King Jia's heart jumped suddenly: Which bastard actually wrote a letter to report me about such a thing, could it be the people around me? Otherwise, who would know so clearly?! But his mouth just perfunctorily followed with anger: "It's really greedy for blood! My lord, this person must be thoroughly investigated!"

"That's nature!" Xiao Yunhe echoed loudly, looking like he was the same enemy, and said, "In the public warehouse of the imperial court, one warehouse kiln can hold seventy or eighty thousand catties of grain, and there are one hundred to three hundred warehouses in one warehouse. Isn't it a joke that anyone can use such a large warehouse in private! As far as I know, Hanjiacang alone can store 200,000 stone of grain, not counting Luokou Cang. Uncle Thirteen, you say...... How can you have so much food!"

"That's, that's it!" King Jia said very indignantly, "I'm a poor prince and I don't have real power, where can there be so much food?!"

"That's why I said, there are so many villains now. I am afraid that the world will not be chaotic. Xiao Yunhe said angrily, "How can the people of our Li family bully public property and damage the public and private interests! The whole world is our Li family's land, why are we greedy for such a little thing?"

"But isn't it!" King Jia didn't hear it, Xiao Yunhe was sarcastic about him, and said indignantly, "The whole world is our Li family's land, is it necessary for us to do that kind of thing? I heard that the lord wants to borrow grain from the imperial family, and before Xuanqing can say it publicly, I immediately donated the only 500 stone of grain in the granary! All this is for the sake of our Great Qi country!"

"That's, that's!" Xiao Yunhe nodded in admiration, but scolded in his heart: You old thief and donkey, you really don't blush when you lie and brag! It won't be long before you know what price you have to pay for bullying and suppressing you.

At this time, Xiao Yunhe pretended to be very concerned, took King Jia's hand, and said, "Thirteenth uncle, the little nephew really thank you." You have donated the little food you have in your family, do you still have food?"

"This ...... The minister himself will find another way. Thank you for your concern. King Jia was happy in his heart: this time it was over.

Xiao Yunhe still looked drunk: "I think there must have been a bad harvest in Guannai this year! Uncle Thirteen has more than 200 hectares of Yongye land, and there is actually only such a small amount of grain saved! Alas, I knew that this situation would happen, and I should have transferred two or three hundred thousand stone of grain to Beijing when I left Shu! Shu is ripe, and the grain is about to break through the warehouse." ”

King Jia's eyes rolled when he heard this: Li Mo, this kid, what do you mean by this? According to the Great Qi Law, Prince Yongye's field must not exceed 60 hectares...... He has investigated my background so clearly, could it be that he came prepared and is knocking on me? I mentioned Yongjiacang and Luokoucang earlier...... No, this kid is going to play a trick on me?!

Xiao Yunhe looked drunk, but his eyes were very sharp, and he stared at King Jia's expression. Seeing his suspicious appearance for a while, he secretly laughed in his heart: Old fox, why is it that you are bluffed by me, you will not be able to hold your breath, right? You have 200 hectares of Yongye land alone, and this does not count the land property of the people you have embezzled and the grain taxes you have embezzled. If you didn't have a grain of hundreds of thousands of stones in your hands at any time, would you have the ability to set off a soaring grain price in this place in Guannai a few years ago?

King Jia muttered in his heart for a while, and he couldn't figure it out. Xiao Yunhe laughed secretly in his heart, shook his body and stood up and said, "Thank you Uncle Thirteen for your hospitality." After drinking two more drinks today, it seems that I can't do anything serious. I'm going back to the Assassin's Mansion to rest. ”

"Huh! Your Excellency will be out of sight when he says this. King Jia hurriedly stayed, "When you arrive at the minister's mansion, where is there any reason to go back to the assassination mansion to rest?

"That's not good, that's not good!" Xiao Yunhe said with a serious wave of his hand, "I also have three thousand iron-armored flying dragon riders with me! These people are used to killing people without blinking an eye, and they are used to being domineering. If I hadn't watched from the sidelines, something big might have happened. I can't do without a general in the army, I must go back. Uncle Thirteen, I'll bother you another day. Farewell!"

