Almighty Nongmen Phoenix

Chapter 209;

As for whether Chaotang would take this opportunity to resolve the crisis, she didn't think about it at all.

It was Chaotang's luck to be able to resolve it, and as the creator of wheat flour, her benefits would certainly not be less.

Of course, what she hopes most is that the court's actions are not as fast as the aristocratic family's. Since then, the aristocratic family has done everything so utterly and will not give the court a chance.

That is to force Emperor Hongwen to use a knife on them. The more domineering the family, the more unlucky they will be.

You must know that if the imperial court has been without food, there will inevitably be a lot of riots below.

If it is her, she will definitely not make the family feel better, and even put some hats on the family, taking this opportunity to clean up the family while weakening their reputation among the people. influences.

"Yaoyao, this is not a small matter, you must be careful."

"Anyway, you are the only one who can make this wheat flour. Let's use it quietly for ourselves. Don't make a fuss. After this incident is over, let's make it again. Anyway, this money is endless."

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao nodded with a smile, and continued, "Thank you uncle for your concern, and for letting you go again in the hot weather."

"Don't worry, I have a plan in mind."

Seeing her so relaxed, although Lu Xiu still wanted to persuade her, but after thinking about it, her niece is very capable and smart, so she must have thought of this.

"Yaoyao, uncle knows that you are successful."

"But uncle still wants to remind you that you must think twice before doing things. You are the only blood of my younger sister. Neither uncle nor your grandfather and your second uncle want anything to happen to you."

"Well, I will be careful, thank you uncle."

Lu Xiu sat for a while before getting up to leave.

As soon as he left, Qiushuang also said worriedly; "Miss, I have thought about what my uncle and lord said just now. It will indeed be very troublesome. Why don't we let people outside leak the news?"

"No, what I want is to leak it out, and it's best to make it known to the world."

"This"

Qiushuang was still a little worried.

"Sister Qiushuang, what are you worried about? Miss must have a reason for doing this."

"You think, this is also a good thing."

"If everyone in the world knows that wheat can be made into flour and steamed buns, how many people can be saved?"

"Miss is doing a great deed, a great deed."

Qiu Yu didn't think too much, and she didn't like to use her brain. Anyway, she knew that if the young lady wanted to do this, there must be a reason for doing so.

Anyway, they are not as smart as Miss.

"That's true."

Qiu Shuang nodded, but she had made a plan in her heart. Since the lady was going to do it, she had to find Hou Si to pay close attention to the movements of all parties. Even if something bad happened, they could make preparations in advance.

Another ten days passed, and Lao Kang bought [-] shi of wheat everywhere.

It can be said that the wheat from all the villages and towns around the capital has been bought into the village.

At the same time, he also bought a lot of chickens, ducks and geese. Although it has not reached the [-] he said, it is already in the early [-]s.

During these ten days, Emperor Hongwen arranged for Wen Songtao and the eldest prince to visit the person in charge of the family in the capital.

As a result, the aristocratic family kept saying that there was no food.

Emperor Hongwen was very angry. Several times, he wished he could immediately order King Yun to mobilize an army to enter the mansions of the heads of the aristocratic families in the capital.

It's so annoying.

As the Son of Heaven, he has let people go over and over again, and the aristocratic family still doesn't give him face.

Is it impossible to ask him to go there in person?

In the imperial study room, Emperor Hongwen hadn't had a good rest recently, his spirits were quite weak, and his eyes were bloodshot.

"Wang De, go tell Gao Yanming to come to see me."

Not long after, Gao Yanming appeared in the imperial study.

"Gao Qing's family, the court has run out of food, what can you do?"

Hearing this, Gao Yanming pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "To tell you the truth, I have been thinking about this matter recently."

"There is a way, but it's not easy to implement."

"Oh? Tell me quickly."

Hearing that he had a solution, Emperor Hongwen was very pleasantly surprised.

"In the past few days, I have asked someone to investigate. There are still a lot of food in the homes of the nobles in the capital. Why don't your majesty ask them to borrow some emergency supplies?"

As soon as these words came out, the flame of hope that Emperor Hongwen had ignited just now was extinguished instantly, and he took a deep look at Gao Yanming, with deep meaning in his eyes.

This guy actually let him go to Xungui to borrow food.

Now in the court, who doesn't know that the food is in the hands of the aristocratic family. Although the nobles have food in their hands, how much can they have besides their own needs?

He went to Xungui to borrow food, and he would definitely be able to receive it, but what would those Xungui think?
Well, knowing that the family has food, your Majesty, instead of looking for the family, come to them.

Do you think that nobles like them are easier to bully than aristocratic families?

Xungui has made great contributions to Dongzhou, and the nature of Dongzhou is completely different, but what about the aristocratic family?

Could it be that they are uncles?On weekdays, he earns money by doing all kinds of domineering.

Nothing at all, these nobles are restricted in various ways, they can only watch others make money, do they really think they are all idiots?
"What about the family?"

Emperor Hongwen suddenly said this.

Gao Yanming didn't panic at all. As the highest official of the family in the court, he naturally knew how much the family had in hand.

Because there are many things, they are very safe, especially at this time, the court dare not touch them.

This is a good opportunity. Emperor Hongwen has been wanting to do something for the aristocratic family for the past two years, isn't it because Dongzhou is stable and has more things in his hand?

Now that God has given this opportunity, they naturally want to seize this opportunity and let Dongzhou's situation go backwards for several years.

The reason why he proposed to ask His Majesty to ask the nobles to borrow food is to put it bluntly because he wanted to make the nobles feel dissatisfied.

To weaken the power in the hands of Emperor Hongwen, he has no power, the family will be safe, and he will be safe.

"I went to the person in charge of the family a few days ago."

"To tell you the truth, Your Majesty, at the beginning of the drought, the minister's mansion opened warehouses and released a lot of food."

"Now the minister's family doesn't have a lot of food. There are so many people to support, it's not enough, so I thought about asking the family to borrow some food, but I couldn't borrow it."

"Although the aristocratic family purchased a lot of food this time, there are many children under the aristocratic family. In such a time, they have to support their own family members, so..."

Hearing this, Emperor Hongwen nodded calmly, and said, "I understand, you can step back."

Gao Yanming bowed his hands and left.

As soon as he left the imperial study, there was a crackling sound of teacups being smashed from behind.

Gao Yanming just smiled coldly.
