Chapter 017: The Holy Maiden of Troubled Times (16) Disaster Relief

Diligent Palace.

Emperor Yan and the crown prince are discussing the details of disaster relief.

Ning County, which is separated from the imperial city of Yanguo, was hit by a flash flood a while ago, destroying many fertile land houses, killing and wounding many people, and even more homeless.

Fortunately, the county order promptly channeled the rescue and resettlement, and the situation has gradually stabilized.

The people were suffering, and the imperial court should have sent officials to relieve the disaster, but this time, Emperor Yan considered letting the crown prince go.

Disaster relief, done well, can win the hearts of the people. The prince has behaved in a polite and humble manner over the years, and Emperor Yan is satisfied with it in his eyes, and feels that it is time to accumulate some praise for the prince, so he handed over this good errand to him.

How could the prince not know what Emperor Yan meant, and patted his chest more and more humbly to promise that he would not fail in his mission.

As he spoke, the prince offered to take Zhao Guo's proton with him.

Emperor Yan was slightly surprised: "Why? ”

"The second sister seems to be quite fond of Zhao Xinglan, and she runs to Shensi Ju every day, staying for a day, men and women are different after all, and in the long run, the impact is not good. It's better to temporarily transfer Zhao Xinglan away, maybe you can calm down the second sister. ”

After hearing this, Emperor Yan frowned slightly, and tapped his fingers on the table: "That's it?" ”

"Of course not."

The prince hurriedly said: "Father Qi, this Zhao Xinglan is already a wasted person, he only knows playthings all day long, but he has attracted some powerful people to have fun with him, as far as the sons know, not only the second sister has a deep love for him, but the third sister and the fourth sister also have a good impression of him, and even some palace maids dig out their hollow thoughts and transfer them to serve in Shensiju." ”

Speaking of which, the prince is extremely unfair, this superficial world of looking at faces! He suppressed his anger and continued with a steady face:

"The people of Zhao have always been cunning, and they are not tired of deceit, and it is unknown whether this son has other intentions and other plans. Erchen took him to disaster relief with him, and he could also test one or two along the way. ”

It wasn't until the crown prince said the last sentence that Emperor Yan nodded faintly. If you are too suspicious, it is not a disadvantage in the emperor's family, and it can even be called an advantage.

Emperor Yan pondered for a moment and said, "In this case, you can take him with you." Just a little, don't hurt him. ”

The Zhao State, which was strong and prosperous in the past, was willing to send the prince as a proton, and he had put his posture very low. If Zhao Xinglan made any mistakes in Yan Kingdom, it would be like slapping Zhao Guo in the face.

Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, not to mention a lion like Zhao Guo who has not yet completely declined, and war is inevitable.

Today's Emperor Yan doesn't want to fight, and the Yan State has been scarred by years of war, and if the war starts at this time, both sides will have a lot of losses.

The so-called sharpening of knives does not mistake the skill of chopping firewood, at this moment, Yan Guo urgently needs to cultivate himself and recuperate, so Zhao Xinglan must live.

"Yes, Erchen understands."

The prince was obedient on the surface, but in his heart he thought suspiciously, of course I wouldn't hurt that Zhao Xinglan. But if he is "accidentally" injured by the homeless, he will be disfigured at least or killed at worst, and it is beyond my control.

After talking about disaster relief, Emperor Yan thought about it, and still confided in the prince that the holy daughter planned to leave the Yan Palace.

"What?" The prince was shocked, "No, no!" Since the saint came to Yan Kingdom, the news of staying in the palace has spread, and my Great Yan Country has been greatly invigorated, if the saint leaves, those small countries around me are afraid that they will be ready to move again, and they will not obey discipline. ”

"How can I not know?" Emperor Yan frowned, "But the Holy Maiden will resist the wind, if she wants to go, she only needs to ride the wind, who can stop her?" The saint Ken revealed in advance that she had already given face to Zugu. ”

The father and son were speechless for a while, and their minds both thought of the beautiful face of the saint under the snow-white skin, and they both felt heartache.

Suddenly, the crown prince had a flash of inspiration: "Father, the son has an idea." ”

"Oh? Come on! ”

"The holy woman is tired of staying in the palace and wants to go out for a walk. It is better to let the saint go to the disaster relief with her sons, not only to go out of the palace to relieve fatigue, but also to relieve the people, the saint is kind-hearted, and she will not refuse. ”

"Wonderful! Hahaha! That's a great plan! Emperor Yan laughed loudly.

Emperor Yan took the crown prince and went to Mingyue Palace in person to ask Bolan if he was willing to go to disaster relief.

Sure enough, when Bolan heard that the prince's trip was to help others, she readily agreed.

Emperor Yan really breathed a sigh of relief, he was originally ready to make a risky move, and it seemed that he didn't have to take risks for the time being.

The prince was also so excited that he didn't sleep all night, he had been suffering from not being able to get close to the saint, and he couldn't imagine that he would get a chance to get along with the saint day and night!

This disaster relief can not only stab Zhao Xinglan in the heart for the first time, but also may hug the beauty, which is really exciting!

-

Two days later, the prince, the holy woman, Zhao Guozi and other people set off for disaster relief.

The head of the household department, who was responsible for escorting the disaster relief funds and food, had already rushed to Ning County a day early.

Bolan and the prince each had a carriage, but Zhao Xinglan only got one horse.

Bolan took Ah Zhen with her, sat in a spacious and gorgeous carriage, ate pastries and preserved fruits, and looked out through the curtains.

When I went to Yan Palace before, the coachman chose a remote path, and what Bolan saw the most was barren loess.

At this time, the large army was walking on the main road, the carriage was moving steadily, and the scenery outside was constantly changing, from the bustling streets, to the beautiful natural scenery, and then to the lively small town......

I have to say that Emperor Yan, although he is quite brutal in the matter of fighting beasts, is very conscientious in governing the country. In the territory of Yan Kingdom, the people can be regarded as living and working in peace and contentment.

Every time I pass by the station, I will personally greet you and serve you the best wine, food and room.

The prince is like a chameleon, extremely attentive and caring to Bolan. is extremely sarcastic about Zhao Xinglan.

"Zhao Xinglan, do you know that a while ago, my father and the emperor sent his concubine, who had been favored for many years, into the cold palace?"

"Oh." Zhao Xinglan replied perfunctorily, but he also raised his eyebrows facefully to show surprise.

"Do you know why?"

"I'm not your father, how can I know why?"

Prince: Although there is no evidence, I seem to have been taken advantage of??

"You!" The prince glared at him fiercely, "Because Concubine Shu has no virtue or talent, but she is already a servant." Israel serves others, and grace is like a floating cloud, which comes and disperses quickly. Concubine Shu was not the first concubine to be rejected by my father, and she was by no means the last. Did you know? ”

The prince said that Concubine Shu was on his face, but he was actually sarcastic that Zhao Xinglan won the favor of the second princess with her hue. Ordinary men, who are so accused and humiliated, have to be red-faced and angry.

Who knew that Zhao Xinglan only smiled: "What the prince said is very true, but unfortunately Concubine Shu is not here, she can't hear this earnest warning." ”

Bolan also heard the subtext of the prince. However, even if Zhao Xinglan looks like a scoundrel with thick skin, it is difficult to hide the dusty handsome temperament in his eyebrows, and after days of saddle horse fatigue, his back is still as tall as pine bamboo.

And in my heart, that strange feeling rippled in pieces, like throbbing, like sentimentality, and like worry, which made Bolan inexplicably uncomfortable.
