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

Having said this, Hu Guang paused to allow the courtiers below to have time to think and digest the news, and then continued: "Today, there are about a million old and weak people surrounded by the cold wind and attacked by hunger. They are in urgent need Rescue, every time it takes a while, someone will die. Do you have any good ideas to save these millions of old and weak people?"

This news was really beyond the expectations of the civil and military officials. The Jianlu just left and it was expected that they would take away the property. Even if they massacred the city, it was not a rare thing. But you can't do anything good, so why do you leave this burden behind? Isn't this causing trouble for the imperial court? The imperial court is already so poor that it is starving to death, and this is simply adding insult to injury!

However, I want to go back and think so, but I can't say it out loud. All of a sudden, all the civil and military officials were filled with indignation and cursed the prisoners for being inhumane and doing such inhumane things. Or shout out that human life is at stake, but there are still so many people, and the court must not just sit back and ignore them, but must save them.

Hu Guang listened for a long time, but damn, no one had any effective ideas. They all talked in general terms, or shouted to save people, or scolded Jianlu, and then nothing happened!

Hu Guang was so angry that his liver hurt and he frowned. It seemed that he had overestimated the integrity of these people. He just signaled, and the quiet whip sounded, making the scene quiet.

It was only then that Wen Tiren opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty is very concerned. The most urgent plan now is food, and the second is food to keep out the cold. I believe that the food in the capital should be controlled, and the food in the surrounding provinces should be quickly transferred to supply. , and the grain allocated by the surrounding provinces should be supplemented by the border provinces. This matter is of great importance, but it will be assessed based on the merits of the governors of each province."

"Good!" Hu Guang immediately nodded in agreement, "The cabinet drafted the edict as quickly as possible, the Supervisor of Ceremonies used the seal, and it was rushed to various places for 800 miles."

A formal imperial edict requires the cabinet to draw up the edict, the ceremonial supervisor to use the seal, and the six subjects to not reject it during the matter. That is the most formal thing. At this moment, needless to say, the cabinet and the Supervisor of Ceremonies, under the current background, how dare they dare to refute the matter of Liu Ke Zhong, which is such a just move. Therefore, this imperial edict was quickly issued, and it cost eight hundred li plus. Send him out of the capital in a hurry.

However, Hu Guang was not relaxed at all, and said with a stern face: "Allocating food from other provinces, water from far away cannot quench the thirst of nearby people. Sirs, is there any way to save this!"

"Your Majesty, I would like to donate this monthly salary and let the house take out the extra clothes." Wen Tiren bowed again and said.

When he started, Zhang Zhifa, who had just been promoted to the position of assistant minister of the cabinet, naturally followed the lead of the chief minister and immediately followed suit and expressed his intention to donate money and materials.

"Your Majesty, I have some miscellaneous food in the Tianjin Wei Manor. It is slightly toxic and should not be eaten in large quantities. However, it can temporarily relieve hunger. It may be used for disaster relief. In addition, I can also donate excess clothes to keep out the cold." Xu Guangqi, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, followed.

Hu Guang was a little curious about what Xu Guangqi said was the poisonous omnivore, but it was difficult to ask at this time, lest it would change the subject. Therefore, he just nodded in approval, and then glanced at the other ministers.

Chief Assistant and others are taking the lead, why don't you show your kindness? Are you still worthy of being a role model for educating the common people and a role model for officials? Under this background, even if some people are dissatisfied, they have no choice but to express it. Even if they are trying to make a fool of themselves, they must at least donate something.

Hu Guang immediately asked the eunuch on duty to send a servant to record on the spot, such and such official, how much money, how much clothing, etc. were donated.

After such a busy time, it was considered to have scratched the surface of the civil and military officials. However, Hu Guang still said with a stern face: "This alone, regardless of the amount of food or clothing, is far from enough. There must be a stronger force." Measures to deal with the aftermath, what else can you do?"

