The champion is my son

Chapter 54

Shangjing, imperial palace, court hall.

The main hall is simple and majestic, with carved railings and jade bricks, and colorful eaves, all of which are exquisite.

"If you have something to play, you have nothing to do." The chief eunuch shouted loudly.

There are several rows of courtiers standing under the steps, and their official uniforms are of different colors.

"The minister has the original play."

The emperor sat high, his face expressionless, but his eyes vivid.Already 46 years old, his majestic voice contained a hint of hoarseness: "What's the matter with Gu Aiqing?"

Gu Changfeng kowtowed to the emperor with his wat board, then stood up and said: "From April to July this year, Jinzhou and Hengzhou were severely drought-stricken. I thought it would last forever. Who would have thought? Hungry Ghost Festival At that time, there was a sudden heavy rain in the two prefectures for more than ten days, which caused floods, and the people were displaced and miserable. We ask the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry to immediately allocate food and go to the Taiyuan Hospital to relieve the disaster.”

"Why did you report this matter only now? I haven't received any news about such a big matter. What are you doing for dinner?" The emperor was furious when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, as early as June, we had already prepared for a severe drought, but I didn't expect that in July and a half, Jinzhou and Hengzhou would suddenly have heavy rains, causing the Ning River to flood and flooding. In addition, Jinzhou and Hengzhou Hengzhou is originally located in a remote place, and the news spread to Shangjing quickly, and it has been more than ten days, and it may be more than a month when our people arrive, Your Majesty cannot delay this matter any longer."

"Order to go on, order the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry to prepare immediately, and allocate food and medicinal materials to the disaster relief. We must negotiate with the local area, and there must be no unrest among the victims."

"The minister obeys the order." The Minister of the Ministry of Households and the Minister of the Ministry of Industry paid homage.

"Is there anything else important? Let me tell you quickly." The emperor frowned, fearing that something might happen again.

The ministers below looked at each other for a while, their lips squirmed, but they refused to speak to the emperor. The emperor could only say that there was nothing wrong.

At the end of the early dynasty, Prime Minister Gu Changfeng, Minister of Industry Li Tao and Minister of Household Shen Yan were left alone by the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this is an excerpt from Jinzhou. This flood is different from previous years. This heavy rain is really strange. It directly flooded most counties and villages in Jinzhou and Hengzhou. In addition, Jinzhou is located in a remote area with poor mountains and bad waters. , our food and resources may be difficult to reach." Li Tao, Secretary of the Ministry of Industry, cupped his hands.

"If you can't get there, you have to come, and you have to hurry up. These are two big states. Tianqi suddenly encountered such a catastrophe. If we can't get a good solution, won't it be cold to the hearts of the world." The emperor put it on hold heavily. Next fold.

"Your Majesty, the land route is not easy. In fact, we can take the water route. Jinzhou has Zhanjiang River across it, and the big river is a net. We can go straight to Zhanjiang from the Jinghua Canal and transport various materials by waterway." Gu Changfeng said.

"I think the people in the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry are not so stupid as to know that I have opened up two canals." The emperor almost rolled his eyes, but out of good upbringing, he still had a serious expression.

"Beware of the plague, we must take protective measures. Don't be like 20 years ago, when the whole country wiped out the plague. It's unimaginable."

"Yes." Upon hearing the word plague, the three people below immediately looked serious.

The emperor stroked the wrinkles on his forehead with his hand, then waved his hand, and the three ministers retreated automatically.

"I don't know which capable general Mr. Li plans to send there?" Shen Yan, Minister of the Household Department, asked.

"You also know that Jinzhou and Hengzhou are the same thing. It's not easy for one to get in, and it's too difficult for the other to get in and out. It's okay to go to Jinzhou by water, but how did you get in Hengzhou from the mountains?" Li Tao frowned. Wrinkled ones can trap flies. "If you want to talk about this faction, you understand."

Shen Yan said: "..." I don't understand.

Gu Changfeng listened with a cold face, without saying a word, he got into his own sedan chair and went back to Gu's mansion after leaving the palace gate.

Three days later, a large amount of supplies departed from Shangjing, Suzhou, and Muzhou to Jinzhou.

"Master Gu, Master Liang." Feng Xian, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, came out of the cabin and shouted as he walked.

There were two people standing on the deck, both wearing official uniforms. They were Liang Yizhou, the servant of the household department, and Gu Changfeng's eldest son, Gu Xiangwan, who is now the head of the imperial hospital.

"My lord."

"Hey, what are you two adults doing? Why don't you come in for a drink or two?" Feng Xian pointed to the wine and food in the cabin with a smile.

"It's up to your lord to enjoy these delicacies! My lord Gu and I were fascinated by the beauty of the mountains and rivers, and we just wanted to see more. How can the entertainment of Yaxing disturb the food and drink?" Liang Yizhou said.

"Hey, Mr. Liang's words are wrong. Wouldn't it be better to have beautiful scenery with delicious food, mountains and rivers with beautiful people?" Feng Xian laughed, he spread his arms, and took a deep breath facing the green mountains on both sides of the strait.

"Master Gu, look at the mountains on the two banks. We have been traveling for the past few days, and the mountains are getting higher and higher. After walking through the fork in the morning, I found that the water is getting faster and faster. It should soon enter the boundary of Jinzhou." Gu Xiang Wan nodded.

Gu Xiangwan is the eldest son of the prime minister. He has been diligent and studious since he was a child, and has never been lazy.Originally, Gu Shenyan intended for him to take part in the scientific examination, but he didn't want to. In the end, he found a famous doctor, worshiped him as his teacher, and studied medicine for more than ten years.

In the end, with his outstanding medical skills, he became the head of the Tai Hospital.He has always taken it as his duty to save the sick and suffering of the people. Although it is from the Tai Hospital, he only sees the doctor for the emperor, and other than that, he sees the doctor for the common people.

These days, those who know medical skills are somewhat arrogant, and even the emperor can't do anything to him.Who made him have superb medical skills, the emperor needs it?

This time, Jinzhou and Hengzhou were flooded, and Gu Xiangwan had to follow whatever he said.

"I'll be able to help the victims soon, I'm busy." Gu Xiangwan glanced at Feng Xian, turned around and entered the cabin, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.He doesn't drink, he just eats.

Seeing this scene, Liang Yizhou no longer cared about the food and drink, and sat down to eat.Feng first saw that his goal had been achieved, but felt that it had not been achieved.

Let's say that Li Qing went to Beijing to get the medicine, and many children saw the first effect after taking it.But unfortunately, one or two old people and babies did not make it through.

In the past few days, the mood of the villagers has become more and more depressed, and the water level of the flood is gradually decreasing, but their hearts are also getting heavier and heavier.

I can see my own home soon, and I don't know what kind of home it has become.

Why the sudden flood?Why flood their home?After the flood, there was no food and no money. Could it be possible to starve to death?

Many people have only woven a piece of cloth at home, and the summer silkworms have already cocooned and spun silk. This flood has deeply destroyed their hope and destroyed their hope for a better life.

Is there something that offended God, and God will treat them like this?
