The trial was announced to the world, and He Hua naturally knew the news.

She thought it was Qin Xinrou's mediation that made the emperor dismiss her father's official position, so she was even more grateful to Qin Xinrou.

He Hua prepared some gifts according to Wen Zheng's rewards, and immediately visited Qin Xinrou.

"Concubine Shu, thank you so much, please accept these gifts."

Qin Xinrou picked it up, a little puzzled, "This is it?"

"If you hadn't spoken kindly in front of the emperor, the emperor might not let my father go so easily."

The corner of Qin Xinrou's mouth curled up slightly, she didn't say anything to the emperor at all.

This silly woman is really silly and cute.

If she had the ability to make the emperor spare them, then she must be the queen now.

Qin Xinrou raised her hand and patted He Hua's hand, "Don't worry, as long as you and I are still in this palace, your family will be safe and sound. Your father's official position will be restored sooner or later."

He Hua nodded, feeling more and more that Qin Xinrou is a backer worth relying on.

It rained for a few more days, and this rain undoubtedly made the disaster victims worse.

The rebuilt homes were washed away by the rain, and the frail women and children became seriously ill because of the rain.

Ye Chu and Wen Zheng looked at the continuous drizzle outside the window, and both of them sighed heavily.

"When will this rain stop?" Wen Zheng looked out the window, worried, and he was worried about the people who were displaced.

Ye Chu lowered his eyes, watching Yusi break into the room through the window.Some hit the window edge, splashing a splash of water.

"It's raining at the wrong time, if it was earlier..."

Earlier, these refugees would not have been reduced to this point.

Earlier, this North will not have to suffer from severe drought.

She didn't go on, but Wen Zheng already understood.

Wen Zheng put his hands behind his back and looked into the distance, "Perhaps, this is to remind me that it's time to clean up the court. Blindly pampering and turning a blind eye will only make those poisonous insects in the cholera court even worse. presumptuous."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to be too anxious about this matter. If the court is to be purged, it should be done step by step."

"I understand, but after this incident, I feel very uncomfortable. The court did not treat them badly, but they are in their position but don't think about their duties, which really chills me."

"If you stay in an official position for a long time, you will inevitably be contaminated by this troubled world. There are also many honest and honest officials around, so the emperor doesn't need to bother you."

"If I don't care about this country, then am I worthy?"

Ye Chu sighed leisurely, "The country is the emperor's country. If the emperor wants to become a wise king, he must spend some effort. It is precisely because the emperor is a wise king that the people support him. This is complementary."

"The queen sees it clearly, but these officials... well, if they can understand that it is for the people and the country, it is for the family and the country, and they will not do such things. Stop the refugees outside the city , It’s nothing more than unloading one’s black hat.”

"Your majesty, what you can see right now is so much, how many things the emperor can't see. If the emperor returns to the palace, he will conduct a thorough investigation of the court officials. I'm afraid it will scare the snake away and treat the symptoms rather than the root cause."

"Then what should I do?" Wen Zheng looked out the window and sighed, the rain hadn't stopped, and so had his worries.

"Let's go with the flow." Ye Chu lowered his eyes, "It's just such a disaster, so it has a reason."

"But this natural and man-made disaster is beyond human control."

"Then it's better to choose some clean and honest people first." Ye Chu stroked his stomach, "I think about it, the drought in the north has caused the people to live in dire straits. If the emperor is in the court and asks officials to come to the north voluntarily, maybe there will be some people who are honest and honest." A group of good officials who are clean and honest for the people."

"The empress is a good planner. Everyone knows that the disaster in the Northland is a hard job."

The rain has no tendency to stop, but one worry after another.

Wen Zheng turned around and took a letter from the table and handed it to Ye Chu. Ye Chu looked at the envelope suspiciously, "Is this? From the Queen Mother?"

"Yes."

"Queen, is this calling the emperor back to the palace?" Ye Chu asked as he opened the envelope.

The empress dowager's physical condition was written on it, and her words were fierce, which meant to threaten her with death.

Ye Chu looked at Wen Zheng, "Your Majesty, are you preparing to return to court?"

"Originally, I went back after finishing the matter at hand. But now, the rain is not clear, and the heavy rain is coming suddenly. I don't know how long the rain will last."

"The emperor is worried that the rain will aggravate the disaster?"

"That's right, the terrain of these four cities and eight counties is quite low. If it rains for several days, I'm afraid that these four cities and eight counties will suffer disaster."

Ye Chu's brows were also slightly clouded, "Then let the concubine go back to the palace first, and one of the left and right will go back to take care of the queen mother, so as not to let the queen mother send letters repeatedly. When the rain subsides, the concubine will set off .”

"No, now that you are pregnant, the journey is already difficult, and with the rain, how can I rest assured!"

"That's not the case, the day of returning to the palace is far away."

Wen Zheng frowned and walked around the room, "In this case, I will send a team of guards to explore the road first, and let them go for a day to build a shelter from the rain on the road. In this way, it will be rainy for days, Not even a place to hide."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking care of your concubines."

"What did the queen say?"

This time, Ye Chu reduced the number of people and horses and prepared more carriages for the return trip.In this way, if the rain is urgent, they can rest in the carriage.

He Ruoxue was a little worried, so she came to look for Ye Chu while packing up.

"Empress, why are you in such a hurry. It's raining like this, and you're pregnant with the emperor's heir, not to mention you're planning to take a horse-drawn carriage by land. Although the land journey is fast, how can your body handle it?"

"It's okay, it's been more than a month since I came out, and it's time to go back to the palace."

"In the palace...but what happened?" He Ruoxue didn't know that it was the empress dowager who sent the message, so naturally she didn't know the reason for returning to the palace.

Ye Chu's eyebrows twitched slightly, "It's not a big deal, the Queen Mother is an old man, she just feels lonely in the palace."

"But, don't be so anxious, right?"

Ye Chu sighed, put down the clothes in his hands and said, "If it wasn't for the disaster in Beicheng, I'm afraid he would already be in the palace at this moment. Compared with the past, the days of going north this time are already much longer."

"The concubine understands." He Ruoxue thought for a while and then asked, "Then the emperor still won't go back to the palace?"

"The emperor asked me to go first, so he will stay and deal with the matter. The heavy rain made the disaster victims worse. Your majesty, the disaster victims must be settled before returning to the palace."

"This rain came too fast and too fast. But it happened at the wrong time. If it had been earlier, there wouldn't be a severe drought in Beicheng."

"Right now, I just hope that the rain will stop soon. If the heavy rain lasts for several days, not a whole city will be affected."
