    ?

    Moreover, once there is a problem with the disaster relief, let Chu Xuanchen take the responsibility.

    If the disaster relief is successful, let the virtuous king share his reputation.

    He was also afraid that Chu Xuanchen would form a party for personal gain and build up power on the way, so he sent a virtuous king to supervise him.

    Thinking of this, he said: "Since King Li and King Xian are willing to serve the country, I have an idea. I appoint you two as imperial envoys to go to the south of the Yangtze River for disaster relief. However, because King Li has traveled abroad many times  Experience, I will order you to be the chief envoy of the imperial envoy, and the virtuous king to be the deputy envoy of the imperial envoy to assist you in disaster relief. When the time comes, you will perform your duties and help each other. I will give each of you a Shangfang sword to show that you are here in person. No matter  Princes, marquises, or civil and military ministers, who dare to disrespect, can be killed first and then played."

    "I obey the order." Chu Xuanchen and the virtuous king stepped forward together to accept the order.

    "Okay, since the two of you are imperial envoys, have you thought of a good way to relieve the disaster?" Emperor Hongyuan asked.

    The virtuous king took the lead in saying: "Your Majesty, I think that. First, the emperor should continue to sincerely pray to heaven for the end of the floods; second, to spread benevolent government, amnesty the world, and release some ordinary criminals, so as to demonstrate the emperor's benevolence;  The imperial court takes the lead in disaster relief, and then guides the wealthy gentry and wealthy households to donate, and the government and the people work together to provide relief.¡±

    "Well, King Xian's method is feasible." Emperor Hongyuan nodded, "What about King Li, what good strategy do you have?"

    Chu Xuanchen thought for a while, and said: "I believe that the first thing to do in disaster relief is to stabilize people's hearts and feed the people before we can proceed with the follow-up matters. One is to distribute money and food; the other is to exempt the people in the disaster area from corvee and taxes; the third is to encourage the victims to save themselves.  Fourth, we must organize the victims to build water conservancy projects to prevent further floods; fifth, we must stabilize food prices; sixth, we must pay attention to post-disaster epidemic prevention;  Full belly."

    Upon hearing this, Taifu Han immediately gave Chu Xuanchen an appreciative glance.

    His methods are all very practical methods, all of which are good strategies for the country and the people.

    King Xian's is not bad, but it's too superficial, pays too much attention to the reputation of the royal family, pays too much attention to winning the hearts of the people, and is not as practical as His Highness Li Wang.

    After hearing what Chu Xuanchen said, Emperor Hongyuan couldn't help but nodded.

    This Chu Xuanchen is really a talent, but it is a pity that he is the son of the first emperor.

    He said: "Okay, I think you two have good disaster relief strategies. This time, the imperial court will take the lead in allocating relief funds. Yun Xiang, do the math, how much relief money will you need for this trip?"  Emperor Hongyuan asked.

    Yun Qing thought for a while, and said: "Back to the emperor, the minister and the Minister of the Household Department have calculated that the floods in the south of the Yangtze River are extremely serious, and I am afraid that at least two million taels of silver will be needed."

    "Two million taels!" The ministers below shook their heads when they heard the number.

    This is too much. Could it be that all the money comes from the treasury?

    I'm afraid the emperor is unwilling.

    However, they also know that the royal disaster relief has always been mostly for show.

    The world is so big, the treasury is not full, the folks are short of food, and disasters are everywhere, how can the emperor manage it.

    The most important thing for the common people is self-reliance, and disaster relief is only a means for the emperor to stabilize the people's hearts.

    As for whether the rescue will be successful or not, it still depends on the people themselves.

    "Two million taels of silver?" Emperor Hongyuan asked again.

    "Two million taels is an underestimate. If we really want to treat all the victims, two million taels is not enough." Yun Qing added.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