"That'...... The prince is easy to go, and the minister sends the adult. King Jia's heart was empty for a while: Three or three thousand iron-armored flying dragon riders! What does he want to do?

Xiao Yunhe called the guards who accompanied him and left King Jia's Mansion together. On the way back to the assassination of Shifu, he kept laughing, thinking that King Jia couldn't sit still no matter what. Either hand over the food honestly, or show the fox's tail to catch yourself.

After the prince left, King Jia hurriedly ran outside Li Mian's room and knocked on the door.

"Who? The old man is already asleep. ”

"Duke Xuanqing, it's Xiao Wang!" In front of Li Mian, who is extremely senior, King Jia only dares to call himself Xiao Wang.

"Oh, it's the prince, then please come in. ”

King Jia pushed open the door and walked in, and Li Mian was tidying up his clothes on the couch. He didn't care about any etiquette, so he hurriedly ran to Li Mian's couch and said nervously: "Duke Xuanqing, this time...... You're going to save me!"

Li Mian frowned, and said suspiciously: "The prince has something to say slowly." What's going on?"

King Jia said anxiously: "Xuanqing thinks so." What is the Prince here for?"

Li Mian said: "Didn't he say it himself?

"No!" King Jia said in surprise, "he is here to deal with me!"

"How can you see it?" asked Li Mian puzzled.

"He, he just told me that someone in the customs area reported me for encroaching on the public warehouse and embezzling the imperial grain. "He said he didn't believe it, but ...... But he brought 3,000 iron-armored flying dragons to ride! My mother, those toys have appeared in Yongzhou, is that a place for fun? That's 3,000 demon kings who kill people without blinking!"

"Flying Dragon Rider?!" Li Mian's eyes widened suddenly. Pretending to be frightened, he said, "This is the iron horse he has been operating for many years and is extremely strong in combat! Seemingly...... Things are really serious. But how can the prince think that he must be coming to deal with you?"

"Hey!—" King Jia sighed and said in a low voice. "Actually...... Between the little king and the prince, there is an unknown festival. During this festival, we didn't even break it down. But Xiao Wang clearly knew that the adults must be haunted by that matter, and now they are going to take revenge. He is now the crown prince. The prince of a country, and he is in prison. He is already the actual emperor, where do I dare to fight him? I didn't ...... in the first place Alas, the past is unbearable! To this day, Xiao Wang only dares to ask Xuanqing Gong to come up with an idea to save me! You are the prince's mentor, and the adults are kind to you, and they will definitely listen to you. ”

"That's ......" Li Mian's brows were tightly knit in contemplation, but his heart was happy: King Jia, King Jia, you really fell for the prince's plan to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger! The three thousand iron armor has not done anything. It will scare your soul away.

"Does Xuanqing Gong have a way?" King Jia couldn't wait to look at Xuanqing Gong.

"Alas...... Actually, I don't have a good idea. Li Mian sighed and said, "Although the prince calls me sir, he is in charge of all major matters. For so many years. He is a thousand times better than me. In terms of wisdom and power, where am I his opponent? If you want to compare your eyes with him...... I advise King Jia to die of this heart as soon as possible. Even if you fight occasionally, you can't twist your elbows into your thighs. As soon as three thousand iron armor and iron hooves are stepped on, even the iron cavalry of the Chisong Dezandi Plateau will obediently bow down and be subordinate, not to mention those of us. So I advised King Jia...... It's best to do things according to the Prince's wishes. Only if he is happy to serve, he may be able to escape. ”

"Follow him, how to follow him?" King Jia was stunned.

