Yao Chong received a request for help from the yamen of Zheng County. After reading it, his ears buzzed.
It was already winter. They were hoping for snow to cover the winter wheat. Then there were the many greenhouses in the capital.
When the weather got colder, the ice on the river would thicken. They would organize people to dig the ice to earn extra income.
Of course, there would be more ice sculptures and ice lanterns this year.
This was already a routine. Helping the people earn money was left behind by Li Yi.
Why was it raining? If it was raining, then so be it. The sky wasn't clear yet, and the rain was slightly lighter.
Fortunately, it wasn't a court assembly. Otherwise, everyone would have to hold umbrellas outside.
Yao Chong was worried. He briefly explained the situation to Zhang Shuo and Lu Huaishen, who had rushed over after him, and then went to court.
Li Longji was in good spirits. Clearly, he wasn't tired last night.
When the morning court started, before anyone else could speak, Yao Chong stood up.
"Your Majesty, the county magistrate of Zheng County in Huazhou sent a request for help. He said that the mountains and rivers converged. Zheng County has a lot of rain, and the people's houses have been washed away.
So far, we don't know how many people have been affected. He has already asked for help from the government of Huazhou. He also felt that Chang 'an is close to Chang' an, so he ordered people to go to Chang 'an overnight to ask for help. "
Yao Chong looked worried. He didn't want any place to be affected.
Li Longji took the letter from the county magistrate of Zheng County, looked at it, and asked the officials, "Do you have any plans?"
"Your Majesty, you can order the government of Huazhou to send people to help. You can order the county magistrate of Zheng County to settle the victims safely," someone stood up and said.
"Your Majesty, Chang 'an should mobilize resources. At the same time, let the Ministry of Revenue issue a document to open up Huazhou's Changping Warehouse for relief," someone else said.
"Your Majesty …"
"Report, Weinan County Magistrate Hu Shiwei. It's raining heavily in Weinan. The county magistrate and his officials can't sleep at night.
They stopped people from helping overnight. So far, no one has died from the flood. "
Huang Men ran in from outside. He could not find Yao Chong, so he could only go directly to Her Majesty.
"Your Majesty, the county magistrate of Weinan County, Hu Shiwei, should be credited for organizing a rescue team at this critical moment."
Some officials who were related to Hu Shiwei saw the opportunity and quickly spoke up.
"Reporting! Jinzi Guanglu Doctor Li Yi accused Weinan County Magistrate Hu Shiwei of neglecting his duties and not worrying about the people. The county is flooded with water, the people have destroyed their houses and collapsed buildings, the county magistrate sleeps soundly, the people are worried about the cold weather … "
Another small yellow door ran in to report.
The officials in the imperial court were dumbfounded. Why is Li Yi impeaching someone? Wasn't he very honest?
The person who had just spoken up for County Magistrate Hu Shiwei was drooling with his mouth wide open.
"Your Majesty, how did Li Yi know about Weinan County? He must be … "Another person who had a good relationship with Hu Shiwei said.
"Reporting ~ Jinziguang Lu Daifu Li Yi's report: Your Majesty, Huazhou's Zheng County is safe. Your subject is in Zheng County to rescue people. Houses collapsed and people died. Your subject has already dealt with it.
Twenty-nine people drowned. Twenty-eight people were saved. The last one is still unconscious. His heartbeat is normal and he is breathing on his own. His brain injury is unknown.
Fractures, scratches, and other minor injuries have been treated. His life is not in danger.
Tents were set up on high ground in the county. When Your Majesty received the urgent report, the people in the county should be eating breakfast.
The Winged Knights that Your Majesty sent should be the first to rush to Weinan County. When they heard that Huazhou's Zheng County was urgent, they rushed there.
It took them less than eight hours to travel a hundred miles on foot. At dawn, they slept in their clothes and ate some compressed biscuits. "
A third small yellow door ran in and read the report.
This was completely different from the style of the impeachment of Weinan County Magistrate Hu Shiwei.
The impeachment used flowery words, but when it was done, it was all plain words.
