Chapter 85 The real thing
Beilin is a person who knows how to repay kindness. Sichen, who was abandoned by the Qin Tianjian, turned into an imperial envoy. In his heart, the emperor's kindness is more important than anything else. Therefore, no matter what happens, the first rule is to put Do what the emperor ordered!

After he finished reading the imperial decree expressionlessly, Li Yan and the others immediately looked at each other in blank dismay.

Will there be an earthquake in Mizhi?
Isn't that right, here is the Loess Plateau, the terrain is stable, since ancient times, there have been very few earthquakes in northern Shaanxi.

Moreover, natural disasters such as earthquakes are punishments from the heavens. Unless the current emperor is immoral, who would dare to predict it easily?
Of course, this is an imperial decree, so everyone laughed along, and Li Yan even said with emotion: "Your Majesty is truly a sage. He is far away thousands of miles away, and he still misses the soldiers and civilians in our border town. I really admire him." This kind of love for the people is not comparable to that of Yao and Shun!"

Behind him, the county magistrate Ren Dewu also stepped forward, and said with a stiff smile: "It is really a blessing for us to be able to serve the emperor. Our ancestors have accumulated virtue in eight lifetimes."

Beilen's face was full of solemnity, and she said in a deep voice: "The emperor's meaning is very clear. Since an earthquake is about to occur here, in order to protect the local people, it is necessary to warn in advance and evacuate the crowd. We must not relax."

"Okay, okay, I don't dare to be negligent and negligent, please rest assured the imperial envoy."

Speaking of which, Li Yan was born as a top-ranked Jinshi, but in front of Belin, he still had to smile. He had no choice but to be an imperial envoy, and every word and deed represented the emperor.

Beilin continued: "Also, the emperor personally explained that within three days, the people must be relocated out of the city, and with Mizhi County as the center, all towns within a hundred miles will also be relocated, and temporary buildings will be built in the wilderness. During this period, the county government will also open warehouses and set up porridge sheds to ensure the basic needs of the people.”

Li Yan: ...

Not only him, but everyone present was stunned.

Isn't this a joke?
Just for a non-existent warning, it is necessary to relocate the people of the whole county?

Such a large-scale migration and resettlement, what a loss it will bring!
The county magistrate Ren Dewu said with a smile: "Okay, okay, since it is the emperor's order, no problem, no problem."

Li Yan gave him a puzzled look, but saw Ren Dewu secretly winking at him, and immediately reacted.

"That's right, the emperor's orders must be followed by the lower officials. It's snowing outside, please enter the city. Let's drink some water and wine first to warm up."

The behavior of the two made Belin feel a little surprised. He thought that there would be resistance, but he never expected that they would agree so happily.

He just wanted to evacuate the people as soon as possible, so he waved his hand and said, "The business is important, so the water and wine are free. Let's get down to business first."

Li Yan thought to himself, this imperial envoy seems a little unreasonable.

"Master Imperial Envoy has come so far, I'll take it easy..."

"No need!"

Belin waved her hand again and said, "There are three thousand battalion soldiers behind me. It's inconvenient to enter the city. Why don't you set up camp and rest on the spot? Lizhi County, let's go to business first!"

Speaking of this, Li Yan had no choice but to lead a group of officials back to the county government.

"What did you mean by winking at me just now?"

Ren Dewu said with a smile: "Isn't Master Li very clear in his heart that this imperial envoy came all the way to pass the decree, as for the evacuation of the crowd, he returned to Beijing after reading the imperial decree and returned to his command. Master Li only needs to deliver a memorial. It is said that the people have been evacuated according to the will, and who knows?"

"Having said that, however, I don't think this person is easy to talk to."

"Why don't we go and prepare some silver taels and presents in this humble position. Master Li will come forward tomorrow to see the imperial envoy off. After taking our silver, we won't be able to speak ill of us in front of the emperor, right?"

"That's good!" Li Yan nodded and said, "I'll leave this matter to you, go down and prepare!"

