Chapter 155: Cremation of the Body

glanced at Li Zhi and Wu Mei with grievances, they are worried about the country and the people here, but the two giants of the top sky are still full of interest and joking about themselves here?

"I've seen Your Majesty, Auntie. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Hey, your title, next time remember to participate in Your Majesty, followed by Niangniang." Li Zhi joked with Helan Minzhi with a smile on his face. Wu Mei smiled at the corner of her mouth without saying a word, and her eyes were full of playfulness.

"Yes" In desperation, he had to start anew and give a new salute: "See Your Majesty, Niangniang." ”

"Hahaha, okay, get up? How anxious are you to come to see me in such a hurry, and to dress yourself up like this? ”

Looking at Li Zhi's unserious look, Helan Minzhi didn't know what to say twice when he opened his mouth. This atmosphere is not right, what does this make him say?

"Okay, okay, Your Majesty, just be serious and wait for the listener to finish." Wu Mei smiled and shook Li Zhi's hand. After saying a word for Helan Minzhi, he barely became serious with a straight face. After casting a grateful look, Helan Minzhi became very serious.

"I wonder if Your Majesty saw those corpses outside the car?"

Hearing that he was going to talk about this, Li Zhi suddenly stopped smiling. After all, this involves so many human lives, and they are all his people, although it is said that he did not cause it, but where can he laugh.

"I saw it, and as soon as I got out of the gate of Jiucheng Palace, Lu Laoguo reported it to me. This time, a flood broke out in the customs area, which is rare in a century, and I don't know how many people were killed or injured. There's really not a lot on the road. ”

Listening to his words, He Lanmin subconsciously lowered his head. He had never seen so many dead bodies outside the car, and he thought that this was already all the casualties, but he didn't expect that it would be a big deal after all.

"Although the grass people know that they don't know what they should inquire about, but I don't know if there is a charter in the court to deal with the bodies of these deceased people?"

There were a total of five people in the carriage, Li Zhiwumei, Wang Laifu, Xiaoyizi and Helan Minzhi. Naturally, he is not afraid of anything, since Helan Minzhi wants to know, Li Zhi does not hide: "The imperial court has a charter for disaster relief, but it is mainly for the living." For these deceased people, there are too many of them to be found by relatives. It won't be long before the magistrates will find someone to dispose of the bodies. ”

Knowing that someone was providing disaster relief and that the imperial court had its own charter, Helan Minzhi was relieved. But this was obviously to be expected, and what he wanted to hear was still ambiguous.

"I wonder how long it will take?"

"I really don't know about this. But I don't think it will take long, right? After all, if you leave the corpse on the road, I'm afraid it won't take long for it to rot, right? "It's the little things, or the details. On weekdays, there is naturally no need for the emperor to worry about it, Li Zhi doesn't know, it's really normal.

Helan Minzhi was about to say something, but Wu Mei suddenly retched to the side, almost throwing up. Li Zhi hurriedly stepped forward and patted her on the back, and Xiao Yizi handed her a mouthful of water.

"The concubine listened to what His Majesty said to him, the corpse was rotten, and she couldn't help it. Please don't blame Your Majesty. Wu Mei's face was still a little wrong after retching, and she felt a little better after drinking water.

"Okay, well, I won't say anything. The son is too, this is in a hurry to run over, and it will make your aunt disgusting? was complained by Li Zhi, Helan Minzhi was in a hurry in his heart. I haven't finished saying this yet, this...

Hard-nosed: "Yes, it's not good, but this... I still want to finish talking to Your Majesty. ”

"Say? Can your aunt vomit twice in this body? Don't say it. Li Zhi's face was serious, and his tone couldn't help but bring three points of anger, so frightened that Helan Minzhi didn't dare to speak.

Wu Mei looked at him, and then at Gaozong. Gently tugged at Gaozong's sleeve: "Your Majesty, Zhi'er is not a person who talks about the river, if he wants to say it, there must be a reason." You might as well listen to it. It's good for the concubine to endure a little this time. ”

Or Wu Zetian's overall concept is stronger, or rather, Wu Zetian trusts himself more.

"Then you say, if there is no one, two, three, four, don't look at your young age, it disgusts your aunt, and I can't spare you." Although he said it harshly, his tone was gentle. Li Zhi glared at him and waved his hand.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Aunt Xie." After regrouping his emotions, Helan Minzhicai continued: "Now this road can be said to be full of corpses, and you can see it all over the eyes. Moreover, the weather is gradually getting hotter, and the scorching sun is in the sky, and I am afraid that these corpses will not decompose tomorrow. And once the corpse decomposes in the open air, the stench is gone. I've seen in a medical book that this corpse exposed in the open air may produce a poisonous gas, a foul smell and will produce... Pestilence. ”

He bit the word plague to death, and deliberately emphasized and highlighted the consequences. Because he knew that in the Tang Dynasty, even the emperor was afraid of the word plague.

Sure enough, the two of them almost changed color in an instant after hearing this. Li Zhi's eyes narrowed: "I remember, it was still in the Zhenguan period, and someone once wrote to the first emperor for disposing of corpses. But at the time, it seemed to be because of the war... The plague was mentioned. ”

"That's right, I'm afraid, all the adults in the state, the government, and the county love the people like children. Focusing only on the people who are still alive, and ignoring the people who have died. When things go wrong, there's no way to regret it, Your Majesty. ”

Hearing Li Zhi's words, Helan Minzhi was slightly disappointed and also knew that the ancients could also realize the serious consequences that would be brought about after so many corpses decomposed, although he was not the first person, but he could be regarded as thinking of it.

"Wang Laifu!" Li Zhi solemnly called the old eunuch beside him.

"Yes, everybody."

"Passing the decree, you can send 800 miles to Chang'an with Lu Guogong Zhijie. Please ask the eldest grandson Taiwei and Li Sikong to choose people, and be responsible for disposing of the corpses in the entire pass along the road, and the local government will fully cooperate. ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen suggests that if you can, it is better to choose cremation."

"Well, I've heard that if cremation could remove the threat from the bodies of many potential people. It's a pity that this sudden flood made these people unable to settle in the ground. ”

"Your Majesty's kindness is a blessing to all the people!" Anyway, Li Zhi realized the seriousness of this matter, and he didn't have to pay for the horses, and there were benefits to patting more, who wouldn't be able to learn it.

"Wang Laifu, you can pass on my will to Lu Guogong and ask him to do it quickly. It is impossible to dispose of all the corpses in the gate before noon tomorrow, and there must be no mistakes. ”

"Yes!" (To be continued.) )
