241. False Credit
On the morning of the second day, Zhu Di said that the land of earth movement in the north had begun to recover, and Yushi raised doubts and disbelief.
There are also officials who told the incident that Qiu Fu lied about in eastern Zhejiang last time, and they think that the northern land is so badly affected that it is impossible to start rebuilding in just one month.
Chen Ying, on behalf of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, had already taken the lead in questioning Ji Gang and King Zhao, and Zhu Di then calmed down.
It is true that the recovery in a month is very slow, but Cheng Yuan will not lie to him, Zhu Di thinks not.
"Your Majesty, the minister heard that the northern earthquake area involves several prefectures and counties, especially the most serious earthquake in Huazhou, where houses have collapsed, landslides, official roads have been broken, and countless casualties have been killed.
Chen Ying is the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and she is also qualified to question it.
Lu Zhen has been managing the affairs of the Ministry of Rites for the past few days, and he also said: "Your Majesty, although there is rescue in the imperial court, there are very few, a drop in the bucket, how can the victims of the disaster in Huazhou recover so quickly, it must be that the Zhenguo Gong wants to invite merit, so he said so."
Emperor Shan Gao is far away, and for the sake of merit, he does not hesitate to exaggerate the facts, and it is said that many of the local officials are dead, and there are little thieves, and His Majesty cannot only believe their words. ”
“………… This, I know. Zhu Di was depressed when he heard this, and what he was originally happy about was just mixed up with them.
And what really worries him is that he is afraid that Cheng Yuan and Zhu Neng will also be like Qiu Fu, once bitten by a snake, and he will be afraid of the well rope for ten years, Zhu Di is very cautious.
Zhu Di glanced at the people below and said, "Who else has something to do?" If you have nothing to do, let's disperse. ”
Yang Shiqi said: "Your Majesty, the Duke of Zhenguo believes in the fact that he is a minister, but some people slander indiscriminately, and the minister is willing to go to the north for His Majesty to verify." ”
"Verify? What if Bachelor Yang cheats with Zhen Guogong? Lu Zhen said.
Lu Zhen is just a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and he dares to confront Yang Shiqi, which is nothing more than relying on Zhu Di's favor to him.
Yang Rong said: "Lu Zhen, don't spew blood. ”
"Lu Zhen, step aside." Zhu Di scolded.
Yang Shiqi said: "Your Majesty, the minister was originally worried about His Royal Highness the Prince, so he just checked it for His Majesty, so as not to misunderstand the two princes, and then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will also be wronged and colluded together." ”
Zhu Di said: "Don't make any noise." ”
No matter what disasters occur in various parts of the imperial court, it is generally the imperial history of the Shilang or the Imperial Inspectorate, except for the locust plague and flood, which ordinary people can't solve, Cheng Yuan has been.
Cabinet scholars rarely go.
But Yang Shiqi asked for help, and Zhu Di was upset by Chen Ying and Lu Zhen, two guys with sores on their heads and pus in their heads.
Thinking of this, Zhu Di sighed: "Since I knew about the movement in the north, I can't wait to go to the disaster-stricken county immediately."
The decree was passed on, so that the northern health centers would assist the officials in Beijing to fight the disaster, and then transfer 3,000 men and horses from Beijing to help recover with Yang Shiqi.
Yang Shiqi, you can go, this time, I will help the two children to build thoroughly, and take them back to Beijing together, I believe you. ”
Yang Shiqi immediately received the order, but the other officials were worried, and if the credit was true or false, it would be unfavorable to Yang Shiqi.
Second, the official roads along the way have been broken, and the situation in various places is unknown.
Zhu Di ordered Yang Shiqi to go, and he still hoped that no matter whether the rapid reconstruction was true or not, he wanted Yang Shiqi to be able to calm down quickly, after all, he was a bachelor of the Yongle Dynasty.
Yang Shiqi also knew that he was very bold.