Li Longji looked at the official who hadn't finished speaking.
The official raised his sleeve to cover his face and stepped back. His left foot tripped his right foot and he fell to the ground.
At this moment, everyone understood that Li Yi actually brought the Winged Knights to the rescue last night.
Li Yi went out personally, and the Winged Knights ran more than a hundred miles.
What else was there to say? Hu Shiwei was finished.
It was Li Yi's first time impeaching an official. He was always good with all the officials.
He even gave things to the soldiers guarding the city gates, including the bailiffs. Who hadn't received benefits from him?
Those who could make him angry and impeach were guilty even if they weren't guilty. How angry must he be?
"I request that Weinan County Magistrate Hu Shiwei be thoroughly investigated." Lu Huaishen took a big step forward and assisted.
"Your Majesty, please summon Hu Shiwei to Chang 'an," Zhang Shuo added.
"The matters of the common people must be investigated, must be investigated." Yao Chong directly decided, using the word 'investigate'.
He always wanted to find trouble with Li Yi, but that was a special case. He was used to it.
He also knew Li Yi's personality. Even if there was a little bit of understanding, Li Yi wouldn't impeach him.
Li Yi didn't even know Hu Shiwei. Why would he need to find trouble with a Ji County Magistrate?
Since Li Yi was unhappy, Hu Shiwei guaranteed that there was a problem.
Yao Chong wasn't in the mood to deal with Li Yi at this time. He had to deal with official business. He would deal with it when it wasn't official business in the future.
The three prime ministers all spoke the same. Even if the others had received benefits from Hu Shiwei, they didn't dare to say anything.
"Your Majesty, is it because Jinzi Guanglu Physician Li Yi is there and the two counties are fine?"
Wei Zhigu spoke up. He emphasized the words' Jinzi Guanglu Physician '.
Li Longji looked at Yao Chong.
Yao Chong gritted his teeth. "I request that Jinzi Guanglu Physician Li Yi be promoted to Guanglu Physician."
"I second that." Bi Goo expressed his support. Even if he felt that he had been cheated over the matter of the noodles, he still had to speak up for Li Yi.
Thus, a group of people who understood the situation agreed with the motion.
They understood. Last night, Li Yi was able to bring the Winged Knights out. The Winged Knights were Her Majesty's private army.
Li Yi was able to make those proud soldiers listen to him. It was obvious that he could command them.
He helped two counties in a row, especially Huazhou's Zheng County. They had asked for help, and Li Yi had actually taken care of it.
What did it mean to travel a hundred li in less than a night?
Rescuing civilians could be done so quickly. Sending troops to war was also the same.
The Winged Knights were able to travel at this speed even when they weren't on horseback.
If they were on horseback and the weather was better, wouldn't they be able to travel all over the capital office in one night?
With 30,000 Winged Knights gathered together, how many soldiers could defeat them?
Her Majesty was showing off her might.
As expected, Li Longji had a smile on his face. He couldn't help it!
Look at my soldiers, this is all they have.
If they weren't as good as horses, who else could they be? Who wouldn't be convinced? They weren't allowed to whisper behind their backs. If they had any thoughts, they had to say it out loud.
"Let's talk about other things." Li Longji was in a good mood. He looked at the officials and spoke.
Otherwise, Gao Lishi should be the one to say this: "Everything can be reported."
Several people from the Censorate shrank back and didn't say anything. Previously, they wanted to impeach Li Yi.
They didn't want to impeach Li Yi. They just wanted to make their presence known. Impeaching Li Yi for not reporting the livestock in the manor was a simple matter.
They didn't dare to impeach Li Yi for issuing currency coupons, even though they knew that this was a big matter.
If they wanted to seek death, it was easy. Why did they have to find it on Li Yi?
The Li Family Zhuangzi had a lot of livestock. The government didn't have an account book. If they impeached him, it would show that they, the Censorate, were qualified.
They couldn't do it now. Li Yi wanted to be promoted. They could think about it later. In any case, they could impeach him for not knowing the number of livestock.
