Chapter Ninety-Nine: Please
"At this time, the palace is still quiet, I really don't know what they are planning."
"Forget it, don't talk about them, you must be cautious on the road."
"The most important thing is that when you go to the disaster area, don't directly show your wealth."
"When carrying relief materials, we should also pay attention to the fact that we should not let the victims approach the food and grass."
"At this time, the victims are a group of hungry wolves, so it's okay if you take it slowly."
"If you are straightforward, it means that you are here to help."
"I'm afraid that they will rush up and rob you all, and when the time comes, they will be really dumb and eat coptis, and they won't be able to tell if they have any suffering."
"Master, don't worry!" Lin Yin patted his chest and said.
"A few of us, accompanying Young Master Lin Qing through the south and north, we are still very sure of dealing with these things."
"That's good, then I'll be relieved."
"It's still early, pay attention to safety on the road, and after a little preparation, you two will lead the team to the Northland!"
Xia Qingqing's expression of advice made the two of them feel very pleased.
After all, not every master is like Xia Qingqing, who really takes human life seriously, and the lives of these subordinates are too cheap.
When they meet a master who genuinely thinks about themselves, they also feel that it is a great blessing in life.
The two left after saying goodbye to Xia Qingqing, Lin Cai looked at Xia Qingqing's eyes were red, and he refused to stop to rest for a moment.
Then he dissuaded, "The master believes that even if the old prince is here, he doesn't want to see you look so anxious. ”
"After all, it's not a war over there, it's a natural and man-made disaster, and it's not something we can decide."
Xia Qingqing shook his head, "You don't understand, the more natural disasters are, the more they test the confidence of the common people in our dynasty." ”
"If the emperor knows it, he should issue an official document as soon as possible."
"It's just a charter, and I don't have an eyebrow until now, what does this mean?"
"This means that our emperor may not pay much attention to this matter, it is nothing more than this matter disturbing his Chinese New Year's Eve dinner."
"That's not what you say." Lin Cai changed his mind and responded to Xia Qingqing.
"These things also have some elements of party strife, and the emperor must be very worried now."
In the palace, Fu'an looked at the emperor worriedly, "Your Majesty, you only slept for three hours yesterday. ”
"This morning, I summoned all the ministers to the palace to discuss the disaster relief."
"According to the news from above, it has been snowing heavily in the north for more than ten days, even if you are worried, you have to take care of the dragon's body."
The Emperor was too tired to know where to start, and sighed.
said, "I've always known that some people don't in their pits. ”
"It's just that I didn't expect that such a big disaster would be able to hide it until now."
"If you can't hide it, how can you get this fold?"
"It's snowed for more than ten days! I really can't imagine what the local people will be like? ”
"Home is gone. That's the house they built after a lifetime of struggle! ”
"How many people did you say would have died in the snow?"
"I've lived in this palace all my life, and I haven't seen a single snow."
Fu'an opened his mouth, but he didn't know where to start.
"King Jing is very old, and although I sent him to rescue the disaster, I am also worried that something will happen to him."
"Later, 50,000 troops were sent to press the formation in the rear, but the candidate for this person who went out of the city for disaster relief must be well chosen."
"This local official colluded to do such a big disaster, and I plan to send someone who has no party or government and no foundation."
"That's how things can be handled." ”
"It's better to be a person with a high official position."
"Come to think of it, there is really no suitable one in this court."
Fu'an lowered his head and did not dare to participate in the government politics.
The emperor turned his head to look at him and said, "You should also think about it for me, who is suitable to go to the court." ”
"The minions don't dare."
"What don't you dare, now that King Jing has left Beijing, I only have you by my side."
Fu'an pondered and said, "The old slave thinks that not only should we send a senior minister. ”
"It is even more necessary to send a person in a high position, but there are only a handful of such people in the court."
"Let's think about it from another angle, what do you think if we send a prince there?"
The emperor also affirmed his idea, "I also have this idea. ”
"Now, it's all about wine bags and rice bags. Those who have the ability are either old or bent on escaping the world. ”
"In addition, there are constant disputes between the DPRK and China, and no matter who is sent at this time, the civil and military generals will not be able to pass the pass."
"Why don't you send a prince, eldest prince, what do you think?"
Fu'an smiled again, "This old slave is not good to evaluate. ”
The emperor, "What are you afraid of?" ”
"What don't you dare to say?"
"In this hall, just you and me, what are you afraid of?
"Then the old slave said, please forgive the old slave for your innocence."
"Okay."
"During the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the eldest prince entered the palace overnight to ask for his life, and you didn't agree, why did you agree to let him go now?"
