Yuwen Haotian didn't raise his eyelids, and said lightly: "The prince has something to discuss later." ”

"It's a matter of disaster, please listen to it." Yu Wenye insisted on going on, "Suzhou County Shou said that the disaster relief grain allocated by the imperial court was hijacked by bandits during transportation, and the grain robbers were named 'bandits' when they couldn't find out where the grain robbers came from." If it is an ordinary bandit, one does not dare to risk death to hijack the official grain, and the other is that even if someone dares to rob the grain, the Suzhou government should take it in one fell swoop. However, the Hu County Order of Qingtong County, which is directly under the jurisdiction of Suzhou County, died in Huangquan because of this, and Dai County Shou fled in despair, preferring to enter Beijing and be dismissed from his official position by you rather than stay in Suzhou. ”

It is rare for grain and grass to be hijacked on official roads, and there have been occasional incidents in the past, all of which are plotted by someone else behind them. Under the blue sky and daylight, he killed the court officials who quelled the chaos, and he also had the ability to force away the head of a county, which shows that this gang of gangsters is by no means idle.

"What do you want?" Yuwen Haotianlong's eyes flashed, and he vaguely guessed a few points.

Yu Wenye looked directly at the emperor, and his voice was straight but firm: "Erchen wants to go to Suzhou in person, find out the whereabouts of the official grain, and give an explanation to the Hu County Order and the people who died in vain." ”

And so it was!

"Nonsense, as the prince of a country, how can you leave Beijing easily? According to what you said, Suzhou County is targeted by gangsters and has a plan, and I will not agree to you to go. Yuwen Haotian opened his mouth leisurely, with undoubted deterrence.

The prince is the foundation of a country, and he must not leave Beijing until he has to. Even if the prince didn't say it, he realized that the things that happened in the Jiangnan area after the year were by no means simple, as if they were similar to the incident decades ago.

Prime Minister Shangguan took a half step closer to Yu Wenye, frowned tightly, and said, "What Your Majesty said is extremely true!" Suzhou now has no county guard to preside over the overall situation, and it is closely adjacent to the disaster area of Zhejiang, we are not clear about how complex the specific situation is, and there are many dangers. Even if Your Majesty sends someone with dignity to calm the situation, then you should choose the eldest prince or the third prince, and you are the crown prince, and you should sit in the capital to share state affairs for Your Majesty. ”

"I don't dare to agree with what the prime minister said. As the saying goes, it is precisely because my father has high hopes for me that I should share the burden for my father and seek the welfare of the people. Yu Wenye looked calm and calm, and talked eloquently, "Father, the son has a hunch, if the previous disaster relief grain and grass robbery is not investigated, Xiao Shilang may not go smoothly to Zhezhou." Maybe there will be someone who will make a stumbling block for him behind his back to delay the disaster, and then he will not cause a catastrophe that cannot be controlled. The sons knelt down and asked their father to fulfill it! ”

The words fell, and he lifted his robe and knelt on the ground.

It didn't matter if he knelt, the rest of the people hurriedly knelt down, and the palace maid who stood respectfully in the hall bowed her head to the ground.

Seeing this, Yuwen Haotian's pupils shrank suddenly, and the expression on his face froze and froze, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time. There seemed to be a scene in this Jinluan Treasure Hall decades ago, not only him, but also Prime Minister Shangguan fell into memories at the same time.

They all remembered the old things thirty years ago, in the same place, in a similar situation, the person who resigned was not the current crown prince Yu Wenye, but the former emperor Yonghui He Wang Yu Wen Haohe.

That year, Zhejiang was not flooded, but coincided with a once-in-a-century drought, and the thieves made chaos, the government was incompetent, and the people were struggling to make a living. The first emperor congratulated the king the most, where was he willing to go to Zhejiang for disaster relief? So King He knelt on his knees and said bitterly: "The son knows that his father has great expectations for his son, and he is reluctant to let his son get into danger. If the sons and daughters ignore the great drought and the lives of the people, how can they stand in front of the world in the future? As a prince, the son should first seek the welfare of the people of the world, and then take care of his own safety. The father and the emperor can rest assured that the sons and daughters will do their best to strive for the peace of the country and the people as soon as possible. ”

The first emperor couldn't resist him, and finally agreed to congratulate the king to go to Zhejiang for disaster relief. King He was consistent with his words and deeds, and when he arrived in Zhezhou, he pacified the people and set up a tent to give porridge, and at the same time summoned the strategists to meditate hard and sort out the disaster relief strategy. During the disaster relief period, King He personally did everything to keep food and clothing simple, and even led the local officials to eat and live with the people, and the wealthy households in Zhejiang were touched by King He's benevolent and virtuous demeanor for the people, and they agreed to open warehouses and release grain to help the victims.

