Chapter 161

"However, before Jianlu left, he plundered all the belongings and young people in Yongping, Zunhua and other cities, and drove the old and weak into the wild, and set fire to the cities..."

Speaking of this, Hu Guang paused for a moment to allow the officials below to think about and digest the news, and then continued: "Nowadays, there are about one million old and weak people surrounded by cold wind and attacked by hunger. They urgently need Rescue, every time, someone will die. What good strategy do you have to save these millions of old and weak?"

This news was really beyond the expectations of the civil and military officials. It is good for the Jianlu to go away. It is expected that the property is stolen, even if it is a massacre of the city, it is not a rare thing.But what are you doing wrong, why do you leave the burden behind?Isn't this causing trouble for the imperial court! The imperial court was already so poor that the mice were starved to death, this is simply worse!
However, I want to think so, but I can't say it.All of a sudden, civil and military officials were filled with righteous indignation, and they cursed Jianlu for inhumanity and inhumanity.Or shouting that human life is at stake, there are still so many people, the court must not just sit idly by and must save them.

Hu Guang listened for a long time, but no one had any effective ideas, they were all talking in general, or shouting to save people, or scolding Jianlu bitterly, and then, there was no more!
Hu Guang was so angry that his liver hurt a little, and he frowned. It seemed that he still overestimated the integrity of these people.As soon as he signaled, the static whip sounded, making the scene quiet.

Wen Tiren didn't speak until this time: "Your Majesty is very concerned. The most urgent plan now is food, and the second is something to keep out the cold. I think that the capital's food should be controlled, and the food in the surrounding provinces should be quickly adjusted for supply." , and the food allocated by the surrounding provinces should be supplemented by the frontier provinces. This matter is of great importance, but it will be assessed by the merits of the governors of each province."

"Good!" Hu Guang immediately nodded in agreement, "The cabinet drafted the decree quickly, and the ceremonial supervisor used the seal, and sent it to various places in an expedited eight hundred miles."

The official imperial decree is to ask the cabinet to draw up the decree, the supervisor of ceremonies to use the seal, and the six divisions to give the matter without rejecting it, it cannot be more formal.At this moment, needless to say, the cabinet and the director of ceremonies, under the current background, how dare to refute the six divisions' actions, so this imperial decree will be released soon, eight hundred li plus Send out of the capital in a hurry.

However, Hu Guang was not at ease, and said with a stern face: "Allocating food from other provinces will not be able to quench the thirst in the near future. Gentlemen, what else can we do to save it!"

"Your Majesty, I would like to donate this month's salary, and ask the family to provide extra clothes." Wen Tiren bowed again and said.

At the beginning, Zhang Zhifa, who had just been promoted to a cabinet assistant, naturally followed the lead of the first assistant, and immediately followed suit and expressed his willingness to donate money and materials.

"Your Majesty, I have some omnivores in the Tianjin Wei Manor. They are slightly poisonous and should not be eaten too much, but they can temporarily relieve hunger. They may be used for disaster relief. In addition, the minister's mansion can also donate excess clothes to keep out the cold." Xu Guangqi, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, played along.

Hu Guang was a little curious about what Xu Guangqi said about the poisonous omnivorous food, but it was not easy to ask at this time, so as not to change the topic, so he just nodded approvingly, and then glanced at the other courtiers.

Shoufu and the others took the lead, why don't you express your kindness?Is it still worthy of being a model of reading to educate the common people, a model of officials?Under such a background, even if someone is dissatisfied, there is no way not to express it, even if it is a swollen face to pretend to be fat, at least they have to donate.

Hu Guang immediately asked the eunuch on duty to send a servant to record on the spot, how much money and clothes donated by a certain official, etc.

After such a busy journey, it can be regarded as a layer of scratches from the civil and military officials. However, Hu Guang still said with a stern face: "Just like this, no matter whether it is food or clothing, the quantity is far from enough. There must be stronger Measures to deal with the aftermath, what else can you do?"

Money and clothes are donated, what else do you want?The ministers thought in their hearts and remained silent.There is no other way, but the chief assistant, Wen Tiren, came forward and said: "There is strength in numbers. I suggest that the capital, or all the places in the capital, participate in the disaster relief, or they can save more people!"

"Good, just follow what Shoufu said." After Hu Guang praised, he asked again, "What else can you do? Don't say that this little thing can save millions of disaster victims?"

Well, all that can be thought of and said has been finished by Wen Tiren, and it is estimated that the rescued people will be grateful to him.Some people thought in their hearts that at least they had to take this opportunity to improve their reputation.

Therefore, Cheng Ji, one of the civil servants, ordered to go out and play: "Your Majesty, the ministers are so stupid that they can't think of any strategy except just now. But if there is a strategy to save the people, I can save one more people, and the minister will support it." , absolutely nothing!"

When these words are put out, this attitude becomes clear.Not only can I win the favor of the emperor, but after spreading the word, others will know that I, Cheng Jiming, is dedicated to serving the people!
When he opened his mouth, no one could understand his wishful thinking.Who wouldn't use empty words to gain reputation?

As a result, the other courtiers also stood up righteously one by one, expressing their opinions passionately and generously.If people who don't know see it, they really want to give them a thumbs up. Not only donate money and materials (how much is not important), but also serve the people wholeheartedly. They are really good officials for the country and the people!
Hu Guang naturally knows what they want and is willing to satisfy them. When someone expresses his opinion, he will praise it, or encourage it with a smile, etc.

When all the civil and military officials had finished speaking, Hu Guang smiled and concluded: "It seems that I, an official of the Ming Dynasty, still care about the common people. I am so relieved!"

Look, how good the atmosphere is!Hearing the emperor's praise, contrary to the previous exile and punishment, I immediately felt hello, hello, hello, everyone!
But Hu Guang immediately smiled, and immediately issued an order: "Since our monarchs and ministers have reached an agreement, we should put saving the people first. I have decided! Come, pass on Man Gui, Li Fengxiang, Gao Shiyue, Cao Huachun, Liu Xingzuo! "

Hearing this, the civil and military officials faintly felt something was wrong.They keenly felt that the emperor seemed to have set up a trick, and then everyone jumped down happily.

In a short time, under the watchful eyes of the officials, the governor of the capital's city defense and the commander-in-chief of Datong, Li Fengxiang, the admiral of the Beijing camp, Gao Shiyue, the eunuch of the imperial horse supervisor, the eunuch of Bingbi and the admiral of the East Factory, Cao Huachun, the Jinyiwei Commander Liu Xingzuo met with him and waited for the order.

Hu Guang looked at the five people below, and immediately issued a decree: "From now on, the entire city of the capital will implement food control. Everyone, please don't gather for entertainment and extravagance. If anyone is seized, no matter who they are, they will be fined and confiscated! Man Gui, Li Fengxiang, Gao Shiyue sent troops to patrol the whole city, don't neglect!"

"Follow the order!" Man Gui, Gao Shiyue and Li Fengxiang responded loudly at the same time.

"All grain shops are sealed up. All grains are given receipts and will be returned in the future. The seized grains will be supervised by Dongchang and Jinyiwei, officials will be sent by the Ministry of Households to register, and the people in the capital will be rationed by head every day. The balance Food, help the victims as soon as possible! Wen Tiren, Bi Ziyan, Cao Huachun, and Liu Xingzuo are in charge of this matter, so don’t neglect it!”
