Seeing Liu Jiao say this shocking thing with a very indifferent expression and a harmonious tone, Liu Ying's face only swelled with a meaningful smile.

- Liu Jia, the king of Jing, the dignified Liu Han clansman, and the princes and kings who own most of the Wu land, can be ordered by their own country and blocked in their own royal capital?

This is not to say that such a thing is completely impossible.

But Liu Ying is very sure: if there is really a drastic change like 'chaotic people surrounding a royal capital', then this news will inevitably be sent to Chang'an as soon as possible!

After learning the news, the Chang'an court will inevitably send an envoy to understand the situation as soon as possible.

If it is 'for a reason', it must be that the princes and kings were brought back to Chang'an by the envoys, and in front of the entire court, explain well: what kind of thing did he do that people and gods are angry about, so that the simple people did such a thing as 'surrounding the king's capital'.

If there is no sudden occurrence, the procedure is not much different - Chang'an sent an envoy to investigate the situation, and after determining that it was not the princes and kings who did anything lacking morality, they would also take the princes and kings out of the royal capital and take them to Chang'an in the name of 'playing right to Chang'an', which was actually out of protection.

And no matter whether such a thing is caused by the behavior of the princes and kings, or whether it is a civil rebellion caused by the behavior of the princes and kings, or a civil rebellion that occurs for no reason, it will inevitably lead to two results.

- First of all, regardless of whether there is misconduct or not, the princes and kings must be held accountable!

The difference is only that: if the popular rebellion was caused by the actions of the princes and kings, it is according to the story of Liu Xizhi, the acting king, who deprived the princes of their titles;

If there is a sudden mutiny for no reason, the princes and kings still need to stay in Chang'an for a period of time to 'introspect behind closed doors'.

After realizing his mistake and making a review in front of the Son of Heaven, he promised that he would be a prince and king who loved the country and the people in the future, and after reporting to the ancestors of the society and appeasing the people, the princes and kings could return to their own royal capital with the punishment of 'making meritorious contributions to the crime and seeing the follow-up performance', and 'think about it behind closed doors' in the palace for a year and a half.

Secondly, regardless of the cause of the incident, the rioters who participated in this change will be sanctioned!

The difference is that if the princes and kings oppress the people, which leads to 'officials forcing the people to rebel', then it is likely to be the first evil to sit for the crime, and the punishment will be light, and the rest will be fined;

But if the princes and kings did not have obvious misconduct, then the rebellious people who participated in the popular uprising would probably be all conspiring against each other······

And now, as the most important neighbor of Jing State, Liu Jiao, the king of Chu, said lightly in front of the crown prince Liu Ying: Liu Jia, the prince of Jing, was surrounded by the rebels of his own country in the royal capital, and he couldn't even come to greet the prince?

If this is really the case, Liu Jiao and Liu Fei at this moment should not appear in the Fengyi Palace where Liu Ying is located.

In particular, Liu Jiao, the king of Chu, should mobilize his own army as soon as possible and impose martial law at the junction of Chu and Jing to prevent the influx of rebellious people into his country!

As the crown prince, Liu Ying should not 'return to his hometown to worship his ancestors', but should immediately use the tiger talisman to gather an army and surround the entire Jing country, which may have undergone a civil uprising!

And in the previous life, Jing Guo also received the order of Liu Bang, the Son of Heaven, to 'bring his own dry food and army, and wait for him', but in Liu Ying's memory in his previous life, there was no content about 'a civil uprising in Jing State'.

Coupled with Liu Jiao's indifference when he talked about this matter, which was seriously inconsistent with its importance, it was not difficult for Liu Ying to guess: the facts, I am afraid that they are not as serious as Liu Jiao said, and even to the extent that Liu Jia, the king of Jing, was besieged in the royal capital, and he couldn't go to the city.

The truth of the matter should be that Liu Jia has not completed his country's preparations for the upcoming rebellion of King Yingbu of Huainan in accordance with the order of Liu Bang, the son of heaven, and he can't leave for a while, so he asked Liu Jiao, who has a higher rank in the sect family, to help explain to himself.

