"Shandong Governor Zhao Yan reported:

On the night of the sixth day of the lunar month, the ground in Yuncheng was cracked and the sound was like thunder, chickens and dogs barking, and the walls and houses collapsed.

The ministers and the governor of Denglai, Yuan Keli and others, including the Secretary, Caozhou, Chengwu, Caoxian, Puzhou, Chaocheng, Jinxiang, and Yutai, were all shocked and heard.

Where the earth cracks spread, there are Dong'a, Pingyin, Dongpingzhou, Wenshang, Dingtao; Licheng, Jiyang, Qidong, Zouping, Yangxin, Zibo, and Xintai.

Dongchang Prefecture Liaocheng, Shenxian, Guantao; Guangping Prefecture Qinghe, Jize, Feixiang, Cheng'an; Henan Prefecture Luoyang, Yanshi; Kaifeng Prefecture Qixian, Weishi.

Guide Prefecture has more than 30 prefectures, prefectures and counties in three provinces, including Shangqiu, Suizhou, Luyi, Yangwu, Xuzhou, Xiaoxian, Peixian and Fengxian.

In the six prefectures in Shandong alone, the city walls collapsed more than 7,900 feet, more than 11,800 houses collapsed, more than 16,000 livestock killed, and more than 12,000 men and women killed.

In the other provinces, their houses were destroyed, the city was broken, and the people were injured and injured, and even more so.

After this shock, the six cities in Shandong were preparing for a huge reduction, and hundreds of thousands of refugees were added, waiting to be fed. However, the warehouses were already exhausted, and I dared to send grain and silver to provide disaster relief and peace to the people!"

Zhu Youxiao closed the memorial and looked a little solemn.

Judging from the memorial, the epicenter of this earthquake was Yuncheng, Shandong, but the aftershock also affected Henan and Huguang provinces.

Judging from later experience, the magnitude will not be less than 6.

Such a serious earthquake occurred in the late Ming Dynasty, which would obviously make the tight finances worse, and the already deflated arms in various places would also become even weaker.

Once a rebellion arose, Shandong will have almost no resistance!

If you remember wrongly every time, Xu Hongru will rebel in Shandong in a few months. You must prepare in advance and prevent problems before they happen.

Such a major disaster at this time had almost no less impact than the Wenchuan earthquake in later generations.

As the emperor and the supreme ruler of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youxiao had to lead the court to react immediately, do everything possible to save more people and save them from suffering.

First of all, we must settle the affected people and determine the real disaster situation in various places as quickly as possible.

Secondly, it is to eliminate the "Xu Hongru Uprising" in history from the beginning!

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao sorted out his thoughts in his mind and threw down the memorial of Shandong Governor Zhao Yan, saying:

"The order was sent to Yang Zhaoji to lead his troops to move from Suzhou to Yuncheng, and to open a banner to the people. If anyone takes the opportunity to cause trouble, he will be killed without mercy!"

After saying that, he watched the eunuch run to the Sili Supervisor to announce the imperial edict. Zhu Youxiao turned his attention to the two ministers in the West Warm Pavilion and asked lightly:

"Wang Zaijin, what do you have to say?"

In fact, after hearing the news of the major earthquake in Shandong, Henan and Huguang, Wang Zaijin was thinking about how to minimize the losses.

At this moment, the emperor had this question, and he responded calmly, stood up and said:

"I think that just by Zhao Yan's memorial, I cannot determine the disaster situation in Shandong, Henan and Huguang."

"The court needs to send a large number of officials to various places to find out the real situation, and order them to submit memorials and go straight to the Xihunting Pavilion when they arrive at the place."

"After finding out the disaster situation in various places, you can discuss in the cabinet department how to divide materials, manpower and effectively provide disaster relief in various places."

"You said it right, I also thought this way." Zhu Youxiao nodded and said:

"But, after we find out the situation in various places, we will hold a ministry discussion, from at least one month to half a year. Can the court wait for the disaster-stricken people afford it?"

Wang Zaijin also said: "Your Majesty is benevolent and sage, and loves the people, and is beyond the reach of his ministers."

Zhu Youxiao now has no intention of listening to any flattery. When he thinks of the TV series about the Wenchuan earthquake in later generations, he wants to send troops to rescue the disaster immediately.

"The king is in Jin. From now on, I will treat you as the imperial envoy and rush to Yuncheng, Shandong to preside over disaster relief matters."

"What's the difficulty, but it's okay!"

Wang Zaijin was obviously shocked by such a quick decision.

Throughout history, such a sudden earthquake in several provinces, the court's disaster relief has been discussed for a long time and carefully arranged.

On the day of receiving the memorial, the court appointed the imperial envoy to rush to the disaster area. This is the first case!

"The incident happened suddenly, and it is really difficult to accomplish this with the help of me alone. Please send two of you to help me!" Wang Zaijin thought for a moment and then said.

Zhu Youxiao sat quietly, tapping his fingers on the imperial desk, pondered for a moment, and said:

"speak!"