Zhu Di said: "When you set off, go to the Zhenguo Mansion first." ”
"Obey." Yang Shiqi said.
"The prince, the prince of Chengguo, the prince of Zhenguo, even the secretary of the Ministry of Rites has also gone, and now you are going to Huazhou with you, a scholar, but all my talents have gone, how fake can the reconstruction be?"
When Zhu Di asked who was going to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, they all bowed their heads and were silent, and they did not rush to be the first.
Yang Shiqi set off overnight and went to the Zhenguo Mansion to say a few words of greetings and briefly explain the situation.
"The minister has seen His Highness. His Majesty asked the minister to ask His Highness, but what do you have to say to the Duke of Zhenguo. ”
"Master Yang, there is nothing to say in this palace, tell him that everything is fine."
"Obey."
"Hmm."
An Cheng felt uncomfortable, but he still didn't say it in front of Yang Shiqi, after all, it was the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Ji Gang who slandered them so much.
"Your Highness, the minister and the prince know each other, and the prince is very clear about being a minister."
"Bachelor Yang, the earth is shaking, he went to Huazhou that night, and the palace feels that he should go, for the people, this is the righteousness.
But the eldest brother and Cheng Yuan have been sleeping and risking their lives, and now they have come back with a happy event, but they are questioned as false. The heart is black, and nothing is clean. ”
Yang Shiqi said: "Alas, if His Royal Highness has a letter to the prince, the minister is willing to serve." ”
An Cheng thought for a while and wrote: "This palace has thanked Master Yang. ”
"The minister doesn't dare, His Highness takes his leave."
In order to be safe, Yang Shiqi prepared food and other things, and set off in a majestic manner, after all, Haohuazhou is far away from the capital.
In addition, Yang Shiqi was so anxious that he wanted to check the reconstruction, so he kept urging the officers and soldiers to speed up.
After walking for more than ten days, Yang Shiqi's originally neatly trimmed beard became unshapely, and his face kept peeling.
A group of people crossed the mountains and mountains, approached the road, and went to the border between Shaanxi and Henan, the more shocking and miserable they were, and they couldn't help but feel chills when they saw the villages razed to the ground.
Yang Shiqi felt that his butt was about to be worn out by the saddle, and his mouth began to peel off, it was too hard here.
But Yang Shiqi was thinking in his heart, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also went from here, but how hard it must be.
Ruins like this, Huazhou should be more serious, have they really rebuilt?
The more Yang Shiqi walked, the more he admired Cheng Yuan and them, so he didn't care about the pain in his buttocks, and continued to staggered onto the horse.
The officials behind him were even more miserable, pulling their faces like dead mothers.
Yang Shiqi ordered the 3,000 army to speed up.
Seeing the land of earth movement and hearing about the land of earth movement are simply two different things, and Yang Shiqi's mood is particularly unbalanced.
"Everybody, hurry up." Yang Shiqi ordered.
………………
Huazhou.
Cheng Yuan organized people to fill in the ruins and tiles directly into the cracks in the ground, and the grass tiger took those people to clean up overnight.
Zhu Gaochi and the carpenter measured the open space not far away, preparing to divide the foundation, and all the houses should be arranged in order, with the houses on both sides facing each other and the street in the middle.
Zhu Neng led people to constantly look for suitable wood from the ruins, and cut down a beam that was needed.
Kuang Yu boiled medicine every day and did a good job of epidemic prevention.
The ladies took care of the chores, and when there were a lot of good things in the mountains in August, they went to dig wild vegetables.
Cheng Yuan would sometimes shoot hares with arrows and use them to stew soup for everyone.
Yang Xianzhi selected literate people from the disaster victims and built a school with wooden planks.
Other soldiers picked up soil and mud, others burned bricks and tiles on the side of the nearby mountains, and some cut bamboo from the mountains, and the carpenters used them to make bowls and chopsticks, and the thicker ones into plates.
The reconstruction was carried out day and night by the au pair under orderly guidance.
