Zhongyun in the "Chinese": "The mouth of the people is more important than the defense of Sichuan." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
On the day the party was beheaded, there was a mysterious person who hijacked the law field, and it has been spread around the capital. In order to quell the folk rumors, Zhao Wenzheng announced the emperor list to the world. Explain the cause and effect of the incident, and implicitly warn the people not to talk about the matter casually. In addition, Zhao Wenzheng ordered the state governments to appoint lobbyists to spread the news among the people: the party conspired against the party, hijacked the court in the wrong way, and the emperor acted vigorously and resolutely and deployed in advance, showing the attitude of a clear monarch and anticipating the enemy first.
In addition, at this time, free schools have been built in various places, and many children from poor families have also carried schoolbags on their backs and used their spare time to go to the school to read and write. The emperor's sincere actions for the people have been praised by the people of Chen State.
For a while, public opinion began to fall to Zhao Wenzheng's side.
In the secret mansion in the capital, the old man frowned slightly, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and said coldly: "Zhao Wenzheng, a hairy boy, will actually use public opinion to build momentum for himself?" ”
"Master, what are we going to do now?"
The old man snorted and asked, "What's going on over there in Tangmen?" ”
"This ......" the leader of the men in black hesitated for a moment and said, "My subordinates have sent people to Jincheng, but they said that the head of the family is not there, so let me wait ......"
The old man slapped the table and snorted, "What's not there?" It's just a prevarication! ”
"Yes, my subordinates have sent people to go there several times, and they all said that the head of the family is out." The black-clothed leader said, "The subordinates said that they would invite Tang Rao, the eldest daughter of the Tang Sect, but they were also stopped at the door several times. ”
The old man took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "Tang Men is not embarrassed to be embarrassed?" Judging from these few events, Tang Men is afraid that he has already taken refuge in the imperial court. ”
"Subordinates, please tell the master, what should we do next?"
The old man was silent for a while, then sneered and said, "The matter of the Tang Gate can be put aside for a while, don't we still have a lot of nails that have not been activated?" ”
The black-clothed leader said: "Yes, there are our secret nails all over the country. ”
The old man said: "Zhao Wenzheng, that kid will use public opinion to create momentum among the people, won't I wait?" You immediately give the order to go down......"
"Subordinates obey."
In the blink of an eye, it was early winter.
A sudden flood put Chen Guo, who had just stabilized, into danger again.
According to reports from various places, the gap in the flow of the Yellow River was suddenly washed away by floods one after another, and as many as five prefecture capitals, dozens of counties and towns, and countless villages were afflicted. Many people have their homes destroyed, left their homes, and fled with their families.
The bad news came, and there was chaos in the DPRK and China.
Zhao Wenzheng ordered that the granaries in various places should be opened immediately to release grain, and all the tax grain of the five prefecture capitals this autumn would not be allowed to be paid tribute to Beijing, and all of them would be diverted for disaster relief. In addition, the Ministry of Household allocated 1 million taels for disaster relief.
"Your Majesty, the ministers think that Yizhuang in various places should be activated in time to accommodate the victims."
"That's right." Zhao Wenzheng said, "Xiao Aiqing, you are in charge of the household department, and you will personally lead the people of the household department to supervise the affairs of the disaster relief grain, and there must be no corruption." ”
Xiao Feiqing said: "The minister obeys the order." ”
Zhao Wenzheng said: "Yang Aiqing, you immediately gather the armies from all over the country and immediately set off to go to the various gaps in the Yellow River to fight floods and provide disaster relief and build embankments. ”
"Commandment."
"Bachelor." Zhao Wenzheng said, "You and Prince Zhong stayed in Beijing and led the overall situation. ”
Yu Ruyan stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen asks for a decree to leave Beijing." After the flood, fearing that it would cause a plague, Weichen asked the emperor to allow the minister to lead some of the doctors of the Tai Hospital, together with the doctors of the medical hall in the capital and the nearby state capital, to the affected places. ”
"The scholars are thoughtful, and after the flood, there will be a plague." One minister said, "Although it is not the height of summer, the plague may have a greater impact than a flood, so it is better to deal with it carefully." Moreover, it was almost the middle of winter, and I was afraid that the victims would starve and freeze, so it was indeed necessary to send imperial doctors. ”
Zhao Wenzheng said: "The university scholar is reasonable, I will order the Tai Hospital to select the Tai Doctor, and bring some medicinal materials with him. In addition, the state capitals were instructed to send people to the disaster area with medicinal herbs. ”
After the next dynasty, the East Nuan Pavilion is also full of people, all of which are new reports and disaster relief matters from all over the country.
It wasn't until the last three watches that the East Warm Pavilion quieted down. Yu Ruyan asked to see her, and although Zhao Wenzheng was tired, he also held on to her spirit to call her in.
"Scholar, what's going on at the hospital?" Zhao Wenzheng asked.
Yu Ruyan replied: "The Tai Hospital has already selected people, a total of five Tai Doctors, and they have also arranged the medicinal materials to carry, and they have already begun to prepare. The four major medical centers in Beijing also sent three doctors and medicinal herbs to set off with us the day after tomorrow. ”
"That's very good." Zhao Wenzheng said, "Scholar, disaster relief is hard, you must take care of your health." ”
dragged his tired body back home, and saw Tang Yun lingering at the door from a distance.
