913.Chapter 913

The four provinces of Shandong, Shanxi, Henan and Shaanxi were the most severely affected by the drought. THE FULL TEXT OF THE LATEST CHAPTER IS READ WWW.HUBEI, GANSU, SHUDI, ETC., BUT IT IS NOT AS STRICT AS THE PREVIOUS FOUR PROVINCES.

Yuxi was exhausted for the disaster, and Yan Wushuang's life was also not easy. Shanxi, Shandong and other places submitted dozens of letters to the capital a day, asking the imperial court for disaster relief.

Yan Wushuang threw a letter of excerpts from Shanxi back on the desk after reading it, and said to a minister: "The people in Shanxi, Henan and other places are now almost out of turf roots, and some have begun to eat Guanyin soil. ”

Second Master Lu said: "This year's harvest in Jiangnan is good, and we should go to Jiangnan to buy grain and transport it to the disaster area." "That's a fair idea.

Jiang Wenrui, the head of the household department, said stiffly: "There are only 980,000 taels of silver left in the treasury. "Even if all this money were taken out, it would be useless.

Among the six books, the hardest one now is the Hubu book. Jiang Wenrui has been able to sit in this position for more than two years and has not come down, and he is also very determined.

As soon as these words fell, all the others were silent, and disaster relief was to spend money, and there was no money to take for disaster relief.

Yan Wushuang said: "Because the northwest was warned in advance, it was speculated that there might be a drought this year, so they stored a lot of grain. I'm going to send a messenger to the northwest to borrow grain, which of you would like to go?"

When they heard this, they all shrank their heads. They had already gotten the news and knew that the grain granaries in the northwest could not be placed. But no matter how much grain there is in the northwest, it will not lend them anything.

After a while, Second Master Lu raised his head and said, "Lord Wang, the drought in the northwest is also very strict, and the imperial court may not be able to borrow grain from them. "Whoever is sent anyway will not be sent to be this messenger, so Second Master Lu is not worried.

Yan Wushuang said expressionlessly: "If you don't try, how do you know if you can't succeed?"

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu stood up and said, "Lord Wang, I think it's perfect to let Han Gong borrow grain." Although it is said that the Han family broke off the father-daughter relationship with the Korean Gong, the Korean Gong is the biological daughter of the Korean Gong. ”

Everyone felt that this Ministry of Rites Shangshu was in a bad brain, and no one could send Han Jingyan to go. Princess Pingxi and Han Jingyan, those are enemies, not father and daughter.

Yan Wushuang said with a cold face: "Who has a better candidate?" Han Jingyan, a person who has more than enough success and more than failure, how dare he use it.

Lord Geng, the secretary of the ministry, looked at Jiang Wenrui and said: "Lord Jiang is the uncle of the King of Pingxi, and his eldest son has made great contributions in the northwest. I think that if Lord Jiang goes to borrow grain, King Pingxi should give this face. "The officials and Jiang Wenrui have not dealt with each other, and they have been fighting openly and secretly for many years. It would be great if Jiang Wenrui could be eliminated this time.

Jiang Wenrui hated to stab the official department Shangshu to death, but his expression remained unchanged and said, "Lord Wang, since the death of the Yun family, my relationship with the Yun family has been estranged. King Pingxi even thought that I had killed the Yun family, and every time he saw me, he was angry. If you send me to the northwest, not only will you not be able to borrow food, but you will also offend the king of Pingxi. In order not to go to the northwest, Jiang Wenrui also worked hard, and he couldn't cover up the ugliness of his family on weekdays, which would take the initiative to break out.

Yan Wushuang said: "This time, you are going to the northwest to borrow grain on behalf of the imperial court, and there is no personal grudge. Yunqing acts uprightly and will not embarrass you because of old things. ”

Jiang Wenrui complained bitterly in his heart, he was not worried that Yunqing would kill him, after all, his eldest son was in the northwest. If you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, if you look at Brother Fu'er, Yunqing will not be killed. But others may not. It is a long way from the capital to the northwest, and the road is not very smooth, so it is very likely that you will not be able to come back.

Taining Hou stood up and said: "Lord, I think it is inappropriate to rashly send Qin to the northwest to borrow grain, it will make King Pingxi and Princess Pingxi feel that the court is persecuting. In this way, it is contrary to our original intention. ”

Yan Wushuang asked, "Then according to Taining Hou's meaning, how should this matter be handled properly?"

The meaning of the Marquis of Taining was naturally to borrow grain from Yunqing in the name of the imperial court first. If Yunqing agrees, he will send someone to transport grain at that time. If Yunqing disagrees, then there is no need to say anything.

Second Master Lu also agreed with the opinion of the Marquis of Taining: "In this way, even if the king of Pingxi does not agree to borrow grain, it will not damage the face of the imperial court." "People with normal brains know that it is impossible for the northwest to lend grain to the imperial court. Of course, Second Master Lu didn't think that Yan Wushuang's decision was wrong. Because he knew that borrowing grain was just an excuse for Yan Wushuang, he must have other plans.

Yan Wushuang thought for a moment and said, "Then that's it for the time being." "Yan Wushuang deliberately proposed to borrow grain from the northwest, but he actually wanted to divert some of the pressure.

