Deep in the palace.
Ever since Li Shimin started the Xuanwu Gate Incident, he had killed his brother and ascended the throne.
Li Yuan was arranged to stay in the palace.
Li Shimin's original intention was to let Li Yuan stay in the palace and enjoy his life.
However, he had underestimated Li Yuan's ambition.
Even if Li Yuan was forced to abdicate, he was still a retired emperor.
He still had his forces!
Li Shiming was already known for killing his own brother. If he killed Li Yuan, he would be known for killing his own father. To Li Shiming…
It was extremely disadvantageous!
Li Yuan seemed to have grasped this point of Li Shiming, so he had been expanding his power and fighting with Li Shiming.
Now…
The drought in Hedong Road was actually a game between the two sides!
Li Shimin wanted to solve the problem of the drought in Hedong Road.
However, Li Yuan refused to let him solve it. Moreover, most of the officials in Hedong Road were old officials and were on his side...
With a single command, the entire Hedong Road was under his control!
And now…
"Your Majesty, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, and the others are organizing disaster relief again. They're preparing to transport the goods to the east of the river…" An eunuch arrived outside the palace and whispered.
Within the palace.
" It's fine." Li Yuan sneered and said sarcastically," Let them go to the disaster relief. Their food won't reach the people anyway…"
"When the time comes, the food will still be in the hands of our own people.”
"Fang Xuanling and the others are fighting to give us food. How can we not accept it??”
The father-in-law also laughed.
Li Yuan didn't care about this at all. He only asked,"Where's Erlang? He hasn't returned yet?"!”
The eunuch shook his head." His Highness the King of Qin has been incognito for many days, but he hasn't returned yet. I don't know what he's up to…"
"Your Majesty, should we send someone to keep an eye on His Highness the King of Qin?!”
In front of Li Yuan.
He absolutely could not address Li Shi Min as His Majesty. This was a big taboo!
Because in Li Yuan's opinion,
There was only one Emperor, and that was himself!
As for Li Shi Min, he was just an unfilial son who stole his throne!
Li Yuan would be beaten down sooner or later!
Now.
Li Yuan snorted coldly when he heard that.! I think he's afraid! With this little ability, you dared to snatch my throne back then?!”
"Ridiculous!"
"There's no need to send people to keep an eye on him. Since he wants to go incognito, then let him go.”
"Let them handle the disaster relief…"
" Anyway, the food will not fall into the hands of the people. When the drought in the east of the river is not resolved, the people will be filled with resentment..."
A sinister smile appeared on Li Yuan's face." When the time comes, I want to see how long Erlang, the emperor who ascended the throne by killing his brothers, can last."!”
When the eunuch heard this, he was even more terrified.
Ever since Li Shimin ascended the throne, he had indeed wanted to be a good emperor.
However, the times didn't allow it…
Natural and man-made disasters came one after another, forcing Li Shiming to be mentally and physically exhausted!
And now, the drought in Hedong Road was one of the problems!
Li Shimin wanted to relieve the people and solve the problem of drought in Hedong Road!
But in Li Yuan's eyes, it was a dream!
He said,
How could he allow Li Shimin to go and relieve the people? How could he allow Li Shimin to solve the problem of the drought in the east of the river?!
" You want to be a good emperor?!"
" You're dreaming!" Li Yuan sneered, his eyes cold.!”
……
Four days later.
The relief supplies arranged by Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, and the others had all arrived at Hedong Road.
Just as Li Yuan had said…
Since they wanted to provide disaster relief, Li Yuan and the others naturally wouldn't refuse, because the officials of Hedong Road were all on his side...
In any case, the food would not fall into the hands of the common people!
At that time…
All the food had fallen into Li Yuan's hands, so why should he refuse?!
Therefore, Fang Xuanling and the others 'relief supplies were unimpeded…
He directly arrived at Hedong Road!
The officials of Hedong Road had long received the secret edict from Retired Emperor Li Yuan!
They knew what to do!
The officials intercepted the relief supplies one by one. Then, they grinned hideously." Open the boxes and let me see what's inside."
An order was given.
The boxes were all opened. He thought that it would be the same good food as the previous disaster relief.
But this time, when it was opened, it made everyone's jaws drop!
Inside the box…
It was all rotten food that was mixed with stones and sand!
Just looking at it made one lose their appetite!
"This…"
"What kind of nonsense is this?! Is this for disaster relief?"
"But the Retired Emperor made a mistake. Do we have to accept this thing?”
"Accept my ass! Can this thing be eaten? Why should I accept it?!”
The official rebuked angrily. He seemed to be in a bad mood. He cursed," Carry it away. I don't want this thing even if you give it to me. Hurry up and carry it away!"”
Very quickly.
The relief supplies continued to reach Hedong Road, but the officials were just as Su Ze had said…
They were used to coveting good things!
Now, these rotten grains were like trash in their eyes. They were not interested at all!
The officials of Hedong Road who should have been completely corrupted…
But this time, for the first time, there was no corruption because they were too lazy to be greedy!
And the first time.
The food supplies provided by the imperial court for disaster relief had finally reached the hands of the people!!
The turning point had begun to appear!
