When Qin Yining heard this, his face was a little solemn.

"The prince is still in the palace?"

"Yes." Xu Weizhi said, "Huzi followed the prince into the palace, presumably when he heard the news, he immediately quietly sent the letter out, so that we could know in advance and be prepared." ”

Qin Yining nodded in understanding, because Qin Huaiyuan was like this on weekdays.

What she is worried about now is whether there is any conspiracy on the part of the saint to arrange disaster relief. Now that the treasury palace is empty, and the inner treasury of the saint is not rich, this disaster has spread widely, and if you want to provide disaster relief, you naturally need a large amount of silver, where can the saint get this silver?

It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. Xiao Xiao has the ability to take people to help disasters, but he can't turn money out of thin air, right? If the disaster relief money can't be come up with by then, won't the victims still have to blame the people in the end?

Qin Yining felt that things seemed to be developing in the direction of the saint's arrears to the Tiger Ben Army's military salaries. If there is really a situation where the arrears for disaster relief are not good and the food and clothing of the victims are not guaranteed, won't this black pot have to be carried by the devil?

"It's not right to go on like this." Qin Yining got up and paced, and said softly: "We can't let the prince carry the black cauldron. It's not that we don't want to do things for the people in the disaster area, but we can't let people hurt the prince easily. Mr. Xie, Mr. Xu, do you have any other news? ”

Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi glanced at each other, and Xie Yue said, "There is news." Lu Heng, the second master of the Lu family, went to the south, and when the earth dragon turned over, he was not far from Dayan, and it seemed that he had been affected. Our spies have gotten the news, and they can be one step faster than the others, but this time the Lu family should also get the news. I don't know what Elder Lu Ge's reaction will be today. ”

Qin Yining remembered that the map he had scribbled was a barren mountain in the north of the old capital of Dayan, and his mood couldn't help but be a little delicate.

She was just a random drawing, and it was also a helpless move at the time, and it was expected that someone would be led over, who would have thought that he would be unlucky enough to run into the earth dragon and turn over!

If Lu Heng lost his life because of this, wouldn't it be her sin.

Qin Yining had mixed feelings in his heart for a while.

Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi keenly noticed that Qin Yining's expression was wrong. Thinking about the rumors from the outside world and the past, he knew that Lu Heng had always had a heart for Qin Yining, and at this time, seeing that Qin Yining's expression was wrong when he heard that Lu Heng had an accident, he couldn't help but have some guesses.

As soon as Qin Yining raised his eyes and saw the eyes of the two, he understood what they were thinking, and couldn't help but laugh and said that he had faked the treasure map that day.

“…… That's why I thought, if something happens, it's really my fault. ”

"I see," Xu Weizhi said with a smile, "Don't worry too much about the princess, in fact, even if there is no treasure map, the Lu family will definitely arrange for someone to go to the old capital of the Great Yan Dynasty to find clues." Although the Lu family is not short of money, they don't want such a large amount of money to be taken away by the saint, so that there will be one less place where the saint can be contained. So they just wouldn't have gone without this treasure map. What's more, the turning of the earth dragon is unpredictable, and it is not something you can control. ”

"Having said that, I feel uneasy in the end."

Qin Yining thought for a moment, and then said, "In this case, let's order people to pay more attention to the Lu family's reaction." ”

"Yes. I have already sent someone to investigate. Both staff members laughed.

At this moment, someone outside talked back and forth, saying that someone outside was looking for Xie Yue.

Xie Yue got up and went out, and came back after a short time, bringing back a message.

"Speaking of Lu Ge Lao, there is his letter. Just after the spies went back and forth, Lu Ge Lao got the news that Lu Er Ye was affected by the disaster and seemed to be buried, and Lu Ge Lao, who originally said that he was sick at home, immediately entered the palace to ask for a saint. ”

Qin Yining bit his lower lip and thought for a while: "Elder Lu Ge loves Second Master Lu so much, if he can go to the south in person to find the whereabouts of his grandson, he can preside over the disaster relief, and the prince can be relieved of the main responsibility, and it would be good to go as he pleases." ”

"yes." Xie Yue sighed, "But if it is really the prince who picks the head to go out, first of all, the saint will not give the prince the tiger army, and maybe he will allocate the original dragon army of Ji Yuma to the prince a few hundred people." lest the prince return to control the tiger army and cause chaos. ”

"Naturally, the Holy One will be worried. After all, the prince's military exploits and prestige in the army are all there. ”

Qin Yining, Xie Yue, and Xu Weizhi talked about the current situation of the court while waiting for news.

At the same time, the scene was silent.

I could only hear Li Qitian, who was sitting on the dragon chair, say in a deep voice: "The disaster relief in the south cannot be delayed, since Dayan is subordinate to the Great Zhou, that land is the land of the Great Zhou, and the people there are also the people of the Great Zhou, where can we see death and not save it?" ”

Several officials who had previously stood up against the disaster relief were silenced by the words of the saint.

Since Gui Shun came, Yu Chiyan, who had been standing in the corner as a wooden man, finally stood up this time and arched his hand: "Holy Lord, the minister has something to say." ”

"Oh? It turned out to be the king of Yanjun. Li Qitian seemed to be extra patient when facing Wei Chiyan: "Aiqing has something to say, please speak." ”

The word Aiqing is extremely clear.

If it were in normal times, under such show-off and humiliation, Yu Chiyan would have hid in the corner with a pale face and tried his best to reduce his sense of existence.