"Isn't it obvious?" Li Mian smiled slightly and said, "The prince made it clear that he came to the customs to urge food. But he brought with him three thousand iron armors. I also revealed the news to King Jia before: after the old man sells this old face, there will be an East Palace Order or a Holy Decree to order the royal family to donate food. This qiē is too obvious! The prince is bound to get food. It's just that at the beginning, it was to give the relatives of the royal family a step down. This grain must be handed over, and as for how it should be handed over and in what way it will reach the prince's hands, the difference is great. If it is voluntarily sacrificed, it is a meritorious hero of the country, and if it is collected after the prince has issued a strict order, or even used force to suppress it, then it is a hoarding for the rich and unkind. The results of these two approaches are also very different. ”

King Jia suddenly woke up and said in shock: "So...... When the prince came to my house today, he basically knocked on the mountain and shook the tiger, and asked me to take the initiative to donate food?"

"It should be. Li Mian nodded affirmatively, "The prince is very smart, and his power and magic methods are perfect. He would never do something that was meaningless and uncertain. ”

A cold sweat broke out on King Jia's back, and he muttered, "Yes, yes...... He just told me that someone had accused me of occupying Yongjiacang and Luokoucang, and that it was clear that I had occupied 200 hectares of Yongye land. It seems that he made a move after checking on me a long time ago!"

Li Mian laughed: "Then did the prince do these things?"

"Ah?...... This!" King Jia was speechless, then laughed dryly for a while, and said, "What can we do if we are princes, we don't ask for land or wealth? Over the years, the emperor has rewarded him very much. So...... Alas, let's not talk about that. Xuan Qinggong, tell me, what should I do?"

"It's simple. Li Mian said, "Take the guilt of Jing and ask for it, and then sacrifice food to forgive the sin." Your army's 200,000 men are now short of food. If the prince can fund the military rations of the 200,000 army, he will undoubtedly make a great contribution. It also helped the prince a lot. After all, the prince is the prince's uncle, and if he doesn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha, he will definitely not blame you for the past. When the time comes, the old man will say a few words for the prince in front of the prince...... And it was done. ”

"Twenty, two hundred thousand troops!" King Jia's eyes widened.

"Not bad. Li Mian said calmly. "This does not include the flying dragon riders led by the adults themselves, as well as the civilian husbands who accompany the army. In fact, it is more accurate to calculate according to 300,000 horses. ”

"Three hundred thousand!" King Jia gasped, "Oh my God." How much food does that need?! Those soldiers have no oil and water in their stomachs, and they can eat all of them. Maybe you can eat two catties a day, and 300,000 people can eat 600,000 catties a day! That's nearly 200,000 stone of grain a month!"

Li Mian laughed: "What's the matter, the prince is distressed?"

King Jia shook his head helplessly, sighed and said, "To be honest...... Over the years, I've had just a little bit of money. If I give it all away, how will I live?"

"The prince was confused. Li Mian shook his head and smiled, "Think about it yourself...... Isn't the reason why you have such a big family business now because of the emperor's grace? How much income do you bring to you every year from your hundreds of acres of Yongye land and those few big public warehouses? That's still underestimating you. The so-called tree is a big move, and you have a family business like this, there is no reason not to make people jealous and suspicious. It is only natural that the prince found your head. Besides...... Nowadays, the emperor begs the prince to supervise the country. It won't be long before the crown prince will definitely have to comply with the throne. Rajah. Once a son of heaven and a courtier, you still don't understand? You don't dare to curry favor with the prince, and ...... in the future With a stroke of his pen, your eyes full of glory and wealth will not be wiped out in an instant? You can leave the green mountains behind, even if there is no firewood to burn? You are willing to give up this grain at present, but in exchange for peace and comfort for a long time, why not lose it? Which is more important, the prince must weigh it clearly! "Ah, ah!" Jiawang suddenly opened his mouth, patted his forehead again and again and shouted, "I, I'm confused! I'm really confused! If it weren't for Xuanqinggong's first drink, I would almost have lost my footing and hated for eternity! Thank you Xuanqinggong. Thank you Xuanqing for your great kindness!"