"Master Tang, why are you here?" Yu Ruyan asked.
Tang Yunluo said: "I came back so late!" The flood of the Yellow River has made the university scholars very busy, right? ”
"Yes, when the flood occurred, people were displaced." Yu Ruyan's eyebrows tightened, "The day after tomorrow, I will take the people from Tai Hospital to the disaster area." ”
Tang Yunluo shook his head and sighed: "Alas, the bachelor who serves the country and the people is really tired. ”
After speaking, he shook his head and returned to Yunfu, making Yu Ruyan confused. However, Yu Ruyan didn't have the energy to think about him, so she went home and fell asleep.
The next day, after a day of preparation of medicinal materials, 17 doctors from Tai Hospital, folk pharmacies, and medical centers were ready to set off.
In the early morning of the third day, under the leadership of Yu Ruyan, a medical team went out of the city.
Outside the city, Tang Yunluo was waiting there.
"Tang ......" Yu Ruyan just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Tang Yunluo.
"University scholars are helping people in disaster relief, and I don't know if they can work in the future?" Tang Yunluo blinked and smiled.
After Yu Ruyan smiled at the imperial doctors behind her, she stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Why did you come with you?" What are you doing? ”
Tang Yunluo replied in a low voice: "I also know medicine and medicine, wouldn't it be better for me to go with me?" ”
As soon as Yu Ruyan was about to speak, Tang Yunluo said loudly: "My lords, you went to the disaster area to save the people from fire and water regardless of the danger, and you admire it in the next ten thousand points." Tang is not talented, and he is also a little skilled in medicine, so it is better to take Tang with him, so he can help you do some modest help. ”
"Now that the situation in the disaster area is unknown, there is no harm in bringing an extra helper."
"Yes, scholar, since this Tang Gongzi took the initiative to ask Ying, then let's take him."
Everyone behind him agreed that Tang Yunluo would accompany him, and Yu Ruyan couldn't say anything.
After getting on the horse, Yu Ruyan glanced at Tang Yun from time to time, this guy has been ghostly, what is he going to do!
"The scholar has been watching the bottom, do you like the top and bottom?" Tang Yunluo joked with a smile.
The few people behind had already laughed, Yu Ruyan glared at Tang Yunluo fiercely, Tang Yunluo still smiled cheekily: "Scholar, have you forgotten what I told you below?" Isn't it a waste that a blind man can't see such a precious eye, and you use it to stare at me? ”
Yu Ruyan slandered: I'm too lazy to pay attention to you.
Day and night, we arrived at the most severely affected northern corner.
When they arrived in the disaster area, they saw that the fields had been washed away, all the houses had collapsed, and the people could only live in the Yizhuang and the tents temporarily set up by the imperial court. Seeing such a situation, Yu Ruyan's nose was sour, and her tears couldn't stop falling.
Tang Yunluo saw her crying, he couldn't bear it, walked over and handed her a handkerchief, and said, "It's useless to cry, it's better to do something." ”
Hearing him say this, Yu Ruyan also felt reasonable, instead of crying here, it was better to take action quickly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, could you please check the situation in the vicinity to see if anyone has any signs of the plague?" Yu Ruyan said, "I'll go to the government and negotiate the situation of other local doctors." ”
"Yes, the next official will go right away."
Tai Hospital, with other doctors, went to various counties and towns in batches to check. Yu Ruyan and Tang Yunluo went to the home of the governor of the north corner to coordinate medical matters. The holy decree had already been sent quickly, and the north corner already knew that it was necessary to arrange doctors, medicinal herbs, etc., so as soon as Yu Ruyan found it, the governor had already allocated the medical points of the various state capitals in the north corner.
"Is there an open warehouse to release grain?" Yu Ruyan asked, "Is there enough food in the north corner?" ”
The governor said: "Scholar, I have ordered all prefectures and counties to open up for grain distribution, which is enough for the time being, and the folk gentry, temples and other places have also spontaneously opened porridge factories. ”
Yu Ruyan breathed a sigh of relief: "Great, now that there is a porridge factory, there will also be a medicine factory next to the porridge factory, ready to distribute some ginger soup, mung bean soup, etc." ”
"Yes, I'll arrange this."
Yu Ruyan then asked, "Your Excellency, may I ask where is the hardest hit in the north corner?" ”
The governor sighed: "It is Beiguang Province in the Hetao region, where the situation is the most serious. ”
Yu Ruyan sighed: "I think it's better for me to go there in person." Your Excellency, I'm sorry for you here. ”
"We are the hardest hit here, and I don't know what about the other state capitals." The governor sighed.
Yu Ruyan said: "Many officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs of the DPRK have already gone to other state capitals, and I believe they will deal with it." ”
"Okay, I'll arrange a fast horse and send someone to send the scholar to Beiguang Mansion." The Governor said.
Yu Ruyan said resolutely: "No need, Lord Governor, you better deploy your troops and step up the construction of fortifications, I will go by myself." ”
