After losing the vest at the beginning, the female general was forced to marry the scheming prince

Chapter 140 Promise to Save King Jing

This time the Pingshun Commercial Bank was seized, and they found several places to store grain by following the vines. A total of 180 million shi of grain was seized, which is comparable to a medium-sized official warehouse.

But now the Jianghuai official warehouse is almost empty.

After discussing with Lin Jianshen, Ning Youbei and Lin Jianshen decided to use 80 shi of grain as the grain storage of the Jianghuai government, and distribute the remaining 100 million shi to the people in Jianghuai and Huaihe to appease them from the pain of rising prices this year.

This matter was handed over to Lin Jianshen for specific implementation, but Ning Youbei secretly ordered the disciples of Lingxiao Pavilion to supervise.

……

Although this time in the end, no evidence was obtained to find out the main messenger behind it, but Ning Youbei's coming out this time is still very rewarding.

First of all, the potential threat of the southern frontier army was removed, so that Yudu would not be attacked from both sides; secondly, it was confirmed that the officials in Jianghuai and Huaihe were in collusion, corrupted and accepted bribes, and also calmed down the wildly rising prices in Jianghuai.

In addition, several 10 taels of silver that had not been transferred in time were recovered from Fang Haichang.

Ning Youbei decided to return to Yudu.

……

Qu Chu has already arranged for Jiaorui's new household registration. Now Jiaorui's name is Jiang Rongfang, from Huai'an; Chunxiao's name is Jiang Chunfang, Jiang Rongfang's younger sister.

Qu Chu handed over the new household registration to Jiaorui, as well as 1 taels of cash.

"Miss Jiang, this money is not much, but it is enough to buy a small house in a medium-sized town, and you can make a living with the rest."

Jiaorui didn't shirk.

Although she has accumulated a lot of money herself, it is always good to have more money by her side.

……

Lin Jianshen sent two thousand officers and soldiers to escort Ning Youbei and a group of criminals back to Yudu.

On the day of the departure, people from both Jianghuai and Huaihe Rivers came to the streets to watch the excitement, and they didn't know who led the way. There was a shout of "Your Majesty's grace" in the crowd, and then more people shouted "His Majesty's Grace".

Whether it was arresting corrupt officials or distributing food, Ning Youbei did everything in the name of the emperor.The common people didn't know that the person who executed it was the king of Chu.

Over the past year, prices in Jianghuai have skyrocketed, and ordinary people have suffered greatly from it. Now seeing so many corrupt officials shackled in prison cars, I can't help but feel happy.

I don't know who threw the rotten vegetable leaves at the prison car first, and more rotten vegetable leaves and fruits were thrown at the prison car, with two rotten eggs mixed in.

People actually want to throw more things, but it's a pity that eggs and vegetables also need money to buy.

……

Ning Youbei sat in the carriage and did not show up, while Qu Chu rode a tall horse to protect Ning Youbei's carriage.

However, Qu Chu still wore a mask, and outsiders did not know that this person was the famous General Qu.

Jiaorui (Jiang Rongfang) and Yanhong rode in the same carriage. She quietly opened the corner of the curtain and looked outside. This is the place where she has lived for nearly 20 years. Now she wants to leave, and she feels very complicated.

Mandala Villa
Sui Lijing has lived in Mantuo Villa for more than half a month, but Su Yingxue has not promised him to save King Jing, he is really anxious.

He couldn't stay out of the army for too long, and being found out without authorization would be a serious crime for him.

Although the emperor already knew that he had left the army, he would not admit it as long as he was not caught in the face.

But now the King of Chu has settled Jianghuai's affairs and just left Jianghuai.If the emperor wanted the king of Chu to come to Mantuo Villa to stop him on a whim, it would be conclusive evidence.

……

Originally, when Su Yingxue came out of the poison cave that day, she planned to set out to save King Jing, but later when she heard that Sui Lijing was comparing King Jing to Qu Chu, Su Yingxue was upset.

How can a double-faced hypocrite like King Jing compare with Qu Qu Qu!
So, she decided to let Sui Lijing hang out for a few more days.

……

"Master Su, what exactly do you want to save Youdi?"

Facing Sui Lijing's questioning again, Su Yingxue sat on a chair in the hall, picking her nails boredly.

This person is really interesting, he doesn't even know how to change his tricks when asking for help, and he hears the same few words over and over every day.

Sui Lijing also wanted to use force to deal with Su Yingxue, but he knew that if he really did that, Su Yingxue might never agree to save King Jing again.

And if it wasn't for Su Yingxue's willingness, even if he held Su Yingxue hostage, it would be impossible for him to leave Mantuo Villa.

After coming to Mantuo Villa for a few days, Sui Lijing found that this Mantuo Villa is really not something ordinary people can break in at will.

There are poisonous flowers, weeds and poisonous substances everywhere, and if you are not careful, you may die.

……

Life was so boring, Su Yingxue suddenly thought of playing tricks on Sui Lijing.

"As long as you promise me one thing, I will promise to set off now to save King Jing."

Seeing that Su Yingxue finally let go, Sui Lijing let out a long sigh of relief: "Say it."

Su Yingxue looked at Sui Lijing playfully, "You will agree to whatever I say?"

Sui Lijing hesitated for a moment, this matter really cannot be delayed any longer.So, he said firmly: "No matter what you say, I will agree."

Su Yingxue touched her chin.

The man on the opposite side is tall, straight, mature, stable, and heroic. It is the most attractive age for a man.

"I've fallen in love with you, why don't you divorce your wife and marry me."

The sound of "bang" was the sound of Sui Lijing kicking the foot of the table.

"You... what did you say?"

Su Yingxue's evil voice sounded again: "I said, I've fallen in love with you, and I want you to divorce your wife and marry me."

Sui Lijing's face became serious.

"Master Su, don't make fun of such things."

Su Yingxue smiled, "I'm not kidding, I really like you."

Only Su Yingxue knows how true and how false these words are.

"Master Su, Kang Ning and I grew up together, we have a deep relationship, and we will never do anything wrong to her."

Su Yingxue picked her nails boredly again, "Didn't you say that you would do anything for King Jing? Even if it means taking your life? Now that I didn't take your life, why don't you agree?"

"It's two different things," Sui Lijing said seriously, "If you want my life, I promise to give it to you, but if you want me to be sorry for Kang Ning, I won't agree."

Ugh... not fun at all!
Su Yingxue stood up and left without looking back.

However, this time I left a sentence: "Let's go tomorrow."

……

Sui Lijing stayed where he was: what did she mean by that?
This is... promised?

Yudu
The emperor received a secret letter sent by Ning Youbei, in which he reported the whole Jianghuai affairs in detail, including what he said when he went to see Fang Haichang.

And Ning Youbei's conjectures from Fang's family.

Ning Youbei said in the letter:

"My younger brother suggests that Brother Huang thoroughly investigate the Fang family to find out what secrets the Fang family has. Check the Fang family's ancestors for several generations, and maybe other things will be involved."

In addition to the secret letter, there is also the express, which uses the official channel.
