Chapter 035: A gentle prince who cares about the people

Seeing that Jing Mofeng didn't mean to stop at this time, Liu Wenzhe coughed lightly and stepped forward to ask: "Forgive the official for being clumsy, I don't know if this adult is ......"

"This official is Jiang Henghao, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple." It's a very proud tone.

It's just that the people who came with Liu Wenzhe secretly slandered when they heard this: This Jiang Henghao really doesn't know what to say, although this Shaoqing of Taichang Temple is a fourth-grade official, above the prefect of the fourth-grade, but Taichang Temple is in charge of the ceremonial affairs of the temple, and it cannot be compared with the prefect who holds real power, but one is a Beijing official and one is a local official!

However, Liu Wenzhe knows it in his heart, looking at Jiang Henghao's behavior, and the news he got is that this Lord Jiang has just been promoted, I am afraid that someone wants to take a piece of the pie in this disaster relief.

Despite this, Liu Wenzhe adhered to the principle that he would rather offend the gentleman than the villain, and said with a light smile, "It turned out to be Lord Jiang, fortunately", and then turned to Jing Mofeng and said: "Your Highness is coming from afar, please go into the city to rest." ”

Jing Mofeng looked at the disaster victims outside the city, his eyebrows were dyed with a faint compassion, and his gentle voice also carried a trace of worry, and said: "Lord Liu, if it is convenient, Mofeng wants to carry out disaster relief matters as soon as possible." ”

I have long heard that the five princes are gentle and have always cared about the people, and this is indeed the case at this time.

Tianli Dynasty has not yet set up a prince, these five princes were originally the best candidates, but unfortunately he did not have the help of his mother and his qualifications were mediocre, if he was not needed to relieve the disaster and clean up the mess, it is estimated that everyone in the court went up to the emperor and down to the officials, and no one would think of this prince.

Liu Wenzhe sighed in his heart and led everyone back to the city to arrange rest.

And the fifth prince Jing Mofeng waited for him to arrange everything, and immediately said: "Lord Liu, what is the disaster situation in Yunzhou now, do the victims have enough food to eat, and has Lord Liu set up a porridge shop?" What is the death toll of the victims? ”

Hearing Jing Mofeng's series of questions, and then looking up and seeing that he had no intention of going to rest at all, Liu Wenzhe couldn't help but be stunned.

Just before he could answer, Jiang Henghao came out from the side and said, "Your Highness, it's been a long journey, even if Your Highness is not tired, you have to be considerate of the lower officials and others, right?" How about waiting until tomorrow to discuss these things with Lord Yanagi? ”

Although Jiang Henghao's words were quite polite, but the tone and expression were all high-minded, Liu Wenzhe, who listened to it, couldn't help frowning slightly, and secretly thought in his heart that he would go back and order someone to check, what kind of reliance did this Jiang Henghao rely on, so that he would not even take the prince in his eyes.

The gentle smile on Jing Mofeng's face was also a little lighter, and there was a hint of helplessness in his clear eyes, and he said, "Then, Lord Jiang, please go and rest." ”

Jiang Henghao looked at Jing Mofeng, and then at Liu Wenzhe, snorted and went back to his room to rest, and the other people who followed the disaster relief also left, and only Jing Mofeng was still standing there.

The officials around Liu Wenzhe looked at each other, although they had heard that these five princes were not treated by the emperor, but they didn't know that even these small officials, from the fourth rank and below, could be so snubbed.

Sighing secretly, Liu Wenzhe asked all the officials in Yunzhou to go back to rest, and everything would be discussed tomorrow, and then he turned his head to look at Jing Mofeng, who was standing at the door at this time.

Jing Mofeng stood tall, the night wind blew his black hair, and the hair was like ink satin on the back of the back, although he did not speak, there was a strong loneliness and helplessness, lingering around him.

"Your Highness......"

Jing Mofeng turned his head, still with a smile on his lips, he said slowly: "Lord Liu, go back and rest, although the drought in Yunzhou is really the most serious in recent decades, but from what I have seen along the way, the victims everywhere are not excited, and there is no bigger disaster, I think Lord Liu has already made corresponding arrangements, so I feel a lot more at ease." ”

Speaking of this, Jing Mofeng actually bowed slowly to Liu Wenzhe and said, "Here, Mofeng thanked Lord Liu for his life on behalf of the people of Yunzhou. ”

Shocked in his heart, Liu Wenzhe hurriedly stepped forward to help Jing Mofeng and said: "Your Highness is really tormenting the lower officials, this is what the lower officials should do, how to deserve the thanks of Your Highness." ”

Jing Mofeng didn't speak, just showed a slightly bitter smile.

In the past few years, he has gone to various places for disaster relief, whether it is drought or flood, or what kind of disaster, everywhere he went, the victims were mourning all over the wilderness, countless dead and wounded, and even the local officials disregarded the lives of the people in disregard of corruption and bent the law, and the people did not get the slightest relief money issued by the imperial court, causing the people to riot in groups, and when the riots subsided, there were already ten rooms and nine empty!

However, when I went to Yunzhou this time, I saw that although the disaster was serious, it was obviously chaotic and orderly, and the people were properly resettled.

"Lord Liu, please also send someone to send a map and scenery of Yunzhou." Seeing that Liu Wenzhe was about to go out, Jing Mofeng suddenly said this.

