Chapter 139: The prince will not suffer even if he is seen by me

Qin Shuhuang was shocked when he heard the news.

It wasn't until this moment that she understood why the flooded areas in the suburbs of Beijing and Lincheng were so large in her previous life!
It turns out that there are not only natural disasters but also man-made disasters!

There is a big hand secretly pushing and even controlling all of this.

This big hand only has calculations and a desire for power. Others and even the people are like grass and trees in his eyes, and he can destroy them at will as long as he needs!

Qin Shuhuang's expression became extremely serious, "Do you know who did it?"

Under the mask, Xie Xuanye frowned, "It hasn't been found out yet, the king has sent someone to investigate, if all goes well, there will be results in two days."

"Please, my lord."

"Your Highness, there is no need to be so polite with me. I am just doing what I can."

At this time, Ruihe had already brought Xie Xuanye's change of clothes.

Qin Shuhuang waved towards Ruihe, and Ruihe quickly retreated.

"Your Majesty is soaked all over. Please help Your Majesty change out of these wet clothes."

Xie Xuanye caught a glimpse of the set of clothes that Ruihe brought from the corner of his eye, and was slightly taken aback, with a gleam of joy overflowing from the bottom of his heart.

The clothes that Ruihe brought were nothing but the ones that Qin Shuhuang sewed by himself for Xuancang to try before the two got married.

Seeing this set of clothes, Xie Xuanye subconsciously nodded in agreement. When he came to his senses, he had followed Qin Shuhuang into the clean room.

Qin Shuhuang carried the clothes into the clean room, put the clothes on the small table next to her, and stretched out her hand to untie the belt around Xie Xuanye's waist.

The belt around his waist was loose, and Xie Xuanye finally recovered his voice. He grabbed Qin Shuhuang's hand to help him untie the belt, and his Adam's apple rolled, "Your Highness, how can such a trivial matter make you do it."

Qin Shuhuang raised his head to look at Xie Xuanye and tilted his head, "Then I will ask the maids to come in to serve the prince?"

Xie Xuanye shook his head hastily, "No...no need, I am used to doing it myself."

So, Qin Shuhuang let go of Xie Xuanye's belt, but she didn't move. She still stood there, looking at Xie Xuanye without blinking.

Xie Xuanye saw that Qin Shuhuang was still standing there fiercely, and opened his eyes wide in surprise, "Your Highness, won't you go out to rest?"

Qin Shuhuang shook his head, "Why should I go out, you and I are husband and wife, even if the prince is seen by Bengong, he won't suffer."

Xie Xuanye: ...

With their identities now, it seems that he has no reason to let Qin Shuhuang out.

Under the mask, Xie Xuanye's face was already burning red, and he was not willing to drive Qin Shuhuang away forcefully, so he turned around by himself and quickly took off his clothes.

The wet clothes were taken off by him repeatedly, revealing the broad shoulders and wasp waist.

The inconspicuous scar on Xie Xuanye's back is the same as Xuan Cang's.

When Xie Xuanye got into the tub, Qin Shuhuang quietly stepped out with a smile.

Xie Xuanye poured some water on himself and was about to get up and leave the tub. He carefully glanced behind him and realized that Qin Shuhuang had left.

Under the mask, his hot face slowly cooled down.

He carefully took off the mask, washed his face, got out of the bathtub, wiped off the water stains on his body, and changed into the set of clothes Qin Shuhuang brought him.

After putting on the clothes and putting on the mask again, Xie Xuanye suddenly felt that the clothes were very suitable for him, and even felt better than when Xuan Cang tried them on.

After having a meal with Xie Xuanye, Qin Shuhuang gathered his personal guards together, leaving He Yutian's team to guard the princess's mansion. The rest were all sent to the outskirts of Beijing to join the Du family's troops to participate in the rescue of the victims. in the team.

Xie Xuanye learned the news and was about to send people from the palace out, but was dissuaded by Qin Shuhuang.

