After late at night, the rain gradually decreased and turned into a drizzle.

Lin Xi, who was worried about flooding due to too much precipitation, is now relieved.

Next, just make sure that there are several states in Dazhou that it rains.

If it rains only in Fengzhou, and the worst-hit mountain state, Xinzhou Chizhou, does not receive any rain, then this praying for rain is just a fluke, and it will not help the essence.

But fortunately, three days later, Wu Yue's arrival brought him good news.

Comes with a bit of bad news.

"According to the news from various states, there is a certain amount of rainfall throughout Dazhou, which is enough to alleviate the drought."

"At first, I was worried that there would be a flood after the severe drought, but this rain was very spiritual. The heavy rain in Shanzhou lasted for three days. The news sent back by Kuaima this morning said that the rain suddenly stopped, which is really incredible..."

"If the weather returns to normal in the future, and the states seize the time to replant for another season, the food shortage will be eased a lot."

A faint look of excitement appeared on Wu Yue's face.

Obviously this rain made her very excited, but her long-accustomed depressive personality made her try her best to restrain herself.

"Da Zhou is actually not short of food, as long as the aristocratic family is willing to release food, the food shortage will be solved soon."

Lin Xi was paralyzed on Ge You, with no image at all.

He has already grasped Wu Yue's personality almost, and he is too lazy to maintain his superficial politeness.

"I'm about to ask, how to let them release food?"

"…Um."

Lin Xi raised his eyes to look at the respected and beloved Eldest Princess, and then gave a mean smile.

"As for me, it's not good for us to help our relatives or not. It's not good for us to settle the family, but let Wu Santong sit back and enjoy the benefits. I don't like it very much."

After finishing speaking, he simply put his hands on the pillow and lay on his back on the floor.

But this lazy appearance didn't make Wu Yue feel unhappy at all, instead he showed a smile.

"Brother Huang really shouldn't occupy that position."

"Huh? What do you mean... have you made up your mind?"

This time it was Lin Xi's turn to be puzzled, and the body that had just been lying down suddenly sat up again.

"Ah."

"It's interesting to say that I fasted for three days in the imperial city, and the emperor not only didn't care about the rain, he didn't even come to visit once."

"Yesterday evening, after I ended my fast, I found out that Brother Huang has recruited another group of male pets into the palace, and I haven't gotten out of bed for several days."

Ah this...

Listening to Wu Yue's plain narration, Lin Xi's expression was as if he had seen a ghost.

No wonder the queen is a...

It turns out that the emperor is a base!
"That's not right, isn't there hundreds of concubines in his harem?"

"That's all for those male pets."

"...my day!!"

Shocked me for three years!
The emperor chooses a concubine for his beloved man!
What a great feeling.

Lin Xi didn't feel relieved for a long time.

Outrageous fucking to open the door to outrageous is not so outrageous.

"I will force the emperor to abdicate, but not now."

"I came to you this time because of a more troublesome matter."

A trace of fatigue finally appeared on Wu Yue's face.

"What's bothering you so much?"

"The third prince of the Song Dynasty is dead."

"what?"

"Just at noon yesterday, he died in the post house of Honglu Temple. He was poisoned by a strange poison. After the poison broke out, he died suddenly."

The prince of a country was poisoned to death in the posthouse of Honglu Temple in Dazhou!

This is already a diplomatic accident of a very serious nature.

To put it bluntly, even if the third prince is not favored, Song Guo will ask Da Zhou for an explanation for the sake of face, and even act as if he is approaching the city in order to obtain the greatest compensation.

When it gets bigger, there is no limit.

If Emperor Song got angry and vowed to avenge his son, a great war between the two countries would usher in.

As for the extent of the hit, no one can predict.

With the current national strength of the Great Zhou, it is difficult to maintain even a small war, let alone a large-scale war that may develop into it.

No wonder the eldest princess had a headache.

The house leaks happen to rain all night, this is it.

After finally patching a board, a bigger hole was broken.

"Old thief Lin is going to smash the jar..."

This matter made Lin Xi feel a little headache.

But who is the instigator, both of them can easily think.

Except for Lin Ruiyang, no one would do such an extreme thing at this time.

Whether it is a family or a powerful person, living under the wings of the Great Zhou is the best choice for them.

Once the Great Zhou is gone, no matter how powerful the family is, it will become a second-class family in the Song Dynasty, not to mention the rich and powerful. If the Great Zhou is gone, who will give them power and wealth.

So it's pretty clear who did it.

Only Lin Ruiyang can do this kind of thing like dancing on the grave.

"I really didn't expect him to do such an extreme thing. Originally, if he was willing to transfer power frankly, it would not be impossible for him to spend his old age peacefully..."

"Tch, that's your wishful thinking. Anyone in Lin Ruiyang's position would not pin their hopes on the enemy's kindness."

"...you're right."

Although the words were a bit harsh, Wu Yue had to admit that what he said was quite reasonable.

"But it doesn't matter, this will make it easier for the aristocratic family to hand over the excess grain in their hands."

"Why?"

"It's very simple. It's not a difficult choice for the aristocratic family whether to be a subjugated slave and seek refuge with the Song State, or to continue to dominate the land of the Great Zhou."

Lin Xi tapped on the table in front of him and began to tell.

"First of all, after the representatives of the aristocratic family enter Beijing, we immediately gather them together to display the raw materials of glass products, so that they can see the terrifying profits in this, and they are willing to join our chamber of commerce."

"Secondly, inform them of the current predicament and the solution, and ask them to hand over their fields and open warehouses to release grain in exchange."

"If they don't want to, and still want to take advantage of the opportunity to get food, then show them this."

The knocking sound stopped suddenly, and Lin Xi took out a potato seed and a sweet potato seed from his bosom.

"These two are... seeds?"

Wu Yue is not a royal princess who knows nothing about farming. When he saw these two items at first glance, he immediately judged that they should be the seeds of some kind of crop.

"Good eyesight, they are two new crops."

A look of disappointment flashed in Wu Yue's eyes.

I thought he had some good strategy, but I didn't expect it was just two crops.

No matter how quickly the crops mature, the distant water cannot quench the near thirst.

"Hey! What kind of eyes do you have?"

"These two are magical tools! The yield per mu is more than three thousand catties casually, do you understand? If it is popularized, no one will starve to death in Dazhou in the future!"

Seeing the eldest princess' eyes, Lin Xi felt very hurt.

I have made a big sacrifice again, you ignorant!

"How much? Three thousand catties?!"

"how is this possible!"

Wu Yue subconsciously felt that Lin Xi was lying.

How could there be such a high-yield crop.

Dazhou rice is planted twice a year, and the total yield per mu is only five or six hundred catties.

If these two crops yield more than [-] catties per mu, then... how much grain should there be?

She suddenly felt her head go down a bit.

Can't figure it out.
