu Shoucai a little embarrassed, too, the emperor is not a good person, how can he sympathize with the suffering of the people? But now he doesn't have any good way, can't he ask him to personally force the emperor to distribute food? That's just a fantasy.

"If you don't think about what to do tonight, I'll go back and let Badou and Xiaobai think of a way together, this drought has not rained, and the people have no food, you can't just forget it, you write a fold first, if the court doesn't distribute rice and grain, then we will go to meet the emperor together, I don't believe it, he really dares to force the people to rebel together."

Liu Shoucai's eyes gave up the cold light, and the prefect who saw it was shocked, he quickly nodded and agreed, and after discussing with the prefect, Liu Shoucai also went home, and the prefect looked at Liu Shoucai's decisive and resolute back, and was very helpless, so he sighed deeply.

As soon as Liu Shoucai came back, he pulled Badou and Xiaobai to the room, "Discuss something with the two of you, something very important, so I need the support of the two of you, and it is invalid to oppose it." ”

"What's the matter? Let's start with that. ”

Xiaobai is smart, it doesn't want to dig a big hole for itself, and then bury itself, Badou also nodded, he has never been stupid, he doesn't ask clearly, and he doesn't have a bottom in his heart.

"That's the case, you also know that it's been a month of drought now, and many people have no food to eat, I just went to the prefect county ya, who knows that the county government granary has no food, so I discussed it with the prefect and asked him to write a song to the emperor, if the emperor doesn't distribute rice and grain, I plan to go to the palace to make a mess, so I need the help of the two of you."

"Liu Shoucai, can you not be so pitiful, every time we make the two of us very passive, I am really angry, do you really think that the palace is so easy to break into? After the last incident, do you think that stupid emperor has nothing to do? Don't forget, we have a powerful opponent with unknown powers. ”

After Xiaobai roared out, Liu Shoucai also remembered the black hand, but he couldn't keep watching the people displaced! And Liu Shoucai's own food is not much, and now the price of food outside is so high, he can't afford it, even if it's not for others, it's for himself.

"Xiaobai, you should know that we don't have much food at home, and the price of food outside is so high now, do you think we can afford it? Even if it's not for others, it's for ourselves! ”

"Why don't we go to the palace and grab food?"

Badou suddenly came to such a thunderous sentence, Liu Shoucai and Xiaobai immediately widened their eyes in shock, how could Badou, who has always looked honest, have such an idea? It's incredible, if it weren't for Badou's always being normal, Liu Shoucai would really think that he was evil.

"Hachidou, how could you have such an idea? Awesome, you cow! ”

"I've also obeyed you, is this still the honest guy I once knew?"

"Actually, I have had a dream since I was a child, that is, to be a bandit, I feel that bandit road rage is really domineering and very bullish, but it is too dangerous to do that kind of industry in modern times, and now we have finally come to ancient times, how can you be worthy of your dreams if you don't play, don't you say?"

"But there seems to be some difference between a bandit and a robber! And we're going to the palace, you're guts enough! Even dare to rob the emperor's things, aren't you afraid that the emperor will find someone to kill you? ”

"You have the ability to let him come! I'd like to see if I'm good, or if I'm the big inner guards in the palace. ”

Badou said that he took out his big knife and played a tiger and a tiger, Liu Shoucai and Xiaobai glanced at each other, and the two also nodded, it seems that everyone agrees with Badou's idea, in fact, Liu Shoucai and Xiaobai are also very interested in the profession of bandit road rage.

"Since everyone agrees, let's say so, tomorrow we will go to the palace to have fun, if the emperor is really a dime, then don't blame us for stealing him and not even finding his underwear."

"Ahem, okay, since everyone has no objections, then let's prepare first, and we'll set off together tomorrow, of course, we can't miss him on the prefect's side, lest he think we are not sincere and don't treat him as a friend."

Liu Shoucai's words are very far-fetched, but Xiaobai and Badou don't care, anyway, it's not just the two of them who are pitting, there are more people and it is lively, and they will also feel psychologically balanced.

Early the next morning, Liu Shoucai Badou and Xiaobai arrived at the door of the prefect's house together, and the old one and their Xiaobai had already informed them to rest at home and go to the palace to steal food.

"Yo, Master Liu, why did you come here early in the morning? I've already written a note about yesterday's incident, and I'm waiting for the emperor's approval now, but I don't think it's very likely, so we still have to think of something else. ”

"Lord Prefect, we have already figured out a way, so now we are taking you into the palace to face the saint."

