Chapter 921: It's a Small Thing
His Majesty, who had been solemn for many days, finally had a little more smile on his face, so that there were officials in poor health above the court who let out a fart in public.
Anyone can see that His Majesty is in a very good mood today, and the people who opened the court early are like a spring breeze, and when they retreat from the court, there is also a little more fun among the civil and military officials.
"Originally, I blamed Na Di Fangxing for being shameless, but this time I want to thank him for being shameless." An official sighed, "If it weren't for his resolute and resolute measures this time, things would never have gone so smoothly." ”
It is said that the camp captured the two bought people overnight, as well as more than 20 officials in the positions of deputy generals, heralds, etc., which are simply outrageous.
And His Majesty also showed a completely different iron-blooded method from the previous emperor, without a word of nonsense, "correcting the law on the spot" and "killing without forgiveness". It is said that there was a river of blood in the camp that night. It's not that no one wants to turn against the crime and make meritorious contributions, but His Majesty started with a sentence "This world is the world of Great Chu and the world of me, why should you and other traitors say what kind of rebellion?" Do I lack you two traitors? "Dismissed it.
is obviously a woman, and even heard that the empress was just an ordinary and cute little girl before she ascended the throne, how do you know that since she ascended the throne, she has shown a completely different side? Far more decisive than the first emperor.
"The world has a biased view of women!" Xu Changshan, who had not spoken for a long time in the court, sighed, "Your Majesty is like this, maybe it's a blessing!" ”
Such a method is enough to deter everyone, and it also dispels many people who are lucky and have a slight remark on women, because they dare not say it, they will not talk nonsense, and over time, that kind of idea will gradually disappear from the people.
……
When Di Fangxing took away the last batch of prisoners detained in the mansion, He Taiping breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Xie Shu on the side: "Lord Xie go back early!" Today, I heard that it is the 70th birthday of the Taiwei Gong, and after the official is on duty, he will come to the house to congratulate him. ”
Xie Shu nodded, got up and saluted He Taiping: "Xia Guan has thanked my grandfather here." ”
He Taiping said with a smile: "You don't have to be so ......" Before the words "polite" came out, some officials shouted "Lord He" and "Lord He" outside.
Before he could speak, two officials broke in, with a look of urgency: "Lord He, something is wrong!" ”
What can happen at such a time? He Taiping and Xie Shu were both surprised, and before they could ask questions, the two officials spoke.
"The people went to the government to sit in protest!"
He Taiping was dumbfounded: "What are they protesting for?" "I think that although he He Taiping is not a saint, he is also an honest and fair official, and the people are known to have a clean name. Even the two emperors praised him for having the saying of "Taiping Chang'an". There was a natural divide between officials and the people, but he never imagined that one day this gap would appear in him.
"What did the officer do?" For a while, He Taiping was not angry in his heart, but asked loudly and puzzled, "What did this official do wrong recently?" ”
The official broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly said, "No...... It's not an adult's business, it's a ...... Sky. They protest that it doesn't rain! ”
"What does that have to do with this official?" He Taiping said angrily, he was angry for a while, and he didn't have time to think about it.
However, Xie Shu thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it is because of the kindness of the adults that they will come to the government to meditate." ”
Since ancient times, sit-ins and protests have been the most direct and fierce means for the people to ask for their lives, so fierce that officials have to pay attention to them. After all, unless these officials are nested in the government and do not move an inch, they must pass these people once they come out; But at the same time, not all sit-in protests can get the results that the people want, and if the officials are ruthless enough and have enough men and horses, they may not do anything to make an example.
There are precedents for these. The sit-in protest came to He Taiping, but it was only for the sake of He Taiping's reputation for being kind and not doing anything to the people.
Those literati who think highly of themselves often look down on the people, and feel that these illiterate Diao people can't do anything big, but the result is not so, the people have a natural sensitivity to matters involving their own safety, for example, the current choice of He Taiping is the best choice they subconsciously make.
"It's not so much the sky that is protesting, it's more the rumors that we started these days when we caught Chen Shan's traitors." Xie Shu pondered for a moment and said, "These days, there have been rumors among the people that the Li family's blood-stained imperial tomb caused the wrath of the heavens, and this is the punishment that has been caused. Yang Gong's blindness is only the first step of heaven's punishment, and sooner or later it will harm the people! ”
"What nonsense!" He Taiping couldn't help but be furious when he heard this, "Who is spreading such news?" ”
Xie Shu shook his head: "I don't know." After a pause, he added, "Maybe there is no need for anyone to deliberately spread such news, after all, this natural disaster has been a sign for a long time." ”
It rained for months, and it was hot before the summer began, and the well water dried up, and everything was foreshadowed.
"And I heard that Yang Gong's blindness is indeed caused by heaven's curse." Xie Shu said, as a disciple of the Xie family, he naturally has a news channel that is different from ordinary people, "Lord He, although you and I don't understand feng shui, we also know the importance of the land of the imperial tomb, and it's hard to say about this matter." ”
There is also an ancient folk saying that "a person who lies down well can bless his descendants", and it is usually difficult to say that it involves the ancient mystical art of yin and yang, and it is not something that a layman like him can tell.
But what everyone is seeing now is a natural disaster, and this natural disaster will affect this Chang'an City in the long run. The market is criss-crossed, and all walks of life are resting at sunrise and sunset, and they continue to develop in an orderly manner. Now, because of natural disasters, the price of ice in Chang'an has increased several times, and there have even been cases where someone occupies the undried well to collect water money and cause a fight like a bully. These days, the movement in Chang'an City is too big, and many people's eyes are staring at the eradication of Chen Thief's rebellion against the party, he is a county commander, but he has come into contact with the people at the bottom, and he has dealt with no less than ten such battles these days.
Xie Shu felt that this Chang'an City was like a complex and exquisite object, and the industry was like the organ of this exquisite object, all the organs were intact, and the object could be moved, and once a mechanism went wrong, it would sooner or later affect the operation of this object.
is different from the "major events of the country" that Cui and Wang Xu were exposed to when they were sent to the Ministry of Officials, he is a small county order, but he knows that "small things" can sometimes pry the lifeblood of a country, and it makes sense that there may be no big or small things. 2k reading web
