After the court, Su Yunqi, the left prime minister, called several officials from the Ministry of Revenue to the prime minister's house.
Thinking of the scene at the court, Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, and several ministers stood in front of the left prime minister, all of them calm and silent.
Today's left prime minister is no longer the left prime minister of the past. Perhaps it is because over the years, he has deeply felt that the post of prime minister is not easy to hold, and thinking about the appearance of his eldest daughter Su Wanyue in the harem, Su Yunqi over the years His personality became much more irritable.
The emperor was not personally involved in the government, and all matters in the court were left to the two prime ministers.
These civil and military officials were not too afraid of the right prime minister Yang Youcheng, but they were afraid of the left prime minister Su Yunqi.
Because of this, the court in recent years has not been as lively as it was in the past. The morning court was like making love to a cow, oh, no, it was playing the piano.
Left Prime Minister Su Yunqi took a sip of tea and sighed. Then he raised his head and looked at the officials from the Ministry of Revenue in front of him.
Seeing that they hadn't said a word for a long time, Su Yunqi couldn't wait anymore and asked: "How to solve the locust plague?"
When asked, no official answered.
Seeing that no one answered, Su Yunqi, the left prime minister, muttered to himself: "The last time this locust plague came was more than ten years ago, right? I remember that the locust plague was solved with money and food. Right? Really, how many are there? "
"Yes, yes." After Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, responded, the other minor officials followed suit.
"Since it is, then use the money quickly! Use food to provide disaster relief and appease the people's livelihood!" Su Yunqi roared.
Having said that, the officials in the Ministry of Revenue and the left prime minister Su Yunqi know best how much money and food there is in the national treasury.
But this... When the left prime minister asked this question, several officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs couldn't answer it. How much money and grain was there? He couldn't possibly not know, right?
Seeing that every official was silent and choosing silence, Left Prime Minister Su Yunqi shouted: "Why don't you speak? Are they all mute?!"
Seeing them still saying nothing, Su Yunqi didn't want to see this face anymore. He picked up the teacup on the table with both hands, took a sip of tea, sat on the chair, and looked at the table. Looking at the wooden table with memorials and documents.
Although the Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng was on the side, Su Yunqi refused to leave the problem to him. Although he was his benefactor, since the two of them took the position of prime minister, the Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng handled more official affairs.
Thinking of this, Left Prime Minister Su Yunqi was reluctant to hand over the problem to him. Even if it was handed over to him, he might not be able to come up with a good solution.
Looking at the people in front of him without saying a word, Su Yunqi said angrily: "Since you don't want to talk, there is no need to say anything from now on. Those who want to retire and return to their hometowns in advance can do so. Those who don't want to can do so from now on." Come on, don’t say this anymore. Go home, get some thread, and sew it up.” After saying that, Su Yunqi looked at Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, and for the sake of his in-laws, he said: “Starting tomorrow , you should think of a way at home, and then come back to deal with official business when you come up with a way, and leave those things of yours to others to do."
After listening to the words of Su Yunqi, the left prime minister, Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, raised his head with a blank look on his face and looked at Su Yunqi with his eyes.
Seeing the appearance of Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Hubu, Su Yun stood up and said: "Let's all go back. Except for the Minister of Hubu, the others
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The rest of the people are not allowed to speak. Every word they say will be slapped on the wall. If you don't like talking so much, then don't say anything. Minister of Hubu, please go back. From today on, you will find a way in your house. You don’t need to come to this Hubu. I will find a few people to help you deal with it. "
Thinking that he could at least speak, Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, agreed: "Okay, I will resign." After saying that, he walked out.
The other officials bowed and walked out without daring to say anything.
Seeing the sad look of his benefactor Su Yunqi, Right Minister Yang Youcheng asked: "My benefactor, this locust plague is so fierce. How was the last locust plague solved?"
Hearing the question from Right Minister Yang Youcheng, Su Yunqi looked at him and said: "You don't have to think too much about these things, just handle the official business at hand. I will take care of these things."
Seeing that his benefactor did not let him think of anything, and only wanted to handle the official duties in his hands, Yang Youcheng had no choice but to lower his head and review the memorial in his hand.
If you want to think of a way to control the locust plague, it seems that there is really no way. After all, the current national power no longer has the ability to deal with the locust plague.
Left Prime Minister Su Yunqi was like fishing every day. After the officials left, Su Yunqi sat on the chair without saying a word, staring blankly at the memorials and some documents piled on the table.
Every time when left prime minister Su Yunqi looked at him like this, the petty officials in the prime minister's palace would pretend they hadn't seen him. As for right prime minister Yang Youcheng, every time when left prime minister Su Yunqi was in a daze, he would finish reviewing the memorials in his hands. Finally, he helped him review the memorials in front of him.
Therefore, in this court, everyone envies Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng, but no one envies Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng.
