Another World Da Ming: I use a hundred lives to become holy
Chapter 499 Why the Important Task
The disaster in Qin and Shaanxi was quickly dealt with by Zhao Zheng because of his foreknowledge and the fact that the kings had taken away a lot of prosperity with them when they moved west. Even the relevant disaster relief grain and money from the court had not arrived yet.
Therefore, there would naturally be no delay in the emperor's edict.
Coincidentally, he was in the southernmost part of Qin and Shaanxi...
But he didn't expect that Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang would be so anxious that he would ask him to travel overnight.
This is just boasting in front of your sister without considering the life and death of others at all.
"General, the Qinshan patrol has arrived."
Therefore, when Erhu heard the report from his subordinates, he looked surprised.
In order to get Zhao Zheng's cooperation, he specially sent his trusted men and even sent troops to other directions to notify other Zhao residences in the north to patrol.
They were afraid that the Qin-Shaan inspection team would disobey orders because they were worried about the disaster situation, thus causing losses to their team.
But who would have thought that we would have arrived before the next night even though we had set out yesterday afternoon.
It just so happened that the people were at the southernmost tip of Qin and Shaanxi, and it just so happened that they avoided most of the disaster in advance because of a thought, and it just so happened that they knew that the court would respond in time and directly mortgaged the official warehouse.
These bold operations...seem normal when carried out by officials in the Zhao residence.
If it were any other official, after the court issued relief grain, when they didn't know the amount, would they dare to make the decision to open the local government warehouse first?
Da Wangbian followed the Zhao family on patrol. Unlike others, he did not become a treasure in the ancestral treasure house, but a model worker. He didn't know who to go to for justice.
"Go and inform His Majesty and ask if he wants to see you."
"This general must go and greet them personally!"
"Yes!"
The Zhao Mansion patrol is different from other patrols. Not to mention that he holds the whip, the Zhao Mansion is behind him. It doesn’t matter what Old Zhu thinks. On the surface, the etiquette must be in place.
It was impossible to ask Lao Zhu to go and greet them, so Erhu had been acting as the guest receptionist for a long time.
"What's going on..."
Erhu was also a little tired, and only started to take action after seeing that his men had left the scene.
As a close associate of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, he estimated that the Emperor would definitely want to meet the Qin-Shaan Inspector, but neither side played by the rules, so the time difference in reaction had to be allowed.
"Master Zhao! It's been a long time since we last met. I'm so tired from the journey!"
"General Hu, it is true that I have not seen you for many years. This is a special decree from the Emperor, so it is not hard at all."
Zhao Zheng had seen enough of Erhu from different perspectives, but after all, they were half comrades, so he couldn't cause trouble for the other's work.
As for why Erhu, who was always decisive and swift, now seemed to be taking him for a walk, he naturally understood the reason.
Until Yuer appeared.
"Master Zhao, His Majesty and His Majesty are in the main hall."
"Thank you, Miss Yu'er. Let's walk slower. We are exhausted from the journey. We cannot be so slovenly when we go to see the Empress."
Zhao Zheng nodded, but his words puzzled the two men, but they soon came to their senses and looked at him with gratitude.
As for why no other nobles were mentioned, everyone can understand.
The emperor and the Zhao family are truly the strangest opposites in the world.
......
"Your humble servant, I pay my respects to the Queen! Your Majesty!"
"Master Zhao, please stand up quickly."
Empress Ma and Zhao Zheng smiled at each other, completely ignoring the gloomy face of Old Zhu standing beside them.
This kind of atmosphere finally made everyone present feel a long-lost sense of relaxation.
The officials of the Zhao Mansion arrived, especially the eunuchs, who finally no longer had to worry about everything and looked at him with gratitude.
"Lord Zhao, luckily we have you in Qin and Shan, which makes things much easier for us. After we return to the capital, the Crown Prince will be very grateful to you."
As expected, the next second, Lao Zhu put a big hat on him.
