Chapter Ninety-Four: Disaster Relief Food Loss
As soon as these words came out, Liu Cheng's face suddenly changed!
"You have a foreign surname, and you want to succeed the Chen family? Aren't you dreaming? ”
Huo Long smiled and shook his head: "This is bad, with my Huo family, this is absolutely impossible, but as long as there is Liu Xiang's help, it must be possible, now that the old emperor is seriously ill, the prince has not yet fully controlled the court, and the imperial power is still slight, if the prince is pressed down, don't you have the right to speak?"
"After all, your daughter is the queen, speaking of which, my mother died early since I was a child, so I don't mind calling you grandpa and Liu Yin mother!"
When Huo Long finished speaking, Liu Cheng finally understood what this kid had in mind, he actually wanted to worship Liu Yin as his mother and become a prince! I want to enter the game by myself!
It seems that the king of Qingzhou has always had the intention of usurping the throne and seizing power!
"That can't be! Even if Chen Mu is knocked down, there is no ...... ahead"
Speaking of this, Liu Cheng's eyes became even more frightened, and he looked at Huo Long with some horror!
"You...... You won't want to ...... again."
Before Liu Cheng could speak, Huo Long hurriedly waved his hand: "Eh, Xiangye, stop, the kid is very simple, the kid doesn't know anything."
"That's all for today, the kid will go back to Qingzhou first."
"Think about what I said, if you think you can fight the prince, then you will continue to fight with the prince, he will be in power, and my father and I will definitely congratulate Xiangye."
"But if you can't fight, and you end up with the Nine Clans, and now all this money and fame has become a bubble, then don't blame the boy."
"Some spring and autumn dreams, just do it, if you don't want to wake up all the time, you really have to sleep to death."
Speaking of this, Huo Long showed a hint of banter on his face, and then walked away.
As for Liu Cheng, he is also in deep thought at the moment.
Now he is indeed weak, as a prime minister with no political power but no military power, once he can't completely suppress the imperial power, the final result will be miserable.
He didn't dare to think about what power was tilting towards the government and the opposition, and now his only appeal was to ensure the remaining power.
But...... What Huo Long means is to let himself kill the four princes!
This...... No, at least one last time!
Shang Shufang.
"Your Highness, something is wrong!"
Just as Chen Mu was reviewing the recital, Zhang Zuo, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, suddenly broke in, and when he caught a glimpse of the panic on his face, Chen Mu couldn't help but scold: "Can you pay attention to your demeanor?" Something's wrong! ”
Zhang Zuo said with a solemn face: "The 200,000 stone of grain transported to Taiyuan to help the victims is missing!"
"What?"
Hearing this, Chen Mu immediately put down his pen, and the 200,000 stone grain was suddenly lost, even Chen Mu couldn't make his face calm.
"Transporting so much food, didn't you send an army to deliver it? Where did you lose it? ”
"The minister sent a thousand people, and all the people were missing, and they sent people to look for them before, and found traces of fighting in the area of Qilian Mountain, and the grain should have been lost there."
"Did you contact local officials to find out? Are there any big bandit groups on the Qilian Mountain side, have these been investigated? ”
Mo Xun said bitterly: "The minister just got the news, as for Taiyuan City, because the prefect is Liucheng's cousin, he is not very cooperative with us, saying that Qilian Mountain does not belong to the jurisdiction of Taiyuan, and he is not willing to send people to assist us."
As soon as he heard that the disobedient prefect was actually Liu Cheng's cousin, Chen Mu punched directly on the table.
"It's really presumptuous, they are all courtiers of the Long Dynasty, and the palace has approved 200,000 stone of grain, just to help them Taiyuan, and they dare to shirk their responsibilities like this! His brother is like duckweed, and he dares to disobey the palace! ”
"Your Royal Highness, for now, let's send someone to find food, now hundreds of thousands of people in Taiyuan have no grain in their homes, so they are counting on relief from the DPRK and China, if they don't solve it quickly, I'm afraid that there will be chaos again."
Chen Mu nodded: "Now Mo Xun is still dealing with the tail of last year's rebellion in Yangzhou, and you are a civil official who deals with internal affairs after all, I am afraid that this matter will have to be visited by the palace in person."
"Three thousand people at once."
"Yes."
At present, Chen Mu is also very painful, there are too few people who can use it under his hands, but whenever something complicated happens, he has to come forward in person with a prince.
The court and the middle are a group of mediocre old ministers, and they are still the miscellaneous of the loyal prime minister, it seems that we have to focus on preparation, the upcoming imperial examination, and we can select some clean talents among the people, which is conducive to the next better imperial rule.
But at this moment, Zhang Zuo, who was about to go out, suddenly muttered: "Last time I lost goods in the northwest, I lost grain this time, why do you make trouble every year."
"Wait."
"Your Highness, what's wrong?"
Chen Mu's face condensed slightly: "Those grains have already arrived in Taiyuan City."
"Didn't you lose it? If you go to Taiyuan City, the prefect will definitely ...... Your Highness, do you mean that it is the Taiyuan prefect who guards and steals? ”
Chen Mu nodded: "200,000 stone grain, more than 1,000 guards and armor, bandits and bandits definitely don't have this strength, this Liucheng is ready to repeat last year's scene."
Hearing the prince's explanation here, Zhang Zuo also suddenly understood.
"This Taiyuan prefect, the courage is really not small, Your Highness this time we have an army in our hands, let's send troops directly."
Chen Mu smiled and shook his head: "No, with the lesson of Li Shu of the Dragon Army last time, this time others must be very well prepared, and the same trick, this Liucheng played twice, this palace felt that he had calculated that there was no one available in the palace, and he would go to Taiyuan in person."
"Their purpose may be this palace."
"It seems that if you want to get these grains back, this palace must go to Taiyuan."
