Poor Family

"What did you say? There are pirates growing food and medicinal materials in the South China Sea islands?"

Qianqing Palace, South China Sea Navy Governor An Jianzhong also bowed his body to report the situation in the South China Sea to the emperor.

After hearing this, the emperor was shocked and got up and paced back and forth: "What do those pirates want to do? No, are those people still pirates?"

An Jianzhong thought about it and said: "The few relatively large pirate forces mostly used the banner of pirates, but they didn't do anything like burning, killing or looting. Otherwise, the South China Sea Navy would not allow them to grow and develop."

The emperor looked at An Jianzhong with dissatisfaction: "You have the nerve to say this. As the governor of the South China Sea Navy, you don't know anything about so many pirates under your nose!"

When An Jianzhong heard this, he didn't dare to defend himself, so he quickly knelt down and admitted his mistake: "Your Majesty, this subject is guilty, please punish me."

The emperor looked at An Jianzhong coldly, knowing that he still needs to use this person, suppressed his dissatisfaction, and sat back on the imperial chair: "Are those pirate forces developing independently, or are they colluding with each other?"

An Jianzhong hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor, those pirates should not have colluded together."

The emperor was angry again, and said sharply: "What should you mean? Don't you even know if they are in collusion?"

An Jianzhong was terrified: "Back to the emperor, there is no collusion, but there should be backers behind those pirate forces."

Hearing this, the emperor's eyes suddenly became dangerous: "Is there a backer behind the pirates?"

An Jianzhong: "Whether it is food or medicinal materials, they must be sold. How to sell and where to sell must require channels."

"Even the Sea Turtle Gang, I don't think it's easy. When I led the navy to the island, the pirates of the Sea Turtle Gang reacted very quickly, quite a bit."

The emperor's face was gloomy: "There is something?"

A lot of sweat dripped from An Jianzhong's forehead, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It's a bit like an army!"

The emperor was really shocked: "Army?"

Feeling the coldness in the emperor's tone, An Jianzhong, who was kneeling on the ground, almost had his entire body lying on the ground.

There was a moment of silence in the hall, and suddenly the emperor's laughter resounded.

"Okay, the South China Sea is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!"

An Jianzhong was afraid of angering the emperor again, so he didn't dare to say a word at this moment.

Afterwards, the emperor ignored him, but asked Eunuch Liu to spread out the territory map of Great Chu, and carefully looked at the situation in the South China Sea.

"Are there many islands in the South China Sea?"

An Jianzhong: "There are not many big islands, but there are quite a few small islands." After a pause, "The islands are far apart. If you don't know the location of the islands in advance, it is difficult for the navy to find them."

The emperor said in a deep voice, "Can you catch all the other pirates in the South China Sea?"

An Jianzhong's head trembled, and he said with a wry smile: "Going back to the emperor, I'm afraid it will be difficult. Besides, the owners of some islands are not all pirates, and they still listen to the court."

"Affected by the disaster in the past few years, the South China Sea was full of refugees. Local officials could not resettle them. Some island owners took the initiative to share their worries and took in many refugees."

The emperor laughed angrily: "Fenyou? You call this Fenyou? They are robbing people, robbing free labor!" Having said this, he got up and paced back and forth angrily.

The emperor was surprised to find that the imperial court's control over the waters of the South China Sea was really too low.

The islands in the South China Sea are almost becoming secret bases for pirates and people with ulterior motives.

This situation must not continue, otherwise, suddenly a rebel army will appear one day, and the court will not know what is going on!

The emperor immediately sent someone to summon the six ministers and began to discuss how to manage the waters of the South China Sea.

"What?"

"The imperial court wants to issue an order to the pirates in the South China Sea and the owners of the islands?"

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, when Chu Yao returned home to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, when he went back to Rong'an Yuan to change clothes, he chatted with Shi Fuxin about some things that happened in the court hall recently.

Chu Yao looked at Shi Fuxin: "Why do you react so strongly?"

Shi Fuxin avoided Chu Yao's gaze: "Did I react too much? I was just a little surprised."

Chu Yao: "Why are you surprised?"

Shi Fuxin looked at Chu Yao: "No reason, just surprised."

