Chapter 27 Goodbye Hai Dafu

As the saying goes, loyalty is not absolute, that is absolute disloyalty.

For the pure ministers around the emperor, once they have an affair with a foreign minister, the consequences can be imagined.

"Ah."

Lin Chen looked at Zhao Kuangyin's confident departure and smiled lightly.

Zhao Kuangyin might not have thought of it.

My identity is so complicated that I can only cling to the emperor's thigh at the moment.

Lin Chen left the palace in front of everyone, but changed his clothes and entered the palace where outsiders could not see him.

With the Prince's Palace Young Attendant's token, he went all the way to the Prince's Palace.

What Lin Chen didn't expect was that someone stopped him on the road.

It’s none other than Hai Dafu!

"Xiao Linzi, where have you been in the past few days?" Hai Dafu's gloomy voice sounded.

If Lin Chen were still a first-rate warrior, he would probably be scared to death by the opponent's elusiveness.

But now Lin Chen has actually discovered the other party a long time ago.

Lin Chen, who pretended to be startled, had internal energy surging in his body and was always on guard.

"Chief Hai, you still don't make any sound when you walk."

Lin Chen said with a smiley voice, and his attitude was not very friendly.

He did this naturally to give Hai Dafu an illusion.

Let Hai Dafu believe that Lin Chen is just a first-class warrior and he can easily handle it.

If the two of them fall out at that time, Lin Chen can catch them by surprise.

Hai Dafu saw Lin Chen's performance and felt very satisfied.

"Xiao Linzi, you haven't answered what I said yet."

Hai Dafu obviously wanted to know where Lin Chen had been during this time.

"In the Prince's Mansion, the Shangguan female history..."

Lin Chen, who didn't finish his words, smiled like a man.

When Hai Dafu saw this, his face darkened.

He naturally understood what Lin Chen did with Shangguan Wan'er in the Prince's Mansion.

"Xiao Linzi, this word for sex is like a knife to the head, especially Shangguan Wan'er's physique that breaks the bones and sucks out the marrow."

Hai Dafu said in a profound tone.

indeed.

If it weren't for Yu Yang's mental skills, ordinary men wouldn't even have the chance to have a romantic kiss with Shangguan Wan'er.

"Now I don't have to worry about it, Chief Hai."

Lin Chen naturally had to show his displeasure.

When Hai Dafu saw this, he didn't say anything and ignored the matter.

He just told Lin Chen in a slightly threatening tone: "Xiao Linzi, don't forget our original deal!"

"Tonight, you go to the Queen Mother!"

Seeing that there was a hint of doubt in Hai Dafu's tone, Lin Chen had no choice but to nod his head and try to see if he could find out the whereabouts of the Forty-Two Chapters from the True Queen Mother.

Originally, today was the 15th full moon.

I still wanted to try the taste of plum blossoms under the moon with Shangguan Wan'er, but I had to change the time.

Immediately, Lin Chen, who escaped from Hai Dafu's place, went all the way to the political cabinet of the Prince's Mansion.

Shangguan Wan'er is sitting on her knees in palace attire. She looks cold and cool, but she can't help but be intoxicated by it.

It looks like a jar of August plum wine, I have to try it.

"You're here." Shangguan Wan'er smiled slightly and looked up at Lin Chen.

This look makes her look like a beauty waiting to meet her lover.

Lin Chen immediately threw this idea away.

joke.

Shangguan Wan'er doesn't need to be treated like an ordinary woman.

This period of getting along with each other was not entirely fruitless.

At least Lin Chen could act more casual when he was alone with Shangguan Wan'er.

】

There is no need to call her "adult" or "Shangguan Nvshi".

"This is……?"

Lin Chen looked at the documents in front of Shangguan Wan'er.

This is a report sent by officials from various places in Gyeonggi Province on the situation of the victims.

The more he looked at it, the more frightened Lin Chen became.

The sources of information he currently has access to are limited to those around the capital.

But I didn’t expect that the situation in various prefectures and counties in Gyeonggi Province would be so serious.

This flood was caused by a five-day heavy rain!

As a result, ditches around Gyeonggi Province swelled and fields were flooded.

County magistrates from all over the country are not money-hungry at all. They are also mobilizing county officials to clear ditches and rush to allocate grain seeds, hoping to harvest subsistence rations before winter comes.

This is a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster!

But such emergency measures cannot suppress the impact of the flood.

There are hundreds of thousands of disaster victims in urgent need of food rations to survive the winter.

"Nowadays, a large amount of grain has been mobilized from Jiangnan and other places to Beijing, but it is only a drop in the bucket."

Shangguan Wan'er, who was rubbing her brows with her jade fingers, had a hint of exhaustion in her tone.

"Aren't there still three major official warehouses to store grain?" Lin Chen was surprised.

"Guancang?"

Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Shangguan Wan'er's eyes flashed with helplessness.

"A few days ago, I ordered people to inspect the grain storage in the three major official warehouses. The south warehouse caught fire at midnight last night, and the north warehouse was robbed by bandits. Only 20% of the grain was left in the warehouse."

"The warden of the West Dacang Cangcang is a thief who sells 400,000 dan to store grain. He has been suppressed by me for questioning and will be executed by Queen Qiu."

Lin Chen didn't know what to say for a moment.

Things like fire dragons burning down warehouses seem to have happened throughout the ages.

From this point of view, there is no hope for Guancang.

only.

In Beidacang, hundreds of thousands of stones of grain were robbed by bandits overnight. Isn't this excuse just fooling fools?

And this Nishi Okura.

Lin Chen didn't believe that a warehouse manager had the guts to sell 400,000 shi of official grain.

No wonder Lin Chen looked tired when he saw Shangguan Wan'er.

If he had been involved in these troubles, he would probably be so tired.

"How about handing the case of the theft of grain from Beidagang to your Wucheng Bingma Division?"

Shangguan Wan'er suddenly asked.

"Shouldn't this case be handed over to the Shenbu Yamen?" Lin Chen raised his eyebrows slightly.

You should know that the Shenbu Yamen has four famous detectives and a Zhuge Shenhou in charge.

"The four famous detectives are investigating a family-annihilation case in the Jianghu, and only Zhuge Shenhou is on duty, but this Shenhou..."

Shangguan Wan'er, who was hesitant to speak, sighed.

It seems that the other party is willing but not able to do it.

Lin Chen understood.

So the Wucheng Bingma Division was asked to cooperate with Zhuge Shenhou to handle the case?

"The lady ordered, and I dare not disobey." Lin Chen said jokingly.

But Shangguan Wan'er rolled her eyes at him when she heard it.

"Yes, I will order the imperial chef to prepare food tonight. Would Commander Lin do me the honor?"

Shangguan Wan'er seemed to have thought of something. Although her tone was cold, Lin Chen could read a different meaning from it.

It can be seen that Shangguan Wan'er was under a lot of pressure and needed to vent.

Lin Chen thought of something and could only shake his head and decline. He would make an appointment next time.

In the end, Lin Chen seemed to walk hurriedly, fearing that he would regret it if he was one step late.

Shangguan Wan'er was too good. Could the palace dress that was so thin that the blood vessels on the skin could be seen really be considered clothes?

Fortunately, Lin Chen remembered his agreement with Hai Dafu.

I have to go to the Queen Mother tonight.

If nothing else, the warm and voluptuous touch also made Lin Chen remember it vividly.
