Tales of Herding Gods - 222. Chapter 219
As soon as this statement came out, there were buzzing discussions everywhere in the court hall. A cloud covered the entire territory of Yankang State. This was almost impossible, but it happened!
The territory of Yankang Country is vast, 90,000 miles from north to south, and 80,000 miles from east to west. Now it is snowing all over the country, and the heavy snow lasts for six or seven days. This is also impossible!
Supernatural powers have the ability to call the wind and call the rain, but call the wind and call the rain only a small area of rain, a small area of the wind, it is impossible for such a spell to cover the entire territory of Yankang.
But this is not a natural disaster. There is very little snow in the south of the Jinjiang River, and rain and snow are even less likely to occur in the south of the Yangtze River. When it comes to the Lijiang River, the four seasons are like summer, and it is even less likely to snow.
The snowfall across the country is even more incredible!
Emperor Yanfeng coughed, calming the courtiers, and said: “Si Nong, there are probably many Aiqing who don’t understand how terrible this snow is. Come and explain to you Aiqing.”
An old minister came out, it was the farmer of the Yankang court who was in charge of the country’s agriculture, and he bowed and said: “Your Majesty, sirs, in this snow disaster, the crops in the north are already cold and frost-resistant, so they don’t owe next year’s harvest. The key is the south. The crops in the south will freeze to death after this heavy snowfall. By next year, there will be no harvest in the south.”
The Hubu Shangshu hurriedly said: “What does Sinong Master mean to the south?”
“South of Jinjiang.”
All the officials in the court gasped coldly, and Qin Mu was also taken aback.
He has a geographical map of the mountains and rivers of Yankang. Jinjiang also started from Daxu, ran eastward for tens of thousands of miles, and then entered the sea.
The land south of Jinjiang occupies two-thirds of Yankang’s land!
In other words, two-thirds of the land will be lost!
“This… Your Majesty, the minister thought that we should allocate grain and grass from various places to the south to prepare for disaster relief!”
The minister of servants stepped forward and bowed and said: “The south has just gone through the war, and many counties need disaster relief. I am afraid that the granaries in all counties are already empty. Please also mobilize the granaries in the north to save the people of Li people!”
The Minister of Agriculture sighed and said: “I can’t adjust it right now. Everyone knows that the war consumes grain and grass, and a lot of grain and grass have already been consumed. Now that the grain is allocated to the south, it will only be eaten by the hungry. After eating, the next year Even the grain is gone, there is no grain to grow, and there is no food to eat in the fall. If you are too servant, the hungry people cannot eat, so they will eat people.”
“Should you let the people of the South starve to death?”
The Minister of Agriculture said: “The food will be transported to the south, but it needs to be limited, and only the rations for the victims in the south to hang their lives. In fact, there are granaries in the south, but they are all gathered in the hands of the family lords and landlords. If they are to be moved I’m afraid they will encourage the victims to rebel. Your Majesty…”
Emperor Yanfeng lowered his face and said, “I will find a way for the food of the family’s big lords and landlords. You continue to say.”
“Yes. In addition to the south, there is a major disaster in the north and south.”
The Minister of Agriculture said: “The winter in the north was cold, and this year it was even colder. After walking through several northern counties and counties, I found that farmers were already cutting down trees and burning fires. Many forests in the mountains have been cut down. Bare. The people of the north are cold-resistant, even so, the south can be imagined. If the trees in the south are cut down, mountain torrents, mudslides, and floods will inevitably be endless. Natural disasters will cause man-made disasters, man-made disasters, and will cause them. More natural disasters. If the victims are not allowed to cut trees to keep warm, I am afraid that many people will freeze to death. By then, I am afraid that there will be ten rooms and nine empty spaces…”
Emperor Yanfeng exhaled a suffocating breath, and the officials in the Chaozhong group also calmed down, so quiet that even the panting sound felt heavy and harsh. If you don’t cut wood and burn, farmers will be frozen to death, logging and burning will cause more disasters.
A snow disaster put the huge empire of Yankang country into a dilemma.
