Marry Changle in Datang

Chapter 123 Please Your Majesty, Dispose of the Demon Doctor Qin Wenyuan

Xu Gou was stunned when he heard this.

In fact, it was indeed as Qin Wenyuan said.The people in Kailin County are very strange, as if they are guarding against them.

Xugou thought for a while, and replied: "That's right, wherever Maotu and I go, they all dodge, but they will secretly watch us."

"It's as if they are... watching us."

Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes slightly. Now, his plan for Tianquan is really becoming clearer.

He asked again: "Xugou, I asked you to send a letter to Chang'an with Pigeon Yi yesterday. Has it been delivered?"

Xugou nodded.

Hearing this, Qin Wenyuan took a deep breath and said, "Since it's delivered, then... we can only listen to heaven and do what we want."

"In the next few days, it should be the last moment for Tianquan to give us peace of mind."

"Xugou, please order immediately to let all the people who are traveling with me come back. We will temporarily stay in the inn today and will not go anywhere."

Xu Gou was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "Master, are we not going to Li's house?"

Originally, according to the plan made last night, if Tianquan still didn't take action, then they would go to Li's house to find Li Liu and his father for help.

After all, in Kailin County, these two people are the ones they are most familiar with.

Qin Wenyuan shook his head, "I won't go, I'll just stay in the inn temporarily, these few days, we won't..."

After finishing speaking, Qin Wenyuan came to the window, looked outside under the drizzle, and saw that the streets were deserted and deserted, "Don't go."

At this time, Changle came to Qin Wenyuan's side. The husband and wife were of the same heart, and seemed to have a feeling, knowing that Qin Wenyuan was making a choice now.

She caressed her husband's heart with her small hand, and said lightly: "Husband, no matter how it changes, I will always be by your side, so don't leave me behind."

Hearing this, Qin Wenyuan couldn't help scratching her nose, and whispered softly in her ear: "Little fool, no matter what happens in the future, your place in my heart will never change, and I will always love you until the end of time, the sea is dry and the stone is rotten!"

"You said, how could I leave you?"

Listening to Qin Wenyuan's touching words of love, Chang Le suddenly felt as if he had fallen into a honeypot, it was so sweet!

My anxious heart also settled down.

"Husband, me too, I will always love you forever!"

Chang Le looked up at Qin Wenyuan, his big watery eyes were full of deep love.

The two intertwined their fingers and stared at each other affectionately. Against the background of the raindrops outside the window, the picture looked extremely beautiful!
slam-la-

The heavy rain has been falling, and it has not stopped until late at night, and it is getting bigger and bigger!

Two hours later.

There was a loud thunder and lightning, and Qin Wenyuan was startled from the tea table. He came to the window and found that the heavy rain outside the window was still continuing.

Opening the window, Qin Wenyuan looked at the accumulated water in the courtyard of the inn and frowned. This heavy rain seemed a little unusual!

Qin Wenyuan recalled what he had learned.

It seems that in the first few years of Zhenguan, there was a heavy rainstorm near Chang'an City, which lasted for a month. Flood disasters broke out in countless places in the Tang Dynasty, and millions of people were displaced!

Immediately after the next year, another drought broke out, followed by another plague of locusts!
There are rumors among the people that: Li Shimin launched the Xuanwu Gate to change his position and punished him from heaven.

There are also countless ministers who wrote to Li Shimin to issue an imperial edict to appease the wrath of heaven.

The successive disasters also made His Majesty Li Shimin feel guilty.

As a last resort, he issued an edict of sin against himself, eating fast and praying to Buddha for as long as a month.

These are all things that Qin Wenyuan understands based on historical records, but he doesn't know whether they are true or not.

And now...

Millions of food was robbed by Tianquan, and this unusual heavy rain made him have to think about it.

The Big Dipper, actually...is the organization that troubled Li Shimin?

Qin Wenyuan had a guess in his mind.

At that time, Yuheng used Lu Dinghai to stage a golden cicada escape. He thought that the Big Dipper was targeting the five surnames and Qiwang. Now it seems that Li Shimin is probably their target.

"Husband, what are you thinking?"

At this time, Chang Le came out from the inner room, looked at Qin Wenyuan who was staring out the window in a daze, and asked involuntarily.

Today's rain is too heavy, and there is loud thunder, Changle is also a little worried.

"It's nothing, it's you, ma'am, it's time for you to check your body to see if the smallpox disease still remains."

Qin Wenyuan came back to his senses, got rid of distracting thoughts in his mind, and said to his wife with a smile.

Hearing this, Chang Le made a bitter face, and immediately thought to himself that he shouldn't have come here.

Being caught by Qin Wenyuan as a model again! !
What a pain! !
Today's rain, still from morning to night, did not stop at all.

Five hours, six hours, seven hours, eight hours.
All day long!
Heavy rain!Never stopped! !

Flooding has already begun to occur in several counties near Chang'an City.

