As soon as the matter was confirmed, Emperor Li was furious and immediately ordered the nine clans of Yu Wenkang to set an example. There was such a thing as giving gifts in the year of the disaster, King Shou hurriedly entered the palace and told Emperor Li that he didn't know about it, but he still asked Emperor Li to punish him for not being strict, but Emperor Li didn't punish him, just a few symbolic scoldings and let him go back.

As for the rest of the people seeing Yu Wenkang's fate, it is natural that everyone is in danger. How dare the officials of the state capitals do such a thing again, regardless of whether the state capital is serious or not, they will report it to the imperial court one by one, and for a while, the twists and turns of the state capitals will fall like snowflakes.

The drought lasted for several months, and the rice crops in the fields had died. In some of the worst areas, starvation is already everywhere, and hungry people are scattered and begging for food. King Shou's rich family background saw this to the emperor, willing to reduce the amount of money in the palace to help the people affected by the disaster, under the leadership of King Shou, the officials belonging to his party also opened the government to help the people. And Empress Xu in the palace also took the lead in reducing her food and clothing, and the extra money was all used for disaster relief, and other concubines also followed suit.

When the imperial court issued an order to give disaster relief, King Shou donated 10,000 taels of gold to calm the hearts of the people, which naturally won praise from all over the court. As for King Jing, who is already not wealthy, there are still a lot of orphans in the army in the house to raise, where to do such a generous thing. But this does not mean that he will just sit idly by, and after discussing with Xie Yaoguang, Xie Yaoguang will come forward to discuss with the businessmen in Beijing, and also raise a lot of silver taels for disaster relief.

As for the fact that Concubine Hui Guifei in the palace already had Empress Xu cutting her own degree in front of her, it was pointless for her to follow suit. Immediately, while copying Buddhist scriptures in the palace to pray for the blessings of the people of the world, he began to work with the imperial physician to develop sachets to prevent epidemics in order to send them to the affected state capitals.

However, as the days passed, the disaster in the state capitals became more and more serious. Most of the things discussed in the court were also related to the matter of disaster relief, such as who to choose to help the disaster became a matter of embarrassment for Emperor Li. King Shou was eager to try this matter and proposed a lot of ways to deal with the disaster relief now, but because of the matter of Yuwenkang, many people in the court questioned King Shou's attention.

At the beginning, Emperor Li did not scold King Shou, but it does not mean that he does not remember this incident, because in order to avoid suspicion, Emperor Li ordered King Shou and those officials under King Shou not to interfere in the corresponding matters of disaster relief. And he sent King Ding, who had inspected the Yellow River before, to the final state capitals to provide relief to the victims.

No one in the court objected to this decree. Xia Fu, the head of the household department who is responsible for assisting in this matter, has a good relationship with Ye Linchen, and now the household department is in Ye Linchen's hands, and he wants to look through the account books of the household department, which can be called easy. With this effort, he checked the silver taels that the Xue family had paid tribute to the imperial court over the years, and found that they were all recorded quite carefully. Under the doubt, I kept an eye on it and kept it in my heart.

The date of going to Cangzhou was set for three days later, and Ye Linchen and Xia Fu escorted the disaster relief money and grain of the imperial court to Cangzhou, but somehow Emperor Li actually agreed to the attention of King Ding, and asked Xie Yaoguang to go up the Yellow River in the name of the Xie family to collect the grain in the Changping warehouse set up by the imperial court for disaster relief.

On the eve of their departure, the three of them met with Dingwangfu. In order to avoid people's eyes, Xie Yaoguang came to Dingwang's Mansion with a light car, and the three of them sat down separately.

After thinking about it for a while, Ye Linchen handed the token in his hand to Xie Yaoguang, and said softly: "Yaoyao's trip is the secret decree of the emperor, you need to be more careful. If the Xue family really has any moves, this token can protect you. ”

"Your Highness, don't worry, I will be careful." Shen Shouwan smiled, Xie Yaoguang's eyes showed worry, "Although Yuwenkang has been ambushed now, I can't guarantee whether King Shou still has the remnants of power here." Therefore, if Your Highness really meets a tricky person, you don't have to be polite to him. ”

"I hope that Miss Xie can successfully join us with the Xue family's grain." Xia Fu, who had been watching the two of them for a long time, opened his mouth and said such a sentence. Standby station

These words fell on Xie Yaoguang's ears, and she didn't answer, just raised her lips and laughed. It was originally her idea to let Ye Linchen ask Emperor Li for an edict this time, and the two of them acted separately to restrain King Shou, so that King Shou had no time to take care of the two ends.

After exchanging all the things on this trip, Xie Yaoguang and Xia Fucai left one after the other. In the early morning of the second day, Xie Yaoguang set out from Gusu and headed all the way along the canal to the Yellow River Valley, while Ye Linchen set off north along the canal to Cangzhou within an hour of her departure.

This is also the first stop of Ye Linchen's trip. When Xie Yaoguang was halfway there, he changed to a land route and shook off the eyeliner behind him, and as for Ye Linchen, because he was following the orders of the emperors, the road he traveled was much more peaceful than Xie Yaoguang's side.

But what made Xie Yaoguang feel strange was that she was obviously following the secret decree of the emperors, why would she still be so many maggots like tarsal maggots following her all the way, waiting for an opportunity to move. It seems that her itinerary was leaked, or it was afraid that Emperor Li had already voted for this news to others from the beginning.

She and Ye Linchen have exchanged letters along the way, and after learning that Ye Linchen is about two days away from Cangzhou. Immediately dispatched another carriage, Ge Yu disguised herself as her, and led away those killers under the escort of Zhuo Jing, while Xie Yaoguang abandoned the carriage and rode away to Jixia Academy.

By the time Xie Yaoguang arrived at Jixia Academy, it was already three days later, and Zhuo Jing arrived at Jixia Academy one step ahead of her.

It was Ting Liao who came out to greet her, and Ting Liao greeted her happily when she came, "Senior Sister Xie, why did you come suddenly." I don't want anyone to let me know in advance. ”

"I'm here to run an errand nearby, and I happened to be passing by here, so I wanted to come up and see you." After looking around and not seeing Qin Yan, Xie Yaoguang stared at each other and asked, "What about Master?" Why don't you see Master? ”

"Teacher Qin is now in retreat in the backyard pavilion, if Senior Sister wants to see him, I'm afraid she will have to wait a while." After hearing this, it was Xie Yaoguang's junior brother who came forward to talk back and forth, and now he is still teaching in Jixia Academy.

After thinking about it for a while, Xie Yaoguang looked at everyone with a smile, "In that case, I'll go and meet a few mountain chiefs first." ”

Although Qin Yan is quite famous in Jixia Academy, Qin Yan is not the owner of Jixia Academy, and the head of the academy has other people. The head of the academy is surnamed Cui Mingyu, born in Boling, even if the Cui clan is not as famous as Qin Yan, but he is also respected by many students in the academy, and when Xie Yaoguang came, he was learning characters in the room.

Disturbing what others are doing has never been Xie Yaoguang's liking, it is because she is sitting quietly on a chair not far away and drinking tea, and by the time Cui Yu finishes practicing a pair of words, it is already the sunlight skewed.
