Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1327

Emperor Mingde nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

He was inexplicably moved. Princess Yongle spoke these few words calmly.

But he knew that Princess Yongle had tried countless times and fought countless times in every link of this process to get the current result.

Especially for a woman, she has been maliciously slandered by countless officials who do nothing and pretend to obey her orders.

Under such circumstances, Yongle County never submitted any complaints in these years, and solved all the problems by itself.

It was this woman before her, fighting on the front lines, adding luster to the Northern Wing’s prosperity, and going against the wind.

In the previous life, the North Wing had almost put all its troops into the battle of Lubei. It is conceivable how big the gap in food and grass was.

At that time, what troubled Empress Dowager Huizheng the most was not the strategic decision. After all, it was General Weibei who led the troops to the battle, and there was no doubt about it.

Her biggest headache was food and fodder. There were so many people who needed to be fed every day, and if they were not able to keep up even for one day, the war would be fatal.

It was this woman who escorted the grain of Yongle County all the way to the border. Not only that, she also personally collected grain from the rich people in various cities and from the common people along the way as a princess.

She endured the doubts and wrote a promissory note in the name of Yongle County, promising to return it after the war.

The battle of Lubei was a turning point for the Northern Wing's comeback, and it was also the most important event in the life of Princess Yongle.

At this time, Princess Yongle did not see the emotion in Emperor Mingde's eyes, and continued in a deep voice, "Last year's snowstorm was fierce. Fortunately, we in Yongle County were lucky, and not all places suffered from the snowstorm. Only Longcheng, Xingcheng and other places were severely affected. These places are almost connected."

Emperor Mingde had unknowingly opened the map and looked at it for a long time but couldn't find the place.

Princess Yongle couldn't help it, she stood up and walked to the imperial table, bowed first, then stretched out her jade-like finger and pointed to Longcheng, Xingcheng and other locations.

Emperor Mingde took a closer look and realized, "Then Orange City and Shuangcheng should have also been affected by the disaster."

Princess Yongle nodded seriously. "Last year, the weather monitoring was quite accurate. We started taking a number of measures before the heavy snow completely blocked the roads. First, we urgently deployed the stored grain in the government warehouses in the disaster-free areas and opened temporary passages to ensure that the grain could be delivered to the worst-hit areas in a timely manner. At the same time, we also mobilized the local gentry and wealthy families, encouraging them to open their warehouses to provide relief grain and tide over the difficulties together."

What she didn't say was that last year, the Yongle Palace took the lead in donating grain, materials and silver, which inspired other wealthy people.

"Secondly, we organized manpower and material resources to repair and reinforce houses in the disaster-stricken areas to prevent them from collapsing due to heavy snow and ensure that people have a place to live. In addition, we set up a number of temporary shelters to provide shelter for vagrants and homeless people."

Emperor Mingde still nodded.

Some officials took the lead in responding to disasters, which is commendable and inspiring. But they lack foresight, which is a problem of ability.

Being able to prepare before a disaster strikes is the quality that a superior should have.

In this regard, Princess Yongle undoubtedly did the best.

To be fair, from the perspective of an emperor, Emperor Mingde lacked foresight in many things and had the will but not the ability.

He also felt that he was far inferior to Cen Yuan and the woman in front of him in this regard.

Emperor Mingde sighed, "Yongle County is truly worthy of learning for all officials." He deliberately teased Prince Yongle, "Hey, so Uncle Prince was in charge of the disaster area at the time?"

Prince Yongle was suddenly called out, and he was so flustered that he sat up straight. He was about to answer "yes" at random, but then he changed his mind and thought that these things could be found out on the surface.
