0070: The Great Plague of the World

In May 181, the Xianbei generation of male lord Tan Shihuai died of illness, and his son He Lian succeeded to the throne. This is obviously earth-shattering news for Xianbei, but for the Han Dynasty, it is great news. Because of the defeat of the Xianbei war over the years, although the Han Dynasty did not lose anything, its control over Wuheng in the northeast, the Qiang in the northwest, and the Xiongnu in the north obviously began to weaken.

After the news reached the northern counties and the imperial court, many local generals and sergeants and doctors went up one after another, hoping to carry out a northern expedition to shock the Han Tianwei, and more importantly, let the other Hu people know that the Han is still the same big man, and if he is not honest, he will be beaten.

But in this regard, it seems that because of the fiasco of the last tentative attack, Liu Hong, Emperor of Han Ling, was not too interested in attacking Xianbei, and at this time, more scholars and doctors in the court were still focusing on wooing the new relative He Jin.

Just last year, Liu Hongli voted He Yan as the queen, and because of this, He Yan's father He Zhen was directly worshiped as a marquis, and his mother was also admitted to the palace and named a Wuyang Jun. But the most important thing is He Yan's eldest brother He Jin and second brother He Miao, He Jin rose all the way to Henan Yin, and He Miao also followed He Jin's ass all the way to inherit his brother's official position.

Everyone knows that as long as He Yan continues to be favored, it is only a matter of time before He Jin, as a relative, is reused and even reaches the peak of power, so even if he was just a butcher before He Yan entered the palace, these scholars and doctors had to bend down to make friends with him.

However, it is not only the scholars and doctors who are fighting for He Jin, Zhang Rang and other eunuch groups are also eyeing He Jin, because in their opinion, He Jin, who was born as a butcher, is obviously better than any of his previous relatives. And not only He Jin, but also his brother He Miao and even Queen He are the objects they woo.

"Actually, it's okay, Helian is only about 20 years old, although he is the designated heir of Tanshi Huai, but the other people in power may not be convinced. If there is a sudden war, it will force those who originally had dissent to join forces with Helian. Li Yi analyzed.

Although he didn't know whether Helian could do it or not, there was nothing to find fault with such an analysis. I have to say that it is a bit too conservative. But after this matter was sent to the court by Du Zhan, it was appreciated by Liu Hong. As he didn't want to fight, he obviously liked this analysis that sounded very reasonable, if it weren't for the persuasion of many scholars and doctors because of his young age, I am afraid that Liu Hong would be overjoyed and would directly transfer Li Yi to serve in the court.

Time passed, and soon, the news from Xianbei proved Li Yi's guess. Helian, as the heir of Tanshi Huai, is indeed quite unpopular. This situation made Emperor Ling overjoyed, and sent people to Wuyuan County to praise Li Yi fiercely. Because of this, Li Yi's name once again left a deep impression on the eunuchs and scholars in the court. But this time, it is no longer as a disciple of Huangfu Gui and Zhang Huan.

"What? Master, he ......" Li Yi looked at the three people in front of him in shock, obviously a little caught off guard by the news.

"Zikang, don't be overly sad, this is the letter that my father asked Zhi to pass on to you before his death." Zhang Zhi said in a deep voice that he was Zhang Huan's eldest son, and the two beside him were his second brother Zhang Xu and third brother Zhang Meng.

endured his grief and unfolded a simple strategy, but Zhang Huan hoped that Li Yi could live up to the expectations of him and Huangfu Gui, use his talents to serve the court well, reject the Hu people in the north, and benefit the common people in the world. Finally, I also hope that the protagonist can let Zhang Zhi and the three settle in Jiuyuan.

"Alas, Master's ......" Li Yi sighed and looked at this simple policy, he could see that Zhang Huan had no strength when he wrote this letter, but even so, Zhang Huan still insisted on writing this letter to himself.

Subsequently, Li Yi helped Zhang Zhi and the three of them settle down in Jiuyuan County according to Zhang Huan's request. However, after a while, he found out why these three people had come here.

"Alas, Zikang doesn't know, Zhi is obsessed with calligraphy, and my second brother is the same, but the court always wants to recruit us two brothers, it's really annoying." Zhang Zhi said.

For this statement, Li Yi naturally complimented him, but he had some broken thoughts in his heart, and there was naturally no problem with liking calligraphy, but no matter how good calligraphy was, he couldn't cure the country and retreat from the enemy. It's just that although he thinks so, he still comes to ask for calligraphy when he has nothing to do, because whether it is Zhang Zhi or Zhang Xu, the characters are ...... Especially in cursive, even Cai Yong feels ashamed.

Light and 5 years, February 182. One thing that made Li Yi helpless happened again, that is, the pandemic.

"According to the news, there have been epidemics of varying degrees in Jizhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Yuzhou, and Yangzhou." Du Zhan said like stagnant water, and after speaking, he couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, why? Let my Han Dynasty have so many disasters and difficulties?! ”

Hearing this, everyone sighed helplessly. Not only the pandemic, but I don't know what year it began, all kinds of natural disasters occur every year, droughts, floods, plagues, locust plagues, earthquakes, etc., even in Beijing, there are many disasters year after year.

It is like the first year of Yuanjia, in 151, when the emperor was still Emperor Liu Zhi of Han Heng, in that year, Jingshi first suffered a severe drought, and then there was an earthquake in November, and then another earthquake occurred in January and October of the following year. Then in 154 there was an earthquake, 155 years of famine, 156 years of earthquake, 157 years of locust plague, 158 years of locust plague, 159 years of floods, finally in 160 years of stability, in January 161 there was an epidemic, in May there was rain and hail, in June earthquake, and then in 162 years began to give away natural disasters once a year or even several times.

For this reason, the imperial court has changed the three dukes in various ways, but it is useless, and all kinds of amnesty in the world are still useless. Even for this reason, Liu Zhi found many Confucian scholars, Taoist priests, monks, and people who didn't know who they were to find a solution, but in the end, even the emperor was changed from Liu Zhi to Liu Hong, but it was still useless.

In Li Yi's eyes, this situation is also quite unbelievable. If there are all kinds of natural disasters in various parts of the world every year, Li Yi thinks it's nothing, after all, the territory of the Han Dynasty is so large, isn't it normal for there to be a disaster somewhere every year? But the problem there is ...... Li Yi can only use "really fucking evil" to make a conclusion.

Although as a traverser, Li Yi should use science to argue various issues, but the situation in Luoyang is obviously not a scientific category, at least, it is not a scientific category that Li Yi can understand.
