Previous page Return to Catalog Next page
- From Du He¡¯s point of view, there is indeed nothing wrong with doing this, but he wants no faults but no merit.
Once the order is issued, what if the heavy rain does not arrive as expected?
When the time comes, hundreds of thousands of people in Luoyang will be moved out, and the Luoyang clan will still be in power. When the impeachment comes like snowflakes, who will bear the burden?
His consort couldn¡¯t bear it. In the end, it wasn¡¯t Li Chengqian who bore the anger?
Because this imperial edict was issued by Li Chengqian!
Du He finished all his worries and then said: "Your Highness, even though the Prince Consort is talented, it is enough for him to do such a risky act alone. You must not put yourself in danger, let alone the Prince Consort. I completely underestimated the difficulty. How many people are there in Luoyang? Hundreds of thousands of people. Is it possible to move out within a few days?"
Li Chengqian frowned and was a little unsure. He knew that what Du He said made sense, but the problem was that Mr. Zhao was not an ordinary person and could not be measured by common sense. What he said was basically 100% true.
This is why when Zhao Chen came in and said he wanted to relocate the people, Li Chengqian agreed directly without thinking.
But what Du He said makes sense.
Seeing Li Chengqian's hesitation, Du He struck while the iron was hot: "Your Highness, we must adopt a conservative approach in this matter."
Li Chengqian sighed: "Forget it, that's it, but first send orders to other ministries to prepare for disaster relief. If Luoyang is flooded, we might as well respond directly."
Du He smiled: "Your Highness, don't worry, there is no problem. I will go to Zhongshu Province and call the two adults."
Du He also went, and Li Chengqian was a little upset. What Mr. Zhao and Du He said made sense, and he didn't know whether he should just listen and sleep.
Another one, Du He has been following me for such a long time. He is loyal to him and makes suggestions for him. If he doesn't listen to him, it will hurt his heart.
But not long after, Du He, who had gone out, came back in a hurry. Instead of looking calm just now, he looked panicked.
¡°Your Highness, it¡¯s not good!¡±
Li Chengqian looked at Du He, and Du He said anxiously: "The prince-in-law pretended to pass the imperial edict, and now the order has been passed from Zhongshu Province!"
"What?!"
Li Chengqian stood up in shock and confusion: "How dare he, Mr. Zhao, do this?"
Du He stamped his feet anxiously: "Your Highness, his consort is so bold that if there is anything he dares not do, I suggest that he be put in jail! It's too much, it's too much!"
In the Tang Dynasty's three-province and six-ministry system, the standard process for drafting imperial edicts was that the Zhongshushes in Zhongshu Province would each write an imperial edict on a certain matter. This was the first draft. After writing, they would send it to their leader, Zhongshu Ling or Zhongshu. Minister, Zhongshu Ling selected the one he thought was the best, polished it to form a real imperial edict, and then sent it to the emperor for review and seal, and then to the Menxia Province for review and seal, and finally submitted it to the emperor for review and seal. Give it to Shangshu Province for execution.
In other words, sometimes the imperial decree does not require the emperor to issue an order, but the imperial decree requires the emperor's seal. Now that Li Shimin is out hunting, this seal is naturally with Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian was shocked that Zhao Chen actually carried a counterfeit seal with him?
"Who is on duty in Zhongshu Province?"
"Fang Xuanling."
Li Chengqian did not dare to hesitate any longer and went straight to Zhongshu Province.
When we arrived at the duty room of Zhongshu Province and stepped in, we found that both Fang Xuanling and Ma Zhou were there, still drinking tea, and the teacups were steaming.
"Your Highness."
Fang Xuanling, Ma Zhou and others all stood up.
"Where is Mr. Zhao?"
Fang Xuanling smiled: "I've already gone to the door to save money."
Du He asked in a deep voice: "Uncle, the emperor's imperial edict is a fake one. It does not have a seal or signature! How could such an imperial edict be reviewed by him?"
Fang Xuanling frowned slightly. Ma Zhou on the side noticed something and asked, "Does His Highness think that the imperial edict should not be issued?"
"Uncle! How could this imperial edict be issued? If there was no heavy rain, then all the impeachments would be flying towards His Highness!"
Du He was a little anxious.
Fang Xuanling sighed: "Your Highness, Mr. Zhao has told us, what he said is that human life is at stake."
"So uncle, are you just pretending to preach the imperial edict?!"
Du He raised his voice.
Fang Xuanling frowned and scolded: "Du He, if your father were here, he would do the same thing!"
"Brother Ruhui's decision-making has always been based onWe are about to set off, not to mention that Mr. Zhao has already thought of an escape route for His Highness this time. "
Fang Xuanling said in a deep voice: "If there is no heavy rain, then His Highness will directly say that Mr. Zhao faked the imperial edict and engraved the seal privately, and His Highness will naturally be able to take it clean!"
The atmosphere in the room was a little cold.
Fang Xuanling's words seemed to be accentuated. It was obvious that he was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Chengqian's approach.
It is obvious that Li Chengqian only thinks about himself this time. Of course, what he did is not wrong, but it is the common people who suffer.
Ma Zhou was very sensible and didn't say anything. His current position is not that high. The duty of Zhongshu Province is only the fifth rank or above in the capital. What's more, he doesn't dare to conflict with the prince in person.
Du He wanted to say something else, but Li Chengqian said directly: "Okay!"
The room became quiet, and Li Chengqian said directly: "Since the imperial edict has been issued, let's do it. Mr. Zhao has his own considerations."
Du He said nothing more and said yes.
As for the matter of private seal engraving, Li Chengqian did not pursue it, and it was naturally difficult for Du He to pursue it. To be honest, if this kind of matter is pursued, it is very serious in nature, and it may even be a capital crime.
But Du He also knew very well that the consort could not die. Judging from His Majesty's trust, Zhao Chen could now be regarded as half a prince.
After Li Chengqian and Du He left, Fang Xuanling sighed: "Ma Zhou, what do you think of His Royal Highness?"
Ma Zhouyi smiled: "Don't think too much. The prince is also an ordinary person. Naturally, he has the worries of ordinary people. Not everyone is like the prince-in-law, and his imagination is beyond the reach of ordinary people."
Fang Xuanling nodded, but there was some worry in his eyes: "Is there really going to be a heavy rain in Luoyang?"
¡¡
At the same time, the Tang Dynasty officialdom.
On the official road from Chang'an to Luoyang, the Ministry of Transportation directly selected two groups of road construction teams to continue construction. The two cities are not very far apart, so more than half of the newly built official road has been built.
Tang Jun rode a fast horse, carrying the token given by Zhao Chen in his arms, carrying a sword on his back, and headed straight to Luoyang without anything else.
By the time we arrived in Luoyang, it was already a day and a half later.
Tang Jun looked up at the sky and saw that it was gloomy and light rain started to fall.
Not daring to neglect, Tang Jun went straight to Luoyang Prefecture. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
