The topic of discussion at this small dynasty meeting is "Snow Disaster". Since the beginning of winter, the temperature has dropped sharply.

Families who were barely able to live by tightening their belts were affected by the cold wave and had to spend more money on charcoal fires, cotton clothes and other materials.

But for poor people working in agriculture, their annual income is so small, and the cost of food and clothing must be tightly calculated.

Spending money to buy charcoal and additional cotton clothes means that there is no money to buy rice.

Many poor people have not been able to survive this winter, and they have lost countless people due to hunger and cold.

The imperial court received a series of papers from local government offices, and the words "no household in ten villages" were used to describe the terrible situation of the disaster. . .

Dali Temple Cheng immediately went out and said:

"Your Majesty, you can ask the Ministry of Households to mobilize money and food for disaster relief. The people lack clothing and food and cannot survive the winter. That will inevitably turn into refugees and bring disaster to the states.

"The people who have been ransacked by the refugees will also become refugees. If the disaster cannot be quelled as soon as possible, there is a risk of serious disaster."

Before Yongxing emperor could speak, Hubu Shangshucang went out in panic and said loudly:

"Your Majesty, the treasury is empty, and you really can't come up with extra money and food for disaster relief, please think twice."

The time of disaster relief every year is a storm that shakes the official hat for him, the household minister.

Sure enough, the Ministry of Households quickly stood up to make up for the incident:

"Your Majesty, the minister wants to impeach the household minister for personal gain, corruption and pervert the law, and his party members **** the bones of the court, leaving the treasury empty."

Hube Shangshu fell to his knees and said loudly: "Chen begs the skeleton!"

The corner of Yongxing's mouth twitched fiercely, and he looked down at the ministers blankly.

Party fights!

To this day, there is still a party fight!

It is you group of scholars who only know how to fight in the nest, uniting with the first emperor, so that the people who have been devastated are not livelihood..... Emperor Yongxing squeezed his hands in his sleeves and smiled gently:

"I said yesterday that the disaster is serious, and the courts and ministers have one mind, and discuss countermeasures together, so let’s stop a little bit."

Hube Shangshu and others died immediately.

Emperor Yongxing nodded in satisfaction, and said loudly: "How about the reserves of righteousness in various places?"

Hube Shangshu said: "All warehouses have been opened for disaster relief. However, only during the autumn harvest, the imperial court fought against the Witch God Sect, and its vitality was severely injured. The rations and grasses were collected from various places. Therefore, there was insufficient food storage in various places. ."

Emperor Yongxing thought for a while and said, "Where is the official warehouse?"

The voice fell, the public in the hall looked at each other, and Liu Hong from the right capital came out and said:

"Your Majesty, if you want to stabilize the situation in various places, let the subordinates and officials act normally, the official warehouse cannot move."

The charity warehouse is specially used for disaster relief in famine years.

Guancang pays salaries to officials.

If the official warehouse is moved, if the imperial court can't pay the salary, then it will be the real chaos in the world.

Emperor Yongxing's face sank: "Then Liu Aiqing has any good ideas?"

Liu Hong groaned: "The northern monster still owes the court countless fur, salt, and iron ore. Your Majesty can send an envoy to the northern border to ask for it."

Emperor Yongxing's eyes brightened, and the public underneath also talked about it, but when Wang Shoufu stepped out of the formation, he said:

"This matter is not allowed!"

The public retorted immediately:

"Why not?"

"My official thinks Mrs. Liu's plan is very good."

"Yes, there are flocks of monsters, cattle and sheep with countless furs, just to keep out the cold and solve the imperative of the court."

Wang Shoufu waited patiently for the princes to finish, and then continued to speak:

"The affidavit was drawn up on that day. It was written by Xu Xinnian, the governor of the Hanlin Academy, and the minister personally supervised it. It is written in black and white that the fur, cattle and sheep, etc. given to Dafeng by the demon man was three years later

"Now that the war has subsided for only two months, the monsters are still waiting to be thriving, and materials are in short supply. At this moment, they must fulfill their contract..."

Wang Shoufu did not go on, but the princes understood.

This is forcing the monsters and Dafeng to turn against each other.

Emperor Yongxing was a little annoyed, and asked: "Shoufu Master has any good strategies?"

Wang Shoufu sighed in his heart, even if he didn't look back, he could feel the scorching gaze behind him.

