The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Yan Chengjin walked up to Wu Kuan, and Wu Kuan looked at him seriously, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight and was actually a little scared.

"Why do you feel guilty, sir?"

Wu Kuan said angrily: "Why did you come to see me so early in the morning?!"

"I would like to ask, is there any warning about the collapse of the earth?"

The officials in front of the Meridian Gate should be the censors of the Thirteen Dao.

Their official rank is only six or seven, and they cannot enter the palace.

But the report will definitely be sent back to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Wu Kuan picked up the tea cup and took a sip to calm down his shock: "The notes are on the desk, take them."

Yan Chengjin took it back, sat down and opened it, only to see that the ground in Shandong collapsed again.

Parts of Shandong are located in the Taiping earthquake zone, so there are often landslides. There was an extremely serious landslide in both the Chenghua and Hongzhi dynasties.

This should be the time for the Hongzhi Dynasty.

"It seems that we need to send a servant to keep an eye on the seismograph in the house."

Yan Chengjin continued to watch the rapid performance, and more than two hundred people were crushed to death, including countless livestock.

He suddenly began to think deeply.

Chengxian Street, Zhao Mansion.

Xu Yuan's face was ashen, and he said to Zhao Yong: "I have not seen your majesty. I am ashamed of the people of the three places. I don't know how many people have died in the past few days."

"Brother Xu, why not go to Mr. Li directly?" Zhao Yong said.

Xu Yuan had long heard of Li Dongyang's reputation and knew that among the three bachelors in the cabinet, he was the best at planning.

Then he followed Zhao Yong and came to wait in front of Li Dongyang's mansion.

It was not until a quarter of an hour that I saw a sedan slowly walking toward the gate of the mansion.

Xu Yuan hurriedly bowed: "Xu Yuan, the censor of Shandong Province, is here to plead for orders on behalf of hundreds of thousands of people in the three places. I sincerely ask Mr. Li to get off his sedan chair and see you."

Li Dongyang walked out of the sedan.

No matter whether ordinary people are petitioning or officials are petitioning, they cannot go beyond the level.

This person was affiliated with the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but he came directly to the cabinet. Although he was unhappy, he still asked:

"The relief grain has been escorted to Shandong. What do you want to do when you see me?"

Xu Yuan's heart sank and he said straightforwardly: "I want money and medicinal materials! The ground collapsed and even the government office collapsed, and we encountered bandits again.

The imperial court did not allocate food for reconstruction and did not heal the people, for fear that... the Ming Dynasty would add another place where people died of hunger. "

Li Dongyang's face became increasingly ugly.

Although it makes sense, the government has its own principles, and it is precisely because of its principles that it can run in an orderly manner.

"You should go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate. What's the crime of jumping over the top?"

"I have submitted a memorial to Mr. Wu, but Mr. Wu rejected it. I thought of the people in the mountains, so I had no choice but to..."

Xu Yuan suddenly felt sad in his heart when he thought of the scene of the mountains and rivers being torn apart and devastated.

Li Dongyang sighed.

The next day,

Li Dongyang came to the Huagai Hall and said to the gatekeeper: "Is Your Majesty in there?"

"Replying to Master Li, I'm here. I just came back from my morning exercise. Please let me inform Master Li." The little eunuch is very good at organizing things.

In an instant, Li Dongyang strode into the palace: "Your Majesty, Xu Yuan, the censor of Shandong Province, has entered the capital."

Emperor Hongzhi became serious: "Who told him to come to Beijing?! In such a big disaster, as an inspector, I should guard Shandong on behalf of the imperial court!"

It is a serious crime for an official to leave his/her jurisdiction without being summoned.

"Yesterday he came to see me and wanted to beg for money and food."

Li Dongyang repeated Xu Yuan's words to Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath, but he didn't expect that it was even more serious than Shu Zuozhong.

He believed Xu Yuan's words. During the previous dynasty, the landslide in Shandong even shattered a piece of Mount Tai.

"Li Qing's family also thinks they should give it?"

"yes!"

If not, Li Dongyang would not come to see the saint.

Not long after, Shi Qin, the envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital, came to the main hall. He stood aside timidly, not daring to raise his head.

Emperor Hongzhi's expression remained as usual: "Inform me of my will and dispatch two carts of medicinal materials to the disaster-stricken areas in Shandong."

