Chapter 586: One wave comes after another
Gu Chan was also quite speechless!
To be honest, at this time, she was actually very embarrassed to ask everyone to dig into their pockets to help the victims.
After all, in order to help Xuanyuan Qing get the border relief bank, she had plundered the pockets of many officials, businessmen and wealthy businessmen in the Jiangnan area. She also knew in her heart that there would probably be no survivors of this group of people. How much money.
If this Jiaolongzuochong incident had not happened, we would have been able to accumulate wealth if we had been given a few years to recover. However, judging from the current situation, it may not be realistic.
But the problem is that the prince will definitely not give her disaster relief money, which makes her very uncomfortable.
But when the lobby fell silent, Nan Xingkuang suddenly walked in majestically, wearing a battle armor.
Gu Chan was stunned and said, "General, why are you here?"
"You didn't even call me to discuss such a big thing as rescuing the victims. You really didn't care about me. General Jiangnan is taking this seriously!" Nan Xingkuang walked to the middle of the hall and said pretending to be angry.
Gu Chanpi smiled and said, "That's not what I was thinking. Let's discuss the result first and then go to you?"
"So how are you discussing now?" Nan Xing asked wildly.
Gu Chan curled her lips in embarrassment, speechless.
Nan Xing shook his head wildly and said, "I knew you would be in trouble, and I am here to help you solve your problems. There is an imperial edict from Kyoto, and I am here to read it."
After saying that, he immediately took out the imperial edict and opened it.
Gu Chan and everyone in the lobby quickly stood up and knelt down to receive the order.
After Nan Xingkuang finished reading out the imperial edict, everyone understood. It turned out that the edict was not issued by the Crown Prince, but by the old emperor. The main idea was that he already knew about Jiaolong Zuocong in the south of the Yangtze River. Because of the floods caused by the disaster, it was decided to send relief money and food to the south of the Yangtze River, but Gu Chan, the lord, had to go to Kyoto in person to discuss the handover with the prince.
After standing up from the ground, Gu Chan's face turned green, and she completely stiffened her hands to receive the imperial edict.
"It's good now. Your Majesty is really wise! When the lord goes to Kyoto and brings back relief money and food, we in the south of the Yangtze River will be saved."
"Yes! Now that's it. Solve our troubles.”
“It doesn’t matter if the prince is in power, as long as the emperor doesn’t give up the throne, the emperor still has the final say.”
The officials, businessmen and wealthy people who didn't know what was going on were extremely happy, and they all whispered to each other.
Nan Xing waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's getting late. You all go back to your own places and wait for the lord to bring back money and food. You can come to Jiangnan City to collect it, and then return to various places for relief. They are the victims."
"Yes, General." Everyone agreed in unison.
Then everyone left happily.
Soon, only Gu Chan, Nan Xingkuang, Xu Ziguang and Cheng Hao were left in the huge lobby.
Cheng Hao looked at Gu Chan who looked ugly and said, "Master, this is definitely the prince's conspiracy. You must not go, otherwise wouldn't it be like throwing yourself into a trap?" "Then if he doesn't go, he will be disobeying the order. If we don't get the relief money and food, we will be convicted, which will give the prince a reason to kill him," Xu Ziguang said, spreading his hands.
"Hey! This is really a wave of ups and downs. Why does the prince refuse to let the master go!" Cheng Hao said with a livid face.
Nan Xingkuang said coldly, "Because he has ruined the prince more than once and wanted to take over major events in the south of the Yangtze River. Now that Jiaolong has been calmed down by him, the prince naturally has no choice but to order him to go to Kyoto and find a way to deal with it. Him . "
"Then the emperor cannot possibly know the reason! Why didn't he directly order people to send relief money and relief food, but instead helped the prince and ordered our master to go there? Hao didn't explain.
Although the old emperor of Tiancang Kingdom has retreated behind the scenes for a long time, he is not an old and foolish figure! Now, with his imperial edict, it really feels like he is helping the prince deal with Gu Chan, which makes people feel extremely suspicious.
Gu Chan came back to her senses, looked at the imperial edict in her hand and sighed, "It's a blessing, not a curse, but it's a curse that cannot be avoided. I'm afraid that I will be dead if I go to Beijing this time."
< br>"Gu Chan, since you are the lord of Jiangnan, at this time, you have to consider the millions of people in Jiangnan instead of personal gains and losses. This is the way of an emperor." Nan Xing said with a crazy smile.
"Bullshit the way of the emperor! I'm just a child, and this lord was also forced by Yan Xishan and the others before. What's the matter, now I know that I will die in Kyoto, so I still have to go?" Gu Chan cursed.
Do it!
She is neither a man nor a real prince, she is just a top-notch person.
Now that she is fine, what else can you tell her about the way to be an emperor? Isn't this just a joke on her?
A flash of disappointment flashed in Nan Xingkuang's eyes and he said, "Okay, I won't advise you. I will just be responsible for delivering the message tonight. As for whether to go to Kyoto or not, it is up to you to make your own decision. And I also understand, you just Even if you don’t go to Kyoto, you might be able to think of a way to save the people in the Jiangnan area. It just depends on whether you have the courage.”
“Would you jump into it even if you knew it was a trap?” Chan questioned.
"It depends on what's in the pit. If it's worth it for me to jump, I'll really jump." Nan Xingkuang affirmed.
Gu Chan turned her head away disdainfully.
Nan Xingkuang said again, "I'm going back to Jiangnan Camp. Think about it for yourself! If you go, set off as soon as possible. If you don't go, think about how to solve the problem of disobedience and give good treatment. An explanation from the emperor."
"I know, you can go back! I want to talk about it in one night, this is going to die, I have to think about it carefully." Gu Chan waved his hand.
Nan Xingkuang said no more and immediately turned around and left.
After he left, Cheng Hao and Xu Ziguang also resigned and left one after another.
Gu Chan was the only one left, standing in the lobby, dazed with the imperial edict in his hand.
After a while, she seemed to suddenly remember something, stuffed the imperial edict into her sleeve, then walked out of the lobby, called Tiger Eagle to take her and flew out of the Lord's Mansion, towards Jiangnan City East Street Go to Jigong Temple.
Fortunately, the Jigong Temple itself is located on a higher ground. Although the temple was flooded when the floods caused by the dragons' rebellion, after the water receded this day, everything in the Jigong Temple was considered safe. It was not destroyed by the flood.
No, when Gu Chan came over on the tiger eagle, the nine-fingered old beggar was leading the mangy dog and other beggars all night long to clean the courtyard and collect the remaining sewage and mud.
Seeing Gu Chan coming, the nine-fingered old beggar put down the broom in his hand and ordered the mangy dog and others to continue sweeping. Then he slowly stepped forward to greet her.
Gu Chan jumped off Huying's back, took out the imperial edict from her sleeve, and handed it to the nine-fingered old beggar.
