Chapter 139

"Didn't your empress not allow ministers to marry wives?"

Of course, Zhao Cuo would not be so stupid as to answer her words, using the fire-raiser as a servant, a hundred of him would not be qualified to do so.

"It's two different things."

Queen Mother Zhao stood up and stretched coquettishly, then smiled lightly and walked in front of Young Master Zhao, raised a pair of lotus arms that bullied Shuang Saixue and hooked him around his neck.

"How many concubines do you want to take, and I can stop you?"

"I'm not that kind of person."

Zhao Cuo refused.

A concubine in this world can basically be regarded as a slave, who can be gifted or bought and sold by the master at will. The wife that the man is marrying is the mistress of all concubines.

So it shouldn't be false to say that the queen mother allowed him to take concubines, but he really didn't have this idea.He would not bring home a woman he didn't like, and on the contrary, he would not let his beloved be a concubine.Zhao Cuo is a gentleman recognized by Xiang Jing!
"Really not?"

The empress dowager approached him on tiptoe.

"Your Majesty has allowed me to marry more than one wife, and I will take it."

Gentlemen show their true colors!

"Humph!"

The smile on her face suddenly collapsed, she lowered her hand and pinched Zhao Cuo's waist, and said with a sneer:
"You still think of yourself as the emperor, why don't you be matched with the Sangong and the Sixth Courtyard, and a queen in each of the East Palace and the West Palace?"

"The minister was joking."

"Ah."

Of course, the Queen Mother Zhao would not be angry about this matter, she just took this opportunity to tease him, and the two of them played around for a while before getting down to business.

"The imperial envoys of the Palace have already gone to Guangping Mansion. The story of the Bajiang flood is probably true. It really is a leak."

She wrinkled her delicate little nose and said.

"Corruption in the official style of Quang Binh Mansion is a trivial matter, just change a group of people, but if the flood is not cured, I don't know how many people will die."

Zhao Cuo pursed his lower lip and said, according to the victims who complained, the 20 people in Hanoi County have already suffered countless deaths and injuries.

"Preventing temporary floods is not difficult, but the imperial court allocates a lot of money every year to control the bad water of the Bajiang River, but it still cannot be cut off."

Tai Yu's back was as sinking as water, and she glanced at the handsome young man beside her, and said suddenly:
"If the officials sent by the palace to Quang Binh Mansion are not effective this time, you can go there to control the water. If it is you, it will be okay?"

"I?"

Young Master Zhao fell into deep thought. Although he knew that if the entire Guangping Mansion were flooded, it would definitely reduce Dayu's national fortune, but he never wanted anyone to lose his life because of him.

"This kind of thing should be done by experienced seniors. I haven't read many classics on water control. I can't make fun of Wanmin's life."

He shook his head decisively.

"When you know the specific situation over there, I will let you go there to study and accumulate some experience as appropriate."

The Queen Mother said in an unquestionable tone.

"As ordered."

Her words fell right into Zhao's wrong hands. He didn't want to be bored with the female devil all day long. It would be best if he could act alone.The southern tour team advanced in an orderly manner, and nothing happened until nightfall.

When the camping in the barren mountains was revised, Grandpa Zhao was forced to go to bed.

The bad woman used him as a human pillow as if she was heading to the frozen river.

"I reward you with the most famous golden blue crab here."

Empress Dowager Luanjia successfully arrived at Anling, the city of Yannan Prefecture, on the second day. This city is close to Xiangjing, so it only took one day to get there. There is still half a month's journey to Quang Binh Prefecture.

Zhao Cuo was originally looking forward to the world-famous aquatic products in Anling City, but when he sat at the same table with the Queen Mother Dayu, he always wanted to eat food with tooth marks on it. Fortunately, he was used to it.

Yu Jia stayed here for two days and then set off again.

"It's raining."

Zhao Cuo sat on the horseback and looked up at the gray sky. It had been several days of traveling. Although there was still some distance from Quang Binh Mansion, it was difficult to see the good weather.

"Wouldn't the flood in Quang Binh be because of the continuous heavy rain?"

It turns out he was right.

"Master Liu Yue, the servant of the Ministry of Industry who was sent by the imperial envoy to Guangping Mansion, sent the secret package in an expedited [-] miles..."

"Bring it up!"

The words of the messenger outside the screen were interrupted. The Empress Dowager Zhao, who had just woken up, took the secret box passed up by Feiwu, and Zhao Cuo, who was also on the phoenix chariot, handed her the key.This sealed box is held by the courtiers and the queen mother each with a key. Recently, Mr. Zhao Xiaogong has been responsible for finding the key for the empress.

He now knows that there are 420 ministers in the Dayu Dynasty who have the right to play secret books.

It is no exaggeration to say that the empress dowager, who has so many courtiers obeying orders, completely controls the 400-year dynasty.

"It has reached this level..."

Empress Dowager Zhao never loosened her brows after opening the memorial.Zhao Cuo is very courageous now, sitting behind her without any shyness and watching the things described in the booklet.

He accurately found the key point from thousands of words. The heavy rain in Quang Binh province continued intermittently, and the hardest-hit Hanoi county and its surrounding areas were already strewn with dead bodies.

The natural disaster is a severe blow to the doomed dynasty!
"Zhao wrong, you are ready to go today."

The empress dowager said in a cold voice after pondering for a moment.

"I have given you some orders from the palace. After you arrive at Guangping Mansion, you will take off the black hats of the governor and the governor of the river. You will be in charge of the power of the mansion. You may not be able to control the water, but you can do benevolent things like disaster relief. made."

"Yes."

Zhao Cuo couldn't be happier with this damp seal.

"You won't disappoint Bengong, will you?"

The Empress Dowager Zhao looked at him with her majestic pale golden phoenix eyes.

"Please don't worry, ma'am."

Zhao Cuo nodded lightly.

"So nice."

The young queen mother cupped his face with a smile like a flower, and leaned forward to seal it, like a reward advanced to him.

"Guangping Mansion has been controlled by the people sent by the palace. You should not encounter any danger on this trip, but I will give you a hundred soldiers as guards. In addition, I will arrange for you a powerful servant. You Whatever you want to do, just let it go.”

"I understand."

Zhao Cuo suddenly felt that the female devil is really a comfortable boss. When assigning tasks to you, she can solve hidden dangers for you first, and gives all the power so that people can really have the final say.

Under the drizzle, the time soon came to the dark evening.

A small team headed by a four-horse-drawn carriage braved the night and left the southern patrol Luanjia.

It's great to write Ji Ming's name on the list of officials accompanying the southern tour before departure. It's also a good use of knowledge for me to take a few colleagues from the Execution Department to Quang Binh Mansion, but it's especially for me The guards arranged...'

Mr. Zhao Xiaogong sat on the spacious carriage obediently. Opposite him was a cloud of white mist that could only vaguely see the woman's graceful figure. On her lap was a half-sheathed cold long sword.
