Chapter 409: The Emperor Comes in Person

The emperor wants to go south?

The words thrown by Emperor Xingyuan immediately set off a huge wave in the hearts of the ministers.

You must know that this is not the time for troubled times, and the emperor's patrol is not a matter of leaving.

Immediately, some ministers objected: "Your Majesty, it takes a long time to go back and forth in the south, and many state affairs will be affected......

Emperor Xingyuan waited for him to finish speaking, and said lightly: "All ministries will keep people, and ordinary matters will be handled according to the usual practice, and urgent matters can be submitted urgently."

"But Your Majesty is not in the capital, and I'm afraid that people will be uneasy—"

"I have decided to let the eldest princess of Zhaoyang supervise the country for the time being."

The eldest princess is in charge of the country?

Ministers, you look at me, and I look at you.

It feels strange for a woman to be in charge of the country, but the eldest princess of Zhaoyang is the only sister of the emperor, which seems to be reasonable......

In fact, at this time, a candidate invariably appeared in the hearts of all the ministers: the eldest prince Xiuwang.

But no one dared to mention it.

The emperor is not there, and the prince is justified in the name of the country. But King Xiu is not the prince after all, and if he proposes to supervise the country, his mind will be too obvious.

What is the most terrifying thing in the sea? It's that his mind is too obvious in front of the emperor, but he doesn't know the emperor's thoughts!

What if the emperor doesn't want to show the prince as the crown prince?

Hubu Shangshu stood up: "Your Majesty, the Son of Heaven travels no more than others, and he needs a large number of soldiers and horses to accompany him, please think twice about Your Majesty."

Finally, the tax has risen, the treasury is not so empty, how can the emperor spend money indiscriminately!

Emperor Xingyuan bowed: "It is true that traveling far away needs to be carefully considered."

The corners of Tobe Shangshu's mouth were slightly upturned, and he was very pleased.

The emperor still listens to persuasion.

"I've already thought about it, the Son of Heaven is going to spend a lot of money, but this trip is worth it. Doesn't Yu Qing want to go with me and see with my own eyes the treasures that can change the lives of thousands of people are unearthed?"

Tobe Shangshu's words of persuasion were suddenly stuck.

The emperor said to take him!

The head of the household was silent, and the others had their own thoughts, and no one objected anymore.

"Since the ministers are not opposed, let's discuss the details of the southward journey."

Who to bring, which road to take, what measures to take, and how to operate in the capital must be discussed one by one.

The discussion lasted until the afternoon.

Then, the news that the emperor was going south spread.

After that, the preparations were carried out in an orderly manner, and during this period, Emperor Xingyuan received a letter from Sun Yan, which focused on the assassination of Xin Yu.

A day later, I received a second letter from Sun Yan, saying that Bai Ying went to Changpingwei to ask for help and was intercepted.

Emperor Xingyuan was furious and urged to advance the travel time by a few more days.

Spring is a good time to go south, and it is convenient and comfortable to walk by water. On the day of departure, the royal fleet was marching in the big river, and the eldest princess of Zhaoyang, who was left alone on the shore to bid farewell, was not in a good mood.

She also misses Ayu, she also wants to see with her own eyes what kind of treasure Ayu grows, why keep her in the capital to supervise the country?

In the eyes of the eldest princess of Zhaoyang, the supervision of the country is purely a thankless task.

In Cining Palace, the Queen Mother was in a very bad mood.

"The king of a country, the lord of the ninety-five, is not safe and secure in the capital, what are you going to do in the south! The mourning family has long seen that the girl is a ...... who can toss."

After scolding Xin Yu, he scolded his daughter again: "Let her supervise the country and supervise the country? Her royal brother spoils her, so she doesn't know how to excuse herself? The mourning family has never seen a daughter who marries back to her parents' house......

Even if there is really no suitable person, she is still a mother, will it be her turn to marry a girl!

