Zheng Xiasheng has been in government for many years and has a very keen political sense.

His guess was correct.

When the eunuch from the Imperial Household Department handed the news about Jia Shao to the Minister of Rites Dong Yan.

Dong Yan immediately sent a letter to Yuanzhou Prefecture in Jiangxi.

Of course, Jiangxi is a long way away, and it will take some time for the letter to be delivered.

At the same time, the six ministries in the entire court began to get busy.

The next morning court session.

With the recommendation of the cabinet, Xiangrui County Magistrate Chang Tao was appointed as the prefect of Hanzhong Prefecture to assist Li Duan in providing disaster relief in Shaanxi.

The whole court was stunned.

Chang Tao was promoted three levels in a row. He is really lucky!

The Minister of Revenue cooperated with the Cabinet and allocated 10,000 dan of grain to Mengjin, a place of auspiciousness.

The refugees in Mengjin finally don’t have to go hungry anymore!

Of course, a large amount of silver, grain, medicinal herbs, etc. will soon be allocated to Shaanxi.

Three days later.

The Mengjin fishing boat loaded with Yellow River carp arrived in the capital.

The emperor ordered the imperial kitchen to prepare a "fish banquet" and praised the Yellow River carp as "the freshest fish".

That day.

All the high-ranking officials in the court, including the civil and military officials, benefited from His Majesty's kindness and were given a few Yellow River carps.

Yellow River carp has become the most popular food in Beijing.

Seeing the opportunity, the merchants took handfuls of silver and set their sights on Mengjin and the Mengjin Yellow River carp.

However, what attracted the most attention from the official circles, the people and the literary circles was the "Mengjin Auspicious Sign".

The Holy Emperor is benevolent and virtuous, and God has bestowed blessings upon him.

God bless Daliang!

After the court and cabinet announced the story of "Mengjin auspicious sign" to the world.

Officials from all over the country responded to the call:

Taking Chang Tao as an example, I am willing to share the worries of my king and father, share the worries of Daliang, and rush to help Shaanxi!

Even the scholars in the literary world were full of passion and worked hard for the drought relief in Shaanxi, lobbying officials to accept refugees from Shaanxi and provide work-for-relief.

The Daliang Dynasty worked together to help Shaanxi.

As a result, many refugees from Shaanxi who fled their homes were surprised to find that they were no longer despised.

No matter where they went, there were government officials willing to take them in and provide disaster relief and soup kitchens.

It was as if the previous year of hardship, the miserable experience of being driven away everywhere and enduring hunger was an illusion.

The nightmare is over.

They can finally survive.

Thank you for this auspicious sign!

The other side.

Chen Mansion, Yuanzhou, Jiangxi Province.

Former Prime Minister Chen Bing opened the letter sent by Dong Yan tremblingly with a complicated expression.

It was a wrong decision after all.

He originally thought that he could use the "Confession of Sins" incident to retreat bravely and let Zheng Xiasheng take over for the time being to taste the wrath of His Majesty.

I never thought that only a year has passed.

The auspicious sign in Mengjin suddenly appeared, and like a subtle and silent rain, it untied the knot of discord between the emperor and his ministers.

Zheng Xiasheng and His Majesty have this auspicious relationship. In the next two or three years, Chen Bing probably won't have the chance to return to the court.

The person who controlled all this behind the scenes was actually a 16-year-old young boy.

No wonder, no wonder His Majesty is so happy that he even wants to exchange letters with this young man.

Jia Shao is exactly the epitome of what a 'virtuous minister' should be in your majesty's mind!

Although his mood was complicated, a glimmer of hope appeared in Chen Bing's old eyes.

If we can bring Jia Shao under our command...

If this person could just mention me subtly when communicating with Your Majesty, I could return to the court again!

And what Chen Bing could think of, Zheng Xiasheng could naturally think of as well.

Jia Shao will definitely be wooed and courted by all parties.

Chen Bing had an idea in mind, and said to his men, "Write a letter quickly and inform the prefect of Luoyang, asking him to invite Jia Shao to a banquet in the name of inspecting Mengjin."

Before Li Duan rushed to Shaanxi to provide disaster relief.

He sent a letter to the Henan Provincial Administration Commissioner: 10,000 dan of relief grain will be sent to Mengjin soon. You are responsible for monitoring and ensuring that the grain is delivered on time and in the right amount. And find a suitable opportunity to make friends with Jia Shao.

besides.

The eunuch guarding Henan also received a letter asking him to "make friends with Jia Shao".

The incident in the court has been resolved.

Outside the court, a dispute over "fighting for Jia Shao" has officially begun!

·

Mengjin.

Time has passed little by little since County Magistrate Chang Tao came to Beijing.

In the blink of an eye, more than twenty days passed.

April is here, and there is less than half a month left until the Luoyang Flower Viewing and Literary Festival.

Chang Tao never came back.

Mengjin County has been opening its granaries to distribute grain for relief for such a long time that the grain will soon be emptied out.

Whether inside or outside the city, the atmosphere is becoming increasingly tense.

The three leaders of the anti-Xian alliance, Qi Huaiming, Ruan Xiude, and Yan Siyuan, were scratching their heads in anxiety.

Not only these three, but the rest of the anti-Xian alliance were also becoming increasingly impatient.

This group of black fans came to the backyard of Mengjin County Government Office every day and hung around Jia Shao.

One is to repeatedly beg Jia Shao to join the anti-Xian alliance and become their leader.

Second, I was repeatedly worried: Can Mengjin Xiangrui really succeed? What if Changtao is useless and messes up Mr. Jia Shao's arrangement?

Don't let this implicate the new leader of our anti-Xian alliance!

Cui Xian ignored these black fans.

He spent every day leisurely in the county government office. Occasionally, when he had some free time, he would go to the roof of Hongyan Tower to watch the Yellow River, looking particularly calm and relaxed.

Yan Siyuan and others were so impressed that their eyes sparkled and they admired him very much: He is truly worthy of being our leader!

With this attitude, who else could be there?

Of course, Cui Xian was not completely ineffective.

For example, on the second day after Chang Tao arrived in Beijing, he wrote a letter to his teacher, Mr. Dong Lai. The content was roughly as follows:
