Chapter 53: The Epidemic
Nie Yan didn't know why this Jiang Guifei had to ask for the token in her hand, but after thinking about it for a few times, she felt that handing over the token would not have any effect on herself, so Fang said: "Only this once, not for example." ”
Jiang Guifei understood: "Sister, rest assured, this palace will not say anything unfavorable to my sister in the future." ”
When Nie Yan heard this, Fang ordered Suyun to go and fetch the things.
When Jiang Guifei got what she wanted, she was about to say goodbye and leave, but she was stopped by Nie Yan and said, "Concubine Qi's illness, how did you do it?" ”
Hearing this, Jiang Guifei hesitated slightly, and then avoided the important and said lightly: "It's just that she added something to her diet to remind her of the old things." ”
After that, Jiang Guifei left.
She said vaguely, and did not tell Nie Yan the specific things, so she was not afraid that Nie Yan would catch her any handle.
And Nie Yan knew that Jiang Guifei would not explain things casually, and it was enough to be able to get such a vague explanation.
It's just a counterbalance.
If Jiang Lan used the Su family's affairs to blackmail Nie Yan again, Nie Yan would not be as passive as she is today.
As for Jiang Lan's current situation, she has already faced Queen Xu, and now that Concubine Qi has been abolished by half, as long as the Zhenguo Mansion is still there, she has to be cautious.
At this time, if she is hostile to Nie Yan again, it is really not the time, she would rather take a little risk to stabilize Nie Yan.
Moreover, the token she got from Nie Yan could give her far more benefits than the fall of Concubine Qi in front of her.
From beginning to end, Nie Yan and Jiang Guifei did not mention Fang Wan.
Fang Wan, who was abandoned by the two of them, was standing in a hidden place outside the walls of Beichen Palace at this time, looking at Jiang Guifei's figure coming out of Beichen Palace, her expression was full of resentment.
Tai Chi Temple.
Xiao Yu was throwing a book of music to the ministers who were kneeling on the ground.
"This is the Gannan Embankment that you spent tens of millions of taels of silver to build?!"
Xiao Yu scolded angrily.
Early this morning, Gannan Province sent back an urgent report of 800 miles, the Gannan embankment, which had just been repaired for less than a month, burst last night, and has now flooded nearly 10 counties in a radius, because it is late at night, the casualties cannot be counted for the time being.
And the flood continues to impact the surrounding area, Gannan Province, serious flooding!
Hearing this, the cadres who knelt on the ground waited for a word, buried their heads lower, as if they were afraid that they would be pulled out by Xiao Yu to vent when they raised their heads, but they just said again and again in their mouths: "Weichen's crime deserves death, and please ask the emperor to calm his anger." ”
Fortunately, Xiao Yu has long known the virtues of these people, because it is related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of people, Xiao Yu does not rub his tongue with these people, and directly asks the main responsible Ministry of Industry Shangshudao: "Where is Zhou Yanzhang?" ”
"Wechen is here!"
Zhou Yanzhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, responded sweating profusely. The Gannan embankment was built by the Ministry of Industry, and now there is such a big disaster, I am afraid that he will be the end of the official!
"From now on, you will suspend all your duties, and the affairs of the Ministry of Works will be taken over by the waiter He Donglai, and within three days, find a way to divert the flood." Xiao Yu commanded.
Even though Xiao Yu knew that the Ministry of Industry needed to bear a lot of responsibility for the breaking of the embankment, it was still the first thing to solve the disaster at the moment, and only temporarily suspended Zhou Yanzhang, and the rest of the people would wait until the disaster was over and then settle the accounts slowly!
"Hubu Shangshu Qiu Yuanze, immediately order Hexi Sandao to open a Taiping for disaster relief!"
"Passed the decree, ordered Su Qingyu, the general of Sanpin Yunlu, to be the envoy of the Qincha and the festival of Gannan Province, and went to Gannan Province on behalf of me, and all disaster relief matters were arranged by Su Qingyu, and gave him the right to cut first and then play!"
Xiao Yu issued several wills in a row, none of the ministers expressed dissent, looking at the angry Xiao Yu, no one dared to touch the mold.
In this way, a group of ministers left the Taiji Hall tremblingly, looking at the cloudy sky outside the hall, they all had a feeling that the wind and rain were coming.
And Xiao Yu continued to stay in the Taiji Palace, carefully looking at the records of the emperors of the Chu State in dealing with the disaster, but found that when the first emperor was in power, there was also a flood, but the scope was not large, and the people who were not injured were much, but for some reason there was an outbreak of plague.
Later, it was Xu Chengfang who developed a prescription for the plague, which avoided a large-scale infection.
And Xu Chengfang also got the attention of the first emperor from that incident, so he rose all the way to the top and finally became the right seat in the imperial hospital.
Xiao Yu saw this, and felt that in order to be safe, it was better to send some imperial doctors to sit in the town.
"Xu Lin, pass on my will, and order Cao Chun to select ten imperial doctors from the imperial hospital and set off tomorrow for Gannan Province to treat the victims."
Xiao Yu commanded.
Xu Lin hurriedly responded, knowing that the current disaster was serious, he didn't dare to slack off for a moment, and even went to the imperial hospital to announce the decree.
After Cao Chun received the order, he hurried to Beichen Palace.
"Niangniang, Weichen was ordered by His Majesty, and he had to go to Gannan Province for disaster relief, and his life and death were unpredictable, so that he could not take his junior brother with him, and he could only ask Niangniang to take care of him."
Cao Chun kowtowed to Nie Yan.
Nie Yan felt that this Cao Chun was really interested in Su Yun's sister and brother, even if Cao Chun didn't come to beg her, she would take care of the little brother of the Xu family, after all, there was a relationship with Su Yun.
And Cao Chun came to ask this time, which is to owe her a favor, which is different.
"Don't worry, even if you don't say it, this palace will take care of them." Nie Yan responded.
Cao Chun had Nie Yan's promise, and his heart was a little relieved, but when he saw Su Yun hurriedly walking into the hall, he frowned.
"Su Yun, but something?" Nie Yan asked.
Su Yun replied: "The slave's younger brother refused to stay in the capital, and insisted on following the disaster relief team to Gannan Province to treat the victims. ”
When Nie Yan heard this, she said in her heart that this little brother of the Xu family has a lot of enthusiasm.
"Since it is his own wish, can Lord Cao take the people with him? It's good to have a care. ”
Nie Yan didn't consider the possibility of death when she went to Gannan Province for disaster relief, not because she was cold-blooded, but in her opinion, people always have to go through some twists and turns before they can grow.
If the little brother of the Xu family can really withstand the test, he will have a future.
Cao Chun also thought of this, originally he thought about bringing his junior brother there, but because of Su Yun, he gave up after thinking about it.
After all, Su Yun only has such a blood relative left, and if there is any accident, Cao Chun feels that Su Yun will hate him for the rest of his life.
But now that the junior brother himself has made a request to Su Yun, then he will make another comment.
"Please rest assured, Weichen should take care of herself."
Cao Chun promised Nie Yan, which was also a promise to Su Yun to make her feel at ease.
Su Yun saw that Nie Yan had already arranged it, so naturally there were no more objections, and the matter was decided.
Late at night, Xiao Yu was taking a nap in the Taiji Hall, but was woken up by the urgent sound of eight hundred miles outside the hall.
"Report ——!"
"The sudden outbreak of the epidemic in Gannan Province has killed thousands of people, and the flood has further expanded!"
