Chapter 79: Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs

 While Li Shimian was suffering, he also secretly glanced at Beilin next to him and found that she was stunned.

Hum!

Young people really don’t know the heights of the world. If you fight with me, you are still far behind!

I am an important minister of the four dynasties. Just one word in front of the emperor can make you die without a burial place.

Plop!

Beilin knelt on the ground, bowed her head and said: "Long live my emperor! Long live!"

Li Shimian was even more proud, wiping tears and said: "I ask the emperor to severely punish this person to correct the dynasty!"

Under the gaze of everyone, Zhu Qizhen said: "Beilin, why are you so scared? What did you tell me yesterday?"

Beilin lowered her head and said: "The student was drunk yesterday. I didn't know that the emperor was here in person, so his words were a little abrupt. Please forgive me."

Hearing this, Li Shimian's expression changed. What happened?

Did this guy meet with the emperor yesterday?

No wonder he dares to be so arrogant, Jin Yiwei still doesn't care, if it's broken, the situation is not good...

"I just want to ask you, how sure are you of what you said yesterday?"

Beilin hesitated for a moment, then made up her mind and said: "The student is sure that there is an earthquake in the northwest and it will happen soon!"

"Hmph!" Li Shimian sneered, "Young boy, you have only been studying for a few days and you dare to talk nonsense here?"

Not to be outdone, Beilin scolded: "Old man, what's the use of reading so many books?"

"I..."

Li Shimian subconsciously wanted to reach out, but when he saw Beilin's fierce eyes, he drew back.

"Beilin!" Zhu Qizhen put away the smile on his face and said sternly, "This is a serious matter, so you have to think clearly before speaking!"

"Students dare to risk their lives. The vision in the northwest is definitely a sign of an earthquake. Please ask the emperor to issue an order immediately to evacuate the people and minimize the losses as much as possible!"

"Absurd, simply ridiculous!"

Li Shimian sneered repeatedly, and then said: "Since ancient times, natural and man-made disasters have been warnings from God. When you say there is an earthquake in the northwest, do you mean that the emperor has misbehaved and acted unfairly?"

Hearing this, Beilin broke into a cold sweat unconsciously. Since the emperor returned from the Northern Expedition, there have been several major cases in the capital, especially the Shanxi-Shang Tong thief case that has caused a lot of fuss recently, and at least thousands of people have been implicated. If

If an earthquake occurs at this juncture, doesn't it mean that the emperor's actions have angered God?

However, there is nothing wrong with my observations...

Seeing Beilin confused, Zhu Qizhen sighed softly and said, "Li Jianzheng, I want to ask a question."

Li Shimian suddenly felt a lot of radiance on his face and said: "Your Majesty, please speak!"

"Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and treat all things as stupid dogs. What does this sentence mean?"

Li Shimian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "If a husband's dog has not been laid out, he should put it in a suitcase, use a scarf with embroidery, and give a blessing to the corpse to capture it; if it has been laid out, travelers will trample on its head."

The ridge is just taken and cooked by Su."

"The Qing family might as well be more straightforward."

Li Shimian nodded and said: "Heaven and earth do not act emotionally and treat all things in the world equally. In other words, no matter what all things become, it is the behavior of all things themselves and has nothing to do with heaven and earth. Heaven and earth let nature take its course, and everything is as it should be.

The wind blows into the night, moistening things silently."

Zhu Qizhen asked again: "Do you think this sentence is correct?"

"Back to the Emperor, this sentence comes from Laozi's book. Laozi is the teacher of the sage Confucius, so it can't be wrong."

"Okay!" Zhu Qizhen asked again, "Since heaven and earth treat all things equally, why do disasters happen?"

"This...this..."

Li Shimian was immediately in trouble and had to say: "Since it is a secret from heaven, I dare not speak nonsense."

Zhu Qizhen smiled faintly and said: "The Qing family first said that heaven and earth have no emotions, and everything in the world is allowed to take its course, and then they said that God will bring disasters. Which sentence is right?"

Li Shimian was really speechless. After thinking about it, he could only shake his head and said: "I am stupid, please forgive me!"

"God's warning? I give you a salary every day to ask you to accuse me?" Zhu Qizhen suddenly changed his face and said coldly, "After the Qing family returns, think carefully, there are still people in the Qintian Prison

There is no need to exist!"

