Having said that, Zhang Daxiang didn't just borrow one step, but directly borrowed Han Yi outside the building.

"Shangshu Han, something big happened!" When he arrived at a corner on the left side of the car shop, Zhang Daxiang immediately said anxiously.

Han Yi felt something was wrong in his heart. Now when he heard Zhang Daxiang say this, he couldn't help but feel a little shocked, but his eyes looked at Zhang Daxiang in confusion, because in his opinion, it should be a stable period now, and Li Zhi is not there, and he can't make a fuss even if he wants to make a fuss.

Zhang Daxiang whispered to Han Yi: "Just just now, the fast Malay newspaper in Shanzhou. Last year, the grain fleet escorted from Shandong to Chang'an occurred when it passed through Sanmen Pizhu of Shanzhou three days ago."

There was a sudden thunder in Han Yi's head. It was really worse than the human calculations. He dared not believe it: "What did you say?"

Zhang Daxiang sighed and just nodded.

Han Yi said excitedly: "What the hell is going on?"

Zhang Daxiang said: "According to the person who came to report, it was because there was a lot of rain in Shanzhou a few days ago and the river was rushing. The canal transport officer was eager to transport the food to Chang'an. So he ordered a boatman to pull the canal transport boat through the dangerous road of the Pizhu. However, just one-third of it, he suddenly encountered a torrent. The boatman could not hold it back at all. Many boats hit the reefs at the bottom of the river. Some of them sank at that time. What's more terrible is that some boats were knocked and disintegrated at that time, and their hull hit the ship behind, causing the ship behind to sink."

"This group of bastards!"

Han Yi was stunned for a long time and cursed with gritting his back teeth.

If it is God's will, there is really nothing to do, but if it is done by man, it is difficult not to get angry!

In fact, the conquering of the canal transport is a common occurrence, but the Tang Dynasty has never had such a major accident so far. What's more important is that their Ministry of Revenue is discussing the management of rivers with the Ministry of Industry. If it is delayed by another two or three months, the accident may not have happened. But at this time, it made him very angry.

"Do you know how many people died?" Han Yi asked again.

Zhang Daxiang said: "I don't know the specifics, but based on this situation, it is estimated that hundreds of people will definitely have them, and there must be a lot of food losses. Fortunately, Guanzhong has been doing good weather recently, so it will not cause a food shortage crisis."

Just then, an official hurried over, "Oh! Shangshu Han, it's best for you to be here. Li Zhongshu ordered the officials to come and ask Shangshu Han to go to the Political Affairs Hall immediately, saying that there is an urgent matter to discuss."

"I see!"

Han Yi knew what was going on without asking, and said to Zhang Daxiang: "You should send someone to deal with the aftermath, oh, let Zheng Shanxing go, he is good at this."

Zhang Daxiang nodded.

After giving instructions, Han Yi immediately rushed to the Political Affairs Hall.

......

When they arrived at the Political Affairs Hall, several ministers were all here, and even Li Ji rushed over, which shows the seriousness of the matter.

"If the news is true, this will be the biggest shipwreck accident since the founding of the Tang Dynasty." Du Zhenglun frowned.

Xu Jingzong immediately pointed at Han Yi and said, "You are the Minister of Revenue in this matter, and it is hard to blame."

He didn't want to disgust Han Yi, but hoped that Han Yi would take the blame, because when Li Zhi left, he handed over the court to them. Now that such a big accident has occurred, someone has to bear it.

Han Yi glanced at Xu Jingzong and sneered: "I didn't say I was irresponsible, why are you so nervous?"

"Why!"

Li Ji raised his hand and said, "It's very unfair to anyone to hold this matter accountable before it has been investigated."

Li Yifu nodded and said, "Sikong said very well that the canal transportation is under the control of Zhouji Office, not the fault of Han Shangshu."

