In fact, if he were to say, being a prince consort is not bad, it's a pity that his grandson is not ambitious enough, otherwise, how could Su Mo get the chance to enjoy such a peaceful life?
Humph! When Su Mo sent the soybean oil petition to Princess Kangle via military courier, he knew there was something fishy going on between these two.
But then again, if the two of them get married, then wouldn't there be hope for his second son to marry Princess Kangning?
The son said in the letter that he and Princess Corning fell in love at first sight.
It seems that the rumor that Princess Kangning and Duke Zhenguo secretly got married is false, and the fact that she secretly got married to her own son is true, right?
This damn boy has accomplished nothing, but he is good at coaxing girls. He used to be the eldest daughter of Princess Enyi, and now he is the daughter of the eldest princess.
Oh, so, the second son was born to be a county lord?
The more Marquis Pingyang thought about it, the more he felt that his son had great potential in becoming a county horseman, so he decided to work with his son to make persistent efforts and strive to get into the Grand Princess's Mansion.
It was Su Mo's first time seeing Song Jinxiu in court, and he felt very fresh. His little girl was actually standing at the head of all officials, even forcing him to stand aside.
Today's morning court mainly discussed the situation of disaster relief along the coast and the rewards for the generals in the Su family army.
The disaster relief silver and grain have been distributed, and everyone has put forward their opinions on post-disaster reconstruction.
Song Jinxiu said, "Your Majesty, although natural disasters cannot be avoided, they can be predicted and prevented. I propose that weather forecast bureaus be established in all Cangwu prefectures to predict the weather in advance and remind the people to take shelter in advance."
When it comes to weather forecasts, everyone still admires Song Jinxiu. Ever since her Cangwu People's Daily published weather forecasts, they have become almost inseparable from this newspaper and must check the weather forecast every day.
Therefore, everyone had no objection and unanimously agreed to establish a weather forecast bureau.
Someone said: "It's a pity that hurricanes and tsunamis are so terrible. Even if we knew about them in advance, we couldn't avoid them."
Everyone sighed as well.
The coastal areas suffered severe damage this time, mainly due to the combined effects of hurricanes and tsunamis. Houses could not withstand such a huge disaster at all. Countless people were killed and injured in a short period of time, and the court could only do its best to rescue the survivors.
Seeing Song Jinxiu also showing a heavy expression, Pingyang Hou felt depressed. This little girl is good at pretending. She was just being affectionate with the Duke of Zhenguo, but now she is pretending to be serious. Is she trying to win the favor of the emperor?
Somehow, he just couldn't stand the pretentious look on this girl's face.
Thinking about how his eldest granddaughter was compared to her and was worthless, he couldn't help but sarcastically said:
"Princess Kang Le is extremely intelligent. May I ask, Your Highness, do you have any plans for dealing with hurricanes and tsunamis?"
When he said this, he couldn't suppress the gloating expression on his face.
Humph, I just don’t believe that no matter how capable you are, you can change the course of the natural disaster and turn it back?
Song Jinxiu nodded. "I was just about to say this. If coastal areas want to reduce the damage from hurricanes and tsunamis, they can plant coastal defense forests."
"Planting trees by the sea?" Pingyang Hou couldn't help but raise his voice and laughed:
"Have you ever seen the sea, Your Highness? Have you ever seen a beach? I've had the pleasure of being there, and the beach is all sand, sandy everywhere, and the water is salty. Do you think you can grow trees in that salty, bitter sand?"
Everyone: Did Marquis Pingyang take the wrong medicine? How dare he speak to Princess Kangle like that?
Now they all know that it is better not to set a trap for Princess Kang Le if there is no certainty, otherwise it will be hard to say who will be buried.
Song Jinxiu: I have crossed the Atlantic Ocean and have seen many beach shelterbelts.
She was too lazy to pay attention to the old guy, especially when she saw him rolling his eyes, she remembered the scene in the prophecy about King Yin where the old guy knelt down and licked King Yin.
You should be glad that you didn't do anything to harm the country and the people, and also be glad that you fought to the death to kill that tyrant, otherwise how could I let you go?
Song Jinxiu said with a serious face: "It is indeed difficult to reforest the coastal areas, but compared with the lives of ordinary people, the lives of ordinary people are more important, so we have to do it no matter how difficult it is!"
Marquis Pingyang: Here he comes again, he just doesn’t believe it, does this girl only care about the common people?
Humph! Too much high-sounding talk, is it interesting?
Song Jinxiu ignored him and continued, "As for trees that are adapted to growing in saline-alkali sandy land, there are some, such as Casuarina, Acacia, Black Pine, Robinia, Weeping Willow, Willow, Ailanthus, Chinaberry, Poplar, Elm, Mulberry, Pear, Apricot, Amorpha, Tamarix, Mangrove..."
Song Jinxiu mentioned more than ten kinds of trees in one breath.
Huaiyang Bo said: "Princess, you are right. I have seen Casuarinas growing on the seashore with my own eyes. I can't say anything else, but Casuarinas will definitely survive."
Even the Earl of Huaiyang, who had lived in the coastal area for more than ten years, agreed with Princess Kangle's words, and the Marquis of Pingyang was speechless.
Song Jinxiu said, took out a stack of papers, pointed at the words on the paper and continued:
"I have carefully planned how and what to plant in these shelterbelts. About 100 steps from the front of the coastline, I will plant a pure forest of Casuarina equisetifolia. About 300 steps from the coastline, I will plant a mixture of ephedra and coconut palms. This will help to optimize the structure of the coastal defense forests and enhance their ability to withstand winds.
When these trees grow up, they can block part of the sea water when a tsunami passes through. The mangroves and coral reefs in the wetlands can also consume the energy of the tsunami.
In this way, the sea water entering the village will only rise slowly and then slowly recede. The power of the tsunami will be weakened, which can greatly reduce casualties.
Not to mention hurricanes, you all should be aware of the effectiveness of shelterbelts in blocking wind and sand."
Everyone nodded.
The emperor nodded and said, "It is approved. You, Kang Le, will still be in charge of the weather forecast bureau. As for the windbreaks, please write a charter and I will send someone to deliver it."
Song Jinxiu hurriedly said, "Father, I have already written down the precautions for the coastal defense forest on this piece of paper in great detail. However, I used charcoal pencil, so the characters are a little small. Please take a look, Father. Is there anything that needs to be changed?"
Ever since she discovered the emperor's little thoughts about her, Song Jinxiu has always called herself a son and subject.
The emperor raised his hand and said, "Let my dear ministers take a look. Does it need to be filled?"
Song Jinxiu then passed the paper to the officials around her. They passed it around and saw that it was densely covered with charcoal pencils, with instructions and precautions for coastal afforestation. There were even patterns drawn on it.
After receiving the news of the coastal disaster, Song Jinxiu read a lot of information on coastal afforestation and summarized the experience of coastal afforestation in her previous life for reference.
Pingyang Hou: She came prepared! Didn't I just become a clown?
Everyone: It's you, Marquis Pingyang, who loves to find fault with the princess, and you keep fighting despite repeated defeats. You're truly admirable.
Pingyang Hou was feeling depressed and could not help but snort and turn his face away.
Left Prime Minister Wei Zhen glared at him with disdain: "What are you humming about? If you have the guts, why don't you draw a picture for me?"
Pingyang Hou: "You all should spoil her. A little girl needs to be disciplined from time to time in order to improve."
Everyone: Are you hitting me? You're clearly jealous!
