Chapter 154 Forced purchase of food
Chapter 154 Forced purchase of food
Just when Xiao Qingqing was still scared and thinking about when she would land, the solid ground beneath her feet made her open her eyes and relax her hanging heart.
"Huh, we're down now." Xiao Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, then glared at Feng Molin angrily, "You did it on purpose?"
She seriously suspected that Feng Molin was retaliating against her for giving him ugly makeup, so he took her away using Qinggong without saying hello.
Feng Molin looked innocent: "I don't have that."
She wouldn't believe this nonsense, but she didn't pursue it further.
On the other side, Gao Haoran's carriage slowly stopped at the door of Beihuang Prince's Mansion.
When Qingtang saw Gao Haoran coming, he hurried out and stopped Gao Haoran at the gate.
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!" Qingtang hurriedly saluted respectfully.
Gao Haoran nodded, motioned for her to get up, and then said: "I am here to see your prince and princess. I wonder if the prince and princess are here?"
Qingtang's eyes flickered, trying to calm down, and said: "Well, Your Highness, I'm really sorry. The prince and princess are not feeling well today and they don't see anyone else."
Gao Haoran, who was about to go in, was stunned for a moment. Both of them felt uncomfortable. Isn't this just a coincidence?
"Then let me go in and see them." Gao Haoran said as he prepared to go in.
Qingtang was immediately frightened and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Your Highness, the prince and the princess have already rested. Your Highness should come back another day."
Seeing Qingtang's reaction, Gao Haoran was puzzled and asked in confusion: "What happened to the prince and the princess?"
"Well, Your Highness, you also know that our princess has been treating the victims of the disaster and fell down from exhaustion. As for our prince, he has always been frail, so he fell ill." Qingtang smiled awkwardly, thinking quickly in his head. There are various reasons and ways to deal with it.
Gao Haoran didn't have any doubts. He also knew about Xiao Qingqing's medical treatment for the victims during this period.
"In that case, I won't bother you." Gao Haoran did not continue to pester, turned around and returned to the carriage.
Watching the carriage slowly leave, Qingtang's heart finally relaxed.
But seeing Gao Haoran's disappointed look when he left, she really felt guilty.
On the carriage, Gao Haoran sighed. During this period, he had been recuperating at his residence and would also listen to some things about the outside world. The queen also asked him to have more contact with Feng Molin and Xiao Qingqing. Who knows what happened today? Once I came here, I was rejected.
I don’t know if I’m really feeling unwell, or if I just have an excuse to not want to see him.
……
At this time, Xiao Qingqing and Feng Molin were walking on the street. Xiao Qingqing took a look at the reactions of the people around her. It was obvious that no one recognized her, nor did Feng Molin beside her.
While passing by a village, a noise attracted their attention.
"That seems to be a servant of the Duke of Zhenguo, right?" Xiao Qingqing saw it from a distance and couldn't help but ask Feng Molin.
Feng Molin nodded: "Let's go over and take a look."
"It's an honor for you to be willing to buy your food now. You don't care who we are. Hand over the food quickly!" The servants of the Zhenguo Government stared fiercely at the villagers in front of them.
He didn't look like a servant of the Zhenguo Duke's mansion. Instead, he looked like a bandit.
"But, the price we mentioned before is not like this. The price you gave us is really too low. Now we are all short of food. The price of food has already risen, but you gave us such a small amount of money." The villagers responded to the money they gave. Very dissatisfied.
"You have to sell this food today even if you don't want to!" the servant said fiercely, even wanting to fight for it. Seeing this, the villagers hurriedly stopped him.
Seeing that these villagers were so ungrateful, the servants looked at each other and prepared to beat them.
Xiao Qingqing and Feng Molin saw this scene and hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Just as the stick in his hand was about to fall on the villagers, a sudden side kick kicked the leader's servant away.
The others were shocked and stared at the two people who suddenly appeared.
"Who are you? You dare to interfere in our affairs, you are seeking death!" They are members of the Zhenguo Palace, and no one has ever dared to treat them like this.
"It's you who are being beaten. They don't sell food, but you force them to sell it. Why are you so shameless!" Xiao Qingqing rolled her eyes at them and said coldly.
Nowadays, food is a rare commodity, and the price is naturally high.
"Then it's not your two outsiders' turn to take care of it. Do you know that you are going against the Zhenguo Palace!" The servants moved the Zhenguo Palace out directly.
If it were an ordinary person hearing this, they might be scared and not want to care about it.
But they were undaunted.
Xiao Qingqing even sneered: "So what if the Zhenguo Government Office can buy and sell by force? We will take care of this matter today and advise you to leave quickly, otherwise you will be beaten later!"
Xiao Qingqing's eyes fell on Feng Molin.
Several servants looked at Feng Molin and were a little scared. They had already seen Feng Molin's power just now. If they really fought, they would definitely not be his opponent.
"If you dare to offend the Zhenguo government, just wait!" The servants looked at each other and prepared to evacuate, not forgetting to say harsh words when they left.
"They only know how to fake the power of a tiger." Looking at the sound of their escape, Xiao Qingqing's face was full of disdain.
Then he looked at the villagers behind him and asked, "What's going on? Why do they forcefully buy your food?"
A woman at the head sighed: "This is all our fault. If we hadn't been greedy for such a little money, we wouldn't be in this situation today."
"Before, there were wealthy businessmen who bought grain from us at high prices, but the people from the Zhenguo Government offered us a higher price, so we broke the contract and agreed to the Zhenguo Government. But who would have thought that the people from the Zhenguo Government would now lower their prices? The price must be purchased from us at a low price. If we don’t sell, they will beat us.”
After listening, Xiao Qingqing was a little speechless, but this also echoed the style of doing things in the Zhenguo Palace.
"Thanks to you today, thank you so much!" The villagers said their thanks one after another.
But the woman was worried: "It's just that you helped us today, but I'm afraid you'll also offend the Zhenguo government. They won't let you go easily."
"Don't worry, we will solve this ourselves." Xiao Qingqing comforted them.
As for the Zhenguo Government Office, I'm afraid I won't be able to find them if I look for them.
At this time, an old man stepped forward, with a troubled expression on his face, and begged: "You two, we have seen how powerful you are, but from now on, the Zhenguo Government will definitely come to us for trouble. Can you help us?" , otherwise it would be difficult for us people to survive."
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but beg for help, and even talked about their difficulty with tears and runny noses.
