Madam is right

Chapter 423 003. Disaster Relief
As soon as Shao Deming heard it, he turned to Emperor Chengyuan and said with righteous indignation: "Your Majesty, when Lord Ding supervised the construction of the Jin'an Dam, he patrolled the dam every three days. That's why the Jin'an Dam has survived the rain for more than ten years. The crown prince Your Highness, isn't this just your dereliction of duty?"

Zhao Jue looked up at Zhao Yin's face, and saw that Zhao Yin's face was obviously a little gloomy at the moment.

Although Zhao Jue had a lot to say against Shao Deming, he didn't want to say it now.

Because he also felt that maybe he was wrong when he patrolled the river dam for half a month.This caused the people to be displaced, homeless, and what's more, they lost their lives in this disaster.

If he had done more by himself back then, wouldn't such a thing have happened?
No matter how much he proves himself in this hall, the lost homes and injuries suffered by those common people are irreparable.

Zhao Jue was silent and did not speak.

Zhao Yin asked Zhao Jue with a gloomy face, "Prince, do you have anything else to say?!"

Zhao Jue had no choice but to kneel in the main hall and said, "I have nothing to say."

After hearing this, Shao Deming curled up the corners of his mouth proudly.

And Baiguan also saw that Zhao Yin seemed to be suppressing his anger at this time, and for a while, no one dared to stand up and speak for Zhao Jue.

If Zhao Mo was in the court at this time, he would definitely speak for Zhao Jue, but the new virtuous king has only been crowned king for a few days, and all the officials in the court know that he is just an idle prince with a vain name.

Even if Zhao Mo didn't come to court right now, no one cared about him.

At this time, King Qi, who had always been at odds with Prince Zhao Jue, suddenly stood up.

He came out and saluted to Emperor Cheng Yuan before saying: "Report to Emperor Father, I believe that the responsibility for this matter does not lie entirely on the second brother."

These words sounded new, Zhao Jin would actually speak for himself, the younger brother of the prince.

Zhao Yin frowned slightly, and asked: "What does King Qi mean by this?"

"Returning to my father, my son thinks that according to His Royal Highness, he is definitely not a negligent person. What the prime minister said is also reasonable, but it is only a matter of the stability of the dam. Apart from the quality of the building when the dam was built, every year in the future Dam reinforcement is also extremely important. Erchen believes that the officials responsible for supervising the reinforcement of the accidents at Qiao’an Dam and Yangzhou Dam cannot escape the blame.”

After hearing Zhao Jin's words, Zhao Yin's face looked a little better.

But what Zhao Jin said was a blow to Zhao Jue's charge of dereliction of duty.This trick is to retreat to advance, it is really handy.

Shao Deming naturally knew what Zhao Jin meant by doing this. After exchanging a look with Zhao Jin, Shao Deming quickly followed Zhao Jin's words and apologized to Zhao Jue. He also said that he had made a mistake in front of Emperor Chengyuan and asked Zhao Yin to punish him. .

This old fox is obviously obedient even after taking advantage of it. Of course, it is impossible for Zhao Yin to really punish him.

In this way, the topic was smoothly shifted from the matter of guilt to the matter of discussing who to send to Yangzhou for disaster relief.

And this matter has obviously become a hot potato again.

The matter of disaster relief is simple to say, but in fact, there are many ways to do it.

Although they only went to the disaster area with relief money and relief supplies, if the relief person was a little careless, he might die on the way to the disaster relief due to various reasons.

Even if he escaped all kinds of unexplained pursuits and disaster relief, it meant leaving the capital and the center of power, and when he came back, the capital might have already changed.
