Chapter 324
Nangong Mo held her in his arms distressedly, watched her support her waist, satisfaction and mixed with some chagrin and self-blame flashed in his eyes, he put him in his arms, and pressed her waist for her.

Seeing the person leaning on his shoulder and squinting his eyes comfortably, Nangong Mo's heart softened.

"What I tell you must be taken seriously in your heart, and don't take it seriously."

"Understood, have you eaten? Let's rest with me for a while. I've been tired all morning and I don't have time to accompany you all day long."

Nangong Mo lowered his head and looked at Gu Qingcheng who was nagging with his fingers. The years were so peaceful, he wished that time would stop at this moment, without disputes or calculations.

Gu Qingcheng wanted to say that she didn't need to accompany her, but when she opened her eyes, she saw that Nangong Mo's eyes were blue and black, and the gully between his brows hid unresolved worries. Bian changed his tune temporarily.

"Okay, for your sincerity."

Nangong Mo really loves this arrogant little guy. He always has a cold and unapproachable look on his face. Later, he realized that he is just a kitten who can stretch out his paws to scratch people. The belly is smooth for people, and when she is happy, she will take the initiative to approach and act like a baby.

But only he can see this kind of contrast, and this kind of small interest that belongs only to their husband and wife makes him feel in a trance that they may be an ordinary couple.

"Superintendent, many adults have come to the imperial study, and they all said that they want to see the emperor to discuss important matters."

Fulin is Laifu's apprentice, and he usually waits in the imperial study or the imperial garden, so he won't run around in his spare time, especially during the lunch break, when Laifu saw the land rushing over, he just wanted to reprimand him with a sullen face. Two sentences, but the other party rushed ahead of him.

"But... I know."

After hesitating for a while, Laifu decided to report the truth to the emperor, because this is also the time for the ministers to eat and rest, and they will never bother them if there is nothing to do. Such a big battle today should not be a trivial matter.

"knock knock"

"Your Majesty, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials is asking to see you in the Imperial Study Room, please discuss matters with the Emperor."

The annoying knock on the door woke up the two people who were sleeping on their feet. Nangong Mo moved a bit, frowning displeasedly, resting his right hand on his forehead, his temples throbbing, feeling a little bored and flustered, feeling like Like something bad is going to happen.

Gu Qingcheng moved a bit, put her head on Nangong Mo's chest, and then got out again, stretched out her hand to smooth the wrinkles on his forehead, and said in a dreamy soft voice.

"It should be very important to come to you at this time. Don't be angry, and don't get angry. I will wait for you to have dinner together in the evening, and we will be together any night."

This soothing action made Nangong Mo laugh, and the annoyance of being disturbed disappeared a lot.

"understood."

It seems that the frequency of saying this is getting higher and higher these days, but he is also willing to do so.

"My Majesty, today I received an urgent report from Jiangnan Shoudao that a sudden plague broke out in the surrounding areas of Jinling, and many people died."

The Minister of the Household Department knelt in front of the imperial table, leaning extremely low, and next to him were the Minister of the Ministry of Rites and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. For things like the plague, none of the three ministries could escape responsibility.

"When did it happen, how was it controlled, and how was it dealt with locally."

Nangong Mo's tone was neither happy nor angry, making it impossible to hear his mood at the moment, but the more he was like this, the more trembling the three people kneeling underneath became.

"Back, back to the emperor, it was just two sudden cases in a small town. After the usual treatment, I didn't continue to follow up. But later, similar cases were gradually found in the surrounding area. When the county magistrate found out, they were already dead. Dozens of people."

"Chen, I just received the news."

Hubu Shangshu didn't lie, it's not his turn to intervene in local affairs, the people below have made arrangements, but now seeing that it can't be suppressed, he handed it to him, Hubu Shangshu feels bitter.

"My lord Wang, my lord Zhao, what about you? Didn't you hear any rumors before?"

Nangong Mo's voice cooled down, with obvious anger already on his face. He re-read the papers sent by the officials below, but these immediate superiors said they hadn't received any news.

"Go back to the emperor, my minister, I think this is just a trivial matter."

Hubu Shangshu was the first person to receive the news, but the matter was not serious at the time, he did not think about the direction, nor did he take this matter to heart, and he did not even hand over the paper to the emperor, but how could he Thinking that such a big leak can be caused by a negligence.

The Minister of Rites trembled and did not speak.

"Okay, that's great, I raise you all for nothing, right?"

With a bang, Nangong Mo slapped the teacup on the ground, and the warm tea splashed the faces of the three people opposite, but none of them dared to raise their hands to wipe it, so they could only lower their heads lower.

Nangong Mo knew that this was not the time to be angry, but he just got angry when he saw these people kneeling there like quails one by one.

"Go to the Tai Hospital to send an order, and then you can take the medicinal materials and rush to Jinling, and then go to the Ministry of War to write a book and select two teams to go together."

"Yes."

Laifu bowed his head, turned around and went out.

In the huge imperial study room, there was only the rhythmic clicking sound of Nangong Mo's knuckles tapping on the table. The three ministers kneeling below could only silently reduce their sense of existence, trying their best not to involve themselves.

"Master Li, when are you going to tell me about the drought in Jiangzhou?"

Hubu Shangshu trembled when his name was called out, but he didn't expect to mention this matter. He had been prepared for a long time, and blurted out words of defense with trembling lips.

"Reporting to the emperor, this year is a drought in the Jiangzhou area, but it is not serious, the affected area is still small, and it is still under the control of the states and counties, so it is not used to disturb the emperor's ears."

Hubu Shangshu noticed that Nangong Mo's eyes on him were as hot and unbearable as the essence, but he still supported his body so as not to tremble too much, so as not to expose his guilty conscience at this time.

Originally, even if there was a real problem with the natural disaster, it would not have anything to do with the officials below. At most, it would be a crime of negligence or poor control, but the bad thing is that the Minister of the Ministry of Households has hidden some careful thoughts, which cannot be seen when the world is in peace. If he encounters a checkpoint and the Ministry of Households cannot come up with money, it will be his fault.

Moreover, the drought in Jiangzhou was not considered a natural disaster at all, it was just a way for the poor to make money, so he kept suppressing it and did not report it. Moreover, as an old minister left behind by the late emperor, he didn't think Nangong Mo could do anything to him.

But he forgot that the current Nangong Mo was no longer the young emperor who had to look at people's faces when he gave any order, and even the queen mother avoided his edge, but unfortunately, he hadn't seen it through.