"Hehe, don't thank me. Li Mian said with a smile, "It is the same blood of the Li family, and the old man is also for the sake of harmony within the clan." What's more, if it weren't for the kindness of the prince, the old man wouldn't have had the opportunity to say this in front of the prince. In fact, with his thunderous work habits and style, he has already given the prince enough steps to go down. Lord, you have to see the right time, don't miss it. ”

"Of course! Of course!" King Jia bowed his hand again and again, and waved at Li Mian. After being politely grateful for a while, King Jia hurriedly left Li Mian's room.

Li Mian lay down with a smile and muttered to himself: "It's done! Harmony is precious, harmony is precious!"

At this time, Xiao Yunhe had already returned to the Thorn History Mansion and lived in the Assassin History Courtyard. In the room, he and Wu Yuanheng were talking, and night had fallen. The soldiers of the Flying Dragon Cavalry, as usual when marching, patrolled the martial law in front of the main courtyard of the Assassin's Mansion, each armed with a gun and a halberd, and was majestic.

In the darkness of the night, a figure ran briskly in front of the arch of the main courtyard. As if facing a great enemy, the Flying Dragon Rider raised his sword and gun and shouted: "Stop, what kind of person! If you dare to trespass again, you will be killed!"

King Jia was taken aback: "Yes, it's Ben!" King Jia asked to see the crown prince, please report to the general. ”

"Oh, it's King Jia. The soldiers of the Flying Dragon Rider put away their swords and guns, "Lord Wang, please wait, the last general will go to report." ”

King Jia inadvertently wiped his forehead and muttered to himself: "It's cut and killed at every turn, it's really a group of demon kings, we really can't afford to mess with ......"

Xiao Yunhe and Wu Yuanheng had already heard the movement outside the courtyard, and looked at each other and smiled: "Sure enough, it's here." ”

Wu Yuanheng said with a smile: "My lord's bluffing and deception all hit King Jia's weakness. Where does he have a reason to sit still? In addition, with Xuan Qinggong there, it is not difficult for King Jia to open up after some inducement and persuasion. ”

"It's good to be enlightened. Xiao Yunhe sneered, "Within the royal family, peace is also the best policy. My uncle, although treacherous, is not stupid. I wish he could be a little more sensible. ”

Wu Yuanheng nodded with a smile: "Then Weichen will retreat first." ”

"Go ahead. Xiao Yunhe nodded in agreement, and then said to the soldiers outside the house, "Please King Jia." ”

King Jia quickly ran to Xiao Yunhe's room, and without waiting to close the door, he fell down on one knee: "The criminal Li Xian, I am willing to ask the prince to punish him!"

Xiao Yunhe strode forward in astonishment, pulled King Jia to stand up and said, "Thirteenth Uncle, please hurry up, where do you start with this?"

King Jia's face was full of fear, and he sighed and said, "Sinner...... Just after the crown prince moved away, the criminal minister thought about it and thought that it would be better to come and confess his guilt. The one who wrote the letter against the guilty...... What is said is the truth. ”

"Oh?!" Xiao Yunhe let out a heavy sigh of surprise and said, "So, Uncle Thirteen really occupied Yongjiacang and Luokoucang, and embezzled the imperial grain handed over in the eastern capital?"

King Jia cried with a sad face: "So...... After the sinner came to his senses, he came to the adult to ask for his sin!"

Xiao Yunhe's face changed sharply in an instant, and he looked at King Jia with a cold look in his eyes: "You really did this kind of thing?!"

"Yes......" King Jia sighed again and again, and didn't dare to meet Xiao Yunhe's fierce eyes, twisted his head to the side and said, "It's the criminal who is confused and confused! Holding the 200 acres of Yongye Tian rewarded by the emperor, he was not satisfied, and he also used various officialdom connections to occupy the Yongjia Gongcang and Luokou Gongcang. These two warehouses are the largest public warehouses in the eastern capital. The transportation is convenient and the management is good, especially convenient to do transactions at the Caoyun terminal. I'm greedy for convenience, so I'll ...... and he used it for his own use. ”

"It turns out it's still true!" Xiao Yunhe pretended to be angry and glared at King Jia, and scolded loudly with a little hatred that iron is not made of steel, "You let those people in Cangkou do things for you, but let the court pay them salaries, isn't this also corruption?!" Isn't that so?"

