Chapter 508 Where does the food go?

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 The nine Silver Star brothers fulfilled their duties faithfully, followed their master closely, climbed the steps to the eaves, and lined up on the west verandah.

The Shang monks stood behind the young master and lined up on the east verandah.

The eaves of the main hall's eaves are also overhangs that extend outward. Outside the colonnade, there is a row of armored soldiers, and government officials stand on both sides of the entrance to the main hall.

Lord Shang stood on the east side. Out of respect for the fairy, he was half a step behind and was the one closest to the fairy.

When the fairy was furious, because he was so close, he was naturally the first to feel the powerful murderous aura on the fairy's body.

The murderous intent was not directed at him, but was only affected by it. Lord Shang's murderous intent was so shocking that his scalp exploded, and the two were almost ready to leave first.

The anger in Le Yun's heart was raging. Fortunately, she had good self-control and controlled her emotions immediately.

The murderous aura that had just arisen quietly dissipated as if it suddenly appeared.

The murderous aura on his neck like a knife disappeared without a trace. Lord Shang's back was still cold. He did not dare to look at the fairy and quietly stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his face.

After calming down her emotions, Le Yun turned into a harmless girl again and calmly discussed with the county guard: "Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of his family and country. It is related to the life and death of Ning County. The monks and people of each family also know about it."

Quan, what do Lord Shangjun think?"

"My dear Fairy, Shang Jun will now invite the monks and common people who voluntarily participate to come in and listen. Fairy, please come and sit in the main hall first."

Lord Shang naturally felt that the fairy's opinion was excellent, and immediately sent a message outside the mansion: "The fairy is asking questions in the main hall. If the monks and elders from outside the mansion are willing, please come into the mansion to listen."

Lord Shang accompanied the fairy into the governor's mansion. The people were still standing in the square, unwilling to leave. They wanted to wait for someone from the governor's mansion or someone from Shangjun to come out and tell them where the fairy would stay while she stayed in Ningcheng.<

/p>

The monks are still there, and they are planning to wait until the fairy is settled before entering the governor's mansion to meet with Lord Shang.

The monks did not dare to use their spiritual consciousness to enter the governor's house to inquire about the news, but they had good ears and heard the fairy's angry shouts.

Listening to the voice, it was clear that the fairy was angry, and the fairy ordered the royal guard to take Prince Xin to see her. Visual inspection may have something to do with the resources in Princess Xin Shu's storage container.

There are many things that can make a fairy angry.

The monks were trying to guess what made the fairy so angry. When Lord Shang invited them into the mansion, their expressions were very subtle.

The monks did not hesitate and immediately walked towards the Sheriff's Mansion.

When the common people heard Lord Shang's words, they rushed towards the gate of the Governor's Mansion without hesitation.

The monks did not steal the way of the common people. They fell behind and felt that the people's speed was too slow. It would take at least a quarter of an hour to walk to the main hall of the Sheriff's Mansion at this speed.

A quarter of an hour is nothing in normal times, but keeping the fairy waiting for a long time is a bit unreasonable.

Several high-level monks communicated with their spiritual consciousness and reached a consensus - the monks should bring the people into the mansion!

The monks dispersed, their spiritual consciousness and spiritual power was released, and they "pulled" hundreds of people away.

The common people who were walking suddenly floated up with a sudden lightness, screamed in fright, and then heard the monks' voices: "Don't panic, in order to prevent the fairy from waiting too long, the monks from each family are taking everyone into the county governor's mansion, everyone just relax

, it will arrive soon."

The panicked people knew the reason. They were first surprised and then delighted, and no longer struggled. Although being carried by the monks did not allow them to fly around in the air like the monks themselves, the feeling of their feet floating off the ground was also particularly magical.<

/p>

Chamberlain Huang and the royal guards bypassed the main hall through the passage in front of the podium and hurried back to the fourth hall. They did not want to stay for a moment longer and ordered the honor guard to pack their luggage.

When the prince visited the west on behalf of the monarch, he also used the emperor's guard of honor.

The emperor's honor guard formation is huge, and there are more than 3,000 female guards in the inner prison.

Many items in the governor's mansion are ready-made, but some of the commonly used items in the residence of the prince and princess are still the items they are used to in the palace.

The honor guard has a large number of carriages and horses. The sedans, sedans and carriages are all in storage, and the horses are in special stables and need to be collected.

Huang Naiyuan was the leader of the honor guard. He gave the order, and although the captains of the palace maids' guards were shocked, they didn't ask any questions and hurriedly took action.

The monks of the Shang family and the officials of the county governor's mansion stayed silently in the main hall of the fourth hall, acting like wooden figures. When the fairy's angry shouts came, they ignored the royal team and ran towards the main hall in front.

Huang eunuch directed the people to pack up the prince's and princess's belongings. When he heard the loud shouting, he shivered with fright, his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.

With fear in his heart, he didn't dare to hesitate. He climbed up on the ground, rushed out of the door, and hurried towards the main hall of the county governor's palace with the royal guards who came after hearing the sound.

