Daqian Dynasty, in the imperial city of Luoyang.

Many powerful forces have already arrived.

"Eunuch Wang, this is the imperial capital of the Daqian Dynasty. The dragon energy here is a hundred times more intense than it was back then, and far more intense than what the Imperial Astronomical Observatory calculated..."

The leader had gray hair and was dressed in plain clothes, looking ordinary. A hint of deep fear flashed in his eyes on his old face.

"Such a rich dragon energy, even the Ye family ancestor before he ascended to heaven could not have achieved it. It is really strange..."

Wang Jingzhong raised his head and saw the streets bustling with people. Golden notices were posted everywhere, and gorgeous flowers were hung on both sides of the road.

"We've had people from the Imperial Observatory secretly go around the palace to speculate. The sudden surge of dragon energy within Daqian is incredibly strange, and it coincides with that woman's wedding. I have a feeling there's a connection between the two. Perhaps that Emperor isn't a simple person..."

"I obey your orders."

After his men left, the old eunuch found a place to sit down and listened to the conversation of the people around him.

It was exactly the same as the news they had found out. Ye Qinglian's emperor was suddenly appointed, and even the etiquette was violated in order to appoint him as the emperor. The dynasties in the world care about etiquette the most. This move is equivalent to throwing the face of the Ye family royal family to the ground, especially if this emperor is not a genius.

Why else could Ye Qinglian be so impulsive?

The surge of dragon energy is related to him?

No matter what.

He came to the Daqian Dynasty.

After confirming the news, he will go to the Daqian Dynasty in person.

The Emperor can be killed, and must be killed.

But for the Empress, it depends on the situation.

If the dragon energy comes from the empress, she must be killed, but if not, in order to maintain the current situation of the five dynasties, her cultivation can only be abolished.

After all, killing this empress is equivalent to telling the other countries that they are going to unify the world, but the Great Zhou has not yet reached the point where it can defeat the combined forces of the four major dynasties.

If he is killed, the four dynasties will inevitably join forces, which will cause great trouble. But if he is not killed, even if the Daqian Dynasty fights to the death, it can be destroyed with a little trick and stability can be maintained.

Wang Jingzhong suddenly realized something, raised his eyes slightly, and looked at the extremely large team not far away.

"The Luohen Dynasty actually sent so many people? Haha, it seems they have bad intentions..."

The old eunuch already had a plan in mind and stared closely at the face of the leader.

The aura on his body soon became the same as that of the people sent by Luohen Dynasty, and he also had a human skin mask in his hand.

The old eunuch simply accepted it, narrowed his eyes slightly, and was in a very good mood.

The four great dynasties had already gathered in the imperial capital Luoyang.

Some people came with bad intentions, while others were interested in forming an alliance and saw this opportunity.

Everyone is waiting, waiting for the right opportunity to come up with their own price and means.

Another five days passed quickly.

Inside the imperial palace, in Mingde Hall.

Prime Minister Qiu Zun was stunned when he saw Chu Ning also appear in Mingde Hall, but he quickly remembered Ye Qinglian's previous arrangement.

The two of them jointly governed the country. His Majesty was actually not joking...

Forget it, it’s your Majesty’s world, you can do whatever you want. Anyway, your Majesty has the cultivation level, so you are not afraid that Chu Ning will seek power and usurp the throne.

"This old minister pays homage to Your Majesty, to the Emperor."

Chu Ning on the side smiled and waved his hand.

"There are still ten days left. The wedding hasn't happened yet. Only after the wedding can he become the Emperor."

Ye Qinglian glared at Chu Ning in dissatisfaction.

The Prime Minister is here to see you according to the rules, so you don't need to say anything more.

The old man smiled and said, "Your Majesty has issued the decree, and he personally promised you the title of Emperor. There is nothing wrong with this old minister calling you Emperor."

"What do you want to see me about?"

Ye Qinglian thought it would be better to change the subject and spoke lightly.

When the old man heard this, his face was filled with excitement!

