"Zong, Zongren Mansion?"
The little eunuch was slapped to the ground. After hearing these three words, he couldn't help but tremble.
In this harem, who is not afraid of the clan mansion?
All the concubines also lowered their heads and did not dare to speak again.
"Xiao Chenzi, you did a good job."
Concubine Shu raised her red lips and glanced at Xiao Chen with admiration. She did not get the advantage of this little slave last night in vain.
At this moment, a voice came from the inner hall, "Your Majesty, look at how lively it is outside..."
Hearing this familiar voice, the concubines around them couldn't help but lower their heads a little. Even Concubine Shu narrowed her eyes and her pretty face was solemn.
Xiao Chen also raised his eyes and glanced forward, his eyes instantly fixed on the man sandwiched between the two women.
His face was thin, as if he was cutting with a knife, and his eyes were deep, making it impossible to guess his inner thoughts.
That golden dragon robe shows off the power of Heaven!
All the concubines bowed and saluted, "Concubine, I have met Your Majesty! I have met the Queen, Concubine Rong!"
Xiao Chen hurriedly lowered his head, but his eyes were still quietly sizing up His Majesty, and he thought treacherously in his heart, "Is this the Lord of Chu, Emperor Tianwu, Chu Yanwu? No wonder he has three thousand beauties in the harem, but let him The concubines stay alone in the empty boudoir, this is because of kidney deficiency..."
As a good young man who grew up under the red flag, Xiao Chen didn't have much respect for an emperor in his heart.
Chu Yanwu raised his hand slightly and said in a gentle tone, "Everyone, get up."
"Yes! Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Everyone responded and stood respectfully on both sides.
Today, in the Kunning Palace, the only three people who are qualified to sit down are Chu Yanwu, the Queen, and Concubine Shu. However, Concubine Rong is favored, so she naturally has a place to sit down.
After a few people sat down, Chu Yanwu's eyes fell on Concubine Shu, and he said in a calm tone: "I didn't expect Concubine Shu to be here today, but I was a little surprised."
Just as Concubine Shu was about to speak, a concubine below spoke first: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu is different from us. She came here today to offer advice to Your Majesty."
"Oh? Give me some advice?"
Chu Yanwu turned to look at Concubine Rong and said with a chuckle: "My dear concubine, I didn't expect that besides you, there would be someone in this harem who would be willing to share my worries. That's fine... then I'll see who is better between the two of you."
As soon as these words came out, the pretty faces of Concubine Shu and Concubine Rong changed slightly, and they looked at each other, with their eyes facing each other, as if there were sparks shooting out.
Concubine Shu clenched her jade hands slightly and cursed in her heart, "This coquettish fox really refuses to miss any opportunity to please His Majesty."
The Queen sat aside with a smile, her red lips slightly parted, "The two sisters must have made full preparations. Your Majesty, which sister do you want to listen to first?"
Xiao Chen listened to their conversation below and couldn't help but feel frightened. Three women were acting in a drama. This group of women...
This is war!
Chu Yanwu didn't hesitate much and made his choice directly, "Let my concubine come first."
As soon as the words fell, Concubine Rong smiled proudly at Concubine Shu, and then said: "Your Majesty, I believe that there are two strategies for this disaster relief!"
"Well, let's hear it."
Chu Yanwu picked up the tea that the queen had brewed for him and took a slow sip.
Concubine Rong stood up and said confidently: "First of all, the cause of this disaster is the burst of the embankment. If you want to alleviate the disaster, the first solution is to drain the water and mend the embankment! As long as the gap in the embankment is filled, the flood will It’s like water without roots, it will disappear on its own in a short time.”
Hearing this, Chu Yanwu slowly put down the tea cup, his expression became much more serious, "Continue, what's next?"
Today was his day of rest. He only regarded it as a means to win favors and didn't care about the advice given to the concubines in the harem.
But what Concubine Rong said just now made him feel certain feasibility!
Sensing the change in Chu Yanwu's attitude, the concubines also behaved differently.
The queen's slow and steady movements of making tea froze, while Concubine Shu frowned.
It was clear to both of them.
If Concubine Rong's advice today is approved by His Majesty, she will definitely be more favored in the future. This is not good news for them.
But Concubine Rong was shocked. She held Chu Yanwu's hand and said in a soft voice, "The second thing is to appease the victims caused by the flood."
"This is natural, but this disaster... has resulted in hundreds of thousands of refugees. The food of our country in Dachu still needs to be supplied to the soldiers on the border to prevent the invasion of Liang and barbarian countries. How can we get food to appease the people? "
Chu Yanwu asked in a deep voice, this is also the most critical and core issue of this disaster relief.
Without money and food, no matter how good the disaster relief method is, it will be in vain!
Concubine Rong smiled lightly and said, "Your Majesty, just because the imperial court does not have food, it does not mean that others do not have it. I have contacted my father and asked him to lobby the grain merchants in the north to transport food to the south for disaster relief!"
Chu Yanwu's eyes suddenly lit up, "Is this true?!"
"Of course I don't dare to deceive Your Majesty..."
Concubine Rong smiled, turned around and glanced provocatively at the Queen and Concubine Shu, as if to declare her victory.
The faces of the Queen and Concubine Shu turned ugly indeed.
The two knew the details of Concubine Rong. Her natal family was the Wang family, one of the top wealthy families in the north, and owned countless fertile fields.
If the Wang family takes action, it will be difficult for them to compete with Concubine Rong on disaster relief.
Chu Yanwu laughed loudly and took Concubine Rong into his arms, "Hahaha! She is indeed my beloved concubine. It is my great fortune to have Concubine Rong, and it is the great fortune of Chu!"
"Your Majesty, Concubine Shu also has some good disaster relief measures to offer..."
At this time, the queen gave a reminder.
Chu Yanwu waved his hand and said casually, "No need, I just have Concubine Rong's good advice!"
While speaking, Chu Yanwu lowered his head and kissed Concubine Rong on the face.
"Your Majesty, I hate...there are so many people..."
Concubine Rong seemed to be resisting, but in fact she said something arrogantly.
Creak, creak, creak!
Concubine Shu clenched her fists tightly, stood up and prepared to leave Kunning Palace. She was willing to continue to be embarrassed here!
However, just when she was about to leave, Xiao Chen stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu thinks that Concubine Rong's disaster relief plan... is nonsense!"
boom!
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
After Xiao Chen finished speaking, the entire Kunning Palace fell silent for an instant.
So the concubines looked at the little eunuch who didn't know whether to live or die with dull eyes.
At this time, are you saying that Concubine Rong’s disaster relief measures have harmed the country and the people?
Don’t want to live anymore?
The smile on Chu Yanwu's face faded in an instant, and a killing intent flashed in his eyes.
"Xiao Tatsuko! Shut up!"
Concubine Shu's face turned livid, and she immediately scolded, "You're talking nonsense, but you should slap it yourself!"
She saw the look in Chu Yanwu's eyes and wanted to save Xiao Chen's life as much as possible.
But Xiao Chen seemed not to understand, and stood up straight and said: "Not only that, if Your Majesty adopts Concubine Rong's strategy, I'm afraid it will harm the country and the people!"
"Shake the foundation of our great Chu country!"
