Chapter 61 A Wave! (Ask for Monthly Ticket)

…

Tianrui Holy City.

Downtown area.

This place is full of dragons and snakes, and there are all kinds of teahouses and wine shops.

One of the streets is a gathering place for various small grain merchants and drug dealers.

Dongye Brahma is the shopkeeper of a small grain store.

On this day, he opened the shop as usual. After giving instructions to a few waiters, he went to the grain shop opposite with a pot of tea.

Compared with his shop, the grain store opposite was obviously not doing well. There were only a few clerks in the large store, which looked quite desolate.

In the shop, a middle-aged man in a brown robe was busy with his head down.

The robe he was wearing was of good quality, but it had been washed a little white, and the cuffs had rough edges. He had obviously been wearing it for many years.

"Brother Bo Hong." Dongye Fentian took a sip of tea, looked at his former competitor with a smile, and said in a slow tone, "Are you still selling your spiritual rice? Tsk tsk, your temper is not what I said about you. Lingmi has been at a low price for more than ten years, and sales are sluggish. Can you survive like this?"

A hundred years ago, Dongye Fentian and Beigong Bohong were good friends, but since they each ran a grain store door to door, their relationship has become increasingly cold and distant.

It is understandable that colleagues are enemies.

But more than ten years ago, both families had stocked up on a lot of spiritual rice, but the price of spiritual rice dropped by half. After the two families had managed each for a year or two, Dongye Fentian worked flexibly and felt that the sluggish grain market would be difficult to pick up in a short time, so he sold it to a purchaser at a price of 40% when a purchaser secretly purchased it.

Although this wave of flesh-cutting caused him a lot of losses, it also freed up funds for him. After thinking about it, he decided to switch to the elixir business. Over the past ten years, he gradually regained some vitality.

On the other hand, Beigong Bohong's grain storage back then is still backlogged in the warehouse, and no matter who comes to collect it, he grits his teeth and is unwilling to let go. Over the years, the store has become increasingly depressed, funds have become increasingly tight, and even several of the clerks have left.

This made Higashikata Brahma feel even more grateful for his decision, and would come to mock Beigong Bohong every now and then.

Faced with Dongye Fentian's ridicule, Beigong Bohong still worked silently and wiped the counter himself.

When Dongye Brahma saw this, he sneered lightly and said calmly: "Brother Bo Hong, I advise you not to support yourself so hard. Why don't you just open your shop and give me even the grain store and the shop. You Take a sum of money and go back to the countryside as soon as possible~"

Beigong Bohong has heard these words countless times over the years. He was really too lazy to talk to Dongye Brahma anymore, so he just ignored his words and went about his own work.

Dongye Brahma didn't care about this, and after sarcastically satisfying his sense of superiority, he prepared to go back with the teapot.

But unexpectedly at this moment.

An extremely excited voice came from the street: "Brother-in-law, it's up, it's up~~"

Dongye Fentian's spiritual consciousness swept away, only to find that it was Beigong Bohong's brother-in-law who was in the early stage of the Heavenly Realm. This kid looked very excited, flying all the way here using his body skills.

"What's going up?" Dongye Brahma stopped and scolded him, "You little brat, don't be so frizzy. This is a holy city. If you bump into a big shot, you won't be able to eat and walk around. .”

"What does it have to do with you?" The brother-in-law glared at him, and then said to Beigong Bohong with a look of ecstasy, "Brother-in-law, the price of food has gone up. It has doubled overnight."

Dongye Brahma was the first to look blank: "How is that possible?"

Although there does seem to be a shortage of food at the moment, Prince Wenyu's related industries are still suppressing food prices.

Prince Wen Yu is a man of great power. If he wants to suppress food prices, who can make food prices rise?

On the other hand, Beigong Bohong's face was calm as usual: "Wenle, Brother Fentian is right to criticize you. It's really unreasonable for you to be so irritable and restless."

While talking.

Suddenly a group of people appeared on the street.

The leader was the chief shopkeeper of the famous grain merchant [Li's Trading Company] in Xiacheng District.