"Yes, yes...... King Jia nodded with cold sweat on his forehead, "Lord Crown Prince is indeed ...... Discerning. The sinner is ashamed, the sinner is guilty!"

Xiao Yunhe pretended to be angry and paced back and forth for a while, then sat down on the chair and said angrily: "Since you know that you are guilty, why do you keep doing this?

As soon as Bu heard the words how to protect you, King Jia's heart burst with joy: It seems that he didn't want to kill me!

"Your Excellency is wise! The criminal knows that the crime of embezzling the state's property is serious, and he will never commit it again in the future!" King Jia made a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance and changed his mistakes, and said solemnly, "At this time when the country is in trouble, the criminal minister is willing to donate all his family resources to the country to help Daqi tide over the current crisis and do a little bit for the prince!"

Xiao Yunhe was overjoyed. But he said very calmly: "Then what are you going to do?"

"That's it!" King Jia saw that the prince's anger was gradually subsided, and his heart was secretly happy, and he quickly accelerated the offensive to curry favor, and said, "There are 300,000 stone grain in the Yongjia warehouse of the criminal minister, and 200,000 stone grain in the Luokou warehouse. In addition, there are more than 100,000 stones in the private warehouse built by the criminal minister in the area of Yongye Field. The total is 600,000 stone of grain! All of these 600,000 stone will be donated to the treasury of Daqi!"

"600,000 stones!" At this moment, Xiao Yunhe was really shocked, and looked at King Jia with wide eyes, "You actually have so much food?!"

"Ah, the prince is too little?!" King Jia said in shock. "Why don't you go and make an appointment with the fourteenth brother Shao Wang and ask him to donate food as well......?" His family background is not much worse than mine! I dare not say more, there must be 500,000 stones. The two of us can donate a million stone of grain in total!"

"One million!" Xiao Yunhe really took a breath. I secretly said in my heart: In the world of Great Qi, there are actually big moths who have privately occupied such a huge amount of grain! It is no wonder that the rivers and mountains of Great Qi are weakening day by day. These two moths alone are enough to empty the treasury of the imperial court and come out of a huge hole. And that's not counting the other big and small greed...... If you pull it all out. How many things do you have to find out?!

It's unimaginable!

King Jia looked at the crown prince with a stunned and angry look, his heart panicked, and he whispered in fear: "Lord Prince...... What do you think?"

Xiao Yunhe regained his composure and said lightly: "Everything has been donated, what should you do yourself?"

"It doesn't matter!" King Jia said with a wave of his hand, "Thanks to the kindness of His Majesty the Emperor over the years, our two brothers have saved some savings. Now we are also content and happy, the important thing is that the crown prince can lead Daqi through the current crisis! But we can survive on our own anyway. Anyway, there are still 200 acres of Yongye fields given by the emperor! The autumn harvest will be coming soon, and we ...... It will be able to come back to life again. ”

When it came to this, Xiao Yunhe also beat the water dog and didn't give him a chance to breathe. Said with a cold face: "The law of Daqi clearly stipulates that the prince's Yongye field shall not exceed sixty hectares. Even me, the prince. Now there are only 100 acres of Yongye field. Thirteenth uncle, you have obtained these 200 hectares of Yongye land by hiding it from the emperor, right? Otherwise, how could the emperor have given you so much land outside the law? In addition, there are many people in the customs who have accused you of occupying hundreds of hectares of other people's fields by relying on the protection of the imperial power. A rough estimate shows that your actual land production is no less than 500 hectares! With the addition of King Shao, the two of them have a total of 1,000 hectares of land! How many acres of land are there in the Guan? It has not been taken up by the two of you! Millions of people in the interior of the Guan, where are the people of Daqi, it is clear that they are the families of your King Jia and King Shao! In fact, Xiao Yunhe also made it clear that there are bones in the eggs. The law is the law, but over the years, it has long lost its binding force. The whole world is full of princes and princes, who would take a second look at this kind of thing stipulated by the law?

