After traveling to ancient times, I relied on my husband to win
Chapter 188 Chen Ti was arrested
Sure enough, the worries arose. The next morning, news spread in the capital that Chen Ti was holding a blood letter written by the folks of Shandong, asking the emperor to allocate grain to save the people of Shandong.
However, the disaster situation has not been fully counted yet, and the emperor does not know the disaster situation in Shandong or other places. All of this needs to be discussed later.
However, Chen Ti did not have the same concerns as the emperor. He was a great scholar from Shandong and was elected by Shandong to enter the court to restrain the emperor, but he loved the elders and fellow countrymen of his hometown.
He was over sixty years old, and he knelt tremblingly at Taihe Gate, holding up a letter written in blood, asking the emperor to help the victims in Shandong.
As the emperor, he looked very unhappy when being bullied and put on a high platform by someone.
I secretly cursed Chen Ti, this old stubborn man who would not adapt.
"Grand Secretary, I have heard about this matter, but we still need to wait for news to come in on the specific situation. We will discuss whether there are other counties and prefectures that have also suffered disasters then. Grand Secretary, go back and wait for news. It won't be long."
Chen Ti only wanted to save his fellow countrymen as soon as possible. Hearing that the emperor wanted to discuss it later was not the answer he wanted. He continued to hold up the blood letter and asked the emperor to rescue Shandong.
This completely pissed off the emperor. The emperor's authority was inviolable, so he stood up from the dragon throne with a bad look on his face.
"Chen Ti, I want you to go back, are you disobeying my order?"
Chen Ti looked directly at the emperor fearlessly, "As long as the emperor is willing to send food to rescue the people of Shandong, even if you punish me for the crime of disrespect, I will admit it."
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, "You are threatening me, do you really think I dare not? Come, Chen Ti disregarded the emperor's will, and he will be thrown into prison immediately."
Chen Ti was put on the stand, still shouting, "I beg the emperor to help the Shandong refugees!"
The emperor was very angry with a wave of his sleeves.
"An old man wants to force me. Is he using his life to force me?"
The emperor was very angry, and no one dared to offend him at this time.
Li Chengze watched Chen Ti being taken away and wanted to excuse him, but was stopped by Li Runyan, who gestured to him to look at Lin Yecheng.
Li Chengze looked over and saw Lin Yecheng shaking his head at him. He could only hold back and do nothing.
But when he returned to the Prince's Mansion after court, he heard the servant report that Miss Chen wanted to see him, and Li Chengze closed his eyes.
Let someone come in, and Chen Yuetong kneeled down to Li Chengze as soon as she came in, with tears all over her face. However, Li Chengze quickly grabbed her arm and stopped her from kneeling down.
"Please, Your Highness, save my grandfather. He did not intend to disobey the will of the emperor. My grandfather was just worried about the people of Shandong. Yue Tong can only ask Your Highness, Your Highness, to save my grandfather now."
After saying that, Chen Yuetong cried even more sadly. Li Chengze felt bad too. This was the woman he loved the most. He felt distressed to see her crying like this. He knew that Chen Yuetong was raised by her grandfather since she was a child, so they naturally had a deep relationship.
He took out the handkerchief, handed it to her, and then let go of her hand.
"Yuetong, I want to help you, but your grandfather has angered my father. But I will do my best, don't worry, don't cry, go back and wait for my news. Hongyu, take your young lady back."
Chen Yuetong wanted to say something, but when she looked at Li Chengze, she didn't know what to say. He had already planned to help her, so she shouldn't add more pressure to him.
Chen Yuetong went back with red eyes.
Li Chengze was also very discouraged. Now both the government and the public were very secretive about the issue, but he still decided to give it a try.
The result was that he was driven out by the furious emperor and put into solitary confinement.
The emperor was really angry. As the crown prince, his authority was challenged. Not only did his son not help him, but he also wanted him to release the person who disobeyed him.
Li Chengze's move added fuel to the fire, but Li Chengze did not stay in the Prince's Mansion honestly. He sneaked out and went to the Qin Mansion.
Qin Yan took Jiang Zhi out for a walk today to see how their winery was doing, and ended up learning about the big event that had happened today from the onlookers.
After they returned, they saw Li Chengze waiting for them. Jiang Zhi realized that Li Chengze had something to do with Qin Yan, so she avoided him and went back to the house first.
Qin Yan sat on a chair, poured a cup of tea, and looked at Li Chengze who was obviously a little restless.
"Why are you here? Is it about the morning court today?"
Li Chengze suppressed his anxious thoughts, "Yes, you have heard about it, right? There is a severe drought in Shandong now. The Grand Secretary angered my father in the court and has been imprisoned. I went to my father to plead for mercy, but he punished me with solitary confinement. Yuetong couldn't come to beg me, and my father didn't listen to my advice at all. Qin Yan, I really have no choice. I sneaked out this time. You have the most ideas. Can you help me think of a solution?"
Li Chengze is really panicked now, he even forgot the title of crown prince. His beloved woman came to him for begging, he couldn't ignore her, but his father is the emperor, it is not easy to deal with if he angers the emperor of a country.
When Qin Yan heard Li Chengze tell everything in one breath, he roughly understood what he had done.
Put down the teacup and sigh, "Chengze, Chen Daxueshi may be eager to save his hometown, but he angered the emperor after all. As a prince, you persuaded the emperor to release those who challenged his authority. It is right to put you in solitary confinement."
After Qin Yan finished speaking, Li Chengze became even more anxious, "I know, I also know that this shouldn't be the case, but what should I do now?"
Qin Yan looked at the anxious Li Chengze, stood up and walked to his side, stretched out his hand to hold his shoulder, and asked him to calm down, "Don't worry, this matter was caused by the drought from the beginning to the end. As long as the drought is resolved and the victims are arranged, the Grand Secretary will not make trouble. The emperor will definitely not make things difficult for him..." But he will definitely not stay safely in the capital at that time.
Qin Yan didn't say the last sentence, because the possibility of Chengze and Yuetong being together in the future was very small. He didn't want to discourage him, but he still thought about the present matter first.
Li Chengze is not a fool. If the disaster was so easy to solve, today's morning court would not have been so ugly. However, he still looked at Qin Yan with hope.
"Qin Yan, I know we need to solve the disaster, but my father and the ministers are exhausted. By the way, you have many ideas. Now that you have mentioned this, do you have a solution?"
Qin Yan didn't want to discourage him, but he didn't give him blind hope either. "Well, I have a way, but it's still immature. I need time to look up information, make calculations, and conduct experiments."
"That means there is hope, right? As long as there is a way, it's good. Qin Yan, I really have to trouble you this time, and thank you for having you. Otherwise, I really don't know what to do."
"Okay, don't worry. The emperor has put you in solitary confinement. Go back quickly. It will be bad if you make the emperor angry again. I can only do my best. I can't guarantee success, but don't worry. Everything will be fine."
