Canghuan Seven Palaces

There are times of starvation and death outside the city, but the government is playing and singing every night.If the granaries are not forcibly robbed, the refugees will have no choice but to die. "

Si Cangqing looked at the man's anger and worry indifferently, "Who are you?"

Si Cangqing was aware of all the important criminals who had just inspected the audience. Before that, they robbed officials of food, and the affairs were densely deployed. Most of the dozens of important criminals present were strong men with nothing but brute force; Strong reading personality.

The man was neither arrogant nor humble, "Xiaosheng Mo Qingjue, the son of Mo Qu, a squire in Jiangdongliu County." Although he continued: "His Royal Highness has a kind heart, and he came to the flooded area. Now Qingjue has violated the law of the country, and death is not a pity; but Qingjue I beseech you boldly, Your Highness will help these million refugees, and the common people will never forget His Highness's kindness!"

Mo Qingjue's words made the commotion outside the venue quiet for a while, and they all looked at Si Cangqing expectantly.

Si Cangqing looked at Feng Lan.

Feng Lan smiled understandingly, and said to the crowd: "Fellow folks, His Highness the Crown Prince made a private visit today, and came to Jiangdong just for this flood. Don't be impatient, everyone. His Highness will definitely arrange for you and return you. A new home!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness is wise!" For a moment, all the refugees who had been crowded knelt down again.

Feng Lan walked in front of those officers and soldiers with a dignified expression, "When you receive the royal salary, you should have done your duty and shared the worries of the people, but now you are helping the evildoers." Looking at Chen Jiufan whose body was shaking slightly, Feng Lan said coldly, " As sergeants, the weapons in your hands are aimed at the enemy, not the people of our country!"

All the officers and soldiers immediately put down their weapons and knelt down, "Your Highness, spare me!"

Si Cangqing had been watching calmly, but saw Feng Lan walking in front of her, "Master..."

With no concealment of appreciation in his eyes, Si Cangqing nodded, and said to the officers and soldiers: "I will spare you this time, and I will not be an example." Glancing at the key criminals, "Let them all go!"

The prisoners hurriedly kowtowed gratefully, "Thank you, Your Highness, for not killing me."

Si Cangqing walked to the surveillance stage, scanned the audience, and said in a slow and penetrating voice, "The flood in the Nanjiang River has caused people to be displaced, and the Jiangdong government failed in their duties. Not only did they fail to resettle the refugees, but they also colluded with each other, leading to chaos among the refugees. .”

Looking at the dozens of people who have already taken off the shackles over there, "You have defied the law and violated our country's prestige. You should have been dealt with according to the law, but I think you have kindness in your heart and are worried about the people. Now you will be spared the death penalty. But You can't escape the crime of living, can you accept it?"

"The criminals are convinced!"

"Okay," Si Cangqing turned around, facing the refugees who were still kneeling on the ground, "Get up, everyone. This flood, my court's ineffectiveness has caused the people to suffer."

"Promulgate the decree of the palace, unseal Zhaoyang City, Jiangdong Mansion opens granaries, distributes official grain, and relieves refugees! Merchants who take advantage of the opportunity to drive up prices and make huge profits by taking advantage of the national crisis are unkind and immoral, and should be punished. Grain, cloth, oil and salt merchants donate rice and clothes to help the common people."

"The soaring prices this time are all due to the fact that the price of rice has been driven up. Grain, cloth, oil and salt are related to people's livelihood; the Palace announced that from today, these four types of prices will be controlled by the imperial court. If there are any more merchants colluding to monopolize prices, All should be dealt with according to the law of the country!"

"You wait for dozens of people." Si Cangqing looked at the dozens of people who led the rebellion of the refugees, "I said that you will not escape the crime of living, and since your crimes are all because of the people, today you are allowed to take the blame and make meritorious deeds and act for the people. "

"Dozens of you, help the government, lead the refugees outside the city to set up temporary tents, manage them in different areas, and appease the disturbance."

"Where food, cloth, oil and salt are insufficient, I will transfer them from the other twelve prefectures. You don't have to worry about it, and people's livelihood should be restored as soon as possible."

With Si Cangqing's will, the audience erupted, full of joy and joy, even more joyful to the point of tears!

After handing over the pre-drawn papers to Feng Lan, Si Cangqing added: "Other resettlement measures will be posted by the government in the streets and alleys. I hope you will work together to rebuild your own home!"

After a long time, the people slowly calmed down and shouted in a chaotic voice: "His Royal Highness is wise!" "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Without further words, Si Cang lowered his head, looked at Chen Jiufan who was kneeling on the sidelines, and remained silent.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please forgive me..." Si Cangqing's action just now made Chen Jiufan feel bad, and now he was so anxious that he panicked and started talking nonsense, "Let me spare my life."

What answered him, apart from the joyful laughter of the people, was a heavy sense of oppression above his head.

Just when Chen Jiufan was in despair, Si Cangqing suddenly said without pursuing anything, "Take me to the posthouse!"

Now that his identity has been exposed, he can no longer go to the green ring.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness!" Chen Jiufan was startled, and then overjoyed, he quickly got up, his legs and feet were a little weak and moved, "Your Highness, please come with me!"

