Chapter 176 Your Majesty, Gu Jinnian, is willing to contribute national policies and solve the difficulties of Great Xia [Second update, please vote for me!!!]
There is a severe drought in Jiangzhong County.
Earthquake in Longxi County.
Donglin County volcano.
Heavy snowfall in Nanyue County.
Fire and stone fell in Daxia.
Five things, any one of them would be one of the top priorities in the Great Xia Dynasty.
Now that they are all colliding together, how can this be as simple as a natural disaster?
This is going to destroy the Great Xia Dynasty.
Jiangzhong County was the place with the richest grain production in the Daxia Dynasty besides the Jiangnan region. The annual grain tax paid by this place ranked second. Now there is a severe drought in Jiangzhong County, locusts are passing through, and all the crops are gone. Next year, the Daxia Dynasty will
It will be severely damaged.
The Daxia Dynasty itself has some financial deficits, and now all the civil and military officials in the dynasty are trying to find ways to solve it.
If something like this happens, people will really be killed.
The earthquake in Longxi County made Emperor Yongsheng even more silent. Longxi County is a relatively poor place, but it has a very large population. If an earthquake occurs, God knows how many people will die and how many people will suffer.
Not to mention Donglin County. Donglin County is named after Lin. This area has many mountains and forests, with thousands of miles of mountains and rivers. They are dense and prosperous. When he was not yet the emperor, he followed Taizu to Donglin County to escape the summer heat.
Once a volcanic eruption occurs, the fire will continue and it will be difficult to stop it. There are also many monsters and beasts in the mountains and forests. After encountering the fire, they escape, and it is the people who suffer.
It snowed heavily in Nanyue County and froze three feet. It seemed like the lightest thing, but he knew very well that Nanyue County was one of the two rivers. There was a main river in Daxia, and it had to pass through Nanyue County. If the main road was frozen
If it is too small, it will cause lower branch rivers and affect the growth of crops in other counties.
On a more serious scale, once it lasts for about half a year, floods will occur again in the hot summer.
The most important thing is that seventeen more flints fell.
Is this going to subjugate the country?
"This is impossible."
In the Yangxin Hall, Emperor Yongsheng stood up. He would rather believe that King Ning suddenly rebelled than believe that the Great Xia Dynasty would suddenly face so many catastrophes.
Each of these five things is extremely difficult, and each failure to handle them will lead to huge consequences.
Now all five things come together.
This means subjugating the country.
If at this juncture, King Ning chooses to rebel, it will be a big trouble.
In particular, the Xiongnu Kingdom is still watching the border, waiting for the opportunity to take revenge.
I am afraid that the Fuluo Dynasty and the Dajin Dynasty will also be ready to make a move.
When such a shocking disaster occurs, the people will inevitably be filled with resentment, and those who are interested will stir up trouble at will.
He used his usurpation of the throne as a reason to make up some rumors.
That would be a devastating disaster.
In the Yangxin Hall, Emperor Yongsheng had a gloomy face and looked at these people with fierce eyes.
The soldiers who came to report the news could not help but kneel on the ground, their faces turned pale with fright, but they could not say anything.
Because these things are true.
They didn't lie at all.
"His Majesty."
"The celestial map does show that there will be a major disaster, and"
Mrs. Xu didn't want to speak at all, but when it came to the fundamental matters of the dynasty, he didn't dare not to say anything. If he didn't say anything, it would delay the matter, and he would be cut into pieces.
"And what?"
Emperor Yongsheng's tone was a little anxious. He didn't want to hear any more bad news.
"Moreover, I discovered that there is a greater disaster hidden in it. It has been revealed, but it is very strange."
Xu Taiyi spoke up and said what Emperor Yongsheng least wanted to hear.
There is a greater disaster hidden inside.
Subconsciously, Emperor Yongsheng thought of 'Prince Ning's rebellion'. Apart from this, he didn't know what else could be called a greater disaster.
"Xu Taiyi, contact the Immortal Sects quickly and ask all the Immortal Sects in Daxia to send people to hand over to the Ministry of Rites."
"Also, please investigate this matter thoroughly for me. This matter is definitely not that simple."
"So many natural disasters gathered together cannot be a test of the national destiny."
"There must be other secrets behind this."
"If you find out, everything is easy to explain. I will reward you greatly."
