Chapter 60: Disaster Relief
The Imperial Study
Because of the candidates for disaster relief in the Taihe Palace, the court meeting was held in the imperial study.
"Disaster relief is the responsibility of the imperial court, and there is no reason for you to fill in the private treasury, Wu Wenhong, you compromised and reported that the household department allocated two pieces of silver, cut out 30,000, and the rest of the warehouse in batches, all of which will be disposed of by the prince, and the disaster must not be delayed."
Wu Wenjie originally wanted to intercede, wanting His Majesty to change his mind.
"Alright, I'm tired too. It's just that if it's a civil unrest this time......"
"Erchen promises that there will be no such thing again." The crown prince Nanxu met the emperor's eyes and immediately assured.
The most anxious person in this matter was Wu Wenhong, Mu Yu'an caught up with him with a gloomy expression, "Lord Wu, is there civil unrest almost every time in disaster relief?" ”
"Yes, almost all the civil unrest after the disaster relief ends with troops, and Your Majesty naturally has never bothered about it, nor has he ever thought about the reasons for the civil unrest."
Mu Yu'an heard and understood the meaning of Wu Wenhong's words, as the prince of a country, he did his own selfish power, disregarding the lives of the victims, and what was even more sad was that the emperor who was the lord of a country was the same.
Looking at Wu Wenhong's lonely figure, Mu Yu'an could only sigh helplessly and walked towards the palace gate.
……
Wanhualou
"Brother Jie, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you miss me!"
After You Qingyun returned to You Mansion to greet the second elder, he asked Feng to come to Wanhualou for a drink.
"I'm afraid you don't know what happened today."
Xie Feng, who was bound in white, gently sipped the tea, glanced at it indifferently, and You Qingyun, who was proud of the spring breeze, said lightly.
"Doesn't it mean that I go to the flower building and don't do my job. I don't want to be an official in the court, and those imperial historians are full of food. ”
You Qingyun sat on the prepared banquet chair casually, picked up the wine glass and touched the quilt in Xie Feng's hand.
"Come, there is wine today and drunk tomorrow."
"Brother Jie"
A few days later
But I really didn't expect that there was really a thunder on the head of the crown prince Nanxu, which made everyone know about it, and it was boiling, and it was even related to the face of the court and the emperor.
The Imperial Study
"I actually rushed to Youzhou in front of the imperial court to scatter silver for disaster relief, what kind of silver was scattered? It was actually the gift money given to you from below, the state government ordered a round-up, and even the servants were unwilling to obey, and the people gathered in front of the government to shout grievances, and the book of all the people was handed to my desk. ”
"Now it's not only Youzhou, but also a large area around it, and even the capital is in an uproar, and all the spearheads are pointing at you!" The Emperor was very angry at this time.
shouted angrily: "You, you really give me a long face!" ”
"Father, the son is wronged, the son doesn't know why the Yuezhou prefect wants to give a gift to the son, he hasn't given it in previous years."
Mu Yu'an looked at this scene and shook his head, he thought that he could be more idle this time, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen, and he was called early in the morning.
"The minister doesn't understand, according to His Royal Highness, in the past good years, the prefect of Youzhou has never sent gifts to the capital, this year is the year of the catastrophe, the entire Youzhou is almost nothing, how can this prefect think of doing this kind of thing, if this is the case, his brain is so confused, I don't know how he became this parent official at that time." Wu Wenhong really didn't expect that there was really a thunderbolt in the sky that hit the head of the crown prince Nanxu, so naturally he couldn't let go of this turning point.
"Yu'an, come on!"
She simply looked at Emperor Liang with a confused face, what did she want to say, saying that the prefect of Youzhou gave a gift to the capital every year, how could she speak.
"My father is here, this matter is so clear, why do you need to explain it to Weichen, hehe." No matter how much Nanxu stares at herself, she can't help it, does she really want to make it clear how many gifts the crown prince and the second prince have received over the years?
"In previous years, you accepted some ritual gifts, as long as it wasn't excessive, I didn't care, but what is the situation this year, why don't you know the convergence point."
"Father, there are so many princes in the capital, just based on the words of these robbers, how can they hardly deduct this gift silver and say that this gift is for your sons? Erchen is really not convinced. It's not impossible if someone else arranged it. ”
Mu Yu'an felt that this sentence was coming at him, "What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean by this?" ”
"I'm really good at climbing up the pole!"
"Okay, you two let Wu Qing talk! I don't look at what time it is, and I still keep arguing! ”
Emperor Nan Tianyi rubbed his tired temples, his brows furrowed, full of helplessness. If it weren't for his own son, it would naturally be easy to solve, and he would have beheaded him.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister is also afraid that the rumors from the outside world are untrue and wronged His Highness, so he and the officials jointly issued an emergency report, and ordered the governor of Hejian to immediately rush to Youzhou to verify, this is the return report, please take a look." Wu Wenhong, the secretary of the ministry, is serious and careful, and is not afraid of the style of power, which impresses Mu Yu'an.
