Chapter 525 Everyone insists on their own opinions
Leng Xi snorted with his nose, "General Liu's words are different. Who knows if these victims are really affected by the disaster? Or are they mixed with Gentile enemies? Now in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang area, the court
It is not clear that the authenticity of the memorial is still unknown. It is not wise to rashly put these victims into the city."
Yu Shiming also answered:
"I also think Prince Xi's words make sense. Now the emperor is seriously ill and it is inconvenient to deal with state affairs. The treasury door cannot be opened. What results can we find here? Let's stop them outside the city first and wait until the emperor gets better.
, make a decision again!”
Liu Dechang gritted his teeth and looked at Yu Shiming, and replied with hatred:
"Sir Yu, I used to respect you as a good official who loved the people as my son, but why are you so cold-blooded now? Who would have been willing to sleep in the open and travel to the capital for a long distance? They came to sue the emperor, and they were given half a year ago
After the flood, the capital was completely unaware of it. Local officials made memorials many times and the memorials were suppressed. Do you actually doubt the authenticity of these victims? When the emperor wakes up, this general will definitely submit a memorial. Please investigate thoroughly.
, Who is so bold that he dares to deliberately suppress the memorials of officials in Jiangsu and Zhejiang?"
As soon as he said this, several officials from the Ministry of Revenue present became nervous in an instant, and one of them began to sweat on his forehead.
While these people were talking, Leng Yu didn't say anything. He just looked coldly and listened quietly.
When he mentioned the memorial, his face turned white and blue. His dark eyes tightened, and he raised his voice and asked:
"Mr. Zhang, the Ministry of Revenue, why did the memorials that should have been to the memorial hall come to your Ministry of Revenue? Why did the memorials about Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas be stopped by your Ministry of Revenue? Not only that, do you hide them and do not report them? Are you aware of your crime?"
Seeing Leng Yu's tone was harsh, Lord Zhang shuddered, knelt directly on the ground, and replied in a trembling voice:
"Return... Go back to Prince Yu, the officials are not aware of it. Go back... Go back to Prince Yu, you must check the matter carefully, and please... Please ask Prince Yu to give Prince Yu some time."
Leng Yu's smart eyes flashed a few times, and nodded with a dark face.
"Okay, I will give you three days. Within three days, I can't find out why. You, as an official, will be the end and go home to take care of your old age!"
"The lower official understands, the lower official understands."
"besides……"
Leng Yu looked at Lord Zhang who was kneeling on the ground, his eyes flashed, and he continued:
"Since your Ministry of Revenue has been suppressed by your private memorial, the Chaoxing has no idea about the disaster that the people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have been affected. Now there are so many disaster victims coming to the capital to conquer, your Ministry of Revenue will be responsible for this. I ordered the Ministry of Revenue to
All officials above the third rank will take out 1,000 taels of silver, and those below the third rank will take 500 taels of silver for temporary resettlement of these victims. As for Lord Zhang, you should lead by example and give 3,000 taels of silver.
.”
"Prince..."
"Mr. Zhang has any objection?"
Leng Yu looked at Lord Zhang with a pair of stern eyes, scaring that Lord Zhang was about to swallow what he said, but he nodded quickly.
"The officials understand that even if the officials give their best, they will help these victims overcome the difficulties."
"Take all your strength? These three thousand taels are just a drop in the bucket for you, Lord Zhang!"
"Your Prince Yu said..."
After saying this, Lord Zhang suddenly realized that he had a mistake in his tongue and quickly changed his words:
"The officials...the officials are just second-rank officials, with only eighty taels of salary per month. The officials...the officials will go back and sell their responsibilities and make up enough for the three thousand taels to prevent the victims from enduring hunger.
.”
Seeing that he was talking pitifully, Leng Yu raised his eyebrows disdainfully, "Okay, Lord Zhang, let's go back and arrange my words. I will pass on my words. Within three days, I will not find out the secret seizure of the memorial. I will send someone in person.
Go and check it out, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
"The official understands, the official will do it now."
Leaving this sentence, Lord Zhang got up from the ground and couldn't wait to run outside before he could wipe the sweat from his forehead. Because he ran too fast, he almost collided with Luo Lan who had just entered.
Mr. Zhang, Luo Lan, was not familiar with this Princess Yu, but Mr. Zhang was familiar with him. He hurriedly nodded and apologized like pounding garlic.
"Princess Yu, I almost bumped into you, I am guilty."
Luo Lan glanced at him, her eyes tightened, and then said softly:
"No obstacle, you can walk slowly."
Seeing that Luo Lan did not blame him, Lord Zhang then took a big step and ran away like a row.
The wife came, Leng Yu was the first to meet her. Leng Xi and Yu Shiming frowned at the same time, and Liu Dechang also faced her with a serious expression.
"Madam, why are you here?"
Luo Lan glanced at him and replied with a chuckling:
"Come and see you."
"Let Xiao Gemini take you to the room and wait for me for a while. After I finish the business, I will come to you."
Leng Yu's voice was extremely gentle, and Luo Lan nodded obediently.
"good."
After saying that, she nodded to Liu Dechang and did not enter the door of the imperial study room, but led by Xiao Gemini to the ear room next to her.
As soon as he opened the door of the ear room, Xiao Gemini couldn't wait to introduce:
"The prince hasn't been sleeping well for two nights. The disaster victims have made him very distressed. Now you can come. Please advise the prince more. You can't let him continue like this, otherwise, what if you're hungry, why are you so angry?
Where to do it?"
"Well, how are the situations of the victims?"
The little Gemini pulled open the chair beside the table and signaled Luo Lan to sit down. Then she replied opposite her:
"According to the news that Brother Ling came back, there were at least 30,000 victims coming to the capital this time. If nothing unexpected happens, they will arrive in the capital in another day and a half, that is, tomorrow night, the prince is now
Discussing countermeasures with several ministers.”
Thirty thousand people?
Luo Lan took a deep breath,
"Thirty thousand people? This capital city is only a 100,000 population. If these 30,000 people break into the capital city, then this capital city will not be in chaos."
"Yes! So the prince is worried these days. He has ordered people to build a place to temporarily resettle victims a hundred feet away from the capital, but there is still a big gap in the money..."
"Have the money from Bai'antang and Prince Yu's Mansion been used?"
"It's used. The prince took out all the cash from Prince Yu's Mansion and Bai'an Hall, and there were some items that the prince had not moved. He said that it was saved by you with great effort. He could not move, and he could not let you live the same kind as before.
The days to worry about money.”
"Why is he so stupid? Now I can make money. The court also pays full-term salary to Prince Yu's mansion. How can we worry about the money? I told him later to give the rewards the emperor gave Prince Yu's mansion and some of my jewelry that I used to be.
They all took out emergency responses, and the money was gone, and they made money in the future. The victims were hungry and could do anything."
"well!"
Little Gemini still shook her head and sighed a long time.