"Ahh

Xiao Yunhe let out a long sigh, held King Jia's arm and made him stand up, and said earnestly: "Thirteenth uncle, no matter what, you are also my own uncle." I'm not going to do anything to you. Our royal people's own ugliness should not be publicized. In this way, as you said, you go and make an appointment with King Shao, and the two of them will work together to donate food. I'll write down a book for the two of you first. As for your sins, they are just right against this merit. No reward and no punishment. It's just that in the future, you have to do it yourself, don't be a nephew like me, it's hard to do. ”

"Yes, yes, thank you, Prince!" King Jia's legs weakened, and he thanked him again and again.

"As for the fields...... Xiao Yunhe pondered for a moment, and then said, "This is an extraordinary time, and I don't want to deal with this issue for the time being. I don't want this issue to surface, so that too many people will point the finger at our Li family. This is a big shock to the imperial power. What the imperial court needs most at the moment is to win the recognition of the world and the trust of the people. So. You should take care of the land first, and manage it well. You shall take care of the grain and grass you have collected, and hand over as much as you can to the state treasury. After the autumn harvest, you will collect the land and grain into the treasury, and when the time comes, you will be liquidated, and no one will be able to criticize anything. Until then. I will settle the land in your hands again, so that they can return to the public account of Daqi in a more dignified way, and then distribute it. In this way, you too can escape from the crowd. Uncle Thirteen. What do you think of my method?"

"Very good, very proper! As soon as you get it, it's all up to the prince!" King Jia said to himself, "What a ruthless, ruthless character!" No wonder the emperor couldn't cure him, and we couldn't count him together. My fourteenth brother and I have been running the land for so many years. The dare is all for him! This time he really broke his teeth and swallowed it in his stomach, and he ate Coptis chinensis dumbly!"Hey, Uncle Thirteen!" Xiao Yunhe said seriously. "Actually, as long as the country of Daqi is good and the position of our Li family is stable, are the emperor's relatives still worried about not having a good life? What is the point of becoming the richest man in the world, but the country is in decline? The so-called nest has no eggs, and this kind of truth is too obvious. In this way, you have harmed the public and private interests, and disregarded the interests of the country. Not only will it chill the hearts of the people of the world, but it will also bring great damage to the country. If this goes on for a long time, everyone is like this, can Daqi last long?"

"Yes, yes...... King Jia only nodded like a chicken, and secretly hated in his heart: I actually let a junior teach a lesson! Never mind. People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. Who left us without a backer. He's about to step up to the throne again? If he can get a life, he can endure everything!

Xiao Yunhe painstakingly gave King Jia a lesson in politics before letting him go. Walking out of the gate of the Assassin's Mansion, King Jia found that his clothes were soaked, and his legs were a little weak, just like the feeling of escaping back from the execution table once. He shook his head and muttered: This kid, we can't afford to mess with ...... I can't afford to mess with it!

Xiao Yunhe was already sitting in the room with Wu Yuanheng and laughed loudly.

Wu Yuanheng said with a smile: "My lord's hand is a beautiful game." King Jia is also quite aware of current affairs, and things seem to be smoother than we imagined. ”

"Well, it's quite smooth. Xiao Yunhe was also laughing and said, "Actually, they just covered their ears and stole the bell." The people in the Guannei, who don't know that the families of King Jia and King Shao are hoarding grain, and they are rich enough to rival the country. I didn't settle the last grain case with them, and I was already on the same page. Fortunately, they are also interesting and know how to go down the ladder. Otherwise, this time I really plan to blacken my face and move for real. After all, the 200,000 military forces are at stake in the safety of the world, and for the sake of this overall situation, I can do anything. Now this ending is good. They took the initiative to donate food, and laid a favorable foreshadowing for me to carry out land rectification in the future. Bo Cang, we have gained a lot from this trip!"

