Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

Chapter 926

After reading the memorials of these people one by one.

Li Chengqian threw all the memorials in his hand to the ground in an extremely irritated manner.

At this moment, if I had to use two words to describe him, it would be: powerless.

In the past, whenever the Tang Dynasty encountered difficulties, Li Shimin and a bunch of important officials in the court would solve them.

As a prince, he watched more from the perspective of a bystander.

So I don't have a deep understanding of the difficulties.

But this time, Li Shimin left Chang'an as he wished.

All the power of this Great Tang was handed over to him.

But he has not enjoyed the pleasure of power much, but he first ushered in the responsibility that power brings.

If he can't handle the flood this year well.

As a result, the common people were killed, and a large number of people died of starvation and disease.

Then his prestige and image as the prince will be greatly reduced.

It is also quite detrimental to his future ascension to the throne.

What made him even more worried and terrified was that.

Once his father returned to Chang'an, after seeing such a scene.

How harshly would you reprimand yourself?

He may even be disappointed with himself, and lean more toward King Wei, especially Li Qiu.

At this time, seeing the prince's powerless, depressed, and decadent expression.

Gao Shilian at the side sighed softly in his heart, paying close attention to Li Chengqian's expression.

Then he suggested slowly, "Your Highness."

"Flooding is so severe these days."

"Like the surplus food in Taicang, it is barely enough to supply the frontline troops."

"On top of that, there are so many affected state capitals right now."

"How big is the territory affected by the disaster, and how wide is the scope?"

"Just relying on the donations of those gentry and gentry is not enough."

"Even if we confiscate all the rice in these noble gentry and business houses."

"It's useless to be afraid."

Hearing Gao Shilian's words, Li Chengqian frowned even more.

As for Gao Shilian, he continued: "Now, if we really want to resolve this flood."

"I'm afraid there is only one way left to go."

"That is to go to Furong Garden and ask Youzhou Thirteen Prefectures, Yanyun, and Western Liaoning to help."

As usual, if someone dared to say in front of Li Chengqian that he would ask Furongyuan and the King of Peking for help.

Then Li Chengqian was so angry that he jumped up and cursed.

But today, unexpectedly, Li Chengqian was expressionless and chose to remain silent.

After seeing such a reaction from him, Gao Shilian felt a little relieved.

Then he continued tentatively, "I also know."

"Your Highness, you are rude and rude to the king of Peiping, and you are very rude if you don't follow the rules."

"But now the King of Peking is not in Chang'an City."

"It just so happens that I used to have some contacts with the warrior Xun Sulai."

"For the sake of the people in this world, I am willing to go and reminisce about the past."

"Also let Furongyuan make a move, so as to take part of the responsibility for this world."

"I don't know what your Highness thinks?"

Listening to Gao Shilian's words, Li Chengqian remained expressionless.

Neither agree nor disagree.

It seemed as if he had never heard Gao Shilian's speech at all.

At this time, Gao Shilian also understood in his heart, hurriedly bowed and retreated.

At such an imminent moment, Gao Shilian did not dare to delay, so he left the East Palace and headed straight for the Furong Garden.

As soon as he entered the Furong Garden, the person who came out to greet him turned out to be Ma Zhou.

Seeing it was him, Gao Shilian couldn't help feeling a little disappointed and displeased.

There was no polite words, and he asked directly with a cold face: "Ma Zhou, you are not an official in the imperial city."

"Why are you running around in this Furong Garden?"

Regarding his fierceness, Ma Zhou had a good temper.

Immediately bowed and said: "Lord Gao doesn't know something."

"Before Ma Zhou was reused by His Majesty, he was originally the chief steward of this Furong Garden."

"Originally, this is my home and work place."

"Now, I have been transferred to the Hongwen Museum by the Ministry of Officials, and I have nothing to do all day long."

"Wandering there."

"So simply, I resigned from office and continued to return to this lotus garden."

"Here, first, there is something to do."

"Secondly, the salary is much higher than that of the court."

