659 Aristocratic Family, the Cui Family will never be a help
Feng Qingchen didn't hear wrong, and the Ninth Prince didn't say wrong either.
If that woman was Feng Qingchen, he would marry her even if she had lost her virginity before marriage!
Just this one sentence ended the argument between the two people. You looked at me, I looked at you, and no one said anything.
This time, it was not that they were unwilling to give in, but both of them were reluctant to break this warm atmosphere. This moment became eternal for both of them.
You only have me in your eyes, and I only have you in my eyes.
Later, I don’t know whether it was the Ninth Prince who hugged Feng Qingchen first, or Feng Qingchen who leaned into the Ninth Prince’s arms. Anyway…
The two quarreled for no apparent reason and ended it inexplicably, but neither of them felt that there was anything wrong with it. After reconfirming their position in each other's hearts, both were very satisfied.
Who says quarreling is meaningless? How can they know what the other person is thinking without quarreling? How can they know that the other person trusts them so much without quarreling?
After the quarrel, both of them felt sweet in their hearts and had a lot to say to each other, but unfortunately... there was no time. The Ninth Prince let go of her hand, stood up, and clumsily brushed the folds around Feng Qingchen's waist.
There were many things he wanted to tell Qingchen, but after talking for a long time, he only picked out the simplest sentence: "Tomorrow's free clinic, I will let Su Wenqing help you, don't tire yourself out."
Feng Qingchen's eyes lit up, and he looked straight at the Ninth Uncle, asking silently: Do you agree with my plan? Don't you think it's risky?
The Ninth Prince nodded with a smile and patted Feng Qingchen on the head: "Qingchen is this king's lucky star."
Hmm... Feng Qingchen blushed in embarrassment. The Ninth Prince did not tease her and gently kissed her between the eyebrows: "Go to bed early."
Sweet dreams, there is me in the dream, only me!
The Ninth Prince no longer lingered and strode out, instantly disappearing into the night, leaving Feng Qingchen alone where he was. It took him a long time to come back to his senses, then he smiled nonchalantly and climbed onto the bed.
When she chose to be the Ninth Prince's woman, she understood what she had to endure and what she had to take on. She wanted to be with the Ninth Prince forever and spend all her time together. That was impossible. She had to endure separation and loneliness. Although she felt empty inside, but...
The area between the eyebrows is warm.
Just as the Ninth Prince said, Feng Qingchen slept well that night, but unfortunately he was not in her dream.
After the Ninth Prince left Feng Mansion, he came to the secret room of Su Mansion. Su Wenqing received the notice from the Ninth Prince and waited for the Ninth Prince in the secret room early. When he saw the Ninth Prince come in, he quickly stood up: "Ninth..."
Su Wenqing hesitated. When he was about to call the Ninth Uncle, the Ninth Uncle interrupted him directly: "Have you arranged the food for the porridge? How are you going to transport the food to various places in such a heavy snow?"
He spent too much time with Feng Qingchen and had no time to talk to Su Wenqing.
"I have already calculated the food supply and arranged the transportation plan. The area affected this time is too wide. Except for the area south of the Yangtze River, all the towns in the northwest have been affected to varying degrees by the snowstorm. I roughly calculated that with the food we have stored, we can support it for half a month. If we take out the potatoes and sweet potatoes, we can support it for about a month.
I have stored a batch of grain in each town. We can use that batch of grain for disaster relief first. The local grain can last for three to four days. I will transport the rest from the Jiangnan area. However, the snow is too heavy and the river is frozen. We can't go by water. If we go by land, it will probably be very slow."
"The potatoes and sweet potatoes cannot be exposed at this time. We should use the stored food first. If it is not enough, we can use the military rations. With such a heavy snow this year, next year will definitely be a bumper year. We will not be short of food next year. If the food in the army is not enough, tell Yuwen Yuanhua to take out the potatoes and sweet potatoes to keep the soldiers going for a while."
Once potatoes and sweet potatoes are popularized, the people of the Jiuzhou continent will no longer have to worry about not having enough to eat. The yield per mu of these two crops is extremely high, and the Ninth Prince is well aware of this.
He would promote these two crops, but not now. Now he must rely on these two things to feed his soldiers and enable him to support a large enough army.
"Okay." Su Wenqing nodded, spread out the map, and pointed to the towns closest to the disaster area: "I plan to transfer grain from Xuzhou and Qingzhou Military Regions. Jiuqing, do you think it is feasible?"
"If you travel by land, it will take at least five or six days. If the road is blocked by heavy snow, you will be unable to travel at all. The food you have stored there will not last more than five days. The plans Feng Qingchen mentioned are all centered around disaster relief. If the relief does not achieve the desired effect, everything will be in vain." The Ninth Prince was not being difficult, but stating the truth.
The publicity that Feng Qingchen mentioned presupposes that he has to do something grand and big that all the people know about, and disaster relief is this big thing. If disaster relief is not done well, no matter how good other things are said, it will be of no use.
This time, they have to spend a lot of money to provide disaster relief, and the most important thing is to have enough food so that all the victims will praise him. Only in this way, no matter what he does, people in the world will think positively. Even if he takes over the world, it is for the sake of the people.
