Princess Agent: The Sweet Country Girl's Way to Glory - Chapter 394
Chapter 394 Drama Couple
Everyone was shocked. They didn’t expect Qi Chengfeng to actually come!
Qi Delong’s face turned pale, and a hidden current surged in his heart. Today, he had clearly sent people to wait for him in the wind! Now, it was clear that Qi Chengfeng hadn’t waited for him! Moreover, he had come out on his own! That’s why he rushed over!
“What a coincidence, the Emperor is also here.” Qi Chengfeng chuckled and said, “Didn’t the Emperor invite his younger brother to discuss the matter of refugees?”
“Your Highness, didn’t the Emperor tell you? He wants to sell the land to save the refugees.” Su Wanwan smiled and walked over to hug Qi Chengfeng’s arm.
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Qi Chengfeng scolded Su Wanwan. He was extremely impolite to her, and his expression was very serious. He even shook off Su Wanwan’s hand and said, “How could the Emperor sell land! Don’t you know that selling land without permission is a big crime? Did you mention it after all the ministers discussed it? Your nonsense will make the Emperor’s heart freeze!”
“…”
At this moment, these words surprised everyone, as if the sale of flats really shouldn’t have happened. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that there was indeed such a law in the Xia Dynasty.
Qi Chengfeng looked at the stunned crowd and said, “Everyone, you guys are laughing. You’re not sensible.”
Turning around, Qi Chengfeng shouted at Su Wanwan, “Did you know that you were wrong?”
“I…” Su Wanwan took out the handkerchief that had been soaked in ginger water and wiped her tears. Her tears fell out, and her face was filled with grievance.
Suddenly, everyone felt some sympathy for Su Wanwan, but they agreed with what Su Wanwan had said before.
Su Wanwan turned her head and looked at Qi Delong as if she could not bear to die. “Your Majesty, let alone the land sale, this IOU should be repaid, right? I will give you a 50% discount today. You only need to return half of it! The rest of the money is for me to donate to the refugees!”
The smile on Qi Delong’s face was stiff as he thought to himself, “Even so, he is still not up!”
Qi Delong said coldly, “This matter … Let’s discuss it again. Today, I’m tired. Let’s go back first.”
Su Wanwan looked at everyone present and said, “Your Majesty must have taken it to heart. Everyone, if you have any promissory notes, hurry up and ask!”
“…”
Hearing this, Qi Delong almost tripped over something and almost fell.
As soon as Su Wanwan finished her sentence, someone immediately chased after her and said, “Your Majesty! Although this official did not bring out the IOU today, the former emperor did indeed borrow 20,000 taels of silver from his fellow officials!”
Another official said, “Your Majesty! The previous emperor and I borrowed 10,000 taels of silver!”
“…”
I didn’t expect the royal family to be so poor! I also need to borrow 10,000 to 20,000 taels!
Everyone looked at each other. Su Wanwan said, “Everyone, let alone the royal family, they are really in debt! However, our Zhao Clan has helped with several plagues of locusts, floods and droughts. They paid no less than 600,000 taels of silver!”
Hearing this, everyone felt that the royal family was extremely incompetent. Everyone’s mood became even more depressed. The royal family was clearly on their own land, but they wanted to use the name of selling land to relieve the disaster. In the future, there would be a disaster. Was the land in the Xia Dynasty bought by the wealthy and then the land in the Xia Dynasty gradually shrinking?
Everyone felt that Qi Delong was extremely unreliable. Thinking back to the Second Prince’s reputation among the people, they felt even more disgusted.
Qi Chengfeng looked at Su Wanwan. Their gazes intertwined as if they were connected. Su Wanwan turned away and Qi Chengfeng scolded, “Why did you make the Emperor unhappy?” Don’t you know that the Emperor has been thinking of helping the refugees solve their problems recently? Yesterday, he had been thinking about adding a few more buckets of water to the refugees! Don’t cause any trouble, hurry up and return to this prince’s mansion! ”
Qi Chengfeng’s words could be said to be a slap in the face, making Qi Delong really useless!
Su Wanwan said angrily, “Qi Chengfeng! What do you mean? Do you think that I am willing to see what is happening today? The territory of our Xia Dynasty is not complete without urging Your Majesty! Refugees are displaced, can our country be settled?”
“Shut up!” Qi Chengfeng scolded again. The two of them looked like they were quarreling. Everyone sympathized with Su Wanwan and advised, “Prince Lian, the princess was right just now. She was also very diligent.”
“That’s right! You shouldn’t have said anything about her! What she wants in her heart is refugees! What she wants is the stability of the country!”
“…”
Su Wan turned around and ignored Qi Chengfeng. He said to everyone, “I have already thought of how to deal with this matter. However, the Zhao Clan has received too much aid from the royal family and indeed does not have much money in the family. I heard that the Crown Prince of Yan Kingdom is willing to help. Tomorrow, he and I will pay some money to ask someone to build a place at the city gate to save them. You don’t have to worry about the refugees in the capital.”
As she spoke, Su Wanwan actually cried. She covered her face and ran to the carriage outside. The crowd automatically let a path come.
“Wait for me!” Qi Chengfeng immediately chased after him. As soon as the two of them sat on the carriage, they suddenly looked at each other and smiled. Su Wanwan reached out to pinch Qi Chengfeng’s nose and whispered, “Husband did really well today!”
“My wife is not bad either.” As Qi Chengfeng spoke, his face suddenly enlarged in front of Su Wanwan and he kissed her.
The scenery in the carriage was very beautiful.
After a long time, Su Wanwan held Qi Chengfeng’s face up, her eyes still a little blurry. She said, “Husband, tell me, are all the people on the list you got ready?”
“Ready.” Qi Chengfeng said with a smile on his face.
At this moment, Qi Delong didn’t know that he had been plotted by his husband and wife. He only wanted to hurry back to the palace. When he arrived at the palace gate, he was suddenly surrounded by a group of people. “Your Majesty, return the money! When are you going to return the money from our family?”
“Yes! We have receipts! You can’t go back on your word!”
“…”
The pedestrians outside the palace gates were stunned when they saw this. The crowd was very disappointed when news of the palace gates was spread again today. Qi Delong felt that the throne was more and more unstable, but he couldn’t think of any good way to hold his position.
After pondering for a night, he was unable to sleep all night until an eunuch reminded him, “Your Majesty, Prince Lian and Princess Lian are not good people. You have to get rid of them!”
Hearing this, Qi Delong suddenly came to his senses. His exhausted face was dyed with a smile and he immediately said, “Go pass it on to the Qing of the Dali Temple!”
“Yes!”
Qi Chengfeng and Su Wanwan woke up early in the morning. The two of them went to eat. Suddenly, the sound of weapons knocking on each other came from outside the door.
“Our prince is not a criminal! Why should we arrest him?”
“He killed the Emperor. We’re here to capture him! If you stop him, kill him!”
“…”
Su Wanwan and Qi Chengfeng exchanged glances and felt that something was wrong.
The two of them seemed to have yet to figure out how to expose Qi Delong’s murder of Qi Sheng. On the contrary, Qi Delong had actually arranged for their evidence to be returned first!
This was good!
