Luo Yan quietly listened to one courtier's attack on him after another. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Whether it is planting a blame or concocting a crime, Luo Yan always has a calm face, but there is no calmness in his heart at all.

If there was something in his heart at the moment, anger was the only answer.

Unexpectedly, in this case, some people only care about attacking themselves, but they don't care whether their methods are useful or not. If it is really selfish, its heart can be punished. But all the people who came out to accuse him of being utilitarian were all remembered by him. Originally, Luo Yan didn't have a utilitarian heart in this matter at all, on the contrary, he was ready to be disadvantaged.

But such a heartfelt piece is framed, and the reason is even more unfounded. How can this keep him from holding grudges.

He doesn't have a utilitarian heart, but he has a grudge heart because of this.

After listening to a large group of people who either fell into the well or tried their best to oppose it, and in the end, basically everything that could be said was finished, Luo Yan stood up as if he had just woken up, bowed to Li Shimin, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has three questions, I want to ask the princes in the hall." If you can answer them all, I will say nothing, and I will obediently accept the guilt and return to my homeland. But if you can't say it, then you still need to give me an explanation. ”

What's the explanation? Everyone knows that Fang just said a bad thing about others, and if he doesn't refute it at this time, how can it be Luo Yan's style.

Although Li Shimin didn't want Luo Yan to make a big deal out of it. But he didn't stop all kinds of slander from everyone before, and if he stopped Luo Yan at this time, it would inevitably make Luo Yan unconvinced. If it's someone else's business, that's it. But now the stakes are high, and if you don't listen to Luo Yan now, you can. In the future, if the situation is serious and you have to use other people's methods, you will not lose all your face.

"Just ask." In desperation, Li Shimin could only say with a bitter face.

"Dare to be you, the so-called Son of Heaven, what is the righteousness?"

This also needs to be asked, the Son of Heaven, is not the Son of Heaven. Since the Han Dynasty, the name of this Son of Heaven has been called like this to show orthodoxy. Now even if Li Shimin's throne is not right, who dares to talk nonsense.

Although he knew it, no one dared to respond. Looking at the silent court, Luo Yan said to Pang Fengcheng with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Fang Cai Pang Shilang is brave to take the lead, and he will not be left behind at this moment. How about Pang Shilang answer this question? ”

Although I don't know why Luo Yan asked this question, I still feel a little bad in my heart. At this time, hearing Luo Yan ask him to answer by name, Pang Fengcheng could only bite the bullet and say: "The Son of Heaven is naturally the Son of Heaven." The upper should be providential, and the lower herd Li Shu. ”

Pang Fengcheng replied with extreme flattery, but this is also a Confucian recognition of the Son of Heaven, so it can only be said to be decent. If he said it more vaguely, or if he touted it a little more, Luo Yan would have to work hard to embarrass him. For the sake of prudence, he said such a standard answer. "Then I'm embarrassed." Luo Yan thought secretly in his heart, but his mouth was not idle.

"Then, since the princes said that this locust plague is a natural disaster and the will of heaven, the will of the people cannot be violated. I don't know if this opening a position for disaster relief is in accordance with the will of God, or is it acting against the sky? ”

"This, this ......" In an instant, not only Pang Fengcheng, but even those who vigorously opposed Luo Yan's statement were dumbfounded by this sentence. The catastrophe was originally a punishment, so opening a position for relief can indeed be regarded as against the sky. But if you don't give alms, then the will of heaven will be good, and people's hearts will be reversed. There is simply no solution to this problem.

Luo Yan set his eyes on Pang Fengcheng and continued to ask, "Pang Shilang, what do you say?" ”

"Heaven has the virtue of a good life." There was no way, Pang Fengcheng could only squeeze out such a sentence from between his teeth. Originally, I wanted to fool the past with such words, but where would Luo Yan let him go.

"Since relief is virtue, isn't it virtue to eliminate insect pests in advance so that the people will suffer less disasters?"

Under the fierce pursuit and fierce fighting, where did Pang Fengcheng still have the same spirit as he accused Luo Yan at that time. Cold sweat broke out from his forehead, and his body, which was originally slightly chubby, kept shaking at the moment. was actually forced into a blind corner by Luo Yan with three questions. Say that the emperor is not virtuous enough? Or is it that the heavens will descend on the Si people? An answer that is too nonsense will not satisfy Luo Yan at all, but will attract more criticism.

Pang Fengcheng closed his eyes for a while, lowered his head but stopped talking.

"In that case, do you want to give me an explanation? Pang Shilang, during the Wang Shi, Li Yushi ...... "read a lot of names, and each of them was said to be utilitarian." While the ministers were surprised by Luo Yan's perverted memory, their faces were also a little embarrassed. Especially those who were named by name, their faces were even more red at the moment.

"Luo Yan, you are taking revenge for personal gain." These people who are speechless can only reframe a crime and put it on Luo Yan's head. Apparently disappointed, though, Royan did admit: "I did take revenge. But don't you make it clear what you maliciously framed first? Sneering, Luo Yan was not afraid of making things big and suffering himself.

