Husband-in-Law: Reborn Peasant Girl Busy Farming

The hairs of the people kneeling below stood on end.

Xue Lince couldn't help but feel startled when he looked at it.

The table was solid wood after all.

It was obviously beyond his imagination that one palm could break the table into pieces.

"I asked you, why didn't you answer?" The regent looked at Cai Tiao, who was kneeling at the front.

"Xiaoguan, Xiaguan..." Cai Tiao couldn't explain why.

After all, there is a difference of 25 times between forty Wen and one or two.

"Okay, I won't ask you about the price of the food." The regent raised his chin to Zhang Fan, and a small official standing behind him took out a sack and threw it in front of Cai Tiao with a bang. , "Let me learn more about what Shandong's food is like!"

Before the little official could do anything, the regent pulled out a dagger from his boot, and stabbed it straight into the sack on the ground.

The rice inside was dull, a little gray, and rarely whole grains. As soon as a few handfuls flowed out, Xue Lince already smelled stale.

At this time, Cai Tiao's face was ashen, and he sat on the ground without saying a word.

"Lord Cai, Cai Zhifu, Cai Tiao!" The regent kicked him on the shoulder suddenly, and the old prefect leaned back and almost fell, but the people behind him helped him to stay on the ground.

"This is the rice you sell to the victims for a tael of silver!" The regent's voice echoed in the county mansion, and the people around were silent and did not dare to make a sound, for fear of being caught by the regent in the next second Be a model, "As a court official, where is your conscience? Is this rice for you to eat!"

"Your Highness!" At this moment, a young man beside Cai Tiao climbed out, knelt on the ground, kowtowed a few times, and then said, "This is not what Master Cai wanted!"

"Hmph," the regent snorted coldly, as if he was looking at a dead person, "then you should tell me, what is this 'not what he wants'!"

Xue Lince was with Chen Cheng, and couldn't help but sweat for the young man.

"Your Highness, you don't know that there is no grain left in the treasury..." the young man said sadly, "The city was flooded, and the granaries of the county government offices were also hit. It’s really killing people!”

There were whispers of sobbing all around, causing the Regent to frown.

Seeing that the regent didn't speak, the young man knelt on the ground and continued, "These grains were bought from other places by wealthy households in Licheng. He said that buying these grains would cost close to two taels per bucket. Originally, he said that the grains were scarce. Mr. Cai is the one who won’t sell in five-two-one fights..."

"Chen Xing! Stop talking!" Cai Tiao interrupted him at the right time, "Your Highness is right, I should take responsibility for these things..."

"You're right." The regent didn't pay attention to what they said just now, and his voice was full of sarcasm. "Everything that happened here should be borne by you!"

"A bucket of rice is nearly two taels? Cai Tiao, tell me, is it because I look like a fool, or is it that you, Cai Tiao, have a head on top of your chest!" The table just now was smashed by him, and there is nothing to photograph now Yes, I can only glare at the person in front of me, "Can you believe this?"

"There is no food in the city, and the lower officials have nothing to do..." Cai Tiao's voice was a little low, but everyone present could hear it.

Xue Lince shook his head helplessly.

Could it be that the magistrate thought that he could soften the heart of the man in front of him by performing a trick?
It's a joke.

Leaving aside whether the king regent will soften his heart, Xue Lince, a political idiot, can see the clues from these words alone.

If I interrupted just now, it is probably that Cai Zhifu used the money from the provincial government to buy part of the grain, which is why he paid a tael of silver for a bucket.

Otherwise, it will be five taels.

This seems to be fine.

But do these really treat others as fools?

Even if someone wants to make this kind of money, they will not be so stupid as to use old rice that is almost worn out to do this business. Some of them are of better quality and lower price than him. Why do they have to buy this from other places?
I think it's just because the rice is cheap. Looking at the quality, none of the Tang family's horses would feed it.

After all, if it hurts the stomach, I don't know how much it will cost in the future.

The water here is quite deep.

At this time, Xue Lince was a little fortunate that it was the regent who brought people to relieve the disaster.

If only he and Chen Cheng came, they might not be able to stop these moths.

Wanting to be greedy for disaster relief money is not a matter of good intentions, but a matter of both himself and the heads of the nine clans wanting to give it to the regent King Dui Jingguan.

"Come here, the chief villain, Cai Tiao, will be escorted to the prison, and the rest will be escorted to Beijing." The regent said, and his subordinates hurried forward to detain him.

"Your Highness can't!" The person who spoke for Cai Tiao just now spoke again, "Master Cai is dedicated to the people, how can His Highness be like this? Besides, you can't punish a doctor, and Mr. Cai is a fourth-rank magistrate, why..."

"My lord has forgotten you." The regent walked up to the man, lowered his head slightly to look at the young man's stubborn face, and showed a sinister smile, "This dog is loyal, and he knows a lot. Cai Tiao was taken to prison together."

The old magistrate could no longer stand at this time, and was barely able to walk with the help of the yamen servants.

Before leaving, he didn't say anything else, only took another deep look at the regent before being dragged away.

"Okay, just be busy with whatever you should be busy with." The regent seemed to have a headache, pressed his temple, and when he raised his face again, he only felt a little pale. You have to set it up well, if the porridge can take a picture of a person, the cell next to Cai Tiao is for you!"

Xue Lince bowed to Chen Cheng, and the two turned around and left.

It's just that as soon as Xue Lince walked to the door, he was stopped by the regent.

"Xue Yuanwailang stay here!" Chen Cheng turned his head slightly, gave him a self-seeking expression, and left in a hurry.

Just kidding, it's time now, if you don't hurry up and prepare, do you really want to stay in the prison?
Xue Lince didn't speak, just stood where he was, waiting for the regent's order.

"My lord, I'm here to tell you that you are here with your family?" The regent's voice was full of disdain, as if he had already confirmed that Xue Lince wanted to enjoy himself, "I tell you, this is disaster relief, not a tour! "

"Yes." Xue Lince saluted. He felt that Tang Luoyu had been wronged, and he felt uncomfortable. He knew that he should not speak now, but he couldn't help it, "It's just that my wife is here to help."

"Oh?" The regent snorted coldly, and looked at Xue Lince in front of him, "Then I have to listen carefully, what can your family members do to help!"

"This time the incident happened suddenly, and the person came in a hurry. It's just that my wife has received the title of Yiren thanks to the grace of the Holy One. She felt that she could not live up to the gift of the Holy Majesty. Therefore, in addition to the money donated before, another batch of medicinal materials was brought here."
