Chapter 1398 The ambitious King Huai

When he said this, some of his faces were obviously worried: "It would be fine if you just buy a hundred stones, but it would be troublesome if you buy a thousand stones."

"All the food I collected before was sent to Qinzhou. Because I had a lot of food before, it has attracted the attention of King Huai, and I dare not take any action recently."

Ning Guzhou sent people out to buy grain, and Tang Miaoxin notified all Xuanmen branches to help buy it.

It's just that wars in various countries coupled with drought weather last year resulted in poor harvests and insufficient grain output in the six countries. Buying grain has become a persistent problem.

Tang Miaoxin also received the news that Xuanmen was sent to Prince Qin's Mansion before, and knew that they had tried their best.

She asked Yu Qiu: "Huaizhou has abundant rice grains, so why does it control the sale of rice grains so strictly?"

Yu Qiu replied: "I have analyzed this before. There are probably two reasons. One is that there are too many people coming to Huaizhou to buy food."

"Furthermore, Emperor Cheng Ming's health is getting worse and worse, and his restraint on Dayan is not as strong as before. Prince Huai has other thoughts."

Tang Miaoxin was a little surprised. King Yidifan had other thoughts. It was self-evident as to what his thoughts were.

She asked: "Isn't it said that King Huai has a gentle and generous temperament, but his abilities are mediocre?"

Yu Qiu smiled and said: "Which member of the royal family would expose his true temperament to others?"

"The abilities and characteristics they display to the outside world are what they want to show to the outside world. Only they know what they are like on the inside."

"After King Huai arrived in the fiefdom, he kept a very low profile in the past few years, but because of his gentle and generous temperament, he attracted many people to join him."

"He didn't do much in the past, but he has not been peaceful in recent years. Now in Dayan, many people talk about King Huai and praise him as a courteous and virtuous corporal."

When Tang Miaoxin heard this, she understood a little bit and said with a smile: "So this is another ambitious person."

In terms of seniority, King Huai is Ning Guzhou's uncle.

After Emperor Cheng Ming ascended the throne, he almost killed all the members of the royal family, leaving only one King Huai.

The fact that he was able to survive from the hands of Emperor Cheng Ming also means that he is not simple.

Yu Qiu is just a man in the world and has no comment on the affairs of the court.

He only said: "I'm afraid it won't be easy for the sect master to buy a large amount of grain from Huaizhou."

Tang Miaoxin said quietly: "It depends on human beings."

When she said this, Yu Qiu couldn't say anything more.

She thought for a moment and then said: "I asked you to inquire about the Sixth Prince before. How did your inquiry go?"

When she was in Black Tiger Village, the Sixth Prince personally came to suppress the bandits with his soldiers and horses. With the help of Ning Guzhou, she beat him to a pulp.

At that time, based on the principle of utilizing waste, she informed Tang Jiuge to take over the sixth prince's fiefdom, and then poisoned the sixth prince.

The poison must be administered with some skills, and it is unlikely to cause an attack normally, but as soon as it is introduced, it can cause pain so severe that it would be worse than death.

After she robbed the Sixth Prince and the palace, she stole some money from the Sixth Prince and coaxed him to go to Huaizhou to join Prince Huai.

She originally wanted to let this bastard harm Prince Huai, and then see if she could get some benefits from him in the future.

Now that the long line laid out before was finally useful, she had to see how useful the Sixth Prince could be this time.

Yu Qiu said hurriedly: "After I received the news from the sect master, I started to inquire about his affairs."

"After he went to Huaizhou to seek refuge with King Huai last year, he has kept a low profile. King Huai treated him well and gave him a large house in the south of the city."

"In addition, he is also asked to take charge of the punishment in Huaizhou. He also has certain rights in Huaizhou."

Tang Miaoxin was not too surprised when she heard this. Since King Huai had a reputation as a virtuous person, he would not be too bad towards his nephew, the sixth prince.

At the moment, it seems that the Sixth Prince is doing well in Huaizhou.

The better the Sixth Prince gets around, the more useful he will be, but Tang Miaoxin has to think carefully about how to maximize his usefulness.

She thought for a moment and then said: "Give me the address of the sixth prince in Huaizhou, and I will go meet him tomorrow."

Yu Qiu responded and handed Tang Miaoxin the address he had prepared before.

Tang Miaoxin asked again: "Have you found out the address of Huaizhou Granary?"

Yu Qiu replied: "I have inquired clearly. The granaries in Huaizhou all follow the location of the granaries requested by Emperor Chengming."

After he finished speaking, he handed Tang Miaoxin another piece of paper with the address of the granary clearly written on it.

He added: "These official warehouses are now heavily guarded by soldiers. It is not easy to get food out of the official warehouses."

As an elder of Xuanmen, he has been with Tang Miaoxin for a long time, and he has a fairly good understanding of her behavior.

Coupled with Prince Huai's current attitude of being unwilling to sell grain, she will definitely not buy grain in the normal way.

Yu Qiu thinks too much, and inevitably becomes a little worried.

There are only a few hundred people in Xuanmen in Huaizhou City, and most of these people are businessmen. They can do business well, but they can't expect to get into fights.

Even if they can fight, they are no match for the thousands of troops guarding the granary.

Tang Miaoxin only brought a dozen guards here this time, and it was obviously unrealistic to use unconventional methods to buy food.

Tang Miaoxin just smiled when she saw his expression: "I know about this."

After the official conversation was over, Yu Qiu said: "The master of the sect has come all the way from afar. It is very difficult to come here. I have asked someone to boil hot water. You can take a bath to relieve your fatigue."

Tang Miaoxin was indeed a little tired after coming all the way.

At this moment, a woman about seventeen or eighteen years old came over and said: "Master, the room has been tidied up."

Yu Qiu introduced from the side: "This is the little girl's painting studio. She will serve the master these days."

Tang Miaoxin knew that Yu Qiu had been married to a wife before, but her wife died young and left a daughter. He had not remarried in these years.

Sang Yan said from the side: "It's you!"

Yu Hualou glanced at Sang Yan and cursed with contempt: "Sex!"

Sang Yan: "..."

It was a coincidence that Yu Hualou was on the road just before, and Sang Yan stared at the girl and gave him a pooh.

He felt a little wronged: "Why am I so perverted? I just looked at you twice because you are good-looking."

Yu Hualou had a very bad impression of Sang Yan. If Tang Miaoxin hadn't been here, with just these few words from him, she might have broken his head.

Yu Qiu was a little confused: "This is..."

Yu Hualou explained: "Dad, this is the disgusting man I told you today who wants to cling to a woman's eyes when he sees them."

The father and daughter have a good relationship, and they would not hide anything from Yu Qiu in the painting studio.

In fact, Yu Hualou's facial features are not very outstanding, but his skin is white and his eyes are dark and bright.

Her temperament is completely opposite to her appearance, she has a fiery temperament.