"Enter the palace to face the saint? But we can't enter the palace at will without being called, and we don't have a token to enter the palace! How to get in? ”

The prefect was confused, and he didn't know what Liu Shoucai meant, but looking at the excited expressions on each of their faces, the prefect felt trembling in his heart, could it be that they wanted to do something strange? The prefect felt that he was in tears, and he was so passive every time.

"That's right, we're going to go to the palace to steal ...... Oh, bring some food back, anyway, there is so much food in the palace, and the emperor can't eat it alone, rather than putting it in the palace to get moldy, it's better to cheapen us, don't you say? ”

"This, this, this...... You guys...... Alas! I really don't know what to say about you. ”

The prefect was in a cold sweat, he knew that these people would not have any good ideas, and they even hit all the ideas in the palace, and they wanted to go to the palace to steal food, who allowed them to be fat?

"Why don't we think of another way, so be it! We went to the rich people's houses to collect food, maybe the emperor will do his best to distribute the grain after seeing the folds, let's wait first, okay? ”

Although the prefect can't get used to the emperor's actions, as a courtier, he can't mess around! Last time, it was the emperor's righteousness and did not condemn him, but now if he really goes to the palace to steal food with Liu Shoucai and them, it is estimated that the emperor will really be connected to the nine clans.

"Lord Prefect, you just said that the emperor will not necessarily distribute food, instead of wasting time here and watching so many people starve to death, it is better to break through, you are afraid of wolves and tigers, what other great things can you do? Besides, the people are starving to death, can you, the prefect, continue to do it? ”

"But you can't steal it! This is the behavior of a thief, as a prefect, knowing the law and breaking the law, how will he manage the people in the future? No, I won't agree with your stealing. ”

The prefect has a tendon, no matter how he says it, Liu Shoucai and Badou are too lazy to talk to the prefect, and directly pull him by the collar and take him to the carriage, since it doesn't make sense, then it is good to use practical actions directly, anyway, the prefect can't be missing.

"You guys are too much, how can you make sense, let me go quickly."

"Lord Prefect, you first calm down, if you don't want to go, then I will go and recruit those people to go together, I don't believe it, they are all about to starve to death, and they don't dare to take out the courage to fight, if we don't fight, we won't get anything, if we fight, we still have a little hope, Lord Prefect, where did all your courage go?" For the sake of the people of the world, aren't you willing to fight for them? ”

"Yes, Lord Prefect, I believe that your people will be proud, no one will look down on you, and no one will blame you for this, believe us, we have all calculated, this time we will gain a lot."

Xiaobai and Liu Shoucai have been doing ideological work for the prefect, and the prefect saw that there was no way back, so he could only nod aggrievedly and agree, he now really regretted being friends with Liu Shoucai and them, they were all guys who didn't pay for their lives, and the prefect immediately burst into tears.

"The prefect is so excited, I know that you will definitely agree, Hachidou, speed up, let's go all out towards the palace."

After the prefect was settled, Liu Shoucai and Xiaobai had nothing to worry about, Badou also sped up the speed of the carriage, in the afternoon, a few of them arrived outside the palace, Liu Shoucai directly entered the palace in a ghostly way, although the prefect was very scared, but it had come to this point, and he had no reason to retreat.

"Lord Prefect, I already told you just now, wait for you to meet the emperor with me, Badou and Xiaobai took the Qiankun bag to the granary of the palace to steal grain, remember, don't attract the attention of others, we will meet outside the palace in an hour."

"Okay, let's get started! Everyone is careful. ”

After assigning the task, Liu Shoucai went to meet the emperor with the prefect, Badou took Xiaobai to the granary to steal grain, the palace was shining with everyone's eyes as always, Liu Shoucai was speechless to the extreme, when was it, and he didn't forget the luxury, it was really infuriating.

"Lord Prefect, what to say later, what not to say, you have to think clearly, me and Badou are not afraid of being caught anyway, you have nine clans, so you must pay attention when you speak."

"That's natural, I know what to say."

The prefect wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, this time he was really killed by Liu Shoucai and them, but for the sake of his own people and the people, he also let it go, anyway, the emperor was also a faint monarch, and he wasted so much food in vain, and the prefect was also distressed.

Liu Shoucai took out a token and handed it to the guards guarding the study, and the guards immediately went in to tell the emperor, this token was taken by Liu Shoucai when he went out last time, but he didn't expect it to be used this time, and Liu Shoucai also inquired, and the emperor was in the study at this time.

The prefect's legs had already begun to tremble, Liu Shoucai immediately injected some spiritual power into the prefect's body, the prefect felt comfortable for a while, his legs stopped trembling, and the guards also came out at this time.

"Your Majesty, please meet the prefect and Master Liu."

