Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge
Chapter 291 Natural Enemies Control Locusts
Although Gu Xunwei still blushed after hearing about such things, she was no longer surprised. After all, she had heard about it a lot in recent days.
Who would have thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who always has a cold expression and a calm temperament, is actually a person who can say disgusting words anytime and anywhere in private.
Gu Xunwei used some strength to pull her hand out of his grasp. "Your Highness... Your Highness, have you figured out what to do next?"
Li Junhao was not angry when he saw her like this, because Xiao Fuzi once told him, "Women are the most shy. Generally speaking, as long as they are not angry, even if they refuse, they don't really want to refuse. That's called trying to refuse but still willing."
He twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled, "Of course, everything has been prepared, just waiting for them to return from Jinzhou."
"Then, Your Highness, how do you plan to deal with the Jinzhou issue?" Gu Xunwei continued to ask.
She was talking about the corruption and embezzlement that Li Junze had done during the Jinzhou disaster relief effort.
When Li Junhao heard her mention this, his expression became more serious. "I don't need to do anything about this matter. There are already quite a few refugees and officials in Jinzhou. They have written a letter to all the people about this matter and will send it to the capital soon."
Gu Xunwei was a little surprised. If this book of all people was really sent to the capital, it would be difficult for Prince An to turn things around this time.
"This is a very risky matter. There is no guarantee that someone will not have other ideas about this Wanminshu. Otherwise, I will ask the people from the Nanhai Escort Agency to escort them to the capital."
She was a little anxious. If the other party took action, innocent people would inevitably be implicated.
"Well, they have personnel representatives. I have asked the people who went there to tell them in advance that Wan Min Shu will go to Beijing separately from them, and Wan Min Shu will be brought back by my people." Li Junhao also refilled his teacup with some tea, picked it up and took a sip.
"Well, Your Highness is very thoughtful. I hope this disaster will not cause more people to suffer," Gu Xunwei said with some concern.
"Well, the locust plague has been contained. This is thanks to Gu Qiongsi's idea. She was the one who came up with the idea of using ducks to control the locust plague. It really worked."
Although Li Junhao was unwilling to admit it, Gu Qiongsi's idea did solve the locust plague in Jinzhou.
Otherwise, if the disaster is allowed to continue to develop, the surrounding states and counties will certainly be affected.
What he didn't know was that this was the most effective way to control locust plagues that many generations had figured out in Gu Qiongsi's time.
Gu Xunwei was also somewhat surprised when she heard this. How many things about Gu Qiongsi were there that they didn't know?
"Although she did this this time for Prince An and not for the people, it can be considered as a good thing for the people." Li Junhao said with a smile.
Gu Xunwei didn't think so. She always felt that if Gu Qiongsi was really someone else's soul, then where did her soul come from?
Using ducks to control locust plagues has never been heard of before, even in neighboring countries.
This made her even more confused, and she didn't react for a while when Li Junhao held her hand again.
"Wei'er, how about I tell your mother about my idea first, so that she won't always try to match you up with Sang Mo."
He felt aggrieved just thinking about it. How was he inferior to Sang Mo? Why had Su never thought about him?
After hearing this, Gu Xunwei suddenly broke free from her thoughts and said in panic, "No, Your Highness, you... I haven't thought about it yet?"
Ever since Li Junhao mentioned last time that he might not be the crown prince in the future, Gu Xunwei had some thoughts on it, but no matter how she weighed the pros and cons, she still felt it was inappropriate.
However, Li Junhao kept pressing her, forcing her to seriously consider the matter.
"Well, okay, I'll listen to you." Li Junhao sighed and compromised with Gu Xunwei.
But Gu Xunwei did not relax at all. Looking at the Crown Prince who was always aloof, serious and calm, and acting so submissive in front of her, she suddenly felt a little distressed for no reason.
She knew that she was attracted to Li Junhao, but in both her previous life and this life, she had never truly loved anyone. She only married Xie Cheng'an because he saved her life.
Therefore, she felt more grateful to Xie Cheng'an, and there was no love between men and women. That was why he had never been close to her in her previous life, and she did not feel sad at all. She only fulfilled her duties as a wife.
……
Gu Qiongsi indeed received great praise from Li Junze, and even Lord Niu looked at Gu Qiongsi differently at this time.
In the past, when they encountered a locust plague, they had no other choice but to kill them manually, but the effect was really very poor.
But this time, after listening to Gu Qiongsi's words, they gathered together all the ducks they could buy, and assigned special people to be responsible for raising them every day. Unexpectedly, after only three days, the disaster was contained.
This incident also made a group of officials and people ecstatic for a while.
Li Junze was also very happy. He was glad that he had listened to Gu Qiongsi's advice and used a method that he had never heard of before. It actually worked so quickly.
"Si'er is really amazing. She can come up with such a method. Lord Niu, the disaster relief grain has arrived today. I will go with you to the city gate tonight to check the porridge distribution situation."
Li Junze waved his hand and said excitedly that this incident finally added a ray of color to his disaster relief efforts. Now that he had returned to Beijing, he could publicize it well.
By that time, Gu Qiongsi would have become his concubine, and people's gratitude towards Gu Qiongsi would have turned into support for himself.
Niu Penghai nodded and said, "The relief grain has arrived. I will go over to count it. Please wait for a moment, Your Highness. I will go to the north gate with you when I come back."
After hearing what Niu Penghai said, Li Junze and Gu Qiongsi looked at each other. Only they knew that more than half of the sacks of relief food were filled with sand.
There was no other way. The people who went out to purchase grain had been out of time for several days but still could not collect so much grain. They had no choice but to break through the previously set grain collection circle and continue to collect grain from more distant counties.
Unfortunately, they still only received less than half of the quantity, and the price was much higher than the purchase price they had originally planned.
If they had not received the message from Li Junze asking them to return quickly and saying that the insufficient parts should be replaced with sand, they would not have known how to complete this mission.
