Li Dan shook his head and stared at the musician who had just finished playing a song, and just came back to his senses, and asked with a puzzled face: "This drought is reported every year, and I am alone in the Daming Palace, and I hear this matter from time to time, is the drought here really so serious?" As he spoke, he pulled You'an over and sat in front of him around her, ignoring the light in her eyes, which was about to poke a few holes in him.

Su Liangqian and the staff behind him quietly exchanged glances. The Eighth Prince rarely appeared in front of people, and even the spies he deliberately placed in Beijing to inquire about the preferences of the nobles couldn't tell him anything. Now it seems that he is just a gentleman who only knows how to talk rhetoric.

Despite this, he still didn't dare to slack off, and replied after thinking carefully: "This place, it is indeed ten years and nine famines, don't hide it from Your Highness, since I have done this thorn history, most of the annual Yulu has to be pasted back, like this soup kitchen, I also paid for it myself, and the rich families in the city have already donated rice and grain, so it's not good to let them donate money again." ”

You'an clenched her fists when she heard this, she was mixed in with a few girls who had sold themselves into slavery, and she had already inquired about the situation in Luozhou in the past few days. It is true that there are nine famines in this place in ten years, but the DPRK and the central government will allocate money every year, in the early years to build water canals, and later to provide relief to the victims, and a lot of money has been spent like a bottomless pit, but it has never been effective.

Mingli blamed the natural disaster, but in fact, those silver coins, rice and grains were used by those officials to fill their own pockets.

Su Liangqian's inverted triangular eyes narrowed slightly, and suddenly said to Li Dan mysteriously: "But Your Highness probably doesn't know that there is a saying circulating in this area in recent years, saying that the drought is actually a warning from the heavens. ”

"Really?" Li Dan seemed to suddenly lift his spirits, leaned forward and asked, "Let's hear it." ”

"I also heard recently that there was a female official who served close to the queen of heaven before yesterday and destroyed the holy relics that prophesied the fortune of the country," Su Liangqian saw that Li Dan was interested, and said more and more vividly, "In just a few years, there have been two princes who have died and been abolished, and now there are droughts for many years. ”

He sighed heavily and shook his head, as if he was very sad: "Now the speculation among the homeless people is becoming more and more unreasonable, and I am also loyal to the Queen of Heaven, so I dare to say these words to His Highness." They said that because the birth date of the Queen of Heaven was not the mother of the emperor prophesied in the holy relics, the Queen of Heaven should not be in the middle palace, and the son of the Queen of Heaven should not be in the position of the crown prince. ”

Li Dan listened quietly, when he didn't deliberately laugh, he couldn't help but reveal a sense of killing and decisiveness, which made Su Liangqian involuntarily startled, and it was easy to stabilize his mind, and after finishing the following words: "Of course these words are nonsense, I won't believe a word, if this year's homeless people fail to be appeased properly, I'm afraid that public opinion will be very unfavorable to the Queen of Heaven and several highnesses in the palace." ”

You'an nested in front of Li Dan, and couldn't help but "hum", this Lord Assassin was really cunning, he knew that Li Dan, as a prince, could not be bribed with money like other inspection officials, or grabbed a handle to blackmail, so he first blocked Li Dan's mouth with words. If Li Dan questioned the incorruptibility of the local officials and refused to take out enough silver and rice grain, I am afraid that the position of the queen of heaven in the middle palace and the status of several princes will be threatened by rumors.

I don't want Li Dan to reach out and slap it heavily on the table: "Okay!" If there were more outspoken people like you in the DPRK and China, the drought situation would not have reached this level today. Early tomorrow morning, Lone will go with you to personally give porridge to appease the displaced people and share the worries of the queen mother. ”

Su Liangqian was stunned, he didn't expect his words to have such an effect, and quickly recalled whether he had said too much, and dissuaded Li Dan: "Those homeless people are very rude, Your Highness ......"

"Needless to say," Li Dan stood up, "Lone can't live up to your hard work of telling you bluntly!" After speaking, he dragged You'an straight away, leaving Su Liangqian in place, his face blue and white, how could this eighth prince be such a person who listens to the wind and rain.

In order to prevent Li Dan from having the opportunity to understand the real situation, Su Liangqian arranged a residence for him, which was in the Assassin's Office, and temporarily planted flowers and trees into a small courtyard.

Li Dan didn't know if he was really drunk, or if he deliberately confused outsiders, and his body kept pressing heavily on You'an, insisting that she help herself in.

As soon as the door was closed, You'an threw down the arm he was hanging on his shoulder, and said with a cold face: "Your Highness, do you want to rest again?" Tonight, it's a musician, and a slave from a good family, and they all come to toast His Highness, and His Highness is tired. ”

Li Dan smiled "sneering" and sat down slowly: "If you say that, Lone will think that you are eating." He squinted slightly, and looked at You'an with great interest, this is the girl he fancies, and the more he got along, the more he found her very interesting, like a blue-eyed kitten offered by a Persian merchant, with a cold face, but he didn't know what childish thoughts were in his mind.

Lone's eyes are so good, he thought as he stretched out his body and said lazily to You'an, "Take off your boots and come here." ”

When he first saw her, he had ordered her to do so, but at that time, he didn't know that this was the girl he had ever seen, and he didn't know that this was the girl he was looking for in his life, so after taking off his boots, he told her to go out.

You'an stood still, motionless, she used to be a humble palace maid like an ant, and in front of the prince, she could only be careful not to annoy him. Now she is the pen of the Uchihiro Bunkan, and she no longer needs that h2
