Zhao Gao didn't know what happened, but he was a little surprised by Fusu's attitude.

Usually in the palace, I was very respectful to Fusu, and he was polite to me. This was the first time that he was treated like this, which made it difficult for Zhao Gao not to think too much.

However, he didn't show it on his face, he just bowed respectfully towards Fusu, looking very humble.

"Young Master has been in jail for many days, and I haven't come to visit him for a long time. Today I thought of coming to see you."

No one here would believe this, not to mention that the location of Xianyang Prison was relatively remote, and Fusu's treatment in the prison did not look like he was suffering.

Looking at the decoration inside, it seems that everyone is enjoying life.

Although it is not as free as the outside, the decoration in this prison is much better than that of the people outside.

Ran Fang, on the other hand, saw Fusu so angry for the first time, with a smile on his lips, which made people look at him more.

But no one present appreciated it, Fusu's attention was all on Zhao Gao at the moment.

He obviously didn't believe Zhao Gao's words and stared at Zhao Gao closely, as if he wanted to see the essence through his eyes.

"Is there nothing else?"

Even if Fusu's attitude was bad, the smile on Zhao Gao's face never disappeared, and Fusu's eyes seemed to be looking at a junior who was having a bad temper.

Zhao Gao didn't take it seriously, but glanced at the silk on the table, a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.

"Mo family?"

"The Mohist family is now in decline, but they still seek advice from Sir?"

"Sir, don't pay attention to these people. They are just bluffing."

These words were directed towards Ran Fang, but the look in his eyes always gave people an unreal feeling.

And Ran Fang was also a little surprised. How did Zhao Gao see the content on the silk from such a long distance?

How did Ran Fang know that this was a skill that Zhao Gao had honed by serving Ying Zheng for many years?

After all, how could he just look at the things in Ying Zheng's hands?

Seeing this, Fusu said, "Sir, you don't need others to interfere at will."

"What brings you here?"

From the tone of his words, it was clear that Fusu didn't want to see the person in front of him.

Ran Fang was a little confused. This was the first time that he saw Fusu hate a person so much, and his eyes looked at Zhao Gao with some scrutiny.

Zhao Gao, on the other hand, didn't take Ran Fang seriously at all and said casually: "Sir, I am a person close to Mr. Su's father and I watched him grow up."

"However, he is not very close to me."

"But the second son of the Su family has a good relationship with me."

"This time, I also followed the Second Young Master's request to come over and see how he is doing."

When Hu Hai was mentioned, the expression on Fusu's face did not change much, but his eyes flickered. Unexpectedly, Hu Hai was still thinking about him.

This was somewhat unexpected to him, and his tone softened a lot.

"What about him?"

"Why don't you come here in person?"

Zhao Gao smiled faintly and said, "I made your father angry a few days ago and was scolded. I don't like to go out when I'm in a bad mood."

"In the past few days, he said that he was going to start a career and impress your father when he came back. He left Xianyang City today."

The two of them nodded so as not to worry that Ran Fang would hear it, and they said it so blatantly.

After Zhao Gao finished speaking, Fusu also remembered that Xu Yuwen had told him that Hu Hai had personally handled the Sishui County disaster relief matter.

When he thought of this, he suddenly became nervous. What Zhao Gao said was too obvious.

He took a careful look at Ran Fang to make sure that he had not guessed their identities, and felt relieved.

He pretended to have just heard about it and nodded, "It's also a good thing to go out and practice."

"I wonder where he is going?"

This question made Zhao Gao guess a little, did Fusu really not know or was he pretending not to know?

The reason he came here this time was to tell Fusu that His Majesty was beginning to pay attention to Hu Hai, which gave him a sense of urgency. It would be best to do something extraordinary to compete for His Majesty's affection.

However, looking at him like this, Fusu doesn't have to worry about anything in prison.

This is not possible!

He looked into Fusu's eyes and said word by word: "Si, Shui, County."

Upon hearing this place name, a flash of understanding flashed across Fusu's face, and then a look of worry appeared.

"Sishui County is currently experiencing floods. Why do you want to go here now?"

"He is too reckless!"

While speaking, he glanced at Ran Fang again, and saw that Ran Fang still had the same calm and calm expression, and he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the secret was not revealed yet.

But Ran Fang secretly shook his head at this moment.

This really means you don’t regard yourself as an outsider.

As far as he knew, Daqin's management was very strict nowadays, especially the household registration system. It was simply impossible for ordinary people to leave Guandong at will, let alone go to Surabaya County that far away.

If Fusu's brother really went out, it only shows that the Su family's status in Xianyang City is indeed not low.

Otherwise, those people would not come to Xianyang Prison one after another just to take a look at Fusu.

It was by no means as simple as what they said. There must be something else hidden from him. He couldn't guess what it was about.

I have to say that Ran Fang's guess was accurate, but there were some deviations.

Fusu, on the other hand, was still secretly glad in his heart. He really didn't expect that Ran Fang, who was usually very familiar with the affairs of the court, would be deceived by his few words.

Zhao Gao didn't know what Fusu was thinking. Seeing Fusu's behavior, he really thought he was worried about Hu Hai.

In this way, he felt relieved, which showed that Fusu's information was indeed restricted in prison.

"Alas, Young Master doesn't know something." He sighed deeply, glanced at Fusu, then looked at Ran Fang, and then said, "The situation in the DPRK is changing now. If you want to be in Xianyang City, To gain a foothold, we have to think of other ways.”

These words made Ran Fang and Fusu raise their heads at the same time. They both looked at him, as if they didn't understand what he meant.

Fusu said, "What does this mean?"

Upon hearing his question, Zhao Gao immediately put on a panicked expression, but if he looked carefully, he could see that his worry was not visible.

"I don't blame the young master for not worrying about things at home. The young master is in jail, so it is inevitable that he is a little powerless."

"Some time ago, the army set off to the old Chu land, and now there are frequent floods in Sishui County. There are places where grain and grass are used everywhere, but this year's agricultural production is not much, which affects our family's industry."

"If this matter is allowed to develop, how will the family's business be run?"

"Now that the imperial court specializes in official salt, if it controls official food in the future, the family's business will be completely out of business. What should we do?"

As he spoke, Zhao Gao lowered his head heavily, looking completely worried about the family business.

No one knew that, seeing Fusu's worried expression, he was about to laugh in his heart at this moment.

Now that Hu Hai is gone, he just wants to find something for Fusu to do and buy time for Hu Hai to provide disaster relief. He cannot let Fusu have time to talk about corruption with Ran Fang.

He knew that this matter would reach His Majesty's ears, and then His Majesty would also investigate the matter of food and grass, so that their attention would be diverted.

Coupled with Feng Quji's help, this corruption matter will be resolved as quickly as possible without affecting him at all.

If he hadn't embezzled too much at the beginning, he would never worry about these things now.

Just when he was proud of his wit, he heard Ran Fang, who had been silent until now, speak.

"Food is a major issue for people's livelihood, and it is not difficult to solve it."
