Chapter 88: Disaster Relief

The snow is now falling heavier than ever, and the snow disaster should come soon. Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info she must ask Cheng Nuo to transport the grain and charcoal stored in the suburbs of Beijing into the city as much as possible. Otherwise, after the heavy snow closes the road, even if it is a suburb of Beijing, it will be difficult to get into the city.

After Mo Shaohua left, Mo Shaoli immediately wrote to ask Xue Kite to hand it over to Lin Cong: "Send it to Mr. Cheng as soon as possible." ”

Lin Cong did not delay, and quickly sent the letter to Cheng Mansion in Huaishu Hutong.

With continuous snow and a sharp drop in temperature, prices in the city have begun to rise, especially the price of rice charcoal. Cheng Nuo also gradually understood Mo Shaoli's intentions, and received a person to prepare the carriage and horses overnight, and began to transport food and wages into the city one after another from the next day.

Mo Shaoli's memory is not biased, and the next few days will still be snowy. The snow on the ground has been several feet thick, and many old and simple houses in Gyeonggi have been crushed and destroyed by the snow. People were displaced, rice wages were scarce in the city, prices were skyrocketing, and people began to die of hunger and cold on the streets.

Although Mo Shaoli asked Cheng Nuo to set up a porridge shed on Xisi Street to give porridge, it was just a drop in the bucket. Many of the victims collapsed when they were almost at the porridge shack and could not get up again. She wanted to build some wooden shacks to house the homeless, and conveyed her idea to Cheng Nuohou. Cheng Nuo told her that the established houses in the capital must have land deeds and government approvals.

At this stall, where did she go to get the approval of the title deed?

Mo Shaoli was so anxious that he couldn't think of a better way for a while.

She has dozens of houses in the capital, but now they are all full of food and firewood. It's not that she doesn't want to, but she doesn't dare to let the victims live in those yards, because if there is a looting accident, the consequences will be unimaginable.

It will not only be a loss of money, if someone dies, Cheng Nuo and her are likely to be involved in a lawsuit. At that time, if the tens of thousands of stone grain are discovered by the government, they will only be taken away and returned, and if they are charged with privately storing rice grain...... It's not something she and Cheng Nuo can afford.

At this time, Song Heng wrote to the emperor again, please set up a permanent position.

Hundreds of people die every day in the capital due to the snowstorm, but the imperial court cannot provide rice and grain to help the people and stabilize food prices. The living facts are in front of us, and the benefits of closing positions are self-evident, and this time no one in the court is fiercely opposed.

"The snow disaster has happened, and no matter how good it is, it can't quench the thirst of the near water." Song Ke was unwilling to let such a good thing of fame and fortune fall on Song Heng's head, in addition to secretly scolding the group of wastes under his command for not thinking of Chang Ping before Song Heng first, he tried his best to prevent Song Heng from succeeding.

"That's the second thing I'm going to ask my father to play." Song Heng calmly replied to him, and then bowed down to Song Yuan and asked, "The child wants to ask his father for disaster relief!" ”

"Disaster relief?" was caught off guard by the sudden snow disaster, and Song Yuan, who was anxious, said quietly: "Now that the palace is about to run out of rice and salary, where is there any surplus grain for disaster relief?" ”

Shen Ce spoke out at the right time: "Your Majesty! The ministers have food, which can be dedicated to the emperor to help the emperor and the king of Chu for disaster relief! ”

"Do you have food? How many? Song Yuan perked up and sat up from the dragon chair, "Shen San, where did you get the food?" ”

Shen Ce said: "During the autumn harvest, the minister saw that the price of rice and grain was cheap, so he bought 20,000 stone of grain, which he wanted to use for his mother's winery. I didn't know that since the beginning of winter, the snow has not stopped, the weather is very cold, and it is inconvenient to make sake, so I left it in my hands. ”

"Twenty thousand stones? That's great! Song Yuan was so excited that he patted the dragon chair, "Shen Ce, you are really my lucky star!" ”

Shen Ce was busy making a modest statement: "The minister is fortunate to be able to contribute to the court and relieve the emperor's worries, I am very happy!" "I secretly said in my heart: In order to collect this grain, I used all the manpower under my hands, and even the wind and clouds went to escort the grain truck, is it easy?

Although it was not easy, everything he expected was still there.

Song Yuan really approved Song Heng's request, let Song Heng preside over the disaster relief in Beijing, and supervise the establishment of Chang Ping after the spring of next year.

Song Ke was full of jealousy, but he was helpless. Originally, when the snow disaster began, he also secretly raised some rice and grain, planning to set up a porridge shed to win the hearts of the people and coax the sacred heart after the disaster improved. Unexpectedly, Song Heng and Shen Ce took the lead, not only robbing the disaster relief, a clever pile to win the hearts of the people, but also taking out 20,000 stone of grain to please the emperor.

After going down, Song Ke stood on the steps outside the door of the Qinzheng Palace, looked at the backs of Song Heng and Shen Ce walking away side by side, flicked his sleeves and turned into the palace to see Sun Guifei. He didn't understand very much, why did Song Heng, who was originally as stupid as a fool, suddenly change his temper and become so cunning and difficult to prevent?

And that Shen San, what kind of grain makes wine? It's clear that it's been settled a long time ago, and you have to curry favor in front of the emperor and be embarrassed with Song Heng!

Sun Guifei was also a little stunned when she heard Song Ke finish talking about the morning court, and said in a loud voice: "Nine times out of ten, Shen San is behind the disaster relief and Chang Ping, and he provoked Song Heng to come out. Shen San has always been treacherous, I don't know how many things have happened since he entered the court, but the emperor listens to him! ”

Song Ke said: "My son is suspicious of the source of the 20,000 stone grain, for no reason, the court needs food, how can he have so much in his hands?" Sake?! There was no liquor shop in Lee's dowry industry! ”

Sun Guifei's eyes flashed, and she asked, "Can these 20,000 stone grains be related to Song Heng?" If he participates in the grain ......"

Song Ke's face sank: "I let people in his house keep an eye on it all the time, and there is nothing abnormal." Otherwise, it would not have been until this morning that I learned that Shen San had so much food in his hands and was caught off guard. ”

Sun Guifei said: "In the future, Shen San will have to find someone to watch!" Originally, Song Heng was not vulnerable, and Shen San was there...... I'm afraid it will be much trickier in the future. ”

Song Ke's expression was even more ugly: "Why didn't I place someone to stare at him?" Unexpectedly, he was repeatedly eliminated by him quietly. Now he has lost several secret guards, but he has not received any useful information from him. ”

"I didn't remember anything great about Shen San before, but he was just a man who was famous for his arrogance and domineering in the capital by relying on the momentum of the Zhenguo Mansion. Now that he has only been in the dynasty for more than half a year, why has he become so powerful? Sun Guifei frowned, her eyes full of puzzlement.

Song Ke hated: "That's not all! His father is now more and more dependent on him, and his words are full of praise and trust. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that Song Heng's side will ......"

Sun Guifei rubbed her eyebrows and said, "The matter has come to this point, and it is useless to worry about it." Fortunately, the emperor still trusts you more than Song Heng, and in the future, we must be more cautious in the layout and act when the opportunity arises. We have lost the opportunity in the snow disaster, and now we are just waiting to find out what they have done wrong in the disaster relief before waiting for the opportunity to fight back. ”

When Song Ke heard this, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes: "Mistakes in disaster relief...... They'll have it! ”
