That's right.

If the prince "borrows grain", he can't borrow it. What will happen to the people?

At that time, no matter what, the anger of the people will be diverted.

Deputy Commander Ji looked at this junior who had not yet reached the crown with a complicated look, and could only nod.

Now that the time is set, there is no room for delay.

By the time the people dispersed and the local officials came, it was already early afternoon.

The prince had already eaten his meal and was waiting for them.

This time has just come, presumably they have already communicated in private.

The household officials who had come to the disaster relief were collectively silent, saying that they could not do anything about the matter.

This is the attitude of a person who must not offend.

Gao Taishou had a bitter face and led a group of officials to cry poor.

They said that they also tried to ask those in the city who had food to borrow food, and they also gave out some of it. You can't continue to borrow it, this thing just has to go and there is no return.

"It's really hard to open your mouth now, and if you continue to borrow, I'm afraid you won't be able to borrow anything. When the time comes, it will make it difficult for you, Your Highness." Gao Tai guarded the way.

"What does Lord Gao mean that His Highness said in front of so many people wants to take it back?" Su Nancheng didn't get up, and said with a smile: "Your Highness is the prince. Under the whole world, it is only one level lower than His Majesty. Now that he said it in front of the people of Luancheng, he wants to take it back? If the tall man is not easy to do, he will ask the prince to go back on his word?"

"No, no, no, the minister doesn't dare. That's all that Master Xiao Su said." The tall man waved his hand as if he didn't dare.

"That's not what Master Gao meant, it's just that this thing is definitely difficult to do. If it can't be done, won't it also make His Highness have no light? Why don't you think about it again?" Sun Tongzhi hurriedly smiled and said to the prince.

The prince didn't speak, so Sunan Cheng continued: "Before Your Highness came down, you also had more than half a month of disaster relief, but it was effective? It's been a hot year this year, and even though it's still going to be overnight, it's August. How much longer?"

"What's more, Your Highness's words have already been said, why are you blocking it several times now? If you can't make it, don't you have to invite someone to ask? Maybe you guys are looking at the disaster in Luancheng, and now that the treasury is empty, you can respond?" Sunan Cheng Road.

"Well, that's true. If you don't want to do this, you can ask someone else." Only then did the prince speak: "Lest you villagers make a lot of trouble."

This means that Gao Taishou did not ask anyone to do it, and it was his own interests that were entangled.

That's a good point.

The biggest wealthy family in the city is the brother-in-law of the tall man.

In addition to this fan, there is a nine-rank official position hanging in the yamen, and he has never been on duty.

He holds this official position just so that he can be exempt from taxes.

For the rest, there are still a few businesses in the city that do a lot of business, and then there are also the properties of relatives or domestic slaves of officials in the capital or elsewhere.

Sunan Cheng did a brief investigation before he came.

"Don't dare." Gao Taishou couldn't hold it down, but reluctantly agreed to invite everyone to come tomorrow.

Then he was in a hurry to retire, presumably to discuss countermeasures.

When they left, Deputy Commander Ji probably didn't want to participate either, so he left Sunan Cheng alone to face the prince.

"Zhiyu, this matter is really not easy to handle. If there is a mess, do you think they dare to jump over the wall?" The prince asked with a frown.

"It's hard to say, Your Highness, don't worry, Weichen sent someone out to inquire about things. Now that I'm supposed to be back, why don't you listen to it first?" Sunan Cheng Road.

"Okay."

Not long after, Wu Sandeng came.

After asking An, Su Nancheng asked him to go out in the morning to inquire.

"There is indeed a problem with Fan's official position, and the Fan family is now involved in a lot of business. Satin and cotton, restaurants, and several gambling houses. It's nothing, their family must be in the coal business."

Nowadays coal can only be dug in the open air, right now

It's enough in this era.

That is, it is used by the people.

For example, Sunan Cheng, even when he was not favored a few years ago, he never used coal.

He used charcoal that wasn't very good. For example, red snail charcoal and the like, he also uses it at home now.

"There are three other families, namely the Meng family, the Li family, and the Wei family. Divided the big and small businesses in the city. But it's far worse than the Fan family. And then there is Chang Yibo, who came back from the capital seven years ago to retire. His family also has some business, which is not much, but there are countless fertile land."

"The rest are just small rich people." qδ

Sunan Cheng nodded and told him to go down and look at the prince: "Your Highness?"

The prince sighed: "It seems that you have to look at the Fan family and Chang Yibo first. Gu still remembers Chang Yibo, and their family should have a wife from the royal family."

"It is Chang Yibo's mother, she is the one whose majesty has to call her aunt according to her seniority. But it's not His Majesty's current branch. Although it is also surnamed Fu, after all, it is far away." Sunan Cheng Road.

"Is there a way to say that?" When the prince saw Su Nancheng say this, he knew that Su Nancheng would not flinch.

"Your Highness, Wechen doesn't have any clever plans. It's just ......."

He didn't go on.

As soon as the prince waved his hand, the eunuchs around him understood, and they hurriedly saluted and retreated.

When he went out, the prince said, "This is a child who is a child who follows the orphan, and he doesn't listen. Just say it."

"Yes, Weichen just thinks that Your Highness, you have no way out. There is no turning back from the bow." Sunan Cheng said bluntly.

"If you really let it go, Luancheng is afraid that it will be the next Jinzhou. Now that the chaos in the south has come to this, why doesn't Your Highness do something so that those who are not convinced have to obey?"

The prince muttered, "It's not that Lone doesn't dare, it's just that he moves his whole body."

"Your Highness thinks twice." Su Nancheng no longer persuaded him, and the prince himself knew his situation better than anyone else.

If you don't do it, if you don't do it, you don't know how you're going to die.

If the world is really peaceful, can this prince be your turn?

As for Su Nancheng himself, he suddenly felt that if he wanted to do things and be promoted, was there anything faster than supporting and serving the dragon?

"Okay, if you support Gu like this, I'll take a gamble."

How helpless.

The dignified prince has only one six-rank official by his side to support him, but what can he do?

It was a gamble, but he really couldn't help it.

"Your Highness doesn't have to worry about Gao Taishou and they will temporarily defect, our manpower is a little worse, but Luancheng is not a border city after all. Only 6,000 people. If we do get to that point, the people of the whole city will be our people."

"If you obey Your Highness, they will all be good officials of the Great Yuan. If they don't obey and hurt the people, they are corrupt officials. The people outside can't live anymore, they just show the way, and they know how to do it."

It is really a civil uprising, and it is not impossible for the people of this city to rush to the Taishou Mansion.
