Chapter 708 (1/2)

Natural disaster, man-made disaster, grain, anti thief

A series of things made the courtiers all anxious and confused.

Wende's seven year crime is too old!

At the beginning of the new year, nothing good happened.

The whole thing.

Any one of them may overturn the foundation of the state of the Zhou Dynasty and change the name of the whole country.

Wende Di vomited a mouthful of blood and refused to see him. A person sitting quietly in the hall, a sitting is three or four hours.

There's a man-made counter!

There's a man-made counter!

He asked himself that he was a diligent and thrifty emperor.

On his deathbed, the late emperor left him a mess and numerous big holes.

Over the years, he worked hard to mend the mess, and finally made up for the accumulated money over the years.

He has achieved the most perfect degree that an emperor can do. Why is there artificial counter reaction?

Why does the Lord refuse to open his eyes and bring down natural and man-made disasters every year?

Is it true that, as the anti thief said, their father and son are not in the right position, and heaven can't even see it and punish them?

”Your Majesty, it's dark. Have a rest.”

Is it already dark?

When Wende came back to God, he found that the light was dark and the candle was flickering.

He slowly turned his head and looked at Chang en, ”am I a faint monarch?”

”Your Majesty, spare your life!” Chang en kneels on the ground kowtow to plead guilty.

”I forgive you for your innocence. I ask you, am I a Hun Jun? Answer truthfully, or I will kill you. ”

Chang en swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said nervously, ”Your Majesty is certainly not a faint monarch. Your majesty is diligent for you. Last year, the household department finally had a small balance. This is a good omen. ”

”If it is a good omen, why is there a man-made rebellion?”

Emperor Wende looked desolate and asked a series of questions: ”in recent ten years, natural disasters have occurred every year. I am afraid that the people will be overburdened and that the small people will lose their land and go bankrupt. Since becoming the emperor, I have not increased taxes once, and even reduced them several times.

Moreover, the local government issued corvee and corvee, which should not be strict. Even for three years, they even gave the local government an extra sum of money for corvee, for fear that the small people would suffer for the corvee.

I've done everything I can. Why are there people who oppose me? Because of the natural disaster? I've been trying to find a way to relieve the disaster. Why don't they give me a little time? Why revolt?

I am not a despot, not to mention a tyrant. But every year natural disasters, not a year of good weather, and now there are man-made counter-measures. Is it really God's punishment? ”

Chang en quickly said, ”Your Majesty, don't get into the top of a bull's horn! Those who are anti thieves and ambitious are not rebellious because they have no food to eat, but only because they want to rebel.

What kind of punishment, what's wrong? How can those mud legs know these things. It is clear that someone is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, fish in troubled waters, and take the opportunity to cause trouble. It's just that the real identity of the person behind the scenes is still unclear. ”

Vander frowned. ”You have a point. Those words, by no means ordinary people can think of, there must be experts behind. Do you think the people behind the scenes are in the capital? Is it possible that someone would not accept my throne and conspire against it? ”

Chang en's heart was pounding, and he was about to jump out of his throat.

That's scary!

There was a sense of impending storm.

He lowered his head and carefully said, ”Your Majesty, the most important thing is to send troops to suppress the anti thieves. As for the person behind the anti thief, sooner or later we can find out. Secondly, we should find a way to raise food and forage for disaster relief, and we should not allow the disaster to expand. We should also prepare enough kinds of grain. ”

Wende Di nodded repeatedly, ”we must send troops to suppress the anti thieves, and at the same time, we ordered Jin Wuwei to inspect all parts of the capital. Because of the shortage of food, sweet potato is planted. Sweet potato yield is high, even if drought can still be sown. As long as you can live, it doesn't matter if you eat sweet potatoes every day. Through this year and next year, the situation will certainly get better. Certainly

Chang en cried with joy, ”Your Majesty is finally up! The courtiers will be happy for your majesty. This is the lucky thing of Dazhou

Emperor Wende stares at Chang en, and his eyes are shining with dazzling light. ”All the Ai Qing from the six departments of the three provinces of Xuan are here to meet you. How many princes of Xuan are here to meet?”

”Your Majesty, it's dark...”

”Xuan!” The emperor Wende broke off Chang en's words decisively.

”No!”

Chang en bowed down to accept orders, and announced all adults to enter the palace to discuss countermeasures.

……

Early the next morning, Emperor Wende issued several decrees.

From now on, the capital has been under martial law since Xu Shi.

The price of grain is limited. Who dares to bid up the price of grain or is reluctant to sell it after closing the door!

Whoever dares to spread rumors, create trouble and cause panic among the people, regardless of their status, will be put into imperial prison. Jin Wuwei has the right to change his mind and deal with it first and then.

Lingsanhe express must deliver the relief grain and sweet potato to the disaster area within half a month.

The government of the Ministry of housing was ordered to send officials to the disaster area and organize the victims to replant.At the same time, several decrees were sent to the Ministry of war, Beijing camp.

Revolt in front of us, and the whole country's machinery is in full swing.

At the same time, Jin Wuwei dispatched some elite to the anti thief gathering place to investigate the truth of the rebellion.

……

Sanhe express capital headquarters is about three or four miles away from the Weishui wharf and only a few miles away from the official road.

The surrounding terrain is open, and there is no combustible material in the mountain forest.