"These are all my duties. I eat the people's salary and bear the people's burden."
The big hat was naturally very kind and not picky, so Zhao Zheng politely returned the gift.
Old Zhu wanted to say something and regain his status as emperor, but unfortunately he had the biggest backer of the entire Sun and Moon Dynasty right next to him.
Just a glance and Lao Zhu immediately felt thirsty and started drinking tea.
Originally, Lao Zhu had no plan to let the two sides meet. His ideal situation was to set off directly and let Zhao Zheng's Qin and Shan vests and the other four vests just follow.
Unfortunately, I was too thirsty today and couldn’t even hold my tea.
"It's my fault for returning to the capital this time on a whim, causing Lord Zhao a lot of trouble."
"I didn't ask for Mr. Zhao's opinion beforehand, Mr. Zhao..."
"I dare not. It is my honor to be remembered by your majesty."
tick~
Suddenly there was a faint sound.
"Girl! The tea is spilling."
Old Zhu didn't suspect anything, he was just happy that he could finally get a word in.
Yes, an inspector of the Zhao Mansion can actually enjoy the same treatment as himself, and let his sister pour tea for him, even if it spills!
"I'm old and useless."
"Master Zhao, please don't despise me."
Queen Ma was stunned for a moment, and Zhao Zheng quickly stepped forward to take it.
"My lady, don't say it's too late, the sky is still full of rosy clouds."
"Master Zhao is good at talking."
After hearing this, Queen Ma finally smiled again.
Old Zhu at the side finally got the conversation started, but he never expected that the two people in front of him seemed to be having an encrypted conversation, which made him a little confused.
But since it can't be done smoothly, forcing it is his style.
"Today, I have summoned you to come back to the capital with me. I also want to ask you something in person."
The topic could not be changed more abruptly, and it could only come from the mouth of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.
"I will tell you everything I know!"
Zhao Zheng's expression remained unchanged and he was still smiling, as if he was not facing Zhu Yuanzhang.
"I want to ask you about this matter, and I think it is something that both the civil and military officials in the capital want to know. If you can spread it to the world, it will be a great achievement for you, my dear!"
"The earthquake in Qin and Shan, did you know about it in advance?"
Old Zhu seemed to be consulting about this matter, but from the unusual desire and unconcealed fear in his eyes and face, one could still tell his true thoughts.
"Your Majesty, the earthquake is a natural disaster. How could this humble servant know about it in advance?"
It turned out that he was thinking about this. Zhao Zheng was helpless, but at the same time, he started to think about it. He kept smiling on his face and even walked towards Lao Zhu boldly.
"!!!"
"Then why did you happen to be near the incident?"
Sure enough, when Old Zhu saw Zhao Zheng's expression, he couldn't believe it in his heart, and at the same time he became more wary of him.
"It is thanks to your Majesty's great blessing that I am able to communicate with you and just happen to be nearby."
"I am ashamed to say that I have nothing, but I have followed your majesty's instructions to all officials, taking care of justice and caring about the daily necessities, so that I can have the insight to save some things for my country at the right time."
A little bit of mystery will ferment and automatically magnify in the opponent's mind.
If there are too many mysteries, it will be easy for the opponent to think that you are taking advantage of the power of the other party, or they will bite the bullet and try to prove it.
So when Old Zhu faced Zhao Zheng, who had become humble again, he didn't say anything more. He just picked up the tea and nodded. It was unclear whether it was because the tea was delicious or his neck was sore.
He wouldn't understand that what Zhao Zheng said at this time was actually the absolute truth.
Today, Zhao Zheng has basically exhausted all his advantages in the study of things, medicine, agronomy, or any other foresight.
Continuing development can no longer be controlled by him alone.
Ensuring judicial justice and daily necessities are the only two things he can do professionally.
As for the source of reliance and authority, apart from Zhao Zheng's own persistence and hard work, it all depends on Lao Zhu's protection.
His enemy is my sword. The enemy is me, the sword is you.