As the chief assistant, he couldn't avoid some things, so he said in a deep voice:

"Although the national treasury is empty, the capital inside and outside the city, and even all parts of the Central Plains, is rich and rich. Your Majesty can call on the righteous people of the world to donate."

It's coming.... All the public's hearts sank.

In fact, as early as many days ago, there were rumors in Beijing that his Majesty wanted to call for donations to fill the void of the treasury and cut meat from them.

Emperor Yongxing waited for this moment and laughed:

"This method is very wonderful, how do you think Master Shoufu should call."

Wang Shoufu said: "The public should take the lead in donating money, and the minister is willing to donate half of the family's wealth to help the victims."

As soon as this statement came out, the public in the hall were in an uproar.

Several members of the Wang Party and the former Wei Party responded immediately, saying that, like Wang Shoufu, they donated half of the family's wealth to fill the national treasury.

But more ministers are opposed.

"Your Majesty, this matter is not allowed."

"If I wait for two sleeves to be breeze, how can I get my wealth?"

"Merchants are chasing profits. Asking them to donate is like cutting meat, which will definitely cause an uproar."

"The national treasury is empty and must not be publicized, so that the witch gods will know that there will be military disasters. Inside, it also lets the people know that the imperial court is strong from outside, and then the refugees will fall into the grass, and there will be endless disasters."

As soon as the emperor called for donations, Wang Shoufu took the lead in donating half of the family's wealth. The response from the princes was great, and they stood in the same camp very tacitly.

Even if they are like fire and water on weekdays.

Emperor Yongxing raised his hand to calm the clamor of ministers.

This is the Imperial Study Room, not the Golden Temple, and there is no **** who lashes out.

After the princes were quiet, he looked at Dali Temple Cheng and said:

"Sir Cheng, what are your intentions?"

The people present are the core figures of the party, and if you get them, you can get most of the parties.

And Dali Sicheng is now the leader of the Qi Party, the only leader, if he nods, the Qi Party can win, at least half of it.

"Your Majesty!" Dali Temple Cheng stepped out, mourning:

"The minister has been an official for twenty years, working diligently, with a cool breeze in his sleeves, no ice in the scorching heat, no charcoal in the cold, but just barely make it."

While speaking, he shook his hands and let his wide sleeves slide down, revealing a pair of hands full of frostbite.

"The minister is willing to put his liver and brain on the ground for the court, and die. But the minister has mercy on his wife and children and does not want them to freeze to death on the street. If your majesty insists on this, the minister begs the bones."

The old fox........ Yongxing Emperor's brain "suddenly" hurts, and he waved his hand quickly:

"Not here, not here..."

If this were the case, he would become a greedy emperor who forced the officials to donate money and caused the minister to resign.

Yes, not much better than Emperor Xian.

Emperor Yongxing believed that such scholars would definitely write this.

Because they were forced to donate.

Emperor Yongxing asked other ministers again, and encountered different soft nails.

It's either crying poor or begging for bones.

The young emperor's face became more and more ugly, and he was unable to get off his feet.

"Neither does this, nor does that work. What is the use of the court to support you? Within three days, I want a surefire solution. If I can't get it out, I will get out of here!"

"Your Majesty calm down!"

The princes knelt down.

...........

The Xiao Dynasty will end early due to Emperor Yongxing’s gaffe.

Wang Shoufu straightened his official hat and put his hands in his sleeves, walking side by side with Liu Hong, Wei Yuan's successor, Yushi Taiyou Du Yushi, and leader of Dagengren, on the spacious road paved with bluestone slabs.

In front is the Meridian Gate.

There are guards standing guard in the distance, the imperial army patrolling, Wang Shoufu’s gaze, chasing the imperial army boredly, after a while, he retracted his gaze and said slowly:

"Your Majesty has exposed the weakness of love reputation too obviously, how to fight these old foxes?

"Your Majesty is still too young."

"He has the heart to be a strong country, but his level is a little worse." Liu Hong made no secret of his disdain.

Wang Shoufu took a cold breath, his nose was red and cold, and said lightly:

"The methods are immature and the scheming is not deep enough. All of these can be learned. Changing to the Fourth Prince is no better than him."

Liu Hong said without thinking: "It's a pity that His Royal Highness Huaiqing is a female stream."

Wang Shoufu sneered and said: "Erlang's memorial to the court to call for donations was given by His Royal Highness Huaiqing. Do you think I don't know?"

