After hearing this, Jin Chun's face changed slightly, and he looked at Zhang Anshi very rudely.
At this time, I heard Zhang Anshi say to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, among these rumors, the reason why I judged that it came from the Ningguo Mansion is because..."
He paused, and said in a relaxed manner, "Because rumors change gradually."
"Gradient?" Zhu Di raised his eyebrows, looking at Zhang Anshi thoughtfully, as if he was also waiting for Zhang Anshi's next words.
Then Zhang Anshi went on to say: "It's as if one person spreads a message, and when it reaches the second person's ears, it will start to be embellished, until it reaches the third and fourth person's ears, it will gradually become outrageous again. .”
"So it's actually very simple to find the source of the news. That is, the closer the rumor is to the truth, the more likely it is the source of the news."
Zhu Di probably understood: "Zhang Qing continued."
So Zhang Anshi continued: "Here is the news that Dongchang gathered wind from various places. In the capital, rumors have begun to spread everywhere that thousands of people have died. It is even said that a large number of people have died in the capital. It is obvious. , these news are outrageous."
After a pause, Zhang Anshi continued: "This proves that the source of this news is definitely not from the inner city."
Zhu Di nodded again, and he felt more and more that Zhang Anshi seemed to be logically different from most people.
That's called professionalism!
In fact, through many things, the analysis and judgment of data and information is now almost one of the important courses in government schools.
Zhang Anshi continued: "The news didn't come out of the city, but this made the minister very suspicious. Because the person who spread the news was among the ministers and others, and all the princes here are high-ranking and powerful. Logically speaking, if they spread the news If the news comes out, then the source of the news must be in the city. After all... Nanzhili is very big, and it is difficult for them to have any contact with people outside Yingtian Mansion. So I pay special attention to the public opinion of Taiping River and Ningguo Mansion."
Zhu Di said quickly: "You mean... Taiping Mansion is because of Qing's family, and Ningguo Mansion is because of Jian Qing?"
Zhang Anshi said confidently: "Yes, I said bluntly, the other magistrates and officials in Nanzhili are not qualified to make friends with the people in this palace today. Those who can make contact with the princes in the court, except Your minister's Taiping Mansion is Ningguo Mansion."
"Because of this, I pay special attention to the public opinion of Qixia and Ningguo Mansion. The rumors on Qixia's side are mostly that thousands of people have been killed or injured in the inner city, and they even say...the whole city is full of dead rats, Your Majesty... Obviously, Qixia's news is even more outrageous. What they received must be second-hand news from the capital. If the source is from Qixia, then how could such a sensational news spread to the capital? The number of people has decreased?"
"We all know that the biggest feature of rumors is that after a personal word of mouth, the number will continue to expand. It's as if your majesty told the minister that he had a good appetite today and ate half a catty of meat. It spread to the second population, saying that His Majesty has a good appetite, and the meat he ate would never be less than half a catty. The fundamental reason is that the more sensational and exaggerated the rumors that people talk about, the more Contagious."
Yang Rong and others, when they first heard Zhang Anshi's categorical words about Ningguo Mansion, they seemed to believe that Zhang Anshi probably wanted to take personal revenge.
After all, Zhang Anshi and Jian Gong are not getting along well now.
But now, hearing what Zhang Anshi said, I have to admire... Zhang Anshi is at least logically tenable.
With their wisdom, it is natural to click through.
Jin Chun's complexion changed slightly, but he had to suppress his anger.
Zhu Di asked at this time: "Then why Ningguo Mansion?"
"Because among these many reports, the news from the Ningguo Mansion is the most accurate. Among the rumors collected by the East Factory, most of the rumors are that more than [-] people in Beijing have died. Although this is exaggerated, it is because the news The source has been polluted, and people spread word of mouth. Those news that were not shocking enough have long been covered up by more exaggerated rumors. However... Comparing their news samples with those of the capital city and Qixia, the minister dared to use the head as a guarantee. It must be from the Ningguo Mansion."
