Chapter 577: Demotion and loss

: : : : : : : : : : : : : : :

After receiving the urgent report, Li Shilong looked at it, his face turned pale, "Hurry, call Gongsun Wuji and the others!"

Soon, Gongsun Wuji and others came, and there were more than a dozen people standing in the Ganlu Palace.

"Tell me, how to deal with this matter!" Li Shilong's face looked particularly bad, "So many people have moved out from the northwest, and even though the disaster has not yet faded, no one has ever been hungry.

Is it because officials force the people to rebel, or is it because some people are inactive?”

"Your Majesty, there is something wrong with this White Lotus Sect!" Gongsun Wuji said: "The disaster in the northwest has been properly controlled, and the other affected counties have also been exempted from taxes and labor service for three years, so there is no reason to force these people to rebel."

Du Jingming also said: "Your Majesty, I think that this White Lotus Sect should be transformed by the remnants of the previous dynasty. They just don't want us to solve this disaster, so they will make trouble when the disaster is about to end!"

"Shangshu Du's words are reasonable!" Yu Boshi bowed and said, "This time the drought has affected four roads, and the northwest is the most serious. The most urgent thing is to cut off the White Lotus Sect."

"Chengqian, what do you think?" Li Shilong asked.

"My son thought that Chai Shao was not doing his job well and should be reprimanded. However, the White Lotus Sect appeared in Tongwei County, and the local county magistrate could not refuse the blame and should be pursued!"

Li Xin said in a deep voice: "In addition, send another Deli to suppress the rebellion!"

Li Xin's words made many people frown.

Chai Shao did a good job in the northwest, which is obvious to all. Li Xin's words denied his efforts for more than half a year.

"My son thinks that this matter should be done as soon as possible. My son is afraid that someone in the court will criticize Chai Shao and the remnants of the previous dynasty and will slander Chai Shao. It is best to issue an order to let him come back as soon as possible.

Chai Shao’s work in the northwest is remarkable, and he has no credit and hard work. In addition, Chai Shao is about to get married, so he can also give him a good rest!"

"Your Majesty, Duke Chai made an indelible contribution to the northwest. He first eliminated the locust plague and then helped the victims. It was Duke Chai who was in charge that allowed the court to survive this disaster so smoothly!"

Yu Boshi said: "There was a drought in the fourth year of Wude. At that time, tens of thousands of people were starved to death, starving everywhere, and the grass and trees on the road were eaten up. How many people ate Guanyin dirt and died of stomach swelling.

This year's severe drought is even worse than the four years of Wude, and it is accompanied by locust plague, but no one starved to death. This is a miracle!"

Li Xin looked at Yu Boshi, his eyes flashing. How could Yu Boshi help Chai Shao speak?

He was a little puzzled!

"It is Your Majesty who has a good plan and is in good condition. If he still can't do this with the money from the court, he will be a waste!"

Ji Zhisheng said: "Your Majesty, let Chai Shao return to Beijing to avoid gossiping!"

Qin Xiangru couldn't stand it anymore, "Gombling? What gossip is it? Your Majesty, although Chai Shao is my relative, I should have avoided suspicion, but I really couldn't stand it anymore.

If he had an affair with the remnants of the previous dynasty, why did he cause trouble when the disaster was about to pass, and why didn't he cause trouble when the disaster was at its worst?

The remnants of the previous dynasty are not fools, right? If they were to make trouble at the worst time, they might have captured several city-states at this time!

Therefore, I think that this Lao Shizi White Lotus Sect is just a guise used by ambitious people to attack loyal ministers!”

"Qin Xiangru, what do you mean?" Ji Zhisheng frowned, "Where are you pointing at the mulberry tree and scolding the locust tree?"

"I just expressed my opinion, who did you scold me?"

Qin Xiangru smiled and said, "At this time, the unstable morale of the army is the only person who spreads rumors is the true intention of his heart!"
