Reborn to marry, she no longer wants to be the young master's mother
Chapter 239 Rescue Operation
Hearing this, Xie Chaochao's eyes flashed with determination: "Your Majesty, although I am a woman, I am willing to share your worries. Perhaps, we can mobilize the wealthy merchants and nobles in the capital to donate supplies, and at the same time organize a rescue team composed of elite soldiers and generals, and travel day and night to ensure that the relief supplies are delivered to the disaster area in the shortest possible time."
After hearing this, Chu Heng's eyes flashed with admiration and emotion. He held Xie Chaochao's hand tightly, as if at this moment, all the difficulties and pressures had found an outlet for release: "Chaochao, with you by my side, I have nothing to fear. Your suggestion is very good. Let's prepare immediately. I will personally supervise the battle to ensure that every affected citizen can get timely assistance."
Thus, a rescue operation concerning life and death quietly began under the proposal of Queen Xie Chaochao and the decisive decision of Emperor Chu Heng.
Emperor Chu Heng sat on the magnificent dragon throne, frowning, staring through the carved window lattice at the heavy snow outside. The snowflakes were like feathers flying all over the sky, but they could not hide the impending crisis. He sighed softly, and the sigh echoed in the empty palace, with a hint of helplessness and worry.
"Chao Chao," Chu Heng slowly turned his head and looked at the dignified and gentle Queen Xie Chao Chao beside him. Her eyes seemed to reflect the snow-covered world outside, but with a hint of deep thought. "Do you have any good ideas for the multiple landslides caused by this sudden heavy snow?"
Xie Chaochao gently brushed the non-existent dust on her sleeves. Her voice was soft but firm, like a ray of warm sunshine in spring. "Your Majesty, I think that instead of discussing countermeasures in the palace, it is better to go to the front line and share the joys and sorrows with the people. The heavy snow blocked the road and the landslides blocked the way. If you and I can go out of the palace in person, it can show that the royal family cares about the people. Secondly, we can also command on the spot, allocate manpower and material resources, clear the snow and pass the road as soon as possible, and rescue the trapped people from the water and fire."
Chu Heng heard this, a glimmer of approval flashed in his eyes. He stood up, strode to Xie Chaochao, and stretched out a hand. His palm was broad and warm: "Chaochao, you can always see through my heart and give the most appropriate suggestions. I feel at ease with you accompanying me on this trip. We should not only send people to shovel snow, but also participate in person to let the people of the world know that the royal family is with the people and will go through the difficult times together."
Thus, a spontaneous trip out of the palace began with intensive preparations. Inside and outside the palace, the palace servants were busy shuttling back and forth, making final preparations for the emperor's trip. The carriage was decorated to be both solemn and warm, and the interior was covered with soft cashmere blankets to protect against the severe cold outside. Chu Heng and Xie Chaochao, dressed in heavy winter clothes, stood side by side, their figures elongated in the morning light, appearing particularly tall and resolute.
As the carriage slowly drove out of the palace gate, the scene along the way gradually became desolate and severe. Heavy snow covered the road, and in some places it even piled up like a mountain. The traces of landslides were clearly visible, and huge rocks and mud were mixed together, blocking the way forward. But Chu Heng and Xie Chaochao did not retreat at all. They got off the carriage and walked, personally joined the snow shoveling team, sweating profusely with the soldiers and civilians, and worked together to open up the lifeline.
The emperor looked at the kneeling empress Xie Chaochao with a gentle and deep gaze. Her proposal was like a breeze that blew through the long-dull palace, bringing a touch of unprecedented novelty and vitality. Xie Chaochao proposed to leave the palace tomorrow to experience the suffering of the people firsthand in order to better govern the country. This idea was like a bright star, shining in the emperor's heart.
The emperor nodded slightly, with a glimmer of approval in his eyes, as if at this moment, he saw that the queen was not only the master of the harem, but also a heroine who cared about the world. He said softly: "Chao Chao, your proposal is very much in line with my opinion. Although the palace walls are prosperous, it is difficult to know the well-being of the people. If this trip can enhance my understanding of the lives of the people, it will be a blessing for the country."
After saying this, the emperor waved his sleeves and signaled the eunuch chief eunuch Li to come over. Seeing this, Eunuch Li immediately understood what he meant, bowed, and then hurriedly left to carry out the emperor's order. Soon, the entire palace began to get busy, with servants shuttling between the palaces, making careful preparations for tomorrow's trip out of the palace.
As night falls, the moonlight shines like water on the glazed tiles of the Forbidden City, covering this ancient palace with a layer of mysterious silver gauze. In the bedroom of Empress Xie Chaochao, the lights are bright, and she is personally selecting clothes and accessories for tomorrow's trip. Each piece is simple yet solemn, reflecting the majesty of the royal family while being close to the people.
At the same time, the emperor was in the imperial study, discussing with several important officials the itinerary after leaving the palace, and how to ensure safety while gaining a deep understanding of the people's sentiments. Sometimes they talked in low voices, sometimes they frowned, and the entire imperial study was filled with a tense and expectant atmosphere.
The minister's face was filled with irrepressible joy, like a flower suddenly blooming in spring, gorgeous and vivid. His legs bent involuntarily, and his knees gently touched the cold and hard marble floor, making a subtle but clearly audible sound, which was the deepest awe and submission to the supreme imperial power. His hands were folded in front of his forehead, and his forehead almost touched the ground, his posture was full of piety and gratitude.
"The emperor's reputation is like the bright moon in the sky, shining brightly across the world, and is admired by all people. The envoy's heart is surging and excited." The minister's voice trembled slightly, and every word seemed to come from the deepest part of his heart, full of affection and admiration. His eyes flashed with a strange light, which was an infinite admiration for the emperor's wisdom and bravery, and his good governance, and also an infinite gratitude for being able to realize his ambitions in this prosperous era.
The air around seemed to become lighter because of this sudden good news, and the originally dull and depressing atmosphere in the palace was replaced by an inexplicable vitality. The ministers' hearts were like being gently brushed by a warm current, and all the fatigue and worries disappeared at this moment, replaced by an unprecedented excitement and expectation.
He knew very well that the emperor's fame was not only a symbol of power, but also the cornerstone of national prosperity and the people's peaceful and happy life. This fame was the result of the emperor's diligence in government affairs and his concern for the people day and night, and the result of countless brave soldiers fighting bloody battles and countless capable ministers and wise men working hard. As a member of this huge empire, he was honored and proud to witness and participate in it.