Immediately, Zhang Anshi continued righteously: "Since Ningguo Mansion is some distance away from the capital, news can be sent from Ningguo Mansion as quickly as possible. This Ningguo Mansion... from top to bottom, except for Mr. I can't imagine that there are still people who make friends with the ministers in this palace, and even work among the princes, and some people work tirelessly to release the news in person."
Zhu Di frowned and said, "Jian Yi?"
Zhu Di's complexion became more and more ugly, and his complexion turned cold.
Yang Rong and the others were silent. To be honest, they dare not say that what Zhang Anshi said must be the truth, but at least... this should be the logic closest to the truth.
Seeing that His Majesty was furious, Jin Chun hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, this is just... an inference without any real evidence..."
Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "Anything, as long as it is done, there will be traces. Now that there is already an inference, it becomes easy to find evidence. In fact, it is very simple to investigate thoroughly, that is, if it is true If someone sends a message to Mr. Jian, then the one who leaked the news must not be Mr. Jian himself, but the people around him. Around this clue, the person in charge of handling his documents and letters will know immediately."
"Furthermore, since someone sends a letter, and the news is so fast, it must be a fast horse. If the horse does not stop... Just check the condition of the horses in each mansion to find out. And the person who sends the letter must also be a confidant... These It is clear at a glance how many people left Beijing last night. There are many ways to investigate, and it is just a breeze to follow the clues."
Zhu Di glanced at all the people here with a frosty face, and then looked at Zhang Anshi and said, "In this way, who do you think is the most likely?"
Zhang Anshi looked around, smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Jian is very popular in the court. I think everyone here has a close relationship with him, but I am thinking... a mere relationship is not enough." Yes, because there are many kinds of relationships, some are pure friendship, and some are different. For example, this time, for such an important military event, the news did not come from the capital, but it was transmitted to Ningguo Mansion immediately. This shows that someone I think it is very important for Mr. Jian to get the news as soon as possible.”
"For such a terrible thing as the plague, instead of first notifying the family secretly, but instead notifying Mr. Jian, it is not an ordinary relationship. I dare to assert that the person who conveyed the news should not be in Wenyuan Pavilion."
“How come you see?”
"In Wenyuan Pavilion, although there are people who are close to Mr. Jian, after all, they are collaborators. They have not yet reached the point where both of them are prosperous and both of them are prosperous."
Zhu Di nodded approvingly, and then his eyes fell on several ministers.
Zhang Anshi smiled slightly: "Next, we can rule out Jin Zhong Jinbutang, Jinbutang...cough cough..."
Jin Zhong said with a blue face: "Can you finish the sentence? Don't cough, it makes the old man seem to have some hidden disease."
Zhang Anshi felt embarrassed, and then said: "This...Jinbutang, I mean, Jinbutang is His Majesty's former minister in Beiping, and he only knows about His Majesty, but not others, so..."
Jin Zhong said: "Then you just say no."
Zhang Anshi continued: "Secondly, Duke Xia can be eliminated."
Xia Yuanji saw that the drug circle was getting smaller and smaller. Although he felt that he was upright, he was also afraid that he would be suspected. Now that Zhang Anshi had ruled him out, he was silently relieved.
Zhu Di asked again: "How can you see it?"
Zhang Anshidao: "When Emperor Taizu Gao was here, Xia Gong entered the ban and issued a patent. By the time of Jianwen, he was already the right servant of the household department. It's an extraordinary promotion, and today's success depends on his own qualifications. Although he has a close relationship with Mr. Jian, there is really no need to pass on such important military affairs to Mr. Jian as quickly as possible."
Zhu Di's gaze became more and more heavy, and he said, "Then..."
At this moment, all eyes were on Jin Chun.
Jin Chun's complexion changed.
Jin Chun immediately said: "I am wronged."
Zhang Anshi said: "Duke Jin, if my memory is correct, you first worked as a doctor in the Department of Literature and Selection of the Ministry of Officials, and then went to the Secretary of Political Affairs in Jiangxi to participate in politics... When His Majesty ascended the throne, Duke Jian strongly recommended you, you Only then was he exceptionally promoted from Jiangxi to the imperial court and became Minister of the Ministry of Punishment."