After listening to Luo Yan's words, these people's faces turned blue for a while. Although Luo Yan's official rank is not high, he was accused of malicious framing in the court, how much of a crime is this?

"Okay, okay, don't fry anymore. These people who just read the name of Luo Yan will be fined for one month. As for Luo Yan, although there is a reason for the incident, but you are very selfish, and you will also be fined for one month. As for the extermination of locusts, it was decided. Today, the province of Zhongshu will spread the word to Gyeonggi, and do not order all parts of Gyeonggi Province to follow the law that Luo Yan said. In addition, outside Gyeonggi Province, local prefectures and counties should be kept under watch, and if there are signs of locust plagues, they should be dealt with immediately according to this law. ”

got the result he wanted, and Li Shimin was quite happy in his heart. From Luo Yan's detailed theory of exterminating locusts, he found that if he did exactly what he said, the effect would be extraordinary.

didn't promise Luo Yan anything more, at this time Li Shimin waited to see what kind of situation would be in various parts of Gyeonggi a month later.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, in the midst of a retreat, dispersed with complicated feelings. Tian Jiaozhong was suddenly called to the court meeting, and he also encountered such a painful thing, and the ministers said in their hearts that there was nothing unhappy, it was absolutely fake. Luo Yan's three questions at that time made many people confused. What is going on with this natural disaster?

Fang Xuanling walked over with a little dark complexity, and asked Luo Yan, who was still standing there: "Come in, what do you think of your three questions in your heart?" ”

Fang Xuanling's words represent the voices of many people, and they can't wait to know the answers to these questions. Therefore, the bodies that were about to leave stopped one by one and stood there quietly waiting for Luo Yan's answer.

"Droughts and floods are natural disasters, but various prefectures and counties build water conservancy projects every year, and the household department uses this as an aspect of evaluating the performance of officials. The locust plague is also a natural disaster, so should we sit helpless and wait for death? In my opinion, anything that is detrimental to life and society is called a disaster, but it is nothing but evil, and where can it still represent the will of heaven. Birth, old age, sickness and death are all providential, so it is against heaven for us to seek medical treatment when we are sick. In this way, providence is just urging us to live better. ”

Feeling the narrowness of the vision of this era, Luo Yan said that Fang Xuanling was a little dizzy. But he understood the truth, and with a look of sudden realization, he patted Luo Yan's shoulder, and said with a smile: "I am a few decades old, but I don't have the transparency that you can see in this posterity." You are right, anything that harms the life of Li Sheji is evil. Now, we will fight against this plague of locusts. ”

Everything pays attention to a teacher and is famous, and this major event of exterminating locusts is just based on what Luo Yan said. Since then, no one has dared to say that the locust plague is providential.

Lantian County.

Chen Yuru has had a very hard time in the past two days. After listening to Luo Yan's suggestion, he didn't think much about it, so he issued a document according to the instructions, informing Sili and Eight Towns that they must do what the document says. In order to ensure that this matter can be carried out as much as possible, he even borrowed Luo Yan's name and told the people that Luo Yan came to tell him in the starry night.

However, he was too optimistic. It is true that the people love Luo Yan. However, hundreds of years of belief in God have completely overshadowed the trust in Luo Yan. Although every day there is news of how many buckets of locust eggs have been picked out in various villages, or how many fields have been raked with iron rakes. But when I really went to the field, I saw where there were traces of movement on the land. The previous report was completely foolish.

Some stubborn old men said: "The locust plague is a disaster from heaven, where can a hairy boy like Luo Yan understand." Don't resist, just bear it. Such words reached Chen Yuru's ears, and he was so angry that he was like thunder.

At this moment, how he hoped that there would be more sensible people in Lantian County. This matter of partiality was only done by him and Luo Yan, and he never got anyone's consent at all. Originally, it was possible to forcibly apportion this matter by relying on labor and alms, but without a formal document ordering the control of locusts, he did so. Seeing that there were more and more locusts in the field, Chen Yuru was anxious.

On the third day after Luo Yan left, Chen Yuru sat in the government office in a depressed mood. Just as he was about to go to the countryside again to persuade those stubborn old peasants to exterminate the locusts, he suddenly heard someone outside say that there was a document from Beijing.

Although I don't know the contents, just coming from the capital is enough to make Chen Yuru pay attention to it. After the post guard presented the paperwork, Chen Yuru signed the receipt and sent someone to give the post guard some reward, and then went into the house to open the document to check.

"Hearing that there are signs of locust plagues in various parts of Gyeonggi, the prefectures and counties are specially ordered to strictly deal with the ...... in the following ways" The payment was impressively the official seal of the Ministry of Households. Chen Yuru shouted hello, and the bitterness of the past few days was swept away.

Walking out the door with the paperwork, I heard him mutter, "Now I can finally let go of my hands and do this." (To be continued.) )
