Chapter 118 Disaster Relief Brings Out Corrupt Officials

Requisition order?
Master Zhou said after pondering for a while: "The old minister thought that as long as the imperial court's list of medical candidates is announced, the four of them will definitely come here."

Generals go to the frontier after hearing about the war, doctors will come when there is an epidemic, and literati will go to the border when they are tested. This is the normal state of human beings.

And the doctors who come here voluntarily will not be afraid of hardships and hardships.

"En." The emperor approved of the old emperor Zhou's opinion, and said again: "Teacher, my father..."

Old Master Zhou sighed, shook his head and said nothing.

What can he say?Said that the first emperor did the right thing, should he give up one corner and protect the overall situation?

But that is tens of thousands of lives, how heavy is this decision!

There are three fundamental reasons for the early death of the first emperor.One was that his body was hollowed out by beauty, the other was that his foundation was damaged by erysipelas, and in the end, the tens of thousands of lives lost in the sea of ​​fire in Nancheng swallowed his last life heavily.

"Your Majesty, although the merits and demerits of the predecessors are written by the descendants, they can change from time to time, and from one time to another, they can only be used for reference and cannot be compared.

Just like the fire in Nancheng more than 30 years ago, the people trapped in Nancheng cursed and complained endlessly, but tens of millions of other people were able to avoid the disaster.

It is difficult to define right and wrong for what the late emperor did back then.After all, there was no good medicine against the epidemic at that time, and burning the city was just a last resort. "

Protecting tens of thousands of people despite the tragedy in Nancheng, it is difficult for the superiors to judge whether it is right or wrong.

"I understand. Don't worry, teacher, until the last moment, I will never give up on anyone." The emperor said with bright eyes.

The old emperor Zhou bowed and saluted, thanking the people of Yicheng, and also thanking Xuan Guo for having this king.

A few days later, Zhou Changbai and his party arrived in Yicheng smoothly and donated food and porridge to the victims.

In addition to disaster relief, he took a look at the Yihe embankment, and when he came back, he angrily reprimanded the prefect of Yicheng.

"Why didn't you strengthen the embankment with so much money allocated by the imperial court? Can't you see the dilapidated embankment? Or did you use the money elsewhere?"

Zhou Changbai's words were still reserved, and he didn't directly scold the prefect of Yicheng for stealing money into his pocket.

The magistrate of Yicheng was very confused, did the imperial court allocate money to repair the embankment?Why doesn't he know?He originally thought about taking some time to take the imperial envoy to have a look at the embankment, and ask him to return to Beijing to make a statement on behalf of his descendants, and allocate some money to strengthen the embankment...

"Why did your lord say that? In the past two years, the subordinate officials have reported to the court several times that the Yi River embankment is rotten. If the embankment is not repaired, it may be flooded. But every time the subordinate official's report is gone, there is no news.

Not to mention that it was the money allocated to repair the embankment, but the officials did not even wait for a reply.

The embankment that the adults saw was only the officials raising funds from the villagers to block the leaky embankment.Otherwise, instead of flooding dozens of villages and towns, I am afraid that the entire Yicheng will be deeply flooded. "

What?Zhou Changbai was startled.

The imperial court clearly allocated a huge amount of embankment repair money, but Yicheng didn't see any money?
He knew that some people in the imperial court ate local money and food every year, but he thought that after the food was taken, the big head would still allocate it for local use.It never occurred to me that they swallowed them all.

No wonder, the Xianghe River broke its embankment last year, the Haihe River flooded last year, and the Yihe River was flooded this year...

It turned out that the flood was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster caused by corrupt officials.

hateful!Can kill!

But who should he kill?Who can kill?
Although the emperor gave him a clear decree, he can cut it first and play it later.

But the person who has been greedy for money is in the capital, I am afraid that it has entered someone's pocket, after all, there is no money left for so much money.

Relief for a disaster, rescued a bunch of corrupt officials?It's no wonder that at that time, no one in civil and military affairs in the Manchu Dynasty was willing to accept this job, so it was so, so it was.

