Chapter 171 Problems Found in the Year

Ji Liunian was shocked.

"That's really high. Do you all have a meter?" Ji Liunian drank goat's milk while talking. If she didn't drink it, she felt that her body could not support it.

"The small country is in a cold zone. In recent years, it has become colder. With several hailstorms and other natural disasters, we can't stand it. That's why I asked Sang's messenger to go to your country to seek assistance, and asked the queen to say a few words to the emperor, so that the people of the small country can get food and clothing, so that they will not starve to death. After saying that, the king walked down, and several ministers followed him and knelt down to Ji Liunian together.

Ji Liunian couldn't react for a moment. He watched them kneel in front of him and quickly got them up.

"Get up, get up and talk to me if you have something to say."

"If the queen doesn't agree to help, we won't get up. For the sake of the people, even if a man has a daughter under his knees, we will risk it.

Ji Liunian had to promise them.

"I came here this time to see what you need. When I go back, I will definitely tell the emperor that he can arrange you well. Don't worry." Ji Liunian really couldn't bear to watch these big men kneel down in front of his own woman. This was really pitiful.

"Since the queen said so, we are relieved." After the king got up, several ministers followed him, and soon they returned to their original positions.

"The queen came here for the first time, and we have nothing to treat. After a while, I will set up a banquet and ask the queen to give face."

"That's not necessary. I don't pay attention to these. I haven't stayed here for a long time, so I want to know the situation in your country as soon as possible. Let's avoid the banquet or something. I will eat whatever you eat." Ji Liunian didn't say anything about his discomfort. She is going to take a break later, maybe it will be all right.

The king was a little embarrassed to hear Ji Liunian say this.

"You're welcome. I'll take a break first. Please let the messenger of Sang follow me."

"That's good. I won't waste the queen's time."

Ji Liunian walked down and saluted the king and his courtiers. They are very useful in their hearts. At first, I felt that it was a little outrageous for Dacheng to send a woman to come. Now it seems that the queen of Dacheng is still very polite and has no airs, which is much easier to deal with than ordinary messengers.

The messenger of Sang was called in.

"The queen has now been taken to the Jardine Palace. Wait for you to wait there. You can ask her to look around us in the past few days to find out about our situation. If they are really willing to help us in the future, I will reward you greatly.

When the messenger of Sang heard this, he quickly knelt down.

"Don't say such words, it is my subordinate's job to work for the country and the people. If the small country can really get better, this will be the best reward and reward.

The king was very satisfied with the answer of Sang's messenger.

Ji Liunian woke up a lot. When he asked about the time, it was night.

"Oh, I slept so long." She quickly dressed and washed. The maids were waiting aside and changed into the clothes worn by the women in their own country for Ji Liunian. Ji Liunian looked like a coat and a jacket, which was very funny. Wearing a heavy silver ornament on her head, she felt that her neck was sore.

"Let's take this off first, just tie a bun." If you hold so many things, you will be exhausted after walking a few steps.

The maid felt embarrassed.

"Can't you get a bun?" Ji Liunian became heavier as soon as he was anxious. The maids were so scared that they knelt down.

"Okay, you go down. It's okay." Ji Liunian did it himself. As soon as I went out, I saw the mulberry messenger holding a small bowl in his hand.

"Queen, this is a special treatment for dizziness. You will be fine if you drink it."

"I feel good now. I don't need it." Ji Liunian opened the lid and saw the green things, and his heart was full of nausea.

"Please drink it, Queen. Now the good spirit is only for a while, and I will feel uncomfortable again later. This is our rule here. If you come to a foreign guest, you must drink a bowl of green soup.

Ji Liunian saw that Sang's messenger said so resolutely, so he drank it. It was so bitter and spicy that her tears were about to flow out.

"It's really not something people eat. I won't drink it anymore." Ji Liunian threw the small bowl to the mulberry messenger. Sang's messenger laughed.

"You will know how to use it when you bring it back. We don't have the qualification to drink it."

Sang's messenger took Ji Liunian to the street. The streets here are very different from those of Dacheng, which is a little messy. Ji Liunian looked very uncomfortable.

"You sell food here, and this is a flower cloth seller... Why are they all mixed together? Isn't that inconvenient?"

"These are all according to the meaning of the people, and we never interfere."

"No, this has to be changed."

"As long as it is the queen's will, we will do it in the future. Queen, come here. This is the best restaurant in the national capital. Let's eat here. Sang Messenger said with a smile.

Ji Liunian nodded and was a little curious. I don't know what special they have here besides mutton and sheep milk.

When they walked in, the shopkeeper suddenly recognized the messenger and gave them the best box.

Sang's messenger didn't ask what Ji Liunian meant, and ordered all the dishes at once.

"You drink tea first, and we'll wait." Ji Liunian thought it would be on the table soon, but after a quarter of an hour, only a plate of peanuts came up, and her stomach cooed with hunger.

"Why don't you come yet?" Ji Liunian looked around and was a little anxious.

"I'm going to urge you." Sang's messenger went out.

Ji Liunian opened the window of the box and saw another box.

There are more than a dozen people in the box next door, all of whom are big men. They drink in big bowls, eat meat in large pieces, and make fist jokes, which is no different from Dacheng.

"I heard that hundreds of people died in Ouyuan, all of whom starved to death." The man behind Ji Liunian smiled and said to another person.

"If you starve to death, you will starve to death, as long as we have food and drink. Who cares so much these days? I think if it goes on like this, I can't keep my black gauze hat, and the people will die. Let's take advantage of this time to get a little more. At that time, we will take away the money and run to Dacheng, and we will still live an immortal life. Another man said with a smile.

"You can go away, I can't go away, the whole family is here. Even if I agree, the bad old man in my family will scold me to death, saying that I have forgotten my ancestors and am not filial to my descendants. I can't stand it. How much did you scrape last time?

"Not much." The man stretched out five fingers, and Ji Liunian could see clearly.

"500 taels? That's not bad."

"You think I'm a fool, 5,000 taels of gold, and some people take more than me."

"No wonder the king took out so much money to subsidize the people every year, and it's all in your hands." The man ridiculed him.

"If you don't take it for nothing, we will disperse sooner or later. Wait and see."

Ji Liunian closed the window and was indignant. At this time, the messenger of Sang came in.

"It's the existence of these corrupt officials that made the people of small countries starve to death. It's really angry." Ji Liunian said loudly.

Sang Messenger didn't understand what had happened and was stunned. Ji Liunian told him everything he had just heard.

"To tell you the truth, the king arranged many of his relatives in the court. They are very greedy. Many clean officials did not find them out because of the king's face. It's really hateful that these guys want to make enough money and escape. Sang's messenger was equally angry.

"It seems that if you want to take good care of this small country, you still have to start from within. Relief alone is not feasible. Tomorrow, I will ask the king to replace this problem, first clean up the corrupt officials from the inside and outside, and then we will give relief, or we will feed all the pigs.

"It would be great for the queen to do this, but we should pay attention to the right words. We dare not mention it. In fact, the king also knows it in his heart, but he can't pull it down."

At this time, the second child of the shop slowly brought the dishes over.

"Two is enough. Remove the rest and lose your appetite all of a sudden." Ji Liunian said to the envoy of Sang. Sang's messenger understood Ji Liunian's mood and did what she said.

When he came to the street, Ji Liunian felt very comfortable.

"It's strange that I don't feel dizzy or cold. Is it because you just had mutton soup?

The messenger smiled mysteriously.
