After forcibly taking the blood of the sick and delicate prince to renew his life

Chapter 43
Just after New Year's Eve, Lantern Festival ushered in again.

The winter of Yuezhi receded quietly, the ice and snow melted, and spring sprouted.

The Golden Luan Hall was in a downturn.

"However, due to the mere floods, not only the local officials were lost, but even the imperial envoys sent there were also missing."

"—Is this the answer you gave me?!"

Emperor Ming sat on the dragon chair and angrily threw the booklet in his hand.

He looked at Lin Gui, the servant of the household department, with deep eyes, and felt his blood surging!

A bunch of idiots!
"Your Majesty calm down, I have sent more people to find Mr. Zhang, but..."

Lin Gui stopped in a timely manner and became hesitant.

He looked at Emperor Ming's gloomy face, and said cautiously: "I received a letter saying that Mr. Zhang disappeared with the disaster relief money. I don't know if it's...is it..."

The ministers above the court looked at me and I looked at you, all guessing the meaning of Lin's deceitful words.

Emperor Ming glanced coldly, and said in a deep voice, "Say!"

Lin Gui put his posture extremely low. He hesitated for a while, and said as if he was going to die: "I am so bold, I hope your majesty will forgive me!"

"Wei Chen's subordinates came to report that the disaster relief funds and relief food had never been delivered to East Antarctica, Mr. Zhang... absconded with the money!"

One stone caused a thousand waves!

Everyone's face changed suddenly.

"Impossible! It is absolutely impossible for Mr. Zhang to do such a disobedient thing to destroy the nine clans! Please learn from your Majesty!"

Some courtiers who were friends with Zhang Yan or who knew Zhang Yan well retorted.

Emperor Ming frowned slightly, and his sharp eyes scanned everyone in the hall.

"Oh? Master Xu is so sure, then tell me where did Master Zhang Yan and the relief money go?"

Lin Gui bit Master Xu, who was complaining about Zhang Yan, and asked.

"Does Master Lin have any evidence to prove that Master Zhang absconded with money instead of encountering an accident?"

"The folk customs in Dongjizhou are tough, and Mr. Zhang is a civil servant. If he is persecuted by someone with a heart, he may not be sure."

"How can Master Lin be so arbitrary and easily convict Master Zhang!"

Mr. Xu argued hard.

"What Mr. Xu said is reasonable, we really can't jump to conclusions."

The courtiers who were watching couldn't help but nodded in agreement as they listened to the debate between the two.

Lin Gui's face darkened, and just as he was about to argue again, someone in the hall said: "Master Xu! This is not the time to be arrogant."

"Since you said that the people of East Antarctica are strong and strong, Mr. Zhang is afraid of accidents, but with the army under General Xuanwei accompanying him, who would dare to make a mistake?"

"And why are there so many people accompanying him, but only Mr. Zhang disappeared with his personal guards! How can this be explained?"

Lin Gui glanced at him and held back his voice.

"This..." Master Xu was momentarily at a loss for words.

Yue Jue stood directly in front, listening to the statements of several people, her brows were slightly frowned.

Zhang Yan is a clean and honest official, if he wanted to embezzle the money for disaster relief, he would definitely not be so hasty.

This amount of money and food is not small, but it is not worth ruining his official career.

As long as he is an official in the court, he will have a steady stream of opportunities, why take such a risk, it is not worth it for a mere 10 taels of silver.

There must be something strange about this!

"Yue Jing, what do you think?" Emperor Ming, who had been sitting silently on the dragon chair for a long while, spoke out suddenly.

Yue Jing paused, even Lin Gui looked at Emperor Ming in surprise.

Doesn't Your Majesty always value the prince's opinion the most? When will he want to hear the opinion of the third prince?

Lin Gui glanced calmly at Yue Jing who was at the front, narrowing his eyes slightly.

"My son believes that there are still doubts about this matter, so don't jump to conclusions."

"The most urgent task is to find the missing Mr. Zhang and the relief food as soon as possible, so as to appease the people in the disaster area."

Yuejing bowed and said loudly.