Open your mouth at the top, run and break your legs at the bottom.

Le Xiaoluoli, who had become the one who opened her mouth, turned around and walked towards the main hall of the Sheriff's Mansion without caring about the reactions of others.

In order to show its closeness to the people, the main hall of the governor's mansion does not have a Xumi platform. There are nine steps in front of the eaves. The whole hall rises from the ground, with carved beams and painted pillars, and red and red couplets carved with regular script. It is magnificent and beautiful.

The main hall is nine rooms in the middle of its width direction, with front and rear eaves opening the doors. The doors and walls of the main hall are all in the style of 槧 fan, which can be fully opened. The 槅 fan and the angled windows above the door are all hollowed out with Ruyi patterns.

The partition walls that separate the main hall from the east and west halls are carved with aristocratic flowers and birds and are gorgeously decorated.

It is five rooms deep, and gold pillars are added between the fourth and fifth doors on the central axis. Between the golden pillars is a gorgeous back wall. In front of the wall, there is a Xumi platform about an inch above the ground, with a throne and

Major case.

The fourth entrance and the fifth entrance were originally connected. The county governor's mansion used a tall floor-to-ceiling screen as a partition to separate the fifth entrance into a back hall.

There are two doors on both sides of the gorgeous Taishi wall leading to the back hall.

There is a door in the back hall that leads directly to the third entrance hall, and there is also a door on the east and west walls leading to the east and west halls.

There is a main thin seat on the west side of the desk in front of the board. There are five armchairs in a row on both sides in front of the large desk. There are also three rows of armchairs on both sides in front of the Xumi seat.

The throne in the main hall is a single seat. In fact, the county monarch handles official duties in the west side hall most of the year. Only when he listens to the reports of county officials or judges major cases, or receives county officials to pay homage in the first month of each year, there are

Only when important political matters need to be discussed in the main hall will the main hall be promoted.

The width of the houses in the middle is five feet and five feet wide. The width of the houses facing east and west is slightly reduced by a few inches, and the depth is five feet.

The main hall is spacious, and there is inevitably insufficient lighting in the room. The ceiling, walls, and golden pillars are inlaid with lighting beads. Those beads are small magic weapons. You only need to input a certain amount of spiritual power to keep the light on for a month or several months.

Le Yun entered the main hall, looked around the whole hall, and walked towards the Sumeru Seat in the hall.

Shang Junjun sent a message to the monks and people in the square, turned around and followed the fairy. He was about to invite the fairy to the throne, but the fairy stopped walking when she reached the Xumi throne.

Le Yun was very straightforward and used her spiritual power to move an armchair on the west side closer and placed it under the Xumi Zuo. She turned around and sat on it with great ease.

The fairy refused to sit on the throne in the palace. Lord Shang didn't want to ask any questions, so he dragged a chair and placed it half a step behind the fairy's seat, and sat beside him.

As people entered the temple, each stood behind his master.

Chamberlain Huang and the royal guards were not burdened by mortals. They flew across the ground, passed the third hall, and rushed to the main hall from the west side of the hall.

Entering the wide vestibule in front of the temple, you can immediately see a pile of items on the east side of the floor that are being exposed to the sun under the talisman array and the golden talisman in the air.

The mountains of spiritual stones came into view. Huang's mind was buzzing, and there was only one thought left in his mind - to finish the game!

The reason why the guardian of the sacred tree is angry must be related to Princess Shu's resources.

I definitely can’t hide some things!

There was a guess in his heart. Huang Huang wished that he could grow some wings and fly back to the capital, or that there would be a rift in time and space for him to hide.

However, the idea of ​​​​escape is all a luxury.

He has no way to escape.

Huang Huang gritted his teeth and dragged his somewhat stiff legs across the floor to the steps of the main hall, and climbed up the steps with the royal guards.

Before she even climbed onto the verandah, she had already seen the guardian of the sacred tree sitting in the hall. Even though she didn't look at her, she still felt divine consciousness falling on her body, like needle pricks, and dense pain slowly spread throughout her body.

.

Now that there was no way out, Huang Neishi calmly climbed up the stairs to the colonnade, filed into the hall with the royal guards, and then walked forward along the passage to the west in the center of the hall.

A group of people came to a stop ten feet away from the guardian of the sacred tree. Huang Chamberlain lowered his head and saluted: "The fairy has called, and the Sa family is waiting for the fairy's instructions."

"You guys wait, everyone is here, my fairy has something to ask you." The master didn't say anything, Jiuxing replied on behalf of the master.

Chamberlain Huang and the royal guards silently moved to the side and stood in two rows.

There was a seat next to them, but they knew they were in the wrong and didn't dare to find a seat by themselves.

The monks in the square led a group of common people into the front hall. When they arrived at the Yimen, they saw the royal guards flying from the back hall. Their speed did not slow down and they went straight from the courtyard to the main hall.