As soon as the big shopkeeper came up, he smiled and cupped his hands to Beigong Bohong: "Brother Bohong, congratulations~"

Like Beigong Bohong, who has been gritting his teeth for more than ten years.

There are very few grain merchants who do not sell grain at low prices. He has already become famous among the grain merchants in Xiacheng District.

"Shopkeeper Li." Beigong Bohong did not dare to neglect and hurriedly returned the courtesy.

"Is the grain in the warehouse still there?" Shopkeeper Li made some pleasantries and then went straight to the point, "The current market price has doubled. How about I pay an extra 20% and take all the grain from you?"

Beigong Bohong frowned. Just when he was about to speak, another group of businessmen came next to him.

The leader among them is the big shopkeeper of [Zhao's Trading], who is also a big businessman in the lower city.

Compared to these two big trading houses, Beigong Bohong and Dongye Fentian are nothing more than small shrimps.

"Shopkeeper Li is so stingy, I'll charge an extra 40%!" Shopkeeper Zhao got into a fighting stance as soon as he came up.

"I'll pay an additional 45%!"

"I'll pay an extra 50%!"

Several other big businessmen were also unwilling to be outdone, and they actually raised the price with each other's words. The scene looked like an auction.

Dongye Brahma looked at this and that, his eyes became more and more shocked, and his face became paler and paler.

This price has already exceeded the previous highest price of grain by a large margin.

Doesn't this mean that Beigong Bohong has done nothing in the past ten years, and not only did he not lose money, but he also made an extra fortune?

"Two great shopkeepers." When Bei Gong Bohong saw this posture, he was not happy but was shocked. He hurriedly bowed to everyone and said in a low voice, "I can only sell this small shop slowly, and I really can't live up to you two." ”

Now he doesn't dare to wholesale sell the grain he has on hand. Selling to this family will definitely offend another family.

And looking at this trend, there will be a sustained period of skyrocketing in food prices in the future, so he is reluctant to cash out immediately.

Sell ​​slowly and make more profit than wholesale directly.

When the two big shopkeepers heard this, they felt sorry, but since they really didn't want to sell, they couldn't buy or sell by force, so they had to stop and look for the next one.

Nowadays, as long as you can receive food, you have earned it, and food has suddenly become hard currency.

Dongye Brahma recalled his previous cynicism and felt his face being slapped.

He staggered back to his shop, shrinking his head and feeling extremely annoyed.

If he had known this, he would have just followed Beigong Bohong's example and persisted.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world. No matter how upset he is, there is nothing he can do.

Similar scenes are happening all over the Holy City. Similarly, this rising food price will quickly spread throughout the Holy Dynasty and surrounding Immortal Dynasties.

…

And as this trend of price increases gradually ferments, some people can't sit still.

Inside the gatehouse of Prince Wenyu's Mansion.

Helian Duocai was in a panic.

These days, he had already sensed that something was wrong, and was planning to discuss countermeasures with Prince Wen Yu. He even invited Yao Xingshu to drink for this purpose, hoping that he would help make some insinuations.

Unexpectedly, before it started working, it suddenly collapsed.

No, early this morning, as soon as he realized something was wrong, he hurried over to report to Prince Wenyu.

It's a pity that he is just a peripheral role among the staff of Prince Wen Yu, and he does not have the right to enter the prince's palace to meet the prince directly without notification.

Every time you want to see Prince Wen Yu, you have to make an appointment in advance. Sometimes, you can't make an appointment because Prince Wen Yu has too many trivial matters.

Not long after, Yao Xingshu hurried over and led Helian Duocai to see Prince Wen Yu.

In the study room.

Prince Wen Yu, who had already understood the current situation, had a gloomy expression on his face. When he saw Helian Duocai, he scolded with a cold face: "What's going on? Why did the price of food soar all of a sudden?"

"Back to Your Highness," Helian Duocai said hurriedly, "In fact, in the past three or four years, food prices have been showing signs of recovery. It's just that we continued to suppress food prices by following our previous strategy of selling and suppressing food prices."

