Royal Palace, Hall of Manna.
Li Er and Minister Wen Wu were discussing the management of the flood and the victims at the court.
“Your Majesty, the granary of the imperial court has bottomed out.”
“There are too many victims in Chang’an City, and the daily consumption is a huge astronomical amount, which can support a complete food run out in three days at most.”
Hube Shangshu Chen Shuda came out and reported to Li Er.
“So soon?”
“In that case, buy grain from the market in the name of the imperial court for relief of the victims.”
Li Er ordered Hube Shangshu.
“Your Majesty, there is not much grain left on the market, and the flood is rampant, and the price of food has skyrocketed tenfold!”
“Many grain merchants are buying grain at a premium, and they are ready to take this opportunity to make a big profit.”
Hube Shangshu said with some pain.
He is one of the few disciples of this court, and he can achieve the position of Hube Shangshu today all thanks to his own efforts and Li Er’s appreciation.
Born into poverty, he can very well understand the feelings of these people at the bottom.
So I am very disgusted and angry about this method.
“Hateful!”
“These profiteers!”
“It’s just a matter of not thinking about serving the country and saving the people, and taking this opportunity to make a fortune in disaster.”
Li Er slammed the armrest of the dragon chair, gritting his teeth and resentful, and his voice was full of hatred for those profiteers.
“Alas~”
“What is your good plan?”
Li Er sighed again after being angry, looking very helpless.
Anger is anger, but those grain merchants are not illegal, Li Er can’t directly let people directly arrest them and click.
After the change of Xuanwu Gate, he especially cherished his reputation and worked hard to establish the image of a Ming Jun.
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 idea.
The solution to the problem is simple and difficult, the only key is food!
Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruxian and other people of the imperial power faction frowned and pondered, pondering hard, and trying to come up with a good solution to the problem.
But….
Those officials of the great clan headed by Pei Yu were calm and relaxed, watching coldly, and looking proud.
They are waiting.
Wait for Li Er to beg them.
Today, only the food reserves of the major families can calm the victims of this flood.
“Your Majesty, this heavy rain has been going on for nearly a month now.”
“Obviously, it wasn’t an ordinary heavy rain.”
“This is a punishment from heaven!”
Pei Yu said to Li Erjin.
As soon as Pei Ying’s words came out, the ministers were immediately stunned, and then showed a contemplative look, and many ministers slightly bowed their heads in agreement.
Ancient times do not want modern times to be a scientific society.
In this era, the ghosts and gods were very reverent, and even the royal family had a Qin Tianjian to divinate the stars and deduce the auspicious murderer.
As Pei Yu said, this heavy rainstorm that lasted almost a month is indeed unusual, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is rare to see it in a hundred years.
When Li Er heard this, his face sank.
“Pei Aiqing, what does this mean?”
“Do you mean that Xu did something angry and resentful and suffered punishment from heaven!?”
Li Er stared at Pei Yu coldly, his palm grasping the armrest of the dragon chair, because he was too hard, his knuckles appeared white, making a clicking sound.
He thought of the Xuanwu Gate in an instant.
Li Er thought that Pei Yu was alluding to him.
The change of Xuanwu Gate has always been a taboo in his heart, a scar that no one will be allowed to open!
“No, no, no!”
“Your Majesty misunderstood, Weichen did not mean this.”
Seeing the angry Li Er, Pei Yu knew that Li Er might have misunderstood him, and quickly denied it.
“That… Pei Aiqing, what do you mean? Li Er’s face slowed down when he heard this, and he continued to ask Pei Ying, squinting his eyes slightly, thinking about what medicine Pei Ying was selling in the gourd.
“Just because His Majesty is not at fault does not mean that his people are not at fault.”
“Demon doctor Li Hao, cholera Chang’an, but the saint was blinded and made him walk in the clouds and rise up, so the heavens sent punishment as punishment!”
“I hope His Majesty will behead the demon doctor Li Hao for public display to calm the wrath of the heavens.”
“I will fully cooperate with Your Majesty in rescuing the victims and calming the floods!”
Pei Yu directly stated his purpose, and looked at Li Er with a hint of coercion.
The meaning is obvious.
It is to tell Li Er, if you kill Li Hao, I and other families will offer grain with both hands to help the imperial court rescue the victims and calm the floods.
If not.
Then do it yourself!
“Please Your Majesty behead the demon doctor Li Hao to show the public to calm the wrath of the heavens!!!
Countless officials belonging to the great families echoed Pei Yu’s words to Li Erjin, demanding that Li Hao be beheaded!
This was something they had planned early on.
Seeing this, Li Er was suddenly shocked and angry.
At this time, they still don’t know what ideas these families are fighting!?
Li Hao’s Tianxia Bookstore seriously touched the most fundamental interests of their family.
They took this opportunity to make a challenge to Li Hao!!
What demon doctor!?
What heavenly wrath!?
It’s all their excuses!!
The purpose is to coerce Li Er to behead Li Hao.
I have to say that the family has seized this opportunity is really good, and it simply strangled Li Er’s lifeline.
“Nonsense!”
“Li Shen heals and practices medicine, hangs the pot to help the world, the name of the good man, who does not know the whole Chang’an, who does not know!?”
What’s more, he also invented the Quyuan plough, which benefited the people of the world. Open a bookstore so that all students in the world have books to read! ”
“Such an act is comparable to a saint!”
“How can it attract the wrath of the heavens!?”
As Li Hao’s future husband-in-law, Fang Xuanling immediately refuted and defended Li Hao.
Changsun Wuji, Du Ruxi, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin and others also followed closely behind, arguing for Li Hao.
But no matter what they said, Pei Yu and other family officials were not moved at all, and they insisted that Li Hao was a demon doctor, which attracted the wrath of the heavens.
Just an excuse anyway.
As for what it is, they don’t care at all.
What they wanted was for Li Er to punish Li Hao.
Their purpose was for Li Hao to be given death and erased from the Great Tang!!!
Li Er looked at the quarreling ministers in the hall, he understood that the family was for his general, forcing himself to make a choice.
Family!
Hateful! Hateful! Hateful!
Li Er clenched his fists, and his nails pierced deep into his flesh and blood!!!
What to do!?
Is it really necessary to sacrifice Hao’er!?
