The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

Look at this awareness.

Who will be hung on the street lamp in the future, it will not be Li Fu.

The knife that cuts off the head, no matter who falls on the neck, will not fall on Li Fu.

The main point is "follow the heart".

Although it is a loss-making business, it is somewhat reluctant.

However, Li Shimin, an emperor, is so shameless that he asked a prince to pay for it out of his own pocket. Is it a loss?

That can't be right?

When Li Fu said it at the beginning, it was to prepare for the subsequent locust plague.

He never thought that it would be used for floods.

In order to fill the four large granaries, Li Fu spent a lot of money.

The money at home was not even warm, so it was immediately spent again.

But the results of doing so are also gratifying, and the grain harvest is very smooth.

The aristocratic families, including grain merchants, will get cheaper and cheaper if they don't sell the old grain for three or four years. If they are not careful, it will rot in their hands.

Moreover, safekeeping is also an expense, so it is better to sell it to the "sucker" King Jingyang.

"Finally, I have thought about it for a long time, and I don't know who to send from the court, so I came to you to discuss it before the morning court." Li Shimin said: "I am not at ease to send other people."

But he is confident in Li Fu.

Therefore, Li Fu is the main person, Yan Lide and Jiang Que are the assistants, and they go to Linying.

Even if Li Fu is not good at it, with these two people by his side, things can be done.

Li Fu's role is only two, one is to bring food over to ensure that the food can be distributed to the victims.

The other is to supervise the local areas.

This is very important.

It has been more than half a year since he became the prince and changed the reign title.

Li Shimin has a lot of things he wants to do in his heart. The reason why he is slowly implementing it step by step is that the current Tang Dynasty is not stable in various places, and even he, the emperor, cannot fully control the local areas.

The local areas are not fully familiar with the Zhenguan court.

Including the fact that he was still wary of the power of the emperor, and he had not yet completed the complete control of the court.

However, he could not tell anyone these words, and could only bury them in his heart.

And these things could not be completed or properly done in a hurry.

Things will be rounded up slowly, take it slowly, and seek stability for the time being.

It's not that there are no suitable candidates in the court, but for the time being, Li Shimin does not want to use them, not to mention that they may not be better than Li Fu.

Li Shimin boasted that he was still very capable in judging people.

After the three people discussed almost everything, the morning court meeting was about to begin.

Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling withdrew from the side hall.

"The morning court begins, and all ministers enter the hall~~"

Wang De's sharp and high-pitched voice came from outside the hall.

The ministers waiting outside the hall filed into the hall.

After Li Shimin made a decision about the matter of Linying County, he had a clear mind in the morning court, and he spoke directly to many ministers in the court about the urgent report this morning.

Moreover, he also directly announced that Li Fu, the King of Jingyang, would take Yan Lide and Jiang Que to provide disaster relief.

Even if someone stood up to raise doubts, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, who knew about it in advance, would refute it without Li Shimin speaking.

The messenger came in a hurry, and Li Fu left in a hurry.

The messenger also said that it was about disaster relief, a major matter that could not be delayed, and Li Fu was asked to set off immediately.

How could Li Fu dare to delay?

He rode his horse and rushed to Chang'an with his guards.

Linying County is also named because it is adjacent to the Yingshui River. From ancient times to the present, humans have lived by the water. Now that there is a lot of rain, Guanzhong is flooded, and the river can't bear it. In addition, the river embankment was not reinforced and raised in time, so this consequence was caused.

After entering the palace, Li Shimin was still discussing state affairs with several ministers and officials. After the eunuch reported, he invited Li Fu to enter the palace.

"Your Majesty, your younger brother has seen you."

"You know everything, right?" Li Shimin looked at Li Fu seriously: "Now, it's really time to use you. Don't be lazy. The people's affairs are important."

"Yes." Li Fu bowed his hands and responded. He was less careless than before, and his expression became serious.

This is a disaster. Once the river bursts its embankment, the people lose their homes and become displaced. I dare not imagine how many people died because of this.

This is a human tragedy, how can Li Fu refuse.

"The granary on your farm." Li Shimin mentioned this matter.

"I understand. I will take as much as I can when I go to Linying. Even if I take one more stone, I can help one more citizen." Li Fu said, "I don't feel bad."

Of course I don't feel bad now. Li Fu is now back to work, and his mind is full of poor disaster victims.

In the past, Li Fu didn't live a good life. He had a kind heart, but he didn't have the ability.

Now, as a prince, he has some ability.

He also has a deeper understanding that if you are poor, you should take care of yourself, and if you are rich, you should help the world.

His salary as a prince and the salary of the prince's tutor are all from the taxes of the people of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin looked at Li Fu with a look of relief.

It doesn't matter if he is not in tune at ordinary times, even if he likes to study some messy things, likes to make money in private by doing industries, loves money, and is stingy.

It's not a big problem.

But in the face of major events, he is not vague.

He is worthy of being the son of their Li family!

"If that's the case, you need to set off as soon as possible, starting from your farm in Jingyang County, and take people with you. Yan Lide is still with you. When you leave Chang'an, take another person from the craftsman supervisor, Jiang Que. When you arrive in Linying, the two of them will help you." Li Shimin warned, "The journey is long and the task is difficult. Be careful."

Li Fu clasped his hands.

"I promise to complete the task!"

There was a bit of passion in it.

It rained heavily a few days ago, and Li Fu was busy with so many things in the farm. He was thinking in his heart that the farm reacted so quickly, and some farmers suffered disasters. What if it was other places?

What if no one organized them to do these things, and there were not so many craftsmen working in the farm?

As a result, when the foreign craftsmen in Li Fu's farm returned home, their homes were all in disaster, with houses damaged and farmland flooded.

For a while, they had to take care of their family affairs and would not return to the farm to work. They didn't even have a house to live in.

Even the area around Chang'an was like this, would other places be even worse?

But Li Fu didn't expect that the news would become like this when it reached Chang'an City.

The whole Guanzhong was hit by the disaster, and the serious places were flooded. Not to mention the grain fields, even the people were not saved.

Linying County was even worse. Heavy rains and river flooding flooded the entire county.

Although there were only a few words in the report.

But.

The fewer words.

The bigger the matter.

Li Fu now dared not imagine what Linying County would be like.

A city.......
