Happy Emperor

Inner hall of Ji Mansion.

Ji Feng's face was solemn, and his complexion was as pale as pig liver.

The servants knelt on the ground, not daring to even breathe.

Noisy shouting and cursing could be faintly heard from outside.

"Trash, a bunch of trash!"

Ji Feng slammed the teacup to the ground and cursed.

"Who told you to return to the Ji family? And bring back so many refugees?"

None of the people kneeling on the ground dared to hide, they just buried their heads lower.

Each of them pretended to be a quail.

In fact, they felt aggrieved. Who would have thought that someone would buy grain at ten taels per dou?

Moreover, it was the army that came to buy the rice. After they ran out of rice to sell, they still insisted on coming here.

Who among them dares to say 'no'?

Seeing this, Ji Feng became even angrier. His old face turned red and he paced around the room.

He didn't expect that the decisive game he and Baturin designed together would backfire on him.

If he is not handled properly, these angry people will eat him alive!

"Master, master!"

Just as Ji Feng was about to give another lecture, a servant ran in panting.

Ji Feng immediately asked the person who came, "Is it Ji Qiang who brought back the food?"

"No, it's Manager Wang." The servant swallowed and replied in a low voice.

"Why are you so excited about him coming back?"

"Master, Manager Wang brought an official and shouted at the door that he wanted to see you." The servant said timidly.

"Who wants to see me? Is it someone from Batu's family?" Ji Feng asked hurriedly.

He had sent people to look for Ji Qiang a long time ago, but he could not get in touch with him.

Now we can only hope that Batu’s family can transfer food from the two provinces to overcome the difficulties.

"No... don't know."

"Trash, it's all trash!"

Ji Feng didn't have the energy to care about these people and went straight to the gate of the mansion.

After a while.

Ji Feng came to the door.

The rumbling footsteps and shouting outside made him tremble with fear.

He never thought that these people who usually allowed him to bully would now be like a flood and a beast.

"Rebellion! These refugees are going to rebel!" Ji Feng bravely cursed viciously.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Then a rough man's voice was heard shouting.

"Open the door. I'm here to speak with Master Ji Feng on the orders of Master Lin, the Minister of War."

The person knocking on the door was the burly man.

The Ji family servants who were blocking the door all looked at Ji Feng at the same time.

Ji Feng didn't say anything, just shook his head slightly.

He always felt that the voice sounded familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember who this person was.

"Open the door, or I'll pee at your door!" the big man outside the door shouted again.

Seeing that no one answered, the big man took off his pants in anger.

Ji Feng inside the door felt that the voice was more and more familiar, but he just couldn't remember it.

So he squatted on the ground and looked out through the crack at the bottom of the door.

As soon as he put his eyes closer, a hot stream of liquid rushed in through the crack in the door and poured right into his mouth.

"I've been getting angry lately!"

The big man at the door held the "giant object" in his hand, looked at the yellow "water column", and muttered to himself.

"vomit!"

Ji Feng took a full gulp of the liquid and squatted aside to vomit.

Seeing this, the servants around had strange expressions on their faces and tried hard to suppress their laughter.

At this moment, Ji Feng finally knew who the visitor was.

Huang Tianba is a notorious ruffian in the Imperial Army Commander's Office.

However, this man is very powerful, good at leading troops, and very loyal.

"Huang Tianba, how dare you relieve yourself in front of this old man?"

Ji Feng stood up and opened the door with a bang.

When he saw the refugees pouring in like a tide outside the door, his anger subsided a little.

"Master Ji, why is your mouth so yellow? Are you angry?"

Huang Tianba saw that the person who opened the door was Ji Feng, and asked with concern with a puzzled look on his face.

"You...you." Ji Feng was trembling with fear at Huang Tian's domineering hands, and couldn't utter a word.

"Oh, what's that smell?" Huang Tianba frowned and took two steps back with a look of disgust.

"Huang Tianba, did you bring all these refugees here?" Ji Feng asked angrily.

"I now order you to take this person away from the Ji Mansion as soon as possible!"

"It's unfair! How could I have that ability?" Huang Tianba lied with his eyes open, his face calm and his heart steady.

"These people came to Lord Ji's house to buy food."

"Look, Master Ji, I have brought all the silver."

"I have no food to sell, get out!" Ji Feng cursed with gritted teeth.

"Master Ji, it's no use telling me." Huang Tianba showed an indifferent expression, "Go and tell these people."

"Your subordinate can take your men and leave now!"

With that, Huang Tianba turned around and pretended to leave.

"Don't, don't go!"

Ji Feng hurriedly stopped Huang Tianba.

If he left now, these refugees would probably rush into Ji Mansion immediately.

"Oh? Can we talk again? Master Ji!"

Huang Tianba himself is a person who hates evil.

When he learned that Ji Feng and Baturin were the culprits of the famine, he hated these old bastards to the core.

"Tell me, what does Lin Hua want to say to me?"

"Lord Lin asked me to tell you that you can forget about the food you sent to Ji Qiang. It's definitely not possible to ship it back to Shengjing.

"Also, if you don't want everyone in the Ji family to die because of you, go to the palace and see His Majesty now."

Huang Tianba lowered his voice as much as possible and spoke into Ji Feng's ear while enduring the stench.

After saying this, he didn't wait for Ji Feng to react.

He shouted loudly to the refugees behind him: "Master Ji said that the grain will be sold at noon, so everyone should be patient."

"You...I didn't say...you are..."

"Shh!" Huang Tianba made a silencing gesture to Ji Feng.

"Master Ji, I'm helping you. Do you want them to rush in now?"

Ji Feng's eyes widened and he gritted his teeth and swallowed his words back.

"Think about it carefully. I'm waiting for your reply here."

Huang Tianba was unusually polite.

Ji Feng didn't waste any more words and closed the door with a bang.

He walked towards the inner room in a daze.

He still couldn't believe it.

In less than a few dozen days, he went from being the absolute leader of Shengjing to the miserable state he is in now.

After the door closed, Huang Tianba outside let out a long sigh.

So far, he has completed 90 percent of his mission.

Xiao Wu, who was beside him, was a little confused and asked Huang Tianba, "Sir, why were you so polite to Ji Feng in the end?"

"You're being rude to someone who's about to die? Be careful, or he'll come after you as a ghost!"

After saying this, Huang Tianba found a shady place and closed his eyes again.
