Chapter 60

The earth dragon turned over, commonly known as an earthquake.

Earthquakes are terrible natural disasters regardless of the age, and there were no equipment to predict earthquakes in ancient times, so they could not be prevented.

This earthquake can be said to be worse for Great Qin, and people with ulterior motives will definitely blame this earthquake on the First Emperor and Great Qin.

Great Qin's changes will also be hindered, which is absolutely unacceptable to Qin Xi.

Qin Xi remembered that in ancient times, earthquake relief was only to deliver materials to the disaster area, and everything else depended on the local people and officials, and the role of the army was only used to suppress violence and chaos.

Qin Xi knew that he had to do something, otherwise Daqin would fall into passivity this time.

Qin Xi once again found that he didn't have an official uniform, not even an official seal, he was simply relied on!

"No matter, Yin Ya, you stay at home, I'll go to the palace." Qin Xi said.

"Okay Childe, Childe be careful." Yin Ya kept sending Qin Xi out of the door.

On the way to the palace again, Qin Xi had already seen many people gathered to discuss this matter, and the government's action was to dispel these discussions.

Qin Xi shook his head and walked straight to Xianyang Palace, this is not good, something will happen.

Human nature is elusive, and the more you suppress it, the more people will want to talk about it, and eventually it will develop into cranky thoughts, and finally rumors will spread.

Suddenly, an eight-hundred-mile horse rushed straight into Xianyang Palace.

There was an unlucky guy who didn't even have time to dodge and was almost knocked away, and this unlucky guy was Qin Xi.

Qin Xi patted his clothes and continued to walk towards Xianyang Palace.

In the palace, all the ministers and the emperor were waiting for news, and most of them had anxious looks on their faces.

"Report~!" A soldier rushed into the hall in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, Xinzheng Dilong turned over, and the people suffered heavy casualties!"

The soldier must have finished his report and gasped for air.

"Ten gold bounty, help out and rest." The First Emperor said lightly.

"Your Majesty, the minister will immediately go to prepare supplies, and they will be sent to Xinzheng in just two days." Xiao He, who was promoted all at once, immediately stood up and said.

"Your Majesty, in order to prevent violence and chaos, the minister implores me to bring troops to suppress the mob." Wang Ben stood up and said.

Li Si stood up and arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, it is possible that the turning of the earth dragon is not over yet, and the local officials should be ordered to transfer the people to other counties." ”

At this time, a eunuch walked up to the First Emperor and said a few words in the First Emperor's ear.

The First Emperor's face changed, and then he whispered a few words to the eunuch, and the eunuch hurriedly ran out.

Just when the ministers were puzzled, the First Emperor said, "I am not in good health today, so I will raise the curtain." ”

"No." Several eunuchs immediately lowered the curtain on the main hall, and suddenly they couldn't see the emperor's appearance.

The ministers were all very puzzled, what is wrong with Your Majesty? I was fine just now, why is my health not good?

The First Emperor said: "Xiao He, you go down first to prepare supplies and send them to Xinzheng." ”

"No!"

As soon as Xiao He left, the eunuch walked in and said, "Your Majesty, the pavilion chief of Changxi Village asks to see you." ”

Changxi Village is the name of Qin Xi's town, and after the self-transformation method was fully rolled out, the first emperor gave the name Changxi Village, and Qin Xi also became the chief of the pavilion.

Li Si and Wang Jian understood at once, but the other ministers didn't understand how a pavilion chief had the courage to meet the emperor at this time.

The First Emperor said in a deep voice, "Let him in." ”

"No!"

······

After Qin Xi came in, he didn't feel the slightest fear in the eyes of the ministers. Walking to the main hall, he bowed to the first emperor behind the curtain.

"Get up, Qin Xi, as the pavilion chief, what are you witnessing today?" The First Emperor asked.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, the minister is here for the matter of the earth dragon turning over." Qin Xi stood there and said without being humble or arrogant.

"Bold!" One of the ministers stood up and said, "Your Majesty! This person is just a small pavilion chief, and when he saw that His Majesty did not wear official uniforms, and talked about the government in vain, he actually despised the court and His Majesty! ”

"Shut up!" The First Emperor directly reprimanded this person back, and then said to Qin Xi: "You go on. ”

Qin Xi was also taken aback by the temper of the First Emperor, and cold sweat flowed out.

Qin Xi lowered his head and said, "Although the minister doesn't know where the dragon turned over, this will inevitably have an extremely adverse impact on my Great Qin, and if my Great Qin doesn't deal with it properly, I'm afraid it will affect the prestige of Great Qin." ”

Li Si looked at Qin Xi and asked, "I don't know what the pavilion chief thinks?" ”

Qin Xi continued to lower his head and said, "Your Majesty, but this is not an opportunity. ”

"What chances? Where does the opportunity come from? The First Emperor asked.

Qin Xi continued to bow his head and said, "Your Majesty should mobilize a large army to rush to the disaster area, but not suppress it, in addition to maintaining order, you should send Great Qin Ruishi to help the people." Try to find the people who survived from the rubble. ”

"And there are many tents in our army, and it is okay for the Great Qin Ruishi to sleep in the open, but the people can't bear it."

"If you don't suppress it, what if there is a mob?" An official stepped forward and asked.

"There are two reasons for the mob, one is instigation, and the other is hunger. Therefore, I only need to ensure that the people are fed and clothed, and find out the instigators. ”

Qin Xi immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, this battle is related to the improvement of the relationship between my Qin people and the people of Kanto, and it should not be underestimated. ”

"Tell me what to do." The First Emperor said.

"No!"

"One! Mobilize supplies to the disaster area to stabilize the people in the disaster area. It's not just food, it's tents, water. ”

"Two! After the earth dragon turns over, there will be casualties, and it is easy to breed plague, white spirits can remove the plague, and it is necessary to use a large amount of white spirits to disinfect, and at the same time send doctors to the disaster area. ”

"Three! Local water sources are closed and can only be opened after it is confirmed to be safe, and drinking water is usually transported from other places. The iron works under the name of the minister can step up the construction of iron barrels. ”

"Four! Mobilize a large army to go to the disaster area, maintain law and order, and vigorously treat the victims. I want to show my determination to die for the people of the world! ”

"Five! Dispatch court officials or clan representatives to the disaster area to comfort the people and supervise the distribution of materials. ”

Li Si immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this move can win the hearts of the people in the world and is feasible. ”

Ying Xi also stood up and said, "The minister is willing to go to Xinzheng!" ”

The First Emperor said: "This matter is imminent, Wang Qian, you quickly mobilize the Lishan army to go to Xinzheng in person, and order Mengwu to send 200,000 troops back. ”

"No!"

"The edict and the disaster relief in Xinzheng are fully responsible for Wang Qian, Qin Xi assists from the side, and officials from all ministries of Daqin fully cooperate."

"No!"

"Li Si, take out all the money and food that the Ministry of Civil Affairs can take, and transfer out of the palace if it is not enough."

"No!"

"Meng Yi."

"The minister is here!" Meng Yi stood up.

"The Supervision Department is temporarily in charge of you, supervise the officials of all ministries, do not suppress the people, and do your best to cooperate with Xinzheng disaster relief!"

"No!"

Everyone can see that the First Emperor said that Wang Jian was fully responsible for this disaster relief, but in fact, Qin Xi was the leader, and Wang Jian was only nominally used to serve the public.

And Li Siying, Xi and Yao Jia have no objections to this, which is obviously very abnormal.

This time, Qin Xi really walked into the eyes of the court officials and really walked into the power center of Great Qin.
