Chapter 121: Temporary Reign

Han Xiu was already injured and had lost a lot of blood. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Now, when I heard the advice of the ministers, I was even more angry and retrograde, and I fainted all of a sudden.

"Your Majesty! Emperor! The little eunuchs exclaimed, and ran around in fright.

However, Liu Quan was quite calm, and immediately ordered: "You, go and pass the imperial doctor!" You two, go and get the queen here! The others watched the gate and didn't let anyone in! ”

Don't let anyone in, lest anyone take advantage of the opportunity.

The emperor fainted, and the ministers who were kneeling outside the Zhengyang Hall naturally needed someone to preside over the overall situation.

And this man ...... Liu Quan knew that the emperor didn't like the queen very much. But now that the matter is urgent, he really can't think of anyone other than the queen who can deal with the situation in front of him.

In case the emperor can't wake up......

"Phew!" Liu Quan slapped himself hard. The emperor will definitely wake up, he is just a shoulder injury, and he will definitely wake up.

……

"Niangniang, the little noble son of Zhengyang Hall is here. said that the emperor suddenly fainted, and Gonggong Liu asked him to invite you......" Cai Wei walked in quickly, lowered her head and said.

Looking at the appearance of the little nobleman, he seemed to be a little flustered, afraid that there was a problem in the Zhengyang Palace.

Shi Jiao'e was silent for a moment, but she still endured the exhaustion all over her body, sat up and said, "Change the clothes of the palace." ”

"Comb your hair in a more solemn bun." She thought for a moment and added.

Shi Jiao'e didn't know that Han Xiu was injured, after all, Yu Linwei was searching around the palace, and the entire inner palace was being stirred up by chickens and dogs, and even her Zhaoyang Hall was not spared.

Later, the civil and military officials entered the palace to ask for a meeting, and she also received the news here.

It's just that she was busy outside for a day, and she finally managed to deal with the problem of food, and she was really tired and didn't want to join in the excitement at all.

Moreover, Han Xiu only became a new concubine today, and I am afraid that I want the newcomer to serve more than I want to see her old face.

"Fainted? It can't be pretended, right? Shi Jiao'e muttered to herself. People like Han Xiu have so many ghost thoughts, could it be that they are planning something by the introduction of injury?

……

When Shi Jiao'e came to Zhengyang Palace, the number of ministers outside the hall increased.

This time, when I heard that the emperor was injured and in a coma, many people couldn't sit still and came to inquire about the situation.

Seeing Shi Jiao'e coming, everyone who was still whispering suddenly quieted down. However, it only took four or five breaths before everyone began to gossip.

"Queen Mother, what about disaster relief? Where is the food going? With so many victims, if they had been left outside the city, they would have rebelled in a few days. It was the Minister of Rites who spoke, and the questions he asked also represented the voices of the majority.

"The palace has contacted the grain merchants in the capital and can provide porridge and rice for at least a month. However, the victims outside the city need to go to work in Zhuangzi to help with the early summer harvest. ”

Shi Jiao'e didn't even frown, and dropped a bombshell in an instant.

Oh, the problem of food, she has solved it.

The hundreds of officials in the court have been worried for several days, and they quarreled in the court, as if they were in great trouble, and they had no way to start, and the problems that could not be dealt with were solved by the queen with a word.

The civil and military officials were stunned, and some couldn't believe their ears.

Solved? Actually solved?

Those grain merchants in the capital who were desperate for the door actually promised to donate a month's worth of grain to the disaster victims? Moreover, in addition to asking the victims to help collect it, they did not even ask to sell themselves into slavery.

When did those grain merchants become so kind? So easy to talk to?

It's unbelievable.

"Queen, what about a month from now? What do these victims eat and drink? Do you want to wait for the court to collect taxes and have the court support them? ”

However, it is only summer, and there is still a whole year to go until the summer harvest tomorrow in August. The grain merchant can provide a month's worth of porridge and rice, but what about after a month? What do the victims want to eat?

And what about the hardest winter? And where do you get the food?

"Three years ago, under the leadership of Shi Shoufu, the Ministry of Industry began to study the cultivation method of autumn rice. Last year, on the Zhuangzi of the main palace, the autumn rice was finally successfully planted. ”

"The palace made an agreement with the grain merchants that as long as the summer grain harvest is over, the imperial court will send someone to teach them to plant autumn rice. Within three years, half of the harvest of autumn rice needed to be handed over to the imperial court as a tax. ”

Shi Jiao'e spoke without hurry, but every word was tenacious and powerful.

After she came back today, she originally planned to inform Han Xiu. However, she sent someone to Zhengyang Hall to spread the word, but she learned that the emperor was very busy, very busy, and he was so busy that he didn't have time to listen to her at all, only time to meet Concubine Lan by chance, and time to give Concubine Lan a decree to confer concubines......

"The minister invites the queen to summon Shi Shoufu to come back to deal with the government." There are ministers who still don't give up.

When Shi Shoufu was there, the government was always handled in an orderly manner, each department performed its own duties, and all functions were running well. How can there be such chaos today?

"The minister invites the queen to summon Shi Shoufu back to preside over the government." Someone followed.

"This palace will go first to see the emperor," Shi Jiao'e bypassed everyone, "This palace promises you to invite Shi Shoufu early tomorrow morning." However, if Shi Shoufu refuses to come, the palace will temporarily take over the government. ”

Shi Jiao'e threw another heavy bomb, and then, regardless of the uproar she caused, she raised her feet and entered the main hall of Zhengyang Palace.

"How is the emperor?" She sat on the edge of the bed expressionlessly, looking at Liu Quan, without the slightest emotion in her eyes.

"The emperor injured his shoulder, but because of excessive blood loss, he suddenly fell unconscious. The doctor came to see it and said that he needed to stay in bed for a few days, and there was no major problem. Liu Quan changed his attitude and was unusually respectful to Shi Jiao'e.

He understood this time that if something happened to the emperor, only the queen would be able to succeed him. The queen can support the second prince to ascend the throne as the emperor, and then take advantage of the young age of the second prince to preside over the government herself.

Even, Shi Jiao'e killed Han Xiu now......

Liu Quan shook his head violently and shook out the thoughts that he shouldn't have.

He is the emperor's confidant and the eunuch supervisor around the emperor. If something really happens to the emperor, his status will also plummet. He doesn't want anything to happen to the emperor!

"You send someone to inform Yu Linwei that when the ministers leave the palace for a while, they must be strictly examined, and don't let go of a suspicious person. In addition, if you find Lu Dong, the king of Liang, you can kill him on the spot. Shi Jiao'e's gaze paused for a moment on Han Xiu's face, and suddenly commanded.

A small assassin, who is still an acquaintance of Yu Linwei, has not found anyone until now!

Is Yu Linwei incompetent, or is someone in Yu Linwei defecting and deliberately helping Lu Dong cover up his tracks?
