Chapter 231 The Yellow River Breach

Chang'an, the Tai Chi Hall of the Imperial Palace!

Li Er slapped the memorial on the case!
"check!

You must find out for me why the Yellow River burst suddenly! "

Fang Xuanling came out of the class and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. This year, there has been continuous rainfall in the north. It is not surprising that there will be floods. The Yellow River burst has happened since ancient times. It is normal that this natural disaster cannot be stopped!"

Before Li Er could refute, someone among the courtiers stood up!

"Your Majesty, I think Mr. Fang's words are wrong!

There is a lot of water in the north this year, and the Yellow River burst?Why is there nothing wrong with other places, but Luoyang?Why is Luoyang defenseless?Floods are not created overnight!

And it turned out to be an urgent report from the guard Qu Tutong. Why didn't the memorial of Luoyang Lingyin come? "It turned out to be Wei Zheng, Wei Xuancheng, the first admonisher of the Tang Dynasty!
"That's right, what Xuan Cheng said is reasonable, there is obviously something wrong with this matter!

This time the Yellow River burst, certainly not all natural disasters!

Xuancheng, you go!Go to Luoyang, find out why, who is harming the country!
I will give you the privilege of the imperial decree. Once you find out who is involved in the case, regardless of the rank of the official, whether it is a commoner or a member of the emperor, you will be severely punished by the national law. You are allowed to do things cheaply, but you can kill first and then act!Insufficient manpower, find Qu Tutong!Transfer troops! "

"Sir, take the lead!"

The people in the court looked at each other, how could they give such a great privilege?

Soon some clever and experienced officials realized that His Majesty wanted to take advantage of this catastrophe to eliminate the forces with two hearts in Luoyang!

Luoyang is the eastern capital, and the Li family of the Tang Dynasty made their fortunes in Taiyuan and Chang'an, so Luoyang is not the foundation of the Li family, but has always been the remnants of the Yang family, Wang Shichong and other veterans. It is easy to go wrong in Luoyang.

Because of this, Datang has always sent heavy troops to guard, and other places have 3 defenders, while Luoyang is located in the center of Datang, not afraid of foreign enemies, but there are a full [-] people defending the city!
"Wuji, according to the emergency plan, too many people have been affected by this flood, so we must provide them with support from Chang'an. Emergency supplies will be dispatched there, and you will go there yourself!"

"I obey my orders!"

The matter of the Great Court Meeting spread throughout Chang'an City in less than an hour, and the public opinion that Datang was once again in disaster soon became popular!

Some thoughtful people's thoughts came alive again, they were very good at summarizing, saying that Emperor Li Er of the Tang Dynasty had been in power for a few months, and he attacked the Turks in the north, resulting in the massacre of [-] Yunzhou people!

In the first year of Zhenguan, a rare drought and locust plague occurred!

In the second year of Zhenguan, floods began to occur again?The Yellow River burst!

Obviously, this is what God is showing!
Although this gossip is only verbal speculation, it has to be said that its brilliance lies in leaving room for people to think. A series of events are obviously related to the current emperor, but they have not been explained clearly in the rumors!

Li Er looked at the secret report in his hand and said with a sneer, "I don't raise the sword, so no one knows how powerful I am? I thought that killing the Yang family and the Wang family would wake them up for a while, so why aren't they afraid?

Send someone to find out which one it is this time? "

In Chang'an City, Honglu Temple has always been a place to receive envoys from various countries, and now there are envoys from Western Turks living in it!

After Naxi Turkic Zhenzhu got the credential, although the task was completed, he did not rush back. Instead, he sent someone to bring the credential back to Western Turkic. He stayed in Chang'an by himself, preparing to meet the officials of the Tang Dynasty, and then took the opportunity to do some activities !
The envoy Zhenzhu smiled sinisterly at his deputy, "Hey, in this flood, at least tens of thousands of people will die in Datang and slaughter our people? God will not let him go!
Has the news been released? "

The deputy replied respectfully, "Well, we have the protection of the wolf god, but their Tang Dynasty has been frequently punished by heaven!
General, you are brilliant, now the news has spread in Chang'an, and even ordinary people in the market know that your conclusion is very reasonable!

