Chapter 10 The Imperial Teacher and the Princess 10
Chapter 10 The Imperial Master and the Princess 10
While Zhu Chu was stepping up his efforts to formulate plans, there was also a lot of noise in the court over there, and it was like a storm was about to come.
The old general is old and has stopped taking care of things in recent years. However, he has accumulated great authority in the army. He will only stand up and say a few words when it comes to matters in this regard.
At this moment, his expression was solemn.
"In recent days, Ling and Feng have made many moves on the border, disturbing people's livelihood. Your Majesty, please send troops to suppress them as soon as possible."
When there is no war in the court, military power will be returned to the king. This is also a way to prevent rebellion.
But when something happens, you need to report to various levels to apply for sending troops, and the procedure is very cumbersome.
The soldiers guarding the border were also afraid of running out of time, so they simply reported to the old general directly to avoid wasting time.
Unexpectedly, before the emperor could answer, the prime minister also stood up.
"Your Majesty, the heavy rain in Qingzhou has been non-stop for the next month, which may lead to famine. I believe that the most urgent task is to resolve the issue in Qingzhou first."
What the Prime Minister said was plausible.
The land in Qingzhou is fertile and has always been an important grain-producing land. If the situation is not solved properly, the granary may be empty. As a result, there will be many more refugees in the Chen Kingdom.
It is indeed a big problem.
The old general's beard trembled and he pointed at the prime minister: "Then you can tell me that if the border is not peaceful, how can we stabilize the country?"
The Prime Minister responded: "Food is the foundation of people's livelihood. General, please tell me, did I make a mistake?"
The emperor was so troubled by their quarrel that he simply told them to shut up.
"For border matters, the crown prince and the third prince will go together to check it out. As for Qingzhou, I will ask the national master to lead people there."
The emperor made the decision immediately.
Fortunately, this arrangement was quite reasonable. It was quiet for a while, and no one raised any objections.
After the dispersion of the dynasty, the emperor uncharacteristically did not deal with the memorial, but went to the residence of the imperial preceptor first.
Jiang Yun seemed to have expected that the emperor would come at this time, and the tea on the table was just right.
He raised his hand and signaled: "Your Majesty, please sit down."
As the Imperial Preceptor, Jiang Yun is also the only person in the Chen Kingdom who can meet the emperor without kneeling.
The emperor sat down as he was told, with a lingering sadness on his face.
"Can I ask the Imperial Master to make a divination for the prince's trip?"
The prince looked most like the emperor when he was young, and his abilities were the most outstanding among the princes, so he received special attention from the emperor.
However, the prince's health was deteriorating, and the emperor was worried about the border guards.
"Of course." Jiang Yun smiled gently, "The prince's trip will be safe, so your Majesty can rest assured."
The emperor was indeed relieved when he heard this, but immediately took on a look of pleading.
"I feel a little weird about the heavy rain in Qingzhou. Can I ask the Imperial Master to go check it out?"
Qingzhou is not a rainy place. If it weren't for the fact that he had encountered so many strange things over the years, the emperor would not have immediately thought of asking for help from a national advisor.
The young man in front of him, who looked as gentle as jade, possessed power beyond the reach of ordinary people. To a certain extent, the emperor was not worried at all that he would seek to seize the throne.
After all, it is too simple for this kind of person to want the position of emperor, and there is no need to make detours.
That's why the emperor had full trust in him.
"Yes." Jiang Yun lowered his eyes and hid the strange look between his brows and eyes, "I just need to bring one person with me."
The emperor quickly asked: "Who?"
"Sixth Princess."
