Chapter 7: I'm terminally ill
Matsudaira guards the residence of Zhang Wei.
At this time, the decree issued by Lu Cheng had already been passed to Zhang Wei.
Matsudaira Taishou Zhang Wei had a headache, he didn't really want to help Liaoyang County. He is not an ambitious person, so he doesn't really want to seize the opportunity to get the merit of rescuing Liaoyang County, and then get promoted and raised, and go to the peak of official life.
It takes a lot of effort to relieve Liaoyang County! And he, Zhang Wei, just wants to retire. He felt that guarding his own one-third of an acre of land, being a soil emperor far away in the sky, and being a thief was free. Every day, I drink a little wine, listen to a small song, and push official business to my subordinates, no case, it is a small banquet in three days, a big banquet in five days, and I am happy like a fairy. It's a beautiful day!
But he's already received the decree, so he can't pretend he didn't see it, right? If someone from the court comes to investigate, and he doesn't do anything, it will be a big crime.
Then he will be removed from office, investigated, and sentenced to exile. Thousands of miles away, Matsudaira's environment is already difficult enough, so isn't the place where he was exiled to drink blood? Matsudaira Taishou Zhang Wei was very frightened just thinking about it, and he could only reluctantly help Liaoyang County.
He sent the task down, and then he had to take the time to keep an eye on it, otherwise his subordinates would make too much money, resulting in poor relief, and not only would the credit be lost, but he might also have something to do. It's too hard for him to do this!

Qingtian County, Liaoyang County.
The goose-feathered snow is still falling mercilessly, as if it wants to bury the different colors that Qingtian County has been exposed to the last time, leaving only a piece of white.
Liaoyang Taishou Luo Jun looked at the horse, he looked at Qingtian County, which was almost in ruins not far away, his face was very ugly, and he asked his subordinates: "Is this the county that has been most severely affected?" โ
Qin Yuan, the commander under Luo Jun, replied: "Back to Taishou, the front is the most severely affected county in the county, called Qingtian. โ
Luo Jun's brows tightened: "Qingtian County has been so badly affected, the houses have collapsed seventy or eighty percent, I'm afraid the relief food is not enough......"
Commander Qin Yuan also sighed: "Yes, there are not many relief materials sent by Songping County next door. And there are many counties in the county that have been affected by the disaster, and if you distribute the already small amount of materials, there are not many materials in each county. Liaoyang is sad this winter! โ
"No matter how sad you are, you have to work hard to get by, go to the county seat, and see the specific situation." With that, Luo Jun galloped towards Qingtian County.
Commander Qin Yuan and his guards hurriedly followed.
In Qingtian County, the county magistrate Peng Yuan has not slept for a day and a night, the dark circles under her eyes are full of presence, and her tired expression can be seen by everyone, her clothes are full of wrinkles and dust, and she has no time to change into new clothes that are clean and clean.
Peng Yuan, the commander of Qingtian County, is leading his servants to search for the people who are still alive under the rubble.
At this time, Shen Sanbai, the old official who was left in the mansion by Peng Yuan, was already out of breath.
Shen Sanbai ran over and over again and shouted loudly: "Ming Mansion, it's too guarded to Qingtian County!" Whew-huh-huh-Mingfu, where are you? Whew, Mingfu, it's too guarded to Qingtian County-"
At this time, Wan Xiaolou, a servant beside Peng Yuan who was particularly sensitive to his voice, said to Peng Yuan: "Ming Mansion, Lao Shen seems to be calling you?" โ
"Really?" Peng Yuan looked around suspiciously, looking for Shen Sanbai's figure.
At this time, Shen Sanbai had already seen Peng Yuan, who was standing up straight and looking around.
Shen Sanbai suddenly felt that there was another inexplicable force transmitted to his limbs, he accelerated and ran towards Peng Yuan, waving his hand to make Peng Yuan notice him, and raised his voice and shouted: "Ming Mansion, it's too guarded to Qingtian Countyโโ"
Peng Yuan heard Shen Sanbai's shout, she turned to look at the source of some sounds, and finally found Shen Sanbai.
