The concubine is enchanting: the favorite princess

Chapter 220 Fengyao's Prestige

The prefect Lang Qi only looked at those beautiful carp complacently, he didn't pay attention to what Feng Yao's sigh meant.Seeing the master smiling, the attendant next to him hurriedly handed over a corn pancake to help the master please the eldest princess more.

Lang Qi broke open the corn cakes and threw them into the pool continuously, and those colorful carps rushed over to grab the food.For a while, the water splashed and the fish jumped wildly, so it was very lively.

Feng Yao frowned slightly, and glanced at the corn cakes in Lang Qi's hands getting smaller and smaller, and finally crushed them into fine pieces and fell into the belly of the fish. He couldn't help being surprised and said: "How can such a beautiful fish only eat these crude ones?" Pancakes? I think we should feed some steamed buns and snacks."

"Ah? That's not acceptable. Carp's intestines can't withstand too delicate food. In summer, it's best to feed them earthworms. In winter, corn cakes mixed with egg yolks are steamed, and it's good to feed them."

Feng Yao was taken aback: "There are egg yolks in this tortilla?"

"That's right. But the egg white is not good, and it's even more difficult to digest, so I can only scoop out the egg yolk separately, and it takes a lot of effort."

Feng Yao asked again: "Then how do we get the earthworms and bugs in summer? How many people will the prefect have to use to dig for these carp to eat?"

"Just issue a notice, and those who dig up earthworms can go to the prefect's mansion to exchange copper coins. Three copper coins longer than three inches; one copper coin under three inches, and two inches or more. Many people want to get more copper coins. Let the old people and children in the family rummage in the field all day, and at most they can get a hundred copper coins a day."

It seems that Lang Qi is quite satisfied with his cleverness.Looking at the carp in this pool, the churning water seems to have splashed on Feng Yao's heart, and the apex of the piercing heart felt cold.

Feng Yao no longer looked at the pool, only turned around and walked out quickly.He took the cotton coat from Ziying's hand in the cubicle, put it on, and walked out of the warm courtyard.

Zhuang Yi and Chief Li have been waiting outside the door, seeing Feng Yao's strange expression, they don't know what happened inside.But from Feng Yao's eyes, he could see some signs, they gathered together and asked, "What orders does the eldest princess have?"

Feng Yao smiled coldly and looked back.It just so happened that the prefect Lang Qi hurriedly followed.There was still some sweat on the forehead, and I don't know if it was because the warm courtyard was too hot, or because Feng Yao left suddenly for some reason, and was in a hurry.

Feng Yao waved his hand to Zhuang Yi and said: "Take the prefect of Mingyue City...Lang Qi, to this palace."

"Yes." Although Zhuang Yi didn't understand why Feng Yao suddenly wanted to arrest the eunuch, but just now Feng Yao's eyes were not friendly, so he didn't ask too much, first he pressed Lang Qi's shoulder, turned his arms Twist to the back.

The rest of the attendants were also captured by Feng Yao's guards.Only one of Lang Qi's masters was trembling with fright, and he was already limp on the ground, and almost peed his pants without doing anything.

"Eldest Princess?! What is the villain's fault?" Lang Qi was still confused, wondering why Feng Yao became so angry after watching Yu Yu for a while?Or was it because I didn't entertain well and didn't serve good food and wine first?

Feng Yao didn't even bother to take a second look at Lang Qi, and waved his hand: "Go and see how many cronies Lang Qi still has, arrest them all, and put them in prison first. As for his family members... they are only under house arrest. Just keep watch, don't act recklessly and scare women and children."

"Yes." The leaders of several guards led away.Not long after, a burst of crying was heard.Although Feng Yao told him not to be frightened, this is a change after all, and there is no one who can deal with it calmly.

Lang Qi didn't come back to his senses for a while, and when he probably understood the reason, he was brought to the main hall by Feng Yao.Lang Qi drooped his head like an eggplant beaten by frost, his small eyes stared nervously at Feng Yao who was sitting in the middle, and his body couldn't help shivering.

"Lang Qi, as the prefect of Mingyue City, you have built such a warm courtyard in this mansion. Look at your courtyard and pavilions. Which one is not luxurious and exquisite? It is not far behind the mansion of the prime minister in the capital. Yes. Such extravagance, how much is the fat of the people?"

When Feng Yao talked about his anger, he slapped the table heavily, and Lang Qi was shocked again.Kneeling on the ground, he kowtowed desperately and said: "The eldest princess is wronged. Lang Qi's ancestors have been in business for several generations, and the family property is quite rich. This mansion and courtyard are also properties left by his grandfather. They were not bought by Lang Qi after he took office."

"Oh? So, I really wronged you? Your Mingyue City is a transportation hub and a place where merchants must pass. But it is also a large warehouse for food supplies and storage in several surrounding towns. But you Tell me, since the autumn floods, when there are snowstorms and natural disasters, how many disaster victims have you resettled as the prefect?"

After Feng Yao finished speaking, Lang Qi's round face twitched twice, and the corners of his mouth drooped, as if he had run out of words.

Feng Yao said again: "From the moment I entered the city, I have carefully noticed that although there are many shops in your place, the people are not necessarily rich. Passers-by who come and go are panicked when they see officials blocking the road, and they are afraid to avoid it. Only some Those who are good and brave just wait and see around for a while, but their eyes are full of contempt and contempt. Just imagine, if you are not domineering in this Mingyue City, how can the people not trust me as a pacifier , dare not approach? From this point of view, I, Fengjue Guo Mingjun, and my reputation as an upright official will also be defeated by you."

This hat is buttoned too big.Lang Qi was even more frightened when he heard this.But he didn't kowtow any more, but raised his head boldly, looked at Feng Yao fixedly, laughed suddenly after a long while, and said: "I heard...the eldest princess was at odds with His Highness the crown prince when she was in the capital? The eldest The princess came to Mingyue City this time, and she accused the officials a lot, but because the officials are..."

With a sound of "pa", Feng Yao raised his foot and kicked over a chair next to him.He also frightened Lang Qi back at what he said later.

Before Lang Qi could speak again, Feng Yao gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay to be a corrupt official, but a villain who sells his master and seeks glory. How can a petty official like you talk about the right and wrong of the capital? After all, the crown prince and the palace are still Brothers and sisters are not allowed to be spoken by outsiders."

After finishing speaking, Feng Yao said to Zhuang Yi who was standing at the side: "Use your sword to cut off his tongue."

Zhuang Yi was taken aback, but when he looked into Feng Yao's eyes, he suddenly remembered that when he was in the paddock, Feng Yao was still a weak girl of fourteen or five years old, and she once broke a horse's leg with her own hands, and now she is full of glory The eldest princess, how much pity does she have for a corrupt official who broke the law.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Yi stepped forward, the sword at his waist was out of its sheath.

Lang Qi was trembling in shock, and he never thought that Feng Yao would suddenly attack and order someone to cut his tongue.In a dazed effort, Zhuang Yi had already squeezed his jaw open, and raised his sword into...
