After rebirth, I became the white moonlight of the downcast son

Chapter 116 Who is happy and who is worried?

Three days later, the money and food were ready, and the relief personnel were confirmed.

Zhou Changbai was the chief disaster relief officer, and he was accompanied by officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs in charge of money and food, as well as officials from various ministries coordinating with him, as well as several new officials with experience.

The general responsible for accompanying the escort is... Huang Houde.

Huang Houde was also a wonderful man. He knew clearly that the disaster relief officials had designated Zhou Changbai as the chief official and that all personnel were at his disposal, but he still took the initiative to escort him.

I don't know if he is too arrogant and thinks that the Zhou family will not bear his grudge, or if he has some ulterior motive. In short, it is very confusing to the courtiers.

And the most puzzling thing is that the emperor was right. He did it without even thinking about it.

In fact, the emperor was originally thinking about how to ask the Martial Arts Department to recommend someone, but Huang Houde asked for it in public, and the Martial Arts Department and other generals did not move, so he decided directly.

Although it was caused by anger in the heart, disaster relief is a major matter and cannot make any mistakes.

Therefore, after agreeing to Huang Houde's request, he also issued an explicit edict in the palace. During the disaster relief process, if anyone dared to disobey the instructions, regardless of the reason, Zhou Changbai could kill them first and then report them.

As soon as this was announced, the whole court was in an uproar.

Some are happy and some are sad.

There were also people sighing and waiting to see the fun.

Although the emperor had issued an explicit decree, the soldiers brought out by Huang Houde must be his direct descendants, and Zhou Changbai may not be able to command them. Of course, the imperial envoy's guards must take orders from Zhou Changbai.

Therefore, the civil servants who were providing disaster relief were at odds with the military commanders who were accompanying them, and they collided along the way, which created a lot of excitement.

Zhou Changbai was also deeply afraid that Huang Houde would not listen to his advice and that he would not be able to control the soldiers despite the imperial edict.

Once the holy order was given, he could no longer change it, so he selected the Imperial Guards himself with eyes wide open, and he chose them very carefully. Almost all of the guards came from the Martial Arts Department.

And almost everyone has the ability to stop ten with one, and they are all loyal and loyal people serving the country.

And He Beiting also took the opportunity to put a few people beside him to make sure everything was safe.

Even so, Zhou Sining was still worried.

With this clear decree, no matter what happens, all the responsibility will be on her father. Whether he is being framed by others or being secretly profited by, her father will not be able to escape the consequences of negligence and neglect of duty.

If you commit a crime, you will be labeled as incompetent.

The greater the authority, the greater the responsibility.

In Zhou Sining's opinion, it was not a good thing for the emperor to delegate such great power.

What's more, there is also Huang Houde who may cause trouble at any time along the way.

Although Huang Houde was a military commander, judging from the injury of the fifth prince, he was not a reckless man. In that incident, almost everyone who provoked a fight in the court meeting was punished. Only he retreated bravely after causing the fire. The two had nothing to do with each other.

Avoided punishment.

He even lived his life as a little transparent. If he hadn't taken the initiative to ask for help this time, people would have forgotten that there was such a person in the court.

With all necessary preparations in place and money and food in place, the day for disaster relief to leave Beijing was easily decided.

Zhou Family, Jinyuan.

"Are you going to Yicheng to provide disaster relief? You will leave Beijing on August 12th, which is tomorrow?" Mrs. Su burst into tears after hearing Zhou Changbai's words.

"The last time I left Beijing to investigate the drought situation, I left for several months. I have only been back for a few days. Why do you have to leave Beijing again? You are such a good official in the capital. You are out here all year round. Is there no one in the court now?

Why can't I just instigate you alone..."

Zhou Changbai took out his handkerchief and gently wiped Su's tears while saying, "It was not someone else who instigated me, but I took the initiative to ask for help. The Yihe River burst its embankment and flooded dozens of villages and towns. Thousands of people were displaced and had no food to eat."

They are naked and naked. Water and fire are merciless. If we, the officials of the central government who eat the people's taxes and taxes, are also cold-blooded, wouldn't they be too pitiful..."

"Besides, Yicheng is not far from Liuzhou. I also want to kowtow to my mother-in-law on my return trip. Although I couldn't go on her sixtieth birthday, I have to make up for it..."

Mrs. Su snatched the handkerchief from Zhou Changbai's hand and said while wiping her tears: "I'm used to coaxing me..."

Then he said: "You can't leave two days late. It's the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th. This is a big day for family reunion. Even the third uncle is rushing back day and night. Why do you want to go out?"

run……"

Zhou Changbai sighed: "Why don't I want to spend the festival at home before leaving, but if I stay at home for one more day, the people in Yicheng will be hungry for one more day..."

Mrs. Su threw the veil to Zhou Changbai, got up and walked away.

"Madam, Madam..." Zhou Changbai chased after her, calling Madam repeatedly.

"Why are you following me? I'm going to pack your bags for you. You have to leave tomorrow. If I don't help you prepare a change of clothes now, you will have to wear official robes for several months."

"My wife is so kind. I am so lucky to have you as my husband..."

"She's always good at coaxing me..." Mrs. Su rolled her eyes at Zhou Changbai. She wasn't making trouble unreasonably, she just felt sorry for him. When she came back from a business trip, she was dark and thin, and she didn't know how much she ate out.

suffering.

"I don't dare, I mean it from the bottom of my heart. My wife and I will go and clean it up together." Zhou Changbai naturally reached over and put Su's whole hand into his palm, and turned to grin at Su.

.

Seeing this smile, Su felt both funny and sad at the same time.

Su is Zhou Changbai's chosen daughter-in-law, and the couple is extremely loving.

Six years after their wedding, Su gave birth to Zhou Yanqing. During this period, Zhou Changbai neither entertained the thought of taking a concubine nor had any romance with her.

There was a time when Yu was jealous, hated and envious.

Because of Su's years of infertility, Mr. Tuesday's concubine Mrs. Chen initially targeted Zhou Changbai. She drank half a bowl of love potion and then went to block Zhou Changbai. Unfortunately, Mr. Zhou didn't take the bait and avoided it while watching from a distance.

Not to mention that it was done, she couldn't even touch half of the clothes, so she turned around to look for Mr. Tuesday to vent her anger.

It was also because of this that in those early years, whenever Mr. Yu met Mr. Su, his nose was not the same as his face, as if the second wife's concubine was forced into her by Mr. Su.

Later, when we found out the cause and effect, the relationship gradually eased.

In the Jin Courtyard, Mr. Zhou and Mr. and Mrs. Su were packing their bags affectionately, but in the Chunwu Courtyard, it was quiet and somewhat depressing.

Banxia touched the honeysuckle and licked her lips in the direction of Zhou Sining. The meaning was self-evident. How long had the girl been sitting there in a daze? It must have been more than an hour. Was she at odds with her uncle? Or was she still thinking about it?

What kind of snack?

Lonicera rolled her eyes at Banxia and turned her head aside in disgust.

Can't the girl be thinking about something? Does it have to be related to her uncle? Apart from snacks, what else is in Ban Xia's mind?

"What are you thinking about? You're so focused that you didn't even notice that I've been here for a long time."

Listening to this voice and looking at this figure, Lonicera breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, she was really grateful for her uncle's appearance.