Regarding 'unable to import grain from Guanzhong', Liu Jiao was also worried about how to open his mouth to Liu Ying, and when he heard Liu Jia's entrustment, he immediately had an idea.

After communicating with Liu Fei, the king of Qi, and getting the permission of Liu Jia, the king of Jing, the saying that 'King Jing was blocked in the royal capital by chaos' naturally came to Liu Ying's ears.

As for the 'chaotic people' in Liu Jiao's mouth, it is also likely that they are some displaced people who fled the famine and temporarily lived outside Wuyi to seek a way to survive.

Realizing this, a stiff smile also appeared on Liu Ying's face.

——As soon as Liu Jiao saw Liu Ying, he risked being suspected of deceiving the prince, and euphemistically pointed out that there was a shortage of food in Jing, Chu, and Qi, which was indeed a bit rude.

But in the final analysis, this situation is indeed because of Liu Ying, and it is indeed because of Liu Ying's 'inaction' that has dragged on to this day.

Previously, when she met Cao Shen in Xingyang, Liu Ying did not give a too clear answer to Cao Shen's temptation.

And now, in front of the two princes of Qi and Chu, as well as Liu Jia, the king of Jing, who was 'trapped in the royal capital' because of this matter, and could not appear, Liu Ying obviously couldn't drag it out.

It is not difficult to see from Liu Jiao, who has always been steady, that he can't wait to hint at Liu Ying's 'when will it be solved': The problem of food shortage in the Kwantung countries is probably imminent.

Thinking of this, Liu Ying also sighed slightly, and then Liu Jiao and Liu Fei, who were ashamed of themselves, gave up their hands respectively.

When she straightened up again, Liu Ying's eyebrows naturally swelled with a haggard heart.

"The Kwantung countries are suffering from a lack of food, and Gu really has known about it for a long time."

"It's not a lonely person - this matter has long been known to the court, and it has even reached the father's hearing."

told the facts in front of Liu Fei and Liu Jiao without concealing the facts, and Liu Ying sighed again.

"However, last year, what is the situation in Guanzhong and what is the situation in the court, Uncle Chu Wang and Brother Qi Wang have all heard about it."

"——In the autumn of last year, the emperor died, and the construction of the mausoleum and other funeral matters consumed a lot."

"After the autumn harvest, the grains in Guanzhong are not abundant, and the emptiness of the treasury is even worse; At that time, Chen Feng was in chaos and Zhao was imminent. ”

"In order to enable the emperor's army to be opened, the marquis had to temporarily send out the courtiers and hundreds of officials, and even the officials of Guanzhong County and Zuozhi Banlu, in order to replenish the army's military rations······"

With a long sigh of affection, Liu Ying's face couldn't help but smile a little bitterly.

"The war of the descendants and Zhao is prolonged, and the army of the father and emperor consumes millions of stones of rice and grain every month!"

"At that time, I was alone with the order of my father, shouldered the heavy responsibility of supervising the country, and sent young officials and slaves to repair the Zheng Guoqu."

"However, the Marquis was worried about the supply and transportation of grain and grass for the army, and he had to cut off the rations of the officials and slaves of the young government; In order to make the canal repair unhindered, the queen mother also had no choice but to give out the Lu family's private food, so that the whole canal repair was done alone. ”

"And the marquis, even more bitter about the emptiness of the treasury, and worried about the supply and transportation of grain and grass for the emperor's army, so he had to still practice the policy of 'having rank and half of Lu'."

"Until this year, in the summer and April, all the officials and assistants in Guanzhong have only half a Lu, more ······than half a year old."

Listening to Liu Ying talk about the situation faced by the Chang'an court last year, Liu Fei and Liu Jiao couldn't help but nod slowly with solemn faces.

These things, not to mention Liu Jiao and Liu Fei, who are the princes of the clan, basically no one in the whole world does not know.

