Chapter 152: Unfavorable start
After the second princess saw the news about the flood, she looked a little bad. She had only been in charge of the country for a long time, and such a big thing happened, and it was a big disaster. It seemed that God was with her. On the contrary, there were no natural disasters when the eldest sister was supervising the country.
"Ministers, now that the flood has occurred, we must discuss how to treat it and come up with a charter as soon as possible."
The second princess directly threw the question to the ministers.
“I believe that the people should be treated first, and then the houses can be rebuilt after the floods have passed.”
"Food is also a problem. People will take all the food with them when they seek refuge, but the time it can be maintained is limited. After all, there is no autumn harvest yet."
"The flood will inevitably be followed by the plague. If this cannot be controlled, there will be It affects the whole country, so this must be the first priority."
"People are displaced, and robbery may occur, which must be prevented."
"Current news about the four flooded cities. The traffic is not smooth, and I don’t know what happened to the officials among them. We need to send more manpower.”
It has to be said that the courtiers of Fengqi Kingdom are not free earners with their salaries. They have already prepared what will happen before and after the disaster. The situation was explained one by one.
The second princess listened carefully. She knew that these ministers did not dare to lose their authority at the moment. If the floods spread or the plague spread after the disaster, the queen would remove these useless people from their posts without waiting for the end of her supervision.
So, after taking all aspects into consideration, the second princess began to issue instructions.
Arrange officials from nearby cities to assist in the rescue, and mobilize some new soldiers to the disaster-stricken city to help the people evacuate while preventing riots and preventing other countries from causing trouble.
Ask officials from nearby cities to open warehouses to distribute relief grains. Rich households in the city can build porridge sheds to provide porridge, and the capital also transports a batch of reserve grains to the emergency area.
The Taiyuan Hospital dispatched manpower to go with the grain transport team to the disaster-stricken cities, and summoned doctors from the cities along the way to go to the disaster-stricken cities to rescue the people and prevent the occurrence of the plague.
Lianyi looked at the book in her hand, and was quite satisfied with the order issued by the second princess. She just made a comment at the end, asking the second princess to appoint an official as an inspector to inspect and supervise the implementation of various orders, so as to avoid any violation of the orders. things.
After the second princess saw her mother’s annotation, her eyes lit up. This was exactly what she wanted. She must have hoped that the orders she gave could be well executed, and that she could be trusted by the way. Officials, contact officials from all parties openly.
Then the second princess appointed an official named Zhao as the inspector to inspect the disaster-stricken city on her behalf. Shortly after the grain transport team left the capital, Zhao Ya left the capital in a low-key manner with a group of people.
After Lianyi got up early and had a set of boxing, he took the handkerchief from Lan Xin and wiped his face. At this time, Huizhi reported:
"Xian Shijun, please see me."< br>
"Let him come in!"
"Yes."
A moment later, a wise servant in a green bamboo robe walked in. After saluting Ripples, he said directly:< br>
"The Queen and the Third Princess went to the border occupied city to fill the vacancies with the new army camp two months ago. They were left in Longling City to replenish the Zhao family's army. During this flood, the Zhao family directly sent They have recruited a group of new soldiers, and the generals leading them are also relatively marginal female generals from the Zhao family."
"You are quite well informed."
Lianyi wiped the sweat from his forehead and handed the handkerchief back to Lan Xin.
“These are the messages sent back by the people around the Third Princess.”
Xian Shijun lowered his eyes and said, these people were arranged by the Queen, so he had nothing to hide.
"The third princess is not in danger for the time being. If she is brave, she might be able to make a meritorious deed."
Ripple walked slowly towards the room. She wanted to take a bath and change clothes.
"When I change my clothes, you will have breakfast with me." "Yes."
Seeing the queen's calm face, Xian Shijun knew that the queen already knew this information, and she knew it Even more detailed than him.
Xian Shijun accompanied Lianyi to have breakfast, and then said:
"I know you are worried about the Third Princess, and the recent news from the border says that Panlong Kingdom is uneasy again. If they are separated, I am afraid they will take advantage of the flood in Fengqi Country to make a fuss. The border guards are all in high spirits. It is a good thing for the third child to leave the border. "
After hearing this, Mr. Xian Shi felt relieved. After all, it was better to provide disaster relief in Fengqi Kingdom than to go to war. Swords had no eyes. If something happened, it would be too late to save him.
Unfortunately, sometimes what you are afraid of comes to you. Just when the flood was initially under control, the secret guard arranged by the Queen to be next to the Third Princess sent back the news that the Third Princess was infected with the plague and was trapped in the disaster-stricken area. In the city.
After reading the news, Lianyi frowned. She didn't expect that the third princess's resistance was so weak. She asked Lan Xin to inform the Xian Shijun to come see her.
Xian Shijun has been restless for the past two days, and his eyelids were twitching from left to right, which made him very upset. Just when the Queen summoned him, he took care of himself and went to the Queen's yard.
When he learned that the third princess was infected with the plague, his face turned pale and his body swayed. Fortunately, he was supported by the waiter beside him in time.
"Queen."
"I know you are worried about the safety of the third child. I can't leave the capital. I can only make a trip in person. Is that feasible?"
"Yes, I am. Just go and get ready."
As soon as the Queen gave him permission to leave Zhuoxiu Garden, Xian Shijun immediately straightened his face and agreed, eager to leave now.
"I have prepared the manpower and medicinal materials. You can bring a few more capable men and you can set off tomorrow. Just remember to take care of your own health. I will be waiting for you in the capital."
"Yes."
After the wise servant agreed, he hurried back to his courtyard, ordered four servants with martial arts skills, and set off that night without waiting until the next day.
Feng Shou sent a message to Ripples the next day. She said that the one-armed fifth prince of Panlong Kingdom wanted to see the queen, and said that he had a prescription to suppress the plague.
“If you didn’t tell me, I would have forgotten that this person exists.”
Lianyi sighed with emotion. After the last city is returned, the people of Panlong Kingdom will not be able to survive at all. He didn't mention the matter of taking back the fifth prince, and he didn't care about his life or death at all, and was even suspected of blaming him.
The eldest princess originally wanted to send the person directly back to the Panlong Kingdom. As for whether the person was dead or alive after returning, it had nothing to do with their Fengqi Kingdom.
Unfortunately, Lianyi calculated that the soul traveler had only been in the body of the fifth prince for three years. It was still far from being fully integrated in ten years, so she decided to temporarily detain him.
Of course she would not provide the other party with delicious food and drink. She would go directly to do corvee work with the guilty minister to build the dam. She only had three coarse grain steamed buns and two bowls of porridge every day, as long as she did not starve to death.
The work of building dams is not easy to do. The other party must have learned that Fengqi Kingdom was affected by floods, so they jumped out and wanted to seek some benefits for themselves.
“Bring him to me.”
Ripple also wanted to know what the other party had planned.