But today, he said solemnly: "Holy Lord, the minister asked to go to the old capital for disaster relief this time, and entrusted it to the minister to supervise it." ”

"Oh?" Li Qitian said with interest: "King Yanjun really loves the people like a son, but it is really not good to promise you." The disaster in the old capital of the Yan Dynasty was serious, and after the earth dragon turned over, I don't know if there will be an epidemic. I'm afraid I'll be tired of you. ”

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye understands in their hearts, how could Li Qitian let Wei Chiyan out with confidence?

The disaster area was originally the former capital of Yu Chiyan, and the people there were once Yu Chiyan's subjects.

No one can guarantee whether Wei Chiyan has any other forces in the local area. It's like the treasure left by the faint king, which has swept everyone for so long.

If he agrees to Yu Chiyan to go, wouldn't it be a return to the mountain?

Wei Chiyan thought about it, and also understood Li Qitian's concerns, and said: "The Holy Lord has just arranged for Prince Zhongshun to provide disaster relief, which is very good, Prince Zhongshun has outstanding ability, and he must be a good candidate for disaster relief." Why don't you arrange for the Holy Lord to go with the loyal prince? ”

When Li Qitian heard this, he looked at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and finally his eyes fell on Xiao Xiao's body.

Seeing that Li Qitian seemed to be thinking, all the ministers did not dare to gasp.

Only Lu Ge, who had lost his grandson, was anxious, and it was difficult to control his emotions and said, "Holy Lord, please order someone to go as soon as possible." ”

No one can understand their best grandson, who spoke to himself well before leaving, and it was even more sad that the news that he had been buried and disappeared did not take long came.

Li Qitian could also understand Lu Ge Lao's mood

It is precisely because of his understanding that he is particularly happy in his heart.

Let Lu Heng get the treasure map and run away without permission, and he didn't know how to hand over the treasure to the imperial court.

This time, he'd better die in the south to get rid of his hatred!

Although Li Qitian thought so in his heart, Lu Ge was an old minister after all, if Li Qitian behaved too ruthlessly, I am afraid that it would also hurt the hearts of the rest of the courtiers, which would not be conducive to him ruling the courtiers in the future.

Li Qitian groaned.

At this moment, Qin Huaiyuan came out of class and saluted: "Holy Lord." ”

Li Qitian still trusted Qin Huaiyuan very much, and said with a pleasant face: "Qin Aiqing has something to say?" ”

Qin Huaiyuan saluted respectfully and said: "Holy Lord, the minister thinks that the disaster relief matter cannot be delayed, and it is reasonable to immediately order people to go out of Beijing, on the one hand, to prepare disaster relief materials to ensure the food and clothing of the people, and on the other hand, to pay attention to bringing doctors, and on the other hand, the epidemic occurs." This is the Holy One's opportunity to show your mercy to your courtiers. ”

Li Qitian nodded clearly.

Indeed, after all, the Great Yan Dynasty was not his territory in the past, and if the old capital of Great Yan suffered such a big crisis this time, but he was indifferent, it would inevitably chill the hearts of the people of the Great Yan Dynasty.

"Qin Aiqing and I thought the same, this disaster relief must be going. It's just that I haven't made up my mind about this candidate. King Yanjun is dedicated to the people's table, I thought, let's let King Yanjun go. ”

As soon as the words fell, he saw Yu Chiyan saluting happily and said gratefully: "Thank you for the consummation of the saint!" The minister must do his errand conscientiously. ”

Li Qitian said this, and his heart was extremely comfortable.

Being surrendered to the old lord of the empire who surrendered to him like this can really show his strength and ability, and it also hits the happiest place in his son's heart.

Qin Huai saw that Li Qitian seemed to have made up his mind, so he retreated back to his position and stopped trying to speak.

Li Qitian thought for a while, and then said: "That's it, in this case, I will make the king of Yanjun the special envoy for disaster relief, and the matter of going to the south for disaster relief will be handed over to you." When you go out, you can't be without a competent person by your side. In this way, I will arrange for Prince Zhongshun to take 300 dragon troops with you. Along with your safety, and at your command. “

Yu Chiyan already hated Xiao Xiao to the core, if it weren't for Xiao Xiao, would the Great Yan Dynasty be able to be defeated? If he hadn't deliberated for a long time, how could Qin Yining be given a marriage to Xiao Xiao, making him completely cut off the idea of welcoming Qin Yining as a side concubine?

This man seems to have been born to oppose him.

Now I want to go to disaster relief, I want to return to my homeland, and I have to take the owl with me!

Wei Chiyan understood that Li Qitian wanted Xiao Xiao to monitor his every move.

But as the most embarrassing of the vassals, where could he find a suitable reason to refuse?

Remembering what Gu Chang's grandfather Gu Shixiong had said, Wei Chiyan saluted respectfully and said, "The saint is thoughtful, thank you to the saint." ”

"No courtesy." Li Qitian looked at Xiao Xiao with a smile, when he was just arranged, Xiao Xiao was still dominant, and now he has become the bodyguard of King Yanjun?

Li Qitian looked at Xiao Xiao's stinky face, and his heart was refreshed.

He didn't mind adding a little more blockage between Xiao Xiao and Yu Chiyan.

"Prince Zhongshun is about to go out when he gets married, which is too undeserved, so I specially allow Prince Zhongshun to take the princess to go to the disaster relief together."
