The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 385 385. Bad news

Feng Jinlin was very disdainful, but fortunately everything went towards the prince's vision.

"Now that the matter has been decided, I will leave first. Someone will naturally come to the Cao family head to discuss it as soon as something comes up."

Feng Jinlin is not in charge of the food payment, so it is not easy for him to interfere.

The head of the Cao family nodded quickly, "Don't worry, Prime Minister Feng County. With my Cao family here, there won't be any mistakes in taking care of this food payment."

 “That’s very good.”

Liang Quanbin was seriously injured and fell ill. Feng Jinlin did not care about the matter. Officials in Jinling City usually dealt with them a lot, so naturally someone would intervene to stop him.

 The Cao family can be said to have taken advantage of the right time, place, people and people.

 So, everyone could see the smile on his face when he left the Governor's Mansion.

Common people would not know that their wealth and life depended on this indisciplined person, but what King Ding wanted was his indiscipline.

 How to use medicine if the sore is not broken?

The Cao family is the needle that picks out sores!

At this moment, in a small courtyard, Huo Chong has been imprisoned in a secret cell for several days. During this period, except for three fixed meals a day, no one came at all.

The other party didn't seem to be in a hurry to interrogate him, nor did he worry that he would think about it. They just kept him in jail, as if they wanted to lock him up until he died of old age.

　　At the beginning, he would keep yelling and cursing, but now that his throat was broken and no one came, he naturally didn't bother to bother anymore.

 The only thing I'm worried about is my brother-in-law Zhu Hong. I wonder how he is doing in the prison of the Navy Camp?

 At meal time again, someone from the other party came through the door.

Even the dishes have not changed. There are two dishes and one soup, but the portion is a bit insufficient.

Hungry enough not to kill him, but enough to leave him with little energy to struggle.

This move is very powerful in defeating the enemy without fighting.

 The person who came to deliver the food always hid in the dark, so he has never seen who he is so far.

Handing up the bowl, Huo Chong was just as quick as before. Soon, the small amount of food went into Huo Chong's stomach.

Su Cheng and Yang Zhao standing outside were a little curious.

“When the prince kidnapped him, I thought the interrogation was going to start immediately. I didn’t expect that he was detained for so long without mentioning it. Could it be that he had forgotten it?”

Yang Zhao rolled his eyes, "When will you forget this when you see the prince?"

"makes sense."

In their eyes, King Ding is like a **** of war who cannot figure it out but always has a gap in his chest. As long as he has his mind set on someone, no matter what method he uses, he has a way to make the opponent unable to resist and attract him truthfully.

At this point, he is much more powerful than those who only use violence.

The two of them stood for a while and then left the small courtyard. At this moment, the King Ding they were talking about was playing chess with Feng Jinyao.

After the last boating trip, Feng Jinyao had rejected King Ding for several days.

 Don’t talk about him, Yang Zhao and even Su Cheng have noses that are not noses and eyes that are not eyes.

 Only when he saw his second brother, Feng Jinlin, did he feel relieved.

Although she understood in her heart that Prince Ding was doing this for the good of her father and the Feng family, she still felt awkward.

 After thinking about it for the past few days, it has become a lot clearer.

"At that time, I didn't have the same thoughts for A-Yao as I do now. If I had known that I would fall in love with you, I wouldn't have attacked my uncle. If A-Yao still feels angry, why don't you stab me?"

After saying that, he took out a sharp dagger and placed it in front of Feng Jinyao.

 The sincerity of his attitude made Feng Jinyao speechless.

 Fortunately, she was not the kind of person who couldn't distinguish between right and wrong, so she had no choice but to forgive Xiao Tingyi.

 From then on, Xiao Tingyi became more and more aggressive.

Every day he brings either fruits or other food. They are not expensive things, but they have a Jiangnan flavor.

Today's game of chess was obtained by him using fresh seasonal fruits. Feng Jinyao's chess skills are not as outstanding as Xu Ge's. Xiao Tingyi is naturally superior when playing chess with her.

But she is more unique in her thinking, and she always has some clever tricks to contain the king's black men, so after going back and forth, the two of them became more interested in playing chess.

 After getting used to his appearance, no one in the small courtyard said anything.

Especially Yunxu, he can always find time to prepare tea and snacks.

 After coming and going, everyone took it for granted that Xiao Tingyi appeared next to Feng Jinyao.

Feng Jinyao herself gradually got used to it.

For some reason, after the boating trip, her thoughts about King Ding were a little different.

 In the past, she thought this person was too unfathomable and didn't want to cause trouble, but she saw everything that happened these days.

 The dignified King Ding never used power to pressure her, but instead gave her the greatest freedom.

 Let her go crazy and laugh with her.

Most of the time, she didn't speak, and Xiao Tingyi seemed to be able to read her thoughts, and even sent her a small pot of drunken whiteheads that was hard to find late one night.

Feng Jinyao is not a piece of wood, so she will naturally be happy and grateful.

Once these emotions accumulate and accumulate, they will naturally change.

Although she didn't admit it herself, Xiao Tingyi noticed it.

 So when doing these things, be more diligent.

 She is neither overly intimate, nor always surrounds her life with opportunities for her own existence.

The scenery outside is just right, and the two people under the bright window in the house are enjoying themselves like the immortals in the painting.

 It's a pity that Xu Lin came in a hurry and broke the beauty with a serious look.

 “Your Majesty.”

"explain."

“The news sent by the Southwest Army said that there was a flood.”

When the word "flood" came out, Feng Jinyao paused.

In the last life, when floods occurred in the southwest, there were countless deaths and injuries. The refugees gathered in Shuzhou, Qianzhou and other places to cause trouble, and looted all the government granaries, but there was still not enough to fill their stomachs.

He was running around for this reason, causing a lot of looting in several nearby counties.

She heard Wen Mengsheng mention it by chance, but at that time she only felt that the refugees were pitiful, but she had never actually done anything to help them.

“Has the food raised by my grandfather and the Chi family arrived in the southwest?”

“I’ve entered the country, but I’m stuck outside Shuzhou. I still have a few days before I can enter the city.”

“Tell my grandfather and the head of the Chi family to sell it to the local gentry and nobles for at least three times the price. The higher the price, the better.”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Lin was stunned.

He always thought that the prince was hoarding food just in case the refugees fled, but who knew that he really wanted to "make the country difficult to make money"!

 I didn’t understand for a while.

On the other hand, Feng Jinyao next to her seemed to understand her thoughts, so she asked.

“Does the prince want to attract other merchants to follow suit by selling grain at a high price, so that they can all transport grain to the southwest?”

 Xiao Tingyi smiled and said, "A Yao is the only one who knows me."

 Hearing this, Xu Lin understood.

These nearly 40 million tons of grain can alleviate the difficulties of the Southwest for a short time, but it cannot be sustained for a long time. It is the harvest season now, and after a sudden flood, there will be no harvest.