When Emperor Taishang died, Liu Jiao even rushed back to Chu as soon as possible to guard against Yingbu and Chen Feng rebelling together, so he could only hastily end his father's funeral, and after arriving in Xinfeng for just three days, he embarked on a long journey again.

Regarding the explanation given by Liu Ying, Liu Jiao and Liu Fei have no meaning.

But Liu Ying's bitter complaint did not end with the heads of His Royal Highnesses the uncle and nephew.

"What's more, there was no division between the grains in Guanzhong last year, so that at the beginning of spring this year, there was a slight shortage of grain and rice in Guanzhong."

"At that time, my father led the army to reign, and he stayed in Chang'an with the responsibility of supervising the country."

"At this time, when my father was outside, lonely and weak, and imprisoned the country, he was taken advantage of by the two or three profiteers in Guanzhong, and secretly raised the price of grain, and even the price of rice in Guanzhong reached 4,000 yuan a stone, but it is still more than that!"

Speaking of this, Liu Ying couldn't help but grit her teeth, and after a while, there was a sudden self-deprecation on her face.

"My father is not here, and the marquis is working all day long on the supply and transportation of food and grass for the army, and he has no time to take care of anything else."

"The lonely tooth is dissatisfied, and he has never known about political affairs; In the face of such great changes, we have to be cautious and dare not slack off. ”

"In the end, I will only get the grain and rice of the government of the Shaofu to force the price of grain."

Speaking with a sigh on his face, Liu Ying did not forget to slightly skim to his brother Liu Fei on the side.

"The matter of secretly linking up with the grain merchants in China to push the price of grain is deeply implicated in the Tianqi royal family of the sunset, the Changling Tian clan."

"More Kongqiu disciples, "Zhou Yi" at that time descended Tian He Tianzizhuang, for the Tian family side lineage."

"Thinking about this, I had to go to Changling and inform Zi Zhuang Gong of the matter of 'going to Guanzhong grain merchant Mijia'."

"Unexpectedly, on the way back, seven or eight assassins who had the courage to be thieves waited ······for them in Changling South."

Seeing Liu Ying say this with a wry smile, and even stroked his ribs with a look of reminiscence, Liu Jiao and Liu Fei's faces were all extremely indignant!

——The prince of the dignified prince was assassinated in the mausoleum of the emperor and the founding emperor!

This alone is enough to ignite a monstrous anger in the hearts of the two!

Because of this matter, Gai is not only slapping Liu Ying's face, the face of the Han family, and even the face of today's son Liu Bang, but also slapping the face of every Liu clan member and Han courtier!

Looking at the indignation on the faces of Liu Jiao and Liu Fei, as well as the fact that Liu Fei secretly carried a touch of concern in his eyes, Liu Ying sighed and couldn't help but feel warm in her heart.

nodded slightly to Liu Fei with a smile, saying that he was fine, and Liu Ying finally ended her bitter complaint and quietly changed her head.

"Fortunately, with the blessing of my father and the ancestors of my Liu family, I was lonely and did not give birth to a poor pool, and the society was shaken."

"The matter of the grain and rice of the Shaofu government was also approved by my father and the emperor, and it was widely practiced in Guanzhong."

"With the order of orphans, Shaofu also has to close the rice storage of grain merchants, and set up a grain market to sell grain and people's food at a reasonable price."

"So far, the peak of grain prices in Guanzhong has finally been resolved······

After speaking, Liu Ying only felt a dry mouth, so she grabbed the tea bowl in front of her and took a sip gently.

On the opposite side of Liu Ying, Liu Jiao and Liu Fei, who heard this response, fell into a short period of contemplation at the same time.

What Liu Fei was thinking about was the 'nonsense' that occasionally appeared in his ears before, such as 'the king is the elder, and he should be in the temple'.

When he heard these words, although Liu Fei was the first to refute them sternly, and even occasionally lowered the punishment, in some dead of night, Liu Fei did have similar thoughts in his heart.

