Chapter 371: Don't think about it anymore

Shun County and Qing County, these two counties in this period of time, can be called the existence of the dead city.

If you stay in the city for a day, you can get sick. If you get sick, you will die, and if you want to escape, the city gates have been sealed. People looked at the gray sky in despair, and their souls were numb day by day. Not only are there many dead people in it, but also because the hearts of the people here are dead. They don't see the hope of life, and they themselves can't get out of death. Corpses were everywhere, and the air of death was everywhere.

It wasn't until half a month ago that these numb people finally ushered in salvation. On that day, the sky became more and more gloomy, and people's hearts became more and more desperate. At this moment, there was a loud bang, and a large hole was broken through the sealed city gate. A heroic and dashing general with soldiers. and the arrival of a large number of medicines.

Under the man's orders, the soldiers moved quickly.

The dead were burned and the living were treated. Someone gave them a bath with medicine and gave them a drink. Someone washed their laundry and sanitized their dwellings. Someone came to teach them how to protect themselves in the midst of the plague......

Then, they suddenly found out. The corpses that could be seen everywhere are gone. The wails that can be heard every day are gone. The dirty road is now clean and clean, and you can smell the fragrance of medicine everywhere.

People eat well and dress cleanly. The numb face also turned into gratitude and hope.

They survived.

They survived!

Hahaha, woowoo...... People laughed and wept when they laughed. They survived, but their relatives died. Why didn't these people come earlier, and if they had come earlier, would they have survived?

But they are not people without conscience. They knew that because these people came, they had a chance to survive. They are grateful, but they feel uncomfortable. So, let them cry!

After crying, they began to inquire who had saved them. What kind of person is that fairy-like general? At this time when all the officials in the city fled, they were not afraid of the plague and went deep into the dangerous place to save them from fire and water.

They were all taken aback.

It turns out that that's not a general, that's a saint today!!

Although the Holy One only showed his face at the very beginning, he never reappeared again. However, the topic of the emperor never left them.

As early as a month ago, the emperor sent a large amount of medical grain and grass, but it was polluted by corrupt officials. The emperor was very angry when he heard this, and personally brought food and medicine to the disaster area.

I also heard that some people wanted to rebel, which is why they were almost trapped in the city. The purpose is to deceive the emperor out of the city...... On the way up, the emperor was chased and killed by assassins all the way, and he almost died several times, but he still insisted on rushing to open the city gate for them.

Also heard. The emperor was assassinated and wounded. The emperor brought the wounded to collect medicine to save them. Now it's even more important to go from one city to another...... And condolences to the people and soldiers. The injuries on his body have not healed yet.

Those who escaped, and the officials who trapped the people of Shun County and Qing County in danger, must also be arrested.

All kinds of rumors quickly spread among the people. The emperor's prestige reached a new peak for a while, and no one has been able to match it ever since. What's more, he set up a tablet for the emperor at home, and burned incense three times a day.

The hearts of the people who were previously turbulent because of the earth and the plague were instantly calmed.

Until those corrupt officials were escorted back, paraded in the streets, and beheaded. People's reverence for the emperor has reached a certain height. There are even some people who funded together to build the Holy Emperor Temple and shape the golden body of the current emperor. Let the world serve him, and from then on, the emperor was called the Holy Emperor among the people.

At this time, Lechen, who had solved this big mess, finally came to return to Beijing.

On this night, Le Chen wrote a letter to the seven scenes in the capital as usual. He wrote: "I realized that the people were so kind and so easy to forgive their previous mistakes. They did not blame me for the death of their loved ones. I just did something so simple, and they are so grateful...... I seem to understand why in the history books, every Ming monarch is people-oriented. It really makes sense to love the people like sons.

As the time of separation became longer and longer, the longing for his wife became stronger day by day. Although he seemed to be methodical, only he knew how rushed he was in this matter. A lot of the action seems rough and ruthless.

Zhuge Qingyun, who came with him this time, had persuaded him that too many people had died this time, and there was no need to shed more blood.

But he didn't listen at all. This time, almost all of the people who committed crimes in front of him lost their lives. The difference is only that they are lost, or they are connected to their families, or even the nine clans. The difference is only, how to die.

His reasoning was to give an explanation to those who died in vain. My mercy is not an umbrella for them to be traitors. The truth is only, he doesn't want to waste time. I want to give those ghosts a deterrent, either they will not show their feet for the rest of their lives, or they will die.

Sure enough, after he killed a group of people, those small actions were much less. Things are moving faster! As for the respect of the people after killing those people, it was a windfall.

Anyway, the matter was settled, and it was resolved quickly.

