The system forced me to be emperor

The three left here and returned to Champion Hou's Mansion.

Seeing that the three returned safely, everyone's heart finally fell.

Zhuge Yuanba's big man's eyes turned red. He has no children, and he treated Zhuge Liuying as if he was his own since he was a child. This time, he almost couldn't see him. One can imagine his nervousness and worry.

"Your Highness, thank you for your kindness." Zhuge Yuanba said to Xiao Rui, clasping his fists.

Xiao Rui raised his hand and said with a smile: "I am saving my wife, it has nothing to do with you."

Zhuge Yuanba kept the kindness in his heart, and then asked: "Can you find out the identity of the other party?"

Xiao Rui handed the Candle Dragon Waist Card to Zhuge Yuanba. He closed his eyes and said angrily, "Zhao Huang! It really is you! Are you going to start a war between the two countries?"

Xiao Rui hurriedly comforted him, and it took a lot of effort to let him hold back his breath.

The matter of revenge needs to be considered in the long run.

Chapter 265: Disasters are ruthless and people are sympathetic

Zhuge Liuying came back safely, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they reminded Xiao Rui that they must strengthen their defenses and protect the people around them. If they can kidnap Liuying this time, they will be able to kidnap other people. Wouldn't it be troublesome to assassinate Jia Xu and Guo Jia all the time?

This is all the result of Xiao Rui's hard work on the mission, it's not Chinese cabbage, you can do it if you want, and everyone can't have an accident.

Fortunately, this time the crisis was passed without any danger, and the task was also completed.

It was a surprise.

"Ding dong... Once the task is completed, the descending value will be +10."

"Ding dong... Task 40 is completed, and the descending value is +[-]."

"The current descending value is 110/100, and the wish value is 3/4. Do you want to enable descending?"

Xiao Rui did not immediately start the descent.

As counselors, there are Jia Xu and Guo Jia. When I leave the capital, Jia Xu must stay. It is impossible not to keep people in the capital for planning, so I can only take Guo Jia to leave the capital, but Guo Jia is enough Now, Guo Jia's intelligence is not inferior to Jia Xu, so there is no shortage of counselors for the time being.

In terms of weapons or items, Xiao Rui didn't have any urgent needs.

Then there are only fierce generals left, and there is indeed a lack of masters around him.

Wu Zhanfa and Wei Guang stayed in Huben Pavilion, which was a secret base, and there was nothing to lose.Li Kui still needs to protect Jia Xu, so the only person who can follow him to leave the capital is Li Yuanfang. Although Yuanfang is a top five expert, if he encounters another attack from Zhao Guo's Nine Yin Forbidden Army, he will be no match for him.

It's a pity that I am not good at martial arts, and I am still stuck in the second rank, which feels very embarrassing.

"It would be great if someone with high martial arts skills came this time." Xiao Rui couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

It's a pity that the wish value is only 3/4, and you can't make a wish, so you can only resign yourself to fate when you come.

"Forget it, let's talk about it later." Xiao Rui lost interest for a while, so he didn't rush to start the advent.

The next day, continue to work hard to go to the morning court.

The examination was successfully concluded yesterday, so His Majesty praised Zhou Mingwen early.

Zhou Mingwen naturally praised His Majesty's divine protection, and he was full of flattery, but the cracked arc at the corner of his mouth showed his inner joy.

It is a great honor to be the chief examiner. Feng Gongxian, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, is already old, and I am afraid that he will not be able to compete for the position of Minister of Rites in the future. Then he has no competitors. As long as he earns enough merits, he can skyrocket. As long as he sits as Minister of Rites, he will definitely enter the cabinet , became one of the best people in the Great Xia court.

So, can he be unhappy?

Xiao Yiheng is also happy, he is a person who is in good spirits on happy occasions, not only has heirs and successors, but also his own advantages are becoming more and more obvious, how can he not be happy?

Xiao Jing was also very happy, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

He had already received rumors that there was a case of cheating in the imperial examination this time, and he had already contacted the eldest prince Xiao Lie, and the two of them agreed to investigate, if the rumor was true, hehe, it would be wonderful.

Xiao Rui is also very happy. It is the happiest thing to see you guys fighting with each other.

From this point of view, everyone is happy, but unfortunately...

His Majesty is not happy.

Near the end of the morning court, Emperor Xia focused on one thing, which made everyone's expressions change.

"Yesterday, Huainan Mansion sent urgent information. An earthquake occurred fifty miles north of Huainan Mansion in the early morning of yesterday. Open warehouses for disaster relief, but the disaster is serious, and I am very worried."

Yang Feiyuan, Minister of the Household Department and a college student of the Wuying Hall, came out and said: "Your Majesty, opening warehouses to relieve the urgent need can only solve the urgent need. When the ground is shaken, the fertile fields will be destroyed, the river will be flooded, and the houses will collapse. I implore Your Majesty to reduce all corvee taxes for the three prefectures exempted from disasters within three years."

"Quite." Emperor Xia nodded.

Li Mingyang, the chief assistant of the cabinet, said again: "Your Majesty, I beg you to allocate relief silver from the Ministry of Household Affairs to support the disaster-stricken areas, so as to relieve the grief of the people, and to show your majesty's great grace."

Emperor Xia agreed: "What Aiqing said is very true, and it will be followed. The cabinet will draw up an order, and the Ministry of Households will allocate silver taels as soon as possible."

Li Mingyang said again: "Your Majesty, in order to better appease the people and minimize the impact of the disaster, I suggest that a governor be appointed as an imperial envoy to supervise the disaster relief situation on behalf of His Majesty, to coordinate everything from the overall situation, and to deter the local government. Officials, avoid such bad things as poor performance or even corruption."

Emperor Xia nodded, and glanced at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Some officials lowered their heads subconsciously. This is not a good job. Who wants to go to the place of the earthquake?It's better now that it's early spring. If it's hot, the plague is easy to break out in that kind of place.Secondly, the disaster areas are full of refugees. If one is not handled well, the refugees will cause mutiny.Although the Ministry of Households opened the national treasury and took out the money for disaster relief, His Majesty's eyes are staring, and he can't be greedy. He can only hug a little cheap and go there hard, and the gain is not worth the loss.

Moreover, this kind of errand is thankless, and it should be done well. If it can't be done well, it means that the ability is not good.

Emperor Xia glanced at the ministers, and continued to ask: "Dear dear ministers, is there anyone who would like to recommend himself?"

"My minister is willing to go!" Suddenly, Hao Yun, the censor of the left deputy capital, came out.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate was originally responsible for monitoring the world, and now he is temporarily in charge of the Yushi of Youdu, so he can naturally recommend himself.

"The minister is also willing to go!" Several senior scholars from the cabinet also came out one after another.

"My minister is also willing to go!" Song Ci, the newly appointed left servant of the Ministry of Punishment, also came out.

"Wei Chen is willing to go!"

......

Although there are slippery officials in the Great Xia court, there is no shortage of loyal and conscientious officials.

However, the princes remained silent, and none of them took the lead. Not all of them wanted to leave the capital like Xiao Rui did.

As for His Majesty, he didn't speak, and seemed to be waiting.

Xiao Rui moved.

He started to walk out, there are some things that cannot be hidden, Xiao Rui dare not say how noble he is, how capable he is, or how compassionate he is to help the world, he just thinks that if he can do something for the people in the disaster area, save more people, Doing what you can is the right thing to do.

I don't have the ability to protect the world's poor and happy, but I also have an eight-foot body and can carry some disasters!