It's just that the subordinates don't understand, what are the benefits of doing this?

If you offend the emperor of Tang Dynasty, I'm afraid..."

"What are you afraid of? What about the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty? Although he is as vicious as a tiger, how can he find us with such unsubstantiated and empty words!

Moreover, spreading such rumors seems to be of no benefit to us, but in fact it is not!
With such news, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will first suspect that some of his own people want to rebel, hehe, and then he will go to pay the people of the Tang Dynasty, so that there will be massacres and civil strife among them, and it can make them kill each other, isn't it? Is it good for us? " Zhenzhu explained with confidence.

"Well, yes, you are brilliant, General!
However, we are here on a mission, would it be unsafe to act like this without authorization? "

Zhenzhu looked at this timid deputy envoy, waved her hand and said, "No, Dahan wished that there would be many dead people in Tang Dynasty, so as to avenge our people, nothing will happen!

And as long as the Tang Dynasty is in chaos, we will be able to find officials who can help me Turks! "

In Zhongnan Academy, Bai Fan's military training is already on the right track, so he doesn't just stare at the training ground every day, and just leave it to a group of generals he found, and the place where he stays the most is in his own dean's small courtyard. Because, the weather is too hot!

This day Sun Simiao came to look for Bai Fan!

"Junior brother, the old Taoist is going to take the children who are studying medicine at the academy to Luoyang. The Yellow River in Luoyang breached forty miles. The disaster is estimated to be serious, and the weather is so hot that it is very easy to cause plague!"

Bai Fan, who was still sipping tea leisurely, suddenly regained his energy!

"The Yellow River burst in Luoyang? When did it happen? Well, why did it happen? Wasn't it the embankment that was built last year?"

"I don't know about these old Taoists, but the news came from the Taoist just now, and the court should have already got the news!"

"Then I will go with Senior Brother Sun. Luoyang is the center of the Great Tang Dynasty. There must be no plague!"

Sun Simiao shook his head, "No need, as long as you ask people from the beggar gang to help. After all, Luoyang is the only place to take care of my brother. The academy has a heavy task now, and we can't do without you!"

After sending Sun Simiao away, Bai Fan recruited people from the Beggars' Clan to order everything, whether it was manpower or food and medicinal materials, to go to Luoyang for disaster relief. Thanks to the Beggars' Clan who robbed Cui's [-]% of the medicinal materials business, otherwise it would definitely cost a lot to buy medicinal materials for disaster relief. Small!

The arrival of the disciples of the beggar gang also brought a piece of news to Bai Fan!
"Master, someone in Chang'an City is secretly spreading rumors, saying that in the past three years in the Tang Dynasty, there were military disasters, droughts, and now floods, all of which have something to do with His Majesty!"

Bai Fan smiled, "Who is so bold? Have you forgotten that His Majesty kills people without blinking an eye? Hehe, His Majesty must have found out without our help!"

The man shook his head, "No! The person who spread the rumors this time is special, he seems to be from Honglu Temple, and he is dressed as a barbarian!
Elder Song said, if it is really a foreign envoy, then I am afraid that His Majesty will not kill anyone! "

Bai Fan didn't seem to be able to react, "Who? Foreign envoys? Those who are still living in Honglu Temple at this time can only be people from Western Turks. Has that Zhenzhu left yet? Are you looking for trouble here to kill yourself?
However, as far as his brain is concerned, he still wants to make me feel civil strife in the Tang Dynasty?
No, Western Turk is too bad, you need to make trouble for him, I will write a letter to Prince Li Daozong of Shuofang, and you send someone to send it to me quickly! "