"If we can't find out, there is no need for Supervisor Tiansi to exist."
Emperor Yongsheng took a deep breath.
His body was trembling slightly. He didn't think this matter was a test. Someone must be behind it.
As for who it was, he could guess part of it, but not completely.
But now he also understands that it is not a matter of who is not who, the main thing is to deal with it. By the way, let Supervisor Tiansi go to find out, so that he can prepare a backup plan.
"I obey the decree."
Xu Taiyi did not hesitate. If something like this happens and is not handled well, there is indeed no need for Supervisor Tiansi to exist.
Because the dynasty may have to change, what does Supervisor Tiansi care about?
Soon, Emperor Yongsheng's voice continued to ring in the hall.
"Wei Xian, summon all officials to the palace immediately."
"In addition to guarding the border, quickly recall all other princes and princes to the capital."
"Pass on my decree and ask the Town Office Department and the Hanging Deng Department to immediately stabilize the situation in Kyoto."
"Liu Yan, closely observe the dynamics of the vassal kings in various places. I want to know what they are doing every day. Even if it is what kind of tea they drink, I also want to know clearly."
"Also, let the prince, the King of Qin, the King of Wei, the King of Jin, and these useless things come to me quickly."
Emperor Yongsheng was not in a hurry, but was too shocked.
So much so that he really didn't know what to do.
After the orders were issued one by one, Emperor Yongsheng sat down on the dragon throne, then slowly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his heart.
But soon, his voice sounded again.
"There is still a golden year."
"Let Jinnian enter the palace quickly."
"quick."
Emperor Yongsheng was quite anxious when he mentioned Gu Jinnian.
He was so shocked that he almost forgot about Gu Jinnian.
For some reason, Emperor Yongsheng's panicked heart calmed down a little when he called out the name Gu Jinnian.
In this way, the palace suddenly started to move, and figures came out of the palace quickly without any hesitation.
Inside the Yangxin Hall.
Emperor Yongsheng closed his eyes. There were countless distracting thoughts in his mind. He had a splitting headache and was very upset.
He is the emperor for sure.
But he is human after all.
Not God!
If the emperor is a god, then why do dynasties change? No matter how great the emperor is, he just has something more unique than ordinary people.
Not to mention Emperor Yongsheng, even if Taizu is resurrected, he will still be shocked when he hears these news.
And at the same time.
Northwest territory.
In Prince Ning's Mansion.
When a piece of urgent information appeared in front of King Ning.
In the study room.
Under the candlelight.
Reflecting his ferocious face, which is not particularly old, at this moment, there is a ferocious smile, and his eyes are filled with smiles from the bottom of his heart.
He had waited for so many years, and now he finally had this opportunity.
"The time has come!"
"The time has really come."
In the study, Prince Ning kept breathing and breathing. He wanted to calm himself down in this way.
He is usually very calm, no matter what happens, he will always be calm.
But it's hard for him to stay calm now.
First, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity presented itself, and my long-cherished dream might come true.
The second is the fear that comes from his heart. This natural disaster is more or less related to him. He doesn't know how many people will die by then, but he has a rough idea.
It's just that the excitement is greater than this small amount of guilt.
So many natural disasters occurred in the Great Xia Dynasty, which was a disaster for Emperor Yongsheng.
At the beginning, Emperor Yongsheng revolted on the grounds that the Qing emperor was sidelined.
But today, he can use his improper position to start an uprising.
Using natural disasters as an excuse to criticize Emperor Yongsheng, when the people's resentment reached a certain level, he could take advantage of the situation, gather people's hearts, seize the throne, and change the dynasty.
"Your Majesty."
"The time has come. Shall we prepare in advance and send troops immediately?"
At this moment, in the study room, Hou Jun's voice was extremely excited. As the counselor of Prince Ning, he was now blessed with a good match.
If, with this opportunity, King Ning succeeds in his rebellion and becomes the emperor, then as a counselor, he will at least be granted a title in the future. Even if he can make a huge contribution during the rebellion, it is not an exaggeration to be granted a title.
.
So he was even more excited and looking forward to it, hoping that King Ning would send troops now.
"No."
Prince Ning shook his head, holding back the excitement in his heart.
"We cannot send troops now."
"Immediately send troops to provide aid of five hundred thousand shi of food to various places. But remember, wait until the food from the imperial court has been shipped, and then take out the king's food. I want to win the hearts of the people."
