At the court meeting, he completely ignored the officials' impeachment of the Three Dukes. Many ministers believed that natural disasters were caused by unscrupulous people occupying virtuous positions. As long as these unscrupulous people were cleared away, there would be no natural disasters and the people would
Anle, several ministers who spoke like this were all dragged out by Zhang He, and there was no news from them anymore. What the emperor wanted was a real solution.
Among the ministers, many people still put forward good ideas.
"Your Majesty, I think that the temple's current transportation and relief roads are blocked. It is better to send Yangqing and Qingzhou to transport supplies to Youji by sea. As for the supplies of these two states, the temple will definitely make up for it..." Xun You frowned.
said with brows.
"Your Majesty, it's snowing heavily in Youzhou, I'm afraid it's hard for big ships to dock..."
"Then it will be lucky to work with the three Koreas, so that Cao Cao can help with disaster relief..."
"When the blocked road is opened as soon as possible, I think we can send Sun Jian to lead the army to help the local area with disaster relief and the important task of opening the road!" Yuan Feng said this. As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Wen said with some displeasure:
"The Northern and Southern armies are powerful forces. They are deployed for war, how can they be deployed for civilian disasters?"
"Taiwei! The food and salary that your southern army receives comes from the people? The people are the most important thing in the country. You are not worthy of the position of the three princes with your words!" Yuan Feng shouted angrily.
The emperor frowned and said without thinking: "Instruct Sun Jian to lead the infantry battalion to the north to help with disaster relief. The necessary materials and tools must be complete. If anyone dares to neglect this matter... I will not be lenient!!"
"As commanded!!"
In December, in Yuyang Quanzhou, a yellow dragon appeared in the well.
At this time, the entire temple was worried about the recurring snow disasters. Since the sixth year of Jianning, this snow disaster has become a major problem for the Han Dynasty to worry about, especially in the northern border areas. The disasters are increasing day by day. In the Hebei and Qinghai regions, snow disasters have appeared again.
The locust plague and drought, fortunately the local granaries were well prepared, did not cause any major events, but they still made the emperor worried.
The ministers were summoned to discuss. Apart from continuing to set up granaries in the local area and increasing the farming area, the ministers could not give any good ideas. The emperor was worried, and so were the ministers. They could only lament that fortunately the emperor was wise today.
If the emperor were to be a more mediocre emperor, they would not dare to continue thinking about it.
When he first received the Book of Heaven, the Emperor was so excited and proud. This gave him the feeling that God is in my destiny and that God is helping him. When he was a little fat man, he often thought about how to live up to God.
Deep love has made great achievements for a generation, but the more he grows up, the more this heavenly book brings him fear and uneasiness.
According to the records in the Book of Heaven, natural disasters continued, the people exchanged their sons for food, and Tan Shihuai even destroyed the Northern Army. He could only set up the Eighth School Lieutenant and recruit new troops. At this time, a large-scale rebellion would break out.
, and at that time, the Northern Army was gone, and the temple could only urgently summon cavalry from the Sanhe area, recruit troops from the Xiongnu, and Wuhuan, and begin to quell the rebellion.
He killed Tan Shihuai. Tan Shihuai was a general. Even if he killed Zhang Huan, the emperor still appreciated his ability and was not afraid to use him. However, the record in the heavenly book eliminated Tan Shihuai's way of survival.
, the emperor was afraid that the Northern Army would eventually be destroyed in his hands, so he hurriedly executed him. Later, when he arrived at Zhangjiao, Cao Cao was no longer so impatient.
He has more than 60,000 elite soldiers in his hands, so what should he fear?
However, this series of natural disasters oppressed the sensitive heart of the emperor. In the eighteen years of his reign, the emperor could not relax for a moment. The records in the heavenly book oppressed him all the time. Such a heavy mood was broken today.
, no matter whether what is recorded in this heavenly book is a heavenly secret or not, I will never be afraid or worried anymore!
After the discussion, large-scale disaster relief began, and for this purpose, the Northern and Southern armies were even dispatched.
Xinzhou, Qinzhong County
Heavy snow is blowing outside the house, and smoke is constantly coming out of the small houses.
In the county town, there are no roads at all, and no one can be seen. No one dares to walk outside in such a cold winter. On the road, a group of people are shivering forward, and their lower limbs are almost stuck in the heavy snow.
, they used both hands to cut through the heavy snow before they could move forward. They held large parcels in their arms. When they saw an inhabited house, their followers sent the parcel inside.
"Yang...Yang...Mr. Yang..."
"We can do these things, so how can you come here in person?" Some officials said, and a burst of hot air suddenly spewed out from their mouths. The words were trembling, the wind and snow howled in the ears, and Yang Qiu took the lead.
Walking ahead, I didn't hear what he said clearly. The official took a few steps closer to him, amplified his voice, and repeated it again.
Yang Qiu slowly turned his head back, his face flushed, and hot air kept coming out of his mouth. The official saw the displeasure in his eyes, and quickly lowered his head without saying anything. Yang Qiu continued to move forward. He did not have the strength to speak.
No, he didn't want these officials to waste their energy on words. Xinzhou was the most severely affected area in the Han Dynasty.
He sent almost all the officials to provide disaster relief everywhere, and used all the resources stored in the new state, but he was not able to prevent any of the people from freezing to death. He wanted to ask for help, but several surrounding states were all hit by disasters.
, no one could lend a helping hand, and the temple's assistance was ruthlessly blocked by heavy snow. When no one was available, he personally went out and rushed to the most severely affected areas to provide disaster relief.
What he just distributed were some cotton clothes, ink charcoal, and dry firewood.
As for the food, the distribution has been completed a long time ago. There is no food left in the granary in Xinzhou. Fortunately, there are many livestock here. By slaughtering the livestock, the people will not go hungry.
In the ice and snow, the entire county is deserted. Even the barking of dogs can no longer be heard. The green smoke is billowing, but it is covered by the snow and cannot be seen clearly. Yang Qiu and his group of seven people, carrying packages on their backs, are advancing alone.
His face is red and his lips are blue and white.
They wore thick cotton clothes, but they still could not withstand the biting cold winter. Thick snow accumulated on their shoulders, heads, and clothes. Every time they took a step, these snowflakes jumped and fell with them.
The official trembled violently, possessed himself, touched his legs, and shouted in panic: "Yangjun... Yangjun, I seem to have lost my feet... my feet..."
"Huh?" Yang Qiu turned his head.
.............................
The next day, the sun shone hard on the ground through the vast amounts of falling snow.
The quiet Qinzhong County is still covered by snow.
Among the white snow, a group of people can be vaguely seen.
Most of the seven people's bodies were covered by white snow, but they were motionless. They all closed their eyes, wore thick cotton clothes, carried packages on their backs, and kept moving forward. One of them lowered himself in pain and held his right hand.
Legs, while Yang Qiu, the leader, turned his head and stared behind.
Under the sunlight, they are like jade statues, crystal clear and reflecting halo.
Soon, people in the county discovered these seven statues.
People told each other, and more and more people were watching. They were silent, and no one could speak.
Soon, choking sounds appeared among the crowd, and the sound gradually became louder.
"thump..."
One person knelt in front of these statues, his tears melting into the snow on the ground.
I wonder how sad the great sages who sit by the fire, worrying about the country and the people, would feel if they knew that they could no longer use the most vicious words to attack this evil and cruel official in the future?
