Last winter was a bit strange. There was no snow. There were different opinions. Some were good and some were bad. The people were pragmatic. As long as they didn't hinder their life and snow, they didn't take it to heart. They thought that although the weather was cold, it would be better after spring.

After stung, not long to the equinox, spring rain run like crisp, tangled under the street lane, all shrouded in drizzle, there is a bit of river rain taste.

The common people think that it's good to have no snow in winter and rain in spring. At least the crops in the field don't have to worry.

It's been raining for half a month. Before, it was drizzling. Later, it was pounding on the windows of every household. Later, it was pouring like a column. There were white flowers all over the sky. You can't see people from a distance. The water flow on the street was not fast. There was water everywhere. It was very inconvenient for people to go out. Men were OK except for shoes and socks There are many inconveniences for women. They are afraid that they will not go out if they are ill.

Inconvenient life is still a small matter, not long after, all over the disaster like a snowflake flew to the emperor's desk.

When he and the prince went to court every day, they went into the South study to discuss disaster relief with the ministers. Although there are many and complicated things, the emperor and the prince are not in chaos in the face of danger. They should deal with them one by one according to their priorities. They should dispatch troops from all over the country to rush to the port for emergency repair, open granaries to relieve the victims, and strengthen patrols in all prefectures and counties, so as not to make trouble for the victims.

With the implementation of effective measures, the reported discount is gradually reduced, and the gap that can be blocked has been blocked. However, the disaster is irreversible. There are still a large number of victims who have no fixed place to live, become refugees, flee everywhere, and become an unstable factor of the country. However, the Treasury was almost empty, and the emperor's wife could not make a meal without rice.

The prince frowned and said, "father, for the moment, we can only do something about taxation, so that we can postpone our urgent task..."

The emperor waved his hand, "no, now the people are affected by the disaster. It's worse to add taxes. You'd better think of other ways."

The prince said, "now there's no other way to think about it. The rich people in the city have volunteered to donate money and materials once. It's not good for them to donate again."

The emperor felt his chin and said to Jia Tong, "go and invite general Du."

The crown prince's eyebrows slightly picked, and he probably guessed the emperor's idea. Instead of asking for donations, he would rather take the richest family and cut it. After all, the richest man in Lin'an City is not so easy to be. He is always under the emperor's eyes.

No one knows what the emperor and general Du said. The emperor told everyone to withdraw. Only he and Du Changfeng were in the room. About an hour later, general Du withdrew and left with a heavy face. There was a kind of solemn and stirring feeling that the wind was rustling and the water was cold, and the strong man was gone.

When Du Changfeng returns to the house, Shi Yingying is discussing with Shi pengpeng about opening a silver village. If there is more silver, it's better to have it in another silver village than in her own. With the turnover money, she can plan more things.

Seeing that her family's general Du didn't look very well, he asked, "I'll come back early today. What's the matter?"

Du Changfeng did not speak, but sighed. Shi pengpeng knew that her parents had something to talk about, so she cleverly withdrew and took the door with her so that they could talk.

Du Changfeng sighed heavily and sat down at the table. Shi Yingying poured him a glass of water. "Say, what's the matter? Is the emperor going to send you to build the reservoir

Du Changfeng shook his head and said nothing.

Shi Yingying was an acute man. Seeing that he refused to speak, his voice rose, "you are talking. Do you want to die in a hurry?"

Du Changfeng raised his eyes to see her, a pair of want to say to still rest of appearance, finally is heavily sigh a breath, still don't speak.

Shi Yingying didn't see her husband so sad. Knowing that the matter was very serious, she put her hand on the back of Du Changfeng's hand and slowed down her tone. "Come on, what's the matter? We're husband and wife. We're good or bad. We'll carry it together. There's no barrier we can't cross. "

Du Changfeng was stuffy for a long time, and finally said, "the emperor asked me to borrow money."

Shi Yingying wondered, "does the emperor want to borrow money from you? Why don't you borrow it from me? "

"Maybe I'm his minister, so I can speak better."

Shi Yingying said, "if the emperor borrows money, he will borrow money. Why do you feel so embarrassed?"

Du Changfeng muttered, "I'm afraid you're embarrassed."

"What's my dilemma? How much does he want to borrow?"

"Two, two hundred, ten thousand Liang..."

Shi Yingying gasped, "he really dares to speak. Isn't this to destroy my historical records?"

Du Changfeng looked at her and bowed his head in panic. "I knew you would be embarrassed."

"You agreed?"

“…… Well

Shi Yingying said to the back of his head, "you've got wind. How dare you borrow so much money? With this money is not earned by you, you don't care! Du Changfeng, the money is mine. What qualifications do you have to promise? "

"Don't you say that I am the head of the family?" the burly man pretended to be pitiful. He was a bit funny. "There was no joke before you. I agreed. If you can't raise money, the emperor will kill me."Shi Yingying is angry, "let the emperor kill you."

Du Changfeng lowered his head again. After a while, he stood up and put pen and ink on the table, ready to write.

Shi Yingying looked at him coldly and didn't want to talk.

Du Changfeng spread out the paper and looked at her with pathetic eyes. "Yingying, it's all my fault. For a moment, I'm soft hearted and promise to come down. If you don't agree, I don't blame you. It's my promise. The emperor wants to kill me. I have nothing to say. I just ask him not to blame you. I write this letter to show that it has nothing to do with you any more, and all the consequences will be borne by me alone."

When she dipped the pen in the ink, her eyes were red. It was said that a man would not flick his tears lightly. When Shi Yingying saw him like this, she felt like burning with fire. She grabbed the pen and threw it on the ground. She cried: "husband and wife are one, so we should bear the burden of nature together. Don't make such a dead look to be annoying. It's 200000 taels of silver, but I'll lose my fortune 。”

Du Changfeng looked at her and was moved to tears. He hugged her tightly. "Yingying, I knew you were a man of great righteousness. In fact, the emperor also had his difficulties. The people were affected by the disaster and the refugees fled everywhere. He had no way to speak to me. Don't worry. The emperor said that he will return the money slowly, and you won't lose a cent. "

Shi Yingying sighs silently in her heart that the two kings and ministers are working together to force her. She has heard about the plight of Dongyue. After suffering from the disaster, her business is not easy to do. The emperor is a monarch. When he sees the suffering of the people, he can't sit back and ignore it. Although Du Changfeng was born in martial arts, he has a soft heart. The emperor is very resourceful. He asks him for a few complaints, and he agrees to everything.

But what can be done? She still has a strong point in her mind, which is better, 200000 yuan or Du Changfeng.
