Chapter 906 It’s not a joke
From last night to dawn, there were constant aftershocks in Kyoto. Fortunately, they were very small. Houses did not collapse again. Only dozens of people were slightly injured and no one was buried.

The next day, the DPRK received an urgent memorial from the Zhangquan prefectures.

It turned out that just the day before, earthquakes of varying degrees occurred in these state capitals, killing dozens of people and destroying hundreds of houses.

An earthquake is a big deal.

Zhao Rui immediately summoned ministers to discuss disaster relief matters.

However, before the disaster relief matters have come up with a charter, rumors are already spreading in Kyoto, saying that someone is doing something that offends God, and this is a warning from God.

Who has such great ability to let God give a warning.

He just didn't mention his name, saying that the current Holy One was acting inappropriately.

Zhao Rui sneered when he heard this rumor.

Fang Mengfu knelt down on one knee: "Your Majesty, I will definitely investigate and punish those who spread rumors as soon as possible."

"Ah."

He wanted to see who had the guts to take the blame for the earthquake on him, the emperor.

However, Fang Mengfu, who searched for three days, found no clues at all.

"I am incompetent."

This was the first time that Fang Mengfu found no clues.

The other party wiped their butts very clean, and all possible flaws were eliminated in advance.

The person who spread the rumors has not been found, but the relief work cannot be delayed.

Finally, Han Qi and Wu Kui went to the severely affected places in Zhang and Quan to preside over disaster relief matters.

After more than ten days of hard work, the two men temporarily appeased the residents, and the construction of private houses was carried out in an orderly manner.

But just after the houses were built, another earthquake occurred in these states. Not only did the houses that had just been built collapse, but many of the previous houses were destroyed, killing and injuring hundreds of people.

Therefore, the rumors in Kyoto became even more popular.

Some people even gathered in Xuande Tower and wanted to give an explanation to the people of the world today as to why there were so many deaths and injuries in various places from time to time.

"Edict of sin..."

Zhao Rui sneered, went to Xuande Tower in person, and said to the clamoring people: "In the past six years since I took the throne, I have been worthy of the country and the country, and I have been worthy of the people. I have no shame in my heart, why do I write such ridiculous things."

"But there are always people turning around in various places. Someone must have done something and provoked the wrath of God."

We can't blame the people for being so excited.

In that era, they were in awe of ghosts and gods, and no matter how thoughtful someone provoked them, most people would really believe it.

"Okay, if it is true as you said, then I am standing here now. If there is something wrong with my actions, please ask God to punish me face to face."

"This……"

"Didn't I say that God is angry? Now if you punish me in front of the people of the world, then you are really punishing me, rather than condemning my people."

The people were originally very excited, but were shocked by what the young emperor Zhao Rui said.

It sounds like today is not an emperor who doesn't care about the life and death of the people.

At this time, a person in the crowd said: "Let's think about it carefully. If we don't care whether we live or die, how can we live in peace now?"

Another continued: "Yes, when we conquered Xixia and Dali, we said that we would have to fight for years and the life would be hard. The Holy Spirit really stopped fighting and even made peace with Daliao. Didn't he just want us to be safe and sound?" Let’s live a good life.”

After hearing this, the man in his early twenties rubbed his head in embarrassment: "It's really true. If you didn't tell me, I almost forgot about it!"

Another old man in his sixties said: "But the cows turn over so frequently here, what's the explanation?"

The man who spoke first replied: "I have read this in a book. It said that the land in our countries is like a large piece of cloth stitched together. In some places, just in the stitching area, it is easy to happen. This earthquake."

Old man: "Earthquake?" "Yes, that book said that when a ground cow turns over, it is an earthquake."

Another young man came over and said, "So our Kyoto is also on the stitches of that piece of cloth?"

"It should be. In short, it has nothing to do with the wrath of heaven. And don't you think someone is deliberately leading us in this matter? We are looking forward to chaos in our Song Dynasty!"

The young man finally came to his senses and said, "Okay, it must be those bastards from Daliao. They asked the married princess to kill our ministers before, and now they are spreading alarmism and want to harm our Majesty."

Two people believe it, and three people believe it.

One by one, the people's voices became quieter.

Finally, they all knelt down in front of Xuande Tower and apologized to His Majesty.

How could Zhao Rui really punish them?

Some people are trying to make excuses and take advantage of people's hearts, but they can do it too. Compared with what the Liao Dynasty did in the Song Dynasty during this period, the people are still willing to believe that their emperor is good for them.

Strange to say.

After Zhao Rui spoke in Xuande Tower this time, the aftershocks that lasted for several days stopped.

This made the people even more convinced that someone wanted to disrupt the Song Dynasty.

Who is this person referring to.

The people thought that the princess of Daliao must be dead, so they were unwilling to give up and wanted to cause trouble.

So they spontaneously organized a traitor catching team in Kyoto to search for hidden secrets in Kyoto.

The whole nation is hoeing off rape, this is really no joke.

In just five days, two well-hidden hidden stakes of Daliao in Kyoto were pulled out, and more than ten spies were arrested.

Zhao Rui couldn't believe it.

Looking at the folded book presented to him, he sighed: "It can still be like this!"

Gu Qingjue said: "The great hermitage is hidden in the city, and those hidden piles have turned into ordinary people. The government has dedicated people to investigate, but it is not easy to detect. The common people are different. They have been rooted here for generations and are particularly aware of the movements of their neighbors. As long as there is this Even the slightest clue can't escape their eyes. "

The eyes of the masses are sharp. This sentence is not false at all.

"It really is."

The post-disaster reconstruction lasted until the end of the year.

Even so, the ministers who participated in the disaster relief were impeached by the admonishers, which was really unjust.

And in the list of impeached officials, Gu Qingjue's name was prominently listed.

After the two brothers Gu Yanxiao and Gu Yanheng heard the news, they were so angry that they put their hands on their hips: "Mom, are those people's brains blocked? They said that daddy was not able to provide disaster relief, why didn't they say that the emperor..."

"Smile."

Su Yixin intercepted Gu Yanxiao's words with a slightly serious tone.

It's not like their Gu family didn't work carefully, some of them were let in on purpose, and some of them were loyal at the beginning but turned traitor later.

These are difficult to predict.

She was talking about His Majesty in the palace. If someone with a heart heard this, it would make a big fuss.

"Mother, are we just going to endure this?"

Tolerate?
nonexistent.

"What is the name of the impeaching official?"

"Mom, my name is Lu Jifu."

Su Yixin said she had never heard of this person.