- Although the widow is not a son-in-law, he is the eldest son!

The queen only has one son, Liu Ying, if Liu Ying has a 'mistake', then the position of the ninety-five supreme will soon fall on the head of his eldest son?

But now, when he heard from Liu Ying's mouth what Liu Ying, the 'prince of the prison country', had experienced in the past six months, Liu Fei only felt a burst of shock in his heart.

"The prince is only half a year old in prison, and he is in such a complicated situation······"

"If you succeed to the throne of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, it will be ······ the emperor's life"

Thinking of this, Liu Fei only shook his head violently in his heart, and the expression on his face couldn't help but grit his teeth a little.

- This emperor, what should a man do?

In the past half a year or so that Liu Ying has passed, Liu Fei has already picked his toes a little nervously just by listening!

For a while, the idea of 'it's better to be the king of Qi' became more and more firm in Liu Fei's heart, and even with it, he couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards those who said 'the king should succeed Sheji' in the past.

- I thought you were all loyal ministers, but I never thought that in order to learn from the dragon's work, I was planning to push the widow into the fire pit!

- A bunch of thieves!

On the other hand, thinking of Liu Ying's complicated situation, and even being assassinated himself, but finally solved the matter almost perfectly, Liu Fei's mind couldn't help but flow quietly.

"In this way, the prince, there are indeed many who are better than the few."

"After a hundred years of waiting for my father, only the prince can succeed the community, and make the society ······ peaceful"

Thinking like this, Liu Fei finally smiled with relief, and immediately lowered his head.

On Liu Fei's side, Liu Jiao, the king of Chu, had a sad look.

"The Prince's Meaning ······"

"Could it be that even now, the court is unable to allocate grain to solve the food shortage in Kanto?"

Shaking his head a little heavily, Liu Jiao looked at Liu Ying with a little urgency, and there was a little pleading in his eyes.

"Last year, Guanzhong did not distinguish between grains, and the mansion and library have been empty since Hanli, which is something that few people are familiar with."

Frowning and saying a word, Liu Jiao did not forget to turn his head sideways, and only after Liu Fei nodded with a submissive nod on his face did he look at Liu Ying again.

"However, there are Jing, Chu, and Qi in the south, and Yan, Dai, Zhao and other countries in the north.

"In the past few years, the widow also heard that the Chu merchants went west, entered the Hangu and begged for rice in Guanzhong, got the grain back, and the goods were fed with the Chu people."

Speaking worriedly, Liu Jiao looked at Liu Ying's gaze, and became more and more cautious.

"However, at this age, the family went to Guanzhong grain merchants and Mijia, and the merchants of Chu entered Hangu at the beginning of spring, but they could not find a place to buy grain from Guanzhong, so they had to return empty-handed."

"So far, it has been a full number of days; The people of Chu today have no corn to eat, so they can only feed on the rest of the grains. ”

As he spoke, Liu Jiao glanced at Liu Fei again and continued: "King Qi also said that since the beginning of spring, the price of rice in Qi has skyrocketed, and there is no market for many of them. ”

"Jingguo, due to food shortage, and the people are about to change······"

The last words were said in a slightly weak tone, and Liu Jiao finally looked at Liu Ying cautiously.

"Jing, Chu, and Qi have not encountered wars, and this is still the case, and the war between Dai and Zhao has continued since last year, and I am afraid it will be even worse."

"This is all about the grain merchants and Mija in the middle, and the grain and rice are not sent out from the Middle East to provide food for the people of the world······"

"The minister also knows that Guanzhong has no distinction between the five grains in the past year; Although the grain and rice in the Guanzhong are owned by the Shaofu, there are also many overstretched. ”

"However, the people outside the customs are also bathed in the grace of His Majesty, and boast of saying: Han Min."

"Please Your Highness read this generation of Han people, and give a little of the food obtained by Shaofu to relieve the hunger of the people of Kanto······"