"Moreover, we must wait for the imperial court's assistance before sending troops."
King Ning said he was not in a hurry to send troops now.
When Hou Jun heard this, he was slightly confused at first, but then he quickly relaxed his brows and said.
"Understood."
"Your Majesty, what you want is for the court to provide disaster relief first, and then launch an uprising when the time is right."
"In this way, after the prince ascends the throne, he will go out to provide disaster relief and stabilize the situation in Daxia."
"This plan is really brilliant. Your Majesty is wise."
Hou Jun instantly understood what Prince Ning meant.
It is indeed too hasty to send troops now. A major disaster has just occurred. If we send troops, it will indeed arouse the resentment of the people. However, it would be better to wait for the court to rescue the disaster first and then take action when the rescue is almost complete.
This catastrophe was impossible for the imperial court to remedy, even if it had great means.
The current strategy can only be used to save as many as possible, and such behavior will definitely chill the hearts of the people. Sending troops at that time will have the best effect, and after taking over, it can also save a lot of trouble.
"kindness."
"If the imperial court cannot save the disaster, it will be more beneficial to me."
"If we can save part of it, it will also be beneficial to me. Sooner or later, the country will belong to me. If they provide disaster relief, they are also helping me to relieve the disaster."
Prince Ning nodded, that was indeed what he meant.
"Then do you want me to let people spread some rumors and confuse the people?"
Hou Jun continued to ask.
"No, Buddhism will take care of these things. Let's go and do three more things."
"As soon as you come, inform the people in the court not to hide your identity. When it's time to reveal your identity, you will reveal your identity. If you can't seize this opportunity, everything will end here. I have no time to waste. This is what I want to do."
The king’s last chance is also their last chance. If they are still hiding them, then wait for me to reveal their identities.”
"Secondly, inform King Qilin and some other vassal kings that I am willing to divide the land and rule it. If I ascend the throne, I only need to be a co-owner. For other things, they can do whatever they want. I promise them.
Conditions, but the premise is that you must support me with all your strength. If anyone dares to quit midway, I will be the first to kill him."
"Thirdly, let someone go to the Xiongnu Kingdom. It's almost ready to take action. Then tell the envoy of Dajin that I am willing to settle the goods with Dajin Longmi, agree to trade between the two dynasties, and am willing to promote the peaceful development of the two dynasties."
Prince Ning opened his mouth and gave instructions one by one.
He is not in a hurry now, he just wants to finish these things, so as not to miss the details.
"I obey my orders."
Hou Jun nodded.
"Go ahead."
King Ning waved his hand, and Hou Jun left the place immediately.
Wait until Mr. Hou leaves.
About a quarter of an hour.
A figure appeared in the study, a middle-aged scholar.
"I've met Prince Ning."
The middle-aged scholar appeared and bowed slightly to Prince Ning.
"You're welcome, sir."
"Thanks to sir for having such an opportunity this time."
Looking at the other party, Prince Ning showed a gentle smile on his face, without putting on the airs of a prince.
"You are so polite, Your Majesty. If Your Majesty hadn't escorted Emperor Jiande out, it would have been as difficult as climbing to the sky to cause such a natural disaster."
The latter smiled faintly and did not admit that he had caused the natural disaster.
"This king's Jiande nephew can be regarded as a miserable person."
"Please don't worry, Prince Ning."
"As long as Prince Ning acts in accordance with the agreement after he ascends the throne, Emperor Jiande will definitely not have any regrets."
"Also, as a talented person, Prince Ning should be careful. He knows too many things."
The latter said with a gentle expression.
"Don't worry, sir."
"He won't live long enough for me to ascend the throne. He is just a chess piece."
Prince Ning nodded, not caring.
"In that case, on behalf of Prince Mingyue, I would like to congratulate you in advance on your enthronement."
"The Central Continent Dynasty will definitely send generous gifts when the time comes."
The other party smiled lightly.
"Thank you."
Prince Ning also smiled.
"However, for some reason, I am still a little worried."
Prince Ning suppressed his smile slightly and expressed the little uneasiness in his heart.
"Oh? What is the prince worried about?"
The latter was also a little curious.
"Gu Jinnian."
Prince Ning revealed Gu Jinnian's name, which was what he was most worried about.