It can be said that Jin Chun's promotion was extremely abnormal. He first worked as an ordinary official in the Ministry of Officials, and he should have made friends with Jian Yi since then, which was regarded as an old official in ancient times.
Afterwards, he went to Jiangxi to participate in politics on the right, which was actually the right-hand man of the chief executive and a local official, but his status was not prominent.
And it was precisely during his participation in politics that the imperial court at that time was dominated by several favorite ministers of Emperor Jianwen, and even Jian Yi had stepped aside.
But when Zhu Di came to the throne, Jian Yi's tide rose, and Jin Chun immediately skyrocketed.
You know, entering the court from a local official is already very difficult, and after entering the court, he was quickly promoted to the high position of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, which is definitely an eye-opener.
Without Jian Yi's strong recommendation, this would have been almost impossible.
Zhu Di also seemed to understand something.
One glory and one glory.
There are some relationships like this, if something happens to Jian Yi, the bachelors of Wenyuan Pavilion naturally don't have much to do with it, it doesn't matter whoever is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.
It doesn't matter to Xia Yuanji, Xia Yuanji has profound qualifications, and he is also a disciple and old official all over the world. In a sense, the emperor needs him to be the secretary of the household department so that he can better deal with many problems of the court.
As for Jin Zhong, needless to say, when the emperor is here, he is there. As Zhu Di's humerus, it has nothing to do with whoever is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.
But Jin Chun is different. This former official of the Ministry of Officials, who participated in politics in Jiangxi, although he is a minister of the Ministry of Punishment, actually has no foundation.
No matter in terms of qualifications or other aspects, it is far inferior to other Shangshu, and even the emperor's impression of him is not very deep. All he can rely on is Jian Yi, and Jian Yi's former student is his The support of Jian Yi, an old student and former official, is his greatest guarantee.
Zhu Di suddenly became furious: "It seems that a thorough investigation is necessary, isn't it? Do you want me to order someone to go to your house immediately to check the details?"
After hearing this, Jin Chun's face was ashen.As Zhang Anshi said, as long as you follow the vines to find out such things, there will be nothing that cannot be found out, and it will be indisputable at that time... That is to say, you will not shed tears if you don't see the coffin.
He hastily kowtowed and said with deep sorrow: "Chen... Your Majesty's love for mere commoners, and your majesty's love for such a high position. Your Majesty... is guilty of ten thousand deaths. Yesterday... I did pass on a letter to Mr. Jian, not because of it." I have selfish intentions, but... I feel that this is a big deal, and Mr. Jian is a heavenly official of the Ministry of Officials, so he should know about it. Minister... minister..."
Jin Chun's complexion became more and more miserable, but he kept kowtowing, saying that he would die.
Zhu Di's expression changed drastically, he gritted his teeth, and stared at Jin Chun with a ferocious expression: "I told you again and again, but you dare to take risks, with such sinister intentions, you deserve to be punished."
Jin Chun had no choice but to continue to kowtow: "Yes, I have the crime of ten thousand deaths."
Zhu Di said: "You passed the letter to Jian Yi, but Jian Yi sent the news..."
"No..." Jin Chun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Jian... Mr. Jian is a gentleman. He has always been cautious and considerate in his actions. If news spreads, it must not be Mr. Jian's actions... Maybe it's because his ministers did not act well. That's why...that's why the news was leaked in the middle, it's all my fault, I'm...deserving of death, my mistakes are all my faults, now I'm living in a temple..."
As he spoke, he couldn't help sobbing: "It's no wonder Mr. Jian..."
Zhu Di glared at Jin Chun fiercely.
At this time, Jin Chun still wanted to protect Jian Yi.
Everyone looked at Jin Chun and couldn't help but sigh.
The relationship between Jian Yi and Jin Chun is indeed far beyond the friendship of ordinary people. When Jian Yi was squeezed out by Jianwen, Jin Chun, as Jian Yi's confidant, was sent directly to Jiangxi to participate in politics.And once Jian Yi stood on the temple again, he used almost all means to ensure that Jin Chun entered the court.
