Chapter 2099

There were a lot of things at the beginning of spring. After dealing with them one by one, the emperor called Niu Jishi and Yang Heshu, who were waiting in the side hall, for an audience.

Man Bao and Tang county magistrate sat up straight at the same time and looked at the front with concern.

Yang Heshu came in after Niu Jishi and knelt down to salute.

The emperor sat on the head, looked at them with deep eyes and asked: "smallpox is rampant in xiazhou. What do you two say?"

Niu Jishi paused. Before the officials of Dali temple came to xiazhou in person, he wanted to catch Yang Heshu's mistakes and divide the blame half and half;

But Dali Temple officials went to xiazhou personally and said they were investigating. In fact, they escorted their father and son. He vaguely felt the attitude of the capital.

I'm afraid the Yang family is running in the court.

In terms of contacts and friendship in front of his majesty, it is natural that Yang's family is more face-to-face, so Niu Jishi is very quiet all the way. If he can do this position, he won't be stupid.

However, he was used to the fact that the sky was high and the emperor was far away. Xiazhou was desolate and not close to the capital, but he didn't expect to meet a real Yang Heshu with a background.

Kneeling here at this time, thinking of his youngest son who was still locked up in Dali temple, he knew there was no way to avoid it, and he also knew something about today. He knew that shirking responsibility would only make him more angry.

So Niu Jishi immediately kowtowed and pleaded guilty, saying that he did not manage his house and educate his son, so that smallpox raged in xiazhou.

Old Tang couldn't help humming coldly when he heard him avoid the important and take the light. The acting emperor asked, "Niu Jishi, when did Niu Kang's concubine Hu Ji hire a doctor?"

He is a master of criminal cases. He is too lazy to argue with him. He directly asks the key points and sorts out the things. The officials sitting at the meeting will think for themselves.

The ox stabbed the history and couldn't answer for the moment.

Old lord Tang snorted again. He simply got up and went to the hall and asked Yang Heshu, "county magistrate Yang, you say."

Yang Heshu replied, "please call the doctor on September 18."

"When did Jackie die?"

"September 20th night."

Old Tang asked Niu Jishi, "Niu Jishi, when did your son have a fever and get a pox? Do you know that?"

After stumbling, Niu Jishi said, "September 22 is early."

"When did the doctor suspect it was smallpox?"

The fist in Niu Jishi's sleeve tightened and replied, "that day."

"Did you know that after what the doctor said, you isolated your son, reported it to the county government, banned him from contacting people, and counted and restrained the people who had contacted him at home?"

Niu Jishi lowered his head and knocked his head on the ground after being silent. "I'm guilty. I shouldn't pity my young son, so I'm lucky..."

"Niu Jishi, Niu Kang went out to Chunfeng building on September 23, but didn't go home until the afternoon of September 24. He spent a whole night and half a day with people in Chunfeng building. Why didn't your Niu family send someone to find someone?"

Niu Jishi's face was pale.

The emperor was so angry that he patted the table. Niu Jishi immediately said, "I know my mistake. Please bring your majesty down."

"Crime is to be punished, but we should also let all officials know why," Wei zhiyouyou interrupted: "Your Majesty, Yang Heshu is not different from what the Taiyuan hospital said. After the incident, we should sum up the lessons. Only if there is such a thing in the future will we not make such a mistake again. In this way, the two thousand two hundred and eighty-nine people who died have such a little value."

The emperor looked at Old Tang, "Tang Qing, you continue to ask."

Old Tang replied and continued to catch Niu Jishi and question Yang Heshu. He asked everything from the onset of Niu Kang to the doctor's first thought that it was smallpox, to the doctor's report to the county government, and then Yang Heshu's series of responses.

There were other officials of the imperial censor's station to check and fill the gaps. Some questions lasted for more than an hour.

Finally, the emperor and all officials did not directly condemn them, but withdrew from the court first.

The emperor recruited important officials such as Wei Zhi and old Tang, and then went to the study for discussion. The others withdrew from the dynasty. Yang Heshu and Niu Jishi still stayed in the palace to listen to the announcement.

Man Bao went to Yang Heshu, gave him all the snacks she had stuffed in her purse in the morning, and whispered, "eat some when you're hungry."

Tang Xianling also contributed his snacks to him and whispered, "Your Majesty is not very angry with you like this. If you are lucky, you should get results today and tomorrow."

Yang Heshu received their things and nodded slightly, "I know, you don't have to worry."

Indeed, the results soon came out. After man Bao had lunch in the Tai hospital and applied for leave with Doctor Liu, he went to the back palace to see Mingda and Changyu first, and then took them together to see the Crown Princess and the emperor's grandson. Before he went out of the palace, an informed waiter came to report: "Niu Jishi was sent to the heaven prison of Dali temple, and Lord Yang was ordered, But I heard that he might be promoted to the post of governor of xiazhou. "

In fact, the emperor hesitated. He couldn't find a suitable person to take over xiazhou at present.

Xiazhou is badly weakened now. It will certainly take a long time to recover, and capable officials can only be transferred from other places. Being transferred will also have an impact on other places.

He discussed with Wei Zhi and others for a long time. Finally, he didn't find a suitable candidate. There were still too few talents.

Finally, Lord Tang proposed Yang Heshu.

The emperor said, "I heard that many local gentry in xiazhou were killed and injured this time. Many people resented him for closing the city, cutting off their way and letting him stay in xiazhou. I'm afraid it would be bad for him."

Let a person resented by xiazhou be an assassin of xiazhou, which will be very unfavorable to the local construction and development. The emperor was unwilling to do so.

Moreover, the emperor also heard that when the city was closed, some people attacked Yang Heshu and his wife and children in order to get out of the city, so even in order to protect him and his family, he tended to transfer people away.

Yang Heshu is still young. Although he has committed the following taboos, what he has done is for the great good. The emperor still trusts his personal ability and morality. He wants to cultivate him.

Old lord Tang noticed the emperor's intention to cherish talent. After a pause, he said, "Your Majesty, why don't you ask county magistrate Yang."

He said: "Xia Zhou's resentment is actually very easy to solve. The culprit is the cow family. As long as you give a little guidance, it is not very difficult for folk public opinion to guide in this matter. Moreover, county magistrate Yang is familiar with things in xiazhou. In the past four months, he has been the duty of acting as an assassin, so I think there is no more suitable person than him. "

Wei Zhi also said, "Your Majesty, it's better to ask him. If he wants to experience this, he won't get less in the future than going to Jiangnan. Although xiazhou is desolate, it is under Fengzhou. It is the most important checkpoint in the East, West, North and south. It will not bend Yang Heshu's talent. "

He knew that the emperor wanted to transfer Yang Heshu to the south of the Yangtze River and take care of the tail left by various families in the south of the Yangtze River through his hands. There was a flood of private salt, which was also difficult to manage.

But Wei Zhi also felt that Yang Heshu was more suitable for xiazhou at this time.
