Two small figures were walking under the moon. Mingxin had already folded his hands together and looked at him without squinting his eyes, but suddenly he heard Xinping, who was walking in front of him, let out a long low sigh. He couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, why are you sighing?"

Xinping looked back at him, with a bright light flashing in his big eyes.

She said: "I'm thinking about the people I see during the day. Are they really hungry all the time?"

Mingxin dared not speak, just said, "Amitabha."

Xinping said: "Why can't they eat enough, but they can't tell their father. Isn't it the father's responsibility to let the people of the world eat enough?"

“…”

"If even his own people cannot be managed well, then he will be this emperor-"

When she said this, she seemed to feel a little ruthless and dared not continue to talk, but that bold idea could no longer be restrained and appeared in her heart and became vaguely formed.

After a while, they arrived at Yikun Palace.

Delu had been waiting here for a long time, so someone took Mingxin down first and took her to the queue room behind Yikun Palace. Xinping looked at the brightly lit front and said, "My mother hasn't been asleep yet?"

Delu said: "Your Highness, the emperor is here and is talking to the empress."

"The Father is here?"

When Xinping heard this, he thought about it and immediately said, "I'll pay my respects to my father and mother."

After saying that, he walked straight over.

As soon as I walked to the gate of Yikun Palace, before I could push the door in, I heard Zhu Feng’s low and hoarse voice coming from inside: “The Zhu Chengjin’s rebellion caused Jinling. After that, I have reduced the taxes for the people over the past few years, so this is why.”

Xinping stopped immediately.

The two people in the room did not notice the small figure standing outside the half-closed door. After listening to Zhu Feng's words, Nan Yan frowned and thought for a while, but felt something was wrong.

She said: "Even if the emperor exempts the taxes from the people in Jinling, Jinling is next to Fengji Cang, and such a large granary cannot be empty in the past few years."

There were four major granaries in the Great Yan Dynasty, among which Fengji Cang was the largest. Even Emperor Gao established the capital of Jinling because he first acquired this granary and had enough food to establish himself in the south and compete with the heroes for the world.

The Fengji Warehouse is so big that even if the people in the south don’t pay a single grain, it’s enough for them to eat for several years.

“…”

Hearing that she was so sensible, Zhu Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "You are like a housekeeper, counting everything."

Nan Yan said seriously: "Can this not count?"

Zhu Feng shook his head.

When Nan Yan saw him like this, his heart couldn't help but feel a slap in his heart.

Is it true that Fengjicang is really empty as I said just now?

If so—

This time, Nan Yan suddenly came to his senses. She lowered her voice and said, "The food that was robbed this time was not transported to Jinling, but from Jinling?"

“…”

"Where will that batch of food be transported to?"

Originally, Zhu Feng's face looked a little better just now, but when he heard Nan Yan ask this, his face became gloomy again.

Not only that, Nan Yan noticed a trace of murderous aura that had not been heard of for a long time in his eyes.

The gloomy murderous aura added a bit of chill to the originally stuffy summer night.

Nan Yan immediately realized that this matter might be as she had guessed before - "not simple".

She frowned and leaned over Zhu Feng and lowered her voice, "What is that batch of food to-"

Before he finished speaking, a calm voice came from outside the door.

"Father..."

Both of them turned around and saw Xinping standing at the door, reaching out to push the door slowly open. The flashing candlelight in the room shone on her face. The little man looked at them with an incredible expression. Only then did Nan Yan come to his senses. This girl and Mingxin have been staying in Jianfu Palace. Just now, he was only concerned about what was happening outside, but he actually forgot them.

So he immediately got up and led her over.

Xinping's face was full of complicated expressions. Nanyan led to the chair and looked at the emperor with a gloomy face. At this time, she didn't dare to speak easily, but today, she had too many doubts in her heart. She had been pestering her since she was in Dacien Temple. At this time, she finally couldn't help but ask, "Father, why can't anyone eat enough?"

When he heard this, Nan Yan frowned and whispered: "Xinping, don't talk nonsense!"

Xinping looked up at her, but continued to ask: "Why are there anyone who is already unable to eat enough? My father still has to transport food out?"

“…”

"Does the Father ignore the common people?"

Nan Yan was caught off guard and heard her daughter ask these questions as if she was asking these questions, her heartbeat was about to stop. She grabbed Xinping's arm and scolded: "What are you talking nonsense?"

As he said that, he looked at Zhu Feng carefully.

In fact, there was no need to look at it. She had already felt that the temperature in the entire Yikun Palace had suddenly dropped a little better. A chill rose from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, and she couldn't help but shivered.

Zhu Feng's face was already ashen.

His thin face showed obvious signs of gritting teeth. When he opened his mouth, his voice was low and he was obviously suppressing something. He said, "You don't understand, go down and rest first."

Nan Yanru received a general amnesty and immediately walked out with her calm arm, saying, "Don't talk nonsense in front of your father, hurry up and go down and rest!"

But Xinping is a little stubborn.

She struggled hard twice, unable to escape her mother's hand, so she could only stare at Zhu Feng stubbornly and said anxiously: "Why didn't my father answer my son's minister? Why did the father, who is the emperor, make the people of the world hungry? Why did he have to transport the food out even though he had food to make them full? Did the father not care about his own people at all?"

Nanyan's heartbeat was about to stop.

Ruoshui, Tongyun, Delu and others outside originally saw the princess coming, and were waiting outside for fear that the emperor and the imperial concubine would summon him. Unexpectedly, as soon as he came, he heard Princess Xinping say such ruthless words. They were all so scared that they all knelt down. Aunt Tongyun winked at Xinping desperately-

Your Highness, stop talking, stop talking!

However, it's too late.

Zhu Feng held the armrest of the chair with both hands and stood up slowly. Although he had lost a lot of weight, his tall body still looked like a mountain under the originally not very bright light. However, this time, he gave people the feeling that he was not a mountain that could be relied on, but a mountain that was about to be pressed down and crushed into powder.

He walked to his daughter and looked down at her.