"Your Majesty is a man of foresight. I, an old minister, only now realize the extent of your majesty's tactics. Truly a masterpiece!"

Ye Qinglian frowned, somewhat puzzled.

"what happened?"

She didn't seem to have done anything in the past few days, so why did she become so far-sighted?

Qiu Zun took out the memorial tremblingly and handed it over.

"This is an urgent memorial sent today from Jiangnan. It describes the current situation in Jiangnan!"

"Three days ago, tens of thousands of passenger ships were sending nearly 30 million kilograms of grain to Jiangnan for sale, but the government immediately chained them across the river!"

"The local gentry couldn't afford to buy, and the merchants couldn't leave, so the government opened the granaries and released the grain!"

"Those merchants couldn't sit still anymore, and they started selling off their stocks in the early hours of last night. The price of the two companies dropped from 50 taels per stone to 800 wen per stone, a drop of dozens of times, and the price is still plummeting!"

Ye Qinglian was stunned when she heard this, and immediately opened the memorial, staring at the words on it.

On top of that, not only were there merchants selling off grain as Qiu Zun mentioned, but even the local gentry could not hold back and continued to sell off grain at daybreak.

It is estimated that the price of grain in Jiangnan will drop to around one hundred wen, which is lower than the previous grain price!

The government planned to start purchasing grain when the price of grain fell to the lowest point and use it to provide relief to the victims.

Thirteen days!

It has only been thirteen days since Chu Ning wrote the countermeasures!

The price of grain in Jiangnan was even pushed down to a level lower than before!

Qiu Zun was overjoyed and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, this move was something I didn't understand before. Why didn't you open the granaries to release the grain? Local officials also had many complaints. But now that the dust has settled, everything has come to light!"

"Some of the Jiangnan gentry even spent their fortunes to buy grain at exorbitant prices, hoping to make more money. However, they had no idea that they had already become pawns in the hands of His Majesty. Now, there are reports that many Jiangnan gentry have committed suicide by hanging at home."

"Your Majesty's move this time is truly a stroke of genius. I, your humble servant, congratulate Your Majesty. The disaster in Jiangnan has been averted!"

Ye Qinglian took a deep breath, feeling extremely excited, and immediately started writing.

The Ministry of Revenue was dispatched to mobilize money from the national treasury to Jiangnan to help the local people rebuild, and monks were also dispatched to help.

Send more people to arrest the local gentry in Jiangnan. Anyone involved in raising grain prices will be thoroughly investigated from bottom to top. If there are people in the court involved, they will all be executed!

I've been holding in the anger for so long, and now I can finally let it out!

These damn profiteers have raised the price of grain by hundreds of times. If they are not completely eliminated, it will be difficult for her to vent her anger!

If there had not been such actions, the grain prices in Jiangnan would have increased by two or three times at most, and so many people would not have died!

The long-accumulated haze has completely dissipated at this moment, and this stroke will surely become Ye Qinglian's last stroke recorded in history books.

Qiu Zun bowed and retreated, taking the memorial with him and going to carry out the execution.

Now, it’s coming to an end.

All the troubles have been solved, and it’s time to welcome her wedding!

After the old man left, Ye Qinglian looked at Chu Ning beside him.

She originally thought that Chu Ning would say something at this moment, looking for an excuse to take advantage of this matter or something, but she did not see any change in Chu Ning's expression. He just sat there reading a book.

Ye Qinglian asked doubtfully, "You didn't hear what Mr. Qiu said just now. Aren't you unhappy?"

Chu Ning raised his head and closed the book.

"I had anticipated this, but I didn't expect it to be this fast. I thought it would take a month or two, but it only took thirteen days..."

"Is your water transportation so fast?"

Ye Qinglian was a little overwhelmed by this scene.

No, you really don't know what you did?

Or do you think I've taken the fame that belongs to you?

"The trouble in Jiangnan has been resolved."

She reiterated it again, fearing that Chu Ning hadn't heard it.

"Yeah, I heard that."

Ye Qinglian's heart sank.

I am really dissatisfied...
