Chapter 773: Torrential Rain
readx;?“ Tick Tick ......"
The voice became louder and louder, Lu Chengqi turned over in his dream, and asked in a daze, "What time is it?" ”
The wonderful man beside him replied in a coquettish voice: "Your Majesty, it's not time yet!" ”
Lu Chengqi half-opened his eyes and asked, "Why is it so loud outside?" ”
"It's just a rainy day, and it's normal for it to rain heavily in summer......
Lu Chengqi muttered two sentences: "It turned out to be raining ......", and then fell asleep again. There is no way to www.biquge.info the pen %fun %pavilion, it was too hard in the West Chamber last night, Concubine Jinxuan "envied" that the queen and the concubine were pregnant, but her own belly was not angry, and she was tempted again and again, Lu Chengqi had to shake the majesty and continue the expedition. After the clouds and rain, I fell asleep in the middle of the night. With such a lot of exercise, fatigue is inevitable.
Jinxuan looked at Lu Chengqi with silky eyes, without any sleep. Outside the window, the raindrops beat on the green tiles, and the ticking sound continued.
It's strange to say, even if Lu Cheng worked hard, Jinxuan's stomach didn't react, no wonder Jinxuan was in such a hurry. In the royal family, sons are valued by mothers, and if there is not even a son and a half daughter under the knees, the future will be sad. Jinxuan can also be regarded as a means, and through the pressure of the Queen Mother Liu, she hinted that Lu Chengqi would go to the West Chamber more. This month has passed, and there is still no response, and Jinxuan is about to have a problem.
However, during this time, she was only blessed with holy grace, which can be regarded as a consolation.
Half an hour will pass in a moment. Today is another regular dynasty, and Lu Chengqi has to get up early and prepare to go to court. Aside from jealousy, Jinxuan is indeed a good woman. Lu Chengqi didn't even need a waiter, so Jinxuan served him and put on the dragon robe. After breakfast, the strong attendant held a big umbrella and went to the Daqing Hall together.
"Why has it rained for so long and there has been no rest?"
Lu Chengqi frowned and asked left and right, Gao Hao hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, for some reason, there is a lot of rain this year......
"A lot?"
Lu Chengqi was a little vigilant in his heart, continuous rainstorms, even in the future generations, there is a danger of flooding, not to mention that in this era, even the canal has not been dug through. If the rain causes the river to rise sharply, the downstream is the country of Wang Yangze, if there is really a big flood, then the Liangshan water is not big again? At that time, 800 miles of Liangshan will become a thousand miles of Liangshan, and even the fertile land will be submerged. The people along the Yellow River are even more displaced, and the economy will suffer heavy losses!
"Alas, I don't know if Li Jie can carry this hurdle, if he can't carry it, then Yushitai ...... I can't stand it! Lu Chengqi thought of Li Ran's ruthlessness in the imperial history that would not be impeached until death, and he shuddered in his heart.
Gao Hao noticed Lu Chengqi's abnormality and hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty feels cold?" ”
Lu Chengqi shook his head and said, "I'm fine!" ”
He said this, but his eyes looked at the gloomy sky, and his brows were furrowed deeply.
The Daqing Hall also opened a side hall, and all the civil and military officials entered the hall, waiting for the court with a wat in their arms. "Have you heard, Henan Mansion is flooding again!"
"Oh, that's it?"
"It's not a big flood, it's just a few bridges washed away......"
"It's really 'the house leak happened to rain overnight, and the ship was late and encountered a head wind', the treasury is about to bottom out, and I don't know if it can be sent, and this is a big ......."
"If you want me to say, it's all the fault of lowering taxes. One percent of the agricultural tax is too low, what is the difference between this and tax exemption? If it rises to 20%, maybe the situation will be better......"
"Taxation is one thing, and now almost all the people go to Jinghu North Road, Jinghu South Road, Jiangnan West Road, Jiangnan East Road, Guangnan West Road, Guangnan East Road, and countless abandoned farmland in the Central Plains. The land in the south of the Yangtze River is barren, although it can be harvested twice a year, but this far water can't save the near fire! ”
"Shhhh During this period of time, there are still few people impeached by the Imperial History Observatory! ”
"In my opinion, Li Jie, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is in a catastrophe this time!"
Several officials gathered around laughed a little gloatingly. There was only one person, who whispered: "The northwest building is open to four looks, and the remnants of the sun become Qiyue hanging bow." Jiangcun rises and floats at night, and Zeguo is vividly windy in autumn. Thousands of green seedlings are gone, and thousands of boxes of new red millet are empty. Only to distinguish what is the benefit of thin worries, but I want to return to my heart to learn from Seon. ”
The people present were full of poetry and books, and they knew that this was a poem by the great poet Du Mu of the previous dynasty "Title Baiyun Building", titled Han Water Injury Crops. These people all know that this person is from Henan Province, which has always been a flood-prone area, and it is normal to feel it.
They were about to persuade each other, when they heard a shout from outside the palace: "The emperor has arrived!" ”
As if reflexively, he immediately returned to his position, holding the Chaohu upright, ready to greet the emperor. Lu Chengqi stepped into the Daqing Palace, without squinting, and walked straight to the throne.
After Lu Chengqi sat down on the dragon seat, the hundred officials said in unison: "The ministers see Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Holy Peace!" ”
"All the ministers are exempt from courtesy, if there is something to do, play early, and retreat from the court if there is nothing to do!" This is the opening remarks of Lu Chengqi's last dynasty, in fact, once every five days, where will nothing happen! It's true that something happened early, but nothing happened to retreat, but it didn't happen once. The territory of Dashun is so large, don't say that once every five days, it is a day and one day, which is a little insufficient. Fortunately, Dashun's routine is only a court discussion, and it is generally a matter that cannot be decided by various yamen, and it is just taken out for discussion. If the majority seconds it, it will be implemented; Most people disagree, so forget it and find a chance to say it next time. And Lu Chengqi has the power to monopolize power, even if all the ministers oppose it, once he decides, after many court discussions, he can only implement it unconditionally. In other words, even if all the ministers seconded the proposal and Lu Chengqi opposed it, it would be difficult to pass this decree. But in most cases, Lu Chengqi acted in accordance with the results of the court meeting.
The previous ministers had such the power to cover the sky with one hand, and that was because most of the people in the court were their henchmen, and once the court discussion was opened, seven or eight out of ten would have to act according to the thoughts of the ministers. Otherwise, so many people envy the position of Zaifu, for the sake of the decision-making power under one person and above ten thousand!
As soon as Lu Chengqi's voice fell, a person came out with a Chao Wat and said: "Your Majesty, the minister heard that Henan Mansion has been raining heavily in the past few days, and I am afraid that there is a danger of flooding!" Lu Chengqi fixed his eyes and saw that this person was not Li Ran in the imperial history, but Cao Fang, who had just been promoted to Cao Shilang.
Seeing this, Lu Chengqi's heart was relieved, and he said: "Dare to ask Cao Qing, but there is a disaster?" I haven't gotten any news from Henan Province! ”
Cao Fang replied: "Back to Your Majesty, I haven't heard of this, but the Yellow River has soared and has broken down several bridges. There is a way to prepare for a rainy day, but the flood is extremely harmful, and everywhere it goes, people are displaced. I beg your Majesty to prepare as soon as possible! (To be continued.) )
