Chapter 220 Drought

12days ago Xuanhuan Novels 5
After seeing A Yin off, the sky gradually began to brighten. Cang Yan simply changed his court clothes, and went to court after using some breakfast with Chi Yue.

What did the ministers say? Cang Yan sat upright on the dragon throne in a bright yellow dragon robe, looking down at the ministers, but his eyes accidentally swept towards Wang Xianglin. He thought that with his personality, he must have jumped out to complain to his daughter at the first time. Unexpectedly, he just stood there alone, which surprised Cang Yan

The emperor, I have something to say. Suddenly, a minister who was a little older in a green court uniform came out.

Cang Yan narrowed his eyes and recognized that this person was Tang Huaijiang, the fourth-rank censor. He has been in court for many years. He and Wang Xianglin are said to be fellow townsmen, so they should have a good relationship.

Tell me, he wants to see what medicine they sell in the gourd

The emperor, I received news that Jingzhou suffered a severe drought, and the grain was not harvested. Hundreds of thousands of people were unable to eat, but were concealed by local officials. The people of Jingzhou had to go out of the city to beg for money. They had already gone south to Qinzhou. Although the prefect of Qinzhou had already opened a warehouse to serve porridge, it was just a drop in the bucket, for fear of causing riots, so they sent people to the capital to inform the empress and asked the emperor to investigate.

This is really the case?! Cang Yan was shocked and angry. Qinzhou was not far from Longcheng. Such a large number of victims influx would definitely cause turmoil and the consequences would be unimaginable.

I am willing to guarantee it with my head!

Li Mian!

After being named, Li Mian quickly walked forward a few steps

You go and check this for me. You allocate 50,000 taels of silver from the treasury for disaster relief...

Emperor, I think it is inappropriate, Tang Huaijiang suddenly said

Do you think it is inappropriate for me to allocate funds to provide disaster relief?

No, Weichen just thinks it is inappropriate to hand over this matter to Lord Li.

How do you say this? Cang Yan's gaze turned inadvertently to Wang Xianglin. Although this person was standing alone, he had a faint smile on his face. If he wanted to say this, he didn't know that it was impossible, but he had to hide it until now and reported it through Tang Huaijiang's mouth. He must have had some intentions.

Jingzhou is closest to Huzhou, and Huzhou has a good reputation as a fish and rice hometown. This time it was not affected by the severe drought. If the prefect of Jingzhou directly borrowed grain from Huzhou, the matter had been settled. However, all the surplus grains in Huzhou were conscripted by Lord Li as military rations and sent to the border. Even if there is money, it is difficult for this cook without rice to cook Jingzhou to be severe drought before, and Lord Li collected grain from Huzhou later. I think that the disaster victims are now displaced, and Lord Li should bear most of the responsibility.

Tang Huaijiang's words made Li Mian's face look very ugly. Although Cang Yan knew that there was something strange about it, he could not ask in front of all civil and military officials at this moment.

Li Mian, what do you have to argue about?

I am wronged! I am not aware of it in advance!

The drought is of great importance. Did Lord Li want to shirk it without knowing it?!

Cang Yan was so troubled by the two of them that he had to send an order to temporarily put Li Mian in Dali Temple. After the matter was thoroughly investigated, he would discuss it.

Tang Qing, then who do you think is more appropriate to handle this matter?

The minister believes that the third prince is upright and is the emperor's younger brother, so it is most appropriate to leave this matter to the third prince.

The Third Prince?

Cang Yan really wished he could sneer three times, his heart was bright

The Ministry of Revenue is the lifeblood of the country. Cang Yan would not hand over the Ministry of Revenue to their hands, but now he can't find a suitable person...

Third brother is busy, so I can't help it. Cang Yan's eyes turned and he stared at Cang Hong, who was standing in front and was always wandering. I felt that it would be better to leave this matter to my seventh brother.

Cang Hong, who was wandering in a sacred manner, did not react

Cang Hong

……

Cang Hong!

Yinhong realized after a while that the emperor was calling him, so she stepped forward and replied, "My dear brother is here."

I will leave this disaster relief to you, don't let me down

My brother received the order. Although I had been wandering for half an hour, Cang Hong was not a stupid person, so I immediately responded to the job.

Tang Qing, are you satisfied with this? Cang Yan asked sarcastically

The emperor is wise. Tang Huaijiang knew very well that Li Mian was Cang Yan's confidant. Now that the purpose has been achieved, he stopped when he saw it and quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

Retreat! The emperor left with a dark face and his sleeves

After leaving the hall, Cang Yan immediately whispered to Wei Xiaoguo, sending someone to tell Lu Tao that Li Mian asked him to take more care of him, and sending more people to watch him in Dali Temple.

yes

I will tell Li Mian that he will be calm and I will definitely give him justice

As soon as Cang Yan sat in the dragon chariot, he saw a person suddenly appearing out of thin air on the opposite side. That person was Cang Hong

If Cang Hong hadn't known about Cang Hong's true body, Cang Yan would have been scared half his life by his actions

Didn't anyone see it?

Of course not, what happened just now? Why did Brother Li be put into jail? Because Heibai lives in Li Mian's house, Yinhong and Li Mian are also very familiar with him. Seeing that he was put into jail, he couldn't help but feel surprised.

Li Mian was trapped. Cang Yan has known Li Mian for so many years, so he is naturally familiar with his personality. If he knew the disaster in Jingzhou, he would never hide it. Cang Yan felt that someone must have deliberately asked the prefect of Jingzhou to conceal the disaster and not let him know it, so that Li Mian could not defend himself.

Needless to ask, Cang Hong can guess who is manipulating behind the scenes

What should I do?

Let's find a way to collect grain first to solve the problem in Jingzhou
