When the emperor heard Ye Jingcheng's words, he slapped the indignant royal case and reprimanded angrily: "The third child is a self-talker!" Wouldn't it be a joke to hand over these things to him, with the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers! ”

The minister on the side who wanted to speak immediately closed his mouth, and even the slightly outstretched leg immediately retracted.

Ye Ruiming has a few catties and a few taels, and they still know.

He had never fought in actual combat in military affairs, and if he had rashly taken over this errand just now, he didn't know if it would be a blessing or a curse!

"Father, how dare the sons joke with the lives of the soldiers, so they have really been dealing with it sleepless for the past few days, so that there is no time to see Young Master Bai."

Ye Jingcheng said with a sincere face: "Father, Erchen knows that you value Shennongmen, so Erchen thinks, it is better to leave this matter to Lao Wu to do, he treats people gently, and will definitely make Young Master Bai feel at home." ”

"You ......" The emperor pointed to Ye Jingcheng, and wanted to ask when he was so eloquent!

In other words, in the past, with the temperament of the night scene, I would give a sentence at most.

Ye Jingcheng looked at the emperor's anger and his beard shaking and he couldn't say anything, and he couldn't help but praise Luo Ning in his heart.

Unexpectedly, what Ning Er taught him to say was really effective, and it also avoided the emperor's decree forcing him to see Bai Yao, and his disobedience to the decree happened.

"Very good, very good!" The emperor took a few deep breaths and forced himself not to be angry, who made his son a god of war!

Who will let the military aircraft handle the major affairs to him!

"Spread the word to me, let the fifth child handle the matter of receiving the young master of Shennongmen." The emperor gave an order in a huff, and the people on the side hurriedly retreated to the Beiwang Mansion.

The face of the Rui Wang Party in the main hall was as ugly as if it had swallowed several flies.

The military can't be rubbed up, and the Shennongmen and Shennongmen can't be touched, isn't this really idle and have nothing to do!

"Okay, okay, let's disperse if there's nothing to do!" The emperor was irritated when he saw the people in this palace with different thoughts, and waved his hand to let them all go, so as not to be an eyesore.

"Yes, the ministers are leaving." The crowd bowed and stepped back.

It's just that before they reached the threshold, an urgent report came in.

"Report! Southwest Urgent! ”

When everyone heard the sound, they saw a messenger rushing in with a letter in his hand.

The ministers in the main hall couldn't help but stop, their brows furrowed slightly, according to the words, a mere official should not be able to enter here, and it was already amazing if he was not stopped at the palace gate.

"Report! Emperor! Southwest Urgent! The man didn't know if he was running too fast or because his body was too weak, so he threw himself on the ground and slid to the front of the steps.

"Presumptuous!" The emperor scolded sharply.

"Your Majesty, urgent report! Southwest Urgent! When the man had said this with all his might, he fell directly to the ground, holding the letter in his hand all the time.

"Old horse." The emperor gestured to Ma Gonggong on the side.

Ma Gonggong went down and took down the letter in the hand of the yacha with difficulty.

"Your Majesty." Ma Gonggong respectfully opened the letter and handed it to the emperor.

The emperor took a look, his face sank instantly, and he slapped the imperial case violently, shocking that all the ministers who had not yet retired knelt down.

"Your Majesty, but is there something going on in the southwest?" One of the ministers asked in fear.

"The locust plague in the southwest, the people have no harvest, and I haven't received any news here!" The emperor said sharply, and his eyes swept towards everyone.

"Your Majesty, what should you do with this yacha?" Gonggong Ma whispered to the emperor.

"Carry it down, and pass it on to the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Ma Gonggong recruited two little eunuchs to carry people down.

When the yacha was carried down, the people found that his face was pale, and his lips were as dry as dry soil, and if it weren't for the slight heaving of his chest, they would have thought that this man was dead.

"Then, how does that man feel like he hasn't drunk water in days!"

"That's right! Isn't this locust plague a drought to make it so miserable? ”

"Miserable?" Ye Jingcheng coldly glanced at the minister who was speaking, and said coldly: "If Lord Huang saw the scene in the southwest at this moment, I'm afraid he wouldn't have said these words!" ”

"Lord An, what do you mean by this!"