The guards were very respectful, and Liu Shoucai also knew why this guard treated him like this, the last time he showed that hand, Liu Shoucai was very confident, and those guards had already regarded Liu Shoucai as a god-like figure.

After entering the upper study, Liu Shoucai and the prefect saw that the emperor was sitting on the chair above to watch the recital, and when he saw Liu Shoucai and the prefect coming in, the emperor immediately put down the recital in his hand.

"Hey, why is Master Liu here? What a rarity! Hurry up and serve tea to Master Liu, and sit down with the prefect! ”

The emperor is very polite to Liu Shoucai, what if he is not polite? The emperor also knew that Liu Shoucai was his plague god, and if he didn't send Liu Shoucai away, it was only he who suffered, and he didn't dare to provoke the prefect now, who knows if Liu Shoucai would embarrass himself for the prefect.

And the emperor is not stupid, he sees the achievements made by the prefect, so he is not embarrassed by the prefect, now he is facing the problem of drought, and the emperor also knows what they are here for, because the emperor has already seen the prefect's recital.

"Your Majesty, I believe you are also clear about the purpose of our coming here, this drought, many people have been displaced, and the food in the prefect and county government is not enough, so we came this time to let the emperor distribute rice and grain for disaster relief, I don't know if the emperor has anything to say?"

Liu Shoucai said and threw a threatening look at the emperor, as long as the emperor dared to refuse, then Liu Shoucai would not let the emperor have a good time.

After seeing Liu Shoucai's threatening eyes, the emperor felt bitter in his heart, he thought that he had not offended Liu Shoucai, why did Liu Shoucai always not let go of himself? It seems that he, the emperor, is really hard enough.

"Master Liu, let's do it! I'll distribute some rice grain to you to help the people, but there is not a lot of rice in the palace, I plan to let people make up food, and when the food is ready, I will let people distribute it, what do you think? ”

In front of Liu Shoucai, the emperor didn't even dare to say the word "I", he always used the word "I", Liu Shoucai was very satisfied with the emperor's attitude, but he was not satisfied with the emperor's perfunctory words.

"Your Majesty, we don't talk darkly, I know very well how much food is in the palace, otherwise, you take a month's worth of food first, and then you let people make up for the later food, anyway, those ministers under your command are very rich, and I believe that the emperor will not be short of food."

"This ...... It's not good! Those ministers are all iron roosters who don't pluck a dime, Master Liu, aren't you embarrassing me? And there is really not much food in the palace, not enough for a month's rations for those disaster victims, it can only last for seven days at most, and if it is more, I really don't have it. ”

The emperor also insisted on whether it was a bite, and when Liu Shoucai came, he also knew that the emperor would definitely not give more food, so he asked Badou and Xiaobai to steal food with the Qiankun bag, the space in the Qiankun bag was very large, and it was a treasure that could accommodate the rations of the victims for a year.

Now that the emperor said that he would give seven days of rations, Liu Shoucai naturally would not refuse, anyway, he would not dislike it if there was more food, but when the time came, he could still take out the excess grain and sell it for money, anyway, it was not his own, and he could make money selling it expensively.

"It's okay, since the emperor is also so poor, I won't take the opportunity to rob, your majesty, then you should quickly send someone to distribute food! Those victims can't wait, we will wait for the emperor's food rescue in the hardest-hit areas. ”

"That's natural, I will definitely do my best to send people to distribute food to you, after all, those victims are also my people, and it is naturally impossible for me to watch them all starve to death."

The emperor laughed embarrassedly twice, seeing that the emperor was smiling and not smiling, Liu Shoucai was not in the mood to continue to talk to him, so he stood up and said goodbye to the emperor.

"Since the food matter has been resolved, then I will go back with the prefect first, after all, the prefect is also very busy, and I also have to go to see the situation of the victims, and the emperor must be very busy, so we won't bother."

"Won't Master Liu and the prefect stay for a meal before leaving? I'm so embarrassed to leave like this. ”

"Next time! Next time we come again, it's not too late to eat, it's an extraordinary time, your lord, you're busy! Let's go first and take our leave. ”

Liu Shoucai didn't give the emperor a chance to talk to the prefect, and walked directly outside, the emperor saw that Liu Shoucai and they were finally sent away, and his heart was a lot more relaxed, although he lost seven days of food this time, but it was only a rarity, so he wouldn't care about such a little ration.

As for the food in the later period, the emperor also has an idea in his heart, anyway, there is a lot of food in those ministers' families, and it is enough to levy some casually, and looking at the weather, it should be going down soon, the emperor has already asked Qin Tian to supervise it yesterday, and in half a month, there will be a heavy rain.
