Chapter 349: Sin Doesn't Cause Death?

Even though the bigwigs in the court wanted to break their heads, they couldn't figure out what was going on with this snow disaster-

At first, the heavy snow did not stop for several days, until the forbidden army and the box army began to enter the city to clear the snow, and the heavy snow did not mean to stop at all.

It stands to reason that such a big snow can almost bury the entire Bianjing City in the snow. The capital city of Bianjing is the same as the capital of previous dynasties, because of the restrictions of various factors such as the city and the size of the population, so that its own grain is not very much, and it basically has to rely on external imports.

What's even worse is that even if there is enough grain in the Changping and Reserve Warehouses, the government can't immediately deliver this grain to the people. If you look at the scale of this snow disaster, even if you don't freeze to death of 10,000 or 20,000, you can freeze to death 7,000 or 8,000 people.

Moreover, a major disaster is usually followed by a major epidemic, and even if the snow disaster is not as good as in summer, the impact should not be underestimated, and the slightest carelessness can be a big chaos.

However, the strange thing is that this snow disaster was quelled quietly, not only did it not cause any disaster, but it made the people of Bianjing City believe in the official family and the forbidden army even more. Even the ministers of the court also made a wave of presence in this snow disaster operation.

Just like Wang Shiyong, the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture.

Although Wang Shiyong also likes to sing and dance and visit the Qinglou on weekdays, but in this disaster relief operation, Wang Shiyong once again rushed to the front line with the officials of Kaifeng Mansion, whether it was distributing materials or arranging the people, they did an impeccable job, and the official reputation among the people was very good.

If it weren't for the fact that some of the grain in the Changping warehouse was missing, it would be even more perfect - Wang Shiyong originally had a big wave of presence in this disaster relief activity, and the promotion and salary increase in the coming year was already a sure thing, but it turned out to be such a thing......

Wang Shiyong is very troubled, Wang Shiyong is very angry.

Kaifeng Mansion originally had a lot of, but as a result, a large number of officials of all sizes were arrested by the Imperial City Division, and he might not have to eat melons with him, if Wang Shiyong's mood can be good, then it will be a ghost.

But Wang Shiyong is not the only one who is in a bad mood.

In fact, the bigwigs in the court, as well as Zhao Huan, the emperor, are far more troublesome than Wang Shiyong.

Where the hell is the food?

Yushitai, the Imperial City Division, and the Dongji Factory teamed up to investigate, and it was not difficult to find out where the grain went, and soon found out how the grain disappeared and where it flew.

But because I found it clearly, I was troubled.

To be able to unconsciously let tens of thousands of stone of grain disappear, no matter who is outside, they must definitely collude with the officials and officials who are in charge of the Changping and Reserve Warehouses to do it.

And starting with these officials and petty officials, it will soon be possible to find out who is colluding with them. Then follow this line step by step, and what finally surfaces is the truth of the matter.

Someone contributed money, someone contributed, someone was responsible for making suggestions, someone was responsible for specific actions, and under the collusion of several groups of people, there were 30,000 stone of grain in the Changping position in Bianjing City and flew out of the Changping position.

And the reason why these people chose to start at Bianjing's Changping is because these people feel that Bianjing is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and the possibility of suffering disasters is almost none, even if tens of thousands of stone grains are missing, no one will find out.

Even if the government has to take stock twice a year, it's not a big problem - as long as there are tens of thousands of stones of grain in the regular closing warehouse before the inventory, wouldn't it be safe? Buy some stale grain and mix it with sand, it's a little meaning.

It's just that what these people didn't expect was that there would suddenly be such a blizzard in Bianjing, and Zhao Huan, an official, would use Chang Ping as soon as possible, so that the big guys didn't have time to buy old grain, let alone mix sand.

Therefore, this time it was planted on such a snow disaster, which can only be said to be providential.

"30,000 stone of grain is related to the safety of the capital and the life and death of hundreds of thousands of people in the capital, if I appease them, I still have the face to say that I am the emperor who was appointed by the heavens?"

Zhao Huan glanced at the large and small officials in front of him, and said with a sneer: "I told the Queen Mother and her old man that someone must be shaking the foundation of my Great Song Dynasty, so the heavens will send snow disasters to warn me." Now, it seems, that's not the case. ”

"Don't try to persuade me."

"The people all know that the prince broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people, don't you understand?"

Gu Kecheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Li Gang and other bigwigs glanced at each other, and in desperation, they still bowed down and said: "Qi Guan family, these people are indeed guilty of Ling Chi, but according to the law of the "Eight Discussions", these people are ......."

Zhao Huan laughed, knocked on the table with his fingers, and said: "Zhu Jun, the cousin of the queen's family, and the title of knight, according to the discussion of relatives and nobles, the crime will not lead to death." ”

"Luo Cheng, he was knighted with military merits in the southern and northern wars, and he is not guilty of death."

"There is also Kong Fanzheng, according to the discussion of the virtuous and the guest, the same crime will not lead to death."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Huan simply stood up, paced around the table, and only spoke after reaching Gu Kecheng's body: "But I just want to ask." ”

"The people...... Is it damned? ”

"Even if it's me, the emperor, I don't dare to say that the ancestors of all generations are rich and noble, and the ancestors of the Qing and other ancestors are all noble and noble? There have been no civilians for generations? ”

As soon as this sentence came out, whether it was Gu Kecheng or the other bigwigs in the court, they all felt very painful.

This is like a dimensionality reduction blow, and it doesn't give people a chance to speak at all - who dares to say that their ancestors are unspeakably expensive? Besides, even if your ancestors are unspeakably expensive, this kind of thing is not suitable to talk about now.

It hurts.

However, the theory of "Eight Discussions" is also in the "Great Song Law".

That's right, when the bigwigs revised the "Great Song Law", they once again perfectly played the lazy political psychology of not delaying the big guys to sing, drink and visit the Qinglou, except for some of the content of the laws that Zhao Huan had deliberately emphasized before, the rest simply copied "Tang Law Discussion" again.

In other words, when Zhao Huan didn't think about it, and the big guy perfectly ignored it, "Eight Discussions" was also perfectly inherited into "The Law of the Great Song Dynasty".

What's more, even if there is no content of the "Eight Discussions" that has not been inherited in "The Law of the Great Song Dynasty", this empty warehouse case is not so easy to deal with - this case involves not only Luo Cheng, a lord, but also the queen's cousin, who is also a lord, and also involves another key person who is very difficult to handle.

The one who picks the head is the one who will not die according to the sage and the guest of the council.

Or to put it more bluntly - the Chai family's face is not as big as his family!
