“Your Majesty, I am not sure why this is the case. When I send disaster relief supplies, everything is fine.” After reading the memorial, Lord Zhang knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
His face was full of fear and kept begging the emperor for forgiveness!
“Okay? It’ll turn out like this!” The emperor was so angry that he stepped forward and kicked Lord Zhang hard on the back.
He directly stepped on Lord Zhang on the ground, “Speak! Where are the embezzled disaster relief funds? Tell me, I can spare your life.”
The emperor stared at Lord Zhang who was trampled by him. At the beginning of a severe drought in the northwest, Lord Zhang was responsible for the food and money for disaster relief.
At that time, he allocated a lot of food and money for disaster relief to Lord Zhang.
Lord Zhang also submitted a memorial after returning from disaster relief, saying that the disaster situation there had been resolved. Who would have thought that the disaster situation would be so serious two years later!
It’s really damn!
“Your Majesty, please spare me. Your Majesty, I am innocent.” Even though he was trampled under his feet, Lord Zhang kept begging for mercy.
From time to time, he looked at the prime minister asking for help, and he urgently hoped that the prime minister could save him quickly.
Emperor, Lord Zhang may really not know the truth. It is better to send someone to provide disaster relief first. After the investigation is made, if Lord Zhang is wrong, it will not be too late to ask for the crime again. “
Seeing Lord Zhang gradually falling into a state of collapse, the Prime Minister hurriedly stood up and spoke.
With the Prime Minister taking the lead, some ministers also stood up.
“Yes, Master, if Lord Zhang was just deceived, it would be really unfair. “
“The emperor spared Lord Zhang’s life. Lord Zhang just wanted to embezzle him, but he was afraid he didn’t have the courage to do so. ”
…
As the ministers said and said to each other, the emperor’s expression calmed down for a moment, and he took his feet away from Lord Zhang.
The emperor’s eyes turned to everyone again, “My dear ministers, the northwest urgently needs silver and food for disaster relief now. I wonder which of you is willing to ask for disaster relief? “
As the emperor finished speaking, the surroundings were silent in an instant. Those who were busy arguing for Lord Zhang all shut their mouths.
One or two were afraid that this matter would fall on themselves.
If it were ordinary disaster relief, it would be fine. This was a disaster relief with plague. If you accidentally get infected with the plague during disaster relief, you would die.
All the people who finally climbed to this position and no one was willing to die.
Even if you didn’t die in the plague, if you had an unsuccessful disaster relief, you would suffer twice the anger.
Those who did not have the disaster relief work would definitely stop them. Who would probably die in those peopleIn hand.
I was lucky enough to not die, and I had to complete the purpose of disaster relief and treatment. If I fail to complete it, the emperor will definitely get angry.
Simplified
Simply, it is not good for both sides.
No one will like such a thankless errand.
“Why don’t you talk?” The emperor glanced at everyone with anger in his tone, “A group of timid and afraid people, what’s the use of me raising you!”
The emperor was really angry. He didn’t expect that so many ministers had no one who volunteered to provide disaster relief.
“Father, my son is willing to go to provide disaster relief.” At this time, Mo Yunzhou stood up, looking like a gentleman.
The emperor looked at Mo Yunzhou, was silent for a while, and finally looked at him kneeling again
