Chapter 143 Locust plague
"Forget it, he's the emperor, come if you want."
Shangguan smiled and said that it didn't matter, but he was extremely unwilling in his heart.
At first, I thought I could be free for three days, but I didn't expect this man to come after me in pursuit.
In this way, her original plan was disrupted.
"Come on, go to the front hall."
When Shangguan Xiaoxiao and Xiaocui and Donger appeared in the front hall, Feng Lingzun was chatting with Zuo Xiang.
Seeing her appear, a hint of surprise flashed on Feng Lingzun's face.
This made Shangguan smile for a moment, feeling that the other party came here because he was concerned about her.
But it was only for a moment, and soon she told herself that she must not have any illusions about men, especially emperors like Feng Lingzun.
[The women in the harem have not yet recognized the whole, thinking about the man who chooses the concubine again, how can it be reliable?Although he told me last time that he was also forced to be helpless, what's the use of a man who can't even decide this kind of thing himself?Shangguan smiled, you must not be fooled. 】
[I would like to know what is the purpose of following me out of the palace. 】
Feng Lingzun was not far from Shangguan Xiaoxiao, so she could hear her inner words clearly.
He thought that after explaining clearly to Shangguan with a smile last time, the other party would understand his behavior.
Unexpectedly, she still did not let go of this matter in her heart.
However, he came out of the palace to find her in such a hurry this time because he was in a hurry and wanted to hear Shangguan Xiaoxiao's opinion.
After dinner.
Shangguan smiled and looked at the man in his room with a look of helplessness.
"Your Majesty, the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion has a room for entertaining distinguished guests. Why do you need to be crowded with your concubine?"
"I'm your husband, what's wrong with sharing the same room with you?"
Feng Lingzun was not angry, but went to the bedside himself, smiled at Shangguan, and said, "I'm going to rest, change my clothes quickly."
【Do you have to measure up? 】
Shangguan smiled and gritted his teeth, standing still.
"What? My concubine has left the palace, and she even forgot how to serve me?"
Knowing that he was deliberately pissing him off, Shangguan smiled and simply sat at the table, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it slowly.
Feng Lingzun waited for a while, but he didn't see her coming, so he walked over and sat down beside her.
"Concubine Ai, it seems that I am very unwelcome."
"Didn't the emperor say that he is busy with official business? It's only been a day, how can it be finished?"
"Actually, I came to see Concubine Ai because I encountered a difficult matter and wanted to hear Concubine Ai's opinion."
Shangguan smiled and looked up at him.
【Tricky things?listen to my opinion?When did my opinion matter so much? 】
"The locust plague, Concubine Ai, have you heard of it?"
Feng Lingzun saw Shangguan smiled and nodded, and continued, "Although locust disasters occur every year, they are still within the controllable range, but this year, there are frequent reports from various places, saying that there is an uncontrollable trend. Aifei , you also know that after the last disaster, people's livelihood has eased a little, if the locust disaster is not controlled, the people's life will not be better in the second half of the year."
"so what?"
Shangguan smiled, resting his chin in one hand and slowly turning the rim of the cup in the other, "The emperor came to me because of the locust plague?"
"Exactly, because I want to hear Concubine Ai's opinion."
[He really looks at me. I am a concubine who likes to make a little money in the harem. How can I have such a great ability to control what kind of locust disaster? 】
"My concubine, what do you think I should do?"
Looking at Feng Lingzun's expectant eyes, Shangguan smiled and twitched the corners of his mouth, then shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, my concubine sometimes has many novel ideas, but for such a big problem as dealing with locust disasters, you should Professionals will do, the concubine really can't help you."
"I didn't tell you to manage it, I just want to hear my concubine's opinion. Could it be that you don't want to share my worries?"
"The concubine wants to share the emperor's worries. It also depends on whether the concubine has this ability? If I can think about how to make more money, then I can give it a try, but this is."
In fact, Shangguan Xiaoxiao didn't shirk it on purpose, just because the problem was too difficult, she really couldn't think of any useful way for a while.
But Feng Lingzun seemed to be reluctant and continued to ask, "I remember that Concubine Ai knew a master who knew everything and could do anything. Based on Concubine Ai's understanding of him, do you think he is willing to come out and help me? A handful?"
"Senior?"
Shangguan smiled and did not expect that Feng Lingzun actually started to think of the master.
In order not to reveal his secrets, and in order to reasonably explain his original actions, Shangguan Xiaoxiao could only forcibly fabricate reasons.
"That expert, I recently heard that I went to a distant place for a trip, and I won't show up for a while. The concubine feels that the emperor can only find a way by himself."
Hearing that he couldn't hire an expert, Feng Lingzun's face became even more sad.
Knowing his inner worries, Shangguan Xiaoxiao could only sigh helplessly in his heart.
【Who told me to be softhearted?Seeing how worried he looked, I just couldn't help him, so I had to help him find a way. 】
[It’s really not possible, ask Xiaoqi, or ask the system for help. 】
When Feng Lingzun heard Shangguan Xiaoxiao's intention to help him, a smile finally appeared on his gloomy face.
But he couldn't be too obvious.
Otherwise, if Shangguan Xiaoxiao knew that he could read her heart, he would definitely guard against him in the future, then it would be no fun.
"Aifei, is there really no other way?"
"Currently, the concubines really have nothing to do. But..."
Shangguan smiled and stood up, and thoughtfully walked a few steps in the room, "Your Majesty, why don't you let your concubine think about it for a few days, maybe you will come up with something, and then you must inform the Emperor."
"I knew that Concubine Ai would have a solution."
"No, Your Majesty, you can't say too much too soon. If you can't do it, the concubine is afraid that the Emperor will blame you."
"Of course I won't blame Concubine Ai."
Feng Lingzun also stood up and reached out to grab Shangguan Xiaoxiao's wrist.
"Concubine Ai is the most special one among the concubines I have ever met."
【Confession?Then tell me you love me! 】
Shangguan Xiaoxiao's inner drama began to soar, and a blush appeared on his face unconsciously.
【and then?Why don't you talk? 】
Looking at her expectant eyes, Feng Lingzun wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. In the end, he deliberately put on a serious expression, "Change clothes for me, I want to rest early."
【what?Is this gone?Don't you mean I'm the most special one?Scumbag! 】
Shangguan smiled and complained in his heart, but on the surface he looked docile, and at the same time helped Feng Lingzun take off his coat skillfully.
Just when he was about to help Feng Lingzun untie his belt, he was caught by him, and the whole person was held firmly in his arms.
"Your Majesty, you are."
