Chapter 19 Killing Chickens and Monkeys
The herald was an unknown eunuch chamberlain. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Pei Min has never seen it either.
However, this inner servant trembled, without the slightest rampant of the Heavenly Envoy.
Han Zhuang's death sounded a wake-up call for those rampant chamberlains, making them realize that some people can be offended, and some people can never afford to be offended.
Pei Min is obviously the latter.
The chamberlain read the edict respectfully and handed over the edict of appointment to Pei Min.
Yuan Luqian, Li Linfu, Su Qi and others on the side were stunned: the Jiedu envoy added the inspection envoy. What a concept!
Especially Li Linfu, in his heart, he felt that Pei Min's actions this time were no different from looking for death. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't leave his body now, he would have the idea of leaving.
Where did I think, it's only been a few days! Pei Min actually took a step forward, and it was a big step, mastering the military and political monopoly power in the entire territory of Longyou.
What Li Linfu had in his eyes was just shock!
Looking at the edict in his hand, Pei Min himself was a little shocked, the military and political dictatorship, the power of life and death of the entire Longyou was given to him like this, and let him hold it in his hands.
This trust, this burden!
Pei Min's eyes lit up with flames, and he asked, "Where are Wu Hua and Tong Hao worshipping the sky?" ”
"On the banks of the water!" Suki immediately responded.
"Take me!" Pei Min didn't know where the Huangshui was, but the Huangshui was an important tributary of the upper reaches of the Yellow River, flowing through the canyon and basin, more than 300 kilometers, and he didn't know where the details were, and he didn't want to waste time looking for it.
Yuan Luqian asked: "Brother Pei, is this a plan?" ”
Pei Min sneered: "They have the courage to calculate me, is it possible that I, the envoy of the festival, have not the courage to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys?" Lead the way! ”
Suki struck a stirring spirit and honestly walked ahead.
Shoot the first bird!
This is the law of officialdom for thousands of years, and once something happens, the first person to come forward often dies the fastest.
And at this moment, Pei Min, in the heart of the Twelve Prefectures of Longyou, is almost equal to the stupid hat.
Droughts are natural disasters, and locust plagues are natural disasters.
It doesn't matter whether people can fight well or not.
The important thing is that natural disasters are incapable of being enemies, even if Longyou is destroyed by drought and locust plagues, these have nothing to do with them.
There will be no stain on their political achievements.
Natural disasters, how can human beings match?
In the face of this situation, it is not good to do it, but it is wrong to do it.
Especially Shanzhou Assassin Shi Wu Hua and Shanzhou Governor Shi Tonghao.
The two of them are a bit old-fashioned and antique, and they take the power in their hands very seriously, and they don't want outsiders to interfere in their affairs.
Pei Min helped them open a canal as a military general, and in their opinion, instead of helping, he rushed to attack them.
Originally, in the year of the great drought, it was a great merit to protect part of the fertile soil and ensure a part of the harvest, and the credit was received by their side. Now they have to give half to the military, and they don't say it on the surface, but they actually care about it from the bottom of their hearts.
As for Pei Min's opening of several more ditches with the help of the Longyou Army, they will not calculate this point.
Before the drought had passed, the plague of locusts had returned.
Pei Min appeared in front of them again, and he had the intention of interfering in government affairs.
This time, Pei Min had no will, and he couldn't ignore it, and Wu Hua didn't want to listen to it.
As for Pei Min's kick, it also made Tong Hao, the governor of Shanzhou, firmly remember it in his heart, and he sued the royal complaint, and also came up with a trick for Pei Min's "self-defeat".
He said to Wu Hua: "Pei Min shook the sky with manpower, it is really unwise, we can use it to enhance our fame, and through his failure, we can achieve a lifetime of wisdom." Pei Min exterminated the locusts, and there was almost no chance of winning. The result will only become more and more miserable, and even if there are no Longyou particles left, it has nothing to do with us. It was Pei Min who didn't know the height of the sky and tried to win the sky with manpower, which caused the wrath of the locust god to have this result. And we lead the people to pray day and night, and everything we say and do is in the eyes of the people. At that time, the entire people of Shanzhou all thought of our goodness, but they hated Pei Min for destroying their homeland. The people are resentful together, see how he ends. ”
Wu Hua hesitated at the time: "What if, what if he really succeeds?" ”
Tong Hao answered without hesitation: "Obviously, we sincerely prayed for blessings and led the people to move the heavens, what does it have to do with Pei Min who made up the killing?" Whether it succeeds or fails, we are the ultimate beneficiaries. ”
In order to make this plan, Wu Hua and Tong Hao also have good intentions and pay a lot, not to mention buying three animals and high incense in their own pockets, and kneeling for most of the day, only drinking water and not eating, full of scenes.
When Pei Min rushed to the shore of Huangshui, Wu Hua and Tong Hao were reading out the sacrificial text to tell the heavens.
The rhetoric is moving and beautiful, and Wu Hua is also very engaged.
Just when he begged for mercy from God, Pei Min stepped forward loudly and said, "If God knows mercy, how can there be a drought from heaven and a plague of locusts?" It is really hateful and shameful to be a dignified state assassin in a state that bewitches and confuses the public in front of the public. ”
Wu Hua's righteous devotion suddenly made Pei Min interrupt so mercilessly, and shouted: "Pei Jiedu, you are killing in Longyou, causing disasters to be everywhere in Longyou. This thorn can't control you, and I will pray to heaven for the sake of Longyou. If you don't help, it doesn't matter, but you still mix and make trouble, what are your intentions? ”
As soon as his voice fell, the surrounding people talked about it, looking at Pei Min's eyes with a lot of unkindness, but he was a little confused.
It was because Pei Min recaptured the Jiuqu Land in Hexi and recaptured the Stone Fort City that Shanzhou was spared from military disasters.
The people have not forgotten this kindness.
Kindness and dissatisfaction clash with each other, and they don't know how to look at it.
"What a big hat!" Pei Min heard this, which further confirmed the speculation in his heart, and sneered: "When the disaster comes, you Wu Hua is in the position of assassin history, you are immoral and incompetent, and you don't try your best to stop the disaster, but you are bewitching the people, leading the people to sit and wait for death, and it is ridiculous to have a good word." ”
As soon as his voice fell, Tong Hao on the side immediately said: "Natural disasters are God's punishment, and only by cultivating virtue can they be eliminated." Pei Jiedu, a military minister, only knows how to fight, kill, and kill, so he naturally doesn't understand this truth. ”
Pei Min said senran: "You said that natural disasters are punishments, and only cultivation can avoid locust plagues. Does it mean that the locust plague is caused by the lack of virtue, do you mean that the saints do not cultivate virtue? ”
Tong Hao's face changed greatly.
The goal has been achieved, Pei Min didn't give the two of them a chance to speak at all, and said in a loud voice: "Come on, Shanzhou Assassin Shi Wu Hua, as a Shanzhou parent official, encountered a disaster, and did not make any effort to solve it, but prayed to God, incompetent, stripped off the official hat and court clothes, and removed the position of the assassin history." Shi Tonghao, the governor of Shanzhou, as the assassin of Shi Zhuo, followed the nonsense, and also alluded to the saint's immorality, ill-intentioned, and unforgivable, so he was removed from all positions first, put in prison, and waited for his fate. ”
Wu Hua and Tong Hao were instantly furious.
Wu Hua even shouted: "The old man is the third grade of the dynasty, why should you go to my official position?" ”
Pei Min said indifferently: "Just rely on the identity of the envoy of the right section of Longyou and the envoy of the inspection, is it enough?" ”
