    Emperor Hongzhi became excited.

    There is news

    Now the roads there are isolated and the people have been displaced. The original county and villages have long been beyond recognition. No one knows where the people have fled. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to get the news as quickly as possible.

    Now that there is news, it has greatly exceeded Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s expectations.

    Emperor Hongzhi said: "Nian."

    "After I learned about the earthquake, Lingqiu County magistrates sent letters to report. Lingqiu County has been devastated since the earthquake, with thousands of houses collapsed and countless casualties. The aftermath of the earthquake lasted for three days, with mountains sliding down and rivers  The embankments collapsed, and the soldiers and civilians of Lingqiu were trapped in fire and water. Without rescue, they were afraid of natural disasters and human disasters. The magistrates also reported that Hu Kaishan, a giant bandit in Lingqiu County, had been listed as an imperial prisoner in his early years. The government had repeatedly encircled and suppressed him.  Instead, he was executed by him. This thief was ferocious. It was said that he was ten feet long, had a tiger's back and waist, and was invincible to a hundred people. Now, this thief took advantage of the situation and gathered thousands of people in chaos, roaming Lingqiu. The soldiers and civilians in the disaster area were dying before their eyes. I beg your majesty to make a decision  .¡±

    ""

    Hearing the tragic situation in the disaster area, Emperor Hongzhi felt as if he had a big stone stuck in his throat.

    But what really made him change his mind was the thief Hu Kaishan.

    Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Xiao Jing.

    Xiao Jing was the governor of the East Factory. After understanding Emperor Hongzhi's eyes, he quickly said: "This man, I have some impressions. This man is really powerful. He once single-handedly attacked the grain team, killed dozens of guards and looted property.  Datong Dusi once encircled and suppressed it, but it's a pity"

    Snapped!

    As soon as he heard this, Emperor Hongzhi became furious.

    "Can Datong Dusi not wipe out a mere thief?"

    "This" Xiao Jing said, dumbfounded: "He is hiding in the mountains"

    Emperor Hongzhi sneered: "But now, taking advantage of the great disaster, he came out to harm people and took thousands of people hostage. Have you ever thought about how big a human disaster this would cause? Have you ever thought about the prince and Fang Jifan?  What will happen if we are there with the students of Xishan Academy and are attacked by these evil bandits?"

    Xiao Jing went to the imperial city and said in fear, "My slave I will die! I will personally go to Lingqiu to find His Highness the Crown Prince no matter what."

    Emperor Hongzhi said angrily: "I can't wait to go. I stay in the Forbidden City and have trouble sleeping and eating. If I hadn't been the emperor, I would be in Lingqiu County now. Order: There is a big disaster in Lingqiu County. All the elite cavalry from the capital camp will be mobilized."  Five thousand people arrived near Lingqiu County to try to see if they could enter the disaster area. Before entering, they needed to be cautious and never do so, because entering hastily would make the officers and soldiers a burden. The mountain roads in the county were isolated and there were not enough people.  Food, it is useless for these people to go in, they can only be used as support."

    At this point, Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "I ordered the cabinet scholar Xie Qian to lead the team and select some people to go to Lingqiu County in person to find a way to enter the disaster area. I always feel that a group of children ran there,  Don¡¯t worry, Xie Qing¡¯s family is here, if we can find them, it will be easier.¡±

    Emperor Hongzhi was so anxious at this time that he couldn't care about anything at the moment. Although there was a precedent for the imperial court to send officials to the disaster areas, they were usually the ministers of the imperial court or the imperial censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, like today.  The specifications are rare.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Xie Qian received the emperor's order, which made many people worry about him!

    The situation in Lingqiu County is still unclear. If you go in at this time, many unexpected things are very likely to happen. I dare not say that you will escape death, but your life will be in danger, but it is certain.

    Xie Qian was quite indifferent. What he was more worried about was not his own safety. There was a prince in Lingqiu County and so many students from Xishan Academy. All of them were closely related.

    What's more, judging from the current situation, if the relief to Lingqiu County is not timely, the banditry will intensify. Lingqiu County is next door to Beizhili. If there are thousands of bandits raging, it will be  What a terrible thing.

    He knew that his burden was heavy.

    "It is understandable that His Majesty allowed himself, a cabinet scholar, to enter Lingqiu County. Apart from a prime minister like himself, who else has the ability to quickly stabilize the situation in the disaster area?"

    Xie Qian is by no means looking down on anyone in this civil and military dynasty, but there are not many people who can truly stand alone.

    However, it was difficult for Xie Qian to select candidates for the disaster area. This time, people who wanted to go to the disaster area were surprisingly enthusiastic. Shen Wen, a scholar of Hanlin University, was the first to come to the door to ask for help. He insisted on going.  No, in his words, he must die in Lingqiu.

    There were quite a few other officials, and they were actually scrambling to be the first.

    Thank you?

    Let¡¯s go!

    Xie Qian is not a person who loves the people, but only covets his own personal enjoyment.

    It¡¯s just He is a human being, an old man, made of flesh and blood. He is about to die and steps into the coffin. He has never suffered so much in his life.

    He wished his feet were sprained.

    But he also knew very well that even if he sprained his ankle, he wouldn't be able to escape. Let's go, let's go, and simply die here.

    So he gritted his teeth and continued to stagger forward with support, dragging his trembling calves.

    Along this road, almost no one could be seen, only traces of devastation and massive destruction by landslides, and there would always be some strange noises in the mountains and forests. Xie Qian was worried, and he was not sure whether the thieves were hiding here.  He was nearby, ready to rush out at any time and kill them all as a group of exhausted people.

    But the others seemed to be indifferent and continued to move forward, with urgency and hope in their eyes.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