"However, this price increase is quite strange, and someone is probably behind it. Otherwise, according to the original situation, we can keep food prices down for at least another seven or eight years."

Prince Wen Yu's face suddenly turned cold as ice: "So

Come on, is it Jiang and Wang Shouzhe who are causing trouble in secret? "

"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Helian Duocai's eyelids twitched and he said in a harsh voice, "However, there should be other factors. My subordinates investigated some situations some time ago. Many third-grade spirits in many families ten years ago Purple-leaf Polygonum multiflorum has been planted in the fields. Now it is almost ready to reach the level of 'fifty-year-old'. It has medicinal properties and can be used as the main material of 'Xiao Pei Yuan Dan' after harvesting."

"Because the price of purple-leaf Polygonum multiflorum has increased year after year, many families have replanted most of their third-grade rice fields with Purple-leaf Polygonum multiflorum... This means that in the next ten years, the shortage of Third-grade rice will become even more intense!"

"Under such incentives, as long as someone is willing to speculate, food prices will naturally rise."

Following Helian Duocai's narration, Prince Wen Yu roughly understood what was going on.

He said in a deep voice: "Wang Shouzhe's grain has been stuck in various ways for more than ten years and cannot be sold. The Jiang family has been constantly building warehouses to hoard grain. Once the price of grain rises sharply, it is very likely that they will be able to get rid of the problem~~ We have invested a lot Funds and more than ten years of hard work will be wasted.”

"However, since Mr. Jiang and Wang Shouzhe finally couldn't help but take action, they probably can't hold it anymore. As long as we suppress their operation, Wang Shouzhe will have no choice but to cooperate with us!"

Helian Duocai hurriedly said: "Your Highness, in order to suppress the price of food over the years, we have used up all the original inventory, and also borrowed a lot from the relevant immortal kings' mansions and immortal clans. Now we don't have much leftover food. I’m afraid it will be difficult to suppress this momentum.”

In this case, if you want to hold down grain prices, you must sell grains at low prices. This is impossible without sufficient stocks of spiritual rice.

Prince Wen Yu's face was as gloomy as iron: "Our Holy City also has one, two, and three grain storage warehouses. Each warehouse is equal to the annual output of the entire Holy Dynasty and each Immortal Dynasty. What do you think? My warrant, to open a position and sell, will definitely crush Wang Shouzhe to death."

As long as Wang Shouzhe can be made to compromise, everything will be worth it.

As Xuanwu monks, their life span is not calculated in terms of hundreds and thousands of years. In the long run, the advantages will definitely outweigh the immediate disadvantages.

The heritage of a holy dynasty is certainly very strong. In addition to each family hoarding grain, the holy city also built several large grain storage warehouses. These are giant grain storage warehouses built to cope with special situations such as disaster years and wars. According to the normal market price, the food in each granary should reach about three Chaos Spiritual Stones.

If we open a warehouse to sell grain, it will definitely keep the price of grain cool.

But as soon as Prince Wen Yu said these words, Helian Duocai's expression became a little strange: "Has Your Highness forgotten?"

"What did this prince forget?" Prince Wen Yu was stunned.

"In order to stabilize grain prices and keep grain prices low over the years, we have been selling at low prices continuously. Over the years, we have used up two warehouses one after another." Helian Duocai's face turned bitter. "There are grain merchants from all over the DPRK coming to collect grain, so we have to sell it, right? If we don't sell it, the price of grain will rise immediately!"

Prince Wen Yu couldn't help but die from a mouthful of old blood.

He vaguely remembered that he had indeed given the order and handwriting to Prince Helian Duocai before. It's just that over the years, he has been fighting fiercely with the eldest prince and the third prince, and he is worried every day. These things occupy more than 90% of his energy and attention.

Originally, I thought that as long as Wang Shouzhe was held back until he completely suppressed the "internal troubles", he would be free to use the momentum of victory to negotiate with Wang Shouzhe and end the matter completely.

But he never imagined that the situation would have deteriorated to such an extent in the blink of an eye.

