Qin Yining felt scared.

If she just ignored the clues she found just now, it is very likely that it will attract the attention of Li Qitian. Even their actions to find clues just now may have fallen into the eyes of Li Qitian.

Seeing her frowning, Pang Xiao easily guessed what she was worried about, and couldn't help touching her forehead soothingly: "Silly girl, what are you thinking about? The people under you are experienced in doing things and must not reveal their deeds. Not to mention Yangxian County. The terrain is inherently tortuous, and there are many mountain roads. It is not easy to find a way when it is intact. Besides, after the Earth Dragon turned over, the entire county has been turned into a pot of porridge? What's more, even if they keep their eyesight, they must first monitor me. The target, and then it may be your small target, and it may not be able to find you immediately."

Qin Yining laughed when he heard the words, "You know me best. I don't say anything, you know what I'm thinking."

"Of course." Pang Xiao pinched her cheek proudly, "I know what you do with just one look. For example, now you think your husband is handsome and suave, do you really want to kiss me? "

"Be cheeky." Qin Yining greeted him with a pink fist.

Pang Xiao, however, held her soft fist in the palm of his hand, moved it to his lips and gave a soft kiss: "Don't worry, I'm here."

Don't worry, Qin Yining can't help but bury his head in his chest, breathe in the scent of acacia on his body and the masculine breath that belongs to him, and mutterly: "I see. I'm not afraid, and I'm not worried."

Pang Xiaoshen's arms hugged her tightly, and his big hands gently patted her back.

The people around her, except Qin Huaiyuan, are all relying on her. She is very smart, and she can handle things on her own, even more decisive than many men.

But everyone forgot that no matter how strong she was, she was just a girl.

And he was eight years older than her. Could it be that when she was by his side, would he still make her worry

As if swearing, Pang Xiao whispered in her ear: "Don't worry, leave everything to me."

She was like a well-behaved little animal, nodding in his arms, her hair rubbing against his chin, causing a tickling.

The two got along quietly for a while, then went out to arrange disaster relief. Everything is in the same way as the old capital, cleaning up the ruins, building a porridge shed and a medical shed, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to the plan.

Gong Zhifu also allocated the money donated by Pang Xiao to part of Li Zhi County.

But the difficulties of Li Zhixian and Gong Zhifu are the same.

"My lord, now we have nowhere to buy grain. Some grain stores have already fallen into the hands of the big households, and the big households seem to have made appointments one by one, biting the grain price so tightly that a stone of brown rice has risen to ten Two silver coins!"

"Ten taels of silver?" Gong Zhifu sucked in a breath of cold air, and said in shock and anger, "These bastards who have made a fortune in the country! It's only been two days, and they have increased their prices by another 2 taels."

Li Zhixian looked at Pang Xiao, "Your Highness, what should we do next?"

Pang Xiao rubbed his chin and turned to look at Qin Yining: "Now I can only negotiate with them. If only I had soldiers in my hands now."

Qin Yining said angrily, "What if there are soldiers?"

"If there are soldiers and horses, I am a wolf with teeth. If I disagree, I will eat people! Slip my group of little wolf cubs to those big households, no need to negotiate, just ask them if you want your life or money, and you'll be fine. Enough to deter them from selling rice grains at normal prices."

"Hey! If the lord can bring troops, what are we going to say! Just rush in and catch those beasts who are rich and ruthless. No need for anything else, the lord will scare them to wet their pants when they stop there!" The servants could not help but agree.

But Pang Xiao, who has no military power, is now like a wolf whose sharp teeth have been pulled out. Even if he is prestige, what can he do? Not to be controlled by people

Gong Zhifu and Li Zhixian sighed when they heard the words.

These little officials outside, don't know much about the capital. But how could Pang Xiao be a loyal, benevolent and righteous person, how could he do such rebellious and treacherous things

The emperor's wariness is understandable.

It's just that under such precautions, the serious things are delayed, and it is really chilling for a hero who has sweated blood and sweat for the establishment of the country to be under such precautions.

But such a betrayed person was able to donate such a large amount of belongings to buy food and medicine for the people in the disaster area, and he donated silently when the country's rice and disaster relief funds did not arrive. from.

How can such a person not be deeply respected

"Forget it, for today's plan, I'm the only one who will talk to them in person. I will be emotional and understand the reason, and see if I can negotiate the price." Pang Xiao got up and asked Hu Zi and Jing Hu Wei to accompany him.

Qin Yining said: "I won't go with you. Today I plan to go to Zhuangzi to see if I can bring some rice grains. I don't know if my Zhuangzi is seriously affected."

Pang Xiao nodded and said: "You pay attention to safety, I will tell the people around you to follow you."

"No, it's more urgent on your side. Bring a few more guards. It's enough for me to bring four guards."

Pang Xiao looked at the four Jing Zhe behind Qin Yining, and nodded reassuringly.

Gong Zhifu and Li Zhixian sent the two out of the gate, looking at their backs with hope as they walked away, looked at each other, and said with emotion: "The prince and the princess are really good people, especially the princess, follow us here. Eating gruel and running around for food and grass, but I have never heard a single complaint. Only such a woman is worthy of a benevolent and righteous person like Prince Zhongshun.”

"yes."

Although they couldn't get enough to eat, there were big figures like the prince and the princess here to accompany them to endure hardships and think of ways together, and they were full of energy.

Li Zhixian and Gong Zhifu were busy to settle the disaster victims, and they were busy with the appropriate size.

Qin Yining went to a farm not far from Yang County together with four silver-faced spies, including Bingtang, Jiyun, and Jingzhe.

The person who answered the door was a little girl who looked six or seven years old in a bun and a coarse cloth jacket.

As soon as she saw Qin Yining, the little girl shouted in surprise, "It's the Fourth Miss! The Fourth Miss is here!"

Qin Yining thought about it carefully before recognizing who the little girl in front of her was.

"Are you Ping Ya'er? You have grown a lot taller. I almost didn't recognize you." At the beginning of Changchun Mountain, Qin Yining took in many victims in the Ningyuan where Pang Xiao sent her, and Ping Ya'er was one of them. , Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper Zhong Da arranged her in the Zhuangzi in Yangxian County.

"Oh! It's really the Fourth Miss!"

Hearing Ping Ya'er's call, several people from Zhuangzi came out, and when they met Qin Yining, they all gave big gifts and greeted him with a lot of tongues.

"Fourth Miss!"

"Why are you here!"

"Quick, quick, please sit in the Engong's house."

Qin Yining was let into the room by the stars.
