Seeing Chen Hao here, the father-in-law who came to proclaim the decree looked a little embarrassed, and hurriedly recounted what Zulong had explained, showing an apologetic expression.

Sitting next to him, Bai Qi saw that Chen Hao wanted to help, held his arm, and shook his head.

Don't embarrass everyone, stand up, go back to the cell, close your eyes and rest.

"Understood, don't be too embarrassed."

Chen took a good look at the guard, and after finishing speaking, his sharp eyes fell on Eunuch Su, and said in a cold voice: "Your Majesty, you should know how to say it, don't go too far!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left the sky prison, feeling extremely disappointed in Zulong in his heart!

Now the state of Qin can be said to be in crisis, and now it does not win the hearts of the people, but it is still suppressing it strongly, which makes people feel chilling. No wonder Bai Qi has been staying in the prison and has seen through everything.

People in the whole state of Qin were panic-stricken. Not only were the Huns outside the pass invaded, but banditry was rampant in the country, which made the people terrified and held hostage all day long.

"Unexpectedly, there is still such a day in our empire. Alas, even the bandits appear, and the officials don't respond. Is it true that we don't care about us!"

"I don't know, I always feel that our Qin country is weird, and there must be something wrong!"

Many people feel worried about the recent changes and the constant disasters caused by bandits.

At the same time, the imperial court's disregard made them gradually disappointed with the empire, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, why did the powerful empire come to where it is today.

Many wealthy businessmen with connections to the imperial court learned of the recent changes in the imperial court, and they bought grain one after another and stored it. For a while, there was an instant shortage of grain in the Qin Dynasty, causing ordinary people to complain silently.

The ever-rising food prices have made them unable to afford it. In the past, food only cost a few taels of silver, but now it has risen dozens of times. People are panicked and miserable for a while.

"Prime Minister, the people below are all complaining, and the same is true for us officials. We are complained by many people every day, and we can't eat food! We have nothing to do, we can't control the soaring price of food!"

"The price of food in Tanzhou, Fuzhou and other places has risen so much that we can't stand it anymore. If this continues, the people below may have trouble!"

In the prime minister's mansion, many officials gathered, all with worried expressions on their faces, looking at Chen Hao in front of them, and said in a deep voice.

Even when they were faced with such a problem, they were at a loss and didn't know what to do for a while. They gathered here, hoping that the prime minister could give an answer and let them go down to persuade the people.

Chen Hao was expressionless. After hearing the complaints from everyone, he sighed and shook his head in disappointment.

Now, His Majesty is suppressing the courtiers all at once, even the people of Qin State don't care at all, it is really chilling, if this happens, the whole Qin State will be disrupted!

"What should we do? What can we do? After going to court tomorrow, let your majesty react. Even if we want to suppress the price of food in commercial houses, people will not be willing. More importantly, we will not sell it, which will make the people even more helpless!"

Chen Hao showed helplessness on his face, looked at many ministers, shook his head and said.

Not to mention him, so what if His Majesty came forward to prevent the high price from being sold, so could it be possible to control others if they don't sell it?After there is no food, some people are naturally willing to pay a high price.

Unless Zulong opens the grain depot and releases grain to the world, only then can those profiteers pay the price, but now that the national treasury is short of money, it is easier said than done to release grain.

The faces of many ministers showed worry, as if they could see the chaos in the world!

Coupled with the banditry, the life of the ordinary people below is even more difficult. What about peace?

After listening to Chen Hao's words, everyone understood that it was no longer their decision at this time, and only by making the people feel safe could the situation be stopped in time.

The next morning!
Many ministers in the court knelt on the ground, begging Zulong to look at the people below, how hard they are living now, and now even food is about to become a luxury. I hope His Majesty can rectify it and let them release the grain depots!

"What? When did a catty of grain cost ten taels of silver? This grain is so expensive? Let me catch these profiteers and cut them down!"

After Zulong heard that the price of grain in Qin State had soared, his face showed shock and anger, and he shouted angrily.

With a ferocious face and fierce eyes, he scolded everyone angrily.

Many courtiers showed helplessness on their faces, and secretly complained in their hearts.

"Why are you getting angry with us here? It's not that we want to raise prices? We can't control it!"

Zulong was furious, and sitting on the dragon chair kept yelling at the courtiers below, scolding dryly.

Chen Hao shook his head, stood by and couldn't bear to watch, came out on his own initiative, looked up at Zu Long, his eyes showed firmness: "Your Majesty, it's useless to get angry at this time, the most important way is to stabilize the hearts of the people, so that they are no longer afraid, That's what matters!"

"What are they afraid of?"

There was doubt on Zulong's face.

Chen Hao looked at Zu Long and sighed.

"What are they afraid of? Your Majesty must know better than us. Enemies from all directions are now attacking Qin, and even Qin is full of bandits. May I ask Your Majesty, why are the people not worried, why are they not afraid! Why don't the prices of food in the commercial houses increase ?”

After hearing Chen Hao's questioning, many courtiers applauded in their hearts and showed excitement on their faces. This was something they wanted to say but dared not to say, and Chen Hao said it all.

That's how it should be, so that Zulong can wake up from his arrogance and understand the real situation of Qin today.

However, when everyone said this, Zu Long's face was full of anger, without regret or annoyance at all!
On the contrary, it seems that the current situation in Qin State is all caused by their mismanagement, and they dare to complain to him, be careful to cut off their heads!
"Are you blaming me? It's your incompetence, and that Zhou Haoyu, who suppressed the Huns for so long and couldn't take it down, is really a waste!"

Zu Long showed anger on his face, and began to vent his dissatisfaction towards the officials below.

After seeing Zulong like this, everyone shook their heads and sighed, they didn't expect such a situation.