In fact, they didn't say anything. The Ministry of Revenue has the final say on how much grain to transport to Chang'an every year. The Ministry of Revenue has the final say on the matters of the business department, which is in charge of the grain transportation. What is the collection of labor, transportation, and dispatch are all the matters of the Zhouji Office. However, the government orders must come from the Ministry of Revenue. You must pursue it from above, and you will definitely be able to hold Han Yi. Now that there is such a big accident, the minister must be responsible, but who is willing to take the blame?

Li Ji said again: "Now we have to deal with this matter quickly to prevent more serious consequences."

Li Yifu said: "Then you have to send someone to investigate the matter immediately to see how much food has been lost."

Lu Chengqing frowned and said, "This is just the second. Guanzhong has been doing well every year, Taicang is full, and Chang'an is not short of food for the time being. It's just that such a big accident has caused so many people to die. If it is not handled properly, chaos may occur."

Han Yi frowned and suddenly remembered a person in his heart. This person was Chen Shuozhen. Didn’t the Chen Shuozhen rebellion happen after the disaster? Although he also knew that it was difficult to have a major turmoil here, because Shanzhou happened to be in the middle of the two capitals, so it was impossible for such a big turmoil to occur. However, when he thought of this, he was immediately worried. After weighing the pros and cons, he said, “Let’s do this, I’ll go investigate in person.”

Everyone couldn't help but look at Han Yi.

Li Yifu immediately said: "If Han Shangshu is willing to go in person, it would be better." As he said that, he looked at Li Ji again and said: "I wonder what Sikong thought?"

Li Ji pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.

Han Yi immediately stood up and said, "Then Han will say goodbye first."

"Wait a minute!"

Li Ji said: "The situation there is unknown now. I will send some people to go with you."

Han Yi bowed and said, "Thank you. But thirty people are enough. If there are too many, it will be a waste of time."

Li Ji nodded.

After leaving the Political Affairs Hall, Han Yi called an imperial guard and ordered: "You should hurry to the Civil Security Bureau immediately and ask General Superintendent Cheng to come to the Ministry of Revenue."

"Here!"

Then Han Yi rushed to the Ministry of Revenue immediately.

"Why are you back?" Zhang Daxiang looked at Han Yi in surprise. This matter is quite big. He has just arrived and Han Yi has arrived. What can we talk about in such a short time?

Han Yi shrugged and said, "There is nothing to talk about. Let's deal with the accident first. Oh, Zheng Shanxing hasn't left yet, right?"

Zhang Daxiang said: "It shouldn't be there yet. He just said that he had to instruct someone to mobilize supplies in case of emergency."

Han Yi nodded with gratitude. Finally, someone thought the same as he thought, and said, "Hurry up and have someone go to him and tell him that there is no need to arrange these and ask him to go home and prepare. I will rush to Shanzhou with me this afternoon."

Zhang Daxiang said in a little surprised: "You want to go in person?"

Han Yi nodded and said worriedly: "If something big happens, I still have to go and see it myself."

Zhang Daxiang said: "Then do I want to go with you?"

Han Yi shook his head and said, "No, you stayed in the Ministry of Revenue. It's spring now, and there are quite a lot of things happening to the Ministry of Revenue."

Zhang Daxiang nodded.

After a while, Cheng Chuliang came. He seemed to have no idea about this and said, "Why did you invite me here today? Hehe, may you want to increase your salary to the Royal Police? That's great!"

Han Yi laughed twice, "I'm afraid I haven't eaten any food after returning my salary."

Cheng Chuliang was shocked and said, "What's going on?"

"It seems that the Civil Security Bureau has to be added and there are many aspects to improve!"

Han Yi sighed and informed Cheng Chuliang of the shipwreck again.

Cheng Chuliang was stunned immediately.

Han Yi said: "I will rush to Shanzhou later. I don't have time to tell you too much. I need the help of the Royal Police now. After you go back, you will immediately dispatch fifty Royal Police to Shanzhou to wait for my order."