"Well, Wang Shouzhe, you actually stabbed me in the back so hard when I couldn't escape." The more Prince Wen Yu thought about it, the angrier he became, and his voice suddenly became colder, "Yao Xingshu, pass me the handwriting." , ordering us to contact all major aristocratic families and immortal dynasties to immediately free up their fields and plant spiritual rice. Just wait and see how this prince deals with him!"

"As long as this prince doesn't agree, no one can even think of a dragon crossing the river!"

When he said this, his tone was firm and confident, because he knew how terrifying the number of spiritual fields owned by the major families who supported him were, and how large their output was.

As far as the Yao family from the super-grade immortal clan is concerned, the number of manors located in and around the holy city is no less than a few dozen, and there are countless spiritual fields. The annual output can almost reach the entire

One-thirtieth of a holy pilgrimage.

"Yes, Prince."

Yao Xingshu bowed to accept the order, but looked at Prince Wen Yu eagerly, with an embarrassed expression on his face, and did not move.

"Star Book?" Prince Wen Yu raised his sword eyebrows, looking a little confused, "But are there any difficulties?"

"Ahem~"

Yao Xingshu cleared his throat and said seriously: "Xingshu doesn't know much about the situation of other aristocratic families. I'll just talk about our Yao family... Our Yao family's current food reserves are not much. It is only enough for the family's own consumption for two years. The name Most of the spiritual fields in the manor below have been planted with [Purple-leaf Polygonum multiflorum], [Nine-leaf Scrophulariaceae], and various fourth- and fifth-grade elixirs."

"And this time the family is following a long-term elixir planting strategy, that is, the first-grade spiritual field is planted with fifty-year-old purple-leaf Polygonum multiflorum, and the second-grade spiritual field is planted with hundred-year-old purple-leaf Polygonum multiflorum. For these two levels of spiritual fields alone, the planting cycle is It will reach nearly a hundred years, not to mention the higher-grade elixirs, which have a planting cycle of hundreds to thousands of years, and some elixirs even have a planning cycle of thousands of years."

For a super-level immortal clan, when planning the family's future development route, they will not be as stringent as a small family. Even a hundred-year plan is nothing more than a short-term plan for the immortal clan.

Prince Wen Yu was lucky enough not to be angry to death. He slammed the table and said angrily: "Yao Xingshu, do you, the Yao family, want to betray this prince?"

Hearing that he was so rude, Yao Xingshu felt a little angry, and his tone was a bit harsh: "Your Highness, we Yao family are indeed your supporters, but we are not your slaves, right? Besides, His Highness did not prohibit us before. Why did the Yao family betray His Highness when he cultivated the elixir?"

"The family's development plan is related to the fate of my Yao family for thousands of years in the future. It is decided by many clan elders and family heads in the family. I, Yao Xingshu, is just a true fairy of the Yao family. How can I get the family's development policy? Call the shots?"

Yao Xingshu had the confidence to dare to say this.

The Tianrui Yao family is not a weak immortal clan like the Jiang family that has begun to decline. The Yao family currently has four true immortals, and there is a high possibility that a fifth will appear in the future.

The most rare thing is that the Shuiyue Saint who worshiped in Shuiyue Cave is also a member of the Yao family, and will be a proper saint in the future.

In addition to these powerful people, the Tianrui Yao clan also has a large number of people who hold important positions in the Holy Palace and have great influence.

Just because Yao supports Prince Wen Yu’s ascension to the throne, does not mean that he is Prince Wen Yu’s dog! On the contrary, Prince Wen Yu needs Yao's full help both now and in the future.

Facing Yao Xingshu's "counterattack", Prince Wen Yu's heart also "thumped", and he suddenly knew that he had lost control of his emotions and had spoken too seriously.

He hurriedly suppressed his mood and showed an apologetic expression to Yao Xingshu: "Xingshu, you and I have known each other for many years, and you also know my temper. I am not blaming you or Yao, but I have been worried about too many things recently. , it is inevitable that I will lose control of my emotions.”

Seeing Prince Wen Yu taking the initiative to hand over the steps, Yao Xingshu's momentum also weakened, and he said harmoniously: "I understand your highness's difficulties, but the Yao family is not the Yao family of Xingshu alone, and I hope your highness will forgive you."

