Chapter 266: Quarrel

Feng Jiutian was very sensitive to capture the most critical news.

Her pale blue eyes were deep and scary, so that Feng Xiye didn't dare to look at him, and looked to the side with a dodgy look.

There is no man who doesn't mind this, he has been deliberately ignoring the fact that Feng Jiutian once married Nangong Ling.

Now, when he was mentioned, Feng Jiutian questioned him in his ears, and his face was a little ugly.

"You didn't do it voluntarily, I forced you, you married for the peace and happiness of the Western Regions, but you have now returned to me, those past things, since you can't remember them, then don't think about it, let's act as if nothing happened, okay?"

Maybe it's because this kind of longing is so beautiful, Feng Xiye almost forgot the strange feeling just now for a moment.

Feng Jiutian couldn't calm down for a long time, "So you still have something to hide from me?" What kind of terrible person did I have in the past that you wouldn't even mention it to me? ”

Feng Jiutian was very angry, mixed with some sadness.

Feng Xiye opened her mouth, but before she could explain, she pushed her out of the house.

"I don't want to see you these two days, don't always come to my eyes."

As if she had suddenly lost her strength, she sat down at the table, staring blankly at a certain place.

She raised her hand and tapped her head, trying to remember a little bit about the past, but her mind was still blank, and she still couldn't find a trace of the past that she didn't remember.

After sitting in the room for an hour, she was a little self-defeating.

But she has not forgotten the real purpose of her coming here, as the head of a country, she can't think about some small things in the house.

She pushed the door open, and there was no longer Feng Xiye outside the door.

It hasn't rained much in the past two days, and even this flood will take ten days and a half to recede.

Many homeless people looked at the rushing river with pale faces, and their eyes were empty and hopeless.

Even if it wasn't the first time he had seen such a scene, he couldn't help but feel heartache.

There is not much silver in the treasury now, and the matter of the levee must be stepped up, and the little man must no longer be allowed to do anything in it.

You must find someone who can be reliable to supervise the work.

Feng Jiu tilted his brows and went through the names of the ministers he knew in his mind, and he didn't figure out who was more suitable for a long time.

"Hungry...... Hungry ......" A pair of withered hands tugged at Feng Jiutian's trouser legs, "Give me something to eat, I haven't eaten for three days." ”

It was an old woman, her cheeks sunken because of hunger, and the two eyeballs in her sockets seemed to be shaking slightly as if she had lost the strength to see.

Looking at Feng Jiutian, who had fine skin and tender meat, he was like a man-eating ghost, his eyes widened suddenly, and a line of saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth, and Feng Jiutian was startled.

But he quickly reacted, quickly pushed her away, and walked away quickly.

It's not that she's ruthless, it's that there are too many people here who suffer from such hunger.

She thought she should do something for the Western Regions.

She turned around and went to the City Lord's Mansion to visit the City Lord of Xicheng.

She hadn't seen the lord of the city for several days since that day she had said goodbye.

Seeing Feng Jiutian, the city lord felt a headache, as the so-called nothing to go to the Three Treasures Palace, he couldn't afford to provoke anyone, no matter what Feng Jiutian wanted to do, he couldn't wait to pick himself clean.

He looked respectful, but in fact he was very impatient.

"What did the young master come up with today? But let me write you another notice and put it at the gate of the city. ”

Feng Jiu was already in a heavy mood, because of his words, he became very angry.

"So do you think that my promise to the people is just a notice to the gates of the city?"

The city lord took a deep breath, and couldn't help but think of the words that Feng Xi Ye seemed to warn that day, and suddenly felt a little chill in his back.

"Xia Guan has never thought about it like this, it's just that our Xicheng is such a big place, and the court doesn't have any silver, no matter what the young master wants to do, it's just in vain."

After he said these words indignantly, as if he realized his gaffe, he quickly stopped his mouth, and saluted Feng Jiu, "The lower official is rude, and I ask the young master to forgive me, but these are all the minister's heartfelt words." ”

He hesitated for a while, and tiredly advised: "The young master shouldn't come here, maybe if he doesn't come, he won't be so sad, and he won't want to do so many things on a whim." ”

The anger on Feng Jiu's face gradually subsided, she stared at the city lord with a sloppy gaze, she had an intuition, he had just said so many words, only the first sentence was true, and the rest was all covering up.

"Why shouldn't I be here?"

When the city lord heard this, his expression was a little annoyed, as if he was regretting his meddling.

He didn't directly answer Feng Jiutian's question, "It's the flood season, and Xia Guan still has a lot of things to do, if the young master has something to order, just say that Xia Guan will do his best to help the young master." ”

Feng Jiutian knew the depth of the water in Xicheng, and she didn't mean to force him, she got straight to the point, "I want to know who buys the most grain in Xicheng?" ”

Almost without thinking about it, the city lord knew what Feng Jiutian was going to do.

"Young Master......" He let out a long sigh, and after a while he compromised, he said: "All the grain in this Xicheng is controlled in the hands of several families, among them, the Qin family with the most financial resources is the one who buys the most grain. ”

"Don't look at the current helmsman of the Qin family, Qin Yuheng, is only twenty-three years old, but the Qin family is supported by him step by step, inheriting the family business at the age of fifteen, and at the age of twenty-three, the Qin family is already famous in the Western Regions."

Even if she didn't like the banditry behavior of these families, Feng Jiutian had to say that she had some appreciation for Qin Yuheng, who had never met, from the city lord's chat.

"I want to meet this Qin Yuheng."

The city lord was not surprised by this request, even when Feng Jiutian and Feng Xiye came to Xicheng for the first time, he already knew that there would be such a day.

He glanced at Feng Jiutian, and stopped talking, very embarrassed: "The head of the Qin family has already done his business elsewhere, no matter how much the flood season is not in Xicheng, I am afraid it will not be so easy for the young master to find someone." ”

Feng Jiutian didn't expect such a coincidence.

"In that case, wouldn't the others not be in the West City? I just want to know something about them, so I might as well be on guard. ”

The city lord nodded clearly, "The others are not as elusive as this Qin Yuheng, it's just ...... They may be a little too aggressive. ”
