Chapter 825: Incompetence

When the official saw that his lord was indifferent, he knew that the adult did not know how serious the matter was.

The official wiped the rain from his face, and then shouted, "My lord! The bursting of the embankment in Changtianfu this time was very serious, and nearly 10 villages have been submerged, and the number of dead and injured is estimated to be about 7,000 or 8,000. ”

"What?" Yang Chaoying turned to look at the errand officer in shock, his eyes widening in disbelief.

"How many people did you say died?" Yang Chaoying's hands were trembling, the rain mixed into his mouth, and he seemed to taste the taste of rust spots.

"It can only be estimated temporarily, about eight thousand. Even the prefect's yamen of Changtianfu was soaked in water, and the lower reaches of the Changtianfu River were flooded. ”

Yang Chaoying was stunned on the spot, he didn't expect this matter to be so serious.

"What about the messengers? The official wants to ask him, didn't Qian Huichun transfer people to the high ground? Why are there still casualties? ”

Yang Chaoying suddenly felt a sense of sadness that the rabbit had died and the fox had died, his legs and feet were weak, and he almost couldn't stand on his feet.

Seeing this, the official hurriedly stepped forward to help.

"Quick! What did your adults tell you? Why didn't those people move? What the hell is Qian Tsubaki doing? As soon as he saw someone coming, Yang Chaoying immediately shouted angrily.

"Lord Yang! If it weren't for Lord Qian's failure to transfer the people, things would have gone smoothly, and in another day, it would have been completed. But who would have thought that the embankment collapsed too seriously this time, most of the embankment in the downstream area collapsed, and the river flooded more than ten villages, and the people and officials had no time to run, and they were all swallowed up by the river. The river is so fast, how can they run across it? ”

The visitor wiped his tears, and many of his relatives died in the burst. If he can come alive to report the news, it can be regarded as the rest of his life.

"We have already moved to the highlands, who would have thought that the river was too fast and too fierce, and even the highlands were not spared, those people could not avoid it!"

Yang Chaoying gasped, this matter is so serious, it must be reported to the imperial court immediately. Not only did he have to allocate money for disaster relief, but he also had to ask the Qin to preside over the overall situation.

"Where's your family? Is he alive? ”

The visitor nodded, "Your Excellency escaped!" ”

Yang Chaoying suddenly sneered, and he was still alive. If he really died in the river, the court would not be wiped out.

Qian Huichun's family may still be alive, who would have thought that this Qian Huichun would be so fateful.

What's the use of surviving at this point? Didn't he know that the imperial court would inevitably not let him go?

"Sharpen the ink for the official!" Yang Chaoying made up his mind and planned to report it immediately.

Three days later, when the emperor was in the court, De'an had just taken two bamboo tubes and took them into his hands and rushed to the Taihe Palace.

"I have already sent officials to Jiangnan and other places to inspect, and the prefect of Changtian Mansion, Qian Huichun, has not reported the number of people affected by the disaster until now, this person is really hateful, after this incident, I will definitely punish him severely."

The emperor mentioned the flood in Changtianfu again, and all the officials were silent, and the palace was silent.

De'an looked at the angry emperor, but he still had the courage to step forward, "Your Majesty! Jiangnan Flying Pigeon Biography is here! ”

"Bring it up!" The emperor was originally interrupted, and he was very unhappy. But at this time, the news from Jiangnan must be about the flood.

The emperor looked at the two red bamboo pipes and chose one at random to open.

When he opened it, his original frowning brows relaxed, three hundred? That's still under control, it's not too serious.

The emperor's anger has dropped slightly, and it seems that the previous estimate was too pessimistic.

However, I can't believe this money painting Tsubaki's words. It was still necessary to wait until the officials he sent to Jiangnan had checked the number of people before he could confirm it.

The ministers knew that this was a letter from Jiangnan, and when they saw that the emperor's expression eased a little, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the disaster situation in Jiangnan has been brought under control, and the number of casualties among the people is not large.

The officials of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs all have a feeling that they will have the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, and if the embankment collapses seriously, then they will not be able to eat and walk around.

Although they were not in charge at the time, they all benefited from it to some extent.

The emperor put down the paper in his hand, and when he saw another red bamboo pipe, his heart couldn't help but rise again.

Could it be that other state capitals are also flooded? Otherwise, why are there two letters?

He took a deep breath, what should come will come.

Spreading out the letters in the bamboo tube, and taking a cursory glance, the shocked look on the emperor's face could not be hidden.

He sat up straight, looked at it twice in disbelief, and finally stood up with an agitated expression.

"Bastard! Outrageous! Qian Echun is incompetent! ”

The emperor slapped the armrest on the dragon chair fiercely, and at this moment his expression was like a storm, overwhelming everyone in the hall.

As soon as De'an saw the emperor's face, he knew that the emperor was angry.

The ministers in the palace heard the emperor talk about Qian Huichun's incompetence, and immediately understood that there was another accident in Changtianfu.

"Dean! Go to Xuanhanlin Academy to give a lecture to Gu Chengyu! ”

The emperor has a headache at the moment, and he is even more disgusted with Qian Huichun!

Dean immediately took the order to go out, and he knew that there must have been a hundred thousand urgent events. Unable to avoid the delay of those fools, De'an walked towards the Hanlin Courtyard in person.

"Humph! I have to arrest Qian Huichun to the capital and watch him being divided by five horses with my own eyes, so as to relieve the hatred in my heart! ”

When Xia Qing saw that the emperor was so angry, he knew that the matter of Changtian Mansion was not small.

Qian Huichun must die, but not in the capital by the five horses, but in Changtianfu.

But the emperor suddenly summoned Gu Chengyu, and Xia Qing knew that the emperor was going to send Gu Chengyu to Jiangnan. His little disciple has just gone to Jiangnan, and he has been traveling day and night, and he can go to Jiangnan today.

But if Gu Chengyu goes, will there be a chance for Min Feng to make meritorious contributions? Gu Chengyu went, Min Feng seemed redundant, what is this?

"Your Majesty! I don't know what stupid thing this Qian Echun has done? Seeing that no one dared to ask questions, Yu Zheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, took the lead in opening his mouth.

Although the emperor was furious at this time, he had nothing to do with the Jiangnan embankment. If no one in the palace dared to ask, the emperor would inevitably be even more angry.

Annoyed that they don't care about the people's suffering, they all know how to protect themselves, and don't share worries about the court and the emperor.

"Humph! What stupid thing was done? Changtianfu broke the embankment again, and this time the embankment burst was very serious, and more than ten villages have been flooded. The casualties of the people are temporarily set at seven or eight thousand, such a tragic event, shouldn't I have divided their five horses? Those are all living people! ”

The emperor was holding on to the dragon chair, barely able to stand, and at this moment he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart.

Since his accession to the throne, there has never been a disaster of this magnitude.

Unexpectedly, he was on the throne for ten years, and this year he encountered a flood that was rare in a century.

Could it be that God is punishing him, punishing him for not having the idea of immortality?