Shi Qin raised his head slightly and hesitated: "Your Majesty, the raw materials warehouse of Huimin Pharmacy is empty!"

He was about to sue Yan Chengjin of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

It's a pity that I can't write bullets and dare not provoke the censor easily.

Now that His Majesty asked, he took this opportunity to tell Yan Chengjin.

"Huimin Pharmacy is empty?" Emperor Hongzhi opened his mouth in surprise.

Huimin Pharmacy in Beijing is the largest pharmacy in the country, responsible for improving prescriptions and pharmaceuticals.

It was like a treasury that was full suddenly became empty.

"When was it free?! It's really unreasonable. How dare you covet the people's life-saving medicinal materials!"

With such a large medicinal material warehouse, even the royal pharmacy in the palace cannot match the reserve of the raw material warehouse.

It was just such a medicine warehouse that was emptied.

"Your Majesty, you gave Yan Chengjin a decree a few days ago. He sent five thousand refugees to clear out the medicinal materials from the raw materials warehouse."

Emperor Hongzhi then remembered that he had given Yan Chengjin a brief memorial.

"Aren't there only five thousand refugees?"

Shi Qin stamped his feet, gritted his teeth and said, "There are only five thousand refugees, but they waited in line to receive them for three days."

this…

Emperor Hongzhi and Li Dongyang looked at each other and were speechless for a long time.

What Your Majesty hates the most is those who pretend to be public servants for their own benefit.

Li Dongyang couldn't help but feel slightly worried.

Yan Chengjin came to the Huagai Hall without knowing why. After bowing, he stood aside and waited to speak.

The official wearing the royal doctor's scarlet robe said coldly: "Sir Yan, seven days ago, you had people evacuate Huimin Pharmacy, and you didn't pay a penny back!"

It turned out to be this.

This person was Shi Qin, the envoy of Taiyuan Hospital, one of the imperial doctors who killed the late emperor. Even Liu Wentai's medical skills were not as good as those of Liu Wentai.

But he was good at rhetoric and evasion. During the Hongzhi Dynasty, he became Zuo Tongzheng envoy.

There is no real power in a temporary position, only a salary.

Information about this person flashed through Yan Chengjin's mind silently, and he said calmly: "It is His Majesty's will to heal the refugees."

"When did I order you to evacuate?"

Emperor Hongzhi said with a straight face, he wanted to see how you would defend yourself.

His Majesty is usually at his angriest when he is silent.

Li Dongyang coughed dryly and said: "There is a big disaster in Shandong and we need medicinal materials. Please order people to return these medicinal materials."

There was silence in the hall.

Yan Chengjin thought for a long time before saying: "Reporting to Your Majesty, all the medicinal materials have been used up."

"How is that possible? There are so many medicinal materials, how could you..."

Shi Qin pointed at Yan Chengjin and thought of a possibility. You shouldn't have sold all the medicinal materials.

Before Emperor Hongzhi could get angry, Yan Chengjin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, even if the medicinal materials are sent to Shandong, we can't save people.

Before seeing a doctor, you must first consult a doctor, and then you can get medicine. The medicinal materials need to be boiled and taken. Sending only baggage to Shandong will undoubtedly be a waste of natural resources. "

Emperor Hongzhi did not speak. Li Dongyang nodded slightly, but what he said made some sense.

"I remember that Liangxiang has a prescription for curing King Yong?"

"What your Excellency said is true, but there are hundreds of thousands of people in the three places. Even if there are typhoid spirits, it is not enough to save the people in the three places." Yan Chengjin said: "It's still not enough..."

Emperor Hongzhi was moved with compassion: "What else is missing?"

"All the medicinal materials from Huimin Pharmacy in Beizhili." Yan Chengjin saw that His Majesty's expression softened: "If Liangxiang prepares the prescriptions and Huimin Pharmacy prepares the medicinal materials, the urgent needs of the people in the three places can be solved."

Li Dongyang put it bluntly: "Do you want a doctor from Liangxiang to be in charge of Huimin Pharmacy?"

Shi Qin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, no!"

"Your Majesty, I have a copy of the bullet, please trouble Eunuch Xiao."

Yan Chengjin held up a booklet with both hands.

This is to impeach Shi Qin.

When investigating Huimin Pharmacy’s raw material library, some tricks were discovered.
