Chapter 855_1

Early the next morning, Gong Qinghua personally led a group to the suburbs to transport the grain from two granaries back to the city.

He was heartbroken. Handing over this grain meant his years-long plans were suddenly ruined, but the fear of the Emperor's suspicion and rejection was even more terrible.

In order to demonstrate his loyalty, he had no choice but to transport the grain early in the morning.

The rising sun had not been aloft long when the granary doors were knocked upon.

Upon hearing the noise outside, hundreds of wolfdogs ran swiftly in the direction of the entrance, barking as they did.

Seeing that it was Gong Qinghua who had arrived, the granary manager hurriedly stopped the wolfdogs, then opened the gate and respectfully greeted Gong Qinghua, "Your Lordship."

Gong Qinghua nodded his head and entered, "Bring out all the rice and load it onto the carriages."

Gong Qinghua pointed towards the caravan that had followed him.
