The King's Favor [Rebirth]

Chapter 29

Xie Linxi seems gentle, but he is actually quite a difficult person to get in touch with.

For example, Qi Hanzhang, in the eyes of others, he and Qi Hanzhang have a good relationship, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are friends.

But if it wasn't for Qi Hanzhang's sudden appearance today, Xie Linxi would not have particularly thought of him at all.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Xie Linxi doesn't take people seriously. If Qi Hanzhang really encounters any difficulties, Xie Linxi will come forward to help.It's just that recently, apart from Qi Jingyuan, he can't tell the slightest bit of attention from others.

The relationship between him and Qi Jingyuan suddenly had a major breakthrough, and he had only this person in his eyes and heart.

When Qi Hanzhang appeared, he remembered that there was such a person. Now that Qi Hanzhang was out of sight, Xie Linxi quickly forgot about him.

That night, Zhang Xian, who had not yet been convicted, committed suicide.

People who heard the news the next day were a little bit embarrassed. The blue sky in the hearts of the common people walked through the last journey of their lives in this way, and it really makes people feel very emotional to mention it.

Regarding Zhang Xian's death, not many people made arrangements for Qi Jingyuan and Xie Linxi this time.

Although some people will murmur, but after all, no one deliberately draws the disaster to them.

After all, anyone who encounters this kind of thing feels dirty.

People are forgetful, and life in the capital quickly became dull again, and Zhang Xian's death was quickly replaced by other new events.

Ji Mingyi and He Yun were making various guesses about Qi Jingyuan, but the court was much calmer.

But things like calm can only be temporary forever, and waves will rise soon.

Either man-made or natural disaster.

The first disturbance was the snowstorm in Wan'an City, which is the closest to the capital.

Heavy snow fell in Wan'an for several days and nights, and the homes of ordinary people were crushed and collapsed.

The people were displaced and ran towards the capital.

Some people are so hungry that they start fighting, stealing, robbing, and even exchange food.

The most important thing is that the snow disaster didn't just happen in Wan'an, the capital city was also slightly affected, not to mention other places.

When the news spread to the court, the little emperor turned pale when he heard it, and could not help looking at Qi Jingyuan.

Qi Jingyuan lowered his eyes and let the civil and military officials think of a way.

A disaster is the hardest thing to do.

To make matters worse, the household department has no money.

The last sum of money from the household department has just been transferred to the border.This is Qi Jingyuan's habit since he became the regent. Whenever the winter cold comes, the soldiers' salaries must be paid first.

No one in this world wants to go to war on an empty stomach, even if they can't survive, and they talk about protecting the country and the people.

If the frontier soldiers lived like this, and the officials in the capital did not act, then the only way left was to rebel.

But no one thought that there would be a snowstorm this year.

If the Shenglin Terrace had not been built in the first place, the Ministry of Households could still provide some money for emergency relief.But now the household department is in a hurry and has no choice.

So when Qi Jingyuan opened his mouth, Hubu was the first to cry.

He couldn't come up with money, so he naturally wanted to complain first.

Hubu shouted grievances, and the others lamented and asked each other what to do.

Ji Mingyi and He Yun also frowned, and some of them obviously started to lose their minds.

Some people think that Shenglin Tower should not be built, and some people think that money should not be allocated to the border so early.If those silver coins were kept, at least they could be used for emergency at this time.

People don't know or dare to talk about the previous things, but they can mention the latter.

So someone said: "If the prince hadn't insisted on going his own way, the household department would be able to come up with some money now."

Qi Jingyuan didn't even raise his eyelids at such words, but Xie Linxi was not happy, he said: "What does Master Yun mean by this? This is a natural disaster, could it be that the prince can predict it in advance? Take ten thousand steps back and say, Master Yun's It means that the bloodshed of the soldiers at the border gate is nothing. Whoever let them die standing in this court hall, they deserve to be hungry? If there is any accident at the border gate, you will be responsible? Master Yun is really ridiculous when he said this, At this time, I don’t want to think about how to overcome the difficulties in front of me, but I’m thinking about things that I shouldn’t be thinking about, I’m afraid I woke up too early today and my mind is still not clear.”

Xie Linxi satirized people, but no one could stand it.

That Lord Yun wanted to say something, but he really couldn't stand up. In the end, someone pulled his sleeves, and quietly huddled among the courtiers.

A test came out, and no one in the court talked about the frontier payment.

At this moment, Qi Jingyuan finally raised his eyelids and said, "There is no money in the household department, and the supply of silver in Yunnan will not be delivered until May next year. This is something that cannot be quenched near thirst. Now I am asking you to find a way, not to make you talk nonsense .”

When he's expressionless, he looks gloomy.

Everyone knew that he was in a bad mood, so they didn't dare to mess around.

It's just that you can't think of a way to have no money, and everyone is at a loss.

Ji Mingyi is also a little anxious, the snow in Wan'an is still falling, if this continues, more and more places will be affected, and the capital may be full of refugees by then.

Displacement will bring a series of problems.

Freezing to death and starving to death, stealing guns and killing people.

Things like maintaining law and order are still within the control of people, and the most fearful thing is that there will be other epidemics after the disaster.

This is very damaging to the little emperor's reputation.

Although Qi Jingyuan, the regent, stood in front of him, but the queen mother insisted on building the Shenglin Tower first, even if the common people scolded him this time, they couldn't blame Qi Jingyuan.

