Madam is right

Chapter 421 001. The prefect of Yangzhou came to report
After the horseman arrived at the cabinet and reported the news with the cabinet ministers, some news spread like flowing water in an instant.

The next day, the nineteenth day of the seventh month, the last day that Emperor Chengyuan had set early in the morning to recruit a bride for Princess Bahar, was also the day of the final contest.

Whether it's Bahar, Kessel, or the people in Pingjing who are waiting to watch the competition, everyone has unspeakable expectations and excitement in their hearts.

I don't know who will win it, and I don't know if there will be someone who can make the Kessel warrior lose once and for all.

Not long after Maoshi had passed, people began to arrive in front of the arena at Caishikou one after another.

In order to see the face of the emperor with their own eyes, and to witness the competition more clearly, the spectators came to Caishikou early and occupied a powerful position in front of the ring, just to watch the competition up close.

----

At the right time, under the sound of He Lai's "The Emperor is here", Zhao Yin walked into the Golden Luan Hall.

After all the officials kowtowed, Zhao Yin waited for the officials to play as usual.

It's just something different today.

Zhao Yincai had just sat down on the dragon chair when a man in armor rushed into the Golden Luan Hall while shouting "report--".

I saw that man ran to the front of the main hall, knelt down in front of Emperor Chengyuan with a plop, and said loudly: "Report to Your Majesty, Yangzhou [-] li to report urgently!"

Zhao Yin felt a little uneasy in his heart, and immediately said: "Say!"

"My lord, the magistrate of Yangzhou has come to report that there has been heavy rain in the Jiangnan area recently. Due to the sudden heavy rain, the Yangzhou area has been flooded. The Qiao'an dam has burst, and the Yangzhou dam is in danger. Many people in Xuzhou are homeless. The disaster is serious and urgent! "

Zhao Yin continued to listen to the man's report.

Listening to him talking about the disaster situation in the south of the Yangtze River, the displacement of the people, the flooding of good fields caused by heavy rain and embankment failure, landslides and other secondary disasters, Zhao Yin's brows became more and more wrinkled.

When the man finished speaking, there was still a long silence above the hall, no one spoke, and no one dared to speak.

I don't know how long this silence lasted, Zhao Yincai said: "The disaster in the south of the Yangtze River is serious, what countermeasures can all the loves do?"

As soon as Zhao Yin finished speaking, the officials above the court began to look at each other, no one dared to be the first to speak.

All the officials were still looking at each other and didn't know how to speak, so Zhao Jue stood up first.

Zhao Jue took a step forward, stood at the front of the main hall, bowed to Emperor Chengyuan, and said: "Returning to the emperor, my son thinks that the disaster in the south of the Yangtze River is urgent, and Yangzhou is only one of the disaster-stricken places. The court should set an example at this time and send People went to the disaster relief, appease the people, and sent more people to build dams to resist the flood.”

Zhao Yin listened, nodded his head, and said: "The prince's words are reasonable, and the disaster relief is really urgent. I didn't expect that the disaster in Yangzhou would be so severe this time."

What Zhao Jue said is reasonable. In Zhao Yin's view, what Zhao Jue said is the most basic reaction of an official when facing natural disasters and man-made disasters. After that, none of them dared to speak.

Zhao Yin glanced coldly at the officials below who were still whispering, and said: "The disaster in Yangzhou is so serious, don't my dear friends have anything to say?"

As if waiting for Zhao Yin to ask this question, as soon as Zhao Yin finished speaking, Shao Deming walked out of the queue and replied: "Go back to the emperor, I have something to say."
