Chapter 113: The Victims of the Outbreak
"My conditions are very simple." Xi Duyun replied with a smile.
Gu Jianglin looked at her and motioned for her to continue.
……
The subordinates sent Gu Jianglin and Xu Buzhi away.
Qi Lichen held Xi Duyun's hand, his eyes affectionate: "Actually, you don't have to be like this. ”
The conditions she had for Gu Jianglin just now were really something that Qi Lichen didn't expect.
"I'm not here for you." Xi Duyun pouted, "I'm doing it for myself." ”
"You." Qi Lichen sighed helplessly, but his heart became heavier and heavier.
In his life, I'm afraid he won't be able to escape from this girl's side.
The sun is slanting at dusk, the breeze is not dry, even if time stands still, Qi Lichen thought that he was willing.
A few days later, word spread that the flooding in Yanzhou City seemed to be under control.
On the Jinluan Palace, a long-lost smile appeared on the face of the emperor who had been solemn for a long time: "Okay, good, worthy of being my good son." ”
There was news from Yanzhou City, saying that Gu Jianglin had come up with some way, and led his subordinates to dredge the lakes on both sides of the river overnight, and now, it was only a matter of time before the flood was dredged, and now, what Gu Jianglin was waiting for was the appropriation from the imperial court.
As soon as the allocation arrived, the tents were set up to give porridge, and the poor victims naturally had a place to go.
"Your Majesty, I heard that the flooding in Yanzhou City has been controlled, but now the victims are begging everywhere, and some of them have entered the imperial city, and the emperor has to make a decision as soon as possible."
An old minister stepped forward and played.
Weichen seconded.
"The minister seconded the proposal."
There were constantly people who agreed with the old minister's words, and the emperor's face sank, not because the old minister was unhappy with what he said, but just thinking about how to deal with the victims this time.
Every year, the victims are the most difficult to deal with, and the slightest mistake can cause public outrage, as in previous years, fortunately, none of them got seriously ill, so as not to threaten the safety of other people.
However, this year, due to the great flooding and the delay for too long, the victims were displaced, and now they have been banned in the imperial city.
The ministers waited for the emperor's words.
However, the emperor threw this question to the prime minister: "Prime minister, in your opinion, how should the victims of disasters in this place be dealt with?" ”
The prime minister who was named was stunned.
Everyone held their breath and waited for the prime minister's answer.
After thinking for a moment, the prime minister said slowly: "Back to the emperor, the minister thinks that since this disaster came from Yanzhou City, experienced floods and died, it is very likely that some of them have already contracted a slight plague, of course, nothing could be better." ”
"These people should be isolated, examined by the doctor, and if there is no abnormality, they should leave on their own, and if there is really a plague, they should be healed as soon as possible, without delay."
However, the prime minister's words fell on the ears of the emperor, but they were nonsense.
There is a flood every year, and the people who pour in from the place are isolated in this way, and basically there is no effect, and the prime minister has said a lot, as if it is useless.
"Still." The prime minister paused, and then said, "If this method is useless, the minister has a plan." ”
The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Let's hear it." ”
"We should bring them all back to Yanzhou City, distribute supplies, and let them stay in Yanzhou City......"
"Okay, okay, you don't have to say it, I understand what you mean." The emperor stopped what the prime minister said next, apparently not daring to be interested in his methods.
The prime minister was silent and retreated to his place.
The prime minister didn't have anything to do about this kind of thing, but when the emperor asked like that, he had to say so much nonsense. What he has to do now is to clean up the things that covet his treasures in this Jinluan Palace.
And this possible outbreak of the plague is an opportunity. Baixiao
The emperor did not understand his thoughts, and looked up to ask the other ministers, but in the end no one came up with a feasible way.
In the end, it was the Minister of Imperial History who brought the six princes in Yanzhou City who carried the bucket, and the emperor remembered that Gu Xizhou was also responsible for this matter.
Since Gu Jianglin has controlled the flood, the other half of the victims will naturally be managed by Gu Xizhou.
Thinking of this, the emperor quickly asked Gu Xizhou to draw up a holy decree, asking him to settle these victims within a month, of course, not only the victims in Yanzhou City, but also scattered to other places.
The matter of the flood was assigned, and the rest were all trivial, and the old eunuch beside the emperor saw that the ministers had nothing to play, so they wanted to shout "Retreat from the dynasty." ”
However, at this moment, next to the side hall, a guard unloaded his sword and ran to the emperor's ear to say two words.
The emperor's face, who was about to retire from the court, suddenly changed.
"Really?" He asked the guard.
The guards naturally did not dare to deceive the emperor, and nodded seriously.
The Emperor waved his hand and motioned for him to step back.
The ministers looked at each other, puzzled by what had happened.
The emperor had a calm face, sat on the dragon chair, didn't say a word, looked at the ministers and was shocked, and they didn't dare to say more.
After a while, the emperor said slowly: "Liu Wen came to report that a large number of victims suddenly poured into the imperial city to loot in various shops, and some even injured people in order to eat. ”
Liu Wen is the commander of the Imperial City Guards, and since he sent someone to report, he naturally can't be wrong.
"This, how can this be, in the imperial city, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, these people can also be presumptuous." Some ministers could not believe that these ordinary people could be so presumptuous.
"That's not true." I don't know who whispered, "If you die, what will you care?" ”
People who have been tormented by hunger and cold for more than ten days only think about finding food and clothing every day, and if they don't have these things, they will have nothing to live at all.
Who would be afraid?
Horizontal and vertical are all dead, it is better to fight once, there is still a glimmer of life.
"Xia Zhengke?" The Emperor spoke suddenly.
The ministers, who were whispering, closed their mouths and bowed their heads in silence.
"The minister is here." Xia Zheng, who was dressed in a red official uniform, slowly walked out of the crowd, he was from the second grade Jingzhao.
"You take people to the Imperial City and control that group of people for me, but don't hurt anyone, if they are still stubborn, they will be fed." The emperor gave the order.
Xia Zheng frowned, he never thought that this unlucky errand would fall on his head.
"Yes." He trembled and responded.
It is not a good errand to deal with these radical victims, the emperor also told him not to hurt people, Xia Zheng has a headache, since this disaster victim dares to spread wild at the feet of the Son of Heaven for a little food, how can he be afraid that he knows from the second grade Jingzhao.
I'm afraid that when the time comes, the reason will not be successful, and the fight will start, how can I not hurt people.
Xia Zheng's bad luck is a happy thing for the prime minister, who will let it, this Xia is the party of the six princes.
As long as this matter is secretly adding a little bit of chaos and arousing the anger of the masses, it is a matter of the people, how can Zhaoguo, the emperor who loves the people like a son, sit idly by.
When the time comes, whether Xia Zheng's Jingzhao's black gauze hat can be kept depends on himself.
Thinking like this, the prime minister's mood instantly improved a lot.
Sure enough, three days later, Xia Zheng was given a copy by the prime minister's party.
The reason is naturally that Xia Zheng despised the emperor's order, used bad means against those victims, and even injured people, which was completely spread by the people, but there were still brave victims who directly united with other victims to throw things at the gate of Xia Zheng's Jingzhao Mansion.
For the excitement of the crowd, the emperor naturally could not sit idly by and directly handed over the matter to the inspectors.
And the inspector's right envoy is the person who was planted there by King Mujun.
