Chapter 43: The Earth Shakes the Mountains
For five days in a row, except for Ding Feng showing his face, Gongsun Zhi and Lou Yi never appeared, Xiaoru sighed, she originally thought that the emperor might summon her to question, she has been a little worried, now it seems that if the emperor can't take care of himself for a while, or Gongsun Zhi has thought of a way to make himself not become very conspicuous, according to Xiaoru's understanding of the old man, the second is more likely.
In the past few days, it has been calm, there is no meaning of the slightest movement, plus the beginning of autumn, the weather is cold, daily necessities can not be supplied, eating, drinking and bathing are very difficult, there are many people with wind cold, some delicate, the body is also tired, feel a little unbearable, inevitably complain.
The common people who took refuge in the suburbs began to mumble, although they did not dare to criticize the emperor openly, but secretly they gradually disagreed, thinking that the saint was just a dream, so they made such a fuss, and the people under the rule were not at peace, it was really not the temperament of the Ming monarch, and even a few were worried that the things left at home would be stolen, and they secretly went home despite the persuasion of others.
For such a situation, Xiaoru has no choice, only to let the rats run around in groups every once in a while, trying to avoid most people from getting confused, as for the individual, she can't care about it.
However, now the emperor is really calm, and the news is still being transmitted to all nearby places in an orderly manner, regardless of whether he is really not in a hurry or fake, what he shows on the outside is always calm, which can be seen from the faces of those officials who come and go, if the emperor is anxious, these officials will not have such a peaceful mood.
After Xiao Ru finished prescribing medicine to the last patient, she returned to her mother-in-law, helped Meng Nier clean up her dinner, and pondered while lighting a fire, that emperor actually listened to the news of the old man Gongsun telling the news of the movement of the capital division, so he immediately made a decision and issued that edict, if it was replaced by someone else, I am afraid it would not be so easy.
She didn't think much about it at first, but as the days went by, she gradually praised the emperor in her heart, and he was worthy of being a person who was willing to serve the old man Gongsun Zhi, a pedantic celestial, and it was really atmospheric.
Xiao Ru knew in his heart that although the emperor's will was conveyed very quickly, but before going down, he must have seriously investigated and considered, presumably he did not live in peace for a day and a night, but he still gambled, this gamble relied on his ability and heartfelt trust in the founding ministers, if he won, even the heavens have a dream warning, then his identity as the son of heaven will never be shaken from now on, and now the so-called rebels and thieves who have other ideas in their hearts are estimated to weigh it in their hearts, the people under his rule, Presumably, he will truly identify with the identity of his generation of emperors.
Of course, even if he is wrong, although it will not have these effects, and he may be criticized for a few absurdities, but first, he did not force these people to be unwilling to leave their homeland, or reluctant to leave their family property, did not pack up properly, and the people who did not have time to leave went elsewhere, but put himself in the shoes of everyone, arranged a level shelter, and did not forget to step up the security of Gyeonggi, contribute money and people, and if the operation is good, and give appropriate compensation afterwards, maybe he can also get a reputation for caring about the safety of the Li people.
In short, there are more benefits than disadvantages, but as a party, it is rare in the world to be able to be so decisive and see so clearly.
"Young lady, it's time to eat." Meng Nier took a bowl of lotus seed porridge, handed it to Xiao Ru's hand, wiped a soup spoon clean, and carefully handed it over, but complained in her mouth, "The young lady is getting busier and busier these days, and she can't even live at night, how can she be good if she is overworked?" Why don't you rest tomorrow, anyway, we have a lot of doctors here......"
"How can I be so noble, I didn't see the two old doctors, a lot of age is still working hard, how can I take Qiao!" Xiaoru smiled, "You can take care of Fu'er and your mother, don't worry about me." ”
The master and servant were talking, Xiao Ru's heart suddenly chuckled, her face changed greatly, the little monkey squeaked a lot, and suddenly jumped into Xiao Ru's arms, trembling, for a moment, before she had time to give a warning, she felt the ground rise and fall, and the sky shook for a while.
Xiaoru didn't think about it, she rushed over and hugged her mother-in-law, squatted on the ground according to her mother-in-law, and calmly shouted at Meng Nier Xiaoyan and the others who were full of panic: "Calm down, squat down with your head in your hands, don't move, Meng Nier, you take care of Fu'er, listen, the environment here is very good, there will be no accidents, everyone calm down, don't mess up." ”
Xiaoru's voice was not loud, but it still affected the people around her, and passed it on one by one, spreading this influence outward, at this time, once a small number of people were in chaos, all the people would be in chaos, but a few people would be sober, and others would also wake up.
Xiaoru obviously felt as if her heart was about to jump out, but her face was not revealed, hugging her mother-in-law tightly, feeling like she had been on a roller coaster, first bumping up and down, and then swaying from side to side, almost unable to squat, she could only let her body fall to the ground.
In fact, the time for the ground to move is very short, but the people here probably feel that it is very long, and they don't know how long the time has passed, and the dizziness has finally passed.
The night sky, which was filled with panic and screams, was silent for a while, Xiao Ru barely stood up, looked at the slender cracks in the land, and many trees in the distance fell from the soil, and exhaled, secretly speechless, although there is no way to test it, but such a destructive power is at least above level seven, and may even reach level eight......
She was standing with emotion, and suddenly, the people all over the field were all aspiring to bow down in the direction of the western suburbs, saying everything in their mouths, in short, it was all words of gratitude, even the mother-in-law grabbed Xiaoru's clothes, and said in a loud voice: "Daughter-in-law, don't be stunned, don't kowtow to the saint quickly, if it weren't for the blessing of the saint, my old woman wouldn't know how to pass this level, hey, you and Brother Xiaolou haven't given me a big fat grandson, how can my wife be willing to die." ”
Xiao Ru looked depressed, but she still obediently knelt down, hey, this emperor picked peaches by himself, and gained such a great reputation, he still has to ...... Kneel down and kowtow to him, it really comes to my heart......
However, I should have a lot of rewards, not only her, like Brother Xiaolou, the old man Gongsun, should be indispensable to the credit, but I don't know if the emperor is generous, give money or give land, if you give more land, in ancient times, or be a landlord and stable.