Shen Sanbai ran to Peng Yuan's side and said anxiously: "Ming Mansion, it's too guarded to Qingtian County." Taishou is waiting for you at the government office now! โ
Peng Yuan was overjoyed, if she was too guarded, could the relief materials be far away?
Although Peng Yuan was in a hurry to rush back to the mansion, the search and rescue work could not be stopped. So she ordered: "Wan Xiaolou, you organize the brothers to continue the search, and Shen Sanbai will meet with me." โ
Wan Xiaolou is an old fritter, he has a lot of experience and knows a lot. He thinks the same as Peng Yuan, he is too guarded, and the relief materials must be arriving soon.
Wan Xiaolou replied with a smile: "No." โ

At the same time, there was already a story in Kyoto about the emperor and the people angrily attacking Liu Yushi.
The largest restaurant in Kyoto is the Drunken Night Building, and in the Drunken Night Building, a storyteller is spitting all over the place.
"Last time, Liu Yushi questioned that there were too many disaster relief funds allocated today, and today wisely exposed Liu Yushi's selfishness."
At this time, a guest said: "What selfishness does Liu Yushi have, I didn't hear it last time, you can tell me a little about it!" โ
The guests who also didn't hear it last time all coaxed: "Yes, you can tell me, we don't know what selfishness this Liu Yushi has." โ
Mr. Storyteller saw that many guests said that he wanted him to talk about Liu Yushi's selfishness, and he naturally planned to conform to the public's wishes.
"Okay, since the guests want to hear it, then I'll talk about it! This Liu Yushi is a person from Jiangling......"
Time flies very quickly in the story of Mr. Storyteller.
Soon, Mr. Storyteller talked about the scene when Lu Cheng stood up to speak: "I saw that Jinshang suddenly stood up and swore firmly to the hundred officials, saying that he would rather lose countless money and materials than lose a people's heart!" All the officials were impressed by Jinshang, and said in unison: 'Holy mercy! "But he is unmoved, worried about the victims in Liaoyang......"
The guests were listening with relish, but they were awakened by the sound of the storyteller banging on the desk.
The storyteller continued: "What is the disaster situation in Liaoyang? What kind of beneficiary order has been issued today? Let's listen to the next breakdown! โ
Naturally, the guests were not happy to be hung with their appetites. But no matter how noisy the guests were, they couldn't keep the storyteller.
When the guests saw that they were no longer retaining the storyteller, they began to discuss it in groups.
"If you want me to say, this Liu Yushi is not a thing, Your Majesty is right, what did Your Majesty say, what is not, what is competing to be the first?"
A guest next to him reminded: "You don't have the heart of the world, and you compete to be the first to reap the benefits of your hometown." โ
"Ah, yes, yes, that's it......"
The guests were having a lively discussion.
In the story, Lu Cheng is an absolutely positive character, and Liu Yushi is the villain who was slapped in the face. And the people are good guides. Lu Cheng felt that to create a great and righteous image of the Son of Heaven, it was necessary to accumulate bit by bit, and to imperceptibly influence the publicity.
The storyteller left after speaking, and after leaving, he entered a private room, where the green doctor was waiting.
The storyteller hinted to the green doctor: "Green lead, look at my ......"
"I can't owe you!" With that, the green doctor threw a purse containing broken silver to the storyteller. Then he handed him what he needed to say next, and said, "Tomorrow I will tell him what I want to say!" After finishing speaking, I still came here to receive the reward. โ
The storyteller weighed his purse in one hand and what he was going to talk about tomorrow in the other, and left the private room with joy.
The green doctor was still in the private room at this time, and she took out an identical purse and waited for the arrival of the next storyteller.
In the Flying Frost Hall of Daming Palace, Lu Cheng was having a headache about who to send to relieve the disaster.
Zhu Hong recommended Qian Xun from the Ministry of Industry, while Xie Yun recommended Fang Bin from the Ministry of War. The two Zai Zhi were arguing, but Li Yu could only play Tai Chi.
