Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 503: Heavy Snow (1)


After the palace banquet, Li Jing and Lu Mingyu returned to the East Palace together.

At the end of the cold winter, the weather is surprisingly cold and the wind blows. Blow out some alcohol.

"Looking at the weather, it might be snowing soon." Lu Mingyu opened his mouth and said.

Li Jing was absent-minded and hummed casually. He took off his cloak and put it on Lu Mingyu.

Lu Mingyu's heart warmed, and she smiled softly: "I have two bodies, strong firepower, not cold at all. It's you, don't freeze."

Li Jing was not in the mood to laugh and stretched his arms around Lu Mingyu's shoulders.

Brother Jue and Sister Xuan are used to being squeezed between relatives and mothers. Qi Yun quickly grabbed it and whispered, "Father and mother have something to say, Mother Yun will take you back first."

Unwillingly, brother and sister Xuan was coaxed to leave first.

Lu Mingyu and Li Jing followed slowly and whispered.

"I know you're not happy." Lu Mingyu whispered, "Today, the emperor's grandmother suddenly talked about choosing a concubine, and the emperor's father clearly moved. Within a year or two, there will definitely be new people entering the palace. I It's not worth being a mother."

"It's just that, not to mention things like this in the heavenly family, it's also a common occurrence in the palace of officials, eunuchs and nobles. Those who do business and open a shop have a lot of money in their pockets and want to marry a concubine. What's more, he is a prince!"

Before busy fighting, I didn't have time or energy to toss. Now that the world has calmed the hearts of returning home from all over the world, it is not uncommon for him to have some arrogant and extravagant thoughts as the Son of Heaven.

A trace of disgust flashed in Li Jing's eyes, and he whispered: "I am a son, I can't control my father and accept the palace concubine. In the future, I will be filial to my mother and queen."

Lu Mingyu hummed: "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. The queen mother is now open-minded and does not feel self-pity. As long as you can stand firm and don't take these things to heart, you will live the same life. "

Li Jing stopped and looked at Lu Mingyu.

Lu Mingyu also stopped and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why are you looking at me like this?"

Li Jing stared into Lu Mingyu's eyes and said softly, "Xiaoyu, let's be a loving couple for a lifetime. Okay?"

Without waiting for Lu Mingyu to nod, she continued: "I know you don't believe in eachother, so I never say sweet words. In the next three years, five years, ten years, eight years, twenty years and thirty years. Take your time. Just follow me."

This situation will never be negative.

The sky is full of cold stars, falling into Li Jing's black eyes.

Lu Mingyu's eyes were slightly warm, and she nodded after a while: "Okay."

Li Jing smiled, took Lu Mingyu's hand, and walked forward slowly. Lu Mingyu rested his head on Li Jing's shoulder. The two figures cuddled together, and the shadows gradually merged into one.

……

The new year of the thirteenth year of Yongjia came in a white snow.

Since the first day of the new year, snowflakes have been floating.

The snow was flying, the branches were like white crystals, and the ground was covered with thick snow. One foot stepped down, a deep foot socket, the snow submerged to the calf.

The nobles, who burn silver frost charcoal basins, have a stove in their sleeves, and wear thick cloaks, enjoy a rare snow scene in a few years. When the interest comes, warm a pot of wine, burn a piece of incense, make the beautiful maid study ink, or write a poem or a painting, it is very happy.

For the poor people, the heavy snow that has not stopped for several days means cold and hunger.

On the sixth day of the new year, the governor of the capital sent an emergency report that two counties near the capital were hit by snow.

This New Year, Emperor Yongjia has not been stable, and Li Jing and several princes also entered the Wenhua Hall to discuss with the ministers on disaster relief and relief.

Old Qiao Ge's eyes were red, and his voice was hoarse: "Your Majesty, in the past ten years, there has never been such a heavy snowfall. The people in the city are still rich, with charcoal to burn and food to wrap their stomachs. In the prefectures and counties, some poor people have their houses sealed by the wind and snow, and they are about to freeze to death and starve to death.”

"The disaster relief must be done as soon as possible." The noble noble book, who was also full of bloodshot eyes, took over the words: "The minister has called all the officials of the household department and asked them to liquidate the treasury silver and grain to prepare for disaster relief."

The eldest prince was on duty in the Ministry of Household, and he had to endure it for two days. His crippled right leg was aching.

With the strength of the first prince, he will never show it. He even opened his mouth to agree immediately: "Father, the son and the minister also live in the official office with everyone in the household, and will return to the house after the disaster relief is over."

Emperor Yongjia had no intention to say more and nodded slightly.

The Ministry of Officials Yu Shangshu said solemnly: "I ask the emperor to immediately issue a decree for disaster relief."

Emperor Yongjia looked solemn: "I also have this plan. Now the snow has not stopped, and the roads are blocked. If I want to send money and food, I can't get out of the city."

The Ministry of War Yang Shangshu took over the words without hesitation: "This matter is handed over to the Ministry of War. The minister immediately dispatched people from the military and horse divisions of the five cities to clean up the official road."

Emperor Yongjia nodded: "Okay, I will give you two days. Within two days, be sure to clean up the snow on the official road 50 miles outside the city, and ensure that the grain and horses are transported out of the city. Li Xian, you have to deal with this matter. and supervise.”

The fourth prince took orders immediately.

Emperor Yongjia glanced at the crown prince Li Jing and the third prince Li Hao: "The snow disaster in Pi County and Zheng County is severe, and someone has to preside over the disaster relief. Are you two willing to go?"

Li Jing and Li Hao responded in unison: "My son will take orders."

The First Prince glanced at them silently.

Going to the disaster-stricken counties to provide disaster relief in person is a good thing to show your face and easy to gain fame. It's a pity that his useless right leg struggled to even walk in the freezing cold and snow, so he couldn't get out of the capital at all.

The fourth prince is much calmer than the eldest prince.

Li Jing is the Crown Prince of the Great Wei Dynasty, and it is justifiable to go to disaster relief. Li Hao's holy family is strong and shrewd, and he can't ask himself. He will be at ease as his errand, and stop arguing with his brothers.

Emperor Yongjia said solemnly, "You all go back and make some preparations, and leave immediately after the official road is cleared."

……

After Li Jing returned to the East Palace, he immediately summoned the officials of the East Palace.

Fang Zizhan immediately said, "I will go with His Highness."

Zhou Li is unwilling to be resigned: "I will also go."

Zhao Rui's eyes also lit up: "I want to travel far away from Beijing~IndoMTL.com~ How can I be without me! I will go with His Royal Highness."

Li Jing glanced at Zhao Rui: "The disaster relief is a multi-faceted matter, not a trivial matter. Let alone play with the mind. Once you go, you have to obey the orders, and you have to endure to the end no matter how hard you are. ."

Zhao Rui: "..."

Zhao Rui scratched his head and hesitated: "Otherwise, I will stay in the East Palace, let Li Yan go!"

Li Yan was enraged: "I planned to go. Who asked you to open your mouth."

Zhao Rui smiled shyly.

Li Jing looked helpless.

There is nothing wrong with Zhao Rui, it is just the habit of a dandy boy. He has to eat, drink and sleep wherever he goes. It is best to have fun like fighting **** and running dogs and betting on horses.

"Okay, Zhao Rui stays here, you three, leave Beijing with me."