Hearing this, the middle-aged scholar couldn't help but smile.
"Your Majesty is really worried too much."
"This natural disaster was caused by the Buddhist sect, the Immortal sect, and the Central Continent Dynasty, using the Dragon Ball of National Fortune to do their best."
"Any natural disaster in Daxia will cause huge trouble, let alone so many natural disasters in one go."
"And the most terrible disaster, they haven't discovered it yet. By the time they discover it, it's already too late. Even if they discover it now, it's too late."
"Not to mention anything else, how can Gu Jinnian solve the severe drought in Jiangzhong County?"
"Even if millions of stones are transported, what will happen if tens of millions of stones of food are shipped?"
"The people are not short of food, but they are short of fields. What they are worried about is the future. There is no harvest. This is the real terror."
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Gu Jinnian is destined to be powerless this time."
"The eternal prosperity is destined to come to an end."
The latter spoke out with full confidence, without any fear or worry at all.
After hearing this, Prince Ning's worries completely dissipated like smoke.
But soon, he smiled.
"In this case, I would like to ask, sir, who does the Central Continent Dynasty set as a pawn in the court?"
"I know that Prince Mingyue is always extremely cautious when doing things, and always prepares two hands."
"I am curious, am I the first hand or the second hand?"
Prince Ning opened his mouth and mentioned this matter.
Upon hearing this, the latter shook his head and reminded him kindly.
"Your Majesty, Prince Mingyue's thoughts are not something you can guess."
"However, the prince is indeed prepared to use both hands, but the prince must be the first. The prince knows this well."
"And please rest assured, Your Majesty, if you ascend the throne, this second person will definitely not be able to see the rising sun of the new dynasty."
"On this point, I can make a great oath."
"Of course, I hope that the prince can keep his promise. After all, His Highness the Prince likes people with integrity the most."
The other party said very seriously.
Prince Ning was silent for a moment and finally nodded.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, sir, but please tell Prince Mingyue that I will abide by my promise."
Prince Ning spoke up.
The latter didn't say much and left slowly.
In the study room, Prince Ning seemed extremely quiet.
This struggle is far from the participation of one or two people, but the participation of a group of people.
Among the many forces in the Eastern Barren Territory, the Buddhist sect is the main force, and so are the immortal sects. Although many immortal sects now support the Great Xia Dynasty, they are just to gain their own interests.
Moreover, the Immortal Sect will not support Emperor Yongsheng, they will only support the Daxia Dynasty that can bring them benefits.
This disaster is destined to be a horrific natural disaster for Daxia.
And at the same time.
The most borderland place of Daxia.
The red land is endless.
Several figures appeared here. They were all wearing black robes. The leader slowly took off his clothes and hat. He had no hair, and there were traces of fire burning on his face. He had extremely ugly scars and looked extremely ugly.
ferocious.
But if you put aside these scars, you can see that he was very handsome when he was young, and he exuded an imperial aura.
He is the Jiande Emperor.
The last emperor of Daxia.
Looking towards the direction of Daxia Kyoto, Emperor Jiande's eyes were extremely calm, and his eyes were full of complexity.
And the people around him are all his attendants.
"Your Majesty, the traitor Yongsheng is strong and his strength has been exhausted. Do you want to rise up and regain the throne?"
The attendant's voice sounded, his emotions burning.
The four attendants, whose black robes are embroidered with patterns of the four divine beasts, are the strongest attendants of Emperor Jiande.
"Need not."
"Sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."
"Under great disasters, strange treasures will emerge. Taizu once said that there is a divine object hidden in Daxia. It will only emerge in the world when natural disasters turmoil the country."
"Find this thing and present it to the Emperor of Central Continent. In this way, this Great Xia will still be mine."
Emperor Jiande spoke calmly, but in his eyes, there was neither ambition nor fanaticism, but calmness.
Thirteen years of life on the run have brought him too many different insights.
"Your Majesty, after all, Daxia's divine objects are somewhat illusory. Prince Mingyue of the Central Continent Dynasty has contacted King Ning a long time ago. Now King Ning has strong soldiers and horses. I'm afraid if King Ning seizes the opportunity and competes with him for the throne again."
The attendant with the red bird pattern spoke, it was a woman wearing a veil and her appearance could not be seen clearly.
"Will not."
"He can't be emperor."
