The villain female supporting role will never admit defeat

With so many courtiers, they will not be all useless. After discussing in a low voice, the regulations were quickly discussed.

There is a lot of water in Yangzhou. First of all, we must pay attention to the water level of rivers and lakes, record it at any time, and arrange the relocation of people near the rivers and lakes as soon as possible to avoid disaster.

Secondly, repair and strengthen embankments, block water and waterproof, and try to prevent water from spreading around.

Then, dredge the river and estuary, remove obstacles in rivers and lakes such as stones and dead trees, and improve the flow capacity of water.

Another Master Shaoqing pointed out that after a catastrophe, there must be a catastrophe, and we should pay attention to the physical condition of the people. If the plague spreads, it will make things worse.

Chu Yaoguang nodded while listening.

All very viable ideas.

Sure enough, after brainstorming, she didn't think of the plague at all.

"Yaoguang," Chu Yi called out his name suddenly, "Do you have any ideas?"

Chu Yaoguang came out and replied calmly: "I remember that there are many mountains and rivers in Zhen'an area, and now there is plenty of rain. If the landslides and mud and rocks roll down, I am afraid that it will be harmful to the people living on the mountains and down the mountains."

Chu Yi nodded: "Is there any more?"

Chu Yaoguang continued: "After the waterlogging, the common people's minds will be fluctuated because of the disaster. The people below should be comforted and open warehouses for disaster relief, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

Chu Yi's face remained unchanged: "Is there any more?"

Chu Yaoguang frowned and thought for a while, and said, "To strengthen the embankment and dredge the river, a lot of property must be allocated, and the behavior of local officials in Zhen'an and Jiujiang must be strictly monitored. Corruption cannot occur at such a juncture."

Chu Yi persisted: "Is there any more?"

Chu Yaoguang thought about it carefully, and replied calmly: "Not anymore."

The courtiers below were all sweating for her.

Chu Yi, who had always had a gloomy face, showed a little smile: "That's right, it's well-founded, it seems that he has thought about it seriously."

Chu Yaoguang bowed his head: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your compliment."

She has been thinking about this flood, how could she not seriously think about the solution.

Chu Yi discussed the feasibility of each plan with the officials in the court, picked out a few safe ones, and quickly sent them to Yangzhou.

The court meeting this time was very long, and when Chu Yi announced the disbandment of the court, Chu Yaoguang's stomach was already growling with hunger.

She exited Zhaoyang Palace, and was going to go back to the palace to have something to eat before going to the household department.

When he raised his eyes, he happened to see Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry trotting to keep up with Chu Yi's footsteps, heading towards the Qingyan Hall.

Looks like they have to have a little meeting.

It's not easy.

Chu Yaoguang quickened his pace and returned to the palace.

The rain in Yangzhou did not stop as everyone expected, but continued to fall with an undeniable posture.

A certain river and lake overflowed, how many families were flooded in a certain place, a certain dam was washed away... Bad news from Yangzhou kept coming back, and Chu Yi's expression became more and more gloomy in the court.

At this time, if any official made some stupid mistakes, or reported some insignificant matters, he would inevitably be scolded by Chu Yi.

Chu Yaoguang has also been busy recently. The Department of Household Affairs has been repeatedly checking accounts and auditing expenditures because of disaster relief. After all, they have to give money to the people in the Ministry of Industry.

Chu Yaoguang was inclined to spend more, but the message given by the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs was that he must not be negligent, and every point must be calculated clearly, and he could not give more than a copper coin to the Ministry of Industry.

Naturally, the Ministry of Industry was unwilling to do so, and sent people to the Ministry of Accounting every day to cry for poverty, implying that if the Ministry of Accounting gave too much, they might not be able to perfectly handle the errands assigned by His Majesty.

Chu Yaoguang was caught in the middle, sighing with emotion as he was busy, his tired feet never touched the ground every day.

