Chapter 219 My son is willing to issue a military order

Emperor Xiao looked at Xiao Rongxuan. Although Xiao Rongxuan failed to repair the house before, which caused the collapse of Liangshui Lane, he was asked to think about his mistakes at home.

But after the early dynasty was restored, Emperor Xiao did not mention the previous matter again, but acquiesced in Xiao Rongxuan's return to the dynasty.

"What are your ideas?" Emperor Xiao asked.

"I would like to report to my father that my son is not very talented and has little knowledge. I don't have any good ideas at the moment. However, I feel that as the crown prince, my brother should serve the country and share his worries at this time. What's more, my brother led people to provide disaster relief before. Now that we have experience, why not leave this matter to the Emperor's brother? I believe that the Emperor's brother will be able to handle it properly." Xiao Rongxuan lowered his head slightly and spoke.

Oh, the incident in Liangshui Lane had given Xiao Jinzhi a lot of publicity. There were even rumors among the courtiers that His Highness the Crown Prince was worthy of being the Crown Prince and that He had to look at His Highness the Crown Prince at the critical moment.

In this case, he simply put this matter on Xiao Jinzhi's head. He wanted to see if Xiao Jinzhi could solve it properly.

If something goes wrong in the middle, he will naturally have something to make an issue of!

As soon as Xiao Rongxuan said these words, almost all the courtiers' eyes fell on him and Xiao Jinzhi.

The third prince seemed to be praising His Highness the Crown Prince, but in fact, he was causing a big trouble for His Highness the Crown Prince.

Emperor Xiao's eyes were deep, and after a moment of silence, he looked at Xiao Jinzhi, "Prince, what do you think?"

Xiao Jinzhi walked out of the team unhurriedly, "I would like to inform my father, but I am not sure."

Xiao Rongxuan immediately spoke: "Brother Emperor, after all, this matter concerns so many people, you..."

"But I am willing to take it." Xiao Jinzhi continued, interrupting Xiao Rongxuan.

"Brother Huang, are you serious about what you said?" Xiao Rongxuan was overjoyed. Hmm, Xiao Jinzhi was very arrogant. He had not even used the provoking method yet, yet he actually agreed like this.

"Of course I take it seriously." Xiao Jinzhi glanced at Xiao Rongxuan leisurely, "After all, I am the prince, and I must put the people first at critical moments. Unlike the third brother, even if he is negligent, he will not feel guilty and can still stand with a smile on his face. Above this court."

"Xiao Jinzhi!" Xiao Rongxuan's expression changed instantly.

"Presumptuous." Xiao Jinzhi looked at him coldly, "Third brother, I am the crown prince. It is not your turn to call me by my name."

Xiao Rongxuan choked hard.

"Okay." Emperor Xiao said with a cold face, "The court is not the place for you brothers to fight."

As he said that, he looked at Xiao Jinzhi again, "Since the prince is willing to take charge of this matter, from now on, it will be left to the prince to appease and treat the people and maintain the stability of the imperial city. You must do your best and do your job well."

"Father, I think some rewards and punishments need to be set in order to make the emperor's brother work harder. If the emperor's brother can do things well, he cannot be allowed to do his work in vain." Xiao Rongxuan spoke again.

Although the second half of the sentence was not spoken, the courtiers were all as clear as a mirror.

It seems that the third prince is planning to completely break up with His Highness the Crown Prince openly.

The meaning of setting rewards and punishments is that if you do things well, you can reward them, but if you make mistakes, you will naturally be punished.

"Haha." Xiao Jinzhi chuckled, "Third brother attaches great importance to rewards and punishments. Could it be that he is reminding my father and all the courtiers that you have made great achievements in raising donations and repairing things before, but you have not yet been rewarded?"

Xiao Jinzhi deliberately emphasized the word reward and said it with profound meaning.

Xiao Rongxuan naturally heard the sarcasm and gritted his teeth secretly. "Brother Imperial, there is no need to be so arrogant. I know that there were indeed some improper arrangements in the repairs before, but no matter what, the previous donations and repairs to other places can be considered as equal to the merits and demerits, so why should Brother Imperial insist on insisting on this? Let go. Or..."

Xiao Rongxuan looked at Xiao Jinzhi sarcastically, "Although the emperor agreed to this matter, he did not intend to do his best. He just wanted to show that you care about the people, so he did not want any rewards or punishments."

At this time, there is no need to sugarcoat his relationship with Xiao Jinzhi.

What he wants to do is to seize every opportunity to pull Xiao Jinzhi from the position of prince.As for the harmony on the surface, he no longer cares about it and has nothing to pretend.

The courtiers' eyes lingered between the two, but no one spoke.

Feng Hanyi frowned tightly. Although he was cursing Xiao Rongxuan in his heart, looking at the look on Xiao Jinzhi's face, he was not sure what he was thinking, and finally did not stand up.

Emperor Xiao sat on the dragon chair with a complicated and deep expression, "Prince, what do you think?"

Xiao Jinzhi raised his head to look at Emperor Xiao, and after a moment he said seriously: "My son... I am willing to issue a military order."

……

After the court dispersed in the morning, the prince issued a military order, promising to properly provide disaster relief and resettlement for the people, which soon spread throughout the imperial city.

Those who were originally dissatisfied with the prince because of Xiao Jinzhi's past reputation were surprised and began to admire Xiao Jinzhi more and more.

"Have you made up your mind?" In the prince's house, Chu Huanyan stopped the pen in her hand and looked at Xiao Jinzhi seriously.

Over the years, Xiao Jinzhi deliberately pretended to be dissolute and romantic. In the final analysis, it was just because he knew the attitude of Emperor Xiao and Queen Wei towards him, so he deliberately concealed his edge.

But now that Xiao Jinzhi is doing this, it is equivalent to completely tearing apart the disguise he had kept for so many years.

"I've thought about it." Xiao Jinzhi sat down next to Chu Huanyan and said with a smile, "In the past, I just wanted to be in case, to protect myself, but I didn't want to have a head-on conflict with them. But. It’s different now. Since we need to investigate and uncover what happened back then, subsequent conflicts are inevitable, so there’s no need to continue hiding it.”

After all, no matter how capable or famous they are, even if he gives up the position of crown prince, they... can't let them live.

In fact, he had been waiting for Xiao Rongxuan to speak during this morning's court. After being notorious for so many years, he also needed a chance to sweep away the impression of the city and the people on him.

For this reason, he also specially sent some news to Xiao Rongxuan so that he could know how the courtiers "praised" him after the last incident in Liangshui Lane.

Chu Huanyan understood Xiao Jinzhi's thoughts and pointed to the paper in front of her.

"I have roughly calculated that the stored rice is enough to cope with the upcoming food shortage. There is no need to worry about this. However, after the cold disaster, diseases may appear, especially in Liangshui Lane, so we must take good precautions."

"Also, for those refugees who are gradually entering the imperial city, in order to prevent unrest, we need to find ways to properly resettle them. At the same time, it is best to send doctors and others to check them carefully to prevent anyone from getting sick and infecting others."

"It's best to prepare some decoctions to prevent epidemics and strengthen the body. Although it consumes manpower and material resources, it will be beneficial to the people. In addition, the reconstruction of houses..."

Chu Huanyan spoke carefully, and when she looked up, she found that Xiao Jinzhi was leaning on his chin and looking at her with a smile in his eyes.

Chu Huanyan reached out and patted Xiao Jinzhi, "Are you listening carefully?"
