Chapter 399 399. Memorial

Looking at this scene, Emperor Qi's face suddenly turned cold.

Duke Wei wanted to say something, but the quick-eyed and quick-handed Xu Gelao preempted him.

Your Majesty, please allow me to give you a few words of reply.

Sir, please tell me.

"This is a series of natural disasters, let alone the southwest. If it happened in other places, even an official might not be able to do better than Mr. Wen!"

How do you say this?

"When the news reached Dongdu City, it was revealed that it had happened nearly a month ago. But during this period, did Your Majesty hear that the people in Shuzhou were fleeing? Did you hear reports from other local officials? Did any people petition to report Master Wen? None at all. , this shows that Lord Wen must have done something in Shuzhou, if nothing else, he has at least stabilized the people's hearts."

As he spoke, he looked at the people who had just screamed. Those people didn't dare to confront Mr. Xu Ge. They had tasted this man's power before, and they couldn't help but get a fishy taste.

Looking at the way they were avoiding each other, Xu Gelao snorted coldly.

I was very angry when I saw several adults complaining. I wonder if they could do better than Mr. Wen if they were moved to another place!

Sure enough, he spoke without any mercy, which was much better than Feng Hai's soft knife.

Bai Chaoan smiled secretly in his heart, Mr. Ge Lao, Mr. Ge Lao, even his father would not offend him.

Hearing this, Emperor Qi also felt that there was some truth to it.

It's just that the dynasty always regarded such natural disasters as ominous. During the Lantern Festival, the lantern dragon gave a prediction that there would be a good harvest in the southwest this year. But now, let alone a good harvest, it would be good even if it could appease the refugees.

Emperor Qi was very taboo on this point.

Xu Ge Lao Linglong had such a thoughtful mind, how could he not know what he was thinking, so he said it intentionally or unintentionally.

Feng Hai saw that the situation had changed, so he took a step forward and continued.

"Your Majesty, during the last expedition to the west, the Ministry of Revenue allocated a large amount of official rations to the army. Now we have to allocate more to the southwest for disaster relief. I am afraid of difficulties. Not to mention whether the food is enough, the distance is much longer. , the consumption in this process is not small. I think it is better to let the Water Transport Department transport the official rations that should be turned over this year to the southwest first. This will not only reduce the loss of official rations, but also help the victims faster, in order to fulfill your Majesty's wishes. Kindness!

His words were discussed with Prime Minister Bai and Mr. Xu Ge early in the morning.

Otherwise, King Ding had a deep mind and had planned everything before he set out for Jinling City.

Had it not been for the floods and earthquakes, they would have found excuses to make the corruption in the Water Transport Department known to everyone.

Now that there is this reason, it is more than justifiable.

Emperor Qi thought about it briefly and felt that this method was feasible, so he immediately agreed.

The Duke of Wei, who had been silent for the whole time, looked at Xu Fengbai and the other three who were singing along with a livid face.

It was really a good plan. In just a few words, he reversed Wen Zhonghe's default, and then wanted to involve the Water Transportation Department.

Why didn't he see that these people were of the same mind in the past?

Thinking of Feng Jinlin who is now in Jinling City, I am afraid that they have a wrong idea about the Water Transport Department.

Then his face returned to calmness, and he began to make calculations in his heart.

Compared with overthrowing a Shuzhou prefect in Wenzhonghe District, it would be more troublesome to move to the Water Transport Department.

Originally, he intended to send the official grain tribute paid by the Water Transport Department to Qianzhou. Now this plan cannot be changed, but there is another way.

Anyway, the food he has coveted in the past few years has been enough to feed private soldiers for two or three years. Now that refugees are everywhere, I have to say that even God is helping him and sending people to him.

Thinking of this, I felt very proud, but my face still looked like it had no desires or desires.

Emperor Qi did not notice his thoughts, but focused on the southwest matter. After thinking about it, he spoke.
