"Dear officials, I have recently read many memorials about the Jiangnan flood. The Jiangnan flood is getting worse by the day. Especially Qingzhou and Jiangzhou, they have become the most affected areas and are in imminent danger. I am going to send an imperial envoy to help with the disaster. Who is willing to volunteer, or do you have a good candidate to recommend? "Hongyuan Emperor's voice was loud and intimidating.
As soon as he said this, the officials looked at each other and lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
Disaster relief was not a good thing. Not only was it very difficult, but they might also have to pay a large sum of money. In short, it was a thankless task, so no one was willing to go.
Hongyuan Emperor glanced at the crowd. Was no one willing to go?
He raised his voice. "Is anyone willing to go?"
Everyone lowered their heads. The officials were all frowning. They wished they could hide in the back and hide in the ground. None of them were willing to suffer this pain.
If they did not do a good job, they might be demoted or even beheaded.
Chu Xuanchen glanced at the crowd coldly. He knew that these people were afraid of death, which was why they did not stand up for him at the first moment.
Now that he tried, he would know who was a talent and who was a cowardly mediocre person.
Prince Xian, who was standing next to him, also coldly glanced at the crowd and observed them.
He was willing to help with the disaster because he needed to make a name for himself. However, he did not act rashly. He wanted to observe the situation first.
Chu Xuanchen saw that no one moved, so he lowered his eyes and prepared to go forward.
Suddenly, Su Ming's voice sounded. "Your Majesty, His Highness The Emperor of Li has always been sympathetic to the people. He is brave and resourceful. This official thinks that he is very suitable for the disaster relief."
"This official also thinks that His Highness The Emperor of Li is skilled and skilled. He is the most suitable candidate," The Emperor of Rui said in a strange tone.
"You all recommend The Emperor of Li? The Emperor of Li, do you want to share my burden? "Hongyuan Emperor asked.
"This subject is willing." Chu Xuanchen stepped forward. He was full of righteousness and awe-inspiring righteousness.
"Your Majesty, I feel that His Highness The Emperor of Li is in charge of the military camp. At this time, it's not appropriate for him to leave the imperial city. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to send him to control the flood. I believe that His Highness, Prince Xian, is the best candidate to control the flood. Firstly, he was inexperienced and needed experience. Secondly, he was unparalleled in his intelligence. I think it's best to send him to help with the disaster, "Magistrate Zhang stood out and said.
He said this because he was afraid that after Chu Xuanchen left the Imperial City, he would lose his military power.
He was also afraid that something would happen to him outside, or that he would be infected by the plague. Once something happened to him, the previous emperor's bloodline would be finished.
Prince Xian's men wanted to push The Emperor of Li out to suffer, so of course he would push Prince Xian out.
Chu Xuanchen glanced at Magistrate Zhang and gave him a look that said, "Don't worry." Magistrate Zhang retreated.
After Magistrate Zhang finished speaking, Tian Zhang also said, "Your Majesty, I also think that Prince Xian is more suitable than The Emperor of Li to help with the flood."
Hongyuan Emperor was taken aback. They were all pushing the enemy's men?
Disaster relief was a thankless task, but if it was done well, it would easily increase his prestige and win the hearts of the people.
If he wanted to support Prince Xian, he naturally had to build up his reputation.
With that thought in mind, he said, "Prince Xian, are you willing to help with the flood?"
"For the sake of the people, it's my duty to do so." Prince Xian stepped forward. He was also full of righteousness.
Hongyuan Emperor nodded repeatedly.
However, he felt that it was too much for Prince Xian to help with the flood alone.
He knew Chu Xuanchen's abilities. Why didn't he let Chu Xuanchen and Prince Xian go together? He could let Chu Xuanchen do the hard work and give the credit to Prince Xian in the end?