"Old minister will die!"

Li Shimian was so frightened that he had no choice but to bury his head low.

"Beilene!"

Beilin was frightened and quickly replied: "The students are here!"

"I will tell you ugly things first. If the words you say are really alarmist, I will punish you for the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Bei Lin said with determination: "Students dare to guarantee it with their lives!"

"Okay, come with me to the Imperial Study Room!"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Qizhen stepped down from the dragon throne and said without looking back: "King Xi, continue your morning court!"

"Obey!"

Everyone just watched the emperor leave, while Li Shimian was still kneeling on the ground, at a loss.

Zhu Qiyu sighed and said: "Li Jianzheng, get up!"

"Old minister, veteran... I am old..."

Li Shimian suddenly choked up and couldn't say the next words.

Zhu Qizhen took Beilin out of Fengtian Palace and went straight to the Imperial Study Room.

"I believe in you, don't trick me!"

"Everything the students said is true!"

"Okay!" Zhu Qizhen pointed to the memorials on the side and said, "These are all the memorials from Yan'an Prefecture and Yulin Prefecture in the past month. Aren't you looking for clues? I will give you one day. Tomorrow morning, I will

Want to know the result!"

Seeing a table full of memorials, Beilin did not appear timid, but her eyes shone.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. Even if students don't eat or sleep, they still have to find clues!"

After finishing speaking, he opened the first memorial book with great interest, scanned it quickly, then shook his head, put it aside, and picked up the second book.

Zhu Qizhen quietly retreated and said to Wynn, "Just wait here. If he has any needs, try to satisfy them."

Wynn nodded repeatedly with two big dark circles under his eyes, but he was secretly complaining in his heart, I haven't slept all night, and I have to stay here to serve others and not let others live!

"Also, find someone to go to the Three Thousand Battalion camp and tell me that nothing can be achieved by practicing at the camp. Let Li Zhen prepare for a field training!"

Wynn nodded, shook his head, and asked: "Where is the field battle that the emperor mentioned...?"

"You don't have to worry about this, I will arrange it when the time comes."

"Oh, okay, I'll send someone over right now!"

Maybe it was because he got up a little early today, so Zhu Qizhen went back to catch up on his sleep.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Hua En came to Qianqing Palace out of breath. It seemed that the matter was urgent.

Zhu Qizhen just woke up and asked: "What's the matter?"

"Master Bei said...he found it!"

Zhu Qizhen raised his head and looked out the window. It was only noon and Beilin had read all the memorials?

"I'll go over and take a look!"

"No, Your Majesty!" Wynn took a breath and said, "He's here and waiting outside the palace."

"Xuan!"

Immediately afterwards, Beilin hurried over and kowtowed.

"Students kowtow to the emperor..."

"Okay, okay!" Zhu Qizhen couldn't wait any longer and said quickly, "Have you found the exact location?"

Bei Lin held the five memorials in her arms and said: "Back to the emperor, the students have found out that the earthquake occurred in Suidezhou, roughly centered in Mizhi County!"

"Mizhi County? What evidence is there?"

"Your Majesty, please look!"

Bei Lin took out the memorial and said: "This is from Yulin Mansion. Half a month ago, I submitted a memorial saying that the water in several wells in Mizhi County suddenly rose at the same time and gushes out in large quantities. This is a precursor to an earthquake."

"Any more?"

"Yes, the memorial in Suidezhou also mentioned that the springs suddenly dried up and yellow mist appeared for many days. Also, the memorial in Yan'an Prefecture said that the light was seen in the north. According to students' speculation, it was roughly in the Mizhi area.



Zhu Qizhen was pacing back and forth and suddenly asked: "You can read so many memorials in just half a day?"

"The Emperor didn't know something. The student only looked for information related to the earthquake. When he read the memorial, he glanced at ten lines and ignored the other content. Naturally, it was much faster than the Emperor's review of the memorial."

Zhu Qizhen nodded and asked again: "I remember you said that the earthquake occurred in about ten days to half a month?"

Bai Lin frowned, shook her head and said: "The date the student mentioned yesterday was based on observing the celestial phenomena. Looking at the information today, I'm afraid it won't be more than ten days, seven or eight days at most."

"Seven or eight days?"

Zhu Qizhen's expression became more and more solemn. After thinking about it, he suddenly shouted: "Fan Zhong!"