The Minister of Agriculture continued: “The key is still to know how long this cloud will last. If the clouds disappear in the past few days, the loss can be minimized. If it does not disperse, the country is in danger, and the society is in danger!”
“I… got it.”
Emperor Yanfeng sat down, somewhat powerless, and said, “You Aiqing now know how critical the situation is? A few days ago, when the rebels rebelled, I was still at ease and didn’t care about it. I knew they would not be able to get things done, and sooner or later. It was wiped out by the national teacher and all the Aiqings. But this snow disaster and this cloud will cut off my national fortune in Yankang! Aiqing, do you have a solution?”
The Manchu civil and military fell into silence.
It’s because they have great magical powers, and they can’t blow the cloud or melt the snow.
Emperor Yanfeng looked at the officials under his court, and he felt angry and anxious. A snow and a cloud would make this empire fall apart, and would he have to make hundreds of years of hard work dissipate?
A civil official said: “The minister thought that this was the reform of the national teacher, which angered the sky…”
Emperor Yanfeng was furious: “Drag it out and chop it!”
The civil official knelt down, crying and robbing the ground, his voice hoarse: “Your Majesty, there is a way of heaven in the sky, and the reform of the national teacher is to change the way of heaven. Therefore, the sky is angry, and the sky is angry.
“Come on!”
Emperor Yanfeng was furious: “The national disaster still confuses the crowd, and if you don’t cut him, do you want me to cut him personally?”
The guards in the Jinluang Temple hurriedly came and dragged the civil official away, only to hear the civil official’s cries fade away.
Emperor Yanfeng hurriedly walked two steps, suppressing his anger: “What I want is a competent minister who can do things, not a minister who can only open his mouth to slander! This reform is what I want to change, not a national teacher! I am also angry and resent me! The national teacher is a capable minister, let alone five hundred years, even if it is a thousand or two thousand years, it is rare to see it! ”
“Your Majesty, why not take this cloud away?”
Suddenly, the next voice said: “Since the cloud can’t be dispelled, then just keep the cloud away.”
The officials of the cultural relics followed the sound, and Emperor Yanfeng also looked over, saying, “It turns out that it is Doctor Zhongsan. What advice does Doctor Zhongsan have? Let’s talk about it.”
Qin Mu said: “The minister once saw treasures such as fire gourd in the army. The sergeant stored his real fire in the fire gourd on weekdays, and released the fire in the fire gourd during the war. The Tai Hospital failed to refining medicine. , Ma turned over the Tai Academy, it was the former Great Jijiu who used a gourd to take the anesthetic away and rescued the Tai Academy. The minister thought, could this cloud of clouds be included in the gourd and other spiritual treasures?”
Emperor Yanfeng looked at General Tiance and said, “Does General Qin think it is feasible?”
General Tiance’s surname is Qin Jian, the head of a military commander, and the supreme leader of the Qin family, the great ruler in the capital. He went out and said: “Your Majesty, the words of Dr. Zhongsan are feasible. However, there are not so many fire gourds in the army. The fire gourd used in the army is a wisteria gourd, which is handed over to the Suzaku army. There are a total of one million fire gourds throughout the country. One million fire gourds can take away the cloud of a province, but so many provinces in the country, Just relying on the fire gourd in the army can’t do it.”
Qin Mu said: “Although there are few gourds in the army, there are officials who practice spells everywhere. Aristocratic families and officials in the DPRK are even more powerful like forests. Your Majesty has ordered the magicians from all over the country to make treasures and take away the clouds in the sky. All over the country. There are so many supernatural powers in China. The county magistrates, Shao Yin, and Fu Yin are all strong, each responsible for their own jurisdiction. Coupled with the strong in the army going to various places to remedy, it is expected that the dark cloud can be wiped out. Eight.”
Emperor Yanfeng thought: “It is difficult to mobilize magical powers from all over the country to clear the clouds. It is a bit difficult, and some are idle and magical. They don’t listen to the words of the court…”
“Therefore, your Majesty needs to do it personally, and act as an example for the day.”
