At this moment, the court was in chaos, because countless victims had already flocked to the capital, most of them from Jingzhou.

Jingzhou suffered the most severe disaster this time. The dam burst, the flood engulfed people's homes, and countless families were displaced.

Although the imperial court sent money for disaster relief as soon as possible, it did not have any effect.

Countless refugees flocked here, and even rebels appeared in the area.

The court has been in turmoil over this for several days.

"Father, I am willing to go to Jingzhou to find out where the disaster relief funds went."

Prince Yong Yuan Ce stood up.

After the last hunting trip, he saw many doctors for his leg, but in the end it was still disabled.

He tried his best to conceal it, but you could still tell something from the way he walked.

Neither Emperor Xuanwu nor the court officials expected that he would volunteer.

The Jingzhou incident this time is a hot potato.

If you are not careful, not only will you not be able to achieve any merit, you may even get killed.

After Yuan Ce became disabled, everyone had assumed that he had withdrawn from the competition for that position, but now, this man jumped out.

For a time, the court officials all had their own thoughts.

Emperor Xuanwu was stunned, but his eyes were filled with relief. He looked at Yuan Ce with admiration and said:

"You are good."

"Since you really want to do something to help the people affected by the disaster, then go ahead."

"Pass on my decree, appoint Prince Yong as the Imperial Envoy, grant him the Imperial Sword, and give him the power to execute first and report later."

As soon as the imperial edict was issued, the faces of the court officials changed again.

This was the first time that Emperor Xuanwu appointed his son as an imperial envoy.

Yuan Ce was also the first and only person to be conferred the title of prince.

The court officials who had previously given up any hope in Yuan Ce were now getting restless again.

It was not too late. Emperor Xuanwu ordered Yan Mingjue to lead the Eagle Corps to protect Yuan Ce's safety.

This move caused an uproar in the court.

Everyone knows that Yan Ming is now a popular figure around Emperor Xuanwu.

The emperor was willing to send him to protect Prince Yong, which shows the status of Prince Yong in his heart.

Yan Mingjue frowned slightly when he received the order.

As early as when he received the news that Jingzhou was in rebellion, he knew that it was only a matter of time before he was sent out, but he did not expect it to come so soon.

It would have been fine if it was any other time, but Su Qingwan happened to be pregnant at this moment.

The imperial edict has been issued and it cannot be changed at this time.

On this day, Yan Mingjue came home early, which was rare. He wanted to talk to Su Qingwan, but found that Su Qingwan had fallen asleep again.

"Madam, do you go to bed so early every day?"

he asked.

"Yes."

"Madam, you have been feeling sleepy every day since you became pregnant."

Hong Jin on the side replied.

Because only the dishes she cooked were acceptable to Su Qingwan, her status in the mansion had risen.

"Has the imperial physician come to see you?"

Yan Mingjue asked again.

"The imperial physician comes to check Madam's pulse every day and says she is doing very well. This is normal."

"He also said that this is good, because if my wife sleeps well, the child will grow up well."

Hong Jin answered respectfully.

Yan Mingjue asked Su Qingwan in detail what she ate every day, and Hong Jin told him everything.

Yan Mingjue finally nodded and looked at her approvingly:

"Thanks a lot."

"Master, please don't say that."

"This is my duty."

Yan Mingjue really liked Hong Jin's attitude at this time. He promised:

"Think about what you want."

"When my wife gives birth safely, I will promise you one thing."

Hong Jin was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you, sir."

Yan Mingjue waved his hand to let Hong Jin go down first, while he sat beside the bed to watch over Su Qingwan.

Hong Jin bowed and retreated. When she closed the door, she couldn't help but glance at Yan Mingjue, with desire and hidden hatred in her eyes!