"He thought he was an important chess piece, but he didn't know that the real chess piece was neither him nor me."
"Only by obtaining divine objects can the world be settled."
Emperor Jiande's tone was very calm.
"Your Majesty is wise."
The four of them nodded and did not dare to speak any more.
However, Emperor Jiande's eyes looked extremely complicated, and he didn't know why.
And at this moment.
Daxia Kyoto.
Six parts were shocked.
Yang Mansion.
When he learned about the situation in Daxia, Yang Kai almost slumped in his chair.
"Jiangzhong County, Longxi County, Donglin County, Nanyue County, seventeen flints, is God going to destroy me, Daxia?"
Yang Kai couldn't help but tremble. He was really desperate. Although he was not the Minister of Household Affairs, he also knew what these counties meant.
If anything is revealed, it will be a huge disaster.
"Does Marquis Tianming know about this?"
After a while, Yang Kai asked aloud.
"Your Majesty has sent someone to inform Marquis Tianming. Sir, please enter the palace quickly. Your Majesty is furious now."
The other party asked Yang Kai to enter the palace quickly.
"good."
Yang Kai stopped talking and stood up and walked directly towards the palace.
Keep going.
When he was approaching the palace, Yang Kai saw the other ministers rushing towards him.
"Master Hu, Master He, Master Li."
Yang Kai stepped forward and shouted to the three of them.
"Master Yang."
The three ministers responded one after another, and each of them looked a little solemn.
"Master He, what should we do about this matter?"
Yang Kai spoke up and directly asked the Minister of Household Affairs what he said.
Hearing this, He Yan's face was filled with bitterness.
"What can I do? I can't think of anything. If you focus on one thing, I have another explanation. Five things piled together will give you a splitting headache."
He Yan was very bitter. He had no solution at all, or in other words, he had no time to think of a solution.
"well."
The ministers sighed, and Hu Yong's voice couldn't help but sound.
"Don't worry about it for now, let's go to the palace and talk about it later. We will see the Holy One and see what the Holy One means."
"Yeah."
Everyone said nothing and went straight to the palace.
And at the same time.
Inside Daxia Academy.
When the news reached Gu Jinnian's ears, Gu Jinnian's expression also changed.
"Four counties were affected, and seventeen flints fell?"
Gu Jinnian's expression changed.
He had anticipated the disaster in the Great Xia Dynasty, but he did not expect that it would suddenly become so terrifying and that they would gather together.
"Master Marquis, Your Majesty asked your servant to tell you that according to the wishes of Mr. Xu Taiyi, the Supervisor of Heaven, there is another disaster hidden that is better than these five things."
"However, Your Majesty has not communicated this matter to other adults, only telling you."
The messenger opened his mouth and informed Gu Jinnian of this difficult secret.
"besides?"
In the room, Gu Jinnian felt completely powerless.
This is too exaggerated.
Severe droughts, earthquakes, snowstorms, fires, and meteorite falls.
This is definitely not a coincidence, and it definitely cannot be a test of national destiny.
This is basically to destroy the country.
If any one of such a major disaster is not handled properly, the number of casualties may start at a million. How can the major vassal kings operate in a stable manner internally?
Especially for Prince Ning, Gu Jinnian didn't need to think too much that he would definitely start a rebellion.
trouble.
All the troubles piled up together.
"Tell your majesty that I will enter the palace half an hour later."
"Go and get all the maps of the disaster-stricken areas and the list of officials, quickly."
Gu Jinnian said that he did not plan to enter the palace now and wanted to understand the situation first.
Otherwise, going there will be in vain.
"yes."
The latter left immediately, and Gu Jinnian also went straight to the inside of the academy to find Su Wenjing.
"Sir, do you know about the Great Xia Disaster?"
Gu Jinnian couldn't care less about etiquette and opened the door directly to ask.
At this time, Su Wenjing was writing something. When he heard Gu Jinnian's voice, Su Wenjing put down the brush and nodded, with an unusually solemn look on his face.
"Already know."
"This matter is far more terrifying than I imagined."
"There is definitely something fishy behind this."
When Su Wenjing spoke up, he could tell at a glance that this matter definitely involved too many forces.
"Sir, is there any way to deal with this?"
Gu Jinnian asked aloud.
He no longer cares about who is behind the scenes. Disaster relief is the most important thing.
