Chapter 204: Preempted by the Crown Prince

General Bao, who was nearly sixty years old, expressed his worries to the emperor, and immediately attracted the echo of others.

General Bao Lao arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the inland of the Great Zhou has never encountered such a big snowstorm, if you only rely on local officials to save themselves, I am afraid it will cause instability in the people's livelihood, and I hope Your Majesty will think twice." ”

Xiao Wentong disagreed: "General Bao is serious, it's just that it has been snowing for a few days, and he wants the court to come forward for disaster relief, isn't it a bit of a fuss?" ”

"Most of the poor people's homes are grass houses, which are not as good as the high-rise mansions of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and this heavy snow will definitely have a large number of people homeless, and if they are not properly resettled, I am afraid it will cause turmoil." General Bao said.

"It's not that serious." A civil official said, "The snow in the capital will stop in just three days, and Yanyun Prefecture is only two or three hundred miles away from the capital, so maybe the snow has stopped now." ”

Another civil servant also said: "Rain and snow are normal changes in the weather, and it is not too late to wait a few days before making a decision." ”

The crown prince Zhong Hantao and the king of Jin Zhong Hanchi have been silent, Xiao Wentong couldn't help but peek at the king of Jin, he didn't know what the opinion of the king of Jin was, but it was time to show his attitude.

Zhong Hanchi naturally understood what Xiao Wentong meant, and was about to speak, but the crown prince Zhong Hantao took a step ahead of him and hugged his fist at the emperor and said: "Father, the son thinks that General Bao has been stationed at the border for many years, and he naturally knows more about the snow disaster than those who have lived in the capital for a long time. It's just that it is still unknown what the snow disaster in Yanyun Prefecture will be this time. ”

"Erchen is willing to go to Yanyun Prefecture to check the disaster situation in person. First, it can appease the people, and second, if the disaster is really serious, it will not delay the disaster relief, please ask for the father's permission! ”

The emperor was obviously very satisfied with the prince's move, and nodded: "Well, the prince's method is very good. ”

Zhong Hanchi secretly gritted his teeth, this was what he wanted to say, but he was preempted by the prince.

However, where was he willing to be resigned, he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Father, the situation in Yanyun Prefecture is unknown, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a noble status, in case there is a mistake...... The son is not talented, and he is willing to go to Yanyun Prefecture to share his father's worries. ”

"Brother Five Emperors' words are wrong." The crown prince retorted, "As the crown prince, how can you let the imperial brother take risks? Besides, the imperial sister-in-law is now pregnant with the emperor's grandson, and it is when she needs the company of the imperial brother, so she can't make any mistakes! ”

When it comes to Xiao and the child in her belly, Zhong Hanchi feels like he has swallowed a fly, this child didn't come when he should have come, but he came when he shouldn't, and now he was being used as a rhetoric by the prince, which really disgusted him.

"Your Majesty," Imperial Historian Huang Dashi saluted, "According to the minister's eyes, Yanyun Prefecture is not a land of tigers and wolves, but it is just to check the disaster. The visit of the crown prince in person can show the importance of the royal family to this snow disaster, and it can also stabilize the people's hearts. ”

The emperor waved his hand, and he didn't want the two brothers to argue anymore, so he followed Lord Huang's words and said: "Huang Aiqing's words are reasonable, let the prince go." ”

Now that the emperor has spoken, it is useless for others to say more, and the matter of disaster relief has been finalized.

The prince set off for Yanyun Prefecture immediately, and the roads in the capital were quickly cleared, and order was basically restored to normal.

Mo Li also got into the carriage and went to Quanwei Building.

Because of the heavy snowfall, the temperature dropped a lot, and although the road was open, it was still possible to not go out at this time.

There are few pedestrians and vehicles on the streets, and occasionally you can see a few poor people whose houses have been crushed by heavy snow and have nowhere to live.

When Mo Li arrived at Quanwei Building, he first sent someone to call Xu Minglang of Linglong Pavilion, and then followed the shopkeeper Yu into the private room on the top floor.

When the Quanwei Building was renovated, Mo Li asked people to install a ground cage, and there were a few places to put carbon basins in the lobby, no matter how cold it was outside, as long as you entered the Quanwei Building, you would feel warm.

Mo Li drank hot fruit tea, there was no seasonal fruit at this time, as early as summer, she ordered people to dry and store fresh fruits, and in winter used dried fruits to make tea, but it also has a unique flavor.

Not long after, Xu Minglang rushed over and brought the accounts of Linglong Pavilion for the recent period.

Mo Li didn't rush to check the accounts, put the account book aside casually, and said, "I came today because I want to discuss something with the two of you. ”

"The eldest lady has something to do, just tell me." Xu Minglang arched his hand, and Shopkeeper Yu also nodded.

Mo Li smiled: "You have all seen it, this snow has damaged many houses in the capital, and it is estimated that there are still many people who have nowhere to live." I think...... Set up a porridge shed outside the gate of Quanwei Building and give porridge. ”

"The eldest lady wants to do good deeds?" Shopkeeper Yu asked.

"It's not about doing good, it's just trying to do something." Mo Li was a member of the Volunteer Alliance in her last life, and she participated in several post-disaster rescues, but she just wanted to do her best, and did not regard this as a good deed.

"The eldest lady is too humble, and she can think of helping the victims after the disaster, which is a good deed." Shopkeeper Yu said, "It's not difficult to build a porridge shed, we are originally a restaurant, and it is not a problem to make some porridge." ”

Xu Minglang frowned slightly, and said, "It's not difficult to make porridge, but it takes a lot of people to make porridge." When there was a flood in Zichuan County the year before last, there were also many large families who set up porridge sheds to give porridge, but there were too many victims, and it was inevitable that some people did not follow the rules, and there were not a few accidents. ”

"I'm just worried about that." Mo Li nodded, "After all, it's a disaster victim, not a guest we usually receive, if something goes wrong, a good thing will become a bad thing." ”

The shopkeeper Yu chuckled: "Don't worry, the matter of building a porridge shed will be handed over to your subordinates, as long as the manpower is arranged properly, there will be no mistakes." ”

Since Mo Li took over Quanweilou and made the business prosperous according to her ideas, the shopkeeper Yu also regarded her as his master and claimed to be his subordinate.

At the beginning, Mo Li was still a little unaccustomed to it, but Murong Chu said that she would become his wife in the future, and she would naturally be the heroine of these people.

Anyway, it's just a title, Murong Chu said so, and Mo Li didn't take it to heart. In fact, what she didn't know was that the people who could do things under Murong Chu were not ordinary people.

Just like this shopkeeper Yu, like the shopkeeper Zhao in Baixianglou, the county seat of Laizhou, on the surface, he is just the shopkeeper of a restaurant, with a mediocre appearance, and it seems that there is nothing special, but in fact, the kung fu on his body is no worse than those secret guards.

Hearing what the shopkeeper said this, Xu Minglang also put his mind at ease and said, "There are not many guests in Linglong Pavilion recently, if the shopkeeper needs manpower, you can also send some people over there." ”

Mo Li said: "After this heavy snowfall, the weather is terribly cold, I think if possible, in addition to the soup kitchen, I will apply some warm clothes." ”