In fact, it is not unusual for the Yao clan of the Immortal Clan to do this, simply because of the word "profit".

After he returned from Helian Duocai's place, he specifically asked his family members. He found out that Sister Yumei was the one pulling the strings, and that Saint Shuiyue was the guarantee. The family had no worries, so he boldly gave up the spiritual life for the time being. Mi changed to plant elixirs to seek greater benefits.

As for Yao's personal use of spiritual rice, there is no need to worry. Saint Shui Yue has already secretly promised that Yao will not be short of spiritual rice.

However, Yao Xingshu would not tell Prince Wen Yu in detail about the information he had gathered. He is first of all a direct descendant of the Yao family, and secondly a subordinate of Prince Wen Yu.

In any immortal or holy dynasty, "home" comes before "country". In the final analysis, the Luqiu clan of the Tianrui royal family is just a larger holy clan, and there is no fundamental difference from these aristocratic families.

"Your Highness, as far as I know, other major families, and even many Immortal Prince's Mansions, have switched to elixir cultivation. It's just a question of the share." Yao Xingshu sighed, "No one thought that the price of food would actually increase. So unbearable."

Prince Wen Yu's face was extremely ugly: "But...

Is it possible to plant spiritual rice instead? This prince can subsidize their losses..."

"Difficult!" It was Helian Duocai who spoke this time, "Your Highness, let me settle the account for you. Most families started planting elixirs ten years ago, but because the growth cycle of elixirs is much longer than Spiritual rice has to grow, and so far, there are still many families who have not made substantial gains."

"If food prices are normal, the total annual food output of our holy dynasty and surrounding dynasties, converted into spiritual stones, can reach about two to three chaos spiritual stones. Now, the income from planting spiritual medicine is more than that from planting spiritual rice. , that means the total annual output reaches three Chaos Spiritual Stones!"

"Assuming that all aristocratic families are required to eradicate spiritual medicines and plant various types of spiritual rice, the subsidy we need to prepare is expected to exceed thirty chaos spiritual stones."

"Thirty Chaos Spiritual Stones?!" Prince Wen Yu was stunned at first, and then his face turned extremely ugly.

Can the Tianrui royal family produce thirty Chaos Spiritual Stones at once? The answer is of course yes! However, this will definitely require a lot of effort and effort to squeeze it out, and it may even require mortgaging some properties, which may damage the foundation.

If the person who wants to raise these thirty Chaos Spiritual Stones is the Holy Emperor, then of course there will be no problem. However, Prince Wenyu is still only one of the princes of the Tianrui Holy Dynasty. How can he mobilize such a huge amount of funds?

Just when he had a headache.

Suddenly.

The air in the study room shook violently.

Waves of energy trembling and buzzing sounds that were imperceptible to human ears were heard, and a vast energy emerged out of thin air, and then quickly condensed.

In an instant, an old man wearing royal robes appeared in the study.

He wears a gilt crown inlaid with gold and jade on his head, and his royal robe is thick and complicated, inlaid with many gems and spiritual stones, which makes him look majestic and luxurious.

Even though he was old and even his hair was gray, his figure still had no rickets at all. His aura was fierce and powerful, majestic and full of royal majesty.

His appearance made the air in the study seem to freeze instantly.

Everyone was stunned.

After a full breath, Prince Wen Yu suddenly reacted and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Jun Xi pays homage to our ancestors."

Yao Xingshu and Helian Duocai also hurriedly bent down deeply: "Greetings to His Majesty the Holy Emperor."

This powerful old man is naturally the current Holy Emperor of the Tianrui Holy Dynasty.

However, what the Holy Emperor came to this time was just a projection, and the strength of the True Theory was only slightly stronger than that of ordinary monks in the early stages of the True Immortal Realm.

"Junxi, how do you do things?" Tianrui Holy Emperor had obviously heard the news, and scolded Prince Wenyu with a cold face as soon as he showed up, "I heard that several major grain storage warehouses are empty? Quan Sheng The food supplies of the major families in the dynasty have also been emptied, and the remaining food is only enough to last less than two years?"

