"The crash of the gunpowder depot and the fire in Yanqingfang were all due to the decisive dispatch of troops by the Inspection Department and quick action, so that the fire could be controlled in time and avoid more losses and casualties!"
Emperor Liu changed his posture and said slowly: "It stands to reason that the inspection envoy Zhang Yongde has the courage to do his job, the courage to take on responsibilities, and his contribution to relieving difficulties, so he should be praised.
However, he complained to me that night. The reason was that deserting his troops without receiving orders was against the rules of the court. I also felt that this was the case. The court established so many rules and regulations to ensure orderliness and order in every move.
The law can be followed and there are rules that can be implemented. Once the rules are set, they are not just decorations and should be followed.
Regarding this matter, do you have any opinions?"
All the ministers, after listening to Emperor Liu's words, were a little unsure of Emperor Liu's identity. At this time, we would not talk about this anymore, let's blame Zhang Yongde.
He is already the Minister of the Ministry of War, why should he also masturbate Zhang Yongde? If so, then Zhang Yongde has lost more than he has gained. Many people turned their attention to Zhang Yongde, but Zhang Yongde seemed very calm.
Zhao Kuangyi has been very active recently, whether in front of the emperor or in the court. At this time, he thought about it and took the initiative to speak: "Your Majesty, things are prioritized. When in danger, Inspector Zhang has the courage to take responsibility without thinking about personal gains or losses.
,Rescuing disasters and rescuing people is the most important thing.
Although there is a slight overstep, there is a reason for it. If this crime is committed, I am afraid that the government and the public will not be convinced. In the future, ministers and ministers will also be timid when encountering problems. They will inevitably be slow and lose time."
Speaking of this, Zhao Kuangyi paused for a moment and then said: "However, the rules set by the imperial court cannot be ignored. I think that at this time, we can treat it as a special case, and your Majesty can show mercy outside the law and forgive Inspector Zhang's transgression. Your Majesty Jin
Once you open your mouth, you can have the best of both worlds!”
"This is a solution!" After hearing what Zhao Kuangyi said, Emperor Liu smiled softly and said: "However, special matters can certainly be handled specially, but once this case is opened, everyone will use it as an excuse in the future to pretend to be critical.
, kill first and report later, if things continue like this, wouldn’t the system and rules be in vain?”
Speaking of this, I didn’t know that Emperor Liu had other intentions. He guessed it, and Zhao Kuangyi directly raised his hand and asked for instructions: "Your Majesty is wise, but I forgive my stupidity. Please tell me how to deal with it properly."
Zhao Kuangyi pretended to be humble again. With his intelligence, how could he not think of it and just support Emperor Liu? Emperor Liu did not beat around the bush, grinned slightly and said: "This can be done, it's a special case, but that's it.
An example!"
"As for the future! Find another way!"
Speaking of this, Emperor Liu suddenly looked at Liu Jichang of Kaifeng Prefecture, who had been having a very difficult time recently: "How many fires occur in Tokyo every year?"
When asked, Liu Jichang did not dare to be negligent and immediately replied: "Your Majesty, according to my investigation, there are about three hundred water leaks in Tokyo every year."
"There are so many?" Emperor Liu was a little surprised.
Liu Jichang replied: "Your Majesty, although there are many fires, none of them can compare with this fire disaster!"
"Is this what I'm asking you?" Emperor Liu glared at him and said, "How do you deal with fires on weekdays?"
"Reply to Your Majesty!" Liu Jichang braced himself and answered: "According to the public security regulations promulgated during the Qianyou period, the government has a fire brigade, which will be dispatched immediately in case of fire. At the same time, petty officials from various districts also monitor the streets and alleys.
During the period, a pool of water and a water tank were always prepared in case of fire. Therefore, there was a lot of water leakage, but it did not cause a major disaster."
Liu Jichang's words are a bit evasive. There are so many fires in Tokyo every year, leading to property losses and a lot of casualties. It's just spread out.