"By the way, Lord Wu, I still have the old New Year's gift list and the letter of invitation left by the prefect of Youzhou, I don't know if you need it?" Whoever told you to bite me, then don't blame me for being ruthless.
"Erchen, this also has the same thing as the princess, Brother Wang, do you want to personally compare the authenticity of the Erchen brought by Lord Wu with Erchen?"
Prince Nanxu looked at Nan Yu, Mu Yu'an and Wu Wenhong, and the three of them sang one and one assist, their faces turned from white to black, and from black to red.
Nanxu could only look at the emperor anxiously and aggrievedly.
"Father..."
"Alright, don't say any more." Nan Tianyi directly interrupted, "I didn't think about you. ”
Nan Tianyi's words Nan Yu didn't feel surprised, but Wu Wenhong felt that it was not good, and he was still arguing and saying:
"Your Majesty's ......" This is not only related to the face of the imperial court, the law of the imperial court, but most importantly, it is related to the lives of tens of thousands of people, isn't this not a big deal? Not even punished severely? ”
"It's just that if something like this happens, the people's feelings and public opinion are irreparable, and it's not appropriate to let you take charge of disaster relief again, so you don't care about this errand."
"Father, my son just wants to..."
The emperor directly interrupted the useless argument of the crown prince Nanxu, and shouted angrily:
"What more do you want? The whole year has been a mess, I have not been clean, and it will be the end of the year in more than two months, and I don't want to make a big move, so you give me some time to be quiet, and don't do anything that hurts your face, if this is the case again, I will not be so tolerant of you as I am today. ”
"Erchen knows."
After the emperor finished reprimanding, he waved his hand impatiently to drive away several of them, and urgently needed to be quiet.
As soon as Mu Yu'an stepped out of the door of the imperial study, and after going down the steps, he saw the prince not far away, and he knew what he was waiting for.
"I don't know what the prince has to say?"
"Lord Yu'an, today in front of my father and the emperor with Nanyu and them to pit me, are you standing on their side?"
Nan Xu stared at Mu Yu'an with a pink face, and said through gritted teeth.
Mu Yu'an smiled at the corner of his mouth, "The prince is really joking, when did I stand on that side, but His Royal Highness passed today." I can see that I don't care about what Your Highness did in the past, but what Your Highness said in front of your father today doesn't mean something? There is also what happened to Weichen in Lechuan City, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must be very clear. ”
Mu Yu'an put away her smile and said with a gloomy expression.
Mu Yu'an walked a few steps and suddenly stopped, "And Your Highness, this matter is over, don't do such a thing next time, I have no intention, I hope Your Highness will do it yourself." ”
"Mr. Sue!"
"Huh?" Su Zhe saw Xiao Ai's serious expression, and he became serious, "What happened during this time?" Can make Her Royal Highness the princess so serious? ”
"It's not a thing, it's just that I've told Mr. many times about Tonglu, why doesn't Mr. deal with it, you must know that people as weak as Qin have been staring at this matter all along! Still the gentleman can't bear it, so I went to help the gentleman deal with it. ”
Su Zhe immediately grabbed Xiao Ai, "I know you're worried about me, but this matter is really not in a hurry, and Tong Lu is not a key person, even if it really happens."
"Mr. Sue!"
"Huh?" Su Zhe saw Xiao Ai's serious expression, and he became serious, "What happened during this time?" Can make Her Royal Highness the princess so serious? ”
"It's not a thing, it's just that I've told Mr. many times about Tonglu, why doesn't Mr. deal with it, you must know that people as weak as Qin have been staring at this matter all along! Still the gentleman can't bear it, so I went to help the gentleman deal with it. ”
Su Zhe immediately grabbed Xiao Ai, "I know you're worried about me, but this matter is really not in a hurry, and Tong Lu is not a key person, even if it really happens."
I like to say the word mellow, is I really mellow, "I'm mellow?" Xiao Ai touched her face.
"Yes, it's a lot better than some time ago."
"Thanks to Concubine Jing's decoction, I also feel that this winter is not so cold, by the way, you can also give Mr. a copy of this decoction, let's drink it together."
"Okay, then let's be mellow together."
"Why does Sir like to say the word mellow?" Xiao Ai finally asked the question she wanted to ask the most.
"Doesn't Ai'er think that this word is closer to reality?"
Although King Yu drank in the mansion all day, although he was a little negative during this time, he himself carefully calculated, "I suddenly found that among the six departments of the imperial court, no one was willing to obey me, Shen Chai didn't take me seriously at all, and Cai Quan of the Criminal Department was even more against me face to face, Zhongshu Ling Liu Cheng, that is an old fox with mud, Yu Shitai looked at the direction of the wind, and now he doesn't say anything."
"Those who get the talent of the unicorn can win the world, and Langya Pavilion is really true. When Jiang Zuo Meilang just entered Beijing last autumn, what was the situation of Your Highness, what was the situation of King Jing, and now that more than a year has passed, isn't it clear who got the Qilin talent? Your Highness, have you never been suspicious? "Qin
