629. Chapter 629 I am very interested in Fang Mengmeng! 1
Each of these people looked ragged, but there was no sign of any riot.
Instead, everyone held a bowl and lined up in front of several porridge shacks, waiting to receive porridge.
This long queue and the huge crowds of people made people immediately understand that these people are disaster victims!
There are so many victims outside Xijing City. If someone hadn't been giving porridge at this moment, there would have been a falling out.
This is a mob!
So many victims besieged the city, and they didn't even know about such a big thing.
Whenever a court is in crisis, it is first caused by improper handling of the disaster.
"What's going on?!" Baili Wujiang asked with a dark face.
It is unrealistic to say that a small number of people have ulterior motives, but with so many victims, no matter how they have ulterior motives.
Because this is the truth!
"Master Shangshu, Master Duwei, one of you is responsible for disaster relief, and the other is responsible for guarding the safety of Xijing City. Now tell me, what is going on?!" Baili Wujiang was completely angry.
"The emperor atones for his sins, but the ministers don't know about it!" Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance immediately knelt down.
"Your Majesty made atonement for his sins, and even Wei Chen didn't know about it. The people below were all lying to him, and he didn't tell Wei Chen about it, so Wei Chen didn't know about it!" Lord Du Wei also quickly knelt on the ground.
"Really don't know?! Come on, bring them up!" Ye Nanzhi said with a sneer.
Immediately, a man wearing the uniform of an officer of the city defenders was brought up.
"See you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please spare my life. I only took people to drive away those people outside after listening to the command of the Captain!" As soon as the man came up, he knelt down and said.
"Nonsense! You, a little general, dare to frame me!" Upon hearing this, the captain immediately stepped forward and kicked the general.
"Lord Captain, are you trying to kill people and silence them?!" Ye Nanzhi said with a sneer.
"Prime Minister Ye, you arranged this all!" Lord Captain said angrily to Ye Nanzhi.
"Are you wondering why you sent people to drive away these victims, but these victims stayed here safely and had porridge to drink? Then I tell you, this is my fault!"
"You have deceived and concealed it. You have known for a long time that not only did you not report the gathering of the victims, but you sent people to stop them and even used violence! The government offices in Xijing City still have a lot of victims locked up! Shouldn't you be responsible for these things?
Give an explanation to the emperor! And Lord Shangshu, when you say that the disaster situation is good and the victims' emotions are stable, do you mean that they are as stable as now?!" Ye Nanzhi asked, pointing to the victims queuing up to receive porridge below.
"You bastards! I trust you, but you repay me in this way! Come here, take the Minister of Revenue and the Captain down, lock them up, and leave this matter to the Prime Minister! All those involved in the case will be severely punished.
!" Baili Wujiang was completely angry.
As an emperor, you worry about natural disasters!
Natural disasters are okay and can be managed, but man-made disasters will shake the foundation of a country and even shake its imperial power.
Baili Wujiang knows this better than anyone else. He has governed this country for more than 20 years. Although he cannot be said to be a good person, a good father, or a good husband, he can indeed be regarded as a good emperor!
