Chapter 9: All Deserve to Die

On this day, the Great Qi Dynasty discussed, due to the drought in many places, the courtiers discussed how to relieve the disaster, and the court meeting did not disperse for a long time.

How to allocate the disaster relief money, how much to disburse, who to pay for it, how to transport the grain, where to transfer it from the granary, who is in charge, how many troops to send to the military camps in various places to assist, and what means to prevent the rebellion of the displaced people......

and so on, and there was a lot of trouble in the court.

The prince's party and the Qin Wang's party fought for a few more places for the main relief officials and more benefits for each other.

Jiang Xiang was silent, lowering his hands and eyebrows. When the quarrel was fierce, he secretly raised his eyes to look at the Supreme Emperor on the throne.

For another three years, Emperor Zhizheng seemed to be in a little bad spirit, and his eyes were not as sharp as they were many years ago.

Jiang project's light hung down again. No advice was made.

"Father, the crown prince suggested that the treasury should transfer silver taels to the disaster area and buy grain nearby to help the victims, but the sons and ministers did not agree."

Seeing that the emperor did not speak, King Qin glanced at the throne.

Like encouraged, he continued: "The area along the state was the most severely affected, and a large number of people moved south, if the official silver was transported all the way to the past, if the homeless people and bandits robbed it, not only the official bank would be lost, but also the food could not be purchased, and the court could not help it, it would lead to the disaster victims not being able to eat, not to mention, but also questioning the determination of the imperial court to provide disaster relief." ”

Who knows if the disaster relief bank is missing or if it has not been dispatched. The victims only have to look at the real thing.

"The minister seconded the proposal." Half of the ministers agreed with what King Qin said.

At that time, if the disaster relief silver is taken away on the road, it will be a hard work in vain, not to mention that the victims will not be able to get relief, and they will also question the ability of the imperial court to provide disaster relief.

The crown prince made many suggestions, all of which were rejected by King Qin, and his heart soared.

"The transfer of government funds from the Ministry of Household Affairs to the disaster areas for disaster relief is just following the old practice of previous years. And along the way, he will also send officers and soldiers to protect him, and King Qin is too worried. ”

"The prince said that his subordinates are too worried? The most disaster-stricken people along the state have rioted, and tens of thousands of people have gathered around Lizhou. ”

The crown prince gritted his teeth and hated, "Is King Qin the army of our Great Qi a paper paste?" ”

"I didn't say this, but the military camps near Lizhou are not good for protecting the people, and it is a fact that the county government of Zhicang County was taken by the displaced people."

The corner of the prince's mouth sneered, "The county order of Cangxian County seems to be surnamed Lan." ”

The mother of King Qin is Concubine De, and Concubine De's surname is Lan. The county magistrate of Cangxian County is a member of the Concubine De clan, and through the hands of King Qin, he obtained the position of county magistrate of Cangxian County under Lizhou.

Previously, Cangxian County was not seriously affected, the victims along the state fled to Cangxian, Lan County ordered the rescue to be unfavorable, ordered people to close the city gate and not allow the victims to enter, and did not give porridge, nor did they take any measures to appease the people, the county was still singing and dancing everywhere, until the victims were emotional, causing riots.

The displaced people finally broke through the city gate, so that there were countless casualties, and the county commander of Cangxian County did not bring anyone to resist, and did not send troops to the surrounding barracks for help, but fled with his family.

When the officials of the prince's family saw that the prince mentioned the matter of Cangxian, several officials played the impeachment order of Cangxian County, as well as the officials of Lizhou.

When the king of Chu saw that the prince and his family brought up this matter again, he gritted his teeth with hatred.

Originally, this matter had been discussed a few days ago, and the DPRK and China also discussed the punishment of the Lan County Commander and the Governor of Lizhou, Tongzhi and others, and the barracks near Cangxian County had also rushed to Cangxian County to drive away the displaced people.

Unexpectedly, when it came to disaster relief today, his brother gave up many benefits in order to make up for it, and tried his best to put forward some beneficial disaster relief measures, but he didn't expect to be re-mentioned by the prince.