The henchman listened to the queen mother's complaints, but she couldn't echo it.

How can this governing the country be the same as living behind closed doors as a family.

No matter what the mood of the old lady and her sister is, anyway, Emperor Xingyuan is getting closer and closer to Wen County, and his mood is becoming more and more excited.

The news of the emperor's southern tour came back to Wenxian County early, the repair of the wharf, the smoothing of the road, and the matters that these representatives attached importance to the arrival of the Son of Heaven were in full swing.

Zhang Zhixian went to Dahebian Station from time to time, looked at the direction of the capital and secretly rejoiced countless times: Fortunately, I listened to Miss Xin's words, otherwise it would be over!

The time has entered March, and the willows are still clinging to each other, and the flowers are splendid.

After getting the news that the royal fleet was coming, Zhang Zhixian led the county government up and down, and waited for twenty miles with Xin Yu and others.

I waited from morning to afternoon.

This is not because the news sent back is wrong, but it is deliberately so long in advance as a sign of respect.

The river stretches as far as the eye can see, and the sun sparkles like broken gold. When the sky and water meet, huge ships slowly come into view.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

There was a commotion of the people waiting on the shore, and it was difficult to suppress their excitement.

Although Wen County is not a poor country, it is far from prosperity, and it is not easy to see a **** in leisure, let alone the emperor in person.

Among them, Xin Yu's face was calm, looking at the fleet in the distance.

Her heart was not at peace.

There is the joy of planting sweet potatoes and finally harvesting, and there is also the reluctance to end this time with He Qingxiao.

After that, they have to return to the cage in the capital, and the warmth and sweetness of walking hand in hand in the fields can only be in a dream.

The fleet was getting closer, and there was still some distance away, so Zhang Zhixian took the lead in kneeling down and shouting long live.

The others also knelt down, and soon the mountains shook with a loud bang, and the birds hovering over the river spread their wings and flew high.

Xin Yu had no choice but to kneel, letting the tide by the river sink into his knees.

The fleet finally landed, and Emperor Xingyuan boarded the dock under the hugs of the front and back.

This pier is newly renovated, and it has long been heavily guarded, and it is impossible to approach it when it is idle.

Emperor Xingyuan landed on the ground, looked at the person kneeling on the ground, and saw Xin Yu at a glance. This has little to do with the quality of eyesight, as the only woman among the people who came to greet her, she is undoubtedly the most conspicuous.

When his gaze moved slightly, he unexpectedly saw He Qingxiao.

Emperor Xingyuan stared at the kneeling young man for a moment and shouted, "Ayu."

The important ministers and nobles who came with him, as well as King Xiu, couldn't help but set their eyes on the girls who came out of the ranks.

"The minister is here."

"Come to me."

Xin Yu walked over without hurrying.

Zhang Zhixian, who was behind her, was secretly shocked, and Miss Xin was more valued by the emperor than he thought, and she was glad of her original decision again.

Emperor Xingyuan carefully looked at the girl who walked in front of him, with a smile on his lips: "Thin, also dark. It's been a hard time for you."

"The minister is not hard, it is the honor of the minister to be able to grow sweet potatoes with his own hands."

Sweet potato?

Everyone quietly exchanged glances when they heard this unfamiliar name, and only then did they know what the treasure of the pomelo was called.

But this sweet potato sounds like a crop, not like a treasure. Could it be that it is ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum and other treasures?

But even if it's ginseng Ganoderma lucidum, it's not worth the emperor's fanfare to tour the south, right?

As soon as he heard the "sweet potato", Emperor Xingyuan's mood became more and more urgent, and his eyes swept and asked, "Which one is the magistrate of Wen County?"

Zhang Zhixian immediately knelt down and came out: "Zhang Weimin, the magistrate of Chenwen County, has seen Your Majesty."

Emperor Xingyuan nodded, and the Wen County officials led by Zhang Zhixian led the way to the place where he was staying.