The people affected by the disaster need to be resettled, the collapsed houses need to be rebuilt, the submerged fertile fields need to be cleaned up, and post-disaster epidemics must be prevented.Well, he has too many things to do and can't care about anything else.

Zhou Changbai intends to give a memorial, and leave the matter of Tiyin's corruption to the emperor to decide.

He said: "This matter will be reported by the official. In addition to distributing porridge and food to relieve the victims, we also need to prevent post-disaster epidemics, and also..."

"My lord." The magistrate of Yicheng interrupted Zhou Changbai, and said: "Yicheng's epidemic has begun, and hundreds of people who are sick have been isolated and treated in isolation. It's just that Yicheng lacks medical care and medicine, and the sick people return home every day. It's increasing, if the medicine doesn't help, I'm afraid..."

It is likely to spread throughout the city.

Zhou Changbai was shocked again, Yicheng actually had an epidemic before he arrived, if the Yicheng government hadn't dealt with it properly and isolated the sick people in time for centralized treatment, these people might not be the only ones.

"I'm going to make a discount now, and ask the imperial court for medicine..."

Zhezi, who Zhou Changbai asked for help, rushed into the capital thousands of miles away, and the emperor immediately summoned all the officials for an emergency court meeting.

Before the court meeting was over, the Zhou family got the news.

Zhou family, Chunwu Courtyard.

There was an oppressive dullness in the room, and the servants inside held their breaths and stepped lightly, no one dared to make any noise.

Even Lian Dong, who came back after hearing the news, was a little afraid to speak.

The flood in Yicheng is not clean, and the epidemic has started.The emperor issued a list to recruit good doctors from all over the world to go to Yicheng to fight the epidemic, but in the past few days, there were only a few people on the list.

The situation was already very critical, but the courtiers of the Second Prince's faction didn't think about how to solve the situation, but they still took the opportunity to stir up trouble.He kept saying that nothing would bother the two masters. Since Zhou Changbai had the full power of disaster relief, he should seek the nearest doctor and gather medicine to relieve the crisis in Yicheng, instead of asking for help from thousands of miles away.

Even if there are many doctors and medicines in the capital, they can't quench their thirst far away.

Can this be said in human terms?All the people who said that should be thrown into the water of Yihe to soak in the water to see if they can still say that.

Relocating the people affected by the disaster, preventing the spread of the epidemic, rebuilding houses and grain fields, all these things are so busy, but still let him try to find a doctor to buy medicine?

Whoever said that was damned!
But the emperor just slapped the table and stared...

If such a sycophant and thief are not dragged out and hacked, are they still kept to make up for it?
Zhou Xining's face was a little ugly, and he sighed.

"Disasters are often accompanied by epidemics. As long as they are handled properly, they will not be uncontrollable. My father has made preparations for this aspect of prevention before leaving. Unfortunately, the epidemic started before he arrived in Yicheng."

Now she finally understood why her father's errand came so smoothly, and finally understood why Huang Houde asked him to accompany him.

"Father's errand is difficult. We need to provide disaster relief, fight the epidemic, and guard against villains."

Liandong nodded and said, "Yes, it's difficult."

Then he said: "However, fortunately, the government of Yicheng handled it properly, and the sick people were separated and concentrated for treatment at the first time. The master sent the urgent delivery for thousands of miles, not because the epidemic was uncontrollable, but to seek medical treatment. If The court sent doctors in time to bring good medicine, but there were only a few hundred people, and they were separated for treatment, so nothing will happen."

Suddenly, Zhou Xining realized.

It's not that the emperor is not angry, but he doesn't take it to heart.

Maybe when I first received the report on the epidemic from the prefect of Yicheng, I was also worried, but I found that after a few days, only a few hundred people were sick, and they were treated separately, so I didn't care.

Therefore, in the past few days, no one has answered the list, and I am afraid that it will not be accurate.

Zhou Xining's face became more and more ugly, his eyes were icy cold, and his whole body exuded a biting coldness.