"The next thing here is to be handed over to Qingyun. I have almost killed those who have committed great crimes. For the rest, if Qingyun wants to spare their lives, it is okay to open the side, but the eyes of the people have been watching. You can judge at your discretion. ”

"Yes." Zhuge Qingyun immediately bowed down in response. Fu thought of something again, couldn't help frowning slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, how should the children of those officials be dealt with now?" Let them go back? ”

Thinking of that group of people, Lechen's face couldn't help but look difficult. He ordered these people to be sent over to serve, but these people couldn't hold up the wall like mud. There are even some people who hold themselves beautiful and actually come to seduce him.

So angry that he almost killed someone on the spot.

"A bunch of waste, let them go back, and continue to feed them with people's fat and people's ointment?" Snorted coldly, "Isn't the disaster area going to be rebuilt, and it will serve for ten years." After a pause, he added: "The daughter of the Fang family and the Li family has served for twenty years." "The daughter of the Li family of the Fang family is the one who seduced him before.

Zhuge Qingyun smiled secretly, "Yes." However, there are a few who are too young to be afraid of being inappropriate. ”

Le Chen glanced at him: "I didn't expect that Qingyun's heart was getting softer and softer. ”

If it was an ordinary monarch and minister, Zhuge Qingyun should kneel down at this time, saying that he was afraid. But at this time, Zhuge Qingyun just smiled: "Whoever calls the minister has a son, although the minister's child will not teach such a talent, but in the end, he is more tolerant of the child." ”

Le Chen took a sip, and he also became a father. Thinking of Xiao Qi's letter, his Xiao Qi directly asked his two-year-old son to face such a bloody scene. Looking at these again, one by one, the children who have been raised with gold and dignity, not only is he not benevolent, but his killing intent is even stronger.

The sons of the emperors are not so expensive, why should others? My heart was even more unhappy, and the eyes that looked at Zhuge Qingyun were also a little unkind: "Qingyun, I remember that the Academy of Literature in Beijing is preparing to expand its enrollment. ”

Zhuge Qingyun said that he couldn't keep up with the emperor's topic at all. But it didn't prevent him from continuing with the emperor's topic at all: "Back to the emperor, the minister also heard about it." ”

Le Chen smiled and narrowed his eyes: "Looking at these waste-like children of the official family, I am very worried. If the next generation of Han officials are all such waste, then who should govern the future Han Kingdom? Rely on this waste? ”

Zhuge Qingyun was stunned for a moment, indicating that he understood a little: "What does the emperor mean?" ”

"I didn't expect that these officials of mine are not only not good officials, but also poor in teaching children...... It's my fault. ”

"What does the emperor want?"

"Since they can't teach children, I'll find someone to teach them for them. Passing on my will, all officials above the sixth rank, whose children have reached the age of four, are all sent to the Wenwu Academy to be taught. ”

Zhuge Qingyun twitched the corners of his mouth, and he was not surprised at all. "Yes, the minister will immediately draw up a decree and inform the world."

"Well, of course, I can't be too kind to these official children. The children of other people's families, if they have a heart, can also be sent in. "Lechen is satisfied, my emperor is so hard, naturally I have to let people accompany my own emperor." Speaking of which, the Qingyun family seems to have a six-year-old boy, right? ”

Zhuge Qingyun was depressed, why did the emperor focus on his family: "Back to the emperor, the minister's eldest son is just six years old." ”

"My emperor has been a little lonely lately."

"What does the emperor mean?"

"It's time for my emperor to choose a companion to study, I think the child of the Qingyun family is just right."

"Thank you for your appreciation."

"Then it's decided."

Lechen is very satisfied, and in the future, his son's team can be chosen and cultivated from an early age. Lechen happily wrote the good deeds he had done into letters. Of course, I didn't miss the news that I would be returning to Beijing early tomorrow morning. After writing the letter, it was immediately sent out overnight.

The people knew that the emperor was leaving, and before dawn, they stood in the middle of the road.

When the emperor came, he was silent, and a few people rode a few times. When I went back, I was wearing a guard of honor. The people sent each other off on a flat road, knelt down a few streets, and the mountains were long lived. Everyone burst into tears and was full of gratitude.

is as cold as Lechen, and there are some feelings in my heart.

When you are an emperor, you should be like this.

…………

In Beijing, the situation of Qijing at this time is not good.

Qikang is sick.

She is very careful, the entire capital, the whole city is under martial law, and the palace is closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. But sometimes, you can't prevent it.

All the applications in the palace have to be purchased from outside the palace. Eat rice grains and sparse fruits...... All the best and freshest ones are used in the palace, and every day or two, you have to go out to buy them.

As a result, just three days ago, the palace first began to get sick from the purchase. In just two days, more than a dozen of them were sick. Until this morning, Qi Kang was also sick.

It's the plague, exactly the same as the plague in the southwest.

And the source of the disease was also found, and when he was outside, he bumped into a dirty person.
