When the person with the highest status in the world was working in the ruins with him, constantly moving out the things that could still be used, and digging up the remains of the people buried below, everyone couldn't believe it, was this still the emperor who had not been in court for more than a year?

Whether you believe it or not, Wanli, Zhu Yidao and the wolves are working hard with the victims. Wanli's fat body was even more sweaty, but he resolutely rejected Zhu Yidao's proposal to let him rest for a while. Is it easy for me to finally repair my image in front of the public? The dragon robe was already stained with a lot of dust, and he didn't care, wiped the sweat on his head with his dirty hands, and continued to work hard.

Zhu Yidao's psychology was like a stormy wave. Is this still the Wanli you are familiar with? Maybe I don't know what an emperor thinks in his heart, but there should be many benefits to being able to let him get in touch with the people and understand more about the people's sufferings?

At this time, many officials have already gotten the news that the emperor is out of the palace! I also worked with the victims in the rubble! Thinking about what they have done these days, those officials who were born as scholars can't help but feel ashamed. Even the emperor who has not been in the dynasty for more than a year can do this, and he boasts that he has read it for half his life, where have he read it? It seems that I am expected to be Ming Zhongxing! If an earthquake can wake up the emperor, I can also put my heart at ease, right?

So many officials began to spontaneously put down their shelves and rebuild their homes with the people, but there were still some nerds who told the cabinet that the emperor did not need to do this, the emperor was the son of heaven, how could he work so hard with the untouchables? He only needs to stay in the deep palace compound honestly and accept the worship of all the people. Regarding these remarks, Shen Shixing did not report them, but he did not publish them. Zhu Yidao knew about this, and scolded with a sneer: "These people's saints have all read into the dog's belly!" ”

Under such circumstances, the situation in Jingshi suddenly improved. The famous phrase "rebuild the homeland" has been widely spread by everyone, saying that this earthquake is a wake-up call from heaven to the Son of Heaven and asking him to be kind to his people. Those who took advantage of the fire to rob have also converged a lot. It's just that the price of rice is still high and scary, and it seems that there are still people who don't take the emperor seriously. The wolves reported this to Wanli very early, saying that the price of rice in Jingshi had reached more than a dozen cars and one stone, Wanli smiled and waved his hand: "Let them continue to run rampant for a while!" When the time comes, let's settle the ledger together! ”

Even with Zhu Yidao is famous. He resisted the five decrees in a day, just for his wife who didn't pass through the door. This was said to be a good thing among the people. It's just that the controversy is huge, and the nerds say that he is disrespectful and violates the emperor's trust; And those people who have lost their relatives think that Zhu Yidao's behavior proves his true temperament, how can a person who doesn't even care about his own wife be a good official? Although he is a brocade guard and has not read anything, his actions prove that this brocade guard is not not all evil!

In fact, Zhu Yidao didn't know that he could escape this catastrophe, and he completely relied on the help of Concubine Zheng to speak. When Wanli jumped to his feet in the palace and scolded Zhu Yi, Zheng Guifei happened to come to report Wanli's safety. When she heard that he was furious because Zhu Yidao resisted disrespect, Concubine Zheng smiled. When Wanli was a little calmer, Concubine Zheng respectfully bowed to him to the end: Congratulations to Your Majesty, it is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty and the blessing of the emperor to have such a courtier. Wanli still said angrily, what is the blessing?

Concubine Zheng Guifei said softly, only the emperor's sage can make the courtiers who visit xom below really think about His Majesty. If Zhu Yidao doesn't care about his wife and children, but only cares about the emperor, this can only show his hypocrisy and ambition. How can such a person be an official? So what will he do with the people?

Wanli suddenly realized, even said that the concubine knew something, otherwise wouldn't he have made a big mistake?

The situation has improved dramatically, and the reconstruction work is on the right track thanks to Shen Shixing's painstaking efforts. The household department readily agreed to the decision to allocate a large amount of silver taels for post-disaster reconstruction, not because the conscience of the people in the household department was discovered, but that Shang and the left and right servants were buried deep under the ruins, and the person in charge was gone, and Shen Shixing could promote the person who listened to him to sit on the stage.

