Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Baili pouted slightly, "You didn't say it was General Wang."

"You wouldn't know if I didn't tell you." Defang pointed to the food, "There are so many, who can eat it."

"Then. If General Duowang can't eat alone."

Defang looked at Baili, "You want to piss me off"

"Okay," Concubine Di said, "It's clear that the prince himself didn't make it clear, so how can he blame Baili? Besides, there's nothing wrong with making the food richer. If General Wang doesn't come, let's enjoy it as a family. We can't eat it. Gu Guanshi can be distributed to other people, and Baili is on duty today, so he can eat better at night."

"Yes, father," Wei Xu said, "You see, we have all returned home, and the children are all at the table. Such a good meal will not be wasted."

Wei Xian nodded, "Brother is right, father, my son should eat more and leave less, haha"

"Father" Wei Ling smiled and said, "Every time you finish talking about Baili, you always reward him with something. Is this an apology?"

Defang snorted and picked up the chopsticks, "Why am I a dignified prince apologizing to him, you are all protecting Baili, no one hurts me, there is no reason to justify it, eat it, eat it."

Concubine Di and the children smiled helplessly, and Baili hurriedly filled a bowl of rice for Defang. Maybe it was because she was too hungry, or maybe the food was too good. Defang ate three bowls of rice and drank another bowl. Soup, Defang put down the bowl, leaned on the back of the chair, hummed muffledly, "I'm too full, I'm a bit full."

"Is it okay to eat so much all at once?" Concubine Di pulled Defang up, "The concubine will accompany you around the mansion, otherwise you will feel uncomfortable at night."

Defang rubbed his stomach and nodded, "Well, let's go." Just after taking two steps, he suddenly thought of something, "Oh, yes, Xu'er, go to bed early, and I will go to see Bangbuzhi and the others tomorrow, and I will be with my father in the afternoon Go and see Li Xiang."

"Yes, father." Wei Xu nodded, "Do you want to invite the national players to go with you?"

"No need, His Majesty has already sent an imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment." Defang straightened her back, "Well, madam, let's go."

Defang and Concubine Di walked slowly in the mansion, Baili and Ke'er followed behind, Defang looked up at the sky, "It's still so sultry, I don't know when the next rain will fall."

"Your Majesty has prayed for rain many times, but it seems that the effect is not as expected. There is a drought in various places, and the people's harvest this year may decrease a lot. His Majesty must be very worried."

"Yes, if the drought in various places does not decrease, this year's tax revenue will definitely be affected. At present, Beiguan is preparing for war, and the grain and grass reserves cannot make any mistakes. But as far as the current situation is concerned." Defang shook her head worriedly, "I don't know if it is possible If it reaches [-]% of previous years, if this cannot be guaranteed, grain and grass must be transported from the south as soon as possible, but the journey of thousands of miles, even if the water and land are parallel, it will take at least three months to collect the grain and grass of tens of thousands of horses at the border."

"Didn't the Changping warehouse near the capital accumulate a lot of food?"

"It's true that there are a lot of food, but it's only used to relieve the people in the capital and surrounding areas during the famine. If all of them are transported to the border, the people in the capital will be unstable. If any unforeseen events happen during the period, it will be difficult for the imperial court to help the people."

"Then why didn't your majesty mobilize food and grass to be transported to Beiguan earlier?"

"The south doesn't know the danger of Beiguan. If grain and grass are collected in a short period of time, I am afraid that the people in the south will panic. What your majesty means is that if there is still no rain in the first half month, then you have to issue an order to all the people in the south. Lu Yunliang went north."

"The weather is sweltering and the sun is hot, people's hearts are impetuous, and Li Xiang is in the house again. His Majesty must be very depressed?"

"Yes, if the nectar does not fall, the heat will not go away. What His Majesty hopes most now is for the rain to come from the sky. As long as it rains, many problems will be solved."
