After the rebirth, your majesty will fight with me in the palace

Chapter 233 Encouraging merchants to donate food
"Yes, I will obey the order."

Under Jin Shengyan's personal supervision, the relief supplies were sorted out the next day.

"During the time I'm not in the court, the government affairs will be handled by the two prime ministers and Prince Ming's son together. If there is anything that can't be handled, please write to me." Jin Shengyan explained everything that should be explained clearly, so that he can There will be no worries.

Chi Tingzhen didn't expect that Jin Shengyan would entrust such an important matter to him, and he was flattered for a while.

But Chi Tingzhen will not underestimate himself, since Jin Shengyan entrusted him with the matter, he will take responsibility and help Jin Shengyan handle the court affairs well.

After the court affairs were arranged, Jin Shengyan and Hua Ruyu sent the child to Huafu on the day they left the palace.

"Father, I will trouble you to take care of Yu'er and Yue'er from now on." Hua Ruyu reluctantly placed the child in Hua Manlin's hands, and said.

"Little Yu'er, don't worry, I will take good care of my two grandchildren, and I will never leave them." Hua Manlin promised.

Hearing this, Hua Ruyu couldn't help but smile:
"That doesn't have to be the case. Father still needs his own time."

"It's getting late, little Yu'er, we should set off." Jin Shengyan glanced at Hua Ruyu in the carriage and said.

When Hua Ruyu heard this, she lowered her head and kissed Yu'er and Yue'er on the cheeks, then got into the carriage and set off for the north.

In the first two days, Hua Ruyu still missed the two children very much, but the closer she got to the destination, the less Hua Ruyu thought about it.

Because she saw the devastation and saw many people starving to death on the road, she immediately felt that Yu'er and Yue'er were very favored by the heavens. They were born in a family with no worries about food and clothing. What else should she worry about? ?

And along the way, Jin Shengyan's expression was very serious. He never expected that someone would dare to conceal the disaster situation, and some days ago, they played a song to whitewash the peace!It's just horrible!
After passing through many cities, Jin Shengyan opened the granary all the way, hoping to relieve the people, but it was far from enough, and kept urging the capital to send more grain.

"Your Majesty, if this continues, we may have run out of food before we reach the center of the disaster." Hua Ruyu frowned and said, looking at Jin Shengyan.

"I'm also considering this issue, but the disaster is so serious that I didn't expect it at all, and I don't know when the additional food will arrive." Jin Shengyan was also worried.

"If Your Majesty encourages merchants to donate food, His Majesty will give each of them a plaque to reward their deeds?" Hua Ruyu suggested.

"Is this feasible?" Jin Shengyan hesitated.

"Your Majesty, my family used to be the home of merchants. For merchants, they have plenty of silver and food, but they have no reputation. So just for a plaque, they can donate a lot of things. Why don't you try it, Your Majesty? It will be worse than the current situation." Hua Ruyu explained to Jin Shengyan.

After hearing Hua Ruyu's words, Jin Shengyan immediately asked people to publicize the matter.

On the first day, only one merchant donated ten stones of grain. Jin Shengyan and Hua Ruyu were a little disappointed. Could it be that she guessed the merchant's psychology wrong?

But on the second day, there was a chamber of commerce who jointly donated [-] shi of grain, which immediately gave hope to Jin Shengyan and Hua Ruyu.
