When he saw it clearly, he was also very surprised and shocked, "It's actually him!"

His face turned pale and his hands holding the folding fan were shaking.

Eunuch Fu immediately poured a cup of tea and handed it over. "Your Majesty, calm down. This servant is also shocked. I never thought it would be the young prince."

The emperor drank the tea with trembling hands, "I didn't expect that either."

The fat man is the empress dowager's youngest brother, Fu Hongtang, the emperor's seventh uncle.

The Queen Mother also loves this younger brother the most.

If the case is handled according to the law, the Queen Mother will definitely not be able to bear it.

But after doing this, I have to deal with it.

Eunuch Fu asked cautiously, "What should we do now? This is no small matter. It concerns the lives of so many people and is a matter of national crisis."

The emperor rubbed his brows and frowned for a long while before saying, "We'll do what needs to be done. Keep it a secret from the Empress Dowager for now."

In the next room, Jiang Yan asked with some confusion, "How can we transport so much food and fodder out of the city? Even if we send it out in batches, it will be noticed."

Soldiers would check when leaving the city. Even if you were disguised as a cloth merchant, carrying so much cloth at one time would be a cause for suspicion. It would be impossible for every batch to get through.

Fu Hongtang turned around and returned to his chair, smiled and said, "Do you think the underground secret room is just for storing food? That's also a secret passage, a secret passage that leads directly to the outside of the city."

"You can see that the house isn't far from the city wall. That's why we chose to store the grain there. Since it's close, the secret passage doesn't need to be too long..."

Suddenly, the door slammed open loudly, and a man dressed in Jinyiwei uniform rushed in.

Fu Hongtang was frightened out of his wits by the sudden scene, and after he came to his senses, he ran towards the window.

Even though the second floor was quite high, he jumped down without hesitation.

Ouch……!

He got up in pain and tried to continue running while limping.

"Stop!" Jiang Mengli suddenly appeared in front of him and kicked him.

ah……!

"It hurts so much, you nosy woman..." Fu Hongtang fell heavily to the ground and was unable to get up.

Jiang Mengli stepped on his face and gnashed her teeth, saying, "You bastard, you're helping the tyrant. I'm meddling in other people's business. What can you do to me?"

The emperor stuck his head out of the upstairs window and watched the scene silently.