Prince Wen Yu trembled all over and his face suddenly turned pale. He did not dare to hide anything and hurriedly explained the matter exactly.

After hearing this, Emperor Tianrui's expression became uncertain.

He never expected that in the blink of an eye, in just ten years, Prince Wen Yu would be able to annihilate the Holy Dynasty to such an extent.

Ten years is a long time for ordinary people without cultivation. It is enough time for them to grow up from babbling to starting a family. But for a Holy Emperor with a life span of nearly 40,000 years, it is just a nap. It's just a matter of effort.

"Wang Shouzhe! Are you saying that all this was caused by your attempt to suppress Wang Shouzhe and force him to cooperate with you?" Tianrui Holy Emperor frowned slightly, "This person's name is as powerful as mine. Fill your ears~~"

Whether it was due to various rumors, Qingyang's affairs, or Holy Lord Yunpeng's unabashed admiration, it was shown that Wang Shouzhe had a good background, and Holy Emperor Tianrui had long wanted to meet him.

It's just that he is a majestic holy emperor, and the other party is just a junior no matter how powerful he is.

The juniors didn't come to take the initiative to meet him, how could he lower his status and take the initiative to meet the juniors? If this spread, it might cause a lot of ridicule, and it would also make that boy Wang Shouzhe look down on him as the Holy Emperor.

Therefore, after so many years, he still only knew Wang Shouzhe by his name.

"Ancestor, don't worry." Prince Wen Yu hurriedly promised, "Give me a few decades, and I promise to turn this

The mess was slowly cleared up. The grain in the hands of Wang Shouzhe only accounts for 10% of the total output of the entire Holy Dynasty. I just let him earn this money, and I will try not to provoke him in the future. "

"Decades?"

When Tianrui Holy Emperor heard this, he was so angry that even his voice became cold: "Do you think our Tianrui Holy Dynasty has decades of time to squander on you?"

"What does our ancestor mean... Tianxing Holy Dynasty?" Prince Wen Yu trembled in his heart, and his face suddenly turned pale, "That's right. If we and Tianxing Holy Dynasty were in different places, we would not let this go. Chance."

Nowadays, Tianrui Holy Dynasty is in short supply of food and can only sustain itself for one or two years. If Tianxing Holy Dynasty launches a large-scale attack at this time and presses the entire front line... then the advantage they have will be too obvious.

As we all know, during a war, food consumption will be several times more than usual!

The supply of logistical food and grass is itself the lifeblood of the war.

Once there is a shortage of food across the board, how can we fight this battle? If we can barely survive, the Tianrui Holy Dynasty will inevitably be severely weakened and will no longer be as prosperous as before.

Prince Wen Yu's heart trembled at the thought of such a tragic situation.

It was only then that he finally realized that this time, he seemed to have caused a big trouble.

Not only him, but everyone else in the study also realized the seriousness of the matter. For a moment, everyone's expressions became very serious.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness." Helian Duocai also turned pale, but thinking of his current situation, he gritted his teeth and spoke tremblingly, "I have an idea, I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

The Holy Emperor glanced at him: "Say."

"Wang Shouzhe was born into a noble family, and going out to gain experience was just to gain experience. For him, the grain business was a feat to prove his ability. His deep-seated purpose was not to bring down the Holy Dynasty or become an enemy of the Holy Dynasty." He Lian Duocai shared his thoughts, "In the past ten years or so, we have used official means to detain the other party, and secondly, used low food prices to suppress the other party. Therefore, in the past ten years, their food sales have Very limited.”

"Based on the previous sales amount of Jiang's agent, the grain supplied by the other party in a year accounts for about 10% of the Holy Dynasty's output. After ten years of stockpiling food, the grain stockpiled is approximately equal to the entire Holy Dynasty's annual output."

"As long as we get this food, we can meet a large part of the army's war preparation needs, and can indirectly curb the ambitions of the Tianxing Holy Dynasty to avoid war."