Back at the palace, Meng Nian told Yan Wushuang a bad thing: "Lord Wang, I just got a news that someone secretly dug up the potatoes in the field to eat, and died. The doctor diagnosed that the man had eaten poisonous potatoes before he died. "Liaodong has not been affected by the drought, as in previous years. However, the people are having a hard time, and many people do not have enough to eat. When he heard that the artichoke could be eaten, he secretly dug it up and ate it.

Yan Wushuang didn't think about it and said, "Impossible." If the artichoke is poisonous, the people in the northwest have eaten it, so why haven't they seen a single one poisoned. ”

Meng Nian also just got the news, and the specific situation is not clear: "Lord Wang, this matter is true, and there will be no mistakes." Lord, I'm worried that this artichoke is not suitable for cultivation in Liaodong?"

Yan Wushuang shook his head and said: "This is impossible, I haven't heard of anything that becomes poison when planted in another place, there must be a reason we don't know about it." ”

After thinking about it, Yan Wushuang asked Meng Nian to ask the imperial doctor: "Maybe they know the reason." ”

After understanding the details, Imperial Doctor Zhang pondered and said to Meng Nian: "This artichoke is not ripe yet, it may be poisonous, and when he matures, it will not be toxic." However, these are just my guesses, and whether this is the reason will have to wait for the potatoes to mature. ”

Meng Nian was a little strange and said, "Unripe artichoke can be poisonous?" It was the first time he had heard such a thing.

Imperial Doctor Zhang nodded and said, "There are some plants like this. "Imperial Doctor Zhang is now only treating artichoke as a medicinal herb, not food.

Yan Wushuang heard Meng Nian's relay and said, "I'm afraid that's the reason." "It doesn't make sense that what is grown in the northwest can be eaten, but what is grown in Liaodong is poisonous.

Meng Nian asked about borrowing grain: "Lord Wang, why do you want to borrow grain from the northwest?" He didn't know anything impossible, how could the prince not know!

Yan Wushuang said: "If these victims know that there is a large amount of grain stored in the northwest, our pressure will be less. "The victims from Shandong, Shanxi and other places have all flocked to the capital.

After speaking, Yan Wushuang had a sneer on his face and said, "By the way, I also pierced Han Yuxi's hypocritical mask." ”

When Meng Nian heard this, he was silent. It doesn't matter whether Han Yuxi is a hypocrite or not, the important thing is that this trick can really help them transfer a lot of pressure.

The letter of borrowing grain from the northwest in the name of the emperor did not reach Yuxi and Yunqing. This letter first came to General Liu Yongnan, and after reading the letter, Liu Yong scolded directly: "Raised by a bitch, borrow grain? Emperor Xiao'er and Yan Wushuang's brains are flooded?"

The subordinate said, "General, what should you do with those people?" Knowing the contents of this letter, no one was not angry. These dog officials, there is no good thing.

Liu Yongnan said: "Slaughtered." "The soldiers who came out of Yucheng were very disgusted with the court officials. Because they have suffered too much loss and suffered too much anger on these people.

After speaking, Liu Yongnan directly burned the emperor's handwritten letter. Then he wrote it down in the fold, and after half an hour, he sent it to Pickaxe City.

Yuxi saw Liu Yongnan's excerpt, sneered, handed the excerpt to Yunqing, and said: "Knowing that we won't borrow grain, he also specially sent a handwritten letter from the emperor, he is deliberately responding to us!" Liu Yongnan dared to burn the emperor's handwritten letter, just knowing that Yunqing and Yuxi would not borrow grain.

Yunqing is also annoyed by Yan Wushuang now. It is true that their husband and wife have stored a large amount of grain, but the northwest is also a hard-hit area, and these grains are the foundation of stability in the northwest. The imperial court wants their food, let's go to the next life!" Yun Qing said: "Don't worry about this madman. ”

Yuxi said with some worry: "We can ignore Yan Wushuang." However, the people in Shanxi and Henan who were affected by the disaster will definitely all rush to the northwest at that time. ”

Yunqing said: "They can't come to the northwest. "The border cities have all been closed, and it is more difficult to figure out the Guò level and enter the northwest than to ascend to the sky.

Yuxi said in a hoarse voice: "Yang Duoming's letter said that there has been a phenomenon of cannibalism in Henan. It's only a minority now, but I'm worried that if it continues, it will become the norm by then. ”

Yun Qing said with an immobile expression: "I will not let such a tragedy happen in the northwest. "They have done a lot of preparations, and a lot of people still died in Linzhou and Yanzhou during this time. The people in the northwest cannot be fully rescued, and they have no way to take care of the victims in Henan, Shanxi and other places.

Yuxi thought about the upcoming flood, and said in a low voice: "God really doesn't give the people a way to live!" Yuxi felt that her previous life was really in vain, and she didn't know about such a big drought, but she only knew that there was a flood in the south of the Yangtze River. If she had known that there was such a big drought, she would have been more prepared.

In fact, this can't be all blamed on Yuxi, mainly because the situation was special at that time. Those who fled were from the provinces, and they spoke in tongues. Even the Jiangnan flood was heard from a little boy who could speak official language.

Yunqing patted Yuxi on the shoulder and said, "No, we will definitely be able to get through this difficulty." ”

Yuxi hummed and said, "Yes, we will definitely be able to get through this difficulty." "She can't control the people in Jiangnan and Henan, but she will do her best to minimize the casualties in the northwest.
