Chapter 197 : 这小麦并不是她的

[This wheat is not hers at all.]

Even her commissary and the palace maid who made milk tea were all replaced with her people.

“This Concubine Yao has gone too far! She’s clearly coming to steal the credit.” Yin Shuang said with a puff of anger.

Other people might not know where the seeds for the hundred acres of wheat came from, but she knows!

It was something that she and her Niang Niang had painstakingly planted in February!

There was a drought, and it didn’t rain for months on end, so it was she and her Niang Niang who picked water from the river and watered it in buckets.

Only then did they grow two acres of wheat!

And then the seeds for the hundred acres of land!

Everyone knows how important this wheat is to the Dong Lan Kingdom.

Whoever can grow wheat will be able to benefit many people, be respected and loved by the people, and even be written down in history and be remembered for thousands of years!

Now it’s good that Yao Fei saw this benefit and took advantage of Lu Yunluo’s absence and directly ran to the Cold Palace to grab the credit!

Isn’t this bullying people?

Sister Zhou hurried in from outside at this time.

“Your Highness, Concubine Yao is now handing out silver rewards to the eunuchs and palace maids who have finished their work in the field. This old slave just asked, and it seems like there are five taels of silver for one person.”

Sister Zhou had a worried look on her face.

This Concubine Yao had come with a vengeance, and it looked like she was coming for the wheat in the field.

Right now, it was also giving out rewards of silver to those who did the work. Presumably, it was trying to bribe all of the people who did the work in the Cold Palace ah.

Lu Yunluo frowned.

Consort Yao’s step was indeed well thought out.

If other things are still good.

But only this cold palace’s wheat, she can not take the decision. 

First of all, this Cold Palace was not her land.

There are many deserted palaces here.

If she could live here, the other concubines, naturally, could as well.

Secondly, although this wheat was taken out from her space and then also planted by her.

But this wheat is not hers.

Rather, it was the palace’s! 

It’s Emperor’s!

It’s the people of Dong Lan Kingdom!

Consort Yao used her absence from the Cold Palace as an excuse to enter the Cold Palace to take over the planting of wheat, which was also allowed by the Empress Dowager.

Even though she was not willing and even if she reported it to the Emperor, making a fuss over it in court, it is also not reasonable.

Right now, although she had returned, if there was no word from the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, she really didn’t have the right to kick Consort Yao out.

“Your Highness, there is one more thing.”

“Speak.” Lu Yunluo sat down and took a sip of the tea Yin Shuang had just made.

“After Noble Yao replaced all the people in the kiosk with her own people, she has now discontinued the cold drinks, saying that the stones used to make the ice are from the palace and can’t be used any more, moreover the stone used to make the ice on the hillside has now been kept away from people.”

Sister Zhou’s face was very ugly (in a very bad mood). 

The method of using that kind of stone to make ice that was also discovered by the Empress Dowager first, and was originally only known to those who did work in the Cold Palace, but now it’s good that not only was this method known by Concubine Yao, but she also used this method to plot against Niang Niang. 

It’s clear that it’s intentional.

“Let her go.” Lu Yunluo proceeded to drink tea.

It was cold anyway, and cold drinks weren’t selling well now.

“Your Highness, you’re not angry?” Yin Shuang was shivering with anger on the side, then she looked at her Niang Niang, still calmly sitting there and drinking tea? 

Lu Yunluo smiled faintly, “It’s useless to be angry.”

This Consort Yao she had come into contact with a few times, she is a person with a meticulous mind.

Without a certain amount of certainty, she easily wouldn’t make a move.

If she guessed correctly, it was very likely that Consort Yao’s move was deliberately provoking her.

Only to make her angry and furious. 

It would be best to make it a big mess again. 

No matter what the cause was, she would definitely end up getting involved in the matter of the wheat.

When the time comes, it would directly rise to a major event that concerned the people and the country.