"My lord, don't send out the people of the palace for the time being. If the lord wants to help me, just wait another two days. These people have other uses in my palace." Qin Shuhuang said.

Qin Shuhuang said so, how could Xie Xuanye refuse, and immediately agreed without thinking.

"My people are His Highness's. Your Highness can dispatch them at will. If anyone is disobedient, just tell me and I will take care of them." Xie Xuanye, wearing clothes sewn by Qin Shuhuang himself, declared domineeringly.

It rained for another two consecutive days, and the autumn grain that could have been salvaged had been completely ruined by this time, and there was almost no harvest in the suburbs of Beijing.

After hearing the news, the big households in Beijing began to stock up on grains, and this quickly spread to the rich and small households. Anyone who had some spare money exchanged their spare money for grain.

For a time, the price of food was so high that the people could no longer afford it after a few days.

Many small grain shops ran out of grain two days ago and closed down one after another.

In just a few days, people in the capital were already panicking.

The originally bustling West Market and East Market, restaurants, inns, snack shops, etc., have no goods and food to sell, and are sparsely populated.

In the morning, Lu Zhou, who went out with his bodyguard, came back within half an hour.

As soon as he came back, Lu Zhou reported to Qin Shuhuang: "Your Highness, there is no food for sale in the West Market. The big grain dealers in the East City are still selling food, but the price is ten times that of the previous few days, and they are still selling in limited quantities. Ordinary people have already Can’t buy food!”

Qin Shuhuang sat at the head, tightly holding the handkerchief in his hand.

In the previous life, from the beginning of this flood, the emperor's younger brother was used as a scapegoat by Qin Wei, and was slowly squeezed out of the throne!

At that time, for the sake of the Gu family, she sold her own Huangzhuang and exchanged a large amount of grain for the Gu family. Not only did the Gu family escape the disaster, but Gu Hongchao took this opportunity to save the famous Qingliu with more than half of the grain she bought. Official Liu Renren.Being favored by Liu Renci, coupled with the relationship that Gu Long and Qin Wei gained from dedicating their daughter, Gu Hongchao gained a firm foothold in the court in one fell swoop.

After Lu Zhou finished speaking, he carefully took out a letter covered with fire paint from his arms and handed it to Qin Shuhuang, "Your Highness, this is a letter sent by someone from the Lord."

Through Lu Zhou's channel, when Qin Shuhuang learned of the flood situation in the suburbs, he passed on the first-hand news to Qin Shumin in the palace.

This was a reply sent by Qin Shumin, informing Qin Shuhuang of the situation in the court.

The impact of the heavy rain and flood is getting bigger and bigger, and the county magistrate in Jingcheng can no longer hide it, and he didn't report it to the Shangguan until yesterday.

By the time it was brought to the court for discussion, four counties in the suburbs of Beijing and two neighboring cities had already been affected by the disaster.

Almost all the autumn crops in the suburbs of Beijing and the two cities were destroyed. Winter is about to begin. Without food and homes, hundreds of thousands of victims have appeared in an instant!

Manchao was shocked by this news!
Jing County and Lincheng immediately requested the opening of warehouses to release grain and allocate funds for disaster relief. As soon as they spoke, they were blocked by the Ministry of Household Affairs.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue said that the Ministry of Revenue has no extra budget, and the national treasury is already in deficit this year. Even if it is for disaster relief, the budget should be reported first, and money will be spent if nothing is said.

There was a quarrel in the court all morning, but not a penny was appropriated. Finally, the regent spoke up and said that the matter would be discussed in court tomorrow morning.

Qin Shuhuang read what was said in the letter, and his expression became colder and colder.

This group of old foxes in the court, the servants at home are crazy about buying food, don't they know about the flood in the suburbs of Beijing?
Having been officials for so many years, don't they know that disaster relief is like firefighting, and such a major event is still delayed?
It's just that everyone is pretending to be confused!
