Chapter 366 The mistress of the Hou Mansion vs. the young prince 109
At the end of May, there will be a great meeting.
The new censor Kong Liang took out a letter written in blood, knelt down and began to read, "This is coming from Tongzhou in an eight hundred-mile hurry. Tongzhou has been suffering from drought for a long time, and the people have no harvest and are living in dire straits. The local government is deceiving the superiors and deceiving the victims, and is driving away the victims. Now, refugees all over Tongzhou have come to the capital."
Pei Cifu was unhappy when he saw Kong Liang. His original intention was to throw Kong Liang to a remote village to become a petty official. No matter whether he was good or not, the evaluation was inferior. Kong Liang could not be promoted, let alone return to the capital.
For some reason, Kong Liang was attracted by the Yushitai. The old guys in the Yushitai were very difficult to deal with, so the emperor actually agreed, and the confused Kong Liang entered the Yushitai.
This kid really has evil intentions, and he started causing trouble for him as soon as he took office!
Pei Cifu glared at Kong Liang and said loudly: "With a blood letter of unknown origin, you dare to smear Tongzhou officials and erase Tongzhou's achievements in disaster control. You are so brave!"
"Tongzhou has been suffering from a severe drought for a long time. Officials throughout the territory have tightened their belts and provided porridge and disaster relief to calm the people and stabilize the situation. Now Tongzhou is peaceful and the people are happy. They are all praising His Majesty's benevolence. All the people's letters have been sent to His Majesty's desk. If you keep talking nonsense, watch your head!"
The emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, feeling quite proud as he listened to the heated commotion below.
Ji Tongfu resigned, and Pei Cifu became arrogant in the court, so he let Kong Liang enter the imperial censorship. Kong Liang had no family support behind him, so he could only be a pure minister. It was really a useful sword.
The emperor squinted his eyes and saw that Pei Cifu had great power in the court. He attacked Kong Liang all at once, but Kong Liang was weak and weak. It was exactly when he needed his kindness and promotion.
When the emperor opened his mouth, everything fell silent.
"What Pei Cifu said is reasonable. The disaster in Tongzhou has subsided. If Kong Aiqing mentions it again at this time, is there any evidence?"
Kong Liang said loudly: "The granaries in Tongzhou have been emptied by moths a long time ago. The so-called disaster relief is just empty words written on paper. There is no food to provide in the local area. They blame each other and even kill the people to establish their authority! The victims cannot survive. They can only Able to escape."
"I have here a memorial from the prefectures along the way. The governments along the way are unable to take over the victims and can only expel them. I don't know why the memorial cannot reach His Majesty. I submit it today for your Majesty's detailed investigation."
The emperor took a few glances at the memorial. He didn't care where the refugees went. The people were like weeds in the field. They grew up again and again with the spring breeze. If one group died of hunger, another group would always grow.
However, if the refugees really came to the capital and surrounded the city gate, it would be too unsightly and would also affect the dignity of the emperor.
The emperor put down the memorial and already had an idea in his mind, "Although it is a serious crime for the people to leave their place of origin without authorization, I cannot bear to see the people starve to death. Since the people have arrived near the capital, let the nearby towns provide food and disaster relief. Be sure to settle down." Good people must not make mistakes.”
Pei Cifu immediately knelt down and flattered the emperor.
"Your Majesty's kindness is a blessing to all the people. The disaster in Tongzhou is serious. The local officials have tried their best and your Majesty has exempted 30% of the tax. However, there are always some unruly people who like to cause trouble and run around everywhere, which is why this disaster happened."
"These unscrupulous people are not local people. If they want to provide disaster relief, they must allocate money from the Ministry of Household Affairs. Zhao Shangshu always said that the national treasury is empty. I wonder if there is money and food?"
Pei Cifu's eyes fell on Zhao Shangshu. Zhao Shangshu was always digging and searching, and even refused to provide money for the emperor's tomb repair, and insisted on arguing that the emperor would open a private treasury.