"Cheng'er, what's going on?" The emperor frowned slightly, looked at Ye Jingcheng, and when the other ministers retreated just now, he was the only one standing still.

"There was a famine in the southwest, but local officials only cared about their own interests and suppressed the news." When Ye Jingcheng spoke, his tone was so cold that he could freeze into ice slag, and his eyes swept over the officials present, "It's even more colluding with the officials above!" ”

"Lord Wang, you, you, what do you mean!"

"What are you doing so excited? Could it be that you are also involved? A voice came from outside the temple.

Just listening to the voice, everyone knew that it was Fang Junyi, who said that he was sick in the house, why did he come?

"The emperor forgives the sin, and the minister enters the palace directly without permission." Fang Junyi still had a thick nasal voice when he spoke.

"Fang Aiqing is not sick, why did she still enter the palace?" The emperor stopped and spared Fang Junyi from saluting.

"The southwest is urgent, and the minister is really relieved, so he came into the palace with his body propped up." Fang Junyi coughed as he spoke, and even his pale face was a little rosy because of the intense coughing.

"You got the news so soon?" The emperor's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he looked at Fang Junyi below and asked.

"Your Majesty, in fact, the minister had received the news a few days ago, but on the same day, the minister fell ill inexplicably, and he was in a state of confusion all day long." Fang Junyi said: "If it weren't for the emperor, you let the black old man of Shennongmen come to treat the minister, I'm afraid the minister would no longer be there." ”

The emperor glanced at Fang Junyi in confusion, why did he find someone from Shennongmen?

"Father, didn't you worry about the prime minister's health that day, and asked your son to find a doctor from Shennongmen?" Ye Jingcheng said to the emperor with a deep face.

"Well, I didn't expect you to invite Hei Lao." The emperor replied with a strange face.

"The old man happened to be there that day, so I invited him." There was not a trace of lying on Ye Jingcheng's face, anyway, even if he brought Hei Lao here, it would be the same.

"The minister knew that Hei Lao was sent by the emperor, so he entrusted him to tell the emperor about the locust plague in the southwest." Fang Junyi said: "Your Majesty, when the minister was in the house, I heard that the southwest emergency report was coming, and the minister couldn't rest assured!" ”

"The prime minister's heart is for the court and the people, which is really righteous!" Ye Jingcheng said: "After you sent back the news last time, my father sent people to be guards along the way, so that the messenger who delivered the message could enter Beijing safely." ”

The emperor listened to Ye Jingcheng and Fang Junyi singing and harmonizing, so he had to cooperate: "Cheng'er, what happened to me asking you to investigate!" ”

"Father, the sons have been too busy recently, and the sons and daughters of the Qianshun Pavilion only know a little bit about the news." The night scene said with a difficult face.

Just this fluttering sentence made many people in the temple weak.

They didn't expect the emperor to directly let Qianshun Pavilion take over the matter.

Although the head of Qianshun Pavilion is very busy, the people there are not vegetarians!

The emperor glanced at Ye Jingcheng, his excuse of "very busy" was really smooth in everything!

Immediately afterwards, the emperor swept all the ministers below him who were lowering their heads, and slapped the table angrily, so frightened that those people lowered their heads.

"Father, the son has ordered the towns around the southwest to open warehouses and send the surplus grain to the severely affected areas first, but I am afraid that this is also a drop in the bucket." When Ye Jingcheng said this, his face also sank.

He had already received the news of the southwest locust plague and the collusion of local officials a few days ago, but this news needed to be confirmed, so he could only let people take his token first, and if the news was true, he would let the surrounding places open warehouses and give away grain.

The emperor read the letter in his hand again, and said in a deep voice: "You have done a good job, but the scope of the disaster mentioned in this letter is very extensive, and I am afraid that you can only deal with part of it." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister implores the emperor to allocate money and food for disaster relief to solve the problem of food and clothing for the people." Fang Junyi knelt down suddenly with the support of the guards.

The emperor frowned slightly, did he say that he would not provide disaster relief?