In fact, the losses of the other six ministries and cabinets, as well as local officials, were also huge in the earthquake, and many families died, so that the vacancy of official positions has increased, to the point that it has begun to affect the normal operation of the state apparatus. This gave Shen Shixing a headache and Wanli a headache. I had no choice but to ask Shen Shixing to recommend and recommend to see which people were more senior and more capable, and first made up for the cabinet to maintain the normal work of the cabinet. The matter of the six ministries can be talked about until the imperial examination is over this year.

The 5,000 people brought by Zhu Yidao have begun to cooperate with the people to carry out rescue work on behalf of Wanli. The reason why Baiguan is so obedient to Wanli this time, and the people are so supportive of Wanli, has to start from what happened when Wanli left at that time.

When he had fought hard in the ruins until the third day, one of the prisoners of the country, crying and kneeling before him, begged the emperor to stop this behavior immediately and let him take his place. Wanli is not angry, how old are you? Just because you want to replace me? But the prisoner grabbed the hoe in his hand and didn't let go, so he had to let go of his hand, and let the nerd with thin arms and legs grab the hoe and dig up in the rubble. At this time, Zhu Yidao also persuaded that it was better to focus on the overall situation, after all, this is not a place to stay for a long time, Wanli left the ruins dissatisfied, and muttered back Although he has been in power for many years, he has not done anything, but he still enjoys it very much, and the admiring gaze of the people. Only in this kind of gaze can he enjoy the feeling of being an emperor Compared with those officials who are full of food and have nothing to do and only know how to scold, Wanli feels that the people are still very good.

At least he is better than the official himself.

Before he had taken a few steps, the surrounding victims already knew that Real Madrid was leaving, so they all consciously threw down the tools in their hands and ran to the side of the road to see him off. That scene made Wanli unforgettable in his life.

The people of the city, who knelt on both sides of the cleared streets, spontaneously bowed to him and saw him off. Wanli felt that his vanity was most satisfied: this is right! But at the same time, he was also thrilled, how long had it been since he had seen such a scene since he reigned? Especially in the past few years, he is tired of the endless political struggles of hundreds of officials, and he has never seen such a scene when he hides in the deep palace.

But when he walked to his eight-carried sedan chair, Wanli looked back at the people again, remembering that he had ignored state affairs and political affairs all these years, and a sense of guilt surged in his heart.

His legs slumped, and he slowly knelt down in front of the countless peoples.

This kneeling is incredible!

First of all, the wolves and the right sergeants guarding the side, when they saw that the emperor knelt down, they also quickly knelt down and let the emperor kneel in front of the people alone, aren't they looking for death?

Followed by those stunned officials, is this still the emperor in his mind who only knows how to eat, drink, and play with women in the harem? Believe it or not, now hurry up and kneel along!

This matter spread like a whirlwind throughout the Ming Dynasty: the emperor knelt down to all the people because of the earthquake! This not only did not damage Wanli's image and the emperor's prestige, but also deepened his favor in the minds of the people. For a while, everyone seemed to have forgotten that the emperor had not been in court for more than a year. The officials had no choice but to collectively silence it, as if nothing like this had happened. There are still some nerds, crying bitterly at home, and the mountain calls the emperor Shengming!

Zhu Yidao didn't have time to think about that, he was busy commanding the army, burying the dug up bodies on the spot, and then spreading a thick layer of quicklime on the surface, while counting the death count, the more he calculated, the more his heart sank. In this earthquake, the casualties of the soldiers and civilians in Beijing reached nearly 200,000! A considerable number of corpses could not be dug up, and hundreds of thousands of people were maimed! Do these people care? The newly promoted squire of the household department shook his head expressionlessly, and he couldn't take care of it. If you control the dead, you can't control the living, and vice versa. At present, more than half of the inventory of the household department has been used, and a part must be kept to ensure the daily expenses of the imperial court and the income of officials.

Then we have to find a way to avoid the epidemic of the plague, and let the people drink boiling hot water and maintain good living habits! Zhu Yidao shouted loudly, but the new waiter sneered and shook his head, Lord Qianhu, just make sure that you don't get sick! There are so many dead people, where can they be managed?!