Xu is Shangcang was moved by King He, and a month later, heavy rain fell in the sky, and the drought was greatly alleviated for three days and three nights. King He did not leave in a hurry, but stayed in Zhezhou to personally lead the people to dig ditches to divert water, in case there is another drought in the future, so that all the crops will wither and the grains will not be harvested. The people of Zhezhou still remember what King He did, but it is a pity that King He was beheaded by the emperor less than ten days after returning to Beijing from the drought, and how many people inside and outside the capital wept silently and sent each other along the street.

All of this is unpredictable, and only those who have experienced it can understand it. Yuwen Haotian slowly retracted his thoughts and resisted the urge to sigh. His crown prince is extremely handsome but not like him, and the shadow of King He can be faintly seen in the contours of his cheeks, and it is not surprising that his nephew is like an uncle.

In fact, he knew that if King He hadn't left the capital back then, and his heart was completely devoted to disaster relief, how could he have been easily calculated and detained for conspiracy and died so unjustly! Fortune flows, there is a disaster in Zhejiang, Suzhou is not peaceful, it is his turn to invite the prince to Suzhou, what kind of conspiracy is brewing and fermenting behind it? In any case, Yuwen Haotian firmly believes that he is not the first emperor and will not be easily deceived. Suddenly, he was relieved.

"That's it," Yuwen Hao's Tianlong eyes flickered and said in a deep voice, "I'm right." ”

Yu Wenye suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and kowtowed in a proper manner: "The son of the emperor thanks his father." ”

"Get up." Yuwen Haotian looked around, his eyes fell on Bai Muguan again, it seemed that this kid wanted to take her to Suzhou with him, no wonder Fang dared to interrupt him.

Sure enough, Yu Wenye struck while the iron was hot, and he was busy begging for manpower: "Since my father allowed my son to go to Suzhou, then my son asked to let the commander of the patrol battalion Ling and General Xiaobai accompany his son to Suzhou to investigate the case." ”

Yuwen Haotian secretly thought that it would not be easy for the prince to go to Suzhou, and having Ling Fengchen accompanied him was also an extra layer of protection, and waved his hand: "Accurate." You will set off tomorrow, and I don't think it will be much slower than Xiao Shilang. ”

The emperor's implication was that they could travel together and take care of each other, after all, Suzhou and Zhejiang were on the same border in the south of the Yangtze River, and at least three-quarters of the way was the same. It's a pity that Yu Wenye didn't have this intention, and refused bluntly: "Father forgives the sin, and the son wants to say goodbye to the emperor's grandmother and queen mother before leaving, can you tolerate the next day." ”

In front of the courtiers, what Yu Wenye said was reasonable, and Yuwen Haotian nodded: "If you have this filial piety, I will fulfill it, don't delay the departure in the next two days." ”

The emperor and the crown prince said a word to me, and others were hung there and couldn't interject half a sentence. Until Xiao Sen opened his mouth to remind: "Please choose another good general to go to Zhezhou with his ministers to lead the troops and horses." ”

For him, it is a good thing not to be on the same road as Bai Muguan, and it is inconvenient for men and women to be different. It's not that he deliberately despises women, but that he thinks that women can't interfere in national affairs. She is the daughter of Bai Zhanyi, the god of war, and she is also a woman after all, and a woman should be in the back house.

Yuwen Haotian pondered for a while, and finally decided: "I will order Fang Yan, the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard, to go with you for disaster relief. ”

Xiao Sen was busy.

Fang Yan is less than forty years old this year, he is loyal, steady, and old, although it is difficult to become a general if he is not open enough, it is more than enough to command a thousand soldiers and horses.

"Your Majesty is wise, when Fang leads the return of this trip, it is just time to send Miss Fang out of the cabinet." Prime Minister Shangguan smiled and said.

After the flood control in Zhejiang is completed, the people's will is stable, and Qin sent back to Beijing, and Fang Yan, who accompanied him, was also considered to have made meritorious contributions. The emperor just pushed the boat down the river to reward him and promoted him to an official position.

"King Xixi, how much more do you think I should allocate for disaster relief?"

The emperor didn't call names, and Sima Yunqian, who was so shocked that God flew out of the sky, hurriedly came back to his senses and replied cautiously: "The minister thinks that the disaster relief grain and grass has been sent a while ago, although it was robbed by gangsters, but now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has gone to find out the truth in person, thinking that so much food cannot disappear out of thin air, but will only be hidden somewhere." It is better for Your Majesty to allocate less official silver, and save more silver, and some people will fill their own pockets, but it will not be used on the common people. As for the specific amount, please let Your Majesty decide it himself. ”

Sima Yunqian's words can be called ingenious, first putting pressure on Yu Wenye, urging him to find the stolen grain and grass as soon as possible to alleviate the disaster, and then hinting that the sarcastic disaster relief money will be used by Xiao Sen, the minister, for personal gain. In the final analysis, he knew that once the treasury was empty because of disaster relief, it would be these clan princes who would be unlucky, and the emperor would use various banners to "borrow grain" from the imperial family to enrich the treasury, of course, if there was a loan but not a repayment.

