The emperor looked at the ministers arguing over some trivial matters with a cold expression on his face, as he liked to talk about trivial matters that did not require him to make the decision himself.

He coughed, and the noise below stopped, and he said with a serious face: "Yesterday, Yunzhou Magistrate Miao Yunwu announced that Yunzhou encountered a snow disaster that has been rare in decades.

The snow is so heavy that it has collapsed many people's houses and killed many people. Yunzhou has already started giving out porridge.

However, due to heavy snow blocking the mountains, the journey was delayed for more than ten days. It was supposed to take three to five days, but it took half a month.

There is also heavy snowfall in Jiangzhou, but no news has been received from Jiangzhou so far.

The memorial was brought by a deputy general from Yunzhou. Three people and five horses died on the road. It took half a month to reach the capital. Dear friends, please share your thoughts! "

After the emperor's words fell, there was a sudden silence. The emperor sneered and looked at the ministers below, "What? Wasn't there a lot of fun just now? Why are you not talking now?"

The emperor looked at his ministers and finally said: "Second brother, tell me what you think!"

The second prince Chu Han did not expect that he would be the first to be named. He stood up and said: "Father, Yunzhou and Jiangzhou have similar terrains. The snow disaster in Yunzhou is so serious, but there is no news from Jiangzhou.

This may also be the reason why the Yunzhou prefect’s inaction led to the serious snow disaster in Yunzhou.

However, the top priority is not to hold accountable the prefect of Yunzhou for his mismanagement and negligence, but to send people to provide disaster relief. "

The third prince Chu Yu came out and said: "My son also believes that the top priority is to stabilize the disaster situation in Yunzhou first. They are all my subjects of Canglan Kingdom, and the court cannot ignore them.

Miao Yunwu, the prefect of Yunzhou, has indeed done a lot of good things for the people of Yunzhou over the years he has been in Yunzhou. His ministers are not in a hurry to make a conclusion whether the governance is improper.

We will make a conclusion after sending people to Yunzhou for disaster relief, and we will make plans if the prefect does not take action by then. "

The emperor had no comment on the two princes' statements. He looked up at the eldest prince, who was dressed as a military commander, and asked: "Boss, tell me your opinion!"

The eldest prince came out and said, "Father, I don't know much about the situation in Yunzhou, but judging from my experience in the northern border these years.

Since the snow disaster in Yunzhou was rare in decades, it was quite serious at the time.

During this period of time, even heavy snow in the capital has been falling intermittently. Many people will plow the snow every three or two days to prevent the snow from accumulating too thick and crushing their houses.

In such weather, if the house is destroyed, it is really possible for someone to freeze to death.

Since many houses have collapsed in Yunzhou, it is very serious, so the son also agrees with the suggestions of the two emperor brothers. The most important thing at the moment is to send people to Yunzhou for disaster relief. "

When the emperor saw the three princes, they all had the same view. He fooled many ministers, and many people thought that disaster relief should be provided first.

The emperor actually agreed with the disaster relief. No matter what the prefect of Yunzhou did, the people of Yunzhou could not let it go.

"In that case, we will send people to Yunzhou for disaster relief. Su Aiqing, your Ministry of Finance must prepare the materials and silver needed for disaster relief as soon as possible."

Su Qingyun: "I accept the decree!"

At this moment, the Minister of War came out and said, "Your Majesty, since you are going to Yunzhou to provide disaster relief, who should be sent there?"

Emperor: "My dear friends, please tell me who is the right person to send to Yunzhou?"

Taifu Qin Hengyou said: "Your Majesty, I think that since we are going to Yunzhou to provide disaster relief, first of all, the current situation is that the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, and it took half a month for the few people who came from Yunzhou to travel by car.

Will the situation in Yunzhou become more serious in the past half month? It takes half a month to transport a light vehicle or a simple servant, and it will be even slower to bring disaster relief food.

Under such circumstances, the person escorting the grain and fodder must have experience in this area. Otherwise, if something goes wrong on the road, the gain will outweigh the loss. "

The Minister of War also spoke, "Your Majesty, Mr. Qin is right. In a situation like this where the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, if you are not careful, things can easily happen.

The road is covered with thick snow. If you are inexperienced, it will be difficult to reach Yunzhou safely. "

After listening to the words of the two people, many people looked at the eldest prince with vague eyes. Talking about experience in this field, the only one who had just returned was the eldest prince and the people he brought back!

These people fight in the north all year round, where there is constant snowfall as long as winter comes.

The eldest prince didn't say anything after hearing what these two people said. He just looked at you and listened to the arguments behind him with concern.

Some people suggested that a prince could go to such a situation, which would show the importance the royal family attaches to the people.

This proposal was like a bomb that exploded in the palace. Everyone in the camp of the second prince and the third prince felt that this was a good opportunity.

Suddenly, people on both sides began to argue. The eldest prince looked at the arguing ministers on both sides and felt for the first time that he was alone and helpless in the court.

I have been away from the capital all year round, but I really have no advantage at all in this capital!

He raised his eyes and looked at the king of a country on the throne, and saw that he was watching the debate underground with a cold eye. He even took the ginseng tea handed to him by his father-in-law, so that he could take his time to look at the noisy ministers below.

The eldest prince looked away and sighed again, mentally calculating the chances of becoming a fisherman.

The emperor looked at the officials fighting on both sides, and then at the three sons standing in front.

The second child had a calm face, but a look of expectation flashed through his eyes. The third child also looked calm, but compared to the second child, he seemed to be more confident.

The eldest brother stood tall and straight, but there was a look of disappointment on his face. That's right, the second and third eldest children all had their own people working hard for them.

But no one spoke for him, and he seemed a little helpless.

But so what? As a member of the royal family, it is destined that we cannot be like brothers and sisters like ordinary people.

But speaking of experienced people, the boss has lived in the north for so many years and is the commander-in-chief of an army, so it seems quite suitable.

On the second day after he returned to Beijing, he handed over the military power when he went to court. He was still aware of current affairs. There was no room for mistakes in this disaster relief. He seemed to be a good candidate.

Although the emperor had an idea, he did not express it immediately. Instead, after going to court, he called several princes and several ministers who often went to the imperial study room to discuss matters. They went to the imperial study room to discuss suitable candidates for disaster relief.

In the evening of that day, news of the serious snow disaster in Yunzhou spread. Su Lanxin had already received the news from Xiao Hengzhi, and she was a little worried at this time.
