For example, the imperial court stipulated that it could not be sold at twice the price, but anyone who violated the order was severely punished. In order to confront the imperial court, these merchants will choose to close their stores. ”

Leng Lanzhi was surprised: "Can it still be like this?" ”

If you think about it, this approach makes sense.

The imperial court does not allow grain to be sold at a high price?

Then I simply don't sell it.

Anyway, it is impossible to have other channels to buy grain in the city recently, and when the food in the people's homes is finished, and the grain stores in the city are not open, where can they buy?

What?

Will the imperial court come to disaster relief?

How much grain can the imperial court get?

After the little relief grain has been stripped layer by layer, there is very little left that can be delivered to the people, and it is still not enough to eat for a few days.

When the relief food is distributed, the people of the court will leave.

At that time, will the people of the city still have no food to eat?

Admittedly, there will be people who are active to look for food elsewhere, but that is a long time later.

During this time when the merchants in the city are fighting against the price limit order, the people will definitely go hungry.

Don't want the people to go hungry?

Okay, then you let go of the price limit order.

Li Changlin looked at Gu Zhan with admiration: "What this gentleman said is extremely true. ”

He sighed: "The current situation in the city is the result of the failure of the government. ”

Although the reaction speed of the imperial court has been very fast, after all, it has been a while.

The local chamber of commerce and gangs have united to fight against the price limit order, and if the government does not make a compromise, the local people will really starve to death.

Although the consequence of the government's compromise was that the price of food soared, at least the people still had food.

If the government does not compromise, then no one will eat.

"Did you tell Wu Shangshu about this situation?"

Leng Lanzhi stared at the sky outside the window, only to see that the sky without moonlight was gloomy and low, and if you looked closely, you could see that the big clouds gathered together, and I don't know when they will disperse.

Li Changlin said: "Back to the princess, Wu Shangshu feels that since the imperial court's disaster relief food has come down, other problems are not a problem. Just wait until this period of abnormal temperatures has passed, the snow and ice have melted, and everything can return to normal. ”

Leng Lanzhi's eyes.

Is the snow melting?

In my memory, it was still two or three months before the snow melted.

"Let's do what Wu Shangshu said first." Leng Lan said: "Don't worry about the price of food for the time being, before the disaster relief food is distributed, those people can't make any splash for the time being, and the government will now concentrate on rescue first." ”

"Yes."

"I live in the Tongfu Inn in the city, and if something happens, I can send someone over to inform the palace at any time."

Li Changlin hesitated and said: "Princess, the guest house is not a long-term solution after all, why don't you live in the county guard's mansion?" In this way, it is also convenient for you to schedule, and it is convenient for the lower officials to report the progress. ”

Leng Lanzhi frowned, a little undecided, and couldn't help but look at Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan said: "The most dangerous place is the safest place. ”

The guys who searched for the princess's movements had already searched Tianhai City once, and they wouldn't come back a second time in the short term.

The conditions of the county guard house are definitely better than the inn, and there are maidservants to use, and there is no need for the princess to worry about some trivial things.

Leng Lanzhi was worried that someone would come to investigate again, and since Gu Zhan said so, it was naturally not dangerous.

As for Wu Shangshu, he is a foreign man, although he also lives in Shangshu's mansion, he will never meet with the ladies in the mansion, and she doesn't have to worry about when they will meet.

However, it must be too late to settle down temporarily, Leng Lanzhi and Li Changlin agreed, saying that she was the daughter of his distant cousin's family, and he specially came to defect, and he would send someone to pick her up tomorrow.

After agreeing on these things, she and Gu Zhan returned to the inn.

The next day, Leng Lanzhi wanted to go out to see the disaster relief situation in the city, and Gu Zhan walked in with a pair of shoes: "Princess." ”

"What is this?" Leng Lanzhi looked at the shoes in his hand in surprise.

"This is a shoe made of a special material for people, and the upper can be waterproof."

Leng Lan was stunned, and there was something strange in his heart.

I didn't expect this person to be so careful.

But after thinking about it, he is the pawn of the Jinxing Division, and he is the master of the master of tracking down clues......

When I think about it, I am relieved.

"Thank you, Gu Dianji."

Leng Lanzhi was not pretentious, took the shoes, and when Gu Zhan withdrew, she changed them.

Only by taking care of herself can she not lag behind.

Li Changlin's work efficiency was very fast, and before Leng Lanzhi went out, the next person who came to pick her up arrived.

It was an old mother and a maid, the old mother called herself Aunt Feng, and the maid was called Xiao'er.

When he heard the name "Xiao'er", Leng Lanzhi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the little girl.

I saw that the little girl was only thirteen or fourteen years old, with two very pleasing eyes on her round face, and her eyebrows and eyes were crooked when she smiled, and she didn't look like she had any heart.

"Miss Biao, Xiao'er was specially sent by the master to take care of you, and in the future, your daily life in the mansion will be taken care of by Xiao'er."

Aunt Feng's gaze was fixed on Leng Lanzhi's body from time to time, and her eyes were full of scrutiny.

Leng Lanzhi didn't have much luggage, and one package contained all her things.

In order to disguise his identity, the wrapped cloth looks gray and completely featureless.

Gu Zhan's luggage was even simpler, much smaller than Leng Lanzhi's package, and it looked like it didn't contain many clothes.

Looking at the appearance and size of the package between the two, Aunt Feng's eyes crossed with contempt: "Miss Cousin, please." ”

Gu Zhan frowned, and was about to say something, but Leng Lanzhi waved his hand at him.

Although she is a princess, she is not in the palace now.

For all the ladies of the county guard's mansion, she is a wild girl who doesn't know where she came from, and it is normal for the other party to have such an attitude.

No matter how suspicious of her identity these people are, as long as she doesn't show it in her words and doesn't embarrass her in doing things, she can ignore it.

After all, she is living in someone else's house, and she can't make people's homes uneasy because of her as a guest.

The inn is not far from the county warden's house, and it doesn't take long to walk, and the carriage ride doesn't take much time.

Leng Lanzhi thought that Li Changlin had already gone to the disaster relief, but before she got out of the car, she heard a familiar voice: "Cousin, get out of the car!" ”

Outside the carriage, Li Changlin and Mrs. Li Jia were standing side by side, Leng Lanzhi opened the curtain and first saw Li Changlin's courteous smile.

With a slight glance, he saw a face that was trying to hide his displeasure.

Leng Lanzhi got out of the carriage with Gu Zhan's support, and nodded slightly to Li Changlin: "Cousin." ”

looked at Jia Shi again: "Cousin-in-law." ”

Jia Shi was stunned for a moment when he saw Leng Lanzhi's face, and a thick look of jealousy appeared in his eyes.

She ignored Leng Lanzhi, walked to Li Changlin's side and said, "Master, didn't you say that the disaster relief matter is urgent?" Now that my cousin has arrived, you better go and get busy, and my cousin will leave it to me to greet you. ”

Li Changlin frowned: "It's very urgent, but it's not bad for a while." ”

Jia bit his lower lip heavily.

Leng Lanzhi glanced at Jia's jealous look, and felt a little helpless in his heart: "Cousin, what my cousin said is right, disaster relief is more important. ”