When Ji Mingyi frowned and tried to find a way, Qi Jingyuan said lightly: "The disaster came suddenly, it was beyond your control, and I can't think of any other way for the time being, so I am willing to donate my one-year salary to the disaster relief. It’s better to have a car, a cup of water, than nothing.”

As soon as he opened his mouth, the little emperor's eyes lit up slightly, as if he had found his backbone.He thought, as long as Qi Jingyuan opened his mouth, he would always find a way.

Xie Linxi hurriedly said: "My minister is willing to donate a year's salary with the prince."

Others also responded one after another, but they knew in their hearts that their one-year salary would only be able to open a few porridge sheds, which would not affect the overall situation much.

After the money was donated, everyone fell into silence again.

At this time, a spokesperson stood up and said: "I feel that the continuous heavy snowfall is an ominous sign. The emperor should issue an imperial edict to ask for forgiveness from the heavens."

As soon as the words "Zui Ji Zhao" came out, everyone's eyes were fixed on the little emperor.

The little emperor's face turned pale, he looked at Qi Jingyuan who was expressionless, then pursed his lips and said: "If I can make the heavy snow stop if I make a crime against myself, I would like to make this crime against myself."

Qi Jingyuan stood up abruptly after hearing this, and said coldly: "Qin Tianjian Jianzheng and others have an unshirkable responsibility for such natural disasters, since they can't even see this, why stay in Qin Tianjian. "

Xie Linxi frowned slightly when she heard this.

Everyone also knew that Qi Jingyuan was taking the opportunity to take revenge, and no one dared to say more at this moment.Who told Qin Tianjian to approve the construction of Shenglin Terrace at the beginning, which is auspicious, but now that there is a snowstorm, this auspicious thing has become unlucky.

It is inevitable for Qin Tianjian to change people inside and out this time.

The little emperor also knew that he was wronged, so he could only allow Qi Jingyuan to attack Qin Tianjian.

After retreating, the little emperor was the first to leave.

Qi Jingyuan took Xie Linxi back to Jinghua Palace.

No matter what other people think in their hearts, they all have sad faces, as if they are for the country and the people.

Ji Mingyi and He Yun were at the end.

Ji Mingyi said to He Yun: "He Guogong knows the prince well, is the prince's behavior different today from the past?"

He Yun didn't speak.

Ji Mingyi stroked his beard against the cold wind and sighed, "I used to be able to guess what the prince was thinking, but now I can't."

He Yun understood what Ji Mingyi meant.

In the past, when someone forced the little emperor to issue an imperial edict, Qi Jingyuan must be the first to disagree.

First of all, the little emperor is too young, and he is not in charge of the court affairs, and things like natural disasters are beyond the control of the little emperor.Even if he wanted to find a head, Qi Jingyuan would do it for the little emperor.

Not to mention attacking the officials of the Qin Tianjian in public, this is simply a direct slap in the face of the Qin Tianjian.

And what Qin Tianjian said at the beginning, said that the construction of Shenglin Tower is a great good.

Now this great kindness has become the most embarrassing existence.

Both Qin Tianjian and the Queen Mother were in the middle of embarrassment, as if they were being roasted by fire.

Seeing that He Yun didn't say anything, Ji Mingyi had no choice but to let go of the words: "I just don't know if the prince is angry because he lost face at the beginning, or if he has other thoughts in his heart."

He Yun finally raised his eyes when he heard this, and he said: "The Taifu also said just now, the prince's thoughts are hard to guess. But I think, no matter what the situation is, the prince is definitely determined to get through this difficult time. What does the Taifu think?" .”

Ji Mingyi looked at He Yun who spoke impeccably, then laughed twice, and said, "What He Guogong said is true."

After saying this, he left leisurely.

He Yun is the little emperor's uncle, he doesn't worry about some things, why worry about himself.

After He Yun waited for Ji Mingyi to leave, he looked back in the direction of Jinghua Palace.

He was thinking, did Qi Jingyuan do what he did today on purpose, or did he insist on teaching the little emperor a lesson because he was on the empress dowager's side?

Many people were thinking about what He Yun was thinking.

It's just like what He Yun said, no matter what, what's in front of you is the most important thing.

The next day when he went to court, everyone was still frowning, but the little emperor issued an edict of sin in public.

The sin edict is like that, first of all, he said some of his own faults, even if there is no fault, he still has to say all kinds of sincerity.After talking about the guilt, I prayed that the snowstorm would stop as soon as possible, so that the people could return to a stable life.

This thing seemed ridiculous to Xie Linxi. If the sun really cleared up the next day and the snow didn't fall, then some people would say that God heard the little emperor's confession and forgave him.

If the snow continued to fall, some people would say that the little emperor was not sincere enough to be forgiven, and he needed to continue.

As long as this edict of guilt is issued, no matter what the result is, it will not be good for the little emperor's reputation.

But the little emperor belongs to the latter situation. After his crime was issued, the capital snowed for three days in a row.

The officer wanted to force the little emperor to continue to sin against himself, but this time Qi Jingyuan dismissed it impatiently.

Qi Jingyuan said that if you really want to blame yourself, you can't just be the emperor alone. No one has done anything wrong. Either everyone will come together for this kind of thing, or don't force it too much.

The speaker didn't dare to confront him head-on, and fell silent.

As soon as this incident happened, the little emperor fell ill within a few days, coughing badly.

At first he could bear to sit in the court hall, but later he coughed badly, his face became smaller because of it, and he really couldn't go up to court, so the court hall was completely handed over to Qi Jingyuan.
