I put my hands in my pockets that year, and only then did I know what immortality and invincibility are Chapter 107, The Distribution of the Three Princes
Chapter 107, The Distribution of the Three Princes
After having several princes help handle government affairs, the emperor became much more relaxed.
Several princes are also very willing to help the emperor handle government affairs. In their opinion, as long as they work harder and perform well, they have a high probability of being crowned prince.
Unfortunately, the emperor had no intention of canonizing any of them as princes.
After handling government affairs for a few days, the emperor also sorted out all the memorials that needed to be processed.
The emperor didn't have a good way to deal with these memorials, and he was very troubled by them.
A few days later, the civil servants at the imperial court, headed by Du Mingsi, raised the issue of drought in the Northeast and floods in the South again and again, asking the Emperor to deal with it.
The emperor asked them how to deal with it, and Du Mingsi replied: "Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, a qualified person should be sent there."
"Someone with status, could it be that the Prime Minister wants to go there in person?" the emperor asked.
Du Mingsi replied: "Your Majesty, what I mean is that your Majesty can send a prince there."
"In this way, the people see the royal family coming out in person, which proves that the emperor has always cared about them and the disasters there, which can give the royal family a higher prestige."
"Secondly, it can test the prince. For the emperor, he can also see his ability."
Du Mingsi's words didn't make sense, so the emperor asked: "Then according to the prime minister's wishes, who should be sent there?"
Du Mingsi said quickly: "The three princes are all very outstanding. As for who to send, it depends on the emperor's wishes."
"Oh, then I really need to think about it carefully," the emperor replied.
After the dispersion of the dynasty, the emperor had been thinking about this matter.
The emperor thought that Du Mingsi would definitely let the second prince do this.
However, Du Mingsi did not say that, which surprised the emperor.
However, it was precisely because Du Mingsi did not say so that the emperor was a little confused.
He didn't know what Du Mingsi wanted to do, nor what Du Mingsi's specific thoughts were.
After a few days, the emperor still had not decided which prince to send to deal with these matters.
Du Mingsi naturally talked about this matter in the court every day.
The second prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince, after hearing what happened in the court, began to report frequently and wanted to recommend themselves for work.
The emperor naturally knew what they were thinking, but still did not reply.
On this day, the emperor was upset and began to play chess with Su Fang and said: "Who do you think should be better sent to deal with matters in the court?"
The emperor mentioned it to Zuo Qianqiu several times, and it was impossible for Su Fang to pretend not to know.
So, Su Fang said: "Wei Chen, please tell us your own opinions based on your own thoughts."
"Go on, don't be so nervous, I just want to see what you think." The emperor said.
When Su Fang heard this, he said: "Actually, I think it would be a bit bad no matter which prince is sent to deal with it alone."
"Since the three princes all want to share your worries, as a father, the emperor might as well give them a chance."
"Anyway, there are a lot of big things going on right now. You can send one of them to the northwest to deal with the drought, and the other to the south to deal with the flood."
"As for the remaining one, they should stay by their side to handle government affairs. This is fair and can also show their abilities. Others above the court will never have any objections."
"Even the three princes think it's fair. After all, they all have a chance and a chance to show themselves."
Su Fang's words made the emperor suddenly enlightened and said: "Hahaha, I didn't expect that the problem that has troubled me for several days has been solved by you. Wonderful! Wonderful, that's it."
"Wei Chen is just talking casually. In fact, I don't know how to arrange it specifically. Moreover, the emperor may be able to come up with a more perfect solution based on my suggestion."
Su Fang said quickly.
"You, you, take all the credit every time and don't want to get any credit."
The emperor looked at Su Fang, the more he looked at him, the more he liked him.
Su Fang does not compete for fame and fortune. When others compete for credit, he always pushes the credit to others.
"Wei Chen really doesn't have any merit, I just hope he doesn't make any mistakes." Su Fang replied.
"Okay, okay, I know what you mean." The emperor understood what Su Fang was thinking, but he just didn't want a reward.
After receiving Su Fang's suggestions, the emperor did improve on Su Fang's method.
Soon, the three princes began to choose three options on their own.
The second prince chose to go to the south according to Du Mingsi's request.
The reason for doing this is entirely due to officials from the DPRK and China, most of whom are from the south.
There, with the help of major aristocratic families and officials, Du Mingsi could easily solve everything, whether it was building rivers and dams or raising personnel and funds.
Afterwards, the third prince went to the north.
The mother of the third prince is from a wealthy family in the north.
With the third prince's maternal family coming forward, it will naturally be easier for the third prince to solve the drought problem.
As for the fifth prince, he stayed in the palace.
The fifth prince and the eldest prince were born to the same mother.
However, after the eldest prince rebelled, he was sent to the cold palace and no one could see him.
The fifth prince stayed in the palace and wanted to intercede for the eldest prince, the seventh prince, and his mother.
The fifth prince behaves well not for the throne, but for others.
He also never thought about the throne.
Because the fifth prince knew that without anyone's support, it would be impossible for him to become the emperor.
He only hopes to perform well and be rewarded by the emperor, thus pardoning his mother.
As for the matter between the eldest prince and the seventh prince, we need to wait until Du Mingsi's matter is resolved.
After the matter was resolved, the emperor chose a good and auspicious day to send the two princes away.
These two major matters were solved by someone, and then Du Mingsi and others were stable for a while.
However, Su Fang had already seen that the commander of the Jinyi Guards, Mao Jiarong, who had never appeared, also appeared in front of the emperor.
There are two core forces around the emperor, one is Dongchang headed by Zuo Qianqiu.
As for the other one, it is Jin Yiwei.
The Jin Yiwei has always been lurking in the dark. Even when the emperor was poisoned, there was no movement.
At this moment, the commander of the Jin Yiwei had appeared, which proved that the emperor's counterattack was also ready to begin.
Su Fang did not have the emperor's specific plan, but Su Fang knew very well that since the emperor chose to take action, the next movement would definitely not be too small.
Zuo Qianqiu sent a letter to Su Fang, saying: "It belongs to the Eighth Prince."
Su Fang nodded, returned to the room, and began to watch.
This is already the fifth letter sent to him by the Eighth Prince.
Su Fang naturally responded to the letter once.
This time, Su Fang planned to see what Qin Yuan told him.