Qin Mu said: “Your Majesty went out of Beijing and went to the provinces to collect the clouds in person. Naturally, it is the people’s Jing Cong.”
Many ministers of civil and military affairs looked at each other. The emperor went out of Beijing to collect the clouds in person? Now that the chaos has just settled down, I’m afraid that the remnants of those sects will take the opportunity to assassinate them.
Yankang Guoshi went to the Daxu and returned home unfailingly, and was attacked on the road. The emperor came out of Beijing, fearing that he would be subjected to various assassinations!
Everyone was about to talk, Emperor Yanfeng’s eyes lit up and smiled: “Yes. Qin Aiqing, do you have any way to deal with this snow disaster?”
“The snow disaster has already occurred, and the minister can do nothing.”
Qin Mu said: “But the minister has heard that the way of a saint is no different from the people’s daily use. There are so many magical powers in the world. If the snow melts after the sun comes out, these magical powers can go down to the ground in person and get rid of them for the people everywhere. Frozen crops, replant crops, there may be some harvest in the coming year. If there is no wind, the rice will be eared. If there is no wind, please ask the supernatural powers to send the wind. If weeds are overgrown, please ask the supernatural powers to weed the weeds. Deworming, frost is falling from the sky, then ask the supernatural powers to defrost with fire.”
“Your Majesty, this is the word of the magic way!”
A civil servant trembling with anger, went out and said: “Your Majesty, Doctor Zhongsan spit out the words of the magic way, it will harm the country and the people, and be punishable!”
Emperor Yanfeng smiled and said: “This sentence is very correct, why is it the word of the magic way? This is not a good word for ruining the country and the people, but for ruling the country and saving the people. Your official position has been revoked, and you can go home for self-reflection. Qin Aiqing, what else do you have? Good strategy?”
Qin Mu thought: “Your Majesty can also let the Superintendent of Heaven monitor the weather in various places. In the year of floods, rain clouds can be collected into spirit treasures such as gourds. In the year of hurricanes, hurricanes can be collected into spirit treasures, such as tornadoes, hail, thunder and lightning. , Can be put away for future use. If there is a drought year, you can release heavy rain, if you go to war with foreign countries, you can release hail, snow, thunder and lightning, tornadoes, control the celestial phenomenon, and attack enemy countries. This year’s snow disaster has made Yankang so brilliant The nation’s fortunes of the great powers of China were almost destroyed. Which country can afford to use this kind of celestial magical powers on enemy countries?”
“Your Majesty, manipulating the celestial phenomena is against the way of heaven, this is the words of the magic way!”
Another civil official came out, knocked his head repeatedly, knocked his head to bloodshed, and sternly said: “True words of the magic way, this is to destroy our country! Your Majesty, please quickly punish this magic way!”
“You have been dismissed.”
Emperor Yanfeng waved his hand and said with a smile: “I can’t come up with ideas, and I’m still talking nonsense, attacking the scattered doctors. I pay you a lot of salary every month. What’s the use of raising you? It is to destroy our country! Come, drag him down. Doctor Zhongsan, knows easy and difficult things, this time for disaster relief, you follow me.”
Qin Mu hesitated, embarrassed: “The minister still has to go home for the New Year… the minister recommends a few people, maybe they can help your majesty.”
Emperor Yanfeng laughed, only to feel that the clouds that had hung in his heart disappeared, and waved his hand: “That’s right. I’m right now when I’m using people. If the person you recommend is really useful, I won’t treat you badly.”
Wei Guogong’s heart shook slightly: “The Heavenly Demon Sect is about to enter the court… But then again, I am the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Zhenjiao Heavenly King, and I have entered the imperial court a long time ago. This little leader is really a camper, and the national teacher is not here these days. In the imperial court, he took the opportunity to lay in his hands. If the national teacher has not been seen for a few years, I am afraid that even the emperor is a member of his demon sect! Where has the national teacher gone? He has been visiting the mountains and rivers with his wife for so long, and he has come out of such a big one. Nothing will come back…”
