Chapter 277 Let's go to Lianghuai together
"I didn't expect your majesty to throw this hot potato to you." Lu Jin rode a white horse next to her carriage, and the curtain of the car was picked up. Along the way, Yunshang seemed to feel that the carriage was stuffy. The curtain had not been put down, and it was also convenient to talk to Lu Jin outside.
Hearing him say this, Yunshang held his head and smiled, "Why is it a hot potato?" Brother Lu, have you been an official for many years? Don't you know that this kind of national disaster is a good time for treacherous ministers like us to collect money?
Listening to her words, there was a sense of self-deprecating, Lu Jin frowned, "They said that you are a treacherous minister of the �� party who pursed the people's fat and people's ointment, but can't we still understand it? How can there be such a traitor like you who contributes to the emperor?
Yunshang sighed and got out of the car window to look at him. Lu Jin blushed when she looked at him, "Am I wrong?"
Yunshang looked at him and shook his head with a smile, "No, Brother Lu, what you said is half right and half wrong."
"Why is it half right and half wrong?" Lu Jin is an honest man. As soon as she said it, he believed it.
"They say I'm a treacherous minister, but I don't agree with that. What do you think is not for your majesty or for the sake of the people?" Lu Jin nodded and agreed. However, Yun Shang's next sentence made the honest man almost fall off his horse and gnaw mud.
"But I'm also a tyrant who purs people's fat and people's ointment." Yunshang smiled and looked at him to tell the truth, "What they said is right. I really love money as much as my life.
As an official, the most taboo thing is to be greedy for money. In the past, the princess of the Lou family has achieved this color to the extreme, and now Lou Yunshang, who is an official, has begun to be fascinated by the business of being greedy for money. This time... is really full of the four golden characters: "the treacherous minister of the slang party".
Looking at Lu Jin's mute expression, Yunshang in the carriage laughed and covered his stomach. Lu Jin blushed and looked at her with a happy smile and shook his head.
How much of what this woman said is true or false? He can't figure it out. Smart people like her can only be read when they talk to your majesty, right?
"Princess, there is the post hall in front of you. Do you want to take a break?" I don't know why, when the coachman spoke, Lu Jin always felt that this person's skill was extraordinary, and no matter how he looked at it, it was not just like the aura that a coachman should have.
"Brother Lu, I want to do this. Please listen to me." Yunshang in the carriage waved to Lu Jin. After listening to her soft muttering a few words, a trace of surprise and approval flashed on his face. He nodded and said, "Okay, just do as you say."
"Okay, let's have a rest here."
The carriage stopped, and Kong Jihao, the leader of the Yulin army who followed him, showed his waist card order to scare the little leader of the post and greeted the two distinguished guests in a hurry. Kong Jie stopped him and whispered, "The whereabouts of the princess can't be told to others. We need to rest here for three days. You should be well prepared and don't neglect."
The little leader went to prepare wine and dishes in a panic. The princess's meal was sent to the room. Lu Jin accompanied her to talk in the room, and laughter came out from time to time. The little boss secretly praised that the name of the worry-free princess was really far-reaching. Even if she went out to do business, the emperor sent her a handsome and reliable look. The male minister is accompanied.
After nightfall, the small post hall was calm and waveless.
There is a different action in the room where Yunshang stayed. At this time, instead of sleeping, Yunshang was very energetic and changed into a brisk dress. At this time, there sat a young woman in gorgeous clothes on her bed. The woman was also quite beautiful, but she was somewhat similar to Yunshang. She sat on ** and looked a little restless. Yunshang put on his cloak and finally couldn't sit still. He whispered, "Princess, is there really no problem?"
"Of course, there is no problem. You still have Lord Lu here to give you courage. If there is anything, he will definitely take care of it for you. You just need to learn the few words I taught you, and the rest is none of your business. If you do your job well enough, I will take you into the palace to do your job later. Isn't that what you have always wanted?
The young woman lowered her head and squeezed the corners of her lips and stopped talking. If she wanted to go to the palace to do something, she could only do it by pleasing the worry-free princess.
"If you are seen through, I will support your brothers and sisters for you. Don't worry." Yunshang saw that she was really scared, so she told her a few words. Then I left.
Kong Jie has been waiting there for a long time in the stable.
Seeing that Yun Shang came out bravely, he saluted and said in a low voice, "There are six men guarding the princess's safety. The princess can go on the road."
Yunshang smiled at him and said, "With the top masters of the Yulin Army, I naturally have nothing to be afraid of. Let's go. The person who greets you is on his way.
"Yes."
