Chapter 190 The Boss Behind the Scenes
"Military rations?"
Ye Zhilan was stunned: "Yun'er, this is the only food left in the entire Liyang Palace. The soldiers at Changyu Pass are fighting fiercely. The palace guards and so many people need to make a living. It's not that mother is cold and indifferent, but if the soldiers' rations are cut off, the city will be in great trouble."
"In three days, just three days, my daughter-in-law will not only have these two thousand dan of grain returned to the granary of the royal palace, but will also have all government granaries restocked with grain."
In fact, Fu Guiyun already had an idea in mind, and now all he needed was a bait.
With deep trust in his heart, Ye Zhilan only thought for a moment before saying, "Yun'er, your mother can't help you with anything in her current state. Just go ahead and do what you want to do."
"Thank you, concubine."
She always let herself do what she wanted, which made Fu Guiyun extremely grateful.
"We have been married for a long time, why do you have to say such polite words?"
After Ye Zhilan finished speaking, she immediately instructed Nanny Jiang, "You personally pass on a message for me. From today on, both the Ye and Lu families must be more frugal and transport the remaining food rations to various government warehouses to help the Crown Prince's wife provide relief to the victims."
After hearing this, Fu Guiyun felt more confident.
After leaving the house with Doctor Xue, the strange old man couldn't help but mock her: "You may not look young, but you have a big heart. Why do you have to pick such a big grudge? After all, the Lu family still has its sons."
"When the country is in crisis, how can we rely solely on our sons and daughters?"
Fu Guiyun smiled faintly and said, "As the consort of the prince of the palace, you usually rely on the people for support. In times of crisis, you should stand up even if you are torn to pieces. King Tuoyue knows that there are only juniors and the princess left in the city, and he thinks that women are weak and easy to bully. I just want to let him see that women in this world are not easy to bully."
"Ambitious."
Doctor Xue admired her for her broad-mindedness. Seeing that she had lost a lot of weight in recent days, he felt distressed, but he still said stubbornly, "I am really tired of eating the food cooked by the Crown Prince's Consort recently. You should study it for a while, and when you have a new dish, make it for me."
After saying that, he deliberately added: "I am not such a petty person. Before your new dish is ready, I will definitely treat the princess with more care. You can put your mind at ease."
Fu Guiyun could see that he wanted to lighten some of the burden on himself, so he couldn't help but chuckle.
"Then I would like to thank the divine doctor for not liking it."
After thanking him in a slightly playful manner, Fu Guiyun returned to Chuxian Palace.
Thinking of her promise to her mother-in-law, she made a lot of arrangements in secret before instructing Lu Youxi to send all the rice to the government warehouse.
Although all the rice shops in the city were open for business for two consecutive days, the situation was no different from before: all the food was sold out as soon as it opened.
The people became more and more dissatisfied and continued to run to the city gate to make a scene, demanding to leave the city immediately.
When Fu Guiyun left, the guys from Hu's Rice Shop gathered around him, gloating and saying, "Military officer, are you here to speak up for the Crown Prince's Consort again?"
"It's no use talking big. Even if the Crown Prince's wife came in person today, she wouldn't be able to conjure up food."
"is it?"
Fu Guiyun looked at the group of servants and said with a faint smile: "I'm afraid I will disappoint you all."
After saying this, he immediately shouted to the people at the city gate: "Today I will not only find food for everyone, but also give it away for free. Please follow me."
She led the group forward first. Many people didn't understand why, but they followed anyway.
With people leading the way, more and more people came there.
After walking for a long time in a deep alley, the guys from Hu Ji Rice Shop felt that something was wrong and wanted to slip away.
At this time, many soldiers rushed out from the alley and blocked the way of those people.
The leading shopkeeper complained, "What is the military master trying to do? We haven't done anything wrong. The military master didn't find food for the Crown Prince's wife. Are you trying to take it out on us?"
Fu Guiyun's eyes became stern: "You are right. I want to take my anger out on you today."
Then, he shouted, "Take them all away."
After capturing the clerk and the manager of Hu Ji Rice Shop, he ordered the soldiers to beat drums and gongs and call on the people around to come and get their food.
A group of people hurriedly came to the gate of a remote house, and the servants of Hu Ji Rice Shop were stunned.
I saw that the guys who went to the government warehouse to buy grain every day were all escorted by soldiers. The surroundings were full of grain bags, at least thousands of stones.
"These are all the food from our Huji Rice Shop."
The shopkeeper said righteously, "Does the palace have to be so unruly that it wants to rob people by force?"
Lu Youxi was extremely angry when he heard this: "At this point, you, Hu Ji Rice Shop, still dare to shamelessly say that these grains are yours?"
After saying that, he shouted, "Take them all down."
The shopkeeper was very arrogant: "I wonder who dares to do that. Do you know who is the boss behind Hu's Rice Shop? It's the Chang Province Marquis Liu family."
"If I hadn't known that the Liu family was backing me, I really wouldn't have believed that a small Xiaomixing could be so audacious."
Fu Guiyun sighed softly: "It seems that the emperor demoted the Liu family and asked the Duke of Changguo to reflect on himself. He has failed the emperor's high hopes. When the country was in crisis, he did not share the worries of the emperor, but instead did such a shameless evil thing. Do you think that you can get away with this little trick?"
He glared at the subdued servant in front of the grain pile and said, "Then please tell me where the grain of Hu Ji Rice Shop comes from. If you dare to conceal even a word, you will die today."
"Yes."
The man was terrified and had to confess the truth: "Hu's Rice Shop had discussed with all the government warehouse rice shops in advance. As long as the grain store opens every day, we will take away all the rice. Hu's Rice Shop will secretly give these merchants money. In this way, starting from the government warehouse releasing grain, we can buy all the grain every day."
The people who came to try their luck were furious: "This is ridiculous! No wonder we can't buy food. It turns out that you wicked people have already taken it away."
The shopkeeper of Huji Rice Shop defended himself, "Don't slander us. The Crown Prince's Consort has ordered people to stockpile over 100,000 dan of rice in the past few months. Even if we buy some, it is in accordance with the rules and it does not violate the law."
At this moment, someone from the Liu family also rushed over.
The man recognized Fu Guiyun at a glance, and after greeting her, he said slowly, "Does the Crown Prince's Consort want to use her power to pressure others? My Liu family does business in an orderly manner, and has not provoked the Liyang Palace?"
"Doing business in an orderly manner?"
Fu Guiyun sneered, then ordered someone to fetch the account book and threw it in front of the man: "Young Master Liu, please finish reading this account book first. If you still dare to talk to me about doing business in an orderly manner, then I will have nothing to say today."
The man asked the servant to pick up the account book, took it out and looked through it carefully, grinned and said disapprovingly: "What do you think is wrong, Princess?"