"It's very difficult to solve."
Su Wenjing took a deep breath, feeling deeply stressed.
"Let's take a look at the situation in various places first."
"Let's think of a solution."
"Jinnian, come here and take a look."
Su Wenjing spoke up and suddenly wanted to think of a solution. This was impossible. We must first understand what situations these disasters will cause, and then prescribe the right medicine.
At this moment, Gu Jinnian stepped forward and looked at the rice paper on the desk.
There are a lot of things written densely on the rice paper.
And Su Wenjing's voice also sounded.
"The severe drought in Jiangzhong County seems to be the least serious disaster, but in fact it is the biggest trouble."
"There are no waterways in Jiangzhong County, and there are many mountain roads. The place is bitterly cold. The only income for the people is grain harvest. During this severe drought, people still have food in their homes, but all their efforts in the first half of the year have been in vain."
"At that time, the people will inevitably be resentful. This involves the interests of the people. Someone will definitely take this opportunity to win over the people of Jiangzhong County and take this opportunity to raise troops to rebel!"
"Therefore, Jiangzhong County has a top priority. If this matter is not resolved, the hidden dangers will be huge."
Su Wenjing spoke up. He believed that Jiangzhong County was the most terrifying of all disasters.
There is no other reason, earthquakes, snowstorms, fires, these things are natural disasters in the final analysis. You can criticize the court for doing something wrong, but it is impossible to overthrow the dynastic rule by using such things.
Furthermore, the Daxia Dynasty will definitely send troops to rescue as soon as possible, which can reduce some of the impact.
As long as the final result is not too tragic, then it is acceptable.
Right now, what we fear most is not just natural disasters, but also man-made disasters and civil strife and rebellion.
If there is a disaster, provide disaster relief.
Make every effort to provide disaster relief and rescue the people.
But the hidden danger in Jiangzhong County is the most terrifying. The people have no harvest. Firstly, whether they can replant before the stored grain is used up is a problem. Secondly, there is a problem of income. No income means that the coming year will be very difficult.
.
It is a good thing for the people to have some surplus food. Most of the people eat it this year and wait for next year.
Once a food disaster occurs, it will easily lead to civil unrest.
Food is the most important thing for the people.
As long as you have a mouthful of food, you don't dare to mess around. When you don't have enough to eat, it's because the princes, generals and ministers are proud of themselves.
This is the biggest hidden danger.
"In normal times, food can be transported for disaster relief, but now that disasters are happening in various places, it may not be possible to stabilize the disaster situation in Jiangzhong County."
"And since it involves food storage, I'm afraid there will be even bigger troubles in Daxia."
Su Wenjing's analysis is clear and logical.
His face was serious.
Governments in various places will store grain. This is a rule established by Taizu. But the question is. How many places still have grain stocks?
When the tide goes out, you will know who is in the shallow water.
"Food disaster."
Gu Jinnian was thoughtful, and after a moment, he spoke slowly.
"Actually, students may have a solution."
Gu Jinnian was silent for a moment.
He didn't have much confidence in saying this, because he immediately thought of the real dragon Daosui.
This plant is easy to grow and drought-resistant, and does not require much water to grow food crops.
If the people of Jiangzhong County are worried about a poor harvest, Gu Jinnian really has a solution.
Calculating the time, we are now entering mid-March. If we plant Zhenlong rice ears, it will be three crops of rice. Taking into account the severe drought, will two crops of rice be enough?
The food grown in four months can perfectly solve this disaster. At worst, the court will allocate funds for these four months to make the people feel at ease.
But when Gu Jinnian said this, Su Wenjing's expression suddenly changed.
"Can you solve it?"
"Is there any solution?"
Su Wenjing really couldn't hold it any longer this time.
There is no other reason for this. Once such a huge natural disaster and food disaster breaks out in Jiangzhong County, it will be extremely terrifying, and allocating funds for disaster relief will be useless.
Under such circumstances, Gu Jinnian actually said he could solve it?
"Well, it's hard to express it clearly, but since the students have spoken, they have a certain degree of confidence."
Gu Jinnian spoke up. He didn't know how to introduce Zhenlong Daosui. Anyway, that's what he meant.
"How much?"
Su Wenjing asked.
"About seventy percent."
Gu Jinnian said with a serious expression. He originally wanted to say 90%, but whether it would work or not is another matter, so he changed it to 70%.