The flood broke its embankment and submerged many villages and fertile fields. Many people hid in their homes, waiting for the heavy rain to end soon.

The same is true for the next day and the third day.

Many people near Chang'an City, because their homes were flooded, became homeless refugees and began to pour into Chang'an City.

This is the case in Chang'an City, the imperial capital, not to mention other places.

The situation is getting worse every day.

Not only around Chang'an, floods began to occur in many areas, and more and more refugees began to pour into Chang'an.

The imperial court had no choice but to open warehouses to provide disaster relief.

But
Too many refugees!
Completely beyond the court's imagination.

From tens of thousands to 10,000+, and finally as many as hundreds of thousands!

This is almost the people of a city, and the imperial court's food reserves are simply not enough!

And this time.

The Five Surnames and Seven Wangs saw an opportunity, and they were ready to take action to punish the most feared enemy today, Qin Wenyuan! !
This is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The five surnames Qiwang, especially Lu Quan, the head of the Lu family, all think that God is helping them.

The imperial court is short of food, but their major families have plenty of food, and there is a lot of it! !
The heavy rain has only started for three days now, and the food problem is not obvious yet.

But the Patriarchs of Wuxing Qiwang are keenly aware that as long as they have food, they can make Li Shimin bow his head in the near future and recover the face that Wuxing Qiwang lost before.

Not only that, but they also bought grain on the market at a high price, in order to prevent the court from having enough grain for disaster relief.

If things go on like this, the victims of hunger will inevitably lead to turmoil.

And to quell the turmoil, the emperor had to ask them for food!
It happened to use this as a threat to Li Shimin to deal with Qin Wenyuan who attacked the Lu family at that time and slapped them with five surnames and seven Wangs.

With the order of Qin Wenyuan alone to quell the unrest of hundreds of thousands of disaster victims in the near future, they will definitely believe that Li Shimin will do this!

The life of one person is nothing compared to the abnormal turmoil.

At that time.

As long as Qin Wenyuan is bestowed with death, their aristocratic family will work together to annex the antidote to smallpox, regain control of the destruction of the pharmaceutical market, and then monopolize talents.

Qiwang, the five surnames in Chang'an, had already used this natural disaster to set up a dead end against Qin Wenyuan, and a pair of invisible hands reached out to him in the darkness.

There is a catastrophe in Chang'an, and Qin Wenyuan in Kailin County also has a catastrophe. This is a sign of a catastrophe! !

…………

Palace, Nectar Palace.

Li Shimin and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs are discussing the management of the flood and the victims at the court meeting.

"Report to Your Majesty, the court's granary has bottomed out."

"There are too many disaster victims in Chang'an City. The daily consumption is a huge astronomical figure. It can last for half a month at most before the food is completely out of food."

Chen Shuda, Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, came out and reported to Li Shiminhui.

"So fast?"

"Since this is the case, then in the name of the court, we can buy food from the market to help the victims."

"In addition, money and food were collected from various places in the south of the Yangtze River to help Chang'an survive this catastrophe!"

Li Er gave instructions to the Minister of the Household Department.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there is not much grain left in the market, and the floods have caused the price of grain to soar tenfold!"

"Many grain merchants are buying stored grain at a premium, and are planning to take this opportunity to make a fortune."

Hubu Shangshu said with some grief.

He is one of the few children from a poor family in this court, and he can achieve the current position of Minister of the Household Department, all thanks to his own efforts and Li Shimin's appreciation.

Coming from a poor background, he can understand the feelings of these low-level people very well.

So I am very disgusted and angry with this method.

"and……"

The Minister of the Household Department sighed, and said helplessly: "In the south, for some unknown reason three days ago, the locust plague passed through the border, and the people's winter food was completely devoured by the locusts."

"Not to mention helping us, even self-protection has become a problem."

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard the words, and asked: "I remember that seven days ago, the imperial court transferred millions of food and salaries from various places. I wonder if the people and horses of Dali Temple can be found?"

Wei Zheng came out and sighed, "Your Majesty, not yet."

This time, Li Shimin frowned even deeper.

Southern Locust Plague...

Heavy rain in Chang'an city...

Millions of food and salaries were robbed...

With so many things connected, he has noticed that it seems to have a taste of conspiracy.

Li Shimin suppressed the anger in his heart, and continued to ask: "I don't know, can the grain merchants sell it to my court at a low price, so as to help Datang survive this catastrophe?"

After the voice fell, no one answered, as if Li Shimin had never raised this question.

In fact, not answering is already an answer.

They just couldn't negotiate the price, so they were so helpless.

If the imperial court forcibly seized food, it would be tantamount to breaking the foundation itself. Doing so could indeed help the refugees initially, but it offended the aristocratic family group headed by the five surnames and Qiwang.

This time, under the natural disaster, countless aristocratic families received the news of the five surnames and Qiwang, and a large number of food was stored, and the aristocratic families joined forces, and Yan Ran became a big force.

