At this time, Emperor Hongyuan suddenly felt that his head hurt, and he hugged his head in discomfort.
Not only did he feel a headache, but his heart was also itchy.
He immediately said: "Okay! Concubine Xue, you go back first!"
Having said that, he looked at Eunuch Xu, and ordered: "Eunuch Xu, my head hurts very much now, go find Chen Changqing and get the Longevity Pill, quickly!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Seeing this, Eunuch Xu ran out quickly.
Xue Tianxiang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, do you want my concubine to give you a massage?"
"No need!" Emperor Hongyuan yelled uncomfortably, and was in a bad mood, "I don't need you here, so hurry up and back down!"
Hearing the scolding, Xue Tianxiang was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty, this concubine will retire."
With that said, she quickly stepped back.
As soon as she walked out of Guangming Palace, Xue Tianxiang was full of worry.
Not only was it useless for her to persuade Emperor Hongyuan just now, but she was reprimanded and doubted by Emperor Hongyuan.
The mission failed, it seems that she has to notify Chu Xuanchen immediately so that he can find another way-
Li Wangfu
When Chu Xuanchen was correcting official documents in the study, Mo Li walked in with a letter, "My lord, Concubine Xue has sent you a letter!"
Chu Xuanchen put down the brush, raised his eyebrows lightly, "What did you say in the letter?"
Moli said: "If you say that this mission has failed, the emperor will not listen to Concubine Xue's advice at all, and instead suspects that she was instructed by others."
Chu Xuanchen got up, and said lightly: "It seems that we have to find another way."
Mo Li raised his eyes, "My lord, what can we do?"
Chu Xuanchen pondered: "The emperor only wants to build a mausoleum and build a new palace for Dong Shishi, so he refuses to release money for disaster relief. If the emperor wants to allocate funds for disaster relief, the only way to suspend the construction of the imperial tomb and palace."
"Suspend the construction of the imperial mausoleum? My lord, but the emperor is determined to repair it, and we can't stop him at all. How can we make him stop this idea?" Mo Li asked puzzled.
Chu Xuanchen looked into the distance, and said: "Moli, what will happen if the workers accidentally dig a few springs when building the imperial tomb, and let the groundwater flow back, causing the imperial tomb to be flooded?"
Mo Li's eyes lit up with joy, "My lord, digging a spring in the mausoleum is an ominous omen, and it also means that this place can no longer be used to build the imperial tomb. In this way, don't we have a reason to stop the emperor?"
Chu Xuanchen pursed his lips, "Well, Mo Li, I leave this matter to you."
"Yes, my lord." After Mo Li finished speaking, he withdrew.
Chu Xuanchen looked at the stars in the sky. If these visions were combined with some rumors, it might be possible to prevent Emperor Hongyuan from rebuilding the imperial mausoleum.
In this way, the extra silver can be used for disaster relief-
A few days later, when Chu Xuanchen and Yun Ruoyue were having dinner in a restaurant, they suddenly heard panicked voices from the people outside.
"It's bad! The emperor's mausoleum in the western suburbs was flooded!"
"What? Which imperial mausoleum in the western suburbs?"
"It's the imperial mausoleum that the emperor is building! When I went to deliver wood to the imperial mausoleum, I saw that the entire mausoleum was flooded!"
"Really? The whole mausoleum was flooded. Why?"
"I heard that the workers dug a few springs when they were repairing the mausoleum. As a result, the springs flooded the imperial mausoleum overnight!"
"Hey, this is really bad luck! How could a spring be dug out of such a fine imperial tomb?"
Someone whispered: "I heard that the current emperor refuses to allocate funds for disaster relief. This is God's punishment for him! If he wastes money on the people and extorts money so that everyone can repair the mausoleum, I'm afraid it will come back to him."
"At that time, maybe the emperor will also suffer a bloody disaster. Is this the retribution of the emperor's unwillingness to save the lives of the people and his lack of benevolence?"
"It must be, that is what he deserves!"
Hearing this, Yun Ruoyue was surprised and said: "Xuan Chen, I didn't expect the imperial tomb to be flooded. Emperor Hongyuan was really unlucky. But if this is the case, can he suspend the construction of the tomb? Use the extra money for disaster relief ?¡±
Chu Xuanchen said: "I don't know. With Emperor Hongyuan's temper, it shouldn't be that easy. I'll go into the palace to have a look."
"Well, you go!" Yun Ruoyue said.
She really hoped that Emperor Hongyuan could stop building the mausoleum and use the money to help the people-
Soon, Chu Xuanchen entered the palace and came to Emperor Hongyuan's imperial study.
At this time, Emperor Hongyuan's imperial study room was already full of ministers.??.
At this time, all the ministers surrounded Emperor Hongyuan, telling him about the flooding of the mausoleum.
At this moment, someone saw Chu Xuanchen and hurriedly said, "King Li, you are here too, are you also here for the flooding of the imperial tomb?"
Chu Xuanchen nodded, then walked towards Emperor Hongyuan, saluted and said: "I see the emperor."
Emperor Hongyuan was in a very bad mood now, he waved his hand in boredom, and said, "Xuanchen, you came just in time, do you know about the flooding of the imperial tomb?"
Chu Xuanchen immediately said: "I just heard about it. Your Majesty, this is very good. Why is the imperial tomb flooded?"
"I heard people say that the workers dug a few springs, so they flooded the mausoleum."
Emperor Hongyuan said, puzzled: "It's really strange. When I was selecting the site, I asked the Minister of the Ministry of Industry to conduct a survey. Li Huai said that there is no groundwater under the land in the western suburbs, so I will build the mausoleum here. Why did the groundwater get dug up in the past few years?"
Chu Xuanchen said: "Your Majesty, the current survey methods are limited, and the groundwater is too deep. It is normal that Mr. Li can't survey it. Now that the imperial mausoleum is flooded, we have to quickly find a way to solve this problem."
Emperor Hongyuan said depressedly: "It's all flooded, what else can I think of?"
Some officials said: "Your Majesty, let's try to pump out the water and see if we can continue to build on the original site?"
Chu Xuanchen said: "No, there are springs in the imperial mausoleum, and there are dense dark rivers below, with turbulent water flow. You must not continue to build the mausoleum here. Otherwise, if the mausoleum is flooded in the future, who will be responsible?"
When Emperor Hongyuan heard this, he was horrified.
He didn't want his mausoleum to be flooded.
He immediately said: "Xuan Chen is right, there is a dark river below here, absolutely cannot continue to build the mausoleum here, I will build another one in another place."
When the ministers heard this, they were all horrified.
Li Huai said heartbroken: "Your Majesty, it has taken ten years to build this mausoleum, and it has already cost millions of taels of silver. If it is rebuilt rashly now, the cost will be even greater. Now the national treasury is already empty, and the people all over the world are displaced and hungry. Land, we don¡¯t have the money to help them, if the emperor builds a new tomb, I¡¯m afraid people in the world will find it difficult to accept it, please think twice.¡±
When Emperor Hongyuan heard this, his face turned ashen, "Building the mausoleum for me is a great plan of the country, who dares to criticize it?"
"Your Majesty, it's because you haven't heard the rumors outside" Li Jin whispered.
Emperor Hongyuan swept towards Li Jin sharply, with a black murderous intent in his eyes, "Master Li, what are the rumors outside?" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
