I am happy to be a mother in a famine year, I have a system to farm the land

Just when Sun Mingda was about to become unable to sit still, Sima Lian said: "Now there are threats from foreigners on the border, and Prince Rong is eyeing him in South Vietnam. Your Majesty probably doesn't have time to manage these things."

Sun Mingda was stunned for a moment, and seemed to have some understanding when he thought about the things that the emperor was worried about during this period.

For today's Great Zhou, the threat from the border is the greatest.

As for these matters in the court, even if the emperor knew about them, he might be powerless.

As long as they increase the threat on this border, the emperor will probably stop pursuing this matter.

When things stabilize in the future, I'm afraid the emperor won't care about this anymore.

Thinking of this, Sun Mingda, who was worried just now, immediately relaxed.

"Thank you, Mr. Xiang, for the tip."

Not only Sima Lian, but also many people in the Eighth Prince's house are in dire straits.

Especially the officials related to Lin County looked even more ugly. None of them expected that Prince Ling would actually go to that small mountain village.

"My lord, what should I do?"

The few people standing in the Eighth Prince's study were the people who used to look down upon the Eighth Prince the most.

When the Eighth Prince tried to win over them, their attitude was unclear.

Later, after the Eighth Prince married Rong Jiao as his concubine, everyone turned against the Eighth Prince one after another.

After all, Prince Rong is the biggest threat to Great Zhou now besides those from Fan State. If the Eighth Prince can get help from Prince Rong, it will be easy for him to ascend to that position in the future.

For this reason, they paid tribute to the Eighth Prince every day.They wanted to get the attention of the Eighth Prince, but now that something like this happened, they had to come to the Eighth Prince.

The Eighth Prince is now their biggest supporter. If what happened in Lin County is discovered, it will be difficult for them to protect themselves.

For this plan, only by dragging the Eighth Prince into this muddy water can they have a chance to save their lives.

The Eighth Prince did not expect that these people secretly occupied so much of the people's land, and his face turned livid with anger for a while.

He originally thought that these people were loyal ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but now it seems that he thought highly of these people before.

Everyone saw that the Eighth Prince had not said a word for a long time, and they felt even more uneasy.

"Your Highness, you have to save me. Xiaguan...Xiaguan was confused before, so he did something he shouldn't have done. Please ask the Eighth Prince to save me..."

Some people couldn't help but kneel in front of the Eighth Prince. Seeing this, the others also knelt on the ground.

"Your Highness, please save me. Your Majesty, I have already realized my mistake, and I will definitely not do it again in the future. As long as you can save me, I will let you demolish me in the future."

This is a great temptation for the Eighth Prince. After all, the most important thing for the Eighth Prince to win the throne now is the support of the ministers in the court.

Without the support of these ministers, how could a bastard like him compete with the prince?

The Eighth Prince struggled, looking at the official kneeling on the ground for a long time, and finally sighed.

"My lords, please get up first. You are all loyal ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty. You just did something wrong once in a while, so it doesn't matter."

"The saints all say that no one can make mistakes in this world? It is a good thing that a few ministers know their mistakes and can correct them."

When everyone heard this, they knew that the Eighth Prince was willing to help them.The people who were worried just now felt a lot more at ease now.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Your life-saving grace will be kept in our hearts."

After everyone left, the nanny from Rongjiao Courtyard came.

The steward saw that it was someone from Rongjiao Courtyard. Although he felt unhappy, he couldn't really stop him.

After all, Rong Jiao is now the Eighth Prince's favorite person. As a servant, how can he dare to interfere in his master's affairs?

Thinking of the eighth princess who had never left the courtyard so far, the steward couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that the Eighth Prince and the Princess cannot go back to the past.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Rong invites you to come. She said she has something important to discuss."

The Eighth Prince was stunned. Although he didn't want to, he had to go.

Ever since he learned that Rong Jiao was staying in that brothel, the Eighth Prince felt a little concerned.

But he couldn't just divorce Rong Jiao. Prince Rong was now his biggest supporter. If Prince Rong was gone, even the civil servants in the court would not support him.

Thinking of this, the Eighth Prince calmed down the fear in his heart, got up and walked towards Rong Jiao's yard.

"Concubine, the prince is here."

The maid who was serving saw the figure of the Eighth Prince from a distance and quickly went in to report the news.

When Rong Jiao heard this, the corners of her lips curled up involuntarily.

Since that day, she has never left the palace again. The Eighth Prince must have seen her sincerity.

"My lord, what's wrong with you? What trouble have you encountered?"

Seeing something wrong with the Eighth Prince's expression, Rong Jiao stepped forward to ask.

The weak and boneless hands were placed on his body, and the anger in the Eighth Prince's heart dissipated somewhat.

"Some civil servants in the court let their subordinates occupy the land, killing thousands of people. If my father knew about this, I'm afraid..."

Rong Jiao was stunned when she heard this. She had heard her father say it before.

The imperial court in the Central Plains has a group of moths.

Nowadays, it seems that there are only a few talented people like Sima Lian.

"Your Majesty wants to protect those people?"

The Eighth Prince sighed, "Speaking of which, these people can be considered loyal ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty. They just did some wrong things, and they are not unforgivable."

Rong Jiao couldn't help but sneered when she heard the eighth prince's words.

But she also knew that the Eighth Prince did this just to get those ministers to support him.

Thinking of this, Rong Jiao understood what the Eighth Prince was worried about.

"Your Majesty, are you worried that your father will investigate this matter?"

The Eighth Prince nodded, "There are a lot of casualties this time. I'm afraid it will be difficult for the ivory to come down. Not to mention where my uncle is still..."

Rong Jiao was stunned, but she didn't expect that Prince Ling was also involved.

"My lord, don't worry about this. Those people who can come to you have probably also gone to Prime Minister Sima. If you don't know what to do, why not ask Prime Minister Sima?"

When the Eighth Prince heard this, his expression changed slightly.

Rong Jiao was right, the people supporting him in the court now were all from Sima Lian.

When these people encountered such a thing, they couldn't just come to him.

"In that case, I'll have to trouble Jiao'er to make a trip for me."

The Eighth Prince held Rong Jiao's hand, his eyes full of tenderness, as if the gap between them had never existed.

Rong Jiao's heart moved when she saw the Eighth Prince's expression.

The Eighth Prince's appearance is not bad, otherwise she would not have chosen the Eighth Prince in the first place.

Now that the Eighth Prince was looking at her so affectionately, Rong Jiao was distracted for a moment.