Because. He is a selfless person. Although he thinks this word is ironic, he has to say it is very useful. Otherwise, why do all those literati love to seek fame and reputation?
"I will find a way to deal with the food issue. I will definitely not mess this up." Su Wenqing understood very well how important this matter was to the Ninth Prince.
If done well, not only will the Ninth Prince be released from prison immediately, but his reputation will also be raised to a higher level. By then, even if the emperor wants to take action against the Ninth Prince, he will have to consider public opinion.
But if they fail, all that will be in vain, and they will lose both the wife and the army.
"Feng Qingchen will start the free clinic tomorrow. You can go with her and persuade her to expand the clinic. Wherever we give out porridge, there must be a free clinic for her. As for the problem of grain transportation, if you can't solve it, go ask Feng Qingchen. She can come up with a way to use disaster relief to build momentum, and of course she can solve the problem of grain transportation."
The Ninth Prince pointed out a few places on the paper. These places were the hardest hit areas and also important military areas. "These places must be taken down. Don't make too much trouble in the imperial city. Just cooperate with Feng Qingchen's free clinic and focus on taking down these places."
This time the plan was successful, and nearly half of the cities in the northwest would hear his name, and the people there would also benefit from his grace.
"I understand. I will arrange for someone to do it." The waiter and the shopkeeper of the Su family shop can go out together.
The Ninth Prince carefully read Su Wenqing's statement. Su Wenqing had considered it very carefully, so he didn't need to say anything more. The Ninth Prince handed the statement back to Su Wenqing and said, "Just do as it says. When you meet Feng Qingchen tomorrow, use this matter to test Wang Jinling."
"You want to cooperate with the Wang family?" Su Wenqing understood what the Ninth Uncle meant, but it was precisely because he understood that he was puzzled.
The Wang family never participates in the fight for the throne.
The Ninth Prince nodded and said, "The Wang family wouldn't do that before, but it's hard to say now. The Wang family is in a situation where they either advance or retreat. Wang Jinling looks gentle, but he is a ruthless person. He might be willing to take a chance for the Wang family." Even if they lose, the Wang family won't suffer a big loss. With Wang Jinling's caution, he will never let anyone catch him.
"If we are to cooperate with an aristocratic family, wouldn't it be better to choose the Cui family? The Cui family has always been loyal to the previous dynasty. For the sake of the previous dynasty, they ignored the requests of the four emperors and retired from the world."
Su Wenqing had no good feelings towards aristocratic families. They controlled too many resources, leaving people from humble backgrounds with no chance at all.
“Cui family? Humph… The Cui family’s loyalty to the previous dynasty does not mean they will be loyal to me. The Cui family will support the bloodline of the previous dynasty to seize the throne, but that person is not me.” The Ninth Prince had never considered including the Cui family in the scope of cooperation.
Compared with the Cui family, he is more optimistic about the Wang family and the Yun family.
The Wang family needs a breakthrough, and the Yun family needs an opportunity to get rid of the name of merchants.
It has to be said that Feng Qingchen is his lucky star. Without Feng Qingchen, it would not have been so easy for him to get in touch with Wang Jinling and get support from Xiling Tianyu.
"You mean, there are other members of the Lan royal family who survived, and the Cui family is loyal to that person?" Su Wenqing's eyes suddenly widened.
If this is true, their situation would be very bad, as they would be surrounded by enemies on all sides.
"If I can survive, of course there are others who can survive. The emperors of the four countries want to massacre the entire Lan royal family, but this is impossible." Of course, this was just his suspicion.
Whether or not there are other members of the Lan royal family who survived has nothing to do with him. If the Cui family wants to emerge, let them emerge. It will create more chaos on this continent so that he can take the opportunity to do what he should do.
"That's true. If there are other members of the royal family of the Lan family, the Cui family will not only not help us, but may even massacre us." The power struggles over the past few years have made Su Wenqing understand that for the sake of that chair, those people would be willing to kill not only their blood relatives, but even their own son.
"No matter if there are other members of the Lan family alive or not, the Cui family cannot use them anyway." He is just the son of a princess of the previous dynasty. The Cui family will never stand by him. After all, he is not a direct descendant of the Lan family.
"I understand. I will never let the Cui family know about this." Su Wenqing had a serious look on his face, with an unprecedented solemnity in his eyes.
Jiuqing did not explain it clearly, but he understood that the Cui family was most likely to have a real member of the royal family of the Lan clan, otherwise the Cui family would not have come into being.
What does it mean to be born? It means to fight for the rights of this continent. Judging from the attitude of the Cui family, they went against the Emperor of Dongling as soon as they were born, and it was clear that they did not rely on the imperial power.
Not relying on the imperial power means that they have to establish their own rights. It seems that they need to speed up their actions, otherwise all their efforts will be in vain.
"It's all right with the Cui family as usual. We should be more cautious so as not to alert the enemy." The Ninth Prince knew that the Cui family was playing a big game. If Feng Qingchen hadn't accidentally cured Cui Haoting's illness and offered a strange condition, he wouldn't have known when he would discover the Cui family's conspiracy.
Feng Qingchen, that stupid woman, seemed to be born with political skills. Some seemingly inadvertent things, when you think about it carefully, you will find that they all have unexpected gains.