At this time, a civil official came forward and said: "My lord, the banquet is ready, look at this..."

Li Yan thought for a while, and said: "People don't reward face, let's eat by ourselves, let's go!"

After drinking for three rounds, everyone was full and went back to their homes.

Li Yan was drunk, and as soon as he lay down, he heard a commotion outside.

"Do you know that this is the magistrate's back house? Who are you, how dare you..."

boom!
All I could hear was the door being roughly kicked open, followed by the butler's groans.

Li Yan frowned, thinking what kind of person is so bold, dare to break into my backyard, don't want to live anymore?
Immediately afterwards, the outside curtain was lifted, and a gust of cold wind blew into the room, followed by several figures, all dimly lit and unclear.

"Bold!" Li Yan shouted drunkenly, "Do you know where this is?"

"Lizhi County, I would like to ask, how is the errand ordered by the emperor going?"

When Li Yan heard it, wasn't this the imperial envoy during the day!

"It turned out to be the imperial envoy, I'm an official, I'm an official..."

Li Yan struggled to get out of the bed, bowed his hands and saluted, "I don't know if the imperial envoy is here, so I'm not far away to welcome you, I'm not far away to welcome you!"

"Li Yan!"

Bellin suddenly yelled, and continued: "This envoy will ask you again, how is the errand assigned by the emperor going?"

"This, this..."

Li Yan said creakingly: "The imperial envoy doesn't know something, the officials have prepared some gifts for tomorrow..."

Snapped!
Beilen was impatient, seeing the opponent so unbelievable, she slapped her directly.

"Take this person to the lobby!"

"Yes!"

Li Yan was slapped for no reason, and immediately became angry, and shouted with the strength of alcohol: "This old man is a dignified county magistrate, who dares?"

Maybe...he didn't know who he was facing.

The soldiers of the [-] Battalion were masters of murder without batting an eyelid on the battlefield. A small county magistrate was really nothing in their eyes, so they dragged Li Yan to the lobby of the county government.

Li Zhen and Ha Ming also brought a few people over, and they all grabbed their hair and threw them on the ground like dragging a dead dog.

Looking at these people, Li Yan suddenly sobered up. It turned out that it was Ren Dewu, the county magistrate, and then the chief secretary, Dian Shi, etc. The entire team of the county government had arrived. Is this really serious?

Bei Lin sat down on the head with a sullen face, slapped the gavel, and shouted: "Li Yan, the magistrate of Mizhi County, I ask you, have you received an imperial edict today?"

"Accept...received?"

"The imperial decree clearly stated that you were ordered to evacuate the entire county within three days. Why did you ignore it?"

"This... this..."

"It's disrespectful to look down on the Holy One, it's disrespectful to look down on the people, it's dereliction of duty, come here, drag it down, and rectify the law on the spot!"

Li Yan only felt a humming sound in his head, what is he beheading?
The people standing on both sides of the hall were not the county yamen servants, but the soldiers of the [-] Battalion. They only obeyed Beilin's orders. When they heard the order, they couldn't help but dragged them out.

Li Yan hurriedly shouted: "I am wronged, I am wronged by the officials!"

"Wait!"

Bellin waved her hand to stop, and asked, "Is it wrong to blame you?"

"Emissary, please forgive me!"

"This emissary spared you, but when the earthquake happens, who will spare these tens of thousands of people?"

"Three days, the agreed three days!"

Li Yan seemed to have grasped at straws, and hurriedly said, "It's only been half a day, and there are still two and a half days left. I promise to complete the task!"

Belin squinted her eyes and thought for a moment, then said: "Well, if it can't be completed, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Li Yan nodded desperately, and said: "Your official, go and order people to wait to move the people overnight!"

"It's almost there!"

Belin nodded and said: "The Three Thousand Battalion has settled outside the city. Your task is to order the people in the city to move here. If you encounter any problems in the past few days, you can ask the Three Thousand Battalion for assistance. This envoy As long as the result, understand?"

"Subordinate to obey!"
