Chapter Ninety-Seven: Abolition of Almsgiving
"It's clear that when Han Xi went to invite the emperor, you just walked out of the emperor's room, how can you deceive yourself now, if the emperor doesn't forgive you, don't be too anxious, as long as your attitude is sincere, the emperor will forgive after all."
After Murong Cha finished speaking, he left with a smile, the four concubines were all nearby, and naturally they heard the conversation between the two people just now, and everyone was a little embarrassed.
After all, these two people are not easy to mess with, and if they show favoritism, I'm afraid their lives won't be too easy.
While the alms were in progress, suddenly, "The emperor has arrived!" ”
Gao Zhan came without saying a word, which caught everyone off guard, and the people were even more shocked when they heard it, although they all knew that the emperor was also coming, but Gao Zhan had not shown up in the past few days.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" For a while, everyone knelt down and hurriedly saluted.
Gao Zhan hooked the corners of his lips, "Everyone get up, I suddenly came here today because I want to announce something to everyone." Come to think of it, this kind of thing is better only if you say it in front of everyone. ”
Everyone looked curious, Han Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, hearing Gao Zhan say this, she didn't know why, she always felt that what Gao Zhan wanted to say was that.
Sure enough, Gao Zhan hooked the corners of his lips slightly, "What I want to say is that this is the last time I will come to give alms this year, and I will not come to give alms again from next year." ”
As soon as this sentence continued, it was silent for a while, and after a while, it seemed that they all realized what they were saying. There was a commotion for a while, "Your Majesty, if you don't come to give alms, what should we do about the annual drought in Fucheng." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, we don't need your masters to give alms, but we always have to think about what we should do!"
"Your Majesty, you have to think twice, what can we do without generosity."
The concubine was also a little incredulous, she felt that it must have been Murong Cha who had done this kind of thing, otherwise how could she be suddenly canceled from almsgiving.
It must be because she disturbed Murong Cha and the emperor to eat together yesterday, so in order to take revenge on herself, she deprived herself of the only chance to go home once a year.
She didn't think that the queen would be able to do this, she just ate a meal, although she did it on purpose, but the queen shouldn't have done it like this.
If Murong Cha knew that the concubine was thinking so at this moment, he really wanted to say that he was innocent, because even she was a little shocked when she heard it, after all, the matter of coming to Fucheng to give alms has been going on for many years.
Gao Zhan's sudden cancellation of this made her have to be shocked, but she was very satisfied, because she didn't want to come to this kind of place every year to do this kind of thing.
Gao Zhan listened to a voice, all of which persuaded him to change his mind, he had expected this situation for a long time, and he still had a very gentle smile on his face.
"I know that everyone must be very incomprehensible why they suddenly want to cancel the matter of coming to Fucheng every year to give alms, and I also know that the people of Fucheng are very helpless when this drought comes every year.
But I also have my considerations for doing this, since I have chosen to do it this way, then I will definitely not let the people of Fucheng suffer, and after a while, everyone will know why they did this, so everyone doesn't have to worry about anything. ”
Hearing Gao Zhan say this, everyone calmed down a little, because since they said it like this, then they must have a way to deal with it, and they still chose to trust Gao Zhan.
Therefore, all the voices of discussion stopped for a while, because they chose to believe Gao Zhan, and if the kings of their own country could not believe it, then I am afraid that no matter how many other things they feared, it would be useless.
Gao Zhan saw that everyone's reactions were not bad, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and then left directly. Murong Cha smiled, "The emperor made the right choice this time, he shouldn't have come to this kind of place a long time ago." ”
Han Xi lowered his head silently on the side and didn't answer anything. Because she understood that Gao Zhan must have thought of how to deal with the annual drought in Fucheng, otherwise she would not have made such a decision.
Han Xi felt that Gao Zhan was really a very responsible king, but it was unreasonable to propose that he give alms every year, so he began to think of a way, and once he thought of a way, he immediately chose to implement it, and it was really not delayed at all.
The concubine walked to Murong Cha's place, her face obviously a little embarrassed. Murong Cha glanced at her, slightly displeased, because once he saw her face, he thought of what happened last night.
"What are you doing here in Hongu? Don't you know that Hongu will be in trouble as soon as he sees you? Didn't that make it clear enough last night? ”
The concubine clenched her fists, "Queen Mother, yesterday the concubine did disturb you and the emperor to eat, but Niangniang, you won't be so angry and make such a suggestion to the emperor, this is a chance for the concubine to return home only once a year." ”
Murong Cha was a little stunned by what the concubine said, although she was indeed very happy to cancel the almsgiving, but she didn't do it anyway.
Although she is the queen, this is related to political matters that she cannot interfere in, and she is not so bold to dare to give the emperor any opinions on politics.
What do you mean by that? Are you saying that the abolition of alms was done by the main palace? Although Hongu is indeed happy to be canceled, but you said that Hongu cut off your way home.
Wouldn't it be your father who deliberately made Fucheng like this in order to let you go home once a year, and deliberately let Fucheng have a drought every year, just to let you go home? ”
"You talk nonsense!" The concubine's sudden words made everyone next to her stunned, after all, the concubine roared like a queen just now.
The other three concubines also swallowed and spitted, a little surprised, didn't this concubine want to live, and dared to talk to the queen like this.
Han Xi also had to admire that this concubine was really strong, and she dared to yell at Murong Cha like this, and said that she was stupid or too outspoken.
Murong Cha's face turned cold all of a sudden, it didn't matter if that cheap woman dared to go against her, the family backgrounds of the two of them were originally equal.
But I didn't expect that even a concubine like this would dare to shout with her, and dare to be enough for her in front of so many people!
"What did you just say? If you have the ability, you can tell this palace again, did you hear it wrong just now! ”