"hiss!"
This time Su Wenjing couldn't sit still at all. His eyes were full of astonishment, and he looked at Gu Jinnian as if he were looking at a monster.
"Jin Nian."
"If the disaster situation in Jiangzhong County can be stabilized this time, it will be a sure thing, and we can also take this opportunity to eradicate all the young people. Are you not lying to me?"
Su Wenjing was completely shocked.
Among these disasters, what he fears most is not earthquakes, snow disasters, volcanoes, or skyrockets. What he fears most is food disasters.
Because if you really say something that deserves death, the flint will fall, causing countless casualties. People are already dead, but there is no need for food. There is just a severe drought in Jiangzhong County, and tens of millions of people are crying for food. This is the most terrifying thing.
The dead are not to be feared, but the refugees are to be feared.
But if Gu Jinnian can solve the disaster in Jiangzhong County, it will be like a single decision.
You can even take this opportunity to catch some people in one go.
"Is it enough to just stop the disaster in Jiangzhong County?"
Gu Jinnian was a little surprised.
"It's basically a sure thing."
"If there's an earthquake in Longxi County, half a million troops can decide the disaster situation."
"The fire in Donglin County is indeed a bit tricky, but you can ask the Immortal Sect to ask for a rain talisman. If the Immortal Sect can help, this matter can be solved. Just send an additional 200,000 soldiers."
"With heavy snowfall in Nanyue County, an army of 300,000 can stabilize the situation."
"As for these seventeen flints, I will lead the Confucian and Taoist scholars to deal with them."
"The only trouble is Jiangzhong County. I have thought about it for a long time, but I can't think of a solution. This matter is bound to cause big trouble and give some people the opportunity to rebel."
"As long as there is no internal chaos in Daxia, everything will be a waste of time, money, and people."
"And if we survive this disaster, the national destiny of Daxia will definitely improve."
"Just decide the disaster!"
"Jinnian, if you are really sure, the fate of the Great Xia Dynasty will be in your hands."
Su Wenjing spoke up.
"Students understand."
Gu Jinnian nodded, and the stone in his heart dropped a little.
"However, we really can't think about the good things. We still have to go to the local area to see the situation. Many things are not what we can predict."
"This disaster is man-made. Some people want to cause chaos in the Great Xia Dynasty. Prince Ning is the most suspect."
"But these are not terrible."
"What is really scary is that the situation has developed step by step into an uncontrollable situation, which is beyond everyone's expectations. If that happens, Daxia may really die."
Su Wenjing sighed.
He was completely sure that Prince Ning was involved in this matter, but Prince Ning's idea was that there would be internal chaos, and he would take this opportunity to raise an army to rebel.
There is nothing wrong with this idea.
A question of stance.
But be afraid, the disaster will expand step by step and become more and more uncontrollable. Even if Emperor Yongsheng is gone by then, so what?
Can Prince Ning become emperor naturally?
Or what if King Ning becomes emperor? As soon as he came to power, the disasters became more and more terrible, and the people were in dire straits. At this time, the Xiongnu Kingdom, the Fuluo Dynasty, and the Jin Dynasty took advantage of the situation to plunder the country.
The Xiongnu Kingdom demands seventy-two cities on the border. Will you give them to them?
Don’t give it? If you don’t give it, the troops will come in and beat you.
Give?
Well, the Xiongnu Kingdom gave you seventy-two cities, so the Fuluo Dynasty asking for your three counties is not too much, right?
Not giving?
If you don't give it, I'll hit you.
What? There is no reason? Just arrest a few Daxia people and falsely accuse them of being soldiers to steal the iron mines of the Fulo Dynasty. This is a serious violation of the interests of the Fulo Dynasty. The Fulo Dynasty must send troops.
Or compensation, the compensation clause is more exaggerated, do you agree or not?
If you agree.
What about the Jin Dynasty?
Okay! If you take ten thousand steps back and give up half of the country, there will still be a Central Continent dynasty.
They don't want your land, and they may even come forward to help you resolve the grudge and solve the disaster.
Why?
Because they want you to surrender to the Great Xia Dynasty, pay tribute to the Central Continent Dynasty in the future, and at the same time allow Central Continent soldiers to settle in the Great Xia Dynasty.
In this case, will you agree or not?