As soon as Governor Du Antong's plan came out, the imperial court immediately wrote letters to the governors of the seven provinces in Da Mo.
The most difficult thing is for the governor of Guangnan Province. Just a few days after taking office, he has to continue to solve the troublesome people in this place.
At this time, in the governor's office in the capital city of Guangnan Province, the newly appointed governor Feng Zishi was thinking about how to suppress the unruly people.
Governor Feng Zishi is now in his thirties, with a head full of black hair, a yellow face, a very thick beard, and a figure that can be called a tiger's back and a bear's waist.
At this time, the soldier with a long knife on his waist held a newly arrived letter tightly in both hands and hurried to where Governor Feng Zishi was.
"Governor! Governor!"
With the sound of hurried footsteps and the hurried shouting, the soldier ran in.
Seeing the panic of his people, Governor Feng Zishi asked: "What's wrong? But those unruly people are coming?"
The soldier shook his head, stepped forward, handed the letter he was holding tightly to Governor Feng Zishi, and said, "This is a letter sent from the imperial court."
After taking the letter from Xiao Bing, Governor Feng Zishi called in a hurry, and then read it nervously and quickly.
After reading it, Governor Feng Zishi put the letter aside. Seeing the soldiers on the side who had not left yet, Governor Feng Zishi asked: "Where are those unruly people making trouble now?"
"Back to the governor, in Xijia Mansion and Shuiyi Mansion." Xiaobing replied.
After hearing this, Governor Feng Zizhi said to himself: "Xijia Mansion, Shuiyi Mansion. If they are ambitious, the next step will be to call Nanning Mansion. If they want to use
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
If the siege method reaches Nanning Mansion, the imperial court's plan will still have to be implemented. "
"Governor, what does this letter say?" the soldier on the side asked with interest.
"The imperial court asked me, the governor, and the governors of other provinces to gather strength and suppress those unruly people." Governor Feng Zishi replied. Looking at the soldiers on the side without saying a word, Governor Feng Zishi gave orders. : "You go down and take the brothers to practice more. You can't disappoint the high expectations of the court."
"Yes!" After responding, the soldier hurriedly got ready.
Days passed by, and the other governors had already led their troops towards Nanning Mansion in Guangnan Province.
As for Chunxu and the others, in the past few days, they have easily captured Xijia Prefecture and Shuiyi Prefecture, and are now attacking the counties under the jurisdiction of Liangcheng Prefecture and Dongjia Prefecture.
In order to ensure safety, the only direction that the governor teams coming from other places to support were through the counties of Liangcheng Prefecture and Dongjia Prefecture that had not yet been attacked.
Those captured county towns are now all Chunxu's people, and if the soldiers from the imperial court pass by, they will definitely come to fight.
Of course, this is really the case.
Two armies of governors from Nanyue Province and Mozhang Province stopped at the border of Yishi Prefecture.
The governor of South Vietnam and the governor of Zhu Mo Zhang looked about the same age. There were a lot of white hair covering the black hair.
By coincidence, these two teams met just after they arrived at the border of Yi Shifu in Guangnan Province, and the governors of the two teams still had the same idea.
The governor of Mozhang was named Tao and his given name was Jianbai; the governor of Nanyue was named Du and his given name was Xingsi.
As soon as they met, the two started chatting.
"Governor Du, what a coincidence." Tao Jianbai, the governor of Mozhang Province, smiled broadly.
Seeing Governor Tao's appearance, Governor Du of Nanyue Province smiled broadly and said, "It's true."
"Governor Du, isn't the order from the court asking us to gather from Liangcheng Mansion and Dongjia Mansion to Nanning Mansion? Why did we end up here and take the wrong road?" Governor Tao asked knowingly.
"Why, Governor Tao also went the wrong way?" Governor Du said with a smile.
"Of course not, I'm thinking about how powerful these unscrupulous people can be. If they want us to go from Liangcheng Mansion and Dongjia Mansion, wouldn't it be closer from here? Besides, I have been doing this for more than ten years. Soldier, after being a governor for almost twenty years, how can he not be able to defeat this unruly people?" Governor Tao said with confidence.
Upon hearing this, Governor Du of Nanyue Province laughed: "I mean the same thing as you. These unruly people are just ordinary people. We soldiers and governors can still be afraid of them."
"Governor Du's words make sense. Since we are so destined to meet here, how about we work together to suppress this group of unruly people?" Governor Tao asked.
"Okay!" Governor Du was very confident and continued: "Why don't we each attack a city and see which one of us takes back more. If you take less, how about treating me and myself to a banquet? If it's you If you have more, I'll treat you and your people to a banquet."
"Okay! Since Governor Du said this, it's interesting. It's settled."
"It's hard to chase a horse!"
Afterwards, Governor Du of Nanyue Province and Governor Tao of Mozhang Province led their people towards the city of Yishi Prefecture.
