Chapter 177: Disguise Goes
On the morning of the second day, Chu Yinghan seemed to be in poor spirits, he had always been calm and thin, and his emotions never showed on his face. Today, however, he was impatient, and several times the old minister's narration was interrupted and urged. Until no one dared to speak, it ended in a hurry.
Before anyone left the main hall, he ordered the eldest father-in-law to go directly to the Fengyin Palace. Leaving the ministers to look at each other, the uneven grace of the harem was originally mentioned, but Chu Yinghan ignored it at all, and everyone couldn't do anything. It's a good thing, as soon as Empress Xian fell ill, he didn't even care about state affairs.
Everyone sighed that Xiao Jiu should not be called a virtuous queen, but a demon queen who charmed the lord. Complaining is complaining, but people have no choice. I didn't think that on the second day, Emperor Ying said that Empress Xian was seriously ill and had no time to go to court, leaving a room full of helpless ministers. Zihuai had to hold back a smile to comfort.
He was the master of running back and forth, and he had only told him about this matter, and he could respond at any time while staying in the palace. It was difficult for the officials in the border city to meet each other, and Chu Yinghan dressed up as fifty or sixty years old, took the token he gave himself, and disguised himself as a new Shangshu and set off.
Fast horses whipped straight to Weikang City, changing horses on the way, but people did not rest. Li You, a scholar who was originally taken care of in the study in the house, was also kept by him as a personal guard. Li You's intuition was terrified, when he was a child, he accompanied a reading child, and Emperor Ying remembered that he had no father, no mother, nowhere to go, and he did not stay in the study to clean, and he did not belong to the next person, nor did he belong to the guests.
Not to mention the people in the house, even he himself almost forgot about his existence. Every day, I only soaked in my own hut and read books. The whole house entered the palace, but he was the only one who stayed still, and followed Gao Fu to stay in the old mansion, which suddenly called him, or a personal guard, you must know that not to mention martial arts, he didn't even dare to kill chickens.
Running around for days, not to mention the pants I was wearing, even the meat in my thighs was worn out a lot, and it hurt hotly. When I was about to lose my hand, I finally arrived at Weikang. The one who secretly connected was the squire of the Ministry of Works, and he was also an old official who had long defended him.
He knew that Emperor Ying had sent someone, but he didn't know that it was him. Seeing an old man and a young man, who looked funny, his heart sank slightly, and he didn't know what this Emperor Ying meant, besides, the young guard, just seeing him, was nervous, and his heart was even more unhappy, and he hugged his fists and said: "The waiter of the Ministry of Industry is reluctant, dare to ask Your Excellency?"
Chu Yinghan saw that he didn't recognize himself, so he was secretly happy, and replied with a hint of joy: "The minister is a person from Yuanxiang Prefecture who sentenced Wu to stab!
It was not easy to blow his face, so he only said coldly: "The road is rushing, Your Excellency should rest for a long time!" Chu Yinghan said: "Slow! Emperor Ying's deadline is too short, why don't you please lead the way at this moment and see how the dam is!"
Mian Ju glanced at it coldly and said: "Don't be afraid of death, let's go, there were two more collapses yesterday, they are being built, the king of Shang has reduced the rescue funds, if this is not good, the people will definitely have nothing left after a year of hard work." ”
Chu Yinghan frowned and said, "He reduced the rescue money?" Mian Ju didn't pay attention to him, and so far he walked to the front, and the flood was discharged in the distance, like a flying dragon, even if he stood so far away, he could get muddy water on his body. The guards were all valiant, and the leaders were not lazy. The mud was smeared on his body for several layers, and he couldn't see the human form at all, and there were even victims, so he threw them aside like this, and didn't care about them at all.
Different from what he imagined, this bag of load-bearing sacks was pressed down, and soon collapsed, but the water was not as fierce as he imagined, why on earth? Seeing him stunned, he thought he was frightened, so he said: "There is no heavy rain today, the situation is quite good, there are guards at the bottom to block it, at least the downstream cannot wash away the agricultural materials, if it is a heavy rain, you can only carry it dead, and many major generals in our army have been washed away by the water!"
"How is the Nanshang army?" Chu Yinghan couldn't help but ask. Mian Ju shook his head and said: "This is their place, there are always people whose hometown is here, and they are even more desperate, and many people have lost their lives." ”
Li You didn't know what he was thinking, while looking at this messy scene, he touched his newly changed pants, rubbed his aching and numb buttocks, and muttered in a low voice: "The gold and jade are outside, and they are ruined." My ass looks good, but I'm afraid it's festering inside. ”
happened to be heard by Chu Yinghan, his thick eyebrows stared at the bags of sacks, he looked coldly, took the sack in the hand of a guard and said, "I'll help you!" I couldn't notice anything, so I had to continue to carry it.
Mian Ju looked at it coldly, and said sarcastically with Li You: "Did Emperor Ying send your master to fight the flood, or did he come to work as a hard laborer? If it is a coolie, there are not enough people." After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left. This failed again and again, and he lost many of his own soldiers, and he was also very uncomfortable in his heart. I was hoping that Emperor Ying would have a good way, but I didn't want to send such a person, so I was even more disappointed and anxious.
After moving the sack overnight, Chu Yinghan intuitively felt that his left shoulder had been bruised with blood, because of the official uniform he was wearing, the soldiers took care of him more and asked him to rest on the side, and most of the soldiers who were resting were already semi-unconscious, and the exposed feet and hands were like white skin disease, peeling off their skin and flesh everywhere.
But this embankment is still constantly washed away, and the method left by the ancestors has never been so useless. It rained heavily this night, and the collapse was even more serious, Chu Yinghan also went down to the river with him, and the anxious Li You circled around it, and suddenly saw a wasteland in the west of the river, and he was overjoyed, and hurriedly shouted: "Open up the drainage, quickly, quickly find tools."
At this moment, Chu Yinghan was also like a clay man, seeing him shouting, he pushed up a sack again, wiped his face, followed the position of Li You's finger, and said in a deep voice: "Tell Mian Ju to bring the map." Li You ran in a panic to find Mianju, and the three of them huddled in a sheltered room. Spreading out the map, Li You's sharp eyes pointed and said: "Look, there is no one in this deceptive wasteland, there is only a building looking at the astrolabe, which must also be owned by the official family." From here, a diversion is opened up to the Louguan River, where it joins the river, which can subtract much of the amount of water that hits the dam. ”
Chu Yinghan poked the map and said firmly: "That's it, I advise you to go and assign people quickly, it's useless to carry it on this side of the dam." But now that this rainstorm is falling, when will it be cleared?"
Li You said again: "It's okay, please buy more white vinegar, pour it and dig it, everyone is united, and soon a part of it can be drained." ”
Mian Ju raised his beard and said, "But that building has to get the order of the Shang King." When Chu Yinghan heard this, he said angrily: "Confused, in this situation, what kind of instructions do you care, it won't be in the way if you cut first and then play!"
Seeing that he was about to act, he reluctantly stopped: "You are so impulsive, but you are harming Yigan soldiers and officials, they are so desperate, how can you be so casual?"
The heavy rain washed away the yellow mud on his face, very unhappy, Chu Yinghan wiped his face and said angrily: "If there is any problem, I will bear it alone!"
Mian Ju listened to the familiar voice, and suddenly raised his head, the rainstorm yellow mud had already washed away the things decorated by Xiao Jiu, revealing the appearance of the deity. was so frightened that his legs and feet were weak, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground: "The ministers see Emperor Ying!"
Thinking of Fang Cai and seeing him move sand down the dam, he was even more frightened, but he didn't care and said, "Don't make a noise, go and do something." ”