The common people's eyes were blurred and they did not see the items drying on the floor. The monks in Ningcheng saw it clearly and couldn't help but smack their tongues. Princess Xin Shu is so rich!

This time, the monks were even more sure of their guesses. Those things were the same ones that made the fairy furious.

The monks led the people into the hall in groups, and automatically sent the people to stand on both sides of the hall.

When the power that held them up disappeared, the people were down to earth and couldn't help but look around. When their eyes touched the lobby that was wider than their entire yard and the magnificent paintings, they immediately retracted their necks.

Those who were brave enough to admire it for a few times quickly lowered their eyebrows and lowered their eyes when they saw the fairy, Jun Jun and others sitting in the middle.

There were only a few thousand people in the square. The monks quickly arranged the people and quietly walked to the west side and stood in front of the seats. They sat down one after another when they heard the prince say "please have a seat".

The monks filled the three rows of seats on the west side, and some juniors had no seats and stood behind the elders.

The monks outside the square arrived, as did the Shang monks and officials from the county governor's office. They all bowed outside the hall before entering the hall, and sat down on the seats on the east side.

The people were excited, but they controlled it. Only the thumping of their heartbeats announced their mood.

The heartbeats of the monks are very slow and rhythmic.

The staff sat upright and carefully controlled their breathing.

The whole hall was completely silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

In the silence, Le Yun broke the deadlock: "I have something to ask, the internal supervisor and the royal guards must think clearly before answering whether to tell the truth or to deceive others. The choice is yours, and I have doubts.

I will use the soul search technique to verify the authenticity."

Hearing about the Soul Searching Technique, the royal family felt chills on their backs.

Waiter Huang was so frightened that he could hardly stand upright.

"If you don't say anything, I will assume that you have thought clearly. The first question is, your monarch will send people to Ning County to buy grain every ten years, but he defaults on the grain and silver on the grounds that the national treasury is empty. How much grain and silver are owed in total?"<

/p>

The fairy got straight to the point and went straight to the point. Mr. Shangjun was extremely lucky that the guardian of the sacred tree hated evil and would definitely be able to save Ningjun from fire and water!

When the fairy asked about the matter of grain and silver, the officials of the county governor's mansion straightened up immediately and stared at the imperial family and the royal family without blinking.

The common people also pricked up their ears.

The royal family were so frightened that they did not dare to say even a single word.

No one answered, and Le Yun's eyes fell on the Mahayana chamberlain: "Others may not know, and as the monarch's most trusted personal steward, neither does he? Huh?"

"..." Huang's calves were as stiff as rocks. Under the invisible pressure, he bowed and said, "It's a fact that the monarch bought grain but didn't pay for it. The Sa family doesn't know how much grain and silver they owe."

The internal prison officer was vague, but Le Yun did not argue with him: "Where did the grain bought from Ningjun go? This time, you should consider the consequences of perfunctory matters before answering."

Beads of sweat sprung up on Huang's forehead, and the beads became thicker and thicker. However, he did not dare to move. He felt that if he moved, his head would leave his neck.

The royal family wished they could disappear on the spot, but they heard a ghostly voice that sounded like it came from hell: "You don't even dare to say it, do you? Do you have to see some blood before you tell the truth?"

Huang Chamberlain trembled in fear, and his spine became even more curved: "Back...back to Fairy, the monarch has one or two confidants who are doing business, and the grain bought from Ningjun was resold by them...the grain and silver went to the monarch.

private treasury."

As soon as Chamberlain Huang's answer came out, the members of the royal family were eager to dig into the ground.

The officials and people of the county magistrate's office felt like they were struck by thunder, and there was only a buzzing in their heads.

The monarch will send envoys to Ningjun every ten years to prepare food for the army. Because it is military supplies, even if the monarch says that the treasury is empty and defaults on food and silver again and again, Ningjun will do its best to raise food.

Who would have thought that all the so-called military rations would go into the monarch’s pocket!

The officials' blood froze and their whole bodies felt cold.

Lord Shang guessed that some of the food might have gone into the royal family's private pockets, but he didn't expect the answer to be even more chilling than he thought.

Le Yun remained calm and continued to ask: "This time Lord Xinhun asked the prince to patrol the west on his behalf. He must have asked Ningjun for food. Lord Xinhun asked the prince to ask Ningjun how much food he wanted?"

Huang Nei's servant didn't even dare to raise his head: "The king ordered the prince to take 60% of Ningjun's autumn grain."

"Hiss-" When the confused people heard that the monarch asked Ning County to hand over 60% of the autumn grain, they were all so angry that their minds were clear.

"But how come this fairy heard that Prince Xin told Lord Shang that he wanted 80% of Ningjun's autumn grain to be paid as tribute?"

"The monarch asked Ningjun to hand over 60% of the autumn grain, and the prince and Princess Shu each increased it by 10% on their own initiative." Huang Neishi had only one thought in his mind: if he knew that there was such a catastrophe, he would have to kill himself to avoid being responsible for the prince's western inspection.

The steward’s errand!
