  Chapter 55 Ruan Youqing Leads by Example

  Although Ruan Youqing only said a word lightly, but in other people's ears, it is impossible to help but think wrong.

  Some people are already guessing, is it because Rong Yan really wants to embezzle the silver taels?

  After all... She brought up this matter, so the donated silver would naturally go through her hands. So... if she really wanted to withhold some... she must have been ignorant of it!

  Rong Yan naturally felt the changes in other people's expressions towards her. She immediately became flustered when she was still relaxed just now, and when she looked at Ruan Youqing, her eyes were filled with resentment.

   "Sister Rong~Youqing is thinking of you." Ruan Youqing looked back a little aggrieved.

"I... I will definitely make sure that every link is meticulous. When the time comes, I will specially find someone to supervise, or it is okay to ask my father to go to Jingbian personally." Rong Yan finished speaking in one breath, afraid of others Do not suspect her of ulterior motives. Although she did have some other intentions in proposing this matter this time, but stealing the silver taels is really wronging her!

  Ruan Youqing smiled and said: "Sister Rong... is too naive. Do you think that even if Master Rong went to Jingbian himself, those despicable people would not be corrupt and pervert the law?"

   "What do you mean!" Rong Yan raised her eyebrows.

Seeing that the other party still didn't understand, Ruan Youqing continued patiently: "Could it be that elder sister Rong is sure that the grain merchants in or near Jingbian won't sit on the ground and raise prices? Or, elder sister can be sure that the local officials and businessmen won't collude early on. ...by deceiving the superior and the inferior, and secretly withholding the disaster relief money..."

  Everyone present was a little stunned, and some smart ones were already frowning and thinking about the pros and cons.

  Indeed, the women who have lived in the back house for a long time have no ability to guarantee that all the donated silver can be purchased as food and donated to the victims in good condition.

  Even... the queen began to feel uneasy.

  She... She shouldn't have agreed to Rong Yan so easily! I thought it was a matter of fame and fortune, but there are so many devious ways in it!

  Thinking that the other party threatened her for something, the queen was already very unhappy when she looked at Rong Yan.

  Mu Fei could not help laughing when he saw everyone suddenly realized, "Although my family Youqing can't go to the battlefield with our Ruan family to kill the enemy, but he really cares about the people."

  Ruan Youqing blushed with shame after being praised so unceremoniously by her mother.

  Mu Fei stood up and continued:

"Even food and war horses, if we don't strictly control every link, once a link is neglected, those who are indulged by greed... will see the needle, whether it is a businessman or some officials, they are cunning very."

   "You have one corrupt official at a time. Could it be that all the officials are not good people? Or do you think our emperor..." Before he finished speaking, everyone present understood what Mrs. Liu had left to say.

   What Mrs. Liu meant was that they felt that the emperor was incompetent.

After being splashed with such dirty water, Mu Fei hooked the corners of her lips in disdain: "I've told you so much, how can someone arrange the emperor? On the contrary, Mrs. Liu, you... that's right! You are the Minister of the Ministry of Officials Madame, the Ministry of Officials...can be in charge of the appointment and dismissal of some official titles...Could it be..."

  「You...don’t talk nonsense!」

"Tsk! I'm not talking nonsense, you can go to the emperor with me and talk about it. Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot that you and I have different identities. The one who is qualified to debate with me in front of the emperor is your husband. After Mu Fei finished speaking, she drank a cup of tea with a smile.

  Ruan Youqing and Ruan Youning looked at their mother in a daze, how they used their three-inch tongues to say that some people with ulterior motives almost fainted in anger.

   Mrs. Liu is obviously the one who is about to faint from anger.

  Ruan Youqing and Ruan Youning glanced at each other, covering their lips and snickering tacitly.

  The queen saw that the scene was a little out of control, she smiled very far-fetchedly and patted the table, and then said:

   "Since this is the case, what advice does Miss Ruan have? After all... Yan'er mentioned this matter, we must not stop because of difficulties."

  Seeing that the queen still intends to speak for Rong Yan, Ruan Youqing was alert, but the expression on her face was still shy:

"Going back to the Empress, You Qing is not very talented and knowledgeable. I'm afraid I can't come up with any particularly good solutions. But... You Qing thinks this matter is not that troublesome... After all, the imperial court will definitely send designated officials to rescue the disaster. And we You can choose two or three people to go with you. Donating food directly or donating money is actually inappropriate. If you donate food directly, the journey is far away. Seeing that the weather is getting hotter, the food is in transit. It must be well preserved. If some grains are spoiled, it will be a waste of time. The direct donation of silver taels is not only because of fear that some local officials will embezzle it, but also because the local grain in Jingbian is scarce, and it is even impossible to buy it directly with silver taels. Can't buy it."

   "Money is not good, food is not good, what do you think is suitable!" Rong Yan said dissatisfiedly, at this time she was no longer willing to pretend to be a sister.

Ruan Youqing pursed her lips and smiled: "Sister Rong, don't worry, Xiaoqing hasn't finished talking yet? The imperial court will definitely make arrangements for disaster relief, and after we donate the silver taels, we can hand over the silver taels to the people around Jingbian The city opened storehouses to release grain.”

   "Heh, then how can you be sure that the cities around Jingbian won't raise the price of grain? Or...if they don't want to let it go?" Rong Yan pressed on every step of the way, but she knew how to throw the problem to her.

   It's just that Ruan Youqing hasn't spoken yet, but Mu Fei sneered and said: "Miss Rong thinks the court is too incompetent this time. People in the court exchange silver taels, how dare they guard the granary?"

  Rong Yan bit her lip and continued: "Then...who wants to go to the disaster area?"

  Ruan Youqing saw Rong Yan's pointed eyes, and said seriously: "Youqing is willing to go to Jingbian."

   "You... Sister Ruan is so delicate and frail, can you endure this difficult journey?"

  Ruan Youqing's eyes were slightly red, and he continued to speak: "Youqing... Youqing can't be a waste for the rest of your life. Even if you die on the way to disaster relief, then Youqing died well."

   "Sister Ruan's words are really touching! Since this is the case, then Sister Ruan should be careful all the way!" At the end of the speech, Rong Yan was already gnashing her teeth.

  She felt that Ruan Youqing wanted to retreat instead of advancing, and wanted others to stop her. That way... she won't have to go to the place where no grass grows, but she will also gain a good reputation!

  Since I want a good name! Then she, Rong Yan, will fulfill her, Ruan Youqing!

The queen was a bit complicated, and after the dark eyes flashed across her eyes, she feigned anger and said, "Yan'er, don't mess around, Youqing is weak, how can she stand this kind of bumps. This matter... still needs to be decided by Mu Fei. Mu Fei, you have to persuade me..."

  Before he finished speaking, Mu Fei clasped his hands together and opened his mouth:

"Thank you, Empress Empress, for your kindness. However, my Xiaoyouqing's affairs are still up to her to decide. If she is determined to go, Mu Fei will not stop her. The children of our Ruan family will not be forced to stop because of difficulties and obstacles. Seek refuge under the wings of elders."

  Ruan Youqing felt warm in his heart.

  The empress looked a little embarrassed, and when she was thinking about what to say, she spoke again in a clear voice: "Empress, Deyin is also willing to go to Jingbian with Miss Ruan."

   Not only other people, but Ruan Youqing also looked over in surprise at this time.

  This person... is Xiao Deyin, the granddaughter of Taifu Xiao.
