Chapter 724 Disaster Relief 2
Si Yaowei nodded silently and said, "Something has happened and it's a little troublesome. Third brother, you go to the study with me first, and I'll tell you later."

Si Yaowei frowned and said, seeing that he was in the yard now, and there were maids and other idlers not far away.

Si Yaojin didn't object, so he helped Bai Lai and took her to the study. Seeing this, Si Yaowei couldn't help frowning, "Her?"

"Of course she also wants to go and listen together. At this time, second brother, you don't want people to know what happened, do you?"

"That's not true, that's all, let's go." After saying this, he walked towards the study with ease.

After entering the study, he sat down straight on the chair, and then saw Si Yaojin close the door.

Seeing this scene, he spoke with confidence, "I received news today that the grain sent to Laiyang City was robbed by bandits."

"What?" Frowning, although Si Yaojin was definitely not going to be peaceful this time, she didn't expect that something would happen so soon. It's a big deal that the disaster relief food was robbed?
Si Yaowei knew that his third brother definitely didn't want to see such a thing happen, but when it happened, it happened, and he didn't want to escape.

Nodding his head, he pondered and said again, "The thing is like this, because there are too many places where we need to deliver the relief food, so we can't deploy too many troops to escort the food, so we can only Let someone escort you to a similar boundary, and let the people over there send someone out to hand over."

After a pause, he continued, "However, something happened like this. It happened to be the night before the delivery of this batch of grain. The people we sent were all stunned by bandits, and then all the grain was robbed. Those mountain bandits When the thieves had just retreated for a while, the magistrate of Laiyang City came with officers and soldiers."

"So you're suspicious?"

"Yes."

"Brother, you don't just want to tell me this, do you?"

Si Yaowei nodded, "That's right, I want you to go over and investigate this matter, it's best to find out the truth, if the magistrate of Laiyang City really colluded with bandits, you can kill chickens and monkeys by the way, let People all over the world can see that our royal people are not so easy to fool."

Si Yaojin's face was serious, he pondered for a while and said, "I will investigate seriously, but should I bring some food along this trip, after all, this disaster relief still needs food."
Si Yaowei's complexion was a little bad at this time, he was silent for a while and said something.

"The situation is not good. We have opened a granary, but you also know that our good brothers caused us a lot of trouble when we seized power. At least the granary where the grain was stored was burned down. Now the granary is filled with newly harvested grain in the past two years, not much at all, and we have already distributed it when we opened the granary, so there is really no grain left."

This kind of news is really not a good thing for them. The batch of food has been lost, and when they go to the border of Laiyang, they don't know where it was sold. It may be difficult to come back, so they There must be a new batch of grain now, but...

Frowning, both of them are a little sad, where are they going to get food.
