Stop acting, Your Majesty, the queen knows you're faking it

Chapter 482 He Was Too Active

The letter not only asked about the details of the disaster and the current arrangements, but also asked for a list of all the destroyed dams related to the construction and consolidation, as well as a detailed division of labor.

He felt a little relieved when the urgent document was sent out.

Chi Xinian saw his anxiety, and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him: "Okay, the distance from Kyoto to Pingxing is so long, there is no way around it. Fortunately, the supplies prepared for the victims are now gathered. As for the case, take your time.

"The people you sent out are more or less capable. I believe they can help you figure this out."

"It's that far away..." Yan Chujing pressed the hand on his shoulder, and suddenly there was a strange emotion in his eyes, "Empress, you just said that it is necessary to travel for a few days, and you can't avoid it?"

"Of course." Chi Xinian didn't know why, "This is a well-known fact, your Majesty doesn't need to delve into it, right? Going downstream by water is already the fastest way.

"Even if you are the emperor, you can't change this fact."

"Yes, that's right...No one can change..." Yan Chujing murmured.

The more he thought about it, the more fascinated he became, completely lost in his own thoughts.

Seeing him like this, Chi Xinian didn't want to disturb him, so he could only silently stay by his side, waiting for him to figure it out.

After a long time, he finally pulled Chi Xinian's hand off his shoulder and held it: "I have a guess, but I still need to confirm it!"

"What do you think?" Chi Xinian asked.

"The flood in Pingxing happened suddenly, and it was so fierce that it immediately drew all the eyes of the court on this matter. Even Beiyan's envoy, we don't care to pay more attention." Yan Chujing explained his thoughts eloquently. , "But Pingxing is far away, and it is difficult to check the specific situation. The imperial court has no way to send people to check first, and then carry out disaster relief matters.

"So, as long as I am not a person who disregards the lives of the people, I will send out the relief money and food as soon as possible.

"As for Xue Qin, he is obviously related to the Pingxing flood incident, that is to say, he is afraid that I will investigate further.

"Is it possible? In his eyes, the distance is the breaking point.

"He disturbed the disaster relief and attracted attention. Is it just to increase the cost of time on the basis of the original time, so as to help Pingxing to exonerate the people who caused the flood?"

"Your idea..." Chi Xinian frowned and shook his head slightly, "It seems reasonable at first, but when you think about it carefully, it doesn't make sense."

Yan Chujing was startled: "Then what do you mean...?"

Chi Xinian smoothed out his thoughts for him: "Think about it, let's assume that Xue Qin has a lot to do with this matter, and even counts as the person behind the scenes. The one who committed the biggest crime is not him?"

"Yes." Yan Chu nodded.

Chi Xinian continued: "Then as a person who knows that once he is found out, he will be punished and even lose the benefits he finally obtained. At this time, what will he do?
"First of all, as you said, it prevents you from investigating this matter and gives the people working below a chance to retreat, right?
"What about the second one? Should he still hide himself so that you won't find out that he has anything to do with this matter? So that if necessary, he can cut his arms and stop the loss?"

"You mean... he's exposed right now?" Yan Chujing thought for a while, and probably understood what Chi Xinian meant.

She probably felt that Xue Qin had exposed himself by being too active.