"The more important thing is that you can feel comfortable doing things here."

"For me, it is also a good choice."

Listening to his words, Gao Shilian snorted coldly in his heart.

In people's homes, water flows to low places, and people go to high places.

But this Ma Zhou is good, he acts against the law, and he is proud of the retainers of Furong Garden everywhere.

It is a shame to the literati all over the world.

But right now, he naturally didn't have time to talk to him, and had unnecessary quarrels with Ma Zhou.

Instead, he calmed down his emotions and asked impatiently, "Ma Zhou, if you have any difficulties, you can tell me."

"Why did you submit your resignation in such a hurry?"

"I also know something about you."

"What a shame!"

"By the way, I'm here because I have something to see your wife."

"I don't know if I can inform you?"

Hearing this, Ma Zhou nodded repeatedly.

Then he left the living room and turned back to the Zhongzhai.

Then I found a quiet place to drink two cups of tea and read a book for a while.

Then he returned to Gao Shilian with an apologetic face.

"Master Gao, I'm really sorry."

"My princess just gave birth to a baby boy, so it's inconvenient to see guests."

"As for Princess Wu, she is shy."

"No matter what happens at home, let alone strangers."

"If there is anything, you can tell me."

"Wait for me to go back and hand it over to the two princesses."

Hearing Ma Zhou's words, Gao Shilian couldn't help showing a layer of anger on his face.

He knew about Luo Kexin's just giving birth.

It is human nature to be inconvenient to meet guests.

But Wu Jue, the daughter of the warrior Xun, followed his father to various social occasions since she was a child.

Smart and clever, and extremely capable.

I heard that in the past, the government affairs of the samurai Yi Gongbu Shangshu, as well as many government affairs of the King of Peiping today, were all managed by Wu Sui.

The huge business system of the entire Furong Garden was also created by Wu Sui.

To say that she is ashamed to see people and doesn't care about family affairs is simply nonsense.

It was obvious that Furong Garden had emotions and dissatisfaction with herself, the East Palace, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Chapter 927 What Can You Do With Your Eastern Palace?

In other words, there must be something hateful about this poor man.

You are a merchant in the Beiping Wang District, thanks to the grace of His Majesty and the Royal Family, you are today.

Now that your wings are hardened, you dare not even look down on His Highness the Crown Prince.

It seems that the punishment His Highness the Crown Prince gave to you before was still light.

If there is a day in the future when your family will be destroyed, it will be your own fault!

Thinking of this, Gao Shilian flicked his sleeves angrily, turned around and left.

Looking at his back, Ma Zhou also gradually put away the smile on his face.

Turning around and returning to Zhongzhai, he returned to Wu Sui respectfully.

After hearing what Ma Zhou said, Wu Jue's complexion did not change at all.

He didn't take Gao Shilian's leaving in anger at all.

In the core layer system of the entire Furong Garden.

Luo Kexin is the one who cares most about the overall situation, and only wants to maintain and improve the relationship with the royal family and the East Palace.

Just like the previous Luo family, maintaining one's deterrent power while making as few enemies as possible is the foundation for a family to continue.

As for Wu Jue, he was the most resolute among them, saying that since the East Palace wants to tear themselves apart from us.

Suppress us everywhere, and even killed my husband.

Then for this kind of person and power, even if he is the prince of the Eastern Palace, he must never be polite or soft-hearted.

A tooth for a tooth, blood for blood.

As long as he doesn't inherit the rule for a day, Furongyuan at least has a chance of victory.

Sitting still and deceiving oneself and others is definitely not Wu Jue's favorite style.

This kind of temperament comes from the bottom of his heart and appears automatically under the trigger of a crisis.

So, ever since I found out that Donggong secretly colluded with Tubo to harm Li Qiu.

Wu Jue also started his own series of actions and arrangements.

She first cleaned up all the people in the Furong Garden and the palace.

Regardless of guards, craftsmen, servants, anyone involved, as long as there is the slightest suspicion.