The emperor hesitated for a moment and said, "He has never been to such a far place, and coupled with the bitter cold in the north, I am reluctant to let him go." ”
"It's just that I didn't expect him to come to ask for his life in person, and he said it so earnestly."
"We are willing to cut the amount of money in the government in half and allocate all this money for disaster relief."
"When I heard this, I was very pleased, and the children were older and knew that they were worried about me."
Fu'an nodded again and again and said, "Yes, the eldest prince's filial piety to you can be seen every day. ”
"You must have your considerations too," the emperor smiled and nodded, "You, old fox." ”
"Every word is saying that I have other concerns, yes, you're right."
"If you send him, I'm worried that the generals will not be relenting."
"But if you send the second prince, he is still young, his qualifications and experience, and his behavior is not as good as the eldest prince."
"If he is allowed to go, I am worried that the military general's side will not make sense, and the two of them have been fighting for a long time."
"But this disaster relief incident represents the face of the imperial court, so you can't send two princes, right?"
Fu'an nodded again and said, "Indeed, if you send both princes to go, then who will be the main and who will be the auxiliary?" ”
"Who listens to whom?"
"What if there is another quarrel on the road?"
"When the time comes, you will be far away, and you will not be able to serve the two brothers."
The emperor lowered his eyes and said, "The third child, what do you think?" ”
"Among my princes, only these three have reached adulthood."
"Since the eldest prince and the second prince are not suitable, let the third prince go."
"He is not involved in party disputes, he has no connections in the DPRK and China, and he has not interacted with anyone, and he has been unknown before."
"Just give him a chance, let him go through the training, and allocate him a fief in the future."
"Let him and Qingqing and Meimei's life, that's it."
"Although I dislike his biological mother, he is my child after all, and with King Jing here, it's not good to take him too lightly."
Fu'an's mind is exquisite, and he naturally understands the emperor's sorrows.
It's nothing more than an errand messenger, if it is done badly, he can't bear to punish any beloved prince.
Only these three princes have always been disliked by him, so they were pushed out as scapegoats, and it is nothing more than that King Jing is over there.
If you can't think of a big thing, even if there is a real problem, King Jing will help him bear it, which not only saves the face of the royal family, but also gives an explanation to the outside world.
"Your Majesty, you are Shengming."
"The old slave was also about to say, in fact, the third prince is a suitable candidate."
"At this critical juncture, no matter who you send those two princes, it will inevitably cause controversy between the DPRK and China."
"The third prince is different, he has always ignored the government and politics, and if there is no necessary thing, he will not enter the palace."
"During the New Year's holiday, I will leave after you say goodbye, never say a word, do one more thing."
"I've never heard of him, but I've gotten closer to the minister in the court."
"In this matter, the third child is indeed a suitable candidate."
The emperor nodded with satisfaction, there were some things he didn't say directly, since Fu'an helped him build the steps so up, then he would take advantage of the situation.
"Okay, then you go and announce the decree and let the third child enter the palace."
"It's a minion, so let's do it."
Fu'an rode a fast horse to the Three Princes' Mansion.
"The holy decree has arrived," everyone knelt on the ground, and the three princes knelt at the front.
shouted, "Erchen received the order, carried by heaven, and the emperor decreed that the three princes should enter the palace immediately." ”
"Minister, command,"
"Third prince, please."
Fu'an walked up to him with a smile, "Your blessing, this is here." ”
The third prince smiled without saying a word, and his subordinates put a silver bag and two bags into Fu'an's sleeve.
Fu'an pretended to excuse himself, and then put it away, "Old slave, thank you for the reward of the third prince." ”
Above the main hall, the three princes knelt down and shouted, "The sons see their father." ”
"Get up without being polite,"
"Yes, Father,"
"Third child, I announced that you are here to ask what you think about the natural disaster in the north?"
"Back to my father, my son thinks that this matter is urgent, and the imperial court should immediately send a large army to lead the rescue doctors and medicines to the disaster area for relief."
"In this way, Fang Xian loves the people like a son," the emperor nodded with satisfaction.
"As you said, who should be chosen for disaster relief?"
The third prince immediately knelt down and said, "Erchen can think of this, he has already racked his brains, as for the candidate for this disaster relief?" ”
"I really don't know."
The emperor smiled and said, "You don't have to panic, get up." ”
The third prince stood up, as if he had plucked up courage, and generally said, "Father, if you are relieved, it is better to leave it to your sons." ”
"The sons enjoy the admiration of all the people in the capital, miss the favor of their father, and have never made any contribution to the people of Limin." "It's just a good time for the minister to go through it."
The Emperor liked his humble nature, looked at his hands that were so nervous that they clenched their fists, and reassured, "You don't have to be like this. ”