Liu Hong said frankly: "Master Shoufu has eyes like a torch."

"Instead of letting merchants make donations alone, but let Your Majesty launch a group of ministers to set an example, she is quite farsighted."

Wang Shoufu snorted, his face turned cold:

"You tell Huaiqing that you want to try your own way in the future and don't use my future son-in-law as a gunman. Your Majesty is destined to lose face because of this incident. At that time, I will not be angry with Erlang."

Liu Hong did not speak.

The two walked side by side for a while, Wang Shoufu calmed down his anger and said lightly:

"The imperial treasury was empty and the household department was unsustainable. The reason why your majesty did not move the money and grain was to guard against the rebels in Yunzhou."

Liu Hong said in a deep voice:

"But if the disaster is allowed to expand, the number of refugees will increase, and the disaster will be everywhere. This is also what the rebels are willing to see. Embezzlement of military resources will be in the arms of the rebels. If you do not embezzle, the rebels are still happy to see it.

"Although I have never dealt with Xu Pingfeng, I know that this person is clever and makes my scalp numb."

If you can't pay for the war, the army will be mutiny.

Regardless of the disaster situation, if the growth rate of refugees is not curbed, the situation will become more and more chaotic, and the consequences of a fire in the backyard will be equally terrible.

"His Royal Highness Huaiqing is also not allowed to think about it." Liu Hong sighed: "I thought that after the first emperor went, the court would usher in a new era. Who knew it was a mess."

Wang Shoufu looked far away, seemingly moved.

After a while, he said solemnly:

"If this plan is feasible, it can really solve the urgent need. But she has overlooked a key point. I want these old foxes and officials of all classes to willingly pay for their pockets, and they need a person from the town.

"Looking at the court, Jianzheng counts one, Xiandi counts one, Wei Yuan and I add up count one, Xu Qi'an counts one.

"Jianzheng does not care about the political affairs, the first emperor and Wei Yuan are both deceased. Xu Qi'an traveled the rivers and lakes. I asked Erlang a while ago, and he has no news yet."

Liu Hong was shocked. Wang Shoufu had already seen through and understood this strategy long ago. Before anyone noticed it, he had already inquired and deliberated secretly.

...........

Gyeongsu Palace.

Emperor Yongxing arrived with a big push, surrounded by eunuchs, and entered Jingxiu Palace.

He paused in the yard, took a deep breath, and pinched his eyebrows to make his expression less serious.

With a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, he walked across the yard and crossed the threshold to see the mother and concubine and sister who had been waiting for a long time.

Concubine Chen, who ordered the maid to heat up the dishes several times, whispered:

"Although your majesty is prosperous in the spring and autumn, you must also pay attention to the dragon body and don't overwork yourself."

"Mother, don't worry about it. The Lingbao View is a nourishing and nourishing panacea." Lin'an beckons and smiles like a flower:

"Brother Emperor, come and eat."

Emperor Yongxing smiled, swept away the gloom of the court, and began to eat under the service of the maid.

After taking a few bites, he chatted with his mother, concubine and siblings about the short stories of his parents.

"A few days ago, I heard from Zhi'er that a little girl came from Shangshufang, and she was from Wang Shoufu's mansion. Changkang accidentally provoked her and was beaten.

"Zhier avenged his cousin, and was beaten full of bags."

"Zhier" is the third son of Emperor Yongxing, ten years old this year.

Changkang is the second son of Lin'an sixth brother.

When Chen Guifei heard that her grandson had been beaten, her expression changed drastically, her eyebrows erected: "Why don't I know this?"

"I have suppressed it."

"Why?"

Chen Guifei said suspiciously, unable to understand what her son did.

Emperor Yongxing gave a wry smile: "That was Xu Qi'an's young girl, but fortunately, she was sent out of the palace that day, and she didn't read the book."

Concubine Chen was silent immediately.

As everyone knows, Tai Fu escaped a catastrophe.

After eating for a while, Chen Guifei said softly, seeing Emperor Yongxing always depressed:

"Your Majesty, are there any difficulties in the center?"

Emperor Yongxing hesitated for a while, unable to sigh:

"The national treasury is running out of money, and the war has just been finished. The granary reserves in various places are insufficient, and they are unable to provide relief to the victims. As a result, the refugees are everywhere, turning into gangs.

"My country is a mess."

He also explained the setbacks he encountered in calling for donations.

