At this time, the concierge had already opened the door.
I saw Li San in the alley not far away, wearing a gorgeous brocade robe and a black felt hat.
Like a wealthy businessman, he was riding a tall horse, leading carts of ox carts carrying grain, and was traveling in a dusty way.
Behind him were many followers, who were escorting carts of oxcarts filled with sacks of linen. They looked very majestic and heroic.
Yun Ruoyue was stunned, "Did you ask Li San to buy food? When did this happen?"
"When I heard about the floods in Jiangnan, I asked Li San to buy them.
I originally asked Li San to buy it in Chu State, but I found that profiteers in Chu State had smelled the news and hoarded the grain instead of selling it.
The king had no choice but to ask him to pretend to be a businessman and go to the Tiansheng Kingdom next door to buy it.
If I hadn't made early arrangements and asked him to buy it earlier, if he went to buy it now, he wouldn't be able to buy food."
Chu Xuanchen said domineeringly.
"That's it! Fortunately, you acted early. If it had been a step later, the news of the disaster on the people in Jiangnan would have spread to Tiansheng Kingdom.
If you buy it at this time, the price will definitely increase! Moreover, the two countries are already hostile, and the people of Tiansheng are eager for something to happen to Chu. By then, they may not even sell a grain of grain to us.
You know I'm worried about the victims, so this is your surprise for me?"
Yun Ruoyue said happily.
Chu Xuanchen nodded, "Well, I am also worried about the victims, so why would I watch them suffer?
With this food, the people will not starve to death, and I am relieved!"
Yun Ruoyue looked at him movedly, "Thank you for what you have done silently for the people. This touched me very much.
This surprise is the best gift I have received this year."
"Yue'er, this king is supported by all the people. This is what I should do."
Chu Xuanchen said.
At this time, Li San had already jumped off his horse and quickly came over to salute Chu Xuanchen.
"Your Majesty, I have kept you waiting for a long time!"
"Li San, you don't need to be polite, please get up quickly!"
Chu Xuanchen said while helping Li San stand up.
He looked at Li San and found that Li San was very tanned. His face was covered with wind and frost and his hair was unkempt. He looked very tired from the journey.
Li Sanze cupped his hands and said firmly: "Your Majesty, I finally fulfilled the tasks you assigned to your subordinates and completed them all! The one million taels of silver you gave to your subordinates were all used to buy food.
, I bought a total of 100,000 shi (dan) of food back."
"Okay! Li San, you and everyone have worked hard! Mo Li, hurry up and send someone to receive the food and transport it to the king's villa."
Chu Xuanchen ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Strangely.
At this time, Chu Xuanchen looked at Mo Zhu and said, "Mo Zhu, bring a team of cooks and hurry up to make porridge and white flour steamed buns. I want the victims to eat some clean food today!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After Mo Zhu received the order, he quickly led people to take action.
After giving instructions to Mo Zhu, Chu Xuanchen looked at Liu Ruyan and Feng Qingyang beside him, "Ruyan, Military Master Feng, I have something that you two need to handle now!"
"Please give me your instructions, Your Majesty."
The two immediately surrendered.
Chu Xuanchen leaned towards Liu Ruyan's ear and whispered: "You and Military Advisor Feng go to Zhang Fuyin and ask Zhang Fuyin to take people to search Mrs. Wei Guo's villa, and then..."
As soon as the prince came closer, Liu Ruyan suddenly felt a warm breath spraying over him. He suddenly blushed and quickly tilted his head.
