Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Annunciation

"What is the water level of the Yunjiang River? Are there any signs of flooding in Neijiang? ”

The torrential rain continued, and Lin Gu's face in the mansion was full of nervousness.

When the guards heard this, there was no hint of nervousness on their faces at this moment, but a strong sense of joy.

"My lord, although the water of the Yunjiang River has risen a lot, there is no sign of flooding, and although the water of the Neijiang River has also risen, it has begun to discharge floods, and it has not affected the crops on the shore and the villages outside the city in the slightest."

"Great!"

When Lin Gu heard this, he was immediately pleasantly surprised, watching the original heavy rain outside slowly turn into a hazy drizzle, and his face could not hide the surprise on his face.

"Let's go out with me."

In his experience, it was time for the rain to rest.

It's been raining for more than half a month, and now it's starting to drizzle, which is a sign that the rain is going to stop.

When the guards heard this, they immediately nodded again and again.

Now that the rain has decreased, there is no danger in thinking.

After flowing out of the city, Lin Gu came to the bank of the Yunjiang River.

At this moment, the bank of the Yunjiang River was already full of countless people, all of whom were looking at the Yunjiang in front of them tightly, and looking back at the crops behind them, with an indescribable look on their faces.

When they saw Lin Gu, a group of people suddenly knelt down, ignoring the mud on the ground, and kowtowed to Lin Gu one by one.

"Thank you, Lord for controlling the water, allowing me to keep the food!"

A crowd of people howled and cried.

Seeing such a heavy rain falling continuously, they had experienced several floods, and they had already expected that their fields would be washed away again.

In addition, in the villages outside the city, it is also possible that it will suffer.

But who knows, this heavy rain does not stop day after day, but even if this heavy rain continues to fall, this Yunjiang water still seems to be mild, and there is no trace of rage.

If this is the usual case, the Yunjiang River will overflow in the next two days in a row.

When the time comes, once the embankment bursts, the grain they have worked so hard to grow will be lost.

The family of all ages, children are watching such a little feeding.

When I think of this, I don't know how many people are worried about their hearts, and they can't sleep at all for half a month.

Now I see that the rain finally has the meaning of stopping, and I see that the water of the cloud river is still mild.

The people were overjoyed, and they bowed down directly after seeing Lin Cao.

They all know that this Yunjiang River can experience the rainstorm that has not been seen for decades without overflowing the embankment, which means that they will not have to worry about it in the future, and the rain will overflow the embankment in the future.

And they can live here for generations to come, and they don't have to worry about the day when the sky gets angry and rolls up all their food.

Thinking of this, they were even more grateful to Lin Gu.

Lin Gu looked at the black pressure in front of him and knelt down, and his nose was slightly sour.

What kind of people have been tormented by this flood are so excited at this time.

"Everyone, please get up, it is not my credit to control the water of the Yunjiang River, but it is the planning of Lu Chensheng and Lu Xiucai of Fufeng City that has the Yunjiang River today."

Lin Gu stepped forward to help the people in front of him, and then hurriedly spoke.

The credit this time is naturally incomparably great, but Lin Gu doesn't want to take the credit.

He is already old, and those colleagues who were officials in the same dynasty as him also died that year.

He is much less ambitious, and now he only thinks about being able to make this Jiang country better, so that the shame does not happen.

The ambitious colleagues of the year are no longer there, which makes him drink a few glasses from time to time to pay tribute to his colleagues.

Now that he sees a Lu Chensheng with such a talent, he will not take the credit for Lu Chensheng, but will try his best to support Lu Chensheng to take the position.

Such a capable minister, if he can serve the country, is much better than him, an old guy.

And Lu Chensheng is still young, such a capable minister, I think he can do a lot for Jiang Guo.

There are too many corpses in the court, and there is too much lack of capable people like Lu Chensheng.

When the people heard this, they looked at each other and kowtowed to Lin Gu heavily.

"We know that the diversion of Yunjiang is all the idea of Lu Gongzi, but the person recommended by Lord Lin also has the credit of Lord Lin, and we have not thanked the wrong person!"

At that time, when the excavation was diverted, there were strong men listening to Lu Chensheng's orders, and the people knew that most of the credit here belonged to Lu Chensheng.

But the people who were personally invited by the governor also seemed to them to have the governor's credit in this.

Lin Gu was dumbfounded when he heard this, and then hurriedly helped these people up one by one.

"Don't be like this, since this official eats the court's money, he should do his duty and share the worries and solve problems for the people."

When the people heard this, their hearts were immediately moved.

The flood has been raging for a long time, and the people sent by the imperial court have come and gone for dozens of years, and they have gradually lost confidence.

And now, such a scourge has finally been solved, and they can live and work here in peace and contentment in the future, and the court finally did not give up on them, and sent a capable minister to control the water.

Finally appeased everyone, Lin Gu took a closer look at Yunjiang after dismissing everyone.

Only then did I find that the water of the outer river seemed to be galloping with thousands of troops and horses, and the momentum was extremely magnificent.

Relatively speaking, Neijiang is different.

Even though it has risen a lot, the flowing river is still moving slowly like a gentle woman.

Seeing such a scene, Lin Gu's heart was slightly relieved, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Come on, carry the horse! I'm going to report the good news myself! ”

Lin Gu knew that the Yunjiang flood was completely solved, and now he wanted to personally report the good news to Emperor Jiang, and by the way, he wanted to recommend Lu Chensheng to Emperor Jiang.

How can such a good and talented person just be discarded?

As for what Lu Chensheng said before, he was not prepared to abide by it.

In Lin Gu's opinion, Lu Chensheng is just too young, so he doesn't have too many thoughts about serving the country for the official.

But when Lu Chensheng is more mature, he will have a strong desire to repay him.

When the guards heard this, they hurriedly moved a fast horse.

Lin Gu turned over and got on his horse, regardless of the muddy shoes, and the horse ran towards the distance.

The guards on the side hurriedly drove their horses to follow, "My lord, did you run the wrong way?" This is not the direction to the imperial capital, right? ”

When the guards saw the direction, they were all stunned for a moment.

"That's right, this official needs to go to report the good news to Lu Chensheng, this Yunjiang has been governed in his hands, and he should go to thank him."

After speaking, Lin Gu threw another horsewhip.

When the guards heard this, they immediately stopped talking, and could only follow behind Lin Gu and hurry towards Fufeng City.
