Chapter 962
"I?"

Li Yujiao pointed at herself in surprise, "Your Majesty, are you saying that I am not wrong?"

The expression on Qi Zhan's face was very serious: "Yes, that's right! It's you, Li Yujiao!"

"What the hell is going on?" Xie Hejiang knew that Qi Zhan would not joke about such things at this moment, and he began to lose his mind.

Qi Zhan sighed, got up and said, "Come with me."

After finishing speaking, he took Xie Hejiang and Li Yujiao to his study.

"Severe flood in the south and severe drought in the north, do you know about this?" Qi Zhan closed the door and turned to ask Li Yujiao and Xie Hejiang.

"Flood? Drought?" Li Yujiao pondered for a moment, "Is this year?"

"Of course it's this year," Qi Zhan frowned. "Who didn't know that the weather was good last year? You bought so many lands and built a lot of granaries all over the country. How could you not know about this?"

Li Yujiao was silent for a moment when she heard this, and then said, "Do you know everything about me?"

Qi Zhan frowned: "From the time I brought He Jiang back from the northwest, you should know that it is impossible for the emperor to keep He Jiang alive without watching your every move."

"The emperor also knows about my property in various places?" Li Yujiao asked a little uneasy.

"The emperor doesn't know yet, because I took over the matter of watching you. We are friends who have experienced life and death together. If you don't want the emperor to know, I will naturally help you keep it secret."

After hearing this, Li Yujiao showed gratitude, and said sincerely, "Thank you, my lord."

Qi Zhan waved his hand: "Now is not the time to talk about this. Since your property is spread all over the country, why did you react like that when I told you about the severe flood and drought just now?"

When Li Yujiao heard the news just now, she quickly recalled the news that Xie Feng had reported to her in her mind.

Now she suddenly felt a little startled, and said: "I know that there is a flood, but I don't know how big the flood is that the son said?"

"To what extent?" Qi Zhan leaned on the back of the chair a little slumped, and said with a sigh, "There are as many as 50 million people affected. The flood in the south is worse than ever before! It is rumored that every ten steps will starve to death!"

After hearing this, Li Yujiao was shocked. She had never heard of such a thing in two lifetimes.

Regardless of whether the rumors are exaggerated or not, one starved to death within ten steps is simply...!
She couldn't help but ask again: "Is this year? Are you sure?"

Qi Zhan frowned: "What's wrong with you? I didn't even change my court clothes when I came back, and I didn't even drink a sip of water. Will I tell you lies?"

Li Yujiao's heart became even colder: "If Shizi didn't lie to me, then someone else lied to me."

"Who? Who is the person who manages these grain-producing fields for you?"

Li Yujiao glanced at Xie Hejiang subconsciously, and slowly said two words: "Xie Feng."

Qi Zhan took a deep breath and nodded: "Sure enough. Do you know who died in Cangjiao Pavilion this time?"

Xie Hejiang shook his head: "My son, please tell me."

"It is Yin, the grain administrator of the Lianghu area. The two lakes are rich in products, and the grain output accounts for nearly one-third of the total annual grain output of Daqi. Now that there are natural disasters in the north and the south, the emperor wants to open warehouses to release grain. Yin, the grain administrator of the Lianghu area He refused to open the warehouse for a long time, and the emperor ordered him to go to Beijing to express his love.

Now that he died, the emperor knew that there were more than 20 catties of grain originally stored in the Guangdong and Guangxi regions, but after the warehouse was opened, there were only less than [-] catties left! "