Yue Jue looked at Yue Jing, met his gaze, and nodded appreciatively with slightly curved lips.

Once upon a time, Yuejing running behind his buttocks was already this big.

Yue Jing looked at the light in Yue Jue's eyes, her palms tightened suddenly, and he lowered his eyelids so he couldn't see clearly.

Yue Lin looked at the two brothers and sisters, and then glanced at Yue Jing, with a contemptuous twitch of his lips.

It's really a fox.

Emperor Ming remained silent after hearing Yue Jing's answer, his dark eyes were as deep as ink, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Then he asked: "What does the prince think?"

"My son agrees with Yue Jing's statement, no matter Mr. Zhang is guilty or not, the most urgent thing is to provide disaster relief first."

"After finding Mr. Zhang, the truth of the matter will be revealed."

Yue Jue bowed and bowed. Dongjizhou has been suffering from floods for more than half a month. Now Mr. Zhang is missing and the magistrate is gone. The situation in the disaster-stricken area without food is extremely bad. If it continues, there may be future troubles.

Emperor Ming nodded slightly, staring at the Minister of Humerus with his dark and sharp eyes, and lightly tapped the moon-white dragon robe with his fingertips:

"Zhang Yan is missing, and money and food are also missing. These can be found slowly, but the people of Dongjizhou are in dire straits, and they can't afford to wait."

"So, who do you think is appropriate to send now?"

The noisy court fell silent in an instant, and the Golden Luan Hall, which was still discussing fiercely just now, was completely silent.

It is very unusual for two adults to disappear one after another.

Even if you want to be greedy for merit, it depends on whether you have your life back.

Emperor Ming's eyes searched and appraised everyone, and Yue Jue's movement of taking a step forward was stopped by his eyes.

Yue Jue was puzzled, but she still endured her doubts.

Father always has deep meaning in doing things.

"Lin Aiqing thinks who should be the right one?" Emperor Ming looked at Lin Gui who buried his head the lowest, and asked quietly.

Lin Gui's eyes moved slightly, and he lowered his head: "This minister is willing to share the emperor's worries."

Emperor Ming looked at Lin Gui deeply, and the air became strangely quiet.

The officials lowered their brows and eyes, did not dare to raise their heads, and even breathed lightly.

Just when everyone thought they were going to suffocate to death.

"You don't need to go to Dongjizhou, Lin Aiqing is inseparable from the court." Emperor Ming raised his eyelids and said softly.

Lin You's lowered eyes flickered slightly, and he fought again: "Your Majesty, minister..."

Before Lin Gui could finish speaking, Emperor Ming interrupted and glanced at the silent Yuejing.

He seemed to ask casually: "Would Yuejing go?"

Yue Jue looked at Emperor Ming fiercely.

Anle Hall.

Yan Qi sat in front of the bronze mirror and drew his eyebrows, waiting for Yue Jue to pick her up.

A few days ago, Yue Jue said that today she would take her out of the palace to watch the Lantern Festival lanterns.

She has been looking forward to it for a long time.

Cang Lan's medicine is more and more effective.

Every time she gets sick, she only needs to take Canglan's medicine to get over the bone-crushing pain in front of her.

You don't need to drink Jiang Qi's blood to survive the poisonous hair.

Yes, she is in good spirits.

Wen Mo said that if she didn't get Jiang Qi's blood, her illness would recur.

It can be seen that he is talking nonsense, and it is still far behind Canglan's medical skills.

She just took Canglan's medicine, isn't she fine?
After finishing packing, Yan Qi sat by the window and ate pastries. She found that she never got tired of the rose cakes brought by the imperial dining room.

Suddenly, a moon-white figure came into view.

Yan Qi's eyes suddenly brightened like stars.

"Brother Emperor!"

Yue Jue, who heard the voice, looked over in response, and saw Yue Huan's smiling face, Yue Jue's frowning eyebrows relaxed.

Yan Qi hurriedly ran to the door to meet Yue Jue, she held Yue Jue's hand delicately and shook it, not noticing his absent-minded expression.

"Brother Huang, are you leaving now?"
