This Prince Consort Is No Pushover!

At this time, Emperor Hongyuan suddenly felt his head hurt. He hugged his head painfully.

He felt not only a headache, but also an itch in his heart.

He immediately said, "all right! Xuefei, step back first!"

Then he looked at father-in-law Xu and said, "father-in-law Xu, I have a headache now. Go to find Chen Changqing and get a longevity pill, come on!"

"Yes, Emperor." seeing this, Duke Xu hurried out.

Xuetianxiang hurriedly said, "emperor, do you want my concubine to massage you?"

"No!" emperor Hongyuan drank bitterly and was in a bad mood. "I don't need you here. Don't get back quickly!"

Hearing the sound, Xue Tianxiang was startled and hurriedly said, "yes, emperor, my concubine and minister are leaving."

Then she hurried back.

As soon as I walked out of Guangming palace, xuetianxiang was full of worry.

She just advised emperor Hongyuan not only useless, but also was scolded and suspected by Emperor Hongyuan.

The mission failed. It seems that she has to inform Chu xuanchen quickly so that he can find another way.

Prince Li's residence

When Chu xuanchen was correcting the official documents in his study, Moli came in with a letter, "Lord, Princess Xue has sent a letter!"

Chu xuanchen put down his brush and raised his eyebrow lightly. "What does the letter say?"

Mo Li said, "said that the mission failed. The emperor couldn't listen to the advice of Princess Xue. Instead, he suspected that she was instructed."

Chu xuanchen got up and said faintly, "it seems that we have to find another way."

Mo Li raised his eyes, "Lord, what do we want to do?"

Chu xuanchen thought: "the emperor only wants to build a mausoleum and build a new palace for Dong Shishi, so he refused to release silver for disaster relief. If the emperor wants to allocate funds for disaster relief, he can only suspend the construction of the imperial mausoleum and palace."

"Suspend the construction of the imperial mausoleum? Lord, but the emperor is determined to repair, and we can't stop him at all. How can we make him stop this idea?" Moli wondered.

Chu xuanchen looked into the distance and said, "Mo Li, what would happen if the workers accidentally dug several springs when building the imperial mausoleum and let the groundwater pour back, resulting in the flooding of the imperial mausoleum?"

Mo Li was so happy that he brightened his eyes, "Lord, digging a spring in the mausoleum is an ominous sign, which also shows that this place can no longer be used to build the imperial mausoleum. In this way, don't we have reason to stop the emperor?"

Chu xuanchen hooked his lips, "well, Mo Li, I'll leave it to you."

"Yes, Lord." after Mo Li finished, he retreated.

Chu xuanchen looked at the stars in the sky. If these visions were combined with some rumors, it might prevent emperor Hongyuan from repairing the imperial mausoleum again.

This extra silver can be used for disaster relief.

A few days later, Chu xuanchen and Yun ruoyue were having dinner in a restaurant when they suddenly heard the panic of the people outside.

"No! The imperial mausoleum in the western suburbs is flooded!"

"What? Which imperial mausoleum in the western suburbs?"

"It's the imperial mausoleum that the emperor is building! When I went to the imperial mausoleum to deliver wood just now, I saw that the whole mausoleum was flooded!"

"Really? The whole mausoleum was flooded. Why?"

"It's said that the workers dug several springs while repairing the mausoleum. As a result, the spring flooded the imperial mausoleum one night!"

"Oh, this is really bad luck! How can the good imperial mausoleum dig the spring?"

Someone whispered, "it's said that the emperor is unwilling to allocate funds for disaster relief. This is God's punishment! If he wastes people and money and collects money wildly to let everyone repair the mausoleum, I'm afraid he will be eaten back by himself."

"Then maybe the emperor will suffer a bloody disaster. Is this the retribution of the emperor's refusal to help the people and his lack of benevolence?"

"It must be. He deserved it!"

Hearing this, Yun ruoyue was surprised and said, "xuanchen, I didn't expect that the imperial mausoleum was flooded. Emperor Hongyuan is really unlucky. But in this case, can he suspend the construction of the mausoleum? Take the excess silver for disaster relief?"

Chu xuanchen said, "I don't know. It shouldn't be so easy with the temper of emperor Hongyuan. I'll go to the Palace first."

"Well, you go!" Yun ruoyue said.

She really hoped that emperor Hongyuan could stop repairing the mausoleum and use his silver to help the people.

-

Soon, Chu xuanchen entered the palace and came to the Royal study of emperor Hongyuan.

At this time, the imperial study of emperor Hongyuan was full of ministers.

At this time, all the ministers gathered around emperor Hongyuan and told him about the flood of the mausoleum.

At this time, someone saw Chu xuanchen and hurriedly said, "King Li, you are also here. Are you also here for the flood of the imperial mausoleum?"

Chu xuanchen nodded, then walked to Emperor Hongyuan and saluted, "see the emperor."

Emperor Hongyuan is in a bad mood now. He waved his hand wearily and said, "xuanchen, you're just in time. Do you know that the imperial mausoleum was flooded?"

Chu xuanchen immediately said, "I just heard about it. Emperor, why was the imperial mausoleum flooded?"

"I heard that it was the workers who dug several springs that flooded the mausoleum."

Emperor Hongyuan said, wondering, "it's really strange. When I was selecting the site, I clearly asked the Minister of work to survey. Li Huai said that there was no groundwater under the land in the western suburbs, so I would build a mausoleum here. Why did I dig groundwater in the past few years?"

Chu xuanchen said, "emperor, the current survey methods are limited, and the groundwater is too deep. It's normal that Lord Li can't survey. Now the imperial mausoleum is flooded, we have to find a way to solve this problem."

Emperor Hongyuan was depressed and said, "what else can we do?"

An official said, "emperor, let's try whether we can pump out the water and see if we can continue to build on the original site?"

Chu xuanchen said, "no, there is a spring in the imperial mausoleum. There are many dark rivers below. The water is turbulent. You can't continue to build the mausoleum here. Otherwise, if the mausoleum is flooded in the future, who will be responsible?"

Emperor Hongyuan was shocked when he heard this.

He doesn't want his mausoleum to be flooded.

He immediately said, "xuanchen is right. There is an underground river below. We must not continue to build the mausoleum here. I want to build another one in another place."

When the ministers heard this, they all looked frightened.

Li Huai said heartache: "Emperor, it has taken ten years to build this mausoleum, and millions of taels of silver have been spent. I'm afraid the cost would be even greater if it was rebuilt rashly. Now the Treasury is empty, and the people all over the world are displaced and starved. We don't have money to help them. If the emperor wants to build another new tomb, I'm afraid it will be difficult for people all over the world to accept. Please think twice."

When Emperor Hongyuan heard this, he was green with iron on his face. "Repairing my mausoleum is a great plan of the country. Who dares to speak?"

"Emperor, you didn't hear the rumors outside..." Li Jin whispered.

Emperor Hongyuan swept sharply at Li Jin, with a black killing intention in his eyes, "Master Li, what are the rumors outside?"
