Mu Ling waited for Liang Chu to get up, and he put on a wool trench coat to open the door.

"I'm coming." Liang Chu picked her up and put her on the bed to cover her, "You can rest first." ”

She was weak, and it was time to sleep soundly, since it was a political matter, how could he bear to work for her to get up in the middle of the night?

Mu Ling smiled, but still got up: "There must be something important, and the emperor didn't rest well at night." The concubine went to make some refreshing tea to relieve the emperor's fatigue. ”

"Ah Ling is so considerate, I am very relieved." Liang Chu hooked his lips and smiled, hugged her into his arms, and kissed her forehead.

It's just a little bit of water, but it makes Mu Ling's heart ripple for a while.

This man seems to be more and more fond of her. However, such tenderness and affection may be like poison, causing her to sink deeper and deeper.

Mu Ling turned around and went to choose some refreshing tea, and just took it, he heard Liang Chu surprised: "What! ”

"It's moving, in the southwest. Yunlin County, Linchuan, Taoshan, and Xinzhou were all affected, among which Yunlin County was the most serious, almost every house's house collapsed, and countless casualties were lost! ”

Feng Shou's voice became more and more nervous, and there was great sadness.

Such a natural disaster occurs once in a century, but this time, several places were suddenly affected by the disaster. The imperial court only provided disaster relief once some time ago, but this time it was a ground movement. It is not known whether the treasury will be able to come up with the money now, which is really worrying.

Liang Chu's hands clenched tightly and clenched his teeth: "Does the local official have a secret report?" ”

"The secret guard is already waiting in the imperial study, the emperor should ......hurry up."

"The secretary of the Xuanbing Department, the secretary of the household department, and the prime minister came to the palace to see me. In addition, these places will send some people over to check the situation first, and they must not be slow. ”

Liang Chu had already stood up, took a few steps outside and paused, turning his head to look at Mu Ling.

"The southwest is moving, I have to deal with it first, Ah Ling, you are so resting."

Even though he was so busy, he still didn't forget to tell her.

Mu Ling smiled comfortingly and nodded obediently.

When he left, Mu Ling looked down at the tea leaves in his hand, called Yu Yan and Cui Yan to dress her, and went to the small kitchen with her things.

After some tinkering, I finally made a few plates of pastries.

They are all made with matcha powder, but they also have a refreshing effect. And if you discuss in the middle of the night, you will definitely be hungry, and if you don't eat at all, it will hurt your stomach. His stomach wasn't good in the first place, but it couldn't hurt like this now.

The pastries are all small pieces, just throw one into your mouth, you can chew and talk at the same time, and no effort will be delayed.

After it was done, Mu Ling began to make tea, and it was to refresh himself, so he used rosemary and mint, and the effect was better.

After it was done, Mu Ling ordered the piano and the painting to be sent to the imperial study.

"Niangniang, don't you send it over by yourself?" Yan Yan was puzzled.

Now it is a big event, Niangniang made pastries so intimately and made sobering tea, but why didn't she send it in person? I can't say that I can please Your Majesty, and I will be even more favored in the future.

"Now that the emperor is discussing national affairs with the ministers, can I still go to the red sleeves to add incense to write beautiful thoughts? If you are like this, you are only afraid that you will be accused of a 'demon concubine' by the group of ministers in the court, and you will be admonished until you die. ”

Mu Ling knocked on Yan Yan's head helplessly, and it was better for her to go back to sleep at this time.

Yan Yan innocent: "Bah, Niangniang said these unlucky words." Niangniang lives a long life, where will she die. ”

"I'm not an old goblin who can't be killed." Mu Ling raised his eyebrows, but he no longer talked about the pipe, he only turned his head and explained to the servant qin and the waiter, and handed over the things to the father-in-law outside the door, no need to say much.

She didn't say that Liang Chu should know who sent these things when he saw them.

As long as Liang Chu knows about this kind of thing in her heart, she is not going to play, so naturally there is no need to publicize it all over the world, and it will be troublesome for those ministers to know.

After doing all this, Mu Ling's drowsiness also came up, and he went back to the room and fell asleep.

It's just that tonight is not peaceful, and a group of people in the imperial study are destined to not close their eyes.

The secret report from the secret guard is a temporary situation in the disaster area, and it is only a preliminary statistic that it is already a heavy loss. The casualties are still unknown, and I am afraid that it will take several years for the southwest region to recuperate.

Liang Chuchu was worried, and hated to crumple the secret report.

"Feng Shou, you will arrange for secret agents to go to Yunlin County, Linchuan, Taoshan, and Xinzhou, and carefully investigate and report the casualties and losses over there."

Historically, the affairs of the disaster area cannot be trusted only by local officials.

Feng Shou received the order, and he also knew that the matter was in a hurry, so he hurried to do it.

After a stick of incense, Feng Shou hurriedly ran in: "Your Majesty, the secretary of the military department, the secretary of the household department, and the prime minister have arrived." ”

"Call them in!" Liang Chuyi threw up his sleeves and sat down on the dragon chair, frowning and waiting for a few people to come in.

Several people hurriedly ran in to salute, and Liang Chu threw down the fold of the ground movement: "A few Aiqing, let's take a look first, the disaster in the southwest should not be underestimated, and this has just happened, and the loss is already huge." A few people thought about how to do this disaster relief work. ”

"Your Majesty, there aren't many taels of silver in the treasury anymore, I'm afraid—" Hubu Shangshu hurriedly greeted in advance.

Liang Chu sneered: "Oh, you don't have any money. Can't you move from my palace? Hubu, you sent me away with no money, when I was a three-year-old child! ”

Every time I ask for money, I have no money and no money, and just after the end of this year, I collected the tax, but I told him that I had no money?

This is a ridiculous joke!

Hubu Shangshu knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, what the old minister said is——"

"I know you're telling the truth, so what? If you don't have money, you will find a way to get money for me, and now you can't come up with the money or think of a way, so what are I doing with tens of thousands of dollars to support you this year? ”

Liang Chu couldn't wait to throw the inkstone on the table over and beat him to break his head, this group of ministers usually had ideas one after another, and they were piled up to advise and play, and they really wanted to use people at this time, but they all shouted bitterly.

Qi Jin looked at the excerpt, and then turned his head and glared at the head of the household.

Where the money from the treasury went, Qi Jin knew better than anyone else, but at this time, it was really not the time to tell the emperor that there was no money.

Hubu Shangshu hurriedly silenced, Liang Chu saw it clearly, and only sneered in his heart.

This household, he will have to serve a pot sooner or later.

Qi Jin arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is necessary to immediately send the minister to investigate the disaster. And after a while, there will be refugees flocking to the capital and the states and counties along the way, and they need to be prepared to accept them along the way. ”