Wu Yuanheng smiled hehehe: "A qiē is also a time, and a life is also." The overall situation is like this, King Jia and King Shao do not dare to go against the scales, and they can be regarded as heroes who know the times. Thinking back then, the adults knew that King Jia and King Shao were plotted by the emperor to plant adults, but they could only swallow their anger and pretend not to know, and now it can be regarded as a bad breath back then. ”

Xiao Yunhe laughed for a while, and then said: "If you want to say that I have this bad breath, who should you find out about the anger you suffered in Yongzhou prison back then?"

Wu Yuanheng smiled slightly: "Weichen has a little grievance, so he has nothing to worry about." As long as the overall situation of the Great Qi River and Mountains is peaceful, what is my point of making a mistake? Now that the adults have just settled the grain matter peacefully, it is not good to create a secondary chaos and make King Jia and King Shao have superfluous suspicions. Yongzhou assassin Liu Dehai and these people, just spare them for the time being. lest you lose the big because you are small. The most urgent task at the moment is to get the grain in hand first. In order to deal with these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, there will be time in the future. ”

Xiao Yunhe smiled and said, "Bocang will always have such a good overall view, I am very pleased. In the coming day to harvest grain, Liu Dehai and others have to contribute, so let them wear their guilt and make meritorious service first. In fact, they are now sitting on pins and needles, and they are not at peace day and night. I will not cure their sins first, and let them do meritorious deeds, and they will definitely serve their lives. ”

Wu Yuanheng nodded and praised: "When Emperor Taizong was back then, he often used such a strategy - it is better to make a merit than to make a mistake. Lord Prince, now you are becoming more and more like Emperor Taizong!"

"Haha, yes!" Xiao Yunhe laughed for a while, and said back to the truth, "Now, immediately send a few quick envoys to the national capital." Let Gao Gu merge the rest of the 30,000 Jianchuan Army with Li Sheng's Jingyuan soldiers, and hand them over to Li Sheng to lead them to the national capital. At the same time, let Ma Sui lead the people of the headquarters and also drove up. Let's come to the eastern capital to receive grain and grass. War is imminent, and we have no time to delay. Let them receive grain and grass, and go to each place. In addition, let them bring all the people with them when they come, and transport all the remaining grain to the national capital and put it in Taicang. From now on, Taicang and the treasury will be put in charge of the most trustworthy people, and we must also have more eyes. Taicang and the treasury must no longer be swallowed up by some moths. ”

"Yes, I'll do it right away. Wu Yuanheng bowed, exited the room and went to run errands.

Xiao Yunhe sat alone in the room and let out a long breath: he finally got the big thing done. If there is no food crisis, there is no need to be afraid of Li Xilie and those people in the three towns of Hebei in the war situation. As long as I can prevent this wave of turmoil and stabilize the situation in the Guannai, I can ascend the throne and become emperor.

It's been six years...... After six years of hard work, I finally waited for this day!

Two days later, Xiao Yunhe personally led two thousand iron horsemen, accompanied by his two good uncles, King Jia and King Shao, to the Eastern Capital. Wu Yuanheng was left behind in Yongzhou, accompanied by a thousand flying dragon riders. He will lead these sergeants to supervise Liu Dehai and others, the assassin of Yongzhou, and receive the grain from King Jia and King Shao in their private warehouses in Yongzhou. When the assembly is completed, it will be transported to the national capital and directly packed into the Taicang of the imperial court. Liu Dehai and the others were already frightened, but now they finally got a chance to make up for their merits and curry favor with Wu Yuanheng, and they all worked hard to do errands, and they were very busy. Therefore, Xiao Yunhe doesn't have to worry about the affairs in Yongzhou at all. Originally, Wu Yuanheng was also extremely safe.