You have donated money and clothes, what more do you want? The ministers were thinking in their hearts, silently. There was no other way, but Wen Tiren, the first assistant, came out and said: "With more people, there is greater strength. I suggest that the capital, or all the capital areas, participate in the disaster relief, maybe more people can be saved!"

"Good, just follow what the chief assistant said." After Hu Guang praised him, he asked again, "What else can you do? Not to mention that this little thing can save millions of victims?"

Well, everything that can be thought of and said has been said by Wen Tiren. It is estimated that the people who were rescued will be grateful to him. Some people are thinking that they must take this opportunity to build up their reputation.

Therefore, Cheng Jiming, one of the civil servants, came out and said: "Your Majesty, I am so stupid that I can't think of any other strategy except what I just did. But if there is a strategy to save the people, and it can save one more people, I will support it." , absolutely nothing!"

After saying these words, this attitude became clear. Not only can I win the favor of the emperor, but when word spreads, others will also know that I, Cheng Ji Ming, am dedicated to the people!

As soon as he opened his mouth, no one could understand his wishful thinking. Who wouldn’t use empty words to gain reputation?

As a result, other ministers also stood up one by one with great righteousness and expressed their opinions passionately and generously. If people who don’t know see it, they will really like them. Not only do they donate money and materials (how much is not important), but they also serve the people wholeheartedly. They are really good officials who serve the country and the people!

Hu Guang naturally knows what they want and is willing to satisfy them. When someone expresses their opinions, he will praise them, or smile and encourage them, etc.

When all the civil and military officials had finished talking, Hu Guang smiled and concluded: "It seems that I, the officials of the Ming Dynasty, mostly care about the people. I am very relieved!"

Look, how nice the atmosphere is! Hearing the emperor's praise, contrary to the previous banishment and punishment, I suddenly felt that you are good, I am good, everyone is good!

But Hu Guang immediately stopped smiling and immediately issued an order: "Since we, the monarchs and ministers, have reached an agreement, we must put saving the people first. I have decided! Come, Chuan Mangui, Li Fengxiang, Gao Shiyue, Cao Huachun, Liu Xingzuo!" "

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

After a while, under the attention of all the ministers, Man Gui, the governor of the city defense of the capital and the general of the Datong army, Li Fengxiang, the admiral of the capital camp, Gao Shiyue, the eunuch in charge of the Royal Horse Supervisor, Cao Huachun, the eunuch Bingbi, the eunuch of the ceremonial department and the governor of the East Factory, and Cao Huachun, the Jinyiwei The commander sent Liu Xingzuo to attend the meeting together.

Hu Guang looked at the five people below and immediately issued an order: "From now on, the whole city of the capital will implement food control. Everyone, etc., are not allowed to gather in groups for drinking, extravagance and waste. If anyone is caught, no matter who they are, their family property will be confiscated! Mangui, Li Fengxiang, Gao Shiyue sent troops to inspect the whole city, don’t neglect it!”

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

"All grain stores must be sealed, and all grains must be given receipts and returned on the next day. The seized grains will be supervised by people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs will be registered. The people in the capital will be rationed with grains per capita every day. The balance will be Food, help the victims as soon as possible! Wen Tiren, Bi Ziyan, Cao Huachun, and Liu Xingzuo are responsible for this matter and must not be neglected!"

Thanks to Heying, Party, and Iron Blood for the rewards!

I didn’t expect the 50 monthly tickets to be collected by Bai D Zhengyi in the form of monthly ticket red envelopes, thank you!

As far as my original intention is concerned, I don’t want people to waste money on giving out red envelopes. Those are all sent by robots. If you have a monthly ticket after reading the book, I hope you can vote for it.

There are five updates today, the third update should be updated around 12 noon, and the third update will be updated after get off work.

The recommended votes probably don’t reach 2,000 per week, but the monthly votes do, so I owe another chapter.
