Chapter 223 Shi Wanxian’s sudden visit
Mu Feng said calmly: "Your Highness, I have sent people to check. According to the news, Chu Huanyan had sent people to collect food as early as the snow in early winter. Maybe he noticed the weather from the snow. There are differences, so prepare in advance.”
"So Xiao Jinzhi has known this for a long time." Xiao Rongxuan frowned tightly, "No wonder he dared to issue a military order in front of his father!"
In the past few days, Xiao Jinzhi sent people to treat the victims and stabilize people's hearts. Even the refugees who poured into the imperial city found a place to stay.
Now there is no need to worry about rice and grain. If this continues, maybe Xiao Jinzhi can really solve the disaster relief issue smoothly!
"Your Highness, it seems that His Highness the Crown Prince has indeed handled the situation properly. He has even considered the possibility of epidemics after the disaster and has taken strict precautions. I'm afraid we won't find any opportunities this time." Mu Fengchen said the voice.
These days, in accordance with His Highness's instructions, he has been sending people to keep a close eye on His Highness, but he has indeed not found any flaws.
In addition, Chu Huanyan has solved the rice grain issue and is now famous. Under this situation, they are afraid that they will not be able to do anything. unless……
"They have no mistakes, so we will give them some mistakes." Xiao Rongxuan smiled coldly, "Didn't Chu Huanyan send out a lot of vouchers? If they try to tamper with them..."
"Your Highness, I'm afraid it's impossible." Mu Feng shook his head, "Chu Huanyan is not that careless. There must be anti-counterfeiting marks on the voucher. And the registration is very careful. If you want to fake it, I'm afraid it will have little effect. "
"Her shop was simply burned down over there." Xiao Rongxuan looked at Mu Feng, "Anyway, we can't let Xiao Jinzhi complete the disaster relief smoothly."
"Has His Highness seriously thought about it? This matter affects so many people in the Imperial City. Once someone discovers it, it will be a devastating blow to His Highness's reputation."
During this period, His Highness was provoked by the Crown Prince and Chu Huanyan to act radically several times. The incident in Liangshui Lane has seriously affected His Highness's reputation. Instead of taking risks at this time, it is better to wait and see what happens.
"Who said that this prince is going to take action himself." Xiao Rongxuan chuckled, "I just got a knife not long ago. Although I don't wholeheartedly target this prince, it is still okay to threaten him to do something."
"Your Highness means...Shi Cunhou?"
"That's right, let him do it. If the majestic Duke Shi can't even start a fire, then this prince can only publicize what he has done in the past."
Mu Feng lowered his eyes, and after a long while, he nodded and said, "I understand."
……
"Miss, we did another inventory today. According to the current sales situation, our current food supply is more than enough to last for two months."
Shopkeeper Wang held the booklet in his hand and reported the report to Chu Huanyan with a smile on his face.
And since Ge Hong's incident, other rice shops that originally sold high prices have gradually restored their prices.
Although there is still no rice that can be transported into the imperial city for the time being, judging from the current food reserves, it is definitely enough.
"It's enough, but at times like this, we can't take it lightly." Chu Huanyan warned.
After making sure nothing happened, Chu Huanyan left the shop.
It was already evening, and although the streets were not as lively as before, some stalls had been set up one after another.
Chu Huanyan arrived all the way to the Hou Mansion, only to find a carriage waiting at the door.
"Miss Shi?" Looking at Shi Wanxian coming out of the carriage, Chu Huanyan raised her eyebrows slightly.
She had not seen Shi Wanxian since her last visit to the Duke's Mansion. It was a bit strange that she suddenly appeared at the door of the Duke's Mansion, and at this time.
"Miss Chu." Shi Wanxian bowed, "I hope Miss Chu won't be offended by interrupting me so hastily."
"Ms. Shi's words are serious, please." Chu Huanyan motioned for the other party to enter the house first.
But Shi Wanxian hesitated, "I wonder if Miss Chu can have dinner?"
"Not yet." Chu Huanyan shook her head.
"Then if Miss Chu is willing to honor her, I would like to invite Miss Chu to a restaurant for dinner." Shi Wanxian said with a smile, but there was a hint of embarrassment in her smile, as if she was embarrassed for her presumption.
Chu Huanyan looked at Shi Wanxian and smiled: "That would be disrespectful."
After half a stick of incense, Chu Huanyan and Shi Wanxian sat opposite each other in the restaurant.
Xian Yue and Shi Wanxian's maid stood a little further away.
After the waiter left, Shi Wanxian picked up the teacup in front of her and spoke apologetically to Chu Huanyan.
"Miss Chu was injured at the previous banquet at the Duke's Mansion. I have always felt a little guilty in my heart. Today I will offer tea to Miss Chu instead of wine. I hope Miss Chu can forgive me."
"Miss Shi is serious. What happened that day... was just an accident. Speaking of disturbing the banquet at the Duke's Mansion, I should be the one to apologize." Chu Huanyan also picked up the teacup in front of her.
"Miss Chu, please don't say that. Don't worry, I'm very grateful." Shi Wanxian pursed her lips and took a sip of the tea in the cup.
When they put down the tea cups, the two were silent for a while. Shi Wanxian lowered her eyes and looked at the tea in front of her, speechless for a moment.
Chu Huanyan looked at her like this, and after a while, she finally spoke.
"Ms. Shi, just say what you have to say."
After the incident at the Duke's Mansion last time, she and Shi Wanxian had not seen each other again.
Moreover, today is only the second meeting between the two of them, and there is really no friendship between them. Naturally, it is impossible to come here suddenly just to apologize.
"Miss Chu." Shi Wanxian raised her head, her eyes filled with confusion, "I, I..."
Seeing Shi Wanxian who was hesitant to speak, Chu Huanyan did not urge anything, but just picked up the tea in front of her again.
"No matter what Miss Shi wants to say, if you haven't made up your mind, there is no need to force it. Let's just treat it as a chance encounter today, so we can have dinner together."
Hearing Chu Huanyan's words, Shi Wanxian's expression became more complicated. At this moment, the waiter who had just retired came to serve the food, but Shi Wanxian did not speak again.
When all the dishes were served and the waiter left, Shi Wanxian took a deep breath and said, "I interrupted you rashly today. I think it must have delayed Miss Chu's usual meal time. Miss Chu, please."
Chu Huanyan looked at Shi Wanxian. It seemed that she had swallowed what she wanted to say.
Picking up the chopsticks in front of her, Chu Huanyan said "Miss Shi, please" and began to eat without speaking again.
It gets dark early in winter, and all the way from the Hou Mansion to the restaurant, plus the time just now, the sky outside has become completely dark, and the night is thick.
Shi Wanxian was restless as she ate the dishes in front of her, feeling that they tasted like chewing wax. When Chu Huanyan across from her finished eating and slowly put down her chopsticks, she finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Gritting his teeth, he stood up and saluted Chu Huanyan.
"Miss Chu, I'm really sorry."
