Chapter 51 Forced Palace (recommendation ticket requested)
"Return to Your Majesty, because of the heavy snow, it is still impossible to count how many people died." Dai Zhou said bravely.

He already felt that Li Shimin was full of anger, but these matters were within the scope of his authority, and he had to come out.

"How are the victims resettled?" Li Shimin suppressed the anger in his heart and asked calmly.

"Your Majesty, the disaster victims have been resettled, but..."

The calmer Li Shimin became, the more frightened Dai Zhou was. Although it was cold now, his forehead was covered with sweat.

"But what?" Li Shimin asked dissatisfied.

When is this, and he is still timid when he speaks.

"Your Majesty, due to the heavy snow, the wood and charcoal for heating are in short supply. Chang'an will be in a maximum of two days..."

Dai Zhou didn't say it, but Li Shimin already knew what he meant.

Although there are people in Chang'an City who freeze to death now, they are very few.In two days, the heating supplies will run out, and many people will freeze to death.

"Is there anything you can do?" Li Shimin turned his eyes on Baiguan.

Now that it is snowing heavily, the imperial court must come up with a disaster relief plan as soon as possible.

However, no one spoke.

Just kidding, if this kind of thing is done well, it must be a great achievement, but if you don't do it well, you might lose your head, who dares to speak.

boom!
"What use do I need you for? The common people are in dire straits, and none of the civil and military officials can share my worries?" Li Shimin couldn't suppress the anger in his heart any longer, and went up against the case.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

"Calm down, now I don't know how many people have been frozen to death, how can you let me calm down.

"Your Majesty, now that the road is blocked by heavy snow, we should organize personnel to clear the road first, and then send people out of the city to cut wood." At the critical moment, Fang Xuanling stepped forward.

It's just that he has no experience in dealing with snow disasters, so he can't think of a good solution for a while.

"Is there anything else?" Li Shimin's anger receded slightly.

"Your Majesty, the snow disaster is a natural disaster. Your Majesty should hold a sacrifice and issue an edict of guilt." Wang Ze said aloud.

"Guilty Edict" is an oral order or document for ancient emperors to introspect or review their own faults and faults when problems occurred in the court, the country suffered natural disasters, and the political power was in danger.It usually appears in three situations: one is the misplacement of the monarch and his ministers, the other is a disaster caused by natural disasters, and the third is when the political power is in crisis.The intention is self-blame, but the severity of the plot is different.

"You asked me to promulgate an edict of guilt?" Li Shimin looked at Wang Ze with a gloomy expression.

Once he promulgates the Edict of Guilt, it is tantamount to admitting that he, the emperor, is unqualified and caused the disaster from heaven.

For Li Shimin, who aspires to be a generation of Mingjun, it is impossible to accept it.

"Your Majesty, please issue an edict of guilt for the sake of the common people." Wang Ze knelt down and made a big salute.

"Your Majesty, please issue an edict of guilt for the sake of the common people." A group of people followed Wang Ze and knelt down.

The Tang Dynasty couldn't kneel down, even if they met the emperor, they didn't have to kneel down. Wang Ze and the others were forcing the palace.

Li Shimin stared at the kneeling people with an ugly expression. Those people were all people with five surnames and seven wangs.

He knew the intention of these aristocratic families, and wanted him to promulgate an edict of sin against himself to damage his prestige.

Li Shimin's killing intent towards the family reached the limit at this moment.

He can't wait to order now to kill them all.

But he can't do that.

It is impossible for Li Shimin to issue an edict against himself, but if the news of today's incident is spread, and the aristocratic family is behind it, it will definitely arouse complaints from the people.

The people will blame it all on him.

Li Shimin's reputation will plummet, and on the contrary, the reputation of the aristocratic family among the people is getting higher and higher.

"Fart, isn't it just a snowstorm, you actually asked His Majesty to sin against you, what is your intention?"

Besides Cheng Yaojin, who else can yell at the court?

"Su Guogong, the people are suffering, but you say it's just a snow disaster? What's your intention?" Wang Ze accused righteously.

He hasn't settled the matter with Cheng Yaojin last time, how could he let Cheng Yaojin jump out now.

Anyway, now that he is in righteousness, he has nothing to fear.

"Isn't it just a snowstorm? My old Cheng has a way to solve it. You think that they are as useless as you and will only force His Majesty to punish yourself." Cheng Yaojin said disdainfully.

You are a rough old man who knows how to do disaster relief.

Yu Chigong hurriedly winked at Cheng Yaojin, telling him to be cautious.

"Since Mr. Su has a solution, we will listen carefully. I hope the people will not be disappointed." Wang Ze said with a sneer.

He didn't think Cheng Yaojin could solve the snow disaster.

Cheng Yaojin asked Dai Zhou: "I just heard it. Is it enough to solve the problem of heating?"

"Su Guogong, that's true. The most troublesome thing now is the heating problem. Other problems can be solved by the Ministry of Civil Affairs." Dai Zhou said quickly.

"I have a way to keep warm." Cheng Yaojin said confidently.

Cheng Yaojin's words caused an uproar, so many civil servants can't solve the problem, you, a general, can solve it?

"Zhijie, what can you do to hurry up and stop talking so much nonsense." Li Shimin urged.

"Your Majesty, if you don't have wood and charcoal, why not just use coal?" Cheng Yaojin said.

"Haha, I thought Mr. Su could do something about it. Mr. Su doesn't know that coal is poisonous, right?" Wang Ze said with a big laugh.

Li Shimin looked disappointed, he thought Cheng Yaojin could do something, but he didn't expect that he was talking about coal.

Of course she knows about coal, but heating with coal will kill people.

Death by poisoning is also death, death by freezing is also death, it is nothing more than a more comfortable death, which cannot solve the fundamental problem.

Cheng Yaojin pointed at Wang Ze and scolded: "You fart, my old Cheng uses coal at home, how can he live well?"

Ever since Lin Xuan sent someone to deliver the stove and briquettes to his house, he fell in love with the stove, not to mention the fact that there is no dust, and it can also warm wine on it, which has a good heating effect.

"Su Guogong, don't mess around with me. Coal is poisonous, and everyone knows it." Wang Ze said proudly.

"I can testify that what Cheng Yaojin said is true." Yu Chigong said.

"The minister can also testify." Li Jing also stood up.

"This..." Wang Ze was dumbfounded.

"What you said is true?" Li Shimin asked.

If one person says he may not believe it, but if all three say the same, he will not believe it.

"Your Majesty, I guarantee with my life that what I said is true." The three said quickly.

"Impossible, coal is poisonous, how can it be used for heating?" Wang Ze lost his voice.

He asked Li Shimin to issue his own imperial edict in order to attack Li Shimin's prestige.

If the matter can really be resolved, not only will he not be able to damage Li Shimin's prestige, but he will also anger Li Shimin.

Li Shimin also looked at Cheng Yaojin and the others suspiciously.

"Your Majesty, I can't tell. These are all made by Lin Xuan. It is true that I am not poisoned after using them." Cheng Yaojin scratched his head and said.

The stove and the briquette are easy to use, even if you ask him to explain the principle, he will not be able to explain it.