In such a big city, it is normal for several fires to occur. Even if the losses are greater, the people who suffer are still the common people. Even if they are themselves to blame, they can only report ordinary records, but it will not alarm Emperor Liu.
Although Emperor Liu was aware of the doorway here, he did not get to the bottom of it and continued to embarrass Liu Jichang. His purpose was not this. Of course, he also had some awareness of the public security regulations regarding fires he proposed.
Following Liu Jichang's words, Emperor Liu sighed with emotion: "Obviously, from the imperial court to the government, it was not that there was no lack of vigilance in the past. However, judging from this incident, the past regulations only applied to small fires and minor disasters. Ordinary matters, such as
The fire is anxious and the toilet strength is insufficient!"
"According to my wishes, under the framework of the Inspection Department, a separate team will be set up to deal with such emergencies, not just fires, but also floods, rains, and riots. They can also be dispatched at the right time!" Finally, Emperor Liu said
Come up with his ideas.
As soon as Emperor Liu made this suggestion, the ministers present did not care what they thought in their hearts, but they acted extremely well on their faces, and they all praised him for his wisdom and proper consideration.
Probably a little tired of it, Emperor Liu felt that such a reaction was quite boring, and sighed: "Only after experiencing such unforgettable pain can we reflect and seek changes. Learn from the pain and gain wisdom. Yanqing
The death of so many soldiers and civilians was a disaster. Even if we want to give them an explanation, we must take measures to prevent the disaster from happening again. This is a lesson learned at the cost of one's life!"
"Your Majesty's concern for the country and the people is greatly admired by the ministers!" Wang Zhu spoke first this time and continued to sing praises to Emperor Liu. Zhao Kuangyi on the side was about to open his mouth, glanced at him, and swallowed it down.
"Your Majesty's suggestion is very good. It can definitely strengthen the court's response to such emergencies!" Liu Yang also stood up and said solemnly.
Looking at Liu Yang, Emperor Liu said: "The number of people is set at one thousand for the time being. The specific regulations and organizational details will be drawn up by you, the ministers, the Privy Council, and the Inspection Department, and we will see the effect!"
"yes!"
"As you command!"
"You all should stand down! The prince stays!" Emperor Liu felt increasingly exhausted. After only discussing for a while, he felt tired, his posture collapsed, and he waved his hands to everyone.
The ministers filed out, and the Chongzheng Hall quickly became quiet. Emperor Liu leaned slightly on the imperial desk, propped his head, and remained silent. When Liu Yang saw this, he called softly: "Dad!"
Emperor Liu rubbed his forehead and looked at him: "Sit!"
After Liu Yang sat down, Emperor Liu slowly said: "Remember, the so-called system and rules are only used to restrain ministers and people. As a monarch, you can be strict with yourself, but you cannot be completely trapped in it. Everything depends on the situation.
What are the pros and cons!”
Liu Yang was stunned for a moment, then said solemnly: "Yes, I remember it!"
Regardless of whether Liu Yang heard it or not, he was just expressing his feelings. He sat up, changed his posture, and sighed softly: "Then Han Derang has been staying in Tokyo for a long time!"
Liu Yang nodded: "Twenty days have passed!"
Emperor Liu said leisurely: "Do you know their purpose of coming?"
"According to the report of the vassal envoy Xiao Siwen, they came here to request peace from the Han Dynasty, restore exchanges between the two countries, and intend to establish permanent friendship with the Han Dynasty and avoid conflicts!" Liu Yang thought of Xiao Siwen's report a few days ago and answered slowly.
.
"It seems that they can't stand it any longer in Mobei!" Emperor Liu smiled, and then said coldly: "It's just that the disaster of Dangxiang is right in front of us. The imperial court spent more than twenty years to
It failed to influence them, let alone the Khitan. They came thousands of miles south, but they just wanted something from the big man. How can they be credulous when they say eternal peace is good?"
