Abilities Farming and Benefiting from a Well-off

Chapter 519 Love Is Only When I was Young (2)
And the former emperor has been there for so long now, and has been assisting the current emperor. Even if someone really wants to do something, I'm afraid they will be suppressed by the predecessor. It seems that the current one has learned from the predecessor. There are a lot of intrigues and tricks.

"Thank you, Lord Long, Eunuch, would you like to rest here for a while?" Dongfang Qi smiled and looked at Eunuch who came to announce the decree, and asked kindly.

The father-in-law shook his head, looked at Dongfang Qi with enthusiasm, and replied: "No rest, our family is going back, the emperor is still waiting for news from our family, if we have time, our family will come to the mansion again Take a break, ah!"

The eunuch's squinted eyes were full of smiles, the smile was sincere and friendly, but not too offensive, so it was said that the eunuch was able to stay in this position for so long because he had practiced a lot of sincerity. As a matter of fact, at least people like him know that they can't watch Diexiacai.

Hearing what he said, Dongfang Qi didn't want to keep him anymore. Originally, the words of the two of them were just for saving face: "Since that's the case, then I don't want to delay the business of my father-in-law. Sun Yang, you go see him off." Send it to the eunuch."

When Sun Yang heard Dongfang Qi's words, he immediately responded and sent the father-in-law out. Before leaving, Sun Yang secretly gave the father-in-law a large bag of money. The father-in-law took the money and weighed it at the same time. He immediately narrowed his eyes with a smile. "Okay, Sun Huwei hasten to go back too, after all, it's important where the young master is, and there are people protecting us here."

Sun Yang smiled and bowed, watched his carriage leave the gate of the mansion, then turned back and entered the mansion.The old lady staying on the mountain naturally knew that the person who announced the decree had come to the mansion, but when she heard that the person who announced the decree did not mention her, she finally understood in her heart, it seems that she was treated as an abandoned Otherwise, why would none of these people want to mention her? Is she a dead person?
After the day when the emperor declared him to be seen, Dongfang Qi took a carriage and entered the palace. The emperor was the only one who met him. Dongfang Qi sat calmly in the imperial study, listening to the emperor talking about things after he ascended the throne. With the new policy he came up with, after the emperor finished nagging, Dongfang Qi also mentioned his own affairs.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the grain depot was plagued by locusts?" Dongfang Qi said without continuing.

The emperor, who thought he knew Dongfang Qi's character well, immediately asked, "What's the matter, does Ai Qing have any solution?"

Dongfang Qi didn't say it directly, but talked about the disaster that the country would suffer without the grain depot, and how those people in the border towns still looked down on it. If there was a period of fatigue here, there would definitely be a counterattack there, and If all these things are piled up, then not only will the country suffer, but the emperor will also suffer, and if the emperor suffers, then if the country wants peace again in the future, the emperor will have to worry about it and his hair will probably be gray. arrive.

"Your Majesty, the grain depot cannot be delayed for a moment. I don't think I need to say it. The Emperor should have understood how serious this matter is. The plague of locusts is a disaster for grain. Even if those farmers continue to sow, I am afraid that the supply will not be sufficient by then. After all, it is not easy to grow food, and it is even more difficult to harvest it.”

The grain depot is guarded by heavy soldiers, and the emperor has given the direct jurisdiction there to the person he trusts the most. As long as someone in the court dares to move his mind there, the emperor will never let it go.

"If Aiqing has a good idea, just say it, and I'm willing to promise you whatever you want." The emperor immediately made a promise when he was excited.

Dongfang Qi raised his eyebrows and smiled, his eyes narrowed and his whole demeanor softened: "To tell you the truth, I do have a way. My fiancée can let those rice rush to the ice and snow, and serve the white rice. The emperor should Remember her too, the rice you eat now is all supplied by her."

When Dongfang Qi mentioned this, the emperor immediately remembered it. He said ah, and then raised his wide sleeves: "It's that girl. I didn't expect that she was your fiancee. You kept it a secret. I still remember her, maybe it should be said that I have a deep memory. The rice she supplied to the palace was all top-quality rice. If there is a way, no matter what she wants, I am willing to give her."

When they came, they had discussed it a long time ago, if the emperor agrees, then they only need to ask him for one thing. "Your Majesty is wise, I have already thought about it. If this matter really comes to fruition, I only need the land with her, as long as the emperor grants her a piece of land."

The emperor was taken aback, but he didn't think that he would usually want a thousand or ten thousand taels of gold. After all, if you have money, you can want anything, but the land is not particularly precious, because the abandoned land in various places is still There are many, even some lands have not been reclaimed yet!

"Okay, I will promise you this matter, as long as all the rice there is planted, and it can be harvested in time, then I will not only agree to your request, but also allow you to add another Request." The emperor said to Dongfang Qi with a slight smile.

Dongfang Qi sued him for this sentence, so he didn't go around too much, and said directly: "Don't worry, the minister will definitely not disappoint the emperor's expectations."

The emperor looked at Dongfang Qi, and said it was a pity in his heart, if he was not the son of the family, nor the head of the family, maybe he could really be a general with both square and square shape, but it is a pity, with the circle of the family, even if he wanted to It is impossible to come out, besides, he will soon ascend to the position of Patriarch.

"Dongfang Qi, I first wish you to ascend to the position of Patriarch as soon as possible. When that day comes, I will give you a big gift."

After Dongfang Qi knelt down and thanked him, he went back home.As soon as he returned to the mansion, he heard Sun Yang say that the old lady was crazy on the mountain. Dongfang Qi just smiled when he heard the news, but he didn't expect the fact to be true. The old lady has been infatuated with the person in her heart for so many years. What she is obsessed with is the image of her youth, but now that he is old and sallow, she can no longer love this word. This is really a sad story.
