Chapter 43 The First Class Prince's Guards (1)
"His Majesty is here!"

After a loud shout, all the ministers knelt down and saluted.

"See the emperor, long live the emperor, long live!"

Zhuge Yuan was dressed in a yellow robe and came steadily. On a steady but still handsome face with traces of time, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and his face was also a little worried. His eyes were full of bloodshot eyes. His Majesty must have met the Tenth Prince last night. That accompanied.

All the ministers know that their majesty is the most diligent in governing and caring for the people. No matter what happens, the court still has to go to court, and the memorials still have to be reviewed.Even if he stayed up all night last night, Zhuge Yuan would definitely not let the early morning break up because of this.

King Xuan has also stood in his usual position, his expression is as gentle as before, his spirit is still good, and he can't see much tiredness.

"If you have something to play, you will retreat if there is nothing!"

When all the ministers were aware of current affairs and did not speak, Yan Yongning, the Minister of the Household Department, stepped forward and bowed: "Your Majesty, the prefect of Jiangcheng came to report that there was a sudden hailstorm in the area of ​​Jiangcheng a few days ago, causing countless injuries to the people and serious losses. , the disaster situation should not be underestimated, he begged the imperial court to allocate funds for disaster relief!"

This Yan Yongning is notoriously stubborn, he works hard for the people every day, but he doesn't receive any benefits. Although he is not a servant of the household department, he is a second-rank official, but his family is very poor.

He is well-known as a good official in the hearts of the people, but in the hearts of his colleagues, he is nothing more than a fool who doesn't understand the situation. If His Majesty didn't appreciate his honest efforts and value his status in the hearts of the people , make an exception and promote him, otherwise, with his meager connections, how could he be in his current position?

"Then how much does Aiqing think should be allocated?" Zhuge Yuan asked directly, which shows how much he trusts Yan Yongning.

Based on Zhuge Yuan's understanding of Yan Yongning, if he didn't really need relief from the court, he definitely wouldn't bring it up.

Yan Yongning said bluntly: "300 million taels!"

"Yes!" This is not a small amount, but Zhuge Yuan directly agreed to the matter, which made Chen Shangshu, who was at the side of the household department, feel quite aggrieved, and was even more disgusted with Yan Yongning. The emperor recommended other candidates for the servant, but the emperor insisted on seeing Yan Yongning, thinking that he was capable of handling affairs and knew how to be considerate of the people. He was more suitable for the position of servant than the few people he recommended, and he could not refute the emperor's proposal. mean.

He thought that after Yan Yongning became the servant of the household department, he would change his unforgiving temperament to some extent, but he didn't expect that he would intensify and record every financial revenue and expenditure clearly, which had already offended him I don't know how many royal grandchildren and nobles there are.

He is also clear about the matter of Jiangcheng, which is thousands of miles away. He thought it was enough to let His Majesty make sense, but Yan Yongning opened his mouth like a lion. 'Great wealth but small use'!
However, His Majesty is already in a bad mood today, and Chen Shangshu didn't dare to say anything more about him, so he had to let Yan Yongning take advantage of it.

"Among the ministers, is there anyone who wants to go to Jiangcheng to deliver the relief?" Zhuge Yuan looked tired, but his eyes were still very sharp, and he could see the careful thoughts of everyone present in his eyes.

As soon as the King of Qin signaled, He Chengguang, the fifth-rank Hubu doctor, took the initiative to step forward and bowed: "I am willing!"

This He Chengguang is the son of He Jinlang, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, that is, the younger brother of He Waner. The status of the He family is also quite high.
