Chapter 83 Heaven and Earth are not benevolent

While Li Shimian was selling miserably, he still didn't forget to take a sneak peek at Belin beside him, and found that she was already frightened.

snort!
Young people really don't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and you are still far from fighting the old man!

This old man is an important minister of the four dynasties, just one word in front of the emperor can make you die without a place to bury you.

Pfft!
Belin knelt down on the ground, bowed her head and said, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Li Shimian was even more proud, and wiped his tears and said: "The old minister asks the emperor to punish this person severely, so as to set the court order!"

Under everyone's gaze, Zhu Qizhen said: "Belin, why are you so cowardly? What did you tell me yesterday?"

Bellin lowered her head and said: "The student was drunk yesterday. I don't know if the emperor came in person. He spoke a little abruptly. Please forgive me."

Hearing this, Li Shimian's expression changed, what's the matter?
Did this kid meet the emperor yesterday?
No wonder he dared to be so arrogant, Jin Yiwei didn't care, it's broken, the situation is not good...

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

Belin hesitated for a moment, then made up her mind, and said, "Students are sure that there will be an earthquake in the northwest, and it will happen soon!"

"Hmph!" Li Shimian sneered, "Little Huangkou, you have only studied for a few days, and you dare to talk nonsense here?"

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

"I……"

Li Shimian was about to reach out subconsciously, but when he saw Bei Lin's fierce eyes, he retracted it again.

"Belin!" Zhu Qizhen put away the smile on his face and said seriously, "This is a big matter, you have to think it through before you talk about it!"

"Students dare to put their lives on the line. The vision in the northwest is definitely a sign of the earthquake. I also ask the emperor to issue an order immediately to evacuate the people and minimize the loss as much as possible!"

"Ridiculous, simply ridiculous!"

Li Shimian sneered again and again, and then said: "Since ancient times, natural disasters and man-made disasters have always been warnings from the heavens. You said that there was an earthquake in the northwest. Could it be that the emperor misbehaved and acted unfairly?"

Hearing this, Belin 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 recent Shanxi Shangtong robbery case, which has involved at least thousands of people. The earthquake occurred at this juncture. Doesn't it mean that what the emperor did annoyed the heavens?

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

Seeing that Beilin was in a state of confusion, Zhu Qizhen sighed softly and said, "Jianzheng Li, I would like to ask you a question."

Li Shimian immediately felt a lot of brilliance on his face, and said, "Please speak, Your Majesty!"

"Heaven and earth are not benevolent, they treat everything as a straw dog. What does this sentence mean?"

Li Shimian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "When the dog is not old, it is stored in a suitcase, the towel is embroidered with wen, and the corpse is ordered to put it together; when it is old, the traveler tramples on its head." The ridge, the Soviet Union took it and cut it off."

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

Li Shimian nodded and said, "The heaven and the earth don't act emotionally, and they treat everything in the world equally. In other words, no matter what happens to all things, it's their own behavior, which has nothing to do with the heaven and the earth. The heaven and the earth let nature take its course. The wind enters the night, moistening things silently."

Zhu Qizhen asked again: "Does the Qing family think this sentence is correct?"

"Returning to the emperor, this sentence comes from Lao Tzu's book. Lao Tzu is the teacher of the sage Confucius, so naturally he 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 in trouble immediately, so he had to say: "Since it's a secret, the old minister dare not speak nonsense."

Zhu Qizhen smiled lightly, and said: "The Qing family first said that the heaven and the earth have no emotions, and everything in the world goes with its own course, and then said that the sky will send disasters. Which sentence is correct?"

Li Shimian was really speechless, after thinking about it, he shook his head and said: "The old minister is stupid, please forgive me!"

"Heaven warns you? I give you salaries every day, so you can blame me?" Zhu Qizhen suddenly changed his face, and said coldly, "After the Qing family returns, think carefully, Qin Tianjian still has a lot of money. There is no need to exist!"

"The old minister must die!"

Li Shimian was so frightened that he was at a loss, so he had to bury his head low.

"Belin!"

Belin was startled, and hurriedly replied: "The student is here!"

"My ugly words are up front. If what you said is really alarmist, I will punish you for deceiving the emperor!"

Bellin said decisively: "Students dare to guarantee with their lives!"

"Alright then, follow me to the imperial study!"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Qizhen stepped down from the dragon chair and said without looking back: "King Yan, continue to court early!"

"According to the order!"

Everyone watched the emperor leave like this, but Li Shimian was still kneeling on the ground, at a loss.

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

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

Li Shimian choked up suddenly, unable to speak the following words.

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

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

"Everything the students say is true!"

"That's good!" Zhu Qizhen pointed to the memorabilia on the side and said, "This is all the memorabilia in Yan'an Mansion and Yulin Mansion for nearly a month. Aren't you looking for clues? I will give you a day. Tomorrow morning, I will To know the result!"

Seeing a table full of memorabilia, Belin didn't show timidity, instead her eyes lit up.

"Your Majesty, please don't worry, even if the students don't eat or sleep, they still have to find out the clues!"

After finishing speaking, he excitedly opened the first book of memorials, scanned it quickly, then shook his head, put it aside, and picked up the second book.

Zhu Qizhen retreated quietly, and said to Wynn: "You just wait here. If he has any needs, try to meet them."

Wynn nodded with two big dark circles under his eyes, but he was secretly crying in his heart. I haven't slept all night, and I still have to stay here to serve others, so that no one can live!

"Also, find someone to go to the [-]-battalion garrison, and tell me that if you can't do anything in the garrison, let Li Zhen get ready for a field training!"

Wynn nodded, shook his head again, and asked, "Where is the field battle that the emperor said?"

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

"Oh, yes, servant girl, send someone there now!"

Maybe it's because I woke up a little early today, so Zhu Qizhen went back to catch up on sleep.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Wynn came to Qianqing Palace out of breath. It seemed that things were urgent.

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

"Mr. Bei said, he said... he found it!"

Zhu Qizhen raised his head and looked out of the window. It's only noon, and Belin has finished reading the play?

"I'll go and have a look!"

"No, Your Majesty!" Wynn gasped and said, "he's here, just wait outside the hall."

"Xuan!"

Immediately afterwards, Beilen arrived in a hurry, kowtowed and saluted.

"Students kowtow to the emperor..."

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

Belle held the five memorials in her arms and said, "Back to the emperor, the students have found out that the earthquake happened in Suide Prefecture, roughly centered on Mizhi County!"

"Mizhi County? What evidence?"

"Please look, Your Majesty!"

Beilin took out the memorial and said: "This is from Yulin Mansion. Half a month ago, the memorial said that the water in several wells in Mizhi County rose suddenly at the same time and gushed out in large quantities. This is the precursor of the earthquake."

"Any more?"

"Yes, the memorials from Suide Prefecture also mentioned that the springs dried up suddenly, and yellow mist appeared for several days. Also, the memorials from Yan'an Prefecture said that they saw the light of the earth in the north. According to the students' speculation, it was probably in the Mizhi area. "

Zhu Qizhen paced back and forth, and suddenly asked: "So many memorials, have you read them in just half a day?"

"The emperor doesn't know something. The students only look for information related to the earthquake. When reading the memorial, they can see ten lines at a glance, and ignore other content. Naturally, it is 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 student said the date yesterday based on the observation of the celestial phenomena. Looking at the information today, I'm afraid it will not exceed ten days, seven or eight days at most."

"Seven or eight days?"

Zhu Qizhen's expression became more serious, he thought about it, and suddenly shouted: "Fan Zhong!"
