Father's Farmer's Wife: Farming Makes a Fortune

Chapter 353 The Vicious Dog Bites the Dog ([-])

Qin Tinghan remained silent, leaned back, stroked her chin with her fingers and thought for a while, her cold eyes gradually eased, she looked at Fu Tonghua and said indifferently: "Go down." Her tone was unusually calm.

Fu Tonghua's half-kneeling body froze, looking very surprised, such a calm Qin Tinghan made him unbelievable, although it was said that he had divorced Nanmen Yue, but it was obvious that he still cared about her. Looking at Nanmen Yue, he was able to be so calm when rumors spread outside.

It was really unpredictable. Although I was full of doubts in my heart, I still stood up and bowed my body and retreated.

Fu Tonghua retreated, and the room became quiet. Shanying stood there for a while, but still didn't see Qin Tinghan move. He slightly raised his eyes to look at him, but saw his master's handsome face like white jade There is a faint smile hidden.

He was fascinated by watching it for a while, but at this juncture, his master was able to laugh out loud, which made him really shocked and puzzled.

The two were silent for a moment, Qin Tinghan stood up first.

"Just explain what the king ordered first, and then play the rest by ear." He ordered Shanying, and he got up and went out first.

Shanying nodded, followed Qin Tinghan to tell him just now, and began to write the creed.

At night, the capital city was covered by dark clouds and the moon. After a few cool winds, lightning flashed across the sky. After a while, there was a torrential downpour.

The night rain enveloped the entire capital until the morning of the second day.

Because of the torrential rain, this morning's morning court was avoided. At dawn, Yan Qing, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, lazily got up from the house of the fourth concubine, and was served by the servants, washing and dressing. The man brought the breakfast, but the housekeeper hurried into the room to report:

"My lord, my lord is not good. The county magistrate of Suizhong sent an urgent letter just now, saying that Suizhong had been torrentially raining for two days. The Suijiang dam couldn't withstand the rapid torrents. It was washed away last night. Several villages under the dam had already been destroyed. Submerged, the county magistrate is waiting for instructions from your lord."

Hearing this, Chu Yanqing panicked, how could he have any intention of having breakfast: "Quick! Prepare the horse, I want to go to Suizhong to see it myself!" If the situation is really as serious as the county magistrate reported, then he is really doomed up.

At the beginning of last month, Wei Yancai told him to pay attention to the situation in Suizhong, saying that Naqin Tinghan would make some movement. Nearly a month later, he thought that Naqin Tinghan was just boasting. Then he relaxed his vigilance, who knew that he beat himself so hard that he couldn't catch up.

Fortunately, all the people under Suizhong were his own people, so he had to deal with this matter before it was revealed.

According to Qin Tinghan's arrangement, Shan Ying was waiting outside the gate of Chu's mansion at this moment. Seeing Chu Yanqing leaving the mansion on horseback, he hurried back to the palace, and quickly wrote a letter for Xin Falcon to send to him. A night in Suizhong.

During the three-hour journey from the capital to Suizhong, Xin Falcon was far faster than Chu Yanqing's fast horse.After Ye Herong received the creed brought by the letter falcon, he started to carry out the second step of the plan.

Most of the supplies looted from Wei Yancai's granary last time were transported back to Qinjiazhuang, and the remaining small part was divided into several parts and placed in several places in Suizhong.

After Na Chu Yanqing arrived in Suizhong, Ye Herong arranged for several Qinjiazhuang brothers to donate all the supplies in the Suizhong warehouse as merchants for the drought and flood.

Although Ye Herong didn't understand what Qin Tinghan's intention was, he still obeyed the order. Qin Tinghan's willingness to give her the task meant that he hadn't completely abandoned her. Well, maybe you can go back to him.

After Chu Yanqing arrived in Suizhong, he went directly to the Yamen. After seeing the county magistrate, the two locked themselves in the room to discuss matters. After knowing the number of people affected by the flood and the situation of the disaster, Chu Yanqing's face became more and more uneasy. obvious.

Wei Yancai has already scooped up all the supplies sent by the capital as spares. At this time, it is impossible to apply for the transfer of supplies from the imperial court. In the past, we could have borrowed some from Wei Yancai’s granary, but Wei Yancai just arrived at the beginning of the month. At that time, all the supplies had already been robbed.

Chu Yanqing frowned in pain, and was caught in a dilemma for a while. Now the homeless people who suffered from floods were gathered outside the city gate. If he didn't go out as soon as possible to appease him, he was afraid that the incident would become more and more troublesome.

When Chu Yanqing was at a loss as to what to do, a small yamen servant hurried in: "My lords, there was a man outside the yamen who claimed to be a businessman from Suizhong who asked to see him. Affected people donate some materials."

Hearing the great news, Chu Yanqing stood up excitedly: "Quick! Quick, bring people in." There is no limit to the road.

"Go back to your lord, the man left the supplies and left his name in a hurry."

"Oh, there are such strange people?"

The speaker was County Magistrate Liu, who was over half a century old. After resting his chin and thinking for a while, he stood up and whispered in Chu Yanqing's ear.

After hearing this, Chu Yanqing was overjoyed. He nodded and acquiesced to the magistrate Liu's proposal from time to time. After the two discussed in the house for a while, they left from the yamen and took the so-called supplies donated by the merchants to appease the affected people.

He had been busy in Suizhong until it was almost three o'clock before returning to the capital in a hurry. He changed his clothes and went to the court without thinking about rest. His subordinate Wang Zhongcai was impeached.

"My Majesty, nearly a hundred people were killed in the sudden flood in Suizhong yesterday, and hundreds of people were left homeless. When Mr. Chu learned that the matter was so serious, he actually lied and went alone. Suizhong County still wants people to suppress this news, intending to hide it."

Qi Bai heard that it was Wang Zhongcai who spoke, but he was a little surprised. According to his understanding, the two chief and deputy of the Ministry of Industry are both Wei Yancai's people. Why did they suddenly start fighting among themselves? He looked sideways at Chu Yanqing who was calm and composed:

"Chu Aiqing, is what Wang Aiqing said true?" He just asked symbolically, he had already heard about the incident in Suizhong.

"Returning to the emperor, what Lord Wang said about the Suizhong flood disaster is true, but the number of victims is still being verified, and the homeless people have already made arrangements, and there is no plan to hide it."

Chu Yanqing was calm, he had already heard from Wei Yancai that Wang Zhongcai was bought by Qin Tinghan, intending to pull him down from the post of Shangshu, but he was not worried, as long as the Wei family still supported him behind him, everyone would take him No way, he looked at Wei Yancai proudly, his face changed drastically in an instant.

　Girls, come in the arms of the recommended ticket, okay?