The Holy Emperor nodded frequently after hearing this: "You have a good idea. Even if you have to pay a price first, as long as the immediate crisis is solved, there will naturally be enough time to gradually clean up the mess. Junxi, since you are the one who caused this matter, It's up to you to ask Wang Shouzhe to sell grain."

"I will obey my ancestor's will."

Prince Wen Yu responded with a dark face.

The thought of him going to surrender to Wang Shouzhe, or even begging for mercy, made him feel extremely resentful. However, this matter was brought about by himself, and now that the ancestor of the Holy Emperor personally ordered it, he really did not dare to shirk it.

"Okay, let's go do some work."

The Holy Emperor's projection didn't bother to stay here any longer. After explaining the matter, it turned into a mass of energy light and shadow, and dissipated without a trace in an instant.

Prince Wen Yu breathed a sigh of relief, then cheered up and said, "Duocai, Xingshu, please come with me, and let's go meet Wang Shouzhe."

"Your Highness, I'm afraid this matter is not that simple." Helian Duocai sighed, "Over the years, someone has been secretly purchasing grain at low prices and promoting the elixir industry. Now it seems that it is mostly Wang Shouzhe who does this kind of manipulation. The overall approach has allowed me to see what real business methods are."

"Your Highness, I'm afraid you have to be prepared for the lion to open your mouth this time."

Upon hearing this, Prince Wen Yu suddenly felt as sick as if he had been force-fed flies. But what to do? If this matter is not dealt with, the entire Tianrui Holy Dynasty will face a crisis.

When that time comes, I'm afraid he will be the prince for the rest of his life.

Holding back the nausea in his heart, Prince Wen Yu finally went directly to the [Guiyuan Courtyard] to pay his respects to Wang Shouzhe.

At this moment.

In the Guiyuan Villa.

On the waterfront balcony of the waterside pavilion in the center of the lake, Wang Shouzhe is sitting in a Taishi chair.

, while the wind was blowing, drinking fairy tea, and telling stories to Wang Zongzhu, the slightly grown-up "Bamboo Jian'er" in his arms.

There is also a plate of fish food on his right side. While telling stories, he sprinkled fish food here and there to feed the spiritual fish in the lake.

Unknowingly, a large number of spiritual fish gathered under the hydrophilic building. Densely packed fish heads surged in the water, looking very lively.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"

Sun Jian'er squirmed in Wang Shouzhe's arms, expressing that he didn't like to hear it and wanted to listen to Dream of Red Mansions.

"Okay, daddy here are some simple math questions. After you get them all right, daddy will tell you." Wang Shouzhe took out a test paper with a smile.

"Crack!"

Zhu Jian'er's body froze, and a series of golden lightning exploded from his body.

Mathematics, mathematics again!

Wang Zongzhu really wants to explode on the spot~~

"Young Master, Prince Wen Yu pays his respects." At this time, Jiang Muxian walked quickly and whispered in his ear, "Do you want to see him?"

"Haha~~ You can't hold it anymore so soon? It seems that the Tianrui royal family is under a lot of pressure." Wang Shouzhe shook his head and said with a smile, "If you ask him to go back first, just say that I am in retreat, no Sora sees him.”

"Yes, young master." Jiang Muxian immediately responded and retreated.

"Zhu'er." Wang Shouzhe picked up Wang Zongzhu and looked at him with a smile. "Do the questions well. If you make a mistake, Daddy will make up a paper for you. No matter how late today, Daddy will stay with you until the end."

How could Prince Wen Yu's affairs be as important as his own son's exams?

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

Wang Zongzhu, who looked like a bamboo shoot, had tears in his eyes. He hurriedly wrapped his pen with spiritual thoughts and started writing the title with a "swish, swish, swish" sound. At the same time, he felt as if ten thousand grass and mud horses were running past in his heart.

Why is this question so stupid?

A swimming pool, water was released and filled at the same time... Are you crazy? Is this a problem caused by a lunatic? This is not intentional.

Is it difficult for him, a little bamboo?

Woohoo~~Sister Daiyu, wait for Zhuer, wait until Zhuer finishes answering the questions and then come back to accompany you~~

…
