In many places in the south, the grains dried up and died before they could be planted. It can be said that there was no harvest. Although the drought was not obvious in the north, it was also affected to varying degrees. Fortunately, local officials did a good job and dug canals to divert water, which saved the seedlings.
, there was a harvest in autumn, but the harvest was really pitiful.
Under such circumstances, Prince Ning also sold his country's grain to Lin Yixuan at a low price, giving him the opportunity to secretly transport so much grain back to Dacheng. What his motives were, however, is obvious.
Fortunately, the Red Gang trained by Ouyang Chen was not a fuel-efficient lamp. It was soon discovered that Lin Yixuan was using waterways to transport food from Ouyang River Wharf to Dacheng's territory. Finally, when he was about to leave the country, he was killed by the Red Gang.
The people sent the information back to the Bixin Palace. Emperor Ouyang Chen made a prompt decision and avoided this tragic loss. He also arrested the number one rat and the craftsman Lin Yixuan.
When everyone was locked up with long shackles and thrown into the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, Lin Rouer suddenly thought of something. What Ouyang Chen said that night was not a threat at all. He had already found out Ouyang Xing
The problem with Lin Yixuan is why it is like this.
But Lin Rou'er couldn't figure out why her brother would do this. The last incident of cheating had already caused quite a stir, and many of Da Cheng's merchants had turned back, fearing that something similar would happen again.[
Lin Rouer has always believed that Lin Yixuan came here to do legitimate business, so she did not doubt his motives. But this time the evidence was irrefutable, as the grain-carrying boats that were intercepted on the river showed this, so she had no choice but to disbelieve him.
But as a blood relative, how could she sit back and watch him do nothing? Even though she was in jail, her desire to save the only son of the Lin family became stronger and stronger.
Therefore, before being sent to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, Lin Rou'er said to Luan Xiaoqing extremely seriously: "Prime Minister Luan, for the sake of my saving your life two years ago, please help me bring the message to the emperor.
, I want to talk to him alone, the sooner the better."
Ouyang Xing, who was like a pile of mud on the side, also seemed to see hope, nodded fiercely and said: "Yes, I also want to see the emperor, and I want to tell him that this is not the case. I have never betrayed the country and committed adultery, deliberately stealing food.
Ship it overseas so adults can take advantage of it.”
Luan Xiaoqing was helpless in response to Ouyang Xing's defense. He, Prince Ning, was indeed incompetent. It was not impossible that someone took advantage of his loopholes and took advantage of his position to commit corruption and pervert the law.
The reason why the emperor wanted to surround the palace with heavy troops and then capture him was just to scare the monkeys and show those people that even Prince Ning might be imprisoned. Who else would the emperor not dare to touch?
As for Princess Lin Rouer's request, Luan Xiaoqing couldn't refuse. As long as he thought that she almost saved him in exchange for him, he had to express his gratitude to her from the bottom of his heart.
Her request was not too much, it was just a message to the emperor. As for whether he would see her or not, that was another matter, and it was not something he could foresee, so he readily agreed.
After talking to Luan Xiaoqing, who was the imperial envoy, Ning Wang Ouyang Xing, Princess Lin Rouer and hundreds of servants in the palace were all taken into the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.