Emperor Yongxing squeezed his eyebrows, "I only know how difficult it is to sit in this position. Everyone is an enemy in the hall."

Although he has not taken the throne soon, he has already felt the obstacles and the involuntary powerlessness of government orders.

This is something that I couldn't experience personally when I was a prince.

The atmosphere on the table suddenly became dense.

Emperor Yongxing said hurriedly: "Don't think about these bad things, mother and concubine, children and ministers will offer you a cup."

After drinking, Emperor Yongxing picked up some relaxed topics, trying to make Chen Guifei laugh and make the family dinner easier.

Lin'an looked at his brother silently, a little sad.

In the past, she felt that the prince's brother wanted to inherit the throne, and many ideas and concepts made her uncomfortable.

The time has passed, and after so many things, she has matured a lot.

The prince brother has such a deep obsession with the throne. Apart from his own desire for the throne, most of the reasons are due to their mother and daughter.

The mother concubine was suppressed by the queen and couldn't lift her head. She was often bullied by Huaiqing. In addition, the four princes were backed by Wei Yuan in the court.

The elder brother of the prince wants to fight for his breath, so that the mother concubine can lift her head up in front of the queen, so that she can be brave in front of Huaiqing.

...........

After lunch, Lin'an went to Dexin Garden in the name of walking and digesting.

As soon as I entered the site of Huaiqing, I saw a handsome young official coming out of it.

My eyes are like stars, my lips are red, my teeth are white, and my cheeks are much harder, making me look more manly.

"Weichen met His Royal Highness."

Xu Xinnian stopped and gave his hand.

"Why Lord Xu is here?"

Lin'an's affectionate and charming peach blossom eyes turned, looking up and down.

Xu Xinnian said: "The minister came to His Royal Highness Huaiqing to discuss knowledge."

After a pause, he asked: "By the way, has my eldest brother sent a letter to His Highness recently?"

When Lin'an heard it, I felt very resentful and snorted:

"Who is your eldest brother, I don't know it, don't block the way."

The skirt flies up, passing by Xu Xinnian.

Gou Mincai left Beijing for more than a month, and there was no news. He clearly didn't take her to heart.

All the way to the inner courtyard, under the guidance of the maid, came to the inner hall and saw Huaiqing sitting behind the case and drinking tea.

"I just met Xu Cijiu outside, what did he do here?"

Lin'an asked.

Generally speaking, those who can be invited into the house by the princess are people with extraordinary relationships.

Women don’t care, but men are basically confidants.

But Lin'an knew that Xu Xinnian was the future son-in-law of the Wang family, and Wang Shoufu was a member of her emperor's brother.

"Discuss knowledge."

Huaiqing casually asked, "What are you doing again."

She doesn't welcome Lin'an very much. This sister is chirping like a sparrow. If you don't pay attention, she will fly over and peck you in the face.

Although the combat power is still as scumbag as ever, it is the Emperor Yongxing who is now in power after all.

Huaiqing will be somewhat apprehensive.

Although Lin'an was defeated and unconvinced, he never complained to Emperor Yongxing.

Lin'an came to the case, raised the skirt and sat down, and said:

"Huaiqing, you have many ideas, please ask a question."

Huaiqing nodded coldly.

Lin'an talked about the donation once, and frowned slightly:

"What can you do to make those old foxes pay for it?"

Huai Qing said indifferently: "Others want to grab your wealth, do you give it or not?"

Lin'an thought for a while and said: "It depends on who, if the dog minion asks me for money, my palace will give it."

Huaiqing took a sip of tea, "So, people who are not close to you can't. Your emperor brother asks for money, of course he will come."

Lin'an thinks it makes sense~IndoMTL.com~ tentatively asked: "Intimidation?"

Huaiqing shook his head:

"This is the best way, and the most stupid way. The stupidity is that you can't go down and do it, otherwise the ruling and the opposition will scream, and there will be a huge backlash.

"But some people can do it, but the officials are helpless."

Lin'an's eyes lit up: "Who?"

Huaiqing was once again disappointed with this younger sister's wisdom, and it was really boring to fight with her.

"What do you think of the supervision?"

"Okay..."

"What if it was the North King of the Dafeng No. 1 Takeo Town?"

"Yes, okay..."

"Who is the first taker of Dafeng now?"

Lin'an finally understood, suddenly realized, my little hand patted the table:

"You mean dog minions!"

Immediately collapsed his face, and said disappointedly: "But he is not in the capital."
