In the East Palace, Sima Lie finally invited Nie Yunyang out, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief, but the knock outside the door made the muscles of his whole body tense. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Didn't you just leave? Why did you come back again?

Since the last time he had a skin-to-skin relationship with Nie Yunyang, Nie Yunyang has become more and more sticky, and when he sees the sky, he runs to Sima Lie, personally delivering food and drink every day, not to mention, and untying his clothes himself.

Completely ignoring Sima Lie's gloomy face, he was doing his own thing with a smile, Sima Lie had no experience in dealing with such things, he couldn't beat him, and he couldn't scold and scold. It's like kraft candy.

"Didn't you go back first, why did you come back again?" Sima Lie said angrily.

Xiao Se pushed the door in and said in a low voice, "There is a secret letter." ”

Sima Lie suddenly came to his senses, and his originally drooping eyelids immediately became energetic, and he said with a smile: "Hers?"

Xiao Se nodded and said, "Yin Yi sent it, it should be." ”

Sima Lie rolled his eyes, and secretly said that you are so inflexible because of your good skin? I really don't know what Yun Yu likes about this kid, and he circles around him all day long.

When I opened the letter, I was greeted by the familiar handwriting, and after reading it in a few words, Sima Lie's expression changed from the joy of getting the letter to a solemn face.

Wan'er will never do things without purpose, since she mentioned the people's livelihood in her letter, she naturally has her reasons. In fact, he himself has recently noticed something strange, the drought of the previous year was personally led by his troops to deal with it, it can be said that he was quite emotional, it is no exaggeration to say that all the bark and weeds that can be eaten have been dug up cleanly, and there are many people who sell children and wives. Countless people died of starvation. It's hell on earth.

The year before last, he went to disaster relief to treat the symptoms but not the root cause, which can solve the urgent need, but it cannot be solved once and for all, and there is an insect plague this year, it can be imagined that the people's year is not good.

It's just that in the twists and turns presented from all over the country, all the grains are abundant, and there is plenty of food and clothing. A scene of national peace and security.

Sima Lie couldn't help but be frightened, if it was really as Ye Juan guessed, if he didn't perish in silence, he would explode in silence. If this matter is not properly handled, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future.

People's livelihood is the foundation of the country. If the people are not able to make a living, they are only afraid of internal turmoil in Izumo. Outside, there is the southern frontier, and the northern desert is surrounded by the side. There are also those who accidentally destroy the country.

The truth that water can carry a boat and can also capsize a boat. He understands, why don't those who are parents and officials not understand? Is it true that the top flower feather is better than the peace and contentment of millions of people?

"Xiao Se, immediately summoned Nie Xiang and several Shangshu lords into the palace to discuss matters. Sima Lie commanded in a deep voice.

Before these first few adults entered the palace, there were urgent reports from various state capitals into the East Palace, and Sima Lie read all the urgent reports with a gloomy face, all of which were riots by displaced people in the state capital, burning, killing and looting, and asking for support from the imperial court.

Sima Lie's fist slammed the table, what did he do earlier? What's the use of coming to ask for help when it's the last day? Now the people's hearts have been lost.

If it weren't for the fact that these dog officials were greedy for political achievements and lied about the disaster, why would they be so passive. If things were dealt with early, where would they have gotten to this point?

"Your Majesty, please give peace to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."

Sima Lie didn't answer, threw the urgent report in front of several people, and said coldly: "Please tell this palace, how to deal with this matter?"

Several Shangshu lords looked at Nie Zhongguo in surprise, looking like he was looking forward to Nie Xiangma, he is now the prince's father-in-law, and he still has some face.

Nie Zhongguo picked up the letters one by one, looked at them carefully, and then circulated them to several other people. After everyone finished reading it, they were all speechless.

"What's the matter, you're dumb at this time?" Sima Lie yelled in displeasure.

Nie Zhongguo smiled and arched his hand: "It's just a group of people, I'm out of a big country, and I just send some soldiers to suppress it." ”

Several other people hurriedly echoed: "What Nie Xiang said is very true. ”

Sima Lie looked at everyone coldly: "A spark can start a prairie fire." At present, urgent reports have been received from five state capitals, and more urgent reports will be sent to Beijing in the next three days. Nie Xiang thinks, is it going to slaughter all my people in Izumo and make my father a real loner?"

"The lower officials don't dare. Nie Zhongguo didn't expect Sima Lie to be so faceless, so he directly sarcastically said something sarcastic, so he saluted respectfully.

"If you don't dare, hurry up and think of some practical ways to deal with it. Instead of saying something that doesn't hurt or hurt, send troops to suppress it. Sima Lie replied coldly.

"In addition, now is a special period, this palace doesn't want to see someone gag and make mistakes, and I don't want to see someone fill their pockets, otherwise don't blame this palace for being ruthless. ”

Several adults bowed down, fine beads of sweat oozed from their foreheads, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was really young and vigorous, and he didn't know the doorways in the officialdom, and now there were constant uprisings everywhere, not because of three or two days, but because of the ills accumulated over the years.

Although Sima Chu was still unable to move, his spirit was slightly better, and his face was a little bloody.

"Your Majesty, you see what the old slave said is right, in the past, you were worried that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was too young, and he was only afraid that there would be omissions in handling state affairs, but now it seems that Your Majesty is too worried, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is doing things very safely. Gonggong Li said with a smile while waiting for Sima Chu to drink the medicine.

Sima Chu's face was also full of smiles, indeed Sima Lie did a good job, better than he imagined.

As he spoke, a shadow's anxious voice came, "Your Majesty, it's not good. Riots have taken place in many state capitals. Several states and counties have now been occupied by the Diao people. ”

Sima Chu's heart shook, a tingling pain in his chest, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and then he lay straight on the bed, his breath was weak, his eyes were wide open, and his lips were pursing.

Seeing that Sima Chu's condition was not good, Gonggong Li hurriedly called the imperial doctor in, and sent someone to inform the queen mother, His Royal Highness the Prince.

Sima Lie was following several adults to discuss the settlement of the peasant rebellion, and after several discussions, he felt that he had to make two preparations, on the one hand, he resolutely could not let go of those who took advantage of the exposure to fish in troubled waters and waited for the opportunity to agitate. On the other hand, the Ministry of Household Affairs will take the lead in organizing disaster relief, and everything must be put in place to help the peasants spend this New Year, so as to re-establish the image of the imperial court and build the people's confidence and trust in the imperial court.

As for the border areas, they should also strengthen their defenses to prevent enemy countries from taking advantage of the situation.

Nie Zhongguo added: "If it is a last resort, the development of the situation is beyond the scope of control, and I ask Your Highness not to be kind to the woman." The truth of killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, presumably His Royal Highness also knows that iron-blooded suppression may not be a good thing. Quickly quell civil strife at minimal cost. ”

Sima Lie was thinking about how to deal with Nie Zhongguo's words, when he saw a little eunuch stumbling in outside, crying and mourning: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, Your Majesty is afraid that it is not good." Please go quickly, Your Highness..."

Sima Lie's heart sank, and he got up and went to the Heart Cultivation Palace.
