The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 385 385. Bad news

Feng Jinlin felt very disdainful, but fortunately everything went towards the prince's vision.

"Now that the matter has been decided, I will take my leave first. Someone will naturally come to the Cao family head to discuss it as soon as something comes up."

Feng Jinlin was not in charge of food payment, so it was not easy for him to interfere.

The head of the Cao family nodded quickly, "Don't worry, Prime Minister Feng County. With my Cao family here, there will be no mistakes in taking care of this food payment."

"That's very good."

Liang Quanbin was seriously injured and fell ill. Feng Jinlin ignored the matter. Officials in Jinling City usually dealt with them a lot, so naturally someone would intervene to stop him.

The Cao family can be said to have taken advantage of the right time, place, and people.

Therefore, everyone could see the smile on his face when he left the Governor's Mansion.

Ordinary people would not know that their wealth and life depended on this indisciplined person, but what King Ding wanted was his indiscipline.

If the sore is not broken, how can it be used as medicine?

The Cao family is the needle that picks out sores!

At this moment, Huo Chong had been imprisoned in a secret cell in a small courtyard for several days. During this period, except for three fixed meals a day, no one came at all.

The other party didn't seem to be in a hurry to interrogate him, nor was he worried that he would think about it. He just kept him locked up, as if he wanted to lock him up until he died of old age.

In the beginning, he would keep yelling and cursing, but now that his throat was broken and no one came, he naturally didn't bother to worry about it anymore.

The only person I am worried about is my brother-in-law Zhu Hong. I wonder how he is doing in the prison of the naval camp?

When it was time to eat again, someone from the other party came through the door.

Even the dishes have not changed. There are two dishes and one soup, but the portion is a bit insufficient.

It wasn't enough to starve him to death, but it was enough to leave him with little energy to struggle.

This move is very powerful in defeating others without fighting.

The person who came to deliver the food always hid in the dark, so he has never seen who the person is so far.

Picking up the bowl, Huo Chong was as quick as before. Soon, the small amount of food went into Huo Chong's stomach.

Su Cheng and Yang Zhao standing outside were a little curious.

"The prince kidnapped him back. I thought the interrogation was going to start immediately. I didn't expect that he was detained for so long without mentioning it. Could it be that he forgot?"

Yang Zhao rolled his eyes, "When will you forget this when you see the prince?"

"makes sense."

In their eyes, King Ding is like a god of war who cannot figure out but always has a gap in his chest. As long as he has a crush on someone, no matter what method he uses, he has a way to make the other party unable to resist and attract them truthfully.

In this regard, it is much more powerful than those of them who can only use violence.

The two of them stood for a while and then left the small courtyard. At this moment, the King Ding they were talking about was playing chess with Feng Jinyao.

After the last boating trip, Feng Jinyao had rejected King Ding for several days.

Not to mention him, Yang Zhao and even Su Cheng have noses that are not noses and eyes that are not eyes.

Only when he saw his second brother Feng Jinlin did he relax a little.

Although she understood in her heart that Prince Ding's move was for the good of her father and the Feng family, she still felt awkward.

After thinking about it for the past few days, it has become a lot clearer.

"At that time, I did not have the same thoughts towards A-Yao as I do now. If I had known that I would fall in love with you, I would not have attacked my uncle. If A-Yao still feels angry, why don't you stab me?"

After saying that, he took out a sharp short knife and placed it in front of Feng Jinyao.

The sincerity of his attitude made Feng Jinyao speechless.

Fortunately, she was not the kind of person who couldn't distinguish between right and wrong, so she had no choice but to forgive Xiao Tingyi.

Since then, Xiao Tingyi has become more and more aggressive.

Every day they would bring fruits or some other food. They were not expensive things, but they had a Jiangnan flavor.

Today's game of chess was obtained by him using fresh seasonal fruits.

Feng Jinyao's chess skills were not as outstanding as Xu Ge's, so Xiao Tingyi was naturally superior when playing chess with her.

But her advantage was that she had unique ideas, and she always had some clever tricks to contain the king's black men, so after going back and forth, the two of them became more interested in playing chess.

After getting used to his appearance, no one in the courtyard said anything.

Yunxu, in particular, always manages to find the right time to prepare tea and snacks.

After going back and forth, everyone took it for granted that Xiao Tingyi appeared next to Feng Jinyao.

Feng Jinyao herself gradually got used to it.

For some reason, after the rafting trip, her thoughts about Prince Ding were a little different.

In the past, she thought this person was too unfathomable and didn't want to cause trouble, but she saw everything that happened these days.

The dignified King Ding never used power to pressure her, but instead gave her the greatest freedom.

Accompany her to be crazy and laugh with her.

Most of the time, she didn't speak, and Xiao Tingyi seemed to be able to understand her thoughts, and even sent her a small pot of drunken whiteheads that was hard to find late one night.

Feng Jinyao is not a piece of wood, so she will naturally be happy and grateful.

Once these emotions accumulate and accumulate, they will naturally change.

Although she didn't admit it herself, Xiao Tingyi noticed it.

So when doing these things, you have to be more diligent.

She won't be overly intimate, and her life will always be surrounded by opportunities for her to exist.

The scenery outside was just right, and the two people under the bright windows in the house were enjoying themselves like the immortals in the painting.

Unfortunately, Xu Lin came in a hurry and broke this beauty with a serious look.

"Your Majesty."

"explain."

"The news from the Southwest Army said that there was a flood."

When the word "flood" came out, Feng Jinyao paused.

In the last life, when floods occurred in the southwest, there were countless casualties. Refugees gathered in Shuzhou, Qianzhou and other places to cause trouble and looted all the government granaries, but there was still not enough to fill their stomachs.

Running around for this reason, several nearby counties and states were robbed a lot.

She heard Wen Mengsheng mention it by chance, but at that time she only felt that the refugees were pitiful, but she had never actually done anything to help them.

"Has the food raised by my grandfather and the Chi family arrived in the southwest?"

"I've entered the country, but I'm stuck outside Shuzhou. I still have a few days before I can enter the city."

"Tell my grandfather and the head of the Chi family to sell it to the local gentry and nobles for at least three times the price. The higher the price, the better."

As soon as these words came out, Xu Lin was stunned.

He always thought that the prince was hoarding food just in case the refugees fled, but who knew that he really wanted to "make the country difficult to make money"!

I didn't understand for a while.

On the other hand, Feng Jinyao next to her seemed to understand her thoughts, so she asked.

"Does the prince want to attract other merchants to follow suit by selling grain at high prices, so that they can all transport grain to the southwest?"

Xiao Tingyi smiled and said, "Ayao is the only one who knows me."

After hearing this, Xu Lin understood.

These nearly 40 million tons of grain can alleviate the difficulties of the southwest for a while, but it cannot be sustained for a long time. Now is the harvest season, and after a flood occurred, there will naturally be no harvest.