And if they rob food, they will undoubtedly tear their face directly!

One must know that the descendants of aristocratic families have all kinds of people. In the current imperial court, many officials are from aristocratic families.

It is uncertain whether they have stockpiled food or not, and they want to make a fortune from it.

Li Shimin is also very aware of this truth, and finally couldn't help it, and said angrily: "Hateful!"

"These profiteers!"

"It's fine if you don't want to serve the country and save the people, and take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune."

He slapped the armrest of the dragon chair fiercely, gritted his teeth with great resentment, and his voice was full of hatred for those profiteers.

"Ah~"

"Dear dears, what are some good strategies?"

Li Shimin sighed again after being angry, looking very helpless.

Anger is all about anger, but those grain merchants and aristocratic families are not breaking the law, Li Shimin really dare not let people arrest them and snap them.

After the change of Xuanwumen, he cherished his reputation very much and worked hard to establish the image of a wise king.

Naturally, it is impossible to do such a cruel thing.

Otherwise, those literati in the world should criticize him again.

silence……

There is no good policy.

The solution to the problem is as simple as it is difficult, the only key is food!
Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and other members of the imperial power faction frowned and thought hard, trying hard to come up with a good solution to the problem.

But
During this incident, the Qiwang of five surnames headed by Lu Quan, as well as other officials of the aristocratic family, calmly watched, with a look of complacency.

They are waiting.

Wait for Li Shimin to beg them in person.

In this situation, only the food reserves of the major families can calm the victims of the flood.

"Report to Your Majesty, the heavy rain has lasted for nearly three days now, and it's getting worse."

"As the saying goes, be prepared for danger in times of peace, we can assert that this is obviously not an ordinary heavy rain."

"Additionally, seven days ago, there were folk rumors that underground ghosts and gods were born and robbed me of Datang's million-dollar salary."

"Isn't this... a punishment from the heavens!!"

Lu Quan came out and spoke to Li Erjin.

As soon as Lu Quan's words came out, all the ministers were shocked, and then they showed a look of contemplation, and many ministers nodded slightly in agreement.

The ancient times didn't want the modern society to be a scientific society.

In this era, the theory of ghosts and gods is very revered, and even the royal family has Qin Tianjian for divination of astrology and deduction of good and bad luck.

As Lu Quan said, this torrential rain that lasted for almost a month was indeed unusual, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is rare in a century.

Coupled with the incident of ghosts and gods seven days ago, the vacillating officials were wondering whether Li Shimin had really done something wrong.

Li Shimin's expression darkened upon hearing this.

"What does Lu Aiqing mean by this?"

"Do you mean that I did something outrageous and was punished by the heavens!?"

Li Er stared at Lu Quan coldly, and grabbed the armrest of the dragon chair with his palms. Because of too much force, his knuckles turned white and made a clicking sound.

He immediately thought of the matter of Xuanwumen.

Li Er thinks that Lu Quan is alluding to him.

The Xuanwu Gate incident has always been a taboo in his heart, a scar that no one is allowed to uncover!
"No no no!"

"Your Majesty misunderstood, I have no such intention."

Seeing Li Shimin furious, Lu Quan knew that Li Shimin might have misunderstood him, so he quickly denied it.

"Then... Lu Aiqing, what do you mean?" Li Shimin's expression softened a little, and he continued to ask Lu Quan, squinting his eyes slightly, thinking about what kind of medicine Lu Quan was selling in the gourd.

"Your Majesty is not at fault, but it does not mean that he is not at fault."

"I think it's Qin Wenyuan, the demon doctor, and Chang'an with cholera!"

As soon as the words came out, all the officials were shocked.

None of them expected that Lu Quan would point the finger at Qin Wenyuan, who is in the limelight today.

One must know that Qin Wenyuan is the No. [-] scholar this year, and he was awarded the title of Li Shimin a week ago.

Isn't Lu Quan attacking Qin Wenyuan now, is he attacking Li Shimin?
At this moment, Li Shimin's complexion became more and more ugly.

Lu Quan didn't take it seriously, and continued: "Since the demon doctor Qin Wenyuan used magic to solve smallpox, the gods in the sky were furious, and this is the result of today's hunger and poverty in the Tang Dynasty!"

"Your Majesty, your eyes were blinded, which made it rise to the top and skyrocket. Therefore, the heavens sent down punishment to show punishment!"

"I hope that His Majesty will behead the demon doctor Qin Wenyuan for public display, so as to appease the wrath of God."

"We will fully cooperate with His Majesty in rescuing the victims and quelling the flood!"

Lu Quan directly stated his purpose, and looked at Li Shimin with piercing eyes, with a hint of coercion and coercion.

The meaning is obvious.

It is to tell Li Shimin, if you kill or arrest Qin Wenyuan first, I will wait for the aristocratic family to offer food with both hands to help the court rescue the victims and quell the flood.

If not.

Well then, good luck to you! !