If Zhao Shangshu continues to push the blame today, if the unruly people cause any trouble in the future, it will be Zhao Shangshu's fault.
Zhao Shangshu frowned tightly. He had already seen the memorial in Kong Liang's hand, and had also seen the victims who had escaped from Tongzhou. If it hadn't been for the help of the Third Highness, these memorials would never have been sent to the capital, let alone In the hands of the emperor.
The situation was more serious than imagined. Only a very small number of victims fled all the way to the capital. The situation in Tongzhou was even more tragic. His Majesty exempted 30% of the tax, but local officials did not reduce the tax.
The extra 30% went into someone's pocket.
Zhao Shangshu stood up, held up his official scepter and said: "Disaster relief is a major matter, and I will do my best to share your Majesty's worries."
As soon as these words came out, all factions were ready to make a move. It was rare for Zhao Shangshu to be generous. This was a piece of fat.
If it was done well, the disaster relief would be a great achievement. There was a quarrel in the court over who should go to the disaster relief.
The emperor couldn't decide for the moment and was preparing to withdraw from the court and discuss it again tomorrow.
Suddenly, there was a stabbing pain in his heart, like a burning fire burning his heart. The pain made him dizzy for a while, and he fainted before he could scream.
The emperor had a convulsion and the court became a mess. The ministers refused to leave and all stayed in the palace to wait for news from the emperor.
It wasn't until late at night that the emperor woke up, but he still couldn't get up.
The imperial doctor couldn't explain the reason. He only said that the emperor became ill from overwork and needed to rest.
The news spread throughout the capital as if it had wings. There was no morning court meeting the next day, but the emperor received dozens of memorials requesting the establishment of a prince.
The most common memorial was of course the request to establish the third prince as crown prince. The third emperor was a direct descendant and the orthodox crown prince.
The second is to ask for the establishment of a second prince. The reason is that the second prince is the eldest son, and he is quite similar to your majesty and shares his heart and mind with your majesty.
In addition, there are actually some who support the fifth prince, the sixth prince, and the eighth prince. The sporadic ones look particularly annoying!
The emperor threw down the memorial in his hand and yelled angrily, "I'm not dead yet! They forced me to establish a heir apparent! The whole dynasty is full of traitors and traitors!"
In anger, the emperor's heart beat faster, his breathing became rapid, his face turned red from holding back, and his heart began to sting again. The emperor fell on the bed, as if he was going to faint at any time.
The chief eunuch was so frightened that he immediately went to serve him. The emperor kicked the eunuch in the heart and said angrily:
"You also hope that I will die soon, right? Who asked you to bring these things in? Get out!"
The chief eunuch had served the emperor for many years and knew what the emperor's temper was like. He did not dare to cry out in pain even after receiving this kick. He knelt on the ground and did not dare to approach the emperor again.
Only a fool would step forward to use him as a punching bag for the emperor.
The palace maid and eunuch knelt on the ground, and in the silence, the young nobleman walked in with a smile, waving a handkerchief, and his tone was coquettish and innocent.
"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor told you to rest, why are you still so angry?"
She lightly kicked the head eunuch and scolded: "You are worthless and will make His Majesty angry. If His Majesty doesn't like it, just take it out and burn it and that's it. Why bother to make His Majesty unhappy?"
The chief eunuch was shocked. He felt that Tong Guiren really had the potential to bring disaster to the country.
"Noble... Your Majesty is joking. This is a memorial handed in by the ministers. It cannot be burned."
Tong Guiren snorted coldly and sat beside His Majesty's bed. He placed his soft, boneless hand on His Majesty's heart and stroked it gently.
"What kind of bullshit memorial is it? Is it more important than His Majesty? According to my concubine, it will be pure only if it is burned."
Emperor Longxin was delighted, and he put his arms around Tong Guiren and said with a smile: "You, you, are so naughty. I will follow your lead and move them all out and burn them!"
