On the wedding night, the space doctor made the crippled king stand up

Chapter 127 Official Corruption
  Feng Molin waved his hand towards Feng Yi, muttered a few words, and Feng Yi nodded and left.

When he came back again, he had a food box in his hand.

Here, Xiao Qingqing was almost busy. She breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Feng Molin's direction and prepared to go there, when she saw Feng Yi walking over.

"Princess, the prince asked me to buy this and give it to these children." Feng Yi handed over the food box.

Seeing that it was full of pastries, Xiao Qingqing smiled. Unexpectedly, he looked cold, but he still cared about these children in his heart.

"Everyone is coming to eat some pastries. This is what the uncle just bought for everyone." Xiao Qingqing greeted, sharing the pastries for these children.

When they heard that it was Feng Molin who bought it, the children who were originally afraid of him became much less frightened. Some of the bolder children even didn't forget to say thank you.

Every child received a cake, but they were reluctant to eat it and put it away carefully, for fear that they would never be able to eat such cakes again.

Xiao Qingqing didn't stop her. Seeing that it was getting late, she said, "This shop is currently empty. Since you are homeless, you can live here for now."

After all, they were still children, and she couldn't bear it.

The children were so happy when they heard that they could stay here tonight.

Before leaving, Xiao Qingqing did not forget to give a few instructions and left with Feng Molin.

On the carriage, Xiao Qingqing met many beggars along the way, and she couldn't help frowning. There seemed to be twice as many beggars in the city as before.

"I heard that many refugees have appeared in the city during this period." Feng Molin said in the carriage.

Xiao Qingqing also looked away and sighed: "There are indeed many begging people on the street. Those people don't look like beggars. Maybe these are the refugees you are talking about."

"What kind of situation do you think caused the influx of these refugees?" Feng Molin asked.

"Famine, famine, and bandits are nothing more than natural and man-made disasters that have caused the displacement of these people." Xiao Qingqing analyzed and said casually.

However, after what Feng Molin said, he thought of the children in the shop. Many of them looked well-educated. It was obvious that these children were also part of the refugees. Perhaps they had lost their parents because of the disaster. Now I can only fend for myself.

Thinking that their originally happy home was gone, Xiao Qingqing felt heartbroken for them.

"It's just that I didn't hear where the disaster happened." As for those children, she did not ask.

They were all just children, and now they were reduced to little beggars. They were already feeling uncomfortable. Asking about their past now would undoubtedly make things worse.

While the two were talking, the carriage also stopped at the gate of the palace. Xiao Qingqing pushed a wheelchair with Feng Molin into the palace. Upon seeing this, Butler Chen immediately had someone prepare another meal and waited for the two of them to sit down.

Along the way, Xiao Qingqing was still thinking about the refugees, and recalling what Feng Molin said, she seemed to have discovered something. After sitting down, she couldn't help but ask: "My lord, regarding the refugees, are you right?" What do you know?"

From the beginning to the end, Feng Molin looked indifferent when he asked questions about the refugees, and seemed to be asking for information. If he didn't know about this matter, she wouldn't believe it. "If it's not convenient to say it, you don't have to say it, Your Majesty." Thinking that he didn't say it directly, Xiao Qingqing could still understand it and didn't forget to add it.

"It's not a big deal, and it's not that I can't let you know." Feng Molin said calmly, "It's because of the corruption of officials that the river burst its banks, and so many people are suffering."

Feng Molin briefly told it.

Throughout the ages, there have been countless such things. It is always the officials who benefit, and the only people who suffer.

It's just that there is no news about such a big thing as the river bursting its banks.

Xu understood what Xiao Qingqing was thinking at this moment, Feng Molin continued: "Now those officials are still trying their best to suppress the news. I think the news about the river bursting its banks will be spread to the capital soon."

"Such corrupt officials should be punished because they have made countless people suffer." Xiao Qingqing was angry thinking about the scars on those children who were not fed or clothed every day.

"This kind of thing has been common in all dynasties. When can these corrupt officials be completely eradicated?" But she knew in her heart that people were all for profit, and corrupt officials could not be eliminated, so she could only sigh deeply.

However, these words put a hint of suspicion in Feng Molin's plain expression. Even though there are records in ancient books, the history is only a few hundred years old, so why does it feel like she has experienced many such things from her mouth.

Sometimes, she always gives herself a strange feeling, but she can't put it into words.

"Okay, it's time to eat. The food is cold." Feng Molin reminded him.

Only then did Xiao Qingqing use her chopsticks. She had been helping the children before, but she didn't even have time to eat, and now she was already starving to death.

Just when she was about to move her chopsticks, the rice in the bowl stopped her, and an idea emerged in her mind.

"Now that a disaster has occurred, I am afraid that by the time this news reaches the capital, the price of food in the city will also rise. By then, I am afraid that many people will not be able to afford food. I want to take advantage of the fact that the food price has not increased yet. When the price is high, stock up more food so that we can help more people in the future." Xiao Qingqing expressed her thoughts.

When disaster strikes, those businessmen only have interests in their eyes. How could they let go of such an opportunity to make a fortune for the country?

"It's just that I don't know much about buying food, and I'm worried that I will be cheated out of extra money, so I still hope that the prince can help and let people purchase food. Don't worry, I will pay for the money to buy food." Xiao Qingqing said out of his own concerns.

Hearing that she was so considerate of the people, Feng Molin raised the corners of his mouth with a satisfied smile: "Okay, I will ask someone to handle this matter. As for the money issue, you don't have to worry about it. I haven't yet As for not being able to even afford the money to buy food.”

After hearing this, Xiao Qingqing quickly refused, knowing that he had misunderstood her: "Your Majesty, I didn't mean that. Since I want to do good things for the people, how can you come up with this money? I have money. "

"You and I are one husband and wife, why do you say such things?" Feng Molin's tone increased, with dissatisfaction.

"Now the emperor is very suspicious of the prince. In the current situation, if the prince is involved, I am afraid that it will leave a scandal for others and make people hold on to it. It will not be good for the prince. It is better for the prince not to get involved in rescuing the people this time. That's good." Xiao Qingqing analyzed the current situation for him and signaled him not to act rashly.
