Lord Hou, you have been flopped again

Chapter 296 Opening a Warehouse for Disaster Relief

Seeing Di Yan coming out of the new Marquis' mansion, the attendants hurried up to meet him and asked, "His Royal Highness, are you going back to the mansion now?"

As soon as the prince returned to Beijing, he entered the palace to face the saint for his return.After finally finishing talking about military affairs with the emperor, meeting the empress, and going out of the palace, he went to the mansion of Lord Qin Xiang.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered the carriage to be changed, and stayed at the corner of the street without entering the Qin Mansion.

It wasn't until he saw the new Marquis Qin Qi coming out of the Qin mansion that His Royal Highness ordered them to follow behind, and followed them all the way to the new Marquis' mansion.

I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was seriously injured during this trip, first he rushed back to Beijing non-stop, and now he has been so busy, he should go back to the Crown Prince's Mansion for a good rest.

But he heard His Highness the Crown Prince say again, "I won't go back to the mansion yet. I'm going to visit the Ministry of Officials."

"Yes, His Royal Highness."

The entourage looked worriedly at His Royal Highness's pale face, did not dare to hesitate, and quickly opened the curtain to let the prince get into the carriage.

At this time, the official department was very busy.

It is the dry season in the south of Yan Country, and the drought is particularly severe.

In order to help the people and stabilize the hearts of the people, as in previous years, all regions have to open warehouses for disaster relief.

And this year, even the capital city is no exception.

Because the needs of the people far exceeded the reserves of the granaries in various places, and there was not enough food to eat, some refugees moved northward, and now they have arrived in Fancheng, which is less than a hundred miles away from the capital.

If refugees enter Beijing, the consequences will be disastrous.So at this time, officials from various ministries participated in opening warehouses for disaster relief, raising food from various nearby cities to resettle refugees, so as to maintain the stability of the capital.

Tong Siyi was also among them.

For official business, he has not returned to Tong's mansion for three days and three nights, and all his food and lodging are in the official department.So I don't know anything about things other than disaster relief.

"His Royal Highness is here!"

Hearing someone yelling, Tong Siyi was startled for a while, and then happily looked towards the door of the meeting hall.

Sure enough, a familiar figure was walking towards this side, with steady and arrogant steps as always.

Tong Siyi greeted him with a smile, and said respectfully together with other officials: "My humble minister greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Exemption." Di Yan looked at the haggard and tired faces of the officials, and said, "I know that everyone has worked hard for disaster relief recently. I will return to Beijing today to see you."

The officials said: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern."

Di Yan's eyes fell on Tong Siyi again. When he met Tong Siyi's humble and smiling eyes as before, Di Yan paused slightly, and a dark light flashed from the bottom of his eyes, and then disappeared quickly.

Knowing that His Highness the Crown Prince had very little personal relationship with Tong Shilang, it was natural to come to see Tong Shilang this time, and all the officials knew their interest, and quickly left one by one.

Di Yan and Tong Siyi also went to the side hall.

When Di Yan sat down, Tong Siyi said guiltily: "I don't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is returning to Beijing today, and I didn't visit him. It's really a crime."

"It doesn't matter." Di Yan's face was calm, without any abnormalities, and then he said in a low voice, "I know you are focusing on disaster relief now, you and I can get together again when we have time."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your compassion." Tong Siyi asked again, "Is your Highness the Crown Prince's trip going smoothly? Although I don't know the details, I heard that a messenger came to report to the Emperor, saying that the matter of Zhucheng is over, and the rebels have surrendered."

"That's true." Di Yan nodded and said, "Although he was injured a little bit, everything went well overall, and there is a surprise..."

Before Di Yan could finish speaking, Tong Siyi looked worried, and hurriedly asked: "Where did the prince get hurt? How did he get hurt? Is it serious?"

Tong Siyi only hated that he was a civil servant and could not protect the prince and accompany him on the battlefield.