Liu Wenzhe paused, and suddenly had an idea, and asked with some confusion: "Your Highness wants to ......"

Jing Mofeng nodded and said: "I brought someone from Beijing who is good at finding water sources, maybe he can make a difference in Yunneng, although he can't solve the drought in Yunzhou, but he can also temporarily solve the urgent need." ”

"Your Highness thinks about it thoroughly, your lower officials have been in Yunzhou for a long time, you may be able to help you with one or two, and please ask Your Highness to move down, I don't know what Your Highness thinks?" Liu Wenzhe's heart moved, and he said such a thing for some reason.

"It's so natural." The smile in Jing Mofeng's eyes became clearer.

It's time to say hello to the old lady again, Ling Qingrui, who hasn't rested well, doesn't need to dress up anymore at this time, and her face is already pale.

When Ling Qingrui arrived at Ronghua Hall, she heard some faint laughter coming from inside, and her heart couldn't help but darken slightly, not long after Ling died, they didn't remember her anymore.

walked in, only to see Liu Mengyan snuggling in the arms of the old lady and coquettish, the old lady touched the top of her head dotingly, a scene of ancestral kindness and filial piety.

Liu Mengxi, who originally liked to wear red clothes, had to change to plain clothes because of her filial piety, which made her originally delicate face a little darker, and at this time she seemed to be a little reluctant, and sat there with her mouth pouted.

Seeing Ling Qingrui come in, Liu Mengxi Huo Ran stood up, but slowly sat back under the old lady's stern gaze.

However, Liu Mengxi still said unrelentingly: "Some people are just delicate and expensive, and it is too late to invite their grandmother to Andu, which is not even in the eyes of grandmother." ”

Liu Mengyan was overjoyed when she saw Ling Qingrui's appearance, she heard that Ling Qingrui's decoction had not been broken in the past few days, it seemed to be true, but there was a distressed expression on her face, and she said: "Sister, don't say that, Sister Rui's body is weak and needs to rest well, so she got up late and came slowly." Grandmother, you can't blame Sister Rui. ”

Liu Mengyan looked up with her little face, gently shaking the old lady's arm, looking like a child, but she was alluding to Ling Qingrui's sleepiness and delay in asking the old lady for a long time.

As if she hadn't heard the words of the two of them, Ling Qingrui indifferently saluted the old lady and said, "I've seen grandmother." ”

"Sit down." The old lady raised her eyes slightly, and she had already hidden her worries.

"Sister Rui, didn't you rest last night, why did you look so bad?" Liu Mengyan said and turned her head to the old lady and asked, "Grandmother, Yan'er has the best ginseng from her uncle, can Yan'er give it to Sister Rui to make up for her body?" ”

The old lady patted Liu Mengyan's hand and said, "Yan'er is the most kind-hearted." ”

"Sister, some people are born cheap, and they can't use precious medicinal materials." Liu Mengxi interjected from the side, the expression on her face was very disdainful, she had completely forgotten that when the house doctor was scratched by Ling Qingrui before, she was afraid of Ling Qingrui.

Ling Qingrui smiled lightly and said: "Big sister is cautious, if the concubine in the house is still low, Rui'er really doesn't know if the concubine should be as lowly as a beast?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Mengyan glanced at Ling Qingrui aggrievedly, her eyes were immediately covered with a layer of mist, and the old lady who saw her was distressed and took her in her arms.

And Liu Mengxi stood up "poof" and shouted, "Who do you say is a beast!" He raised his hand and slapped it.

But seeing that Ling Qingrui moved a small step to the side, she avoided the slap, and her fingers gently brushed over an acupuncture point on Liu Mengxi's arm without anyone seeing it.

A feeling of soreness and numbness quickly spread throughout his arm, and Liu Mengxi couldn't help but cover his arm and shouted: "Ah, it hurts!" Little slut, you hit me again! ”

The old lady's face sank with distress and anger, and she wanted to talk about Ling Qingrui, but she was so troubled by Liu Mengxi, but she didn't know how to speak.

Liu Mengyan obediently persuaded: "Grandmother's health is important, don't be angry, granddaughters are not like this, today Sister Rui may have said the wrong thing in a hurry......"

"Sister, why are you still facing her!"

Liu Mengxi suddenly became even more angry, and rushed outside as soon as he stomped his feet. Unexpectedly, as soon as she went out, she bumped into someone, and the other party fell to the ground herself.

"Which who doesn't have long eyes......"

Liu Mengxi raised his head and opened his mouth to scold, but he saw a man with picturesque eyebrows, resolute and modest, standing there with a gentle smile, Liu Mengxi was immediately stupid.

Jing Mofeng insisted on coming to see the old lady in the mansion with full courtesy, and Liu Wenzhe had to lead the way, who knew that before he could enter the door, he saw Liu Mengxi rushing out recklessly, and at this time, he was even more staring at Jing Mofeng, but it was not good to scold him in front of Jing Mofeng, Liu Wenzhe suddenly sank his face.

ordered the maid to help up Liu Mengxi, who was blocking the road, and Liu Wenzhe led Jingmo Feng to go inside.

Entering the door, Jing Mofeng's eyes fell on the back of Ling Qingrui, who was about to walk behind the screen, Ling Qingrui looked back by chance at this time, and the eyes of the two people met unexpectedly in the air, and quickly swiped by.
