MTL - I Want To Be Qin II-Chapter 1076 Public opinion soared, and the Empress Dowager Huayang died.
Chapter 1076 Public opinion took off, and the Empress Dowager Huayang died.
Sometimes, there is a big change, but there is no big problem. The most taboo thing is that this kind of thing happens at a critical moment.
Today, the Daqin Dynasty is up and down, dedicated to going east and unifying the countries in the Central Plains. However, disasters meet unexpectedly, which makes the Daqin Dynasty a little discouraged.
"The ministers and others will meet the king, the king for ten thousand years, the Daqin for ten thousand years...!" Li Si and the others walked into the study of Xianyang Palace and saluted Yingzheng, saying.
Seeing Li Si and others coming, Ying Zheng stretched out his hand to signal Li Si and others to take their seats, calmed all the emotions in his heart, and then moved towards Li Si and others, saying: "There is news from the Black Ice Terrace that Longxi County and Beidi County have appeared. There is a drought, and there are countless hungry people.”
"The prince's guess has been thoroughly confirmed!"
Hearing the words, Li Si and the others had serious expressions on their faces. At this moment, no one spoke, everyone was contemplating, and the atmosphere of the entire study fell into a dead silence.
"Your Majesty, I have received the news. Rumors have already spread in Guanzhong and Shandong. It's just that the drought has only just begun to show signs of disaster, and the rumors have not started."
Li Si's words made the study fall silent again.
Bad things happened one after another, and Qin Chaotang was so overwhelmed that he couldn't breathe.
"Your Majesty, there is news from the Crown Prince!" Dun weak walked into the study of Xianyang Palace and put the silk book in his hand on Ying Zheng's desk.
nodded, Ying Zheng watched Dun weak leave, just picked up the silk book on the desk, opened it and read it carefully.
When Yingzheng finished reading the content on the silk book, the solemn expression on his face disappeared. As one of the controllers of the Jiannan Chamber of Commerce, he knew the terrifying ability to attract money from the three major chambers of commerce under the master of Yingzheng.
If it is as recorded in the silk book, with Ying Gao's intervention, the three major chambers of commerce will take action at the same time, which can completely stabilize the current situation.
After reading this, Ying Zheng handed the silk book in his hand to Li Si: "This is the news sent by the prince. All the nobles should read it, and then talk about each other's views."
"No."
took the silk book from Yingzheng, and Li Si looked at it with a solemn expression. At this moment, Zhao Gao hurried over from outside the study, bowed his hands to Yingzheng, and said.
"Your Majesty, there is news from the harem that the Queen Mother has passed away."
Just this sentence, the atmosphere in the whole study became more serious, it was really a boat leak and it rained overnight, and bad things were piled up.
"It happened after all!"
Yingzheng stood up from the throne with a dignified face, and said, "Block the palace, and the news of the death of the Empress Huayang should not be spread out at the moment."
"As for the affairs of Longxi County and Beidi County, with the intervention of the prince, there is basically no major problem, but the government bureau needs to formulate a policy to resettle the hungry."
"The rescue of the three major chambers of commerce is only to prevent them from starving to death. The government officials should come up with a strategy for how to resettle them."
Having said this, Yingzheng looked solemn and said to Wei Liao and the others: "At the same time, announce to the Qin people that the Empress Dowager Huayang has passed away."
"As for the funeral of the Empress Dowager Huayang, how to handle it, the imperial family will come up with a plan, and the national captain will be responsible for the rumors first."
"No."
At this moment, both Wei Liao and Li Si are aware of the big deal. At this time, one thing must be dealt with.
"Your Majesty, the prince is heading west. Now that the Empress Dowager Huayang has passed away, do you want to bring the prince back?" After a while of silence, Li Si said towards Yingzheng.
"The affairs of the state are great, and the emperor's westward journey is for the stability of Daqin, and the stability of Xiazhou and Liangzhou. They have already set off, so there is no need to recall them."
Yingzheng looked calm, and said to Li Si and the others: "Tell the clan over there that Empress Huayang's funeral should be kept simple and not a big deal."
"No."
…
As time passed, the official government announced that the Empress Dowager Huayang had passed away, and the news spread throughout the Central Plains.
At the same time, disasters continued to break out in Longxi County and Beidi County, and a steady stream of hungry people poured into Guanzhong from the two counties.
The rumors that the Great Qin court was taking precautions also spread from all over Shandong.
"Violent desire to swallow the world, this is retribution, this is God's punishment for violent Qin!"
"The king of Qin was tyrannical and forced the queen mother to death. If Qin starts to destroy the country again, he will be destroyed!"
"Longxi, two counties in the north, the ground split three hundred zhang, the Qin people's earth line has been broken, and the Qin people will be destroyed. This is all caused by the tyrannical killing of Qin Wangzheng and the prince Yinggao."
"The country of Qin has become a dangerous state, and will vent the anger of the foreigners who slaughtered in Qin!"
and so on, and so on.
The exaggeration of the disaster situation is somewhat bizarre and terrifying, and various prophecies, divinations, hexagrams, and nursery rhymes about celestial phenomena have been circulated.
Every rumor, if heard by someone who doesn't know the inside story, can be said to be conclusive.
Rumors spread everywhere, and the three became tigers, so that the merchants of Shandong in Xianyang began to leave Qin in succession, and the people of the country and the people were uneasy.
One after another report about the rumors was sent to the desk of the King of Qin. Yingzheng's face was ugly, he finished the examination of the last scroll of bamboo slips, threw it on the long desk, sneered, and said.
"It is ridiculous to want to use despicable rumors to change the decline of the Shandong countries, and to stop my Daqin from going east to destroy the country!"
"Don't say it's a little rumor, even if it's true, I will be firm and unswerving in the strategy of swallowing up the Shandong countries."
Yingzheng's roar resounded in the Zhangtai Palace, and he felt angry and amused by the methods of the Shandong countries.
"Zhao Gao, passed the order to the weak, Li Si and Wei Liao entered the study, and at the same time sent orders to the general of Xianyang to ensure the stability of Xianyang city."
"And let the head of the clan, Lord Weiyang, enter the study."
"No."
The Empress Dowager Huayang passed away, Qin Wangzheng was taking care of filial piety, but state affairs were important, Yingzheng rarely went to the mourning hall, everything was handled by the clan.
Yingzheng knew in his heart that things had happened, all problems had to be resolved, and the Great Qin court had to respond. Only in this way could the situation be prevented from further corruption.
Especially the funeral of the Empress Huayang must be resolved as soon as possible.
…
Half an hour later, Li Si and the others rushed to Zhangtai Palace, saluted Yingzheng, and said, "I will meet the king, the king is for ten thousand years, and the Qin Dynasty is ten thousand years old!"
"You don't have to be polite!"
Yingzheng waved his hand, motioned for Li Si and others to take their seats, and said, "Because of the early response, my country in Daqin is as stable as Mount Tai."
"However, rumors have come from Shandong countries, and now people are panicking. How do you Aiqing think we should solve this matter?"
Hearing this, Li Si frowned. Seeing everyone was thinking, he couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, this minister thinks that the government office will continue to accommodate the hungry, and at the same time, we will deal with the funeral of the Empress Dowager Huayang first."
"The matter has come to this point. We should solve it one by one. It is difficult to eradicate the hunger in a short period of time. Only the funeral of the Empress Dowager Huayang can be ended in a short time..."
