Chapter 388 The messenger leaves the capital
Yaowang Mansion!
"Prince, the envoys from Dongliao and the other two countries have come no less than four times. You really don't see each other?" Lan Yi stood in front of the wide desk in the study and asked respectfully.
"No!" Baili Mochen was lowering his head and correcting the emergency memorials sent from various places, and said without raising his head.
"But if this is really only half of the previous year, I'm afraid that the people on the border will not be able to live in peace this winter!" Lan Yi said with a little worried expression.
In previous years, when the food was given was sufficient, people on the border would be harassed by the Huns and other countries, not to mention that they only gave half of it this year.
Every winter, the Huns would go south to burn, kill and loot the people on the border, and in recent years the people on the border have been even more miserable.
"So what?" Baili Mochen stopped the movement in his hand, suddenly raised his head and looked at Lan Yi and said.
"Well, the prince, I'm talking too much. Please forgive me!" Lan Yi came back to his senses and immediately bowed his head to admit his mistake.
The prince decided that he was careless for the moment when others could interrupt.
"Go out and tell them that the national treasury is scarce this year and the food given to them is ready. I am busy serving the emperor's illness. The Minister of Rites will take the leave for me."
Baili Mochen glanced at Lan Yi with deep eyes, and then said lightly.
"Yes, I'll go now!" Lan Yi, who made a mistake, quickly took the order out to do business.
...
Beijing Inn.
Lou Yuqing stood opposite Hongluan and said with a bad look.
"Hongluan, aren't you having some friendship with King Yao? Otherwise, if you are talking to him, half of the food will definitely not work, otherwise it will be difficult to survive this winter."
"Hmph, do you think that the selfless and wise Prince Yao in the eyes of the world will confuse state affairs simply because of a little personal affair?" Hongluan turned around and said sarcastically.
It’s not that Hongluan doesn’t want to find Baili Mochen, but she knows Baili Mochen’s attitude towards her now.
I'm afraid he has already known about his secret help to Bailihe, and the last warning is still vivid in my ears.
So she could only respond to Lou Yuqing in this way.
"What should I do? Are you just watching the people starve to death like this?" Lou Yuqing was anxious and excited, and his voice couldn't help but feel a little louder.
It can be seen that Lou Yuqing is still a loving prince, at least he is quite concerned about the affairs of the people.
"What should I do? What can I do? What can I do if you yell at me?" Hongluan was in a bad mood and was furious by this loud questioning, and said bluntly.
"I..." The building was speechless for a while.
In fact, he was not yelling at Hongluan, but he was a little anxious and louder.
Fortunately, the two have been familiar with each other since childhood, so they have not had a big fuss about this.
After the efforts of many parties failed, countries returned to their own acre of three-point land with only the average grain of previous years.
Before leaving, when the Minister of Rites saw him off, except for Master Nanchen with a smile, everyone looked unhappy.
"Mr. Lin doesn't have to be too polite, just send it here!" Master Ye Su said with a humble look on his face.
"Okay, the National Master will have a good journey!" Lin Shangshu also bowed and smiled.
After the fall of the previous Minister of Rites, Lord Li, the Lord surnamed Lin took over the reign of the Ministry of Rites.
