In Qin Jiyan's view, finding the cause of the earthquake at this time is far less important than relocating the victims.
Things have priorities, and the cause of the earthquake can be investigated at any time, but the resettlement of the victims cannot be delayed. If tens of thousands of victims are not resettled, there will be chaos, and this is not what Qin Jiyan wants to see.
However, the court officials did not think so. Not only Liu Zhengqing, but also Feng Shoufu and others also believed that it was more important to find out the cause of the earthquake.
Only by finding out the cause of the earthquake and letting the people know why the earthquake occurred can the people feel at ease. Otherwise, even if the victims are resettled, there will still be chaos.
How can the world be at peace if the people's hearts are uneasy?
Without giving an explanation to the people of the world and giving them peace of mind, even if the houses were rebuilt, the people who were frightened by the earthquake would not dare to live in them.
The courtiers agreed that the cause of the earthquake should be investigated first and then the victims resettled.
Qin Jiyan admitted that what the ministers said made sense, but it would inevitably take more time to find out the reasons first and then resettle the people. And now he really doesn't have time, but...
The courtiers will not go as he wants, and the people of the world will not go as he wants. Even the victims want to know the cause of the earthquake, not to be resettled.
In the face of the general trend of the world, Qin Jiyan had to give in, and argued with Chao Ju for a long time, and finally reached an agreement to resettle the victims while letting Qin Tian monitor the cause of the earthquake.
Both sides took a step back, and the courtiers were very satisfied. You know, they have not seen the emperor give in since he ascended the throne. This is the first time the emperor has given in. Although it is only half a step, the courtiers are still very excited. They believe this is
This is the first time the emperor has given in, but it will never be the last time the emperor gives in.
After the court, many people secretly looked at Liu Zhengqing's group, with envy and jealousy in their eyes.
I envy their courage and dare to challenge the emperor. I envy their good luck. Even if they survived the earthquake, they actually performed meritorious deeds and became heroes in the hearts of the people, so much so that even the emperor had to give in.
They scored three points.
"Life is so good. If there had been no earthquake, they would have gone to the city gate to pick up the emperor, and they would have definitely made the emperor dissatisfied. I'm afraid they wouldn't even be able to keep their official positions at that time, and how could they be as prosperous as they are now."
"Master Liu is really lucky this time. No one thought that an earthquake would happen that day. With this contribution, no one can touch Master Liu unless he makes a big mistake in the future."
The earthquake made Liu Zhengqing successful, giving them huge influence among the people and their own voice in the court.
If the emperor needs to establish an image of loving the people like a son, he must treat Liu Zhengqing favorably who shares the same hardships with the people.
This is politics, personal preferences sometimes don't matter.
"It has nothing to do with fate. If it were you, even if you were at the center of the earthquake, you might not be able to make meritorious deeds." Not everyone has the courage of Liu Zhengqing, who dares not to run when an earthquake occurs, but to stay at the scene.
You know, today's officials value life more than anything else. When encountering any natural disaster, the first thing they do is run away without caring about the lives of the people.
Although Liu Zhengqing encountered an earthquake due to his "good fortune", it is not all because of his "good fortune" that he is where he is today.
He took a huge risk by staying at the earthquake scene. After all, no one knew if the earthquake would end. No one knew if standing there, he would be buried by a collapsed house the next moment.
However, Liu Zhengqing did have a "good fortune". If he had a bad fate, he would not have survived, and he would not be here today. You must know that he is the biggest beneficiary of this earthquake.
The courtiers chatted in twos and threes, some were envious and some admired him.
They used to look down on Mr. Liu who was causing trouble everywhere, thinking that he would be dealt with by the emperor soon, but they didn't want the situation to change drastically. God actually helped him, which is really embarrassing.
Qin Tian Jian got the order, no matter how unwilling he was, he still had to go and investigate. After three days of struggling like this, the relief materials were ready and the plan to resettle the victims was made. No matter how unwilling Qin Tian Jian was, he still had to go
Report the "reason" because the emperor is unwilling to wait.
In the past few days, the Qintian Supervisor thought about several reasons. After several discussions, they finally settled on a reason that they thought was quite reliable. However, they did not dare to announce it without permission, but gave the emperor a hint first.
.
The fold was sent to Qin Jiyan, but he was quickly beaten back without giving a reason.
Qin Tianjian's eyes were dark when he received the zhezi. After much hesitation, he grabbed the eunuch who gave him the zhezi and stuffed him a red envelope. "I hope my father-in-law can help me clear up my doubts. Is there any dissatisfaction after seeing the zhezi?"
?”
It has been a custom since ancient times that earthquakes must be related to the royal family. The emperor refused to admit that he had been immoral, so they had to find another scapegoat. After searching for a long time, the Qintian Prison found the Crown Prince Rong.
It is natural for Prince Rong's son to seek rebellion, and it is natural for God to bring down natural disasters.
But, the emperor is not satisfied!
If the emperor is not satisfied, the matter cannot be settled and they will still have to think about it.
The eunuch accepted the benefit, weighed it, and with a bright smile on his face, "The Holy Master read the document and was very unhappy. He said that the treasonous member of the royal family was not the only one who was Prince Rong."
What this means is that Qin Tianjian’s reasons are not wrong, but they should not be directed at any one person, but should include all those in the royal family who are scheming against him.
People who don't know about it won't understand Qin Jiyan's intention, but anyone who knows the inside story can guess that Qin Jiyan is targeting Jing Yan.
Jing Yan's identity is an open secret in the eyes of some people, and what he is doing now is no different from treason. Qin Jiyan asked Qin Tianjian to obscure the person who conspired against him, just to prepare to take advantage of this matter in the future.
Attack Jing Yan.
You know, he was blackmailed by Jing Yan and wrote a statement proving Jing Yan's identity.
Although Qin Tianjian was a person in the emperor's hands, they did not know about Jing Yan and could not guess Qin Jiyan's intentions, but this did not prevent them from acting according to Qin Jiyan's wishes.
Soon, Qin Tianjian wrote the zhezi. After Qin Jiyan read it, he threw the zhezi back again and asked him to mention it at the court meeting.
Early the next morning, Qin Tianjian proposed to the court that there was a false emperor star that was causing trouble in the world and made God dissatisfied, so God sent natural disasters.
As soon as the words "Pseudo Emperor Star" came out, everyone who knew Jing Yan's identity was stunned, and a few of them were so shocked that their backs became wet with sweat.
It was obvious that their emperor was going to take action against Jing Yan.
If this reason is established and made known to the world, the words False Emperor Star are like a brand, firmly branded on Jing Yan. The possibility of Jing Yan relying on his identity in the future will be greatly reduced.
As expected, he is an emperor. Either he doesn't take action, or once he takes action, he will cut off all retreats and give no chance for counterattack.
Jing Yan, I'm afraid it will be difficult to take another step forward...
