Chapter 476: Natural and Man-made Disasters

It's not that Bai Zimo is not fake, but also annoyed by those magistrates in Shuocheng, if it weren't for the corruption of local officials, how would Shuocheng burst the embankment!

Regarding Emperor Qian's gloomy tone, Bai Zimo didn't even raise his eyelids, "If Your Majesty has nothing else to do, the minister will retire first." ”

As for Emperor Qian's words, he was directly ignored by Bai Zimo.

If you have time here to listen to Emperor Qian's-for-tat, why don't you go back and think about how you can help Shuocheng get through this hurdle?

After all, the people of Shuocheng are innocent.

"Stand down. "Emperor Qian, now, it is true that he doesn't want to see Bai Zimo.

Then, Bai Zimo left without looking back, leaving Emperor Qiandi alone in the empty hall and sighing.

......

At the same time, the news of the flood in Shuocheng also reached Zhu Yan's ears as soon as possible.

Zhu Yan learned that Pei Qingqing went to Jiulong Mountain to hunt, and originally planned to go to Jiulong Mountain to see the scenery.

But Bluesleeves suddenly arrived and stopped him.

"Childe, something happened!" Blue Sleeves' beautiful brows furrowed, it was rare to see Blue Sleeves showing such a solemn look.

Zhu Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's wrong?"

As soon as he wanted to go to Jiulong Mountain, Blue Sleeves hurried over.

"Shuocheng burst its embankment, floods are everywhere, and we have suffered heavy losses..."

Their industry in Shuocheng has been seriously affected and has suffered heavy losses.

And before that, Zhu Yan also instructed her to rectify the foundation of the Xu family in Shuocheng, this time, not only is the foundation of the Xu family gone, but their foundation in Shuocheng has also lost more than half!

Who would have thought that the embankment would burst all of a sudden.

Hearing that Shuocheng burst the embankment, Zhu Yan was indeed surprised, "You said that Shuocheng broke the embankment?"

This year's rainfall is not large, and it stands to reason that there will be no floods that will burst the levees.

And wasn't the embankment in Shuocheng repaired only three years ago?

Zhu Yan instantly thought that someone must have been corrupt and made some tofu scum projects, so that the river embankment would be so vulnerable.

"The embankment burst came too suddenly, and we were unprepared, resulting in the destruction of most of the shops...... "Blue Sleeves said with a distressed face.

This embankment burst came unexpectedly, not to mention the industry, it is a great luck that the small life was not planted in it!

"This year's water is not large, so it stands to reason that the levee should not burst suddenly. Zhu Yan said thoughtfully.

Maybe someone is behind it?

But now, now that the levee has been broken and the disaster has been achieved, it is useless to say anything.

It is only the innocent people who suffer.

Although he was not a saint, he considered himself a moral businessman.

Speaking again, Zhu Yan's tone couldn't help but sigh a little, "The hearts of the people are corrupt, and those innocent people are still affected." ”

"Blue sleeves, you go to Shuocheng in person, and keep an eye on the magistrates of Shuocheng, if the magistrates help the people, that's it, if you don't care about the lives of the people, you can help one and count one. ”

Blue sleeves naturally knows the seriousness of this matter, and it is those innocent people who die badly, who have always been high-ranking people who stink of wine and meat, and there are frozen bones on the road.

Not to mention under such natural and man-made disasters.

In fact, Blue Sleeves knows that Zhuyan is still kind-hearted.

"Yes, don't worry, Childe, I'll go. Blue Sleeves gave one last reluctant glance at Zhu Yan before leaving.

And Zhu Yan sighed, it really affected his mood to go to Jiulong Mountain.

......

After Bai Zimo came back from Emperor Qian, he was silent alone for a long time without speaking.

When Pei Qingqing woke up, she saw Bai Zimo's sad face.

She got up and went to the man's side, "Why does the husband have a sad face, isn't something wrong?"

Did Emperor Qiandi make him angry?

Didn't he just say that he was going to see Emperor Qian? Why did he come back with such a preoccupied look?

Pei Qingqing was even thinking about it, was it because of the of recognizing his ancestors and returning to his ancestors that made Bai Zimo unhappy?

Pei Qingqing wanted to smooth his frowning brows for him, but the man grabbed his fingertips and held them in his hands, "I just went to see Your Majesty, and I learned that a report was made that Shuocheng had burst its embankment and the people were displaced..."

Pei Qingqing was stunned when she heard this, she didn't expect it to be such a thing?

"Shuocheng burst the embankment...... Pei Qingqing was surprised and also felt regretful, but, "Natural and man-made disasters, this is something that no one can do, and the husband still doesn't have to worry too much..."

Natural and man-made disasters are beyond the reach of manpower, nor can they be changed by manpower, and no one can predict them.

At present, he can only try his best to relieve the people of Shuocheng, but since Emperor Qiandi has told him, he must have discussed with Emperor Qiandi about relieving the people.

Who knows, this time Bai Zimo shook his head, "According to this, this is not like a natural or man-made disaster." ”

To be precise, it doesn't look like a natural disaster, but like a man-made disaster.

"What does the husband mean ......" With Pei Qingqing's understanding of Bai Zimo, how could he not hear the meaning of his words.

What he meant......

The man's deep voice was a little worried, "The amount of rain this year is not large, and it is not enough to reach the amount of water that will burst the embankment, and besides, the embankment in Shuocheng has been repaired and reinforced, even if the officials are corrupt, the embankment that can be strengthened should not be so vulnerable." ”

Even if some officials embezzled money to repair the embankment, the embankment was reinforced, and it stands to reason that it should not be so vulnerable.

If Zhu Yan is here at this moment, he will find that what Bai Zimo said is exactly the same as what he said.

Pei Qingqing naturally understood the meaning of his words, "So the husband suspects that someone is doing something behind his back, causing Shuocheng to burst the embankment?"

What does Bai Zimo mean is that someone is playing a ghost behind his back?

This thought still surprised Pei Qingqing, who was so mad and did such a thing?

This is completely not taking the lives of the people of Shuocheng as human lives!

Bai Zimo didn't speak, so he also acquiesced to Pei Qingqing's guess.

That's what he suspected.

"What did Your Majesty say?" Pei Qingqing thought and asked one more question.

In the event of such a natural and man-made disaster, the people should be relieved anyway, right?

"Whenever there is a disaster, the first one is naturally to relieve the people and comfort the victims, but the emperor of Shuocheng is far away, and no one knows what the situation is. The man sighed faintly.

Whenever there is a disaster, the imperial court will allocate funds for disaster relief, but there are few children who really use it for the people.

When the silver is transferred from the imperial court, it is exploited layer by layer, and finally it goes to the people, how much money is left?

Bai Zimo's meaning, Pei Qingqing understands it, but this world is like this, who can blame it?

Looking at the man's thoughtful face, Pei Qingqing said tentatively, "Does the husband want to go to Shuocheng?"

Even if this man was just a slight expression, she knew what this man was thinking?

Does he want to take a trip to Shuocheng?
