Female Protagonist and Second Male Lead HE

In the new year, the spring is coming, the weather is exceptionally good, and the weather is clear and clear every day. Many nobles in Luojing have invited to go out to enjoy this wonderful spring.

However, some people were happy and some were worried. The officials in charge of agricultural affairs in the central government looked at the sun shining on this day, and their hair was almost pale. There was little snow in the winter last year, and it hasn't rained yet. If this continues, the crops will be hard to grow this year. Farmers are even more worried. Everyone looks at the sky with a sad look on their faces.

Finally, it rained, and it stopped after half a day. When the sun came out, the water vapor quickly evaporated, and the earth was dry again.

"This year... I'm afraid it will be a disaster year..."

The signs of drought in various places have first appeared, and the court has finally begun to pay attention, but there are few effective ways to deal with it. Every few years, there will be such a year of disasters, catastrophes continue to occur, and ordinary people are still suffering.

Liao Tingyan is in the center of the supreme power of this era, surrounded by flowers and flowers, a peaceful and prosperous, folk sufferings are far away from her, if she is an ordinary person who knows everything like everyone else, then she can laugh with this harem Yan Yan Like all the beauties, even if they have troubles, they are only troubles that Miyagi can hold. But she is not. She knows that a drought is coming. She also knows that if this drought is not dealt with properly, many people will die, then the plague will definitely continue to erupt like the original.

So Sima Jiao found that when the spring sun was shining, his concubine was inexplicably worried.

By the beginning of summer, all the meat she had grown before was thinner - only the breast was not thin.

Sima Jiao couldn't stand it anymore, and made a fire in the court with a grumpy expression. He went back and pinched Liao Tingyan's chin and asked, "What are you worried about?"

Liao Tingyan said honestly: "Worry about the drought." It is also worry about the country's subjugation.

Sima Jiao: "So I asked you why you are worried about the drought?" That obviously has nothing to do with her. Sima Jiao couldn't understand this worry, because for him, the world belonged to him, and it was just the same as those treasures in Neikuli that were of no use to look at. Since he was a child, he has never cared about the people, or in other words, has never cared about other people. What is it to him?

He likes Liao Tingyan, and he wants to see Liao Tingyan living carefree and lazily by his side, it is best to be like before. However, she is now worried about the mere drought, which can not help but remind him of the floods that happened before.

She is worried about the country and the people? Sima Jiao keenly felt that this was not the case. She was usually lazy, only so nervous about certain things, as if she was hiding something. This is what really makes Sima Jiao feel unhappy.

I wanted to ask a few questions, but Liao Tingyan was not like those who were scared by him and said everything. Sima Jiao wanted to get angry with her, so she leaned over to act like a baby, hugged and kissed her, and Sima Jiao... stopped getting angry.

The result is getting more and more angry.

"Don't lose weight." Sima Jiao ordered.

Liao Tingyan: "..." This is not something she can control. She looks at it in autumn and winter, and she naturally loses weight in spring and summer. She has said that she will lose weight when summer arrives, not just worrying about drought. , There are also reasons for the weather.

Rain is scarce, and several states have experienced droughts this year, and urgent papers have been reported one by one. Because Liao Tingyan lost weight, Sima Jiao cared about it unconsciously. At any rate, he took the time to watch it, and ordered the officials to go down to build water conservancy projects. Seeing him, the emperor, suddenly became concerned about this matter, the officials underneath looked at each other and acted and were equally concerned about this matter.

Compared with the original, the situation is much better now. However, as the weather gets hotter and the drought lasts longer and longer, the crops planted in the fields finally die because of insufficient irrigation, even if the family is carrying water all day long, and the night is meticulous. Taking care of it cannot withstand the scorching sun in the sky.

The area near Luojing was fine. The most serious place was already thousands of miles away after the summer. Large fields were cracked and weeds could not grow.

"Your Majesty, the disaster in Tuzhou is serious, and we need to try to deal with it as soon as possible. Your majesty asks your Majesty to open the storehouse to release grain and help the victims!" Li Sikong looked solemn and bowed before the queue.

Before Sima Jiao spoke, Du Xiangguo frowned and categorically refused: "No! The granary is prepared for war. How can it be easily used for such things? If foreigners outside the customs take the opportunity to invade, I will be a big army. How come!"

Li Sikong said angrily: "It's impossible for the lives of a state to be lost, and it is no more important than the shadowless war! Today, Tuzhou has insufficient food, and the official warehouse can no longer support it. A small number of areas have even suffered from food for children..."

Du Xiangguo sneered, "It's just a few people who died. Why should Li Sikong be so nervous? I don't think the drought will last long. You don't need to use the granary."

After he said that, he bowed his hand to the superior Sima Jiao and said loudly, "What do you think?"

Sima Jiao has always followed him in everything, and seldom refutes his words. The ministers have long been used to it. Nowadays, the faces of Du Xiangguo are all determined. Li Sikong and other ministers who are anxious for the people of Tuzhou can't help but sink. , Li Sikong even more desperately called your Majesty.

Sima Jiao said with a calm face, silent for a moment, and said: "Open the granary of the land, a place where the disaster is serious, move the people, and wait until the disaster is over, then let them return to their original places."

Unexpectedly, he would make such a decision. Li Sikong suddenly brightened his eyes and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty Shengming!"

Du Xiangguo's expression became stiff, and he took a step forward, "Think twice, your majesty, the granary is..."

"Du Xiangguo." Sima Jiao interrupted him, expressionless, with cold and solitary eyes, "Gu said opening a position."

Du Xiangguo's cheek twitched, and stood back with a dark face, without saying a word.

Sima Jiao ordered Duan Taifu again. Since the death of his second son last year, he has been more low-key in the DPRK, and he almost doesn't care about everything. At this time, Sima focused his attention on him and said: "All disaster relief needs to be assisted by Tai Fu."

There are a large number of nobles, and there are side families in several state capitals. If you want to stabilize the situation, nothing is more convenient than those families that have been rooted in the local for a long time. Sima Jiao's intention is to make Duan Taifu take the lead in controlling the disaster situation in various places, and he also indicated The meaning of relief from major families.

Duan Taifu raised his eyelids to look at this majesty, and then answered yes. He was like Du Xiangguo at this time, and felt very strange about Sima Jiao's unusual behavior.

——The last flood was almost all handled by the Gao Taibao. All the ministers thought that the sinking stone, which was designated as the Water Envoy of the Fourth Grade Capital, was released by your majesty because it had been on the head of the Gao Taibao. Dealing with floods will make up for it, and no one knows that Sima Jiao told him. So this time, all the ministers couldn't help but think more about Sima Jiao's sudden behavior.

His Majesty, who has been ignoring political affairs for many years, suddenly changed his attitude. Was he really because of the disaster, or... Thinking of your Majesty’s public veto of Du Xiangguo, everyone felt that it might not be easy. When did your Majesty take care of the people's suffering? Now this matter, I am afraid that dealing with the drought is false, and it is true if you can't bear it.

Even Du Xiangguo himself thought so.

In the next dynasty, Du Xiangguo returned to his mansion, and he brought in the confidants of the guests to discuss this matter.

"He's getting older now, I'm afraid he won't be able to tolerate me anymore." Du Xiangguo's expression was complicated, a bit resentful, and a little sad. Back then, the first emperor entrusted the young emperor to him, and he also supported the young emperor wholeheartedly, but a person is not a rock, how could it never change. Although he had no intention of rebellion, but after all, because he held heavy power for many years, he had some other thoughts and did some selfish things.

Over the years, despite Sima Jiao’s tyrannical nature, he has never opposed any of his decisions. After a long time, Dou Xiangguo took it for granted. Today, he was suddenly refuted. He was frightened and there was a hint of fear in his heart. .

Is it true that your Majesty is really prepared to deal with him? Before he was obviously not strange, how did he get this kind of thinking?

Hearing his doubts, a client turned his eyes and said, "Your Majesty has indeed changed things. The Prime Minister may wish to think about it. Is your Majesty a little different since the Concubine Liao entered the palace?"

Du Xiangguo: "You mean, your Majesty was bewitched by a woman?"

"Since ancient times, confidantes have caused troubles. Your Majesty is afraid that someone who has the intention to instigate the relationship with the state."

Du Xiangguo's expression was uncertain, snorted, and then remembered another thing, "Sima Jiao insists on opening the granary of Jidi, and the matter over there is likely to be discovered. The current plan is to find a few scapegoats. Solved the matter first."

"Don't worry, Xiangguo will do it all!"

...

Duan's family, Duan Taifu and his eldest son were sitting at the same place drinking tea, and a subordinate came outside to ask for a meeting.

"How, do you know why your Majesty is so abnormal?" Duan Taifu asked.

The voice of the person kneeling down was flat and did not raise his head. "According to the report from the spies in the palace, the reason why your Majesty pays attention to the drought is because of Concubine Liao. Will intervene in this matter to comfort the concubine."

Duan Taifu: "..."

He took a sip of tea, put it down, and said: "I thought he was just raising a funny thing, never thought he became a lover now for a beauty? I really can't believe it. Song Xue, what do you think? "

Duan Taifu’s eldest son was named Duan Songxue. At this time, he heard his father’s question and his face was calm, “There are many madmen in the Sima family, but also a lot of love. No matter whether this is true or not, we just look at it now. It is not us who should be worried and anxious."

"However, the imperial concubine Liao in the palace is really a good method. It can force our majesty to do this kind of thing patiently. It should not be underestimated."

Concubine Liao, who should not be underestimated, has no idea what Sima Jiao has done. She is now holding the quilt and feeling dizzy. In the summer, she was afraid of heat, so ice was used in the palace early. As a concubine who wanted what she wanted, of course the ice was enough. Liao Tingyan put a lot of ice basins in the palace without hesitation. As a result of such intemperate behavior, she caught cold and became ill.

In the summer, I was suffering from wind chill again, which was worse than the previous winter.

When Liao Tingyan was drinking the bitter medicine in pain, he couldn't help thinking, why did he sleep with Sima Jiao, and only he was sick. Sima Jiao was okay? It stands to reason that her body is much better than Sima Jiao, this shouldn't be.

After drinking the medicine and containing a preserved fruit, Liao Tingyan fell back on the couch and wrapped himself in brocade.

Next time you can't use so much ice because you are greedy for coolness. It's all about it, and greedy for more will not end well.

Sleeping in a daze, Liao Tingyan felt that someone was sitting next to him, touching her forehead with a cold hand. After a while, the man retracted his hand and walked out.

Liao Tingyan woke up soberly and heard someone talking outside.

"Everyone is now speculating about the reasons for your Majesty's handling of the drought. The slave was puzzled before, but now I know that it was because of the noble concubine." Gao Taibao said with a smile.

Sima Jiao's voice was not very happy, "She became so sick for this...Tsk, it's really troublesome."

Liao Tingyan: "..." No, she was really not worried about getting sick because she was worried about the drought, but because she used too much ice.