After finally finishing his work and going back to the bedroom of Changle Palace, Chu Yaoguang fell asleep and was about to fall asleep, but heard Qian Xunfang worryingly said: "Your Highness also needs to make more trips to Qingyan Palace."

Still running for a while, do you think you have too few things?Or do you think Chu Yi is in a good mood?

Chu Yaoguang lazily raised his eyelids: "What's wrong?"

Qian Xunfang said conveniently: "Recently, the master of Cangxiu Palace has been paying attention to Qingyan Palace. When His Majesty was worried, that person stepped in and acted filially. biased."

The implication is to ask Chu Yaoguang to move around more, to be filial to His Majesty, and not to let Chu Mingyu take all the benefits.

Omg.

If you don't have enough hard work, you still have to flatter yourself. Who wants to be exhausted?

Chu Yaoguang's eyelids drooped: "I won't go, I'm too tired."

Qian Xunfang continued earnestly: "Your Highness, no matter how hard you work in the household department, His Majesty will never see you. This is not as worthwhile as going to Qingyan Palace..."

How did the shrewd and capable Aunt Qian become so talkative!

Although it was for her own good, she really didn't want to compete with Chu Yi for favor.

Chu Yaoguang simply closed his eyes: "I can't hear you."

Qian Xunfang sighed and didn't try to persuade her any further.

The rain in Yangzhou continued for another eight days before it stopped slowly.

When it was raining and sunny, Chu Yi announced in the court hall that he would hold a ceremony to sacrifice to heaven at the Temple of Heaven, and confessed his faults to the heavens, begging to stop punishing the common people, praying to the gods to bless the people and calm down the floods.

The plot in the original book was played out before her eyes.

Chu Yaoguang didn't think that the waterlogging was Chu Yi's fault, but everyone else in the court agreed with Chu Yi's admission.

In this era, any natural disasters are considered to be due to the emperor's inconsiderate actions, causing the dissatisfaction of the heavens, and then harming the common people. They must stand up and accept the sins.

The Minister of Rites and Zhengqing of Weiwei Temple stood up and said that they must be ready for the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven.

It stands to reason that among the women of the royal family, only the Tainu and Tainu Jun can participate in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven.

However, the Yuan Kingdom had not yet set up an empress dowager, so Chu Yi allowed Chu Yaoguang and the three of them to stand behind her and participate in the sacrifice to heaven.

On the day of offering sacrifices to heaven, Chu Yaoguang put on complicated sacrificial attire and followed the palace men to look at the Temple of Heaven.

Although Qian Xunfang had already explained the process of offering sacrifices to the sky to Chu Yaoguang in detail, this was the first time that Chu Yaoguang had participated in such activities, and he was still worried that something might happen to him.

It would be bad luck if the courtiers caught him wrong and accused him of disrespecting the gods.

The ritual of offering sacrifices to heaven is quite long.

First drums and music are played, and then the emperor and the Minister of Rites look at the Temple of Heaven to offer sacrifices.

Chu Yaoguang looked at Chu Yi, who was wearing a big fur crown, going up to the altar. Her solemn clothes were embroidered with twelve different patterns, her expression was serious, and she had a majestic and inaccessible demeanor, which made people feel awe and strange.

For the first time, she realized so clearly that Chu Yi and her own mother, Chu Yijia, were completely two types of people.

After offering incense and sacrificing wine, it was time to recite the astronomy, and the surrounding was very quiet, only Chu Yi's pious and gentle voice sounded from the altar, and Chu Yaoguang sighed slightly.

After finally finishing the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, Chu Yaoguang went back to the palace to change his clothes.

Suddenly a news came out from Qingyan Hall that Chu Yi wanted to find someone to go to Yangzhou for disaster relief.

Chu Yaoguang's mind moved slightly.

Before she could take any action, later on, she was informed by the palace servants that Chu Mingyu had gone to Qingyan Hall.

Chu Yaoguang raised his eyebrows.

At this juncture, could it be that Chu Mingyu wanted to take the initiative to ask Ying to go to Yangzhou for disaster relief?