Han Jiacang is no longer the one Xiao Yunhe is familiar with. More than 100 years have passed, and the scale of Hanjiacang has almost doubled, covering an extremely wide area. There are more than twice as many grain kilns used to store grain. Grain kilns of various sizes, the largest has a diameter of six zhang, and the depth is two or three zhang. The walls of the kiln are dried by fire, and then covered with straw, wooden planks and other moisture-insulating things. When the grain has entered the kiln, it is sealed with soil to prevent rain. As far as the eye can see, there are countless grain kilns sealed with earth. According to Jiawang, most of the grain taxes collected from Suzhou, Xuzhou, Chuzhou, Runzhou, Chuzhou, Suizhou, Jizhou, Dezhou, Puzhou, Weizhou and Guannei were hoarded here, including brown rice, millet, beans, and wheat.

Xiao Yunhe couldn't help but exclaim: more than 100 years have passed, and Daqi has still improved a lot. The population has multiplied several times, and the products have become much richer. Like the grand occasion of Hanjiacang in front of him, Taicang, the former national capital, could not be compared.

Next, Xiao Yunhe and the others went to Luokoucang and several other warehouses occupied by King Shao. The situation seen is not much different, a large amount of grain, sealed in the Zài grain kiln, is really nearly a million stones. Xiao Yunhe felt that he had really become rich overnight, and he had picked up a lot of money. King Jia and King Shao. Character aside, collecting money is indeed very good!

After inspecting several large granaries, it was getting late. Xiao Yunhe took these people and went to Luoyang, the eastern capital, to spend the night. The situation here in the eastern capital cannot be compared with that of the national capital. Mainly in recent years, the impact of Li Xilie in Huaixi has been relatively great, and the people's hearts are panicked and orderly, and public order is also somewhat chaotic. There is also a lot less business travel. Although the national capital is still in turmoil, it still retains a trace of prosperity. Although the huge city and complete buildings here in the eastern capital are not much inferior to the national capital, the stability and popularity cannot be compared at all.

Xiao Yunhe saw it in his eyes, and he was naturally very dissatisfied in his heart. I thought about this person who stayed in the Eastern Capital. What exactly has been done?

As soon as he entered Luoyang, Han Quanyi, the left-behind general of the Eastern Capital, hurriedly greeted him, and led a group of people to bow down in front of Xiao Yunhe.

"You are the one left behind in the Eastern Capital, who is your name?" Xiao Yunhe's words were not very polite.

Han Quanyi had long heard that the newly appointed prince was a figure he couldn't provoke, and now he was even more panicked when he saw the biao iron horse he was carrying, and hurriedly replied: "Back to the prince's words...... The last general, Han Quanyi. He has been ordered by the emperor to stay in the eastern capital for three years. ”

"It's been three years?" Xiao Yunhe snorted coldly, "In the past three years, Dongdu has not suffered any natural disasters and military disasters. Why is it so depressed and deserted? The streets of the city are also in chaos, and when I entered the city just now, I saw people openly fighting in the streets, and no one came to manage them. What are you left behind? Guarding the first few bricks of the city without losing them is considered all right?!"

"This ...... This!" Han Quanyi glanced up in a panic, only to see that King Jia and King Shao were also beside this young prince, and they didn't dare to come out, and he was even more panicked in his heart, and he snorted. However, there are many reasons for the current situation in the Eastern Capital, and the last general cannot explain it clearly for a while. How about the adults please come to the city and rest in peace, and then explain slowly?"

"Hmph. It's up to you. Xiao Yunhe raised his horse's whip and rode his horse into the city. Han Quanyi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He looked up at King Jia, who rode past him. King Jia glared at him angrily, and cursed in a low voice: "Look at it! This king himself has been cleaned up by him." I don't have time to protect you!"

Han Quanyi shrank and didn't dare to look at Xiao Yunhe. Xiao Yunhe just grabbed him to him and gave him a hard beating. In fact, he didn't plan to abolish him now, and he stayed in the eastern capital. The eastern capital may face war at any time, but it cannot be delayed on the battlefield because of the chaos of public order and poor people's livelihood. This may be a wake-up call to him, and it may have some effect. Now it is not easy to find a suitable person to take over from him as the eastern capital.

Han Quanyi was dizzy and bowed his head again and again to admit his mistakes. Fortunately, I have never heard that this prince said that he would be abolished immediately, and I was glad in my heart.
