The queen died unjustly and was reborn as the empress.

Yun Qun was also very angry, grabbed a book and threw it next to Yun Ming.

Not only was he angry that the royal brother did things without thinking, but he was even more angry that he had made such a huge sum of money without telling him. He clearly didn't regard him as a brother, but it was in vain that he had been following him to support him.

Moreover, this matter let the father know that he and the prince could not afford to go around alone.

The prince still has the queen to protect him, but as for him, he only has one concubine who is not favored, and might even implicate the entire mother clan.

As he thought about it, his eyes towards Yun Ming became complicated.

The old man also saw the change in Yun Qun's eyes and knitted his eyebrows in deep thought.

After a while, he said: "You are on the same ship now. No one can escape the blame if something goes wrong. The emperor hasn't discovered it yet, so it's still too late. The prince hastily sent people to rush to Canaan State to transport the grain. As for now, Regarding the national rations in the imperial city, the Sixth Prince will first take out the cushion from his residence."

Yun Ming's eyes lit up and he became more energetic: "Mr. Jie Mo is still very resourceful."

The corners of Jie Mo's lips raised slightly and he said, "It's my duty to share the prince's worries, but there's just one question I can't figure out."

Jie Mo paused and continued: "A small snack shop does not need so much even if it is to increase food on weekdays. An entire treasury granary can be enough to feed everyone in the imperial capital for several years, unless."

"They knew about the locust plague early on, and they must get to the bottom of this matter."

Speaking of this, Jie Mo's eyes became darker, or there were some other forces hiding behind this shop. Is it Jiang Guo? Quanguo? Or other small countries?

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?" Yun Ming clapped his hands excitedly and called the secret guard to implement it immediately, and disappeared in a puff of energy.

There is definitely something wrong with harvesting a large amount of grain and still harvesting it several times higher than the market price.

He must have known about the locust plague in advance and made this preparation. When the food is in short supply and sell it at a high price, he will definitely make a lot of money.

The more the three of them thought about this, the more they thought it was true, and they all came to a conclusion: this is a profiteer, a businessman more greedy than the prince.

"Now, are you going to buy it back from him?" Yun Ming was really reluctant to give up when he said this. The 90,000 taels of gold he had just received was still warm.

Yun Qun and Jie Mo looked at him one after another. Yun Qun felt very contemptuous and said, "Brother, is there any better way?" At this time, he still wanted to get the money.

Yun Ming said nothing. He was at fault in this matter. After he told Butler Liu about buying food tomorrow, the three of them dispersed.

In the court hall on the second day, Yun Ming said a lot of generous words, the main idea of ​​which was: Ningguo is in trouble now. As a minister, you should serve the country. If you have money, give money and if you have food, give food.

Emperor Tianxuan liked this method very much. After supporting these old ministers for so long, it was time for them to contribute.

Gao Ping is Gao Nianxin's father, and his daughter is the Crown Princess. He naturally stands on the Crown Prince's team. When the Crown Prince proposes something, he is the first to respond, and others rush to follow.

For a time, people in the court were moved to the heart, and all the ministers contributed money and efforts, and the amount was quite large.

Yun Ming thought something was wrong. These old ministers were very cunning, and all they paid was money, not even a little bit of rice.

Who in the court doesn't know that there is a locust plague now? What is the most precious thing? Of course it's food.

They had plenty of money, because they went to Shiweifang when they collected grain at high prices, and even moved the grain from their own grain store.

They thought the same as the prince. After autumn, recycling is not as good as fate. Now every family is in a hurry for food, so they have to go to the food shop to queue up to get porridge and steamed buns.

In the main hall, only Bai Chengyang spread his hands and said, "I have no silver in my family, but I have some grain."

Yun Ming stared at Bai Chengyang excitedly, his eyes shining. Finally, someone was willing to provide food.

"Yesterday, my daughter Bai Lan told me that my respected teacher, Dr. Ye, was traveling abroad and gave her all the shops to take care of. Shiwei Fang has been giving porridge and food. People's livelihood is a major issue in the world. I and my daughter combined it and merged the food collected at home into Shiweifang, let’s fight against this locust plague together.”

Yun Ming smiled bitterly, "Bai Xiang really understands justice." But in his heart, he cursed Bai Chengyang: Isn't it good to leave the things to him?

Emperor Tianxuan was very pleased to see the ministers in the hall being so proactive, but he didn't know the pain in everyone's heart. Today they have money to spend everywhere, but they don't know whether they will have hot porridge to drink tomorrow.

"I was very moved when I saw such a scene this morning."

Emperor Tianxuan wiped the corner of his eyes as he spoke, and continued: "The locust plague in the south is urgent. At present, we must not only deal with the food problem, but also solve the locust crisis. I wonder if my loyal ministers have any good suggestions?"

Below, there was silence. After a long while, Gao Ping said first: "We can send out troops to catch them with nets."

Some ministers agreed, but some objected, "The locusts are so large in number and range, and they can fly and jump. How can a mere soldier catch them all?"

When everyone heard it, it was indeed true, but no one could think of a better way at the moment. What else could the locusts do besides hunting them down?

After a long time, Emperor Tianxuan said: "Ming'er, let's leave for Canaan today. If we delay going south any longer, I'm afraid there will be chaos."

Yun Ming was afraid that Emperor Tianxuan would mention this matter, and whatever he feared would happen.

"Yes, my dear, we will set off today." A large amount of wetness appeared on my back, but luckily I couldn't tell because I was wearing an extra layer of late-autumn clothes.

"If you have any merit in this locust plague, I will reward you greatly! If nothing happens, just go away and think about it." Emperor Tianxuan stood up and left with the support of Zhang Zhong.

After walking out of the hall and passing through the imperial garden, Emperor Tianxuan sat down on a stone bench and said, "Each of you depends on your ability. What do you think?" He turned to look at Zhang Zhong.

Zhang Zhong smiled and said: "The six princes are all excellent. The method proposed by the prince today is the best. Those old guys usually make nothing, but today they made a lot."

Emperor Tianxuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Of course, he is my prince." The two chatted for a while in the imperial garden before leaving.

After Yun Ming returned home, he immediately sent someone to sort out the money collected today, but Butler Liu was nowhere to be seen. After asking, he found out that Butler Liu had gone to Shiweifang and had not returned yet.

He, Yun Qun, and Jie Moyi worked together, and everything went according to plan. At this moment, Butler Liu came in disgraced.

Yun Ming rolled his eyes at him: "You've been out for so long and you're back like this? What do you say over there?"

Butler Liu had a mournful face and said, "I went there early today. Miss Bai and Shopkeeper Wang were both there. I told Shopkeeper Wang that I wanted to buy back the rice that I had sold before, and Shopkeeper Wang agreed readily. But the price..."

Butler Liu took out five fingers and waved them in front of the three people.

"Five times?! Robbery!" Yun Ming blew his beard angrily.

Butler Liu shook his head, "What five times, it's fifty times! The younger ones also said it was too expensive, but Miss Bai said that food is scarce now and cannot be generalized to that at that time. I'm afraid I won't even be able to drink porridge. "
