Chapter 390 (2/2)
Unexpectedly, Han Zhan was right.
Indeed, the drought is becoming more and more serious, and locusts have appeared in different places. It can be said that the disaster does not come alone. The people are unable to make a living and complain. At this time, Emperor Xiao suddenly ordered Han Zhan to deal with the drought and locusts.
”How can I manage the drought? Can't I go if it doesn't rain? But the problem is that if I have rain, it will rain, not to mention locusts.”
”It's easy to deal with locusts. Ducks will be raised in Jiangnan. It's easy to use ducks to deal with locusts at that time, but drought...” Chu Zhi sighed, ”I think your majesty asked you to deal with the drought. In fact, he wanted you to help him stare at the people in the magistrate's Yamen. Your majesty will certainly peel off a sum of disaster relief silver. It's just that officials at all levels go down one level after another. When the serious children get into the hands of the people, I'm afraid there's nothing left, it will be like this once.”
As Chu Zhi expected, the first imperial edict came down, and the second imperial edict followed. The imperial edict said that Han Zhan would escort the disaster relief silver directly to the disaster area. If anything went wrong, Han Zhan would ask.
This is a hot potato!
Chu Zhi worried and said, ”you just participated in King Rui. This will tell you to deal with the disaster. I'm afraid it's the idea of Gu Changyan. You can't take this job.”
”How do you do that?” Han Zhan laughed. ”Can't you resist?”
”Even if you take it, it's not such a way! Gu Changyan can push you into the water. Naturally, he can't ask him to watch on the wall. When you go back to your majesty, you say you're a dandy and don't understand anything. Isn't it delaying the business? If you miss a big event, you can't afford to pay for the whole marquis. Your majesty naturally refuses. Then you mention it again. Someone must go with you. You can help me Help each other. If there is no accident, your majesty will send Gu Changyan out. ”
Mutual checks and balances are the usual means of emperor Xiao, but if this method is used more, it will not work.
Now Han Zhan pleads guilty first and says he can't. at that time, no matter the result is good or bad, Han Zhan can't be blamed.
Han Zhan's eyes lit up: ”I didn't expect my mother to be smart and thoughtful.”
Then he went to the palace overnight. When he came back the next day, Han Zhan only said two words: ”it's OK.”
Chu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, that's good.
Han Zhan said, ”but your majesty said he would send haixiuyan. At present, haixiuyan is also in the south of the Yangtze River. Ask him to meet us there. He has been there for many days and has found out the situation there, which can save a lot of trouble.”
At this time, Han Zhan set out with the team on the third day.
The night before leaving, Han Zhan held Chu Zhi and bullied her. The next day, if Dong Er didn't drag her up, I'm afraid he would miss Han Zhan's practice.
Because Gu Changyan also went, the fourth Prince and Chu Xi also came.
Now the fourth Prince takes Chu Xi everywhere, so that the side imperial concubine of Chu Xi is more dignified than the main room of the fourth prince imperial concubine.
Chu Xi looked at Gu Changyan and couldn't give up. If the fourth Prince hadn't been present, she would have held Gu Changyan and wouldn't let him go. The fourth prince said that the task was arduous, and a little carelessness would cause riots. At that time, it would lead to civil unrest in the state of Liang and become a sinner in the state of Liang. How could Chu Xi be willing to call Gu Changyan for such a dangerous job!
It's a pity that there are four princes. Even if Chu Xi doesn't give up, she can only bear it.
Chu Zhi and Han Zhan are more dramatic.
At Gu Changyan, Princess Rui and Chu Xi are reluctant to part with each other. Han Zhan doesn't give up holding Chu Zhi. He wants to take Chu Zhi to the south of the Yangtze River. It's a pity that he can't.
Han Zhan was so angry that he hit the wall.