Those gathered refugees, under Feng Lan's arrangement, have left one after another with the officers and soldiers.

In the sky, the dark clouds gradually dispersed.

The author has something to say: open the topic tomorrow afternoon, and add a chapter today.

On behalf of Tian Xun hunting Jiangdong Mansion ([-])

"Your Highness, the refugees are basically settled properly, all the government supplies have been transferred, and the doctors and the township doctors are also gradually checking the patients." Liu Yi, who has been here for several days, reported the situation of the refugees to Si Cangqing, "Sent to Jin People in the waterlogged areas have also heard news that the broken river embankments have been repaired, and this year's rainy season is completely over."

In short, although the casualties in the Nanjiang flood were heavy, fortunately there was no major turmoil, and at this moment, everything has been resolved.

"The matter here is over, you go to the second county of Jinliu in person." Si Cangqing ordered, believing that as the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, he can do the rest of the work well, "then return to Beijing quickly."

At that time, it was time for him to start to eradicate the Qin family and carry out drastic reforms.

"Liu Yi takes orders," Liu Yi looked up at Si Cangqing's always expressionless face, the light in his eyes was slightly flowing, "Your Highness is going back to Beijing?"

Shaking his head, Si Cangqing's eyes turned slightly cold. He hadn't dealt with the prefect of Jiangdong yet, so how could he just leave like that.Seeing that Chen Jiufan seemed relieved, did he really think that he just let him go?

and……

Si Cangqing looked out the window, the sky after the storm had washed away was clear blue, dotted with patches of white clouds, "I still want to see the Qiuping sky."

Slightly puzzled, Liu Yi asked, "Qiu Pingtian, the richest man in the world? What does Your Highness want him to do?"

Glancing at the other party, literati think highly of themselves, especially look down on merchants who spend their days trying to figure things out. How does this Liu Yi, who is different from the usual sour scholars, think of it?Si Cangqing said casually: "Liu Yi, what do you think?"

Liu Yi narrowed her eyebrows slightly, and pondered for a while, "Prospering business leads to prosperity, wealth leads to people's stability, people's stability leads to security, security makes the country strong, and strength leads to safety. Doesn't your Highness think that Qiu Pingtian is a genius for developing business? If it is used by the imperial court, it will be able to prosper the business of our country, further enrich the country, and keep the army strong. From then on, there will be no internal and external troubles!"

With appreciative eyes, Si Cangqing nodded, "Continue."

Seeing Si Cangqing's rare expression of interest, Liu Yi smiled lightly, "Since His Highness has been in power, although His Majesty's handling of business has not been obvious, he has always used a certain opportunity to issue regulations on business. Liu Yi thought that after His Highness purged officials and reformed the government system, he wanted to revitalize commerce."

Liu Yi was thoughtful, and said: "Since ancient times, kings have despised business. Although there are many merchants and peddlers, there are very few real professionals. That Qiu Pingtian is the richest man in the world. He started business at the age of ten and became famous at twenty. His subordinates There are many business prodigies, if you can take him in for your own use, it will be much easier to start a business in one fell swoop."

"Besides that, Qiu Pingtian does everything he can to make a living, and his spies can be said to be spread all over the Three Kingdoms, and his highness is also a great help."

Speaking of this, the corners of Liu Yi's lips rose, and there was a little imperceptible smugness in his eyes, "Liu Yi is dull, what does Your Highness think of Liu Yi's analysis?"

Si Cangqing rested his chin lightly with his left hand, and looked at Liu Yi with probing eyes for the first time.This Liu Yi really deserves to be the number one scholar, his talent is amazing, his mind is sharp and meticulous, and it is rare, and his nature is not limited by the limitations of literati and Confucian scholars in this era.

"Your Highness..." Seeing that the other party didn't reply for a long time, but just stared at her, Liu Yi felt a little restless, and all the little bit of complacency disappeared.

Everyone said that he was unparalleled in talent, that he was clear and upright, and Si Cangqing was indeed willing to recruit him.But for more than a year, Si Cangqing has never looked at all his political achievements differently, always indifferently, with a clear understanding of everything in control.Perhaps because he is used to being sought after by others, occasionally he would feel a little bit frustrated, and even a little hopeful that at some point, this arrogant Crown Prince would impress him.

Thinking of this, Liu Yi couldn't help laughing at herself, she was just a vulgar person at first, so Ya Rulan and Ao Rumei were all flattery!

"That's right." Looking back, Si Cangqing still spoke indifferently, "You are in the household department, and it is rare for you to be transparent. At that time, I will leave this matter to you to handle."

Soon she regained her composure, and Liu Yi had no objection, "Your Highness is relying heavily on it, and Liu Yi should do her best."

At this time, Feng Lan pushed the door and entered, saw Liu Yi, nodded slightly, and came to Si Cangqing's side, "Master, everything has been arranged."

"Well," Si Cangqing stood up, looked at Feng Lan quietly, "let's go!"

"Where are you going, Master?" Feng Lan felt a little strange, now that everything was properly arranged except for Chen Jiufan and Qiu Pingtian's affairs, where is Si Cangqing going at this time.

"I pay homage to your family." Looking at Feng Lan who was stunned, Si Cangqing's eyes softened a little,