The king of Chu was so angry that he was about to argue with the prince, but was pulled by the king of Qin.

King Qin glanced at the prince lightly, and bowed his hand to Emperor Zhizheng who was seated: "Father, the Lan County Order has indeed taken the path of the sons and daughters, and has won the position of the county commander of Cangxian County. ”

Emperor Zhizheng raised his eyes lightly, swept the sons below, and his eyes fell on King Qin again, "What is King Qin's good plan?" ”

"Father, from the treasury to transport the silver all the way to the disaster area, one is the long way, the other is afraid of another incident on the road, it is better to ask my father to issue an edict, and order the counties and governments in the disaster area to raise their own disaster silver, and the government and county yamen will pay in advance, and borrow money or grain from the big households in the city, and wait for the situation to stabilize, and then return it, and be rewarded by the imperial court."

Jiang Xiang couldn't help but look up in the direction of King Qin, but he didn't expect King Qin to make such an excellent suggestion.

When the ministers heard King Qin's words, they also exchanged their heads and discussed a lot.

"Father, the emperor, the sons are also willing to follow the emperor's brother and donate 100,000 taels of silver to fill the disaster."

"The minister is willing to donate five thousand taels." "Donate 10,000 yuan."

"The minister donated three thousand taels."

……

The prince and his family glanced at each other, and they also made pledges.

Emperor Zhizheng was overjoyed, "Okay, good, all the ministers have a merit, this matter will be done according to what King Qin said, this disaster relief is also managed by King Qin, and the Ministry of Household and Military Affairs and the ministers of the Ministry need to cooperate with King Qin to do a good job of pacifying the people." ”

"Yes. The emperor is wise. ”

When the prince saw it, his back molars were cracked.

Originally, he could have taken advantage of the county order of Cangxian County to bite the King of Qin hard, and the disaster relief could also be handed over to his subordinates, and the credit would be his, but the father did not pursue the fault of the King of Qin, but handed over the disaster relief to the King of Qin to take charge of.

The crown prince glanced indistinctly at the throne and lowered his head again.

King Chu glanced at the prince defiantly, snorted lowly, and when he saw Brother Qin's eyes, his gaze turned away again.

On the other side, Zhao Guangyuan, who received the news, was stunned.

"Is the area along the state so badly affected, ten rooms and nine empty?"

Zhao Guangyuan didn't pay much attention to the disaster in Yanzhou before, after all, the disaster in the surrounding provinces along the state was not serious, and as long as he borrowed grain from neighboring state capitals, he could get through this difficulty.

As a result, did the victims of the disaster along the state still flee their homes?

"Lizhou is also a grain-producing area, and Cangxian County has several big rivers, which are large grain-producing counties every year, and there will be no shortage of grain storage. And there is a barracks near Cangxian County, how can the displaced people break through the county government? "There are countless dead and wounded!

Zhao Guangyuan's fist slammed into the table, and the books on the table jumped up, and then fell back to the table, returning to calm.

"Lord Wang, the prefect of Yanzhou is the prince's person, and Lizhou is the person of the king of Qin."

Along the state of the disaster, the victims to Lizhou for help, Lizhou counties closed the city gates and refused to accept the victims, to the homeless people riot.

I don't know if anyone instructed it, anyway, the disaster relief along the state is not good, and the officials have been cleaned from top to bottom. Although Lizhou did not act, it was almost cleaned up, and the county order of Cangxian County was beheaded for public display, but it seems that King Qin has nothing to lose.

Didn't it fall on King Qin to take charge of disaster relief this time?

All the money and grain of the household department were dispatched by the king of Qin, and even the military department was dispatched by the king of Qin.

Gee.

Zhao Guangyuan's brows furrowed. For the sake of infighting, the two factions of the crown prince and the king of Qin ignored tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands of disaster victims? Take the lives of the people of Daqi as a stepping stone?

A depressed fire ignited in Zhao Guangyuan's chest, damn it, damn it!
