Chapter 375: Mutual Restraint

The days passed uneventfully for another three days. In the past three days, Qing Yuran has not visited the door, and Ji Qingyao has not come over again, which makes Luo Yi very quiet for a while.

Three days later, the whole capital rioted.

There are two reasons for this.

One is the news that the second prince can't be humane, I don't know who poked it out, and now it has been compiled into a nursery rhyme, which is being sung on the streets and alleys, especially those children who live by begging, and some peasant children, although some of the meanings in the song are not fully known, but I don't know who is behind the scenes, and they actually let those children learn all of them, and they sing thieves.

When I walk the streets and alleys with nothing to do, I hum a couple of sentences.

Some storytelling teahouses and restaurants also began to talk about various versions of the inhumanity of the second prince.

What kind of noble son of the court wanted to rob the daughter of a good family, and was abolished after being resisted.

What is the second prince whose nature is evil, punished by heaven......

In short, there are different opinions on various versions, and they can't be suppressed.

The second thing is that there was a sudden robbery incident in Jingzhou, which is a big city not far from the capital, which is a very prosperous territory.

Although the highest official there has a small position, he also enjoys the general rights of the emperor there, and the so-called mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and sometimes his life is particularly nourishing.

But recently, I don't know what's going on, there have been incidents of robbery in the streets and alleys, burning, killing and looting.

Some wealthy people even have restlessness.

This matter has attracted great attention from the imperial court.

can't be ignored, who can be sent, which has caused a lot of controversy in the court.

At this time, it was the early dynasty of the imperial court.

The ministers stood in silence with their heads bowed.

The emperor saw that no one stood up to receive the task after his words went down, and after being silent for a while, he continued.

"Still no one wants to go? You must know that Jingzhou collects a lot of tax and silver every year, if Jingzhou is ruined, it will be a great disadvantage to the imperial court in the future, you are all the pillars of the imperial court, no one is willing to contribute to me? ”

"Chen's injury some time ago is not healed, and it is not suitable to deal with it now." Ji Qingyu's eyelids didn't stop, and she took herself out directly.

"Right Minister, what about you?"

When Yue Lanzhi heard this, he sighed in his heart, but he still replied respectfully: "If you go back to the emperor, there are things in the hands of the ministers that cannot be moved, the border of Nancheng is now in a famine, and the ministers and the people under them are busy with this matter, and it is not easy to hand over for a while, and there are useful talents everywhere in the court, so the emperor should choose someone else." ”

“……”

The two most important ministers of the imperial court all refused, and the rest of them went into a chill.

There are no people who can confront King Ye in the court, that is, they can still control one or two elbows with the emperor.

There are only one or two people in the court who can fight against Yue Lanzhi.

No one wants to set themselves on fire now.

And going to Jingzhou is not profitable in the first place, and the safety has to be greatly threatened, you must know that the broken place is high and the emperor is far away, even if something happens, there is no time to transfer troops.

And other than that, who knows what those robbers are, and what if there are organized and disciplined sects? When these court officials went, they simply sent an extra head.

Even if the matter is done, it is certain that he will be promoted to the rank of official after returning to the imperial court, but who knows if he can come back alive.

What's more, people don't want to go, and if they open their mouths now, isn't it just offending King Ye and offending the right minister?

None of you are stupid.

So for a moment, silence was restored in the court.

"Well, who are the civil servants who are all right now? Report it, and I'll see who is more appropriate. The emperor's expression was extremely serious, and he was very angry now.

But he had to suppress his anger, he was right to be high and powerful, but if there was no one under him to help him do things, he was just a bare-bones commander.

Since no one wants to stand up for this task, it can only be forcibly assigned.

He wanted to see if the decree would be issued and who would dare to disobey it.

"If you go back to the emperor, the ministers have important things with you."

"If you go back to the emperor, Weichen is old."

"Back to the emperor, the old mother in Weichen's family is seriously ill ......"

All of a sudden, those who had tasks in the court said that they couldn't get out, and those who didn't have any excuses couldn't get out.

One after another, he stood up and came out one after another

None of the people in the string dared to open their mouths to take on this task.

Smart people smell the slightest smell of something wrong, and they don't want to wade into this troubled water at all, after all, Jingzhou's territory is not bad if it is prosperous, but if you want to say that it is poor, compared to Kyoto, it is also a poor city.

In such a place, all of a sudden, there were all kinds of burning, killing and looting incidents on a large scale, and no one would believe that there were no ghosts here.

However, it is not too difficult to find out who is doing it.

After all, they are not alone when they want to go over, and they must have a large number of people behind them, but the key is to find out, and when they find out some people, what are you going to do?

What can make a big city turbulent/chaotic, Bi Ding is not an ordinary person, and ordinary officials can't do it.

Nabi is a high-ranking person, but can anyone who is a high-ranking person be offended?

Who can be an official is not a person with an active mind.

"Hmph." The emperor snorted coldly, his face was as pale as iron.

There is a column of civil officials, a total of 38 people, and a column of military attachés, a total of 38 people, which is the total number of people who can go to court.

Sometimes it's a little more, sometimes it's a little less, for example, someone takes sick leave, or is sent out, and sometimes someone comes to discuss something, but the number doesn't fluctuate too much.

However, so many people, plus these subordinates, there are often hundreds of people who can do this, and now no one has agreed to this matter, he has talked to this point, and he is still entrusting, which is simply infuriating.

"Your Majesty, from the perspective of Weichen, this matter, it is better to draw lots to solve it, since everyone is too busy to get away, then it can only depend on who has a little worse luck and who goes."

There is no doubt that if you can say such shameless words, it is definitely Zuo Xiang.

The emperor was just about to agree, but Yue Lanzhi spoke at this time: "Lord Zuo is not confused, how can you say such a thing as drawing lots?"

Let's not say that there is no fairness at all, just say that there is an official with a task, so what should I do?

There are also some officials whose mothers are seriously ill, if they are asked to go on a mission at this time, won't the old mother return to the West when the mission returns, and who will bear the charge of unfilial piety at that time?

Or do you want to serve your mother for others? ”
