Chapter 1191 The Prime Minister’s Insidiousness (1)
Pushing the door open suddenly, Si Jing saw Li Hong standing inside the room waiting for her.
Tears instantly filled her eyes and Si Jing choked up and wanted to call his name, but no sound came out.
"Ah..." Helpless, he could only make a sound. Li Hong turned around immediately after hearing the sound and saw Si Jing standing at the door. Looking at her eyes full of tears, Li Hong chuckled and opened his hands.
"Woo!" Si Jing couldn't bear it anymore and threw herself into Li Hong's arms.
The pain of lovesickness finally found an antidote.
"Li Hong."
"Eh."
"Li Hong..."
"Eh!"
"Li Hong!!!"
"Jing'er, I'm here."
Over and over again, Si Jing called Li Hong's name, and Li Hong responded patiently, kissing her as response.
"I miss you so much!" Si Jing cried while hugging Li Hong. "I miss you so much... it hurts my heart."
"I miss you, too." Li Hong kissed away her tears with a distressed look. "This time, I took the opportunity to buy food from my elder brother. I can't bear it anymore. Come home with me, okay? No matter how dangerous it is, we will not be separated."
"Okay." Si Jingxin was delighted and responded immediately.
Heyang City is very safe, but it is not her home. She feels like an alien here and cannot fit in.
She missed him so much, and home was where he was.
"I was wrong. I shouldn't have sent you away!" Li Hong regretted. Without her by his side, he had no motivation to do anything.
"I miss you, I miss our home! It's so empty here without you..." Si Jing cried.
No matter how good Ji Xiaou is, she cannot replace Li Hong.
Li Hong wiped away her tears distressedly and kissed her lips. "We will never be separated again."
Si Jing responded to Li Hong's kiss passionately, and the two of them remained passionate.
Lovers snuggle up to each other, and their hearts finally settle down.
Ji Xiaowu nodded and came to Fang Chen's study. Seeing that he was still concentrating on his work, she stepped forward and gently pressed his shoulders. "Aren't you done yet? Take a break first!"
"Why are you here?" Fang Chen held Ji Xiaomu in his arms and rubbed her face like a wolf.
"I missed you." Ji Xiaomu kissed Fang Chen's face and said with a smile.
Fang Chen's heart softened and he kissed her.
Ji Xiaowu was kissed so hard that her whole body went limp, and Fang Chen let her go. "This is the news that Li Hong brought, take a look."
"What news?" Ji Xiaomu took it curiously and saw the message above.
It turned out that after the Fourth Prince returned to the city, he began to vigorously develop planting, as if he wanted to learn from Heyang City and plant grain fields to ensure the granary in the rear.
As the prime minister was unable to buy grain, he actually began to increase taxes, making life miserable for the people. People complained everywhere, and they paid taxes but could not fill their stomachs. If they did not pay taxes, they would be treated as aliens and beheaded.
Only the second prince neither farmed nor increased taxes. Instead, he ordered his soldiers to mine vigorously.
After reading it, Ji Xiaowu frowned. "The Fourth Prince has begun to recuperate, but the Prime Minister..."
"There will definitely be a large number of refugees pouring out of the main city..." Fang Chen and Ji Xiaomu said in unison.
"When the refugees had nowhere to go, he spread the news. Now a large number of refugees are coming to Heyang City." Fang Chen took out the latest news and said.
Fang Chen was worried. If refugees came, should they open the gate or not?
If it is opened, the influx of refugees will be difficult to manage and may very likely destroy the original peace of Heyang City.
No, he couldn't watch the refugees starve to death at the gate of Heyang City, just like they couldn't bear to see the Fourth Prince's soldiers starve to death.
