Drought

"Then my subordinate will do it now."

Although I don’t know what Gao Yanming did, but if Lu Yaoyao can be so hated and willing to exterminate his clan, what else is there to say?

He has also disliked the Gao family for a long time, so he just wants to kill them.

Just when Gu Jian stood up and was about to walk out, Lu Yaoyao called out to him.

"Okay, I'm just talking, you sit down."

Gu Jian was startled and turned to look at Lu Yaoyao. The overwhelming hatred and murderous intention had disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared.

"The Manchus of the Gao family are going to die, but we are not the main ones. We are just finishing the fight."

Although she hated him, she couldn't kill him no matter how many people there were.

However, just because she doesn't want to kill someone herself doesn't mean she can't kill someone with a borrowed knife.

"This drought is an opportunity."

"Why do you think I asked Lao Kang to buy grain on a large scale?"

Gu Jian frowned and began to think deeply. After a while, he finally said, "Do you want to make the situation worse so that there will be no food to buy around the capital?"

"yes."

Lu Yaoyao nodded.

She was not short of food, so why did she buy it? It was not to resell, but to aggravate the situation.

If the number of disaster victims is increased, the people will not be able to buy food even if they have money, and there will inevitably be great turmoil, and the officials in the court will not be able to hide it even if they want to.

When Emperor Hongwen investigates, the gentry's wanton purchase of grain will be exposed.

There was a severe drought in the world and food was scarce. The nobles were still purchasing food in such a big way. They wanted to enrich the country but it was difficult for them to make money. How could Emperor Hongwen not be angry?

The nobles stayed away from the court at all, and Emperor Hongwen could not take action. What about Gao Yanming?

"Although we won't kill the Gao clan, I still have some things to ask you to do."

More than an hour later, Gu Jian left the Xiangjun Mansion.

When he returned to the farm, he immediately ordered two hundred people, and that night went south to the ancestral land of the Gao family.

The remaining people were also arranged by Lao Kang on the farm in the name of workers.

"Yao Yao, are all the news you told Qiu Shuang yesterday true?"

The next day, just as Lu Yaoyao was preparing to have breakfast, Mr. Lu and brothers Lu Xiu came.

As soon as he sat down, the old man asked quickly, looking very anxious.

"It's true, but don't worry, grandpa, the Lu family is safe there. However, this matter is not a big deal. Our return to Jiangdong may be delayed."

"It doesn't matter if we go back later. Grandpa is just worried that the Lu family is not safe there."

"How about we let them go to Beijing first and then go back together when the time is up?"

The Lu family is not very prosperous. There are only more than a hundred people in the whole family.

Most of them are branches of the Lu family. Mr. Lu is the head of the Lu family and the patriarch of the Lu family.

Now there is chaos in Jiangdong, and the Lu family has suffered an attack by rogue bandits. If the famine is more serious, there will be more and more refugees, and there will also be more rogue bandits.

You can escape once, but what about next time?

He couldn't just think that his direct descendants were all in the capital and ignore the Lu family in Jiangdong.

"Grandpa, I understand your worries, but at this time, it is better to be still than to move."

"It's a long way from Jiangdong to Beijing. We don't know how many victims there are along the way. Going to Beijing rashly will only put them in more danger."

"How about this? You write a handwritten letter and I'll have my people send it to Jiangdong quickly. Let the Lu family members gather together first and stick to the door during this period."

Mr. Lu thought for a moment and nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, I'll write now."

Not long after, Qiu Yu took the handwritten letter and went outside the city. On the same day, Lao Kang arranged for someone to go to Jiangdong.

"Brother, I hate it, I hate it."

"It's all that little bitch. If it weren't for her, how could I have become like this? You must avenge me, kill her, kill her."

After more than ten days of treatment, Gao, who was on the verge of entering hell, finally came back to life.

However, the situation was not good. The toxins from Qiri Fenxin Powder had severely damaged her vitality. Although she was revived, her body and bones were much weaker than before.

In the doctor's words, if she takes good tonics, she might be able to live for another three to five years, otherwise she will run out of steam in a year and a half at most.

Gao Yanming is such a biological sister, so naturally it is impossible for her to continue to let her live outside.

He changed his attitude again. Even if Mrs. Han hated Gao's sister-in-law, she could only bow her head helplessly.

In addition, she is also a dying person who will not live long.

There is no need to spoil the relationship between husband and wife because of her.

Looking at his sister who was lying on the bed with a pale and weak face, gnashing her teeth and full of hatred, Gao Yanming also looked very ugly.

Indeed, everything has been going wrong for them since Lu Yaoyao returned to Beijing.

First it was Xu Zhao and his daughter, and later even he was punished with a ban. He had been an official for many years, and this was the first time he was punished with a ban.

Now my sister has become like this again. Although I haven't found out who caused the move, in the final analysis, these things are still because Lu Yaoyao returned to Beijing.

"Little sister, don't think so much now, take good care of yourself, and leave the bitch's affairs to your elder brother."

Does Gao Yanming not want to touch Lu Yaoyao?

Of course he wanted to, but he couldn't move.

In the past two years, he had noticed His Majesty's attitude, and although he could not be said to be indifferent to him, he was quite critical of him.

This attitude became even more obvious from the moment Lu Yaoyao presented sweet potatoes.

At this moment, sweet potatoes and potatoes are being promoted, and Lu Yaoyao is in the limelight as a contributor.

Didn’t you see that Uncle Yiyong and the second prince were dealt with earlier?

It was not a good time to take action against Lu Yaoyao at this time. It could almost be said that as long as he took action, Emperor Hongwen would be even more dissatisfied with him.

They may even take this opportunity to knock him down directly.

It is precisely because of this that he has not taken any action. Otherwise, given his character and strength, how could there be no movement at all?

It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t and don’t dare.

"The Lu family, that bitch cares about the Lu family the most, brother, you can't let them go."

"Brother knows, you should have a good rest first and don't worry about these things."

Gao Yanming then comforted him a few more words before leaving.

When I returned to the study, the housekeeper came to report that there was someone outside who wanted to see me.

"Sir, something big has happened."

Come, let me tell you about the drought.

Not only is the situation in the south, it is even more serious in the north. In some places, it can be said that the situation has reached the point where the land is thousands of miles away.

"oh?"

Gao Yanming's eyes sparkled, he was really dozing off and hit the pillow.

"Tell me more about it?"

The person who came here gave a detailed report on the results of the investigation and the recent actions of the aristocratic families from all over the world.

"Well, now that we know the truth, please step back."
