"Yes, Your Majesty, but it seems that Mrs. Wei doesn't know about this yet.
Today, my subordinates visited more than a dozen soup kitchens in the city and found that they all gave out rotten rice, and the steamed buns were also made from rotten noodles! Your Majesty, Gaoyang actually used this kind of rice to provide disaster relief. We
What should we do now?”
Chu Xuanchen asked, "By the way, how long will it take for the grain that I asked Li San to buy from neighboring countries to arrive?"
When he was preparing to go to provide disaster relief, he asked Li San to go to the street to buy food.
As a result, merchants are hoarding them and are reluctant to sell them, and they sell them very expensively.
He learned from the spies that there was no famine in Tiansheng Kingdom this year and the grain production was relatively sufficient.
He then spent one million taels of silver himself and sent Li San to pretend to be a businessman and go to the neighboring country of Tiansheng to buy grain.
He told Li San that he would sweep away all the food in Tiansheng Kingdom before Tiansheng Kingdom could react.
As soon as he bought the grain, he would quickly transport it back to Chu.
Only in this way can disaster relief be provided in time.
Otherwise, if you wait until the emperor gives the order to buy food, it will be too late.
Counting the time, more than ten days have passed, and Li San and the others should be back.
Mo Li cupped his hands and said, "I was just about to talk about this. I just received a letter from Li San.
He said that they had bought food and were hurrying to the imperial city.
If nothing else happens, they will be able to deliver the food early tomorrow morning."
"Okay, great! I hope Li San can deliver the food on time.
Now let's be patient for a while, and when the food arrives tomorrow, we'll slap Mrs. Wei in the face so that the people can see the true colors of her and the queen!"
Chu Xuanchen shouted coldly.
When he thought of them letting the people eat such food, Chu Xuanchen was filled with anger.
They were his father's people, how could they be treated like this?
Mo Li said: "Yes, now that our food has not arrived, it is useless even to trouble Mrs. Wei.
For the victims, they will listen to whoever can keep them fed.
Although Madam Wei has given her rotten porridge, it is still better than being hungry! Then, Your Majesty, let’s just endure it now and wait until tomorrow.”
Chu Xuanchen nodded, "Tomorrow is also the deadline for the emperor to raise funds for me.
Moli, go and get ready, we have a big battle to fight tomorrow."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
.
Early the next morning, when Chu Xuanchen and Yun Ruoyue got up, they heard Mo Li's delighted voice, "Your Majesty, Princess, this is great! Li San has already led the convoy to transport all the food he bought back.
!”
"real?"
Chu Xuanchen hurriedly walked out and looked at Moli in disbelief.
Mo Li said excitedly, "It's absolutely true. Your Majesty, Li San and the convoy are still on the street, and my subordinates came in advance to announce the good news."
"Okay! Send the order, everyone is ready, go out of the house to meet Li San, and give him a cleansing."
Chu Xuanchen said.
Li San ignored the danger and bought food from Tiansheng Kingdom, so he certainly deserves to be treated politely.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After Moli finished speaking, he quickly retreated.
Yun Ruoyue was confused when she heard this, and she looked at Chu Xuanchen curiously, "Li San transported food?"
Your Majesty, what does this mean?"
Chu Xuanchen stretched out his hand to rub her head, and smiled fondly: "This is the surprise I have prepared for you. Come on, you and I will go out to see it."
With that said, he took Yun Ruoyue's hand and the two of them walked towards the main entrance of Prince Li's Mansion.
Soon, they arrived at the main entrance of the palace.