"King Xixi doesn't need to panic, I won't borrow from you." Yuwen Haotian pierced someone's careful thoughts, and sneered before saying, "The victims of the disaster are counting on the relief grain of the imperial court to survive, and I will allocate another 500 stone of grain and 5,000 taels of silver for disaster relief. Xiao Aiqing, this time, the official grain and the official silver will be with you, and it is important to safely transport the silver and grain to Zhezhou. ”

"Yes, the minister will do his best." Xiao Sen said goodbye according to the courtesy, and tonight he picked up and led people on the road.

Poor Lu Shangshu didn't have time to interject from beginning to end, his eyes were red in a hurry, and he desperately gave his eyes to the prime minister. The Cullinan Dynasty was a vast territory, and the emperor fought endlessly in the first ten years of his ascension to the throne, and the treasury was barely enough for normal expenses during the past few years. The war in Mobei has not stopped, and it is necessary to keep close to the military food and salary at the border pass, where is the silver for disaster relief? Although King Xixi's words were bastard, they were in line with Lu Shangshu's heart.

Yuwen Haotian suddenly glanced at Lu Shangshu and sighed: "Lu Aiqing, the people of Zhejiang are also my people, and I can't care about their lives or deaths. I know what you're thinking, but you have to get the food and silver for disaster relief! ”

"Obey." Lu Shangshu responded hard, he had no money to make up, it was a big deal to take a private mat, after all, he couldn't afford to bear the responsibility for delaying the disaster.

I only heard the emperor speak: "The king of Xixi and the prime minister will stay, and you will retire first." ”

……

In the empty hall, only Yuwen Haotian, Shangguan Prime Minister and Sima Yunqian remained.

The emperor's calm and self-contained expression finally couldn't hold back, the green tendons on his forehead were beating, and the dragon's eyes were gloomy like stagnant water. casually took the fold at hand and smashed it towards Sima Yunqian, hitting the door of his head impartially.

Sima Yunqian's back was cold in pain, and he subconsciously knelt on the ground: "Please forgive your majesty!" ”

"Don't think that I don't know who your good princess conspired with in the Marquis of Weiyuan Mansion today in Chunxi Tower!" Yuwen Haotian's voice was cold, and his anger rushed to his heart.

Sima Yunqian didn't care about the trivial matters of the inner house, Sima Ning and Yao Xilin conspired to calculate Bai Muguan's matter, and Princess Xixi pretended not to know and didn't dare to tell her husband.

Therefore, now Sima Yunqian was suspicious in his heart, his waist was very straight, and he was aggrieved: "I don't know what Your Majesty meant?" The little girl was calculated, and the incense was placed in the room, and the eldest prince of the Marquis of Weiyuan defiled the little girl with the incense, and the minister was planning to tell His Majesty about it. ”

Yuwen Haotian didn't believe that he didn't know, and his anger became bigger and bigger: "Do you know that your relatives and the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion are not calculated by Bai Muguan, so they are ugly in public!" Bold and ignorant, I don't believe you go back to the house to torture your wife and daughter! ”

Sima Yunqian felt that the old face was burning again, and the anger accumulated in his chest was not inferior to that of the emperor. A few days ago, Sima Ning did often complain about Bai Muguan's various wrongs, but how could the dignified county lord think of such a shameless method? It's so infuriating and hateful! It's self-defeating, in the final analysis, it's still to blame the damn Bai Muguan......

Prime Minister Shangguan silently gave up his hand to persuade him: "Your Majesty is angry, don't be angry with the dragon body." "Obviously, he didn't mean to intercede for King Xixi.

"Go back to the house and discipline your daughter well, don't make any more trouble in this matter, otherwise I won't be able to spare you!" After speaking, Yuwen Haotian threw another book and smashed it on the bridge of Sima Yunqian's nose, which hurt him so much that he grinned and thanked him in his mouth.

This is the supreme imperial power, the thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, and no one dares to dismiss it.

Until Sima Yunqian's figure disappeared into the hall, Yuwen Haotian was still angry.

The king of Xixi, who has not achieved enough things and has more than enough failures, still has the face to want to be a messenger to hunt on behalf of the sky?

Who dares to calculate Bai Muguan now, the emperor is the first to disagree! There are many generals in the DPRK, and those who can compare to Bai Zhanyi have not yet been reincarnated. It's okay to leave his beloved daughter in the capital safe and sound, if there is a little bit of trouble, I am afraid that he will kill him and cause big trouble in the capital. Besides, she is still the prince's rare favorite, if something really happens in Chunxi Tower, maybe even the prince will be angry with the crown.

Fortunately, the unlucky person is Sima Ning, who eats the consequences of his own evil and deserves it!

Thinking like this, the emperor's mood gradually improved a little.