This kind of relationship is really not comparable to ordinary people.
Zhu Di said with a cold face: "How should we deal with the leakage of military aircraft?"
Zhu Di continued: "What's more, this person is still the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment. It can be said that he knows the law and broke the law, and the crime is even more serious."
Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi at this time.
Zhang Anshi thought for a while and said, "Actually...the minister also wants to plead guilty."
"Huh?" Zhu Di was taken aback.
Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, I already knew that the news would leak out."
Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and said, "Why?"
"I am the Commander of Jin Yiwei, Tongzhi. In fact... when I came to see His Majesty yesterday, I knew that there will be no secrets between Jin Chun and Jian Yi. This news... will definitely spread to everyone. world."
Zhu Di was taken aback again: "Then why didn't you say it earlier?"
Zhang Anshidao: "I actually think... this news, if you want to hide it, you can't hide it. Rather than the court covering it up, it's better... to get something out."
Zhu Di said: "But now people's hearts are floating, do you know... what will be the consequences of floating people's hearts?"
Zhang Anshi said: "Of course I know, but...Your Majesty, once the plague starts to break out among the crowd, sooner or later people's hearts will be fluctuated. Instead of this, it's better... Wait for the news from Fujian, and we will Everyone's attention is shifted to the Fujian plague, to teach everyone to see if there is any way to alleviate it."
"Although the situation is difficult now, as long as the soldiers and civilians in Nanzhili have hope to survive, the hearts of the people will naturally be stabilized."
Zhu Di pursed his lips and said slowly, "Did you send someone over to Jianning Mansion?"
Zhang Anshi said truthfully: "It's already gone, hurry up and travel day and night."
Zhu Di's expression finally softened a bit: "How sure are you?"
He is still counting on Zhang Anshi to have a solution!
Zhang Anshi said: "I only dare to say that I will do my best."
Zhu Di couldn't help but sighed, and said again: "Then how to deal with this Jin Chun?"
"Dismiss from office and wait for investigation and punishment." Zhang Anshijian said: "At this time, there is no need to make any more troubles. The relationship between the minister and Mr. Jian is not harmonious, but when the country is in danger, the minister also knows himself. Mr. Jian and others are known to be human. Hope has always been relied on by the soldiers and civilians of the world."
"If there is any trouble in the imperial court at this time, it will arouse the suspicion of the people in the world. Even if it is to be dealt with, it will make them take the blame and make meritorious deeds. We will discuss it later."
After listening to Zhang Anshi's words, Yang Rong couldn't help but look sideways at Zhang Anshi.
He originally thought that Zhang Anshi would take the opportunity to make trouble at this time, but who would have thought that at this time, Zhang Anshi would turn to speak for Jian Yi and Jin Chun.
Even Jin Chun was so ashamed when he heard Zhang Anshi's words, he lowered his head slightly, wishing he could find a crack in the ground and sneak in.
Jin Zhong was also thoughtful, but he was also surprised.
Zhu Di let out a long breath, and then quietly said: "That's it..."
He showed a bit of disbelief, but now he also knew that everything should be dealt with the plague that was coming in front of him first.
Zhu Di was obviously in a bad mood today, so he said, "Everyone back down."
Everyone quietly retreated with interest.
Zhang Anshi was very busy, so he walked in a hurry.
After walking not far, Jin Chun quickly chased after him: "Duke Wei..."
Zhang Anshi stopped and only looked back at him.
Jin Chun only made a long bow to him, wanted to say something, but didn't say anything, and then walked away quickly.
Zhang Anshi: "..."
"You kid, it seems that you have grown up, and I thought you would take revenge!"
Watching Jin Chun's back, Jin Zhong came slowly, couldn't help smiling, and seemed relieved: "At first when I saw you, I looked a bit like Monk Yao, but later I realized more and more that you are not only like Monk Yao, but also like Monk Yao. He is Monk Yao's long-lost grandson."
"Who are you scolding?" Zhang Anshi was angry, and immediately opened his eyes wide, staring at Jin Zhong.