All of these things can happen, and the probability of happening is very high.
But there is another possibility, and that is the Fuluo Dynasty, the Dajin Dynasty, and the Zhongzhou Dynasty. They do nothing and don't care about anything.
Why? Because the Great Xia Dynasty was completely in chaos, with refugees and chaos everywhere.
The fertile fields are trampled, and the country is destroyed.
At this time, no one dared to touch the Great Xia Dynasty, and whoever touched it would die.
We can only watch the fire from the other side, wait until there are countless casualties, Daxia gradually settles down, and then slowly encroach.
These are all things that may happen in the future.
Listening to what Su Wenjing said, Gu Jinnian also realized how terrifying this matter was.
"Sir, the student will go to the palace first to discuss with His Majesty."
Gu Jinnian spoke. Now that he understood what was going on, he planned to enter the palace to see the saint.
"good."
"Go ahead."
"Jinnian, this time, we must do our best. No matter what happens, we must put the overall situation first, the country first, and the people first. Do you understand?"
Su Wenjing said seriously.
He knew that Gu Jinnian had an impulsive personality, which was a good thing, but sometimes it was not a good thing.
Now he had to remind Gu Jinnian of this.
No matter what happens, you must put the overall situation first, and even if you are angry, you must bear it.
After things have settled down and this chaos has been resolved, it won't be too late to settle the accounts slowly.
Because of this summer disaster, many people will have different ideas.
The Buddhist sect, the Immortal sect, the vassal kings, and all the major forces are all adding insult to injury.
Everyone's position is different.
There is no obligation to choose to help.
"Students understand."
Gu Jinnian nodded heavily.
"besides."
"Daxia is in urgent need of a central figure."
"Once word of the disaster spreads, it will inevitably cause panic among the people of Daxia."
"Daxia needs someone to stand up and stabilize the people's morale and the military's morale."
"Let go of everything and do what you have to do."
"Even if the final result is not satisfactory, you still tried your best."
Su Wenjing spoke out last.
This sentence made Gu Jinnian slightly stunned.
He understood what Su Wenjing meant.
"Thank you sir."
Gu Jinnian took a deep breath, then turned around and left.
He hurried towards the Daxia Palace.
And at this moment.
Bactrian Palace.
In the main hall.
It was already very noisy.
Quarrel among the six tribes, including civil and military quarrels.
Everyone has their own ideas.
Some people believe that disaster relief should be prioritized, with Longxi County and Donglin County being dealt with first. Jiangzhong County is only suffering from a severe drought and has not yet reached the point of breaking out.
Some people also believe that the disaster in Jiangzhong County will lead to a big mistake.
Some people even pointed out that what they are most worried about now is not the disaster, but the panic of the people.
Seventeen flint stones.
Who knows where it will fall?
Who can guarantee that the disasters in various places will be reflected on them?
At that time, as long as someone spreads rumors to cause trouble, even just saying that a disaster is coming, all the people will go crazy to buy food.
One can imagine what the consequences will be?
But none of what the officials said was wrong, and this is the most terrifying thing.
Don’t be afraid that everyone has their own ideas, just be afraid that everyone’s ideas are right.
This means that there are too many problems.
In the main hall, the prince, the king of Qin, the king of Wei, and the king of Jin were all present.
Some princes and princes also came one after another.
Emperor Yongsheng remained silent.
Not a word was said.
Until a few moments later.
The quarrels in the main hall gradually died down.
Because no one was wrong, no one could think of an emergency solution.
All worries are things that may happen in the future.
At this juncture, I am not afraid of you being right, but I am afraid of being wrong.
There is no way to start this catastrophe, but if you make a mistake, someone will inevitably be responsible for the consequences.
So as we talked, everyone became quiet.
The civil and military affairs of the Manchu dynasty.
No one dared to speak out.
Quiet.
The silence in the main hall made the feeling of powerlessness even more apparent.
It also made Emperor Yongsheng feel even more solemn.
However.
At this moment.
A voice came from outside the main hall.
Sounded clear.
"minister."
"Gu Jinnian."
"Willing to contribute to national policy."
"Resolving the Crisis of Great Xia."
As the sound rang out.
In the main hall, countless people looked shocked.
On the dragon chair.
After Emperor Yongsheng heard this again, for some reason, his heavy heart instantly relaxed a lot.