Chu Yao withdrew his gaze, and drank tea slowly: "The death of the Sixth Prince involved the Sea Turtle Gang, and the elimination of the Sea Turtle Gang led to Zhao'an, the islands of the South China Sea."

Saying that, she looked at Shi Fuxin, "Tell me, what will be involved in the future?"

Shi Fuxin's expression was indifferent: "How do I know?"

Chu Yao: "I heard that there are masters behind the forces in the South China Sea. The imperial court ordered that they dig out all these people."

Shi Fuxin: "The emperor's move is really powerful."

Chu Yao glanced at her, and suddenly said: "Isn't your business already going to the South China Sea?"

Shi Fuxin looked over and said with a smile, "Guess?"

Seeing her reaction, Chu Yao couldn't figure it out.

Rationally, he felt that Shi Liu's hand should not be able to reach the South China Sea. First, she should not have so many people. Second, she is in the capital and has already opened hundreds of confidantes, so she should not have the energy to do other things. that's it.

However, another voice in his heart told him that Shiliu was not an ordinary person and could not be judged by ordinary people. It seemed normal for her to do outrageous things.

A few days after the Dragon Boat Festival, Shi Fuxin received a letter from Fei Ge from Master Xiang.

Shi Fuxin looked at the note in her hand, there were only a few words on the note: The imperial court ordered An, do you accept it?

If you don't accept it, you will definitely be punished by the court; if you accept it, Baicaotang will be completely exposed to the public.

Once Baicaotang is exposed, how long can Shennongtang hide?

After thinking again and again, Shi Fuxin picked up a pen and wrote the word 'accept' on a piece of paper.

After tying the note to the pigeon's leg and letting it fly, Shi Fuxin was silent for a moment, got up and went back to Shifu.

In Uncle Wuchang's mansion, Jin Yue'e knew that Shi Fuxin was back, and quickly ordered the servant girl to serve Shi Fuxin's favorite tea, she was a little surprised when she didn't see anyone after waiting for a while.

"Where is Miss Six?"

"Miss Six is ​​going to see the old lady."

Jin Yue'e was very surprised when she heard that, usually when her daughter came back, she would be the first to see her, and then went to visit Mrs. Shi with her.

"Go to the old lady's side as soon as you come back. Is there something wrong?"

In Yixiang Hall, Mrs. Shi smiled and chatted with Shi Fuxin about homework, but she didn't take the initiative to ask Shi Fuxin why she came back.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Shi Fuxin went straight to the point: "Mistress, the mansion may be affected for a while."

Madam Shi's eyelids twitched: "What effect?"

Shi Fuxin: "I am the master of the First Prince. The reason why not many people have mentioned this matter is that the First Prince deliberately alienates me, and the second is that I am worthless and not worthy of other people's attention."

Mrs. Shi looked at her sixth granddaughter: "Could it be that someone wants to use Shi Fuxin, who is the eldest prince, to cause trouble?"

Shi Fuxin nodded: "Grandmother may be required to restrain the family members in a certain period of time. Once some things I do are exposed, my identity as the eldest prince master will become very important. At that time, the mansion will definitely be affected. .”

Madam Shi's heart tightened: "What did you do?"

Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "Grandmother, don't worry, it's not something outrageous, and the matter may not be exposed, I'm just telling you now, in case it really happens, the house is not prepared."

Mrs. Shi was silent for a moment: "Are you optimistic about the First Prince?"

Shi Fuxin: "What I do actually has nothing to do with the First Prince, it's all what I want to do, but I'm really the First Prince's master, grandmother, and I've entered the game."

Mrs. Shi was silent: "You are a successful man, I will be optimistic about this side of the house, but there is one thing I still want to tell you, you are not alone, there is a big family behind you, think twice before doing anything. "

Shi Fuxin stood up and blessed herself: "Granddaughter understands."

The grandfather and grandson talked for a while, and Shi Fuxin left.

When the old lady looked at the back of her granddaughter leaving, there were worries and expectations in her eyes.

It is impossible to live in the capital without taking any risks. It is lucky to have an heir who can pull the family back together. I hope that sister Xin didn't escort anyone!