Cheng Chuliang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back and arrange it now."

After Cheng Chuliang left, Han Yi immediately set off. Before leaving, he went to Beixiang. He first greeted Xiao Wuyi, then called Ono, and joined forces with the thirty families sent by Zheng Shanxing and Li Ji, and rushed to Shaanxi.

Han Yi drove away the shipwreck, and the incident of the shipwreck immediately spread.

People inside and outside the city were panicked.

"Oh... many people will die in the canal transportation every year, and the court does not think of a solution."

"What kind of solution does the imperial court think? If the imperial court does not bother us, let's be content. Haven't you heard that the reason for such a big accident this time was because the cabbage official was eager to complete the task, regardless of the life and death of the labor service, and this kind of thing had happened in the past."

"You can't say that, and the court doesn't want to do it either, but these three main pillars of the river are dangerous and accidents occur every year."

"Have you ever heard of an accident in a merchant ship there, why was it just a canal ship accident?"

"That's true. It seems that there is no accident in the fleet heading south. It's really strange."

But they didn't think about it. The southbound trade has only been around for about three years, and the canal transportation is available every year. This has not happened, which does not mean it will not happen. The merchants were also scared!

"This is really scary. If this happens to our merchant ship, we will be completely done."

"Oh! Lao Qian, can you close your stinky mouth? When I think of this, I can't even eat."

"Everyone, why don't we go there and see the situation. If it is serious, then our fleet must be careful."

"Yes, yes, I think we should go there and have a look."

"Is this too dangerous? This accident has just happened, so it must be very messy there."

"Brother Han has gone. Our lives are not as valuable as his lives. He is not afraid of them. What are we afraid of?"

"That's right, then let's go back and clean up."

But not everyone is as scared as they are, and some people are happy about it.

Du Mansion.

"This is really God helping me!"

After Li Youyi confirmed the matter from Du Zhenglun, she looked excited and clapped her hands and applauded.

Du Zhenglun was shocked when he heard this, "Don't you want to live anymore?"

If this is heard by people, you, the Minister of the Secretariat, will definitely not be able to do it.

"Sorry, sorry." Li Youyi said embarrassedly: "The official was so excited for a moment, but it was not the case. I hope Du Zhongshu will forgive me."

Du Zhenglun frowned and said, "I really don't understand. What's the matter worth being happy about? Now the court is almost in chaos."

Li Youyi said: "Du Zhongshu, this is God helping us!"

Du Zhenglun frowned and said, "How do you say this?"

Li Youyi said: "Du Zhongshu, you said that this accident was caused by the rush to deliver the food by the official of the grain transport industry, but the official thought it was not the root cause."

Du Zhenglun was stunned and said, "Then do you think the reason is the reason?"

Li Youyi immediately said: "At the beginning of Zhenguan year, the imperial court only had to transport 100,000 to 200,000 stones of grain from other places every year. However, after the Xianqing year, the number doubled. The grain can be used by the imperial court, not for the people. It can be seen that more and more people eat grain, so the burden of grain transportation is getting bigger and bigger. The official of the grain transportation is eager to deliver grain. It can be seen that the fundamental reason for this matter is not the official of the grain transportation, but the person who eats grain."

Du Zhenglun's eyes flashed with a sudden glance when he heard this, "What do you mean?"

Li Youyi said: "Du Zhongshu, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If such a big thing happens, how can you not disturb Your Majesty? Moreover, the food was originally shipped to Taicang. Your Majesty must also be very concerned. He will definitely summon the ministers to go to Luoyang to inquire. At that time, Du Zhongshu can trace the origin and point out the disadvantages."

Du Zhenglun thought for a little while and hesitated: "But using this matter to take advantage of the problem is not moral? After all, no one wants to do this accident."

Li Youyi said: "It's inappropriate to do this, but the Li Yifu we face is not going to be a gentleman if we fight with such villains."