This trick is the standard way to change the day.
It is obviously a three-day trip that has been turned into a fast rush for her all night. Yunshang firmly believes that there are too many things that may be seen early. If you arrive at night, you won't even see any clues.
sooner or later.
After turning over the horse, there were six people in black behind her, always guarding her safety. Yunshang, who was covered with half of her face by a cloak, smiled gently. If the emperor was really made by those people, then she, the number one ly minister in the world, would also die miserably, right?
So she did this not only for Feng Zifeng, but also for herself.
***
"Your Excellency, the princess's motorcade has arrived at the post. We have just received a letter from the post. Princess Wuyou will be there for three days before continuing to leave."
"Oh? Who are the attendants?" A very kind-looking middle-aged man sat in the middle, with bright lights in the room, and several other people sitting at the table together in the room, as if they were discussing something.
"Lord Hui, the other people are Lord Lu Jinlu and Lord Kong Jie, the leader of the Yulin Army's guard."
The kind man nodded, asked the person who reported the news to retreat, and said to several officials around him, "This time, the emperor sent Princess Wuyou and Lu Jin to our two places. They must come to investigate the flood of the Huai River. What are your countermeasures to this?"
A very strong man stared and said loudly, "The soldiers come to cover the water. The flood of the Huaihe River is not caused by us. Where did she come from? Whose problem is solved? It has nothing to do with our brothers!"
The kind man looked at him, frowned and didn't say anything. At this time, a man in a blue and white shirt said, "Lord Hu's words are not unreasonable. I just heard that this worry-free princess is a thunderous method. I'm afraid it's not so easy to deal with."
"I'm afraid of her ball. What else can a female doll do?" The strong man surnamed Hu did not agree with what the man in blue and white clothes said, and the blue and white shirt was not annoyed. He refuted him with just a smile.
The kind man locked his eyebrows and looked at another person who had been silent, who was also the last participant in this secret meeting. This man, surnamed Lu, was an unrelenting official who was demoted here a few years ago. He was taciturn.
"Lord Lu, what do you think?"
Lord Lu pondered for a long time, and Hu Manghan suddenly snorted, "The little white face is just timid and can't stand it. When she comes, we old Hu can deal with it alone."
The man in blue and white also smiled, "It is said that this worry-free princess is a master of sex. She cannibals people and doesn't spit bones. It is estimated that only Brother Hu can be her opponent among us."
After saying that, Hu Manghan's dark face was suddenly full of shame and spat on the ground, "I'm not those little white faces in her house. I'd rather die on horseback than die on a woman."
The more they heard, the more outrageous it became. The kind man coughed, "Although this matter has nothing to do with our brother, everyone also knows the officials of the two places of Huai, which one is not the son of Taifu? Even if we want to tell the truth to the princess and tell the truth, I'm afraid it will implicate ourselves. Alas, this word loyalty is really difficult to maintain. Even if Zhang dares to risk his life, what should you do? What are we going to do with our family?"
These words made the officials present a little sad. Who doesn't care about his family and relatives in the world? Even if they want to show loyalty to the court, what about after their loyalty?
This is destined to be an inconclusive conversation. In the middle of the night, these people withdrew.
Three days passed in a flash. The face of Lord Zhang Siyuan, the governor of Lianghuai, the kind-looking middle-aged man, is also getting more and more worried. In addition to checking the situation on the dyke every day, he also needs to arrange people to set up a porridge field. The arrears allocated by the court are too little.
Less than pitiful.
What he didn't know was that a woman was constantly frowning and leading a horse through these disaster victims on the empty and decadent streets of Huainan.
When she first arrived here, the hunger lying on the ground made it difficult for her horse to walk. Yunshang had to get off the horse and lead it slowly. There were also some strong men with hungry eyes rushing up to rob her horse, which was pulled aside by the bodyguards behind her.
"Didn't the court have mobilized a lot of money to come here? Why hasn't the situation of these people improved at all? Yunshang asked softly as she walked.
A bodyguard behind him has asked the local people and whispered, "The princess doesn't know anything. The money mobilized from the treasury is not enough for the local officials to buy food. Princess, look over there."
Yunshang looked at his gesture and saw a tall gate tower, "What's wrong over there?"
"There are local rich merchants who are engaged in grain trading. In addition, several large families have taken this opportunity to hoard a lot of grain. At this time, prices were raised, and now a catty of unscreened rice has been bought for 50 cents."
"Fifty cents? This is going to be crazy." Yunshang raised her eyebrows, stood up and looked at the high cyan tile wall for a while, and suddenly had an idea in her mind.