Qian Xun of the Ministry of Industry was very helpful for post-disaster reconstruction, but he lacked courage to suppress some of the ghosts that emerged after the disaster.
Fang Bin of the military department is bold and ruthless enough not to let emotions overwhelm reason, and it is best to suppress the ghost after the disaster, but he has no idea about post-disaster reconstruction.
If Qian Xun and Fang Bin are allowed to go together, they will always have to be divided into two sides, right? So who is the chief envoy and who is the deputy envoy? After all, both of them are capable people, and capable people are often arrogant, repulsive of the same sex, and no one obeys anyone.
When Lu Cheng was having a headache for the disaster relief candidate, the Queen Mother sent a message to Lu Cheng and asked Lu Cheng to have dinner with her at night.
Lu Cheng stared at the little eunuch sent by the Queen Mother to deliver the message for a long time. Lu Cheng stared at the little eunuch's heart, and he wondered if he had done something wrong just now?
This was Lu Cheng's inspiration, and she thought of a way to break the game. yes, why didn't she think of that just now? The Queen Mother! The marriage between the Gao family and the Xie family!
Lu Cheng waved his hand to let the little eunuch back down and said, "I know, you go back and tell the Queen Mother, I will arrive on time." โ
Then Lu Cheng instructed Wei Zhongxian: "Big companion, pass on the three ministers to the Taiji Hall from time to time. โ
"No."
Not yet, inside the Taiji Palace.
The three of them walked side by side, and they naturally thought that Imakami must have determined who would be sent to the disaster relief.
Li Yu did not recommend candidates, he was naturally the most relaxed.
And Zhu Hong and Xie Yun are heavy-minded. Who did you choose? In case no one is chosen, and you appoint your own people......
Zhu Hong and Xie Yun thought of going together, and the two glanced at each other and reached a consensus. Either or the other, no one else.
Therefore, to put it well, there are no eternal friends and no eternal enemies in the world, only eternal interests.
Lu Cheng was waiting for the three rulers in the Taiji Hall early.
Lu Cheng saw the three rulers walk into the Taiji Palace, first asked the three rulers to sit down, and then did not talk nonsense, and said bluntly: "The three Qing families are my arms, and I will not go around in circles with the three Qing families, and the selection of the three Qing families has been decided, that is, Gao Xuan, the son of the Chengze Hou Mansion, the nephew of the Queen Mother." โ
As soon as Zhu Hong heard it, he knew that the consensus between him and Xie Yun was about to be overturned.
His youngest daughter Xie Yun will marry Gao Shizi.
Xie Yun is likely to support it, the Gao family and the Queen Mother will definitely support it, Li Yu's old fritter will not object, plus the emperor mentioned it, then it must be biased towards Gao Xuan as a positive envoy...... He, Zhu Hong, was defeated.
Sure enough, Xie Yun fell into a long silence. Li Yu continued to sit on the wall, what else could he Zhu Hong say? He can only be silent, so that he can look better on his face
Lu Cheng saw that none of the three chief ministers objected, which was equivalent to acquiescence, so he continued: "Gao Xuan is the main envoy to study and experience, and the person recommended by Zhu Qing and Xie Qing is the deputy envoy to assist the main envoy, and give more advice to the main envoy. โ
The meaning in these words is to let the deputy envoy take charge, and let the envoy Gao Xuan lie down and brush up on his merits.
Xie Yun heard that the person he recommended could serve as a deputy envoy to provide disaster relief, and the chief envoy was still his quasi-son-in-law, so he naturally agreed.
And Zhu Hong thought that he had lost completely this time, but he found that the peak was turning around, so he naturally agreed.
After all, people usually think that the idea of opening a window is acceptable after blocking the idea of demolishing the roof.
Zhu Hong and Xie Yun both agreed, and Li Yu naturally agreed.
The only problem now is that the Queen Mother doesn't know yet, but Lu Cheng plans to tell the Queen Mother when she has dinner with the Queen Mother today, and judging from her understanding of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will definitely happily agree.
"I'm so good, if even being excellent is a disease, there's no doubt that I'm terminally ill!"
