Chapter 1239 Snow

Su Jin looked up at the gloomy sky and the heavy snow that fluttered in the sky like a feather, and said softly to Qin Lang, "Tell me, when will the snow stop?"

Qin Lang felt a little worried when he heard what she said. He suppressed the smile on his face and frowned: "It's hard to say, at least it won't stop until tonight."

Su Jin sighed in his heart: "You—are you sure?"

"Silly Ajin," Qin Lang laughed, holding her hand and said softly, "Have you forgotten? When I was in Wushui City, the weather was similar. I led the troops to fight an ambush and learned a little from the local guide. Son, although I can't see it accurately, I can see a little bit more or less."

Su Jin suddenly realized, thinking of Wushui City, he was inexplicably nostalgic, and nodded with a chuckle: "Yes, I almost forgot."

said and raised his eyebrows: "However, if the snow continues for a whole day, the capital and surrounding villages and towns will be severely affected. If the snow does not stop tonight, it will be even more difficult to say."

Qin Lang's eyes also became serious, nodded and sighed: "If this is the case, this is a natural disaster, and what you and I can do is limited."

The two of them looked at each other, and they both remembered when they were in Xiaohe Village, that year, that winter when they had no food and lived in a dilapidated house.

Those days were simply too hard, too difficult, and too profound, so that Su Jin can still remember everything clearly even when he thinks about it now.

Today, the snow is bigger and fiercer than it was at the time.

I don’t know how many people will suffer.

But now that Qin Lang is the Prince of the East Palace, he is constrained in his actions, and it is not easy to do this disaster relief work.

It is inconvenient to even mention it to Yan and Di.

Yanhe Di was incompetent, but he was high-spirited and suspicious, not to mention that he always feared Qin Lang.

Qin Lang's crown prince was still reluctantly given to him. If he went to the palace to tell him about disaster relief, Emperor Yanhe might be so annoyed.

If he was just annoyed, it would be fine. What he was most afraid of was that he simply rejected Qin Lang's proposal when he was annoyed, wouldn't it be worse?

Don't think too highly of Yan Hedi's IQ, he is likely to be able to do such a thing.

For a while, the hearts of the couple were a little heavy.

For one thing, they have personally experienced this kind of day, and it was really very difficult.

Secondly, although Qin Lang did not dare to say how ambitious he was, but the so-called seeking his government in his position, he is now the prince of Daqing, and subconsciously, he naturally thinks a little more for the people of Daqing.

"The Governor of Shuntian and the Ministry of Households will definitely issue a petition. Let's get ready. It's always possible to help out at that time." Qin Lang smiled at Su Jin.

Su Jin smiled and nodded, "um", and said, "I'll send someone to discuss with Sister Xu! Please send someone to buy food and cloth today. From the medical school, I will also send someone to make a call. Greetings. You can send a few more capable horses out of the city to go to the big cities farther away, inform the shops there, and secretly prepare food and cloth."

Nearby towns are bound to suffer disasters. To prepare, you have to go farther, and let the farther places prepare, and then there will be time to spare.

If this kind of thing were done in the house of another noble minister, where would a woman have the chance to intervene?

Qin Lang and Su Jin, one didn't care what they said, and the other didn't have any special reaction when they heard it. Qin Lang nodded in response, and after thinking about it, he couldn't help but chuckle: "A Jin, you forgot to count the Lu family. , by the way, send a message to the Lu family, and let the Lu family join in, maybe in the spring after the new year, the Lu family will be able to return to the capital again."

If the Lu family was successful in the disaster relief and wanted to return to the capital, there would be no problem.

Such a trivial matter, Yan Hedi would not take it seriously at all.

And once the Lu family came back, it would be of great benefit to Qin Lang and Su Jin.

Su Jin's eyes lit up, smiled brightly, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "You are right, just do it like this!"

One after another instruction was secretly passed out from the East Palace, and spread to the designated places.

That night, the snow did not stop.

In the afternoon, it was a little smaller. It was so small that it could only be regarded as a drizzle compared to the heavy snow that blocked the view. I thought it would gradually become smaller and eventually stop.

Who knows, less than an hour later, they started to grow bigger and bigger, and there was no trend of getting smaller.

Before going to bed at night, the two of them glanced outside, and the snow was still rising.

Early the next day, the snow was a little smaller, but there were still sporadic spots, and the sky was still gloomy and gray, the cold wind was howling, and there was no trace of sunshine. No one could guarantee how the weather would change these days?

It would be even more miserable if there was another heavy snowfall when the snow on the ground had melted half and half.

Rao is so, it is enough to make the people complain, the atmosphere of the court is heavy, and they are worried.

In the two nights and a day of heavy snow, I don’t know how many people, livestock and poultry died from frostbite, how many buildings, houses and trees were crushed and collapsed. The entire capital, as well as surrounding towns and villages, all complained.

The governor of Shuntian received countless urgent reports, and he didn't have time to read it carefully. He ordered the masters to sort them out, and he, together with the minister of household and two servants, rushed to the palace to face the saint.

This topic was the most talked about in the morning today.

Yanhe Di had a worried and worried expression on his face, but in fact his heart was even more irritable than that.

He just took over the throne, and it hasn't even passed the first New Year, but such a bad thing happened in Beijing, which is really bad.

Wouldn’t it be even more annoying if someone seized the opportunity and slandered him again, saying that his immorality caused God to punish him?

"It's about the people, you quickly arrange disaster relief matters, don't be afraid to spend money, how much you need to get from the Treasury Department, in any case, let the people have a happy New Year."

"Listen, I don't allow any accidents to happen. If this arouses public anger, I'm the only one who asks you!"

Yan and Emperor were both fierce.

The left servant of the Ministry of Housing is an impatient person. When he heard this, he became anxious. He said to the emperor that it was easy for you to say, but where is the money in the treasury? The death of the first emperor, the enthronement of the new emperor, and the previous attack on Nanfan, the money has basically bottomed out.

At least some should be reserved for spring ploughing in the coming year, dredging the river, and preparing for the time when the green and yellow are not connected, right?

This sum of money that is completely out of the budget, according to experience, at least it will cost 300,000 to 500,000 taels. Where to go?

The Minister of the Ministry of Tombs just opened his mouth to speak when he was stared at by the Minister of the Ministry of Tombs and stopped his wink.

The emperor is not the first emperor, his temperament is different from that of the first emperor.

Those who complain can be complained to the late emperor, but they must not be complained to the current emperor, it will anger him.