"Yang Sichang, the Huaibei Fushi Office, Wen Tiren, the youngest secretary of the Zhanshi Office in Nanjing, and the Huaibei Prefectures were famined in the first year of Tianqi, and they all helped their ministers to make great efforts..."

Wang Zaijin said this as soon as he clicked, and then lowered his eyes to the ground, feeling uneasy.

He was brave enough to recommend these two people this time, because although their reputation was not good, they did put a lot of effort into local disaster relief than those who talked about it.

Second, Wang Zaijin also has selfish thoughts about himself.

The emperor's heart, the needle under the sea.

If he wants to use these two people, he will naturally use them, but if he doesn't want to use them, no matter how much he introduces it, it will be useless.

Zhu Youxiao's brows were frivolous and he was quietly watching him.

After counting breaths, he said lightly:

"The emperor ordered the king to be the imperial envoy in Jin, and distributed 1.5 million taels of silver in the treasury to Shandong to preside over disaster relief matters.

Another instructed that Yang Sichang, the Huaibei Investment Department, was promoted to the Left General of the Shandong Chengxuan General for his contribution to the great famine in Huaibei.

Wen Tiren, the youngest secretary of the Nanjing Zhanshifu, was also promoted to the position of the Shandong Dao Censor.

Assist the imperial envoy and provide disaster relief to the people, there must be no mistakes!"

When Wang Zaijin left, Zhu Youxiao called Xu Xianchun and said quietly:

"I recently received a secret report saying that Shandong Yinxiang Sect is ready to move. There is a man named Xu Hongru who is plotting to rebel."

"You go to the Shandong Supervisory Office in person. During the disaster relief period in Jin Dynasty, Wang reported his disaster relief work every three days and reported it to me."

"Also, you must secretly investigate the matters of the Scented Incense Sect and find out clearly. Don't be alerted in advance!"

"If there is a crisis, if you don't have time to ask me for instructions, you can also go to Yang Zhaoji, just say it's what I mean."

Speaking of the Scented Sect, Xu Xianchun is very familiar with it, and that is his old rival.

Everyone knows that the Scented Incense Sect was founded by a man named Wang Sen in Shifokou, Luanzhou, Hebei during the Wanli Dynasty.

Xu Xianchun was only in his teens at that time and was a small banner official in the Northern Fushi Department. He had once taken the preceptor of the famous Wang Sen.

This guy has suffered severe torture and was very tough at first, but he finally came to the real trick.

He claimed that he had saved a fox, and the fox cut off its tail and gave it to him. There was a strange fragrance, so he called his disciples and many of them to join him. Therefore, he called him the Wenxiang Sect and called himself the Wenxiang Sect leader. His followers were spread throughout Ji, Shandong, Gan, Jin, Yu, Qin, Sichuan and other places.

It is also said that the Sinning Sect believes in the Buddha of Lantern, Sakyamuni, and the Future Buddha. They promote the three final disasters in the Beizhenfushi, return to the origin, and all kinds of fallacies and evil sayings are serious.

Surprisingly, there was a lieutenant of the tutoring department at that time. He took advantage of the dark moon and high winds and sacrificed his life to rescue Wang Sen from the prison.

Of course, this was useless. Wang Sen escaped for a few years and was arrested and returned to prison. That time, the Beizhen Fushi also took a ruthless move and tortured him to death.

Actually, I don’t want to ask anything, I just want to kill him.

Xu Xianchun couldn't understand what Wang Sen said and had no interest in it. He was always crawling up.

Anyway, in Xu Xianchun's view at that time, the Winter Scent Sect and the White Lotus Sect had the same origin, and were both cults that intended to shake the country of the Ming Dynasty.

Since it is a cult, it must be completely eliminated. If the cult is eliminated, you can be valued by the emperor and make contributions to the country. Why not do it?

This time after taking on this job, Xu Xianchun also sneered in his heart, saying that the enemy was narrow and the old acquaintance met again.

He immediately clasped his fists and said:

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I have taken care of Wang Sen in my early years, and Xu Hongru also escaped from me. I am very familiar with the Winter Storm. When I go to Shandong this time, I must have revenge and revenge. I will pull the Winter Storm away for Your Majesty!"

"With you, I will feel much more at ease. Let's go and arrange it."

After Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at the imperial seal hanging behind him. Recently, the court officials were talking about whether this thing was true or false.

But Zhu Youxiao doesn't care.

I want this jade seal to be true, and the Ming Dynasty needs this jade seal to be true, so it must be true!

As for Wei Zhongxian's strange image in the mansion of King Xin Zhu Youjian last time, Zhu Youxiao was also concerned. If this guy was really a son of the plane like Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, he would have to get rid of him at the seventh year of the Apocalypse.

Wang Mang was looking for Liu Xiu in Liu Xiu'er. If I killed the wrong one, I would be different. In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youjian was the only one who killed him. Could it be that Zhu Youjian could appear?

So there is no hurry now, keep looking. If this kid is really ambitious, it will not be too late to get rid of him.
