Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Early morning.
Lu Qing was still the last one to arrive.
Lu Qing was a little surprised when he heard the excited chatter.
After all, at times like this in the past, the Hall of Supreme Harmony was always quiet, and there would be no such noise at all.
I didn't even enter the door just now, but I heard it just outside the door.
[So happy, what big happy event is this? 】
Hearing this, the ministers all subconsciously looked towards His Majesty who was walking in.
The ministers' direct gazes fell on him, and Lu Qing was even more confused: "It must be something good, look at that excited look!" Could it be that there has been greater progress in disaster relief? ] Lu Qing thought to herself.
Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to think of anything else related to her.
Ministers: Your Majesty, you are right this time!
As soon as Lu Qing sat down, Prime Minister Su came out.
"Your Majesty, the Minister of Industry has received news that the people in Binzhou, Huizhou and Huzhou, the areas with the worst snow disasters, have been rescued. The people's homes are also under construction, and the work-for-relief method is on track. Everything is developing in a good direction, God bless me, Your Majesty!" Su Xiang couldn't help but be excited.
After all, only they themselves know how much effort these ministers have put into this matter.
In order that the disaster would no longer be serious, they had stayed up many nights and turned many hairs gray. Now that the results were achieved, they felt both proud and relieved.
"The Minister of the Ministry of Industry has been in charge of the overall situation in several places these days. I heard that he unfortunately fell ill on the road, but he still insisted on going to the field to supervise. He is a role model for us!"
"Zhang Aiqing has indeed worked hard." Seeing this, Lu Qing had to say something.
[I feel cold every day when I do nothing in the palace. Mr. Zhang is already so old, and he still has to run around for Dayu, so he suffers from old age.
When the person comes back, he must be comforted. It should be possible to give him a holiday or something, right? He should be happy, right? Well, that’s it. 】After all, in this kind of weather, she must be very happy to be able to rest at home.
Hearing this, the ministers below were a little envious of Zhang Shangshu for getting His Majesty's attention.
After all, this ancestor has never cared about any minister for so long.
Real name envy.
Zhang Zhijie and Zhang Shangshu, who were far away in Huzhou, sneezed hard at this moment.
The old son on the side turned to his father with concern, "Dad, you are not caught in the cold, are you!? You go back, your son will be guarded by you."
"I...ahem...I'm fine. Go and do your work. Gather...ahem...the disabled people who can't work."
"...Yes." The old father did not listen to the advice. As a son, he could only help him more. If he did more, his father would do less.
Looking at his son's calm and energetic figure, Zhang Shangshu, an old father, was overjoyed.
When she came out this time, the old wife didn't feel relieved, so she gave him her eldest son Zhang Daocheng.
The euphemistic name is, bringing your son to see the world.
Zhang Shangshu knew that his family was worried, so in order to reassure them, he took his eldest son Daocheng with him.
His son is also a capable person and has helped him rescue victims along the way.
Seeing the young and middle-aged women in front of him repairing the bridge damaged by heavy snow in an orderly manner, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled were all doing what they could. Everything was developing in an orderly manner. Zhang Shangshu's eyes softened. .
Although it is indeed hard to work in winter, there is nothing you can do about it. If you want to survive, you have to earn wages, exchange for food, and build houses.
It's better than before when there was no work and the whole family was just waiting to die outside. Now there is hope.
Back to business.
The ministers expressed great admiration for Zhang Shangshu.
Zhang Shangshu's side was very powerful, and the support from the imperial court could not be cut off. Immediately, the ministers began to discuss intensely.
Su Xiang's achievements in the past few days are also very remarkable.
Many wealthy gentry and wealthy businessmen contributed a lot of money because they had requests and the court was able to help them solve them. At present, more than 300,000 taels of silver have been raised, which can temporarily support various places.
Later, the ministers reported some major cases, and they were solved one after another.
Lu Qing saw that the ministers gradually stopped, thinking that today's morning court was over, so he started to prepare to withdraw from the court.
The ministers below winked, and those standing close started to push each other.
Lu Qing had good eyesight and saw it.
[A few big gentlemen, if you have something to say, why are you so shy about pushing and shoving? ] Lu Qing looked at the ministers with slightly disgusted eyes.
Hearing the sound, the pushing ministers clasped their toes on the ground in embarrassment and smiled coquettishly.
Even Su Xiang looked at the ministers inexplicably and frowned slightly.
Many ministers were also baffled and could not quite understand their operations.
Apparently they felt it was inappropriate for them to do this.
In the end, one of them came out under tremendous pressure.
Lu Qing and the ministers looked at him quietly.
"Your Majesty, your harem is empty now. It is not a long-term solution to have no one in charge!"
As soon as he said this, everyone in the hall looked at the minister in surprise.
Lu Qing's eyes almost popped out of his head.
【What's the meaning? This is asking me to get a wife! ? 】
The ministers also realized it now. Apart from His Majesty and the tenth prince, there are only a few concubines in the harem. The other princesses and princes have grown up and have gone out to build mansions. It is really deserted. His Majesty is also old enough to get married. At that time, now that Queen Mother Chen is dead, he doesn't have to worry about His Majesty's marriage. As a minister of Dayu, he must pay attention to it!
Ordinary people would be criticized if they had no heirs, but as an emperor, he couldn't have no heirs. The throne needed an heir, and the harem needed a mistress.
There are many things that the emperor is not suitable to intervene in, so the queen, the master of the middle palace, needs to come.
After thinking about it, the ministers also gave advice to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, Master Qin is right. After the New Year, the surrounding two countries will pay tribute. Isn't it really a problem for a mistress without a master in the harem?"
As soon as these words came out, the ministers rushed to come out.
"Your Majesty, the country cannot live without an heir for a day. It should give birth to an heir as soon as possible to continue the bloodline of the Yu royal family!"
"Your Majesty..."
"Okay, okay! Look at how you all look. How old am I now? I'm still a child! You want me to get a wife. How crazy are you!?" Lu Qing couldn't help but interrupt. The words of a minister.
She really couldn't bear it anymore. She was not even an adult yet. If she was asked to get a wife, she wouldn't do it!
Hearing this, the ministers were all stunned.
What did your Majesty say? ?
He is still young!
The ministers' mouths twitched wildly.
Most of the men from the families here have already started to indulge in pornography at Your Majesty's age, and they can be considered real men. Your Majesty actually said that he was still young, so he wouldn't even think about that?
This is the question from the heart of the ministers.
