MTL - Five Years Later, She Bombarded the Palace with a Miniature Version of the Regent-Chapter 321 Counting on Yunxi

  Chapter 321 Calculating Yu Yunxi

   "The Zhenbei Palace is so big, and the princess didn't want to say anything about it last night, so you don't know about it!"

  Yu Yunxi glanced over with cold eyes, and then spoke indifferently.

  Yu Xiaoxiao's face froze.

  Yu Yunxi really won't give her face.

  Thinking of this, she felt resentful again.

   "What about the thief?" Chu Yuefu asked aloud.

   "He resisted fiercely, and this princess has killed him on the spot. The body has also been thrown into the mass grave." Yu Yunxi replied calmly.

  Nan Xing was beside her, her little face wrinkled.

   Obviously nothing happened last night, why did the eldest princess mainly say that a thief came?

  But there must be a reason for what the eldest princess does, so let's see.

   "This thief is so bold!" Chu Yuefu said sharply.

  Yu Yunxi's eyes fell on Chu Zai again, and then said slowly: "Actually, although the thief last night was hateful, speaking of it, he was forced to do nothing."

   "Oh, what do you mean?" Chu Zai looked at her with inquiring eyes.

Yu Yunxi looked sad: "Yesterday, when I left the mansion, I met a lot of beggars and felt sorry for them, so I gave them a little bit of silver. It is probably because of this act of revealing money that some of them were eyeing them. So last night, I risked my life and entered the Zhenbei Palace to steal."

   "Sister Yun Xi, this is not a reason for you to sympathize with beggars." Chu Yuefu shook his head.

  Yu Yunxi responded; "I understand that he broke into the house and almost hurt someone. He really deserves to die. But when I went to investigate later, he was not only a beggar, but also a commoner in Kongzhou..."

  When the word "Kongzhou" came out, Chu Zai and Chu Yuefu's expressions changed.

   After all, the locust plague in Kongzhou can be regarded as Chu Zai's current heart disease.

"I continued to investigate and found out that so many beggars flooded in from Kyoto were originally the people of Kongzhou. They were displaced by the locust plague and had to flee south. Alas, if it weren't for losing their homes, who would leave their homes and steal Woolen cloth."

  Yu Yunxi shook her head, her tone was complicated.

At the end, she said to the emperor again: "Last night, I told the thief that he had the courage to come and steal from the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, so why not wait a little longer, the court will go to relieve the disaster immediately, and the food is coming soon." Kongzhou is gone, they will be saved. But guess what, the emperor, what did the thief say?"

   "How to say?" Chu Zai had been led away by the nose by Yu Yunxi invisibly.

"He said that the locusts are extremely powerful, and they have a tendency to go south. They might not stay in Kongzhou in a few days, but run south, all the way to Kyoto. And these locusts are different from the past, They are very powerful. They not only eat the grains that grow in the ground, but also eat the dried millet, and even hurt people. The relief food transported by the capital will be hijacked halfway, and the people in Kongzhou will still be Gotta starve to death..."

  Yu Yunxi was observing Chu Zai's expression while talking.

Seeing that he had listened to her words, she immediately continued: "Like my mother, I like to study medicine. It suddenly occurred to me that I can make some medicine prescriptions and put them in the food. People who eat these medicines will be fine." , but the locusts will die if they eat it.”

  Yu Yunxi was persuasive, and Chu Zai looked at her sharply: "You can really make this medicine?"

  Although he hated Yu Yunxi, he also hated this plague of locusts.

  If the locust plague is not eradicated for a day, his treasury will continue to pay out silver, and the state and city in the north will not be stable, and his country will not be stable.

   "Of course it is possible. Yun Xi can guarantee it with her life." Yu Yunxi raised her head and said firmly.

  Finally, she added: "However, Yun Xi has to see how much food is available before dispensing the medicine. It must be more or less, otherwise it will eat dead people."

   "General Qu hasn't left yet, and the food is still in the capital. If you want to see it, I can let someone take you there." Chu Zai said coldly.

  He glanced at Yun Xi, and his tone became cold: "However, if you don't handle this locust plague well, I can put you in jail at any time."

   "Yun Xi complies."

  Yu Yunxi nodded calmly.

  She had already thought of a way to help them, so she would not be afraid.

  Chu Zai didn't have much patience either, he ordered Yu Yunxi to go and count the food after an hour, and then he left in a huff.

   "Sister Yunxi, I have never heard of locusts robbing food that has left the ground. Your real intention is to count the food!"

   At this moment, Chu Yuefu looked over, and he said with a smile.

  Yu Yunxi didn't hide anything, she turned her head and said calmly: "That's right, my real purpose is indeed to count the food."

  With the opportunity of counting the grain, I am afraid that those who want to load stones on the carriage should panic.

   There is still an hour, but she wants to see how they can remedy it.

Chu Yuefu's eyes flashed brightly, and he said meaningfully: "Your lie, even I can see through it, and my father must know about it. Aren't you afraid that he will punish you for a crime of deceiving the emperor? "

  Hearing this, Yu Yunxi's smile deepened.

   "But didn't the emperor not punish me in the end?" She asked back.

  She didn't intend to deceive the emperor with her remarks just now.

  He was betting that the emperor cared more about the stability of the country, and he was betting that he wanted to punish her all the time.

   It turns out that she was right.

  The emperor has been sitting on the dragon chair for so many years, and the empress dowager's party has been greedy for disaster relief money. It is impossible for him not to receive any news.

  But he kept silent, probably because he couldn't find an opportunity to expose the empress dowager.

  Then she doesn't mind, and personally delivered this opportunity to him.

  She took the initiative to take care of this matter, and when the empress dowager gets angry, she will only hate her.

   Besides, she also took the initiative to say just now that if she fails to rescue the disaster, she is willing to go to the prison, and the emperor will naturally feel at ease.

   After all, no matter what, he doesn't lose money!

   "Sister Yun Xi is very strategic, it's because I didn't think carefully." Chu Yuefu also thought of this level, he said slowly.

   "Yun Xi, it's hard for you. You have done your best for the people, but the emperor still suspects you." Empress Qin said to Yun Xi distressedly.

   Sensing the other party's deliberate concern, Yu Yunxi felt very uncomfortable in her heart, but she didn't show any emotion on her face.

   "Anyway, there's still an hour before we go to count the grain, otherwise, Fu Er, you can take Yun Xi around the palace." Empress Qin began to suggest.

  Yu Yunxi frowned, she was just about to refuse, but Chu Yuefu had already answered: "I obey."

   "Sister Yunxi, please."

  Although Yu Yunxi was unwilling, she could only follow her out at this time.

  Yu Xiaoxiao watched, not to mention how anxious she was.

   She didn't care whether Chu Yuefu would be angry, so she quickly lifted her skirt and chased him out.

  Looking at the background of their departure, Empress Qin's face, who had been kindly before her, turned cold instantly, and her eyes became extremely sinister.

   "Unexpectedly, this palace will be kind to that bitch's daughter one day."

   "Empress, please bear with me, His Royal Highness said that it will be of great use to Yun Xi." Mother Jiang comforted quickly.
