Daring, who stripped my prince of his vest?

Chapter 73 Drought



Chapter 73 Drought

"Father, I think we should directly bring grain from the imperial court to Ning'an City to provide porridge for disaster relief. This will not only show the importance the imperial court attaches to them, but also help you gain higher prestige." Dongfang Jun was the first to jump out and offered his suggestion confidently.

Dongfang Luo shook his head slightly, rolled his eyes at him and didn't respond.

Idiot, disaster relief is a necessity, there is nothing to be proud of, you bootlicker.

He continued to ask: "Besides disaster relief, are there any other ways?"

In one sentence, Dongfang Jun knew that Dongfang Luo did not agree with his idea.

As arrogant as Dongfang Jun was when he spoke just now, he now looked as dejected. He leaned aside dejectedly.

Dongfang Mo turned his head slightly and glanced at him. Just as Dongfang Luo thought, he was really an idiot.

It's a solution that anyone can think of, but he had the nerve to be so excited and be the first to say it out. It's really a joke.

Prime Minister Wang Xiao stroked his beard, then thought of something and stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I think we can let the people move out of Ning'an City directly. It may not be suitable for living here after a long period of no rain. We can arrange for them to settle down somewhere else."

Dongfang Yan held a different opinion. "Father, I think if they all move out of Ning'an City, it would be inappropriate to go anywhere. Not to mention that the local people should be tolerant and accept them from afar, once they move there, the sudden increase in population will cause a series of problems in the local area."

"Originally, one steamed bun should be shared by two people, but because of their arrival, one steamed bun has to be shared by ten people. If they all don't have enough to eat, won't it lead to some extreme problems, such as murder, arson, robbery, or even riots?"

Dongfang Luo nodded. It was indeed true. The second brother’s brain was not broken after all. He knew how to analyze the pros and cons.

But Wang Xiao's face darkened. The Prince of Nan would be his son-in-law soon, but he was still humiliating him like this. He really didn't know his place.

But he had to acknowledge his talent. He had just proposed the evacuation of the people out of a momentary rant and an attempt to take credit for the work, but he had not yet thought of a better solution.

After thinking about it, Yin Hai also stepped out and said, "I second the proposal. Prince Nan is right. I think the relocation of the people of Ning'an City is a big problem, and it will indeed face great problems in practice. But if it doesn't rain, does the court have to keep allocating disaster funds to them? In this case, the court's treasury will inevitably become empty."

"Then in your opinion, if it doesn't rain and the people don't move out of Ning'an City, what should we do next?" Dongfang Luo asked in return.

"This..." Yin Hai hesitated and couldn't say a word.

He doesn’t know either!

This was a natural disaster, what could he do? Would God agree to it if he asked for rain?

Several ministers were waiting to see him make a fool of himself, a guy who loves to show off.

"Okay, Lord Yin, please step back!" Dongfang Luo knew that he couldn't come up with any ideas, so she didn't make things difficult for him. After all, he was the father of her daughter-in-law, so she had to give him some face.

He looked at Dongfang Mo, who had been silent the whole time, and said, "Third Brother, tell me what you think about this matter. Of course, it would be better if you have an idea."

Dongfang Mo, who was named, slowly raised his head, looked at Dongfang Luo and said, "Father, I don't know, and I don't have any idea."

As soon as the words came out, there was a burst of laughter.

Dongfang Jun finally felt proud of himself, and with him as a backup, his father would definitely be even more dissatisfied with him and would not be able to say a word.

Before Dongfang Luo could reprimand him, he continued, "But just because I don't have a solution doesn't mean my wife doesn't have one."

As soon as these words were spoken, some officials immediately began to secretly laugh at Dongfang Mo. They, the court officials, could not come up with any good ideas, so what could a mere woman in his palace know.

"Third brother, what do you mean?" Dongfang Luo asked.

"It means exactly what it says." Faced with the officials' sarcasm and ridicule, Dongfang Mo was too disdainful to explain.

Dongfang Luo was so excited that he leaned forward and asked, "You mean what Youyou would do if she knew?"

He understood Dongfang Mo. He knew that he was not good at speaking and would not compete with others for anything. Although he did nothing, he was fearless.

Since he could say this, it means he knows something.

Retracting his thoughts, Dongfang Luo said to Eunuch Li beside him: "Pass on my order to summon Princess Jin to the palace. Hurry and hurry. There must be no mistakes."

"Yes, Your Majesty," Eunuch Li replied.

"Wait, remember to prepare a sedan chair for Princess Jin after entering the palace." Dongfang Luo added.

When his order came out, the officials looked bewildered. They would never believe that the Princess of Jin, who had just married into the Prince of Jin's Mansion, could come up with any good ideas, but the emperor actually believed it.

The emperor was particularly fond of her and allowed her to ride in a sedan chair from the palace gate to the imperial study, which was a great blessing from heaven.

They really couldn't guess what Dongfang Luo was thinking.

Yin Hai was also stunned. Did King Jin mean that Youyou had a better idea? Was he setting a trap for Youyou?

What if she couldn't tell it, or the emperor was not satisfied, wouldn't she...

But, the emperor has already given the order, so we can only adapt to the situation and save Youyou no matter what.

Dongfang Jun and Dongfang Yan had different thoughts, and they looked at Dongfang Mo with serious expressions.

Dongfang Mo took in all of their expressions.

Just wait and see! If I say she knows, she will definitely know.

Because before he received the order to enter the palace, Bu Xing reported to him that Yin Youyou had been making trouble in the backyard early in the morning, and even carried a hoe to dig up his palace, saying that he wanted to grow crops and produce high yields...

If it was just a trivial matter, Dongfang Luo would not ask him to come to the palace to discuss it, because it would be useless.

But now it is a matter of life and death for the people. Dongfang Luo asked him to come to the palace to discuss it immediately, and he could not refuse. After all, as the prince of Nanling Kingdom, he has the responsibility and obligation to protect the people of Nanling Kingdom.

Therefore, although he did not have time to ask Yin Youyou what she meant by this, he seemed to be able to sense her big move. This woman was not just what she seemed on the surface. It seemed that she was hiding a bigger secret.

Even if she couldn't come up with any good ideas, based on her unusual actions and thinking, she could definitely come up with some feasible methods.

Just because he doesn't compete with them doesn't mean his little tiger chooses to give up.

While waiting, Dongfang Luo had people seat everyone, add tea and serve snacks.

Dongfang Mo just sat in the chair with his eyes closed and took a nap.

Yin Youyou, who was plowing the soil with a hoe in Prince Jin's mansion, was suddenly taken away by the imperial guard Lin Yuan.

I followed him to the palace with a dazed look on my face, and then was stuffed into a sedan chair and carried to the imperial study.

Nani?

What dish does her emperor father-in-law want to eat? He even specially arranges a martial arts master to bring her into the palace.

"Princess Jin is here..." Eunuch Li shouted in a shrill voice.
