Imperial concubine always has good luck

"What?"

As soon as Lu Li heard that she wanted to find the steward, the cook was worried.

She suddenly stood up, then came to Li Rushu's side, and knelt at Li Rushu's feet with such a plop.

Then a shocking scene happened.

I saw that at this moment, the cook directly hugged Li Rusu's thigh. She cried.

"Your Highness, the imperial concubine's fault is mine. I'm alone. Please blame me. Don't go to the steward."

As she spoke, the cook cried more and more. Her face was full of snot and tears, and some could not cry clearly.

Just looking at the cook, Li Rusu was stunned. She blinked and wondered a little.

"Something's wrong. There must be some conspiracy?"

After the words fell to the ground, Li Rusu cleared his throat a little, increased his voice and asked the cook.

"Cook, no one has more power than the two of us in this palace. If you have any grievances, you can tell us both. Don't be afraid of anything outside. Can you understand me when I speak like this? "

Sure enough, after Li Rushu's voice fell to the ground, the cook stopped crying loudly, but sobbed quietly.

Looking at the cook like this, Li Rusu pursed his lips and added, "cook, I've already said this. If you don't grasp the opportunity, you'll have to bear any grievances by yourself."

At this moment, the cook seemed to have been touched. She immediately released her hand holding Li Rushu's thigh.

"What the imperial concubine said is very true. I'm old and confused."

Seeing that people could still listen to what they said, Li Rusu was a little relieved and then opened his mouth to her.

"Now, before the steward comes over, tell us what you have as soon as possible, so that we can be fair for you."

All of a sudden, with all kinds of helplessness, the cook really told the truth directly.

"It's true, princess. Because of the last great flood, the salt wells in this county were washed away, and there is no source of salt in our county."

Upon hearing what the Cook said, Lu Li and Li Rusu looked at each other. To be honest, they really didn't know such a thing.

However, Li Rushu was more concerned about why the cook kept it from them. At this time, Li Rushu nodded slightly and continued to ask.

"Then what does this matter have to do with why you begged for mercy like that and said you did it alone?"

When the cook heard this, she couldn't help sighing. She wiped the tears on her cheeks in response.

"The steward in the palace was worried that he would be blamed for our delay, so he ordered such people not to disclose to the two masters. What's the truth?"

After the words fell to the ground, the cook's voice choked. She begged to the two people very humbly.

"No matter what the two masters are, please don't dismiss me. I really didn't mean it."

Just listening to what the Cook said, Li Rushu was a little confused, "wait, cook, you forgot to tell us, what does this matter have to do with the steward?"

Hearing this, the cook naturally knew that she couldn't escape. She sighed secretly before she said it in her heart.

"Because I was worried that I was dismissed by the steward because of this matter and lost this job, so I covered up your highness and the imperial concubine in every way before."

After saying this, the Cook said to the two men, "my Lord, I really didn't disobey your mind. It's too dignified to be in charge. We really don't know how to tell the Lord about it. "

"So it is." Lu Li, who had been silent, couldn't help sighing at this moment.

But the housework in the palace is small.

Seeing that both masters reacted like this, the cook swallowed the words to her mouth again.

It's all right. Both masters are reasonable and will be able to deal with her leniently.

Thinking like this, the cook wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and sighed on her face.

It's not easy.

Lu Li and Li Rusu both felt that the people in the whole county had no salt to eat. This was the most shocking and urgent thing.

I don't know how long this situation has lasted. They know how much suffering these people should suffer.

If there is no salt for a long time, it may make the people sick again.

Just thinking about this, how long the people suffered because they didn't have salt to eat. Lu Li had some bad feelings in his heart.

He has experienced the hardships of the people. Now when he thinks about it, he feels that he can't stand the bitter days without salt. What's more, they are just a dish without salt.

What about the people in the county?

How long have they been suffering?

The two men looked at each other and saw the heaviness in each other's eyes.

With a slight sigh, Li Rushu couldn't help persuading, "Your Highness, the people don't have salt. This is a big event. Can we continue to drag on? No matter what, we have to think of a way."

Hearing this, Lu Li nodded slightly and responded.

"Don't worry, it is. I have a sense of propriety in this matter. "

It's only after such a long time that they know... The people at the bottom hide it so well!

A glimmer of light flashed in Lu Li's eyes. Naturally, he knew the priority of things. At this moment, he didn't think about it. He immediately ordered the bodyguard standing aside, "go and investigate this matter to see if there is any salt that can be transported from here."

When the bodyguard heard such an instruction, he didn't even think about it. He responded directly.

Seeing the bodyguard retreat, Lu Li reached out and pinched the center of his eyebrows. Li Rusu's face was not good. She also frowned because of the news of salt.

You say it's good. How can there be no salt all of a sudden?

The salt well was washed away. It was a natural disaster, but the steward knew it and didn't report it. It was a big deal.

It's just that there is no salt to eat, only one or two meals. The person in charge can deceive the lower level and deceive the upper level. Even if Lu Li can continue to bear this kind of subordinate, she can't bear it.

Thinking like this, Li Rushu narrowed his eyes slightly and made up his mind.

Unfaithful and unjust slaves, even if they are kept, are of no use. It's better to start and end directly. In this way, they can still be clean!