Jin Zhong pressed his hands: "Don't worry, listen to the old man, but just when the old man thought you were Monk Yao's second, now you find that it's different. You are better than him, that's the heart Not that small."
Zhang Anshi said very honestly: "I'm not short-sighted, but I want to do something that no one has done before. At this time, I must protect Mr. Jian and never let him have trouble in other places, because... ...I want to beat him upright! When I beat him, I didn't mean to knock him down, but to tell the world that the old way won't work anymore."
The admiration in Jin Zhong's eyes grew stronger, and he said with a smile, "What a ambition!"
"It's not ambition." Zhang Anshi said, "It's a conspiracy. It's a fight on the table, and it's going to teach everyone that they can't pick out the thorns."
Jin Zhong sighed: "Monk Yao is different, he likes to play tricks the most."
Zhang Anshi said, "I want to tell him these words."
Jin Zhong: "..."
"Okay, just kidding, just kidding."
Jin Zhong then said worriedly: "You said... can the plague really be prevented?"
Zhang Anshi said truthfully: "Difficult, very difficult."
Jin Zhong showed disappointment: "But you sent someone to Jianning Mansion."
"I just want to give it a try." Zhang Anshi looked at Jin Zhong seriously and said, "No matter what, a dead horse should be treated as a living horse doctor."
Jin Zhong showed a sad look: "Once it spreads, there is no way to prevent it, and it will really suffer. But I don't know... how many soldiers and civilians will die. This is a disaster for the world."
Zhang Anshi's heart also sank. The plague is in Europe at this time, but it has killed tens of millions of people... If it was placed in Daming...
But Zhang Anshi cheered up: "Anyway..."
"No matter what?"
Zhang Anshi said a very second-degree sentence: "As long as there is a slight possibility, we must try. Okay, Jin Gong, I have something to do...Leave."
Jin Zhong showed a complex look, and his worried mood has been difficult to dissipate.
This kind of sad mood is actually more than just a Jin Zhong.
…………
Jianning Mansion.
It has been more than half a month since I came here.
Chen Daowen saw several villages and towns along the way, and there were quite a few of them, and there were ten rooms and nine empty ones.
These things, if they were only put on the report, might be just numbers one by one, but only when they saw it with their own eyes, did they know how serious the plague was here.
At that moment, according to Zhang Anshi's instructions, he rushed to the Jianning government office.
But Zhifu is already seriously ill, and he probably won't live long.
Now it is the Tongzhi Department, but this Tongzhi looks lifeless.
Their only advantage is that they are low-ranking officials. Even if they are really infected with the plague, they will only die alone, and their family members are at least thousands of miles away.
But for Jin Yiwei, this fellowship is considered cooperation.
Under Chen Daowen's instructions, they opened up an area in a certain workshop in Fucheng.
In this area, everyone distributed the medicines, and at the same time... took out the contents of the cart, and began to distribute them.
This square is directly surrounded by Jin Yiwei, and no one is allowed to enter or leave.
Immediately afterwards, people were asked to record the situation of the people who were infected with the plague and the situation of publicizing the medicine.
More than half a month has passed.
A piece of data began to appear.
The ashen-faced fellow acquaintance gradually began to turn slightly rosy.
To be precise, there was light in his eyes.
After that, he became more and more energetic.
Until the tenth day of March.
He excitedly found Chen Daowen.
"The new number... has been registered again. It is very effective, very effective, Chen Qianhu... Chen Qianhu..."
Tongzhi rushed forward, like a hungry ghost, and kissed Chen Qianhu directly on the face.
into your mother.
Chen Qianhu was furious when he was insulted by this. He pressed the handle of the knife on his waist and glared at the acquaintance.
Tong Zhi didn’t take it seriously: “Guess how many people have been infected with the plague in this neighborhood these past few days? Three… only three… For more than half a month, the number of people infected with the plague in the surrounding area is ten times or a hundred times that of this place.” , but here... there are only three people..."
Tongzhi suddenly cried, wiped his tears and said: "There are countless living people, countless living people, the common people are saved."
