Emperor Hongzhi summoned a group of civil and military ministers, but did not find an effective solution to solve the drought in many places in Guanzhong.

Either someone doesn't speak, or someone speaks in the end, either letting Emperor Hongzhi issue an edict for himself, or asking Emperor Hongzhi to organize a prayer for rain.

didn't find a suitable way, and in the end he could only announce his retreat.

After retiring from the dynasty, Emperor Hongzhi called the three scholars of the cabinet and Zhu Houzhao to the warm pavilion.

No matter what Emperor Hongzhi chooses to do, he has to think of some solution, and it is not appropriate to be indifferent.

As soon as he entered the Warm Pavilion, Emperor Hongzhi took the lead in asking, "Prince, what solution do you have?" ”

From beginning to end, Zhu Houzhao was opposed to the edict of self-sin and the organization of asking for rain.

Naturally, he should be the first to ask him how to solve the problem.

Zhu Houzhao didn't think about it, and said: "Father, there are also clouds in the land where the drought is encountered, Xie Wu has always had many methods, you should ask him." ”

Originally, Emperor Hongzhi was quite satisfied with Zhu Houzhao's performance.

After these remarks, Emperor Hongzhi was disappointed, and he didn't want to solve it himself, but only wanted to ask people, can this be a big deal?

Emperor Hongzhi said with a calm face: "I am asking about you." ”

Zhu Houzhao is not stupid, Emperor Hongzhi is angry, he can still see it, and his answer is not wrong.

Alas, really, how could he, the father, become more and more moody.

Zhu Houzhao was a little lacking in confidence, and replied: "Your Majesty, Xie Wu said that if you want to strategize, you have to know how to use people if you want to win thousands of miles away, Xie Wu has a lot of ideas, and there is nothing wrong with looking for him to think of a way." ”

Zhu Houzhao also knew that what he said was a little inappropriate, and he kept secretly glancing at his father when he said it.

Looking at his father's increasingly gloomy face, Zhu Houzhao hurriedly changed his words: "Erchen thinks that water should be diverted for irrigation, and he can irrigate as much as he can, so that the loss can be minimized." ”

Although Zhu Houzhao said more about his son's goodness, Xie Qian also had to say a few fair words.

"There is a great drought in the world, and it spreads for several miles, so this irrigation method may not solve many problems."

Zhu Houzhao stared at Xie Qian with a resentful expression, this palace is grateful for your family, can't you stand here in this palace and say a few words?

Xie Qian glanced at Zhu Houzhao's expression, but as if he hadn't seen it, he didn't even have a straight eye.

As soon as Xie Qian's words came out, Liu Jian then echoed: "This is true, but if there is no way, it can only be so, in addition to diversion canal irrigation, you can also add water for irrigation, you can only minimize the loss to the greatest extent." ”

Immediately afterwards, Li Dongyang said: "The minister seconded the proposal, in order to prevent the autumn famine, it is now necessary to step up the storage of grain, and send people to buy surplus grain from the south to the north to spend this famine year is the most effective way." ”

The conclusions given by the three cabinet scholars are the safest way to deal with the famine at present.

Fortunately, last year's wind and rain were smooth and I was able to catch the autumn.

Otherwise, we would have to starve to death by this time.

After a while, Emperor Hongzhi pulled a smile and asked, "Xie Qing, what will your kid do?" ”

Xie Qian shook his head and replied, "I can't think of it. ”

If Emperor Hongzhi wants to know this question, he can find out casually, which is much easier than asking Xie Qian.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said with some expectation: "Xie Zhi, that kid always has a lot of methods, I hope he can think of a suitable solution for this drought, that kid will start stockpiling grain early in the morning, and it may not be a problem for those grains to feed the existing people in the clouds." ”

At the same time, there were many people in the pottery workshop in the clouds.

These people were armed with pickaxes, hoes, and all the other guys who could take advantage of them, and they surrounded the workshop.

The original labor of the pottery workshop was either digging ditches or digging wells during this time, and there was really no manpower, so all the work was stopped.

Now the only people in the ceramic workshop are the gatekeepers.

With such a momentum, the gatekeepers did not dare to delay, and reported the news to Wang Shouren as soon as possible.

Xie Zhi's face has not been seen for several days.

During these days, all matters in the county were handled by the county prince Shouren and the teacher Tang Yin.

Wang Shouren and Tang Yin stared day and night at the ditch and the well.

Hearing the news, Wang Shouren had to put down what he was doing and hurried to the ceramic workshop.

The current ceramic workshop is only temporarily suspended, and when the drought eases, this workshop will have to come in handy.

After Wang Shouren arrived and introduced his identity, he said menacingly: "No matter if you are a county magistrate or a magistrate, your workshop must be demolished today." ”

Wang Shouren didn't expect that these people would make trouble for such reasons.

Wang Shouren thought that even if someone came to find trouble, it should be for the irrigation of the Liuhe River.

After all, the current drought is not a place in the clouds, and if the water is intercepted in the clouds, then the downstream states and counties will have no water available.

After being stunned for a moment, Wang Shouren smiled slightly and asked, "I don't know where you are from?" What is the reason for this? ”

Whether to do or not to do, you still have to figure out the situation.

When the situation is clear, you can decide whether to do it or not.

The leader spoke unreservedly about the situation, and said: "The villain is from Daying County, and this drought has a lot to do with this ceramic workshop..."

That's the reason.

Can a single ceramic workshop affect the drought in the county?

Wang Shouren's face did not change much, and said: "I don't know why this is said, the drought is by no means a small ceramic workshop can decide, I hope you can have a rational judgment." ”

Since these people dared to find Yunzhong directly, they firmly believed that there was no doubt about this.

Wang Shouren's few words could not be convincing.

A cadre of people insisted on refusing to leave, and the leader shouted even more, shouting: "If the county is unwilling to demolish it by itself, the villain will do it himself." ”

Is this a chicken blood? How can Wang Shouren say that he is also a member of the imperial court, and a few ordinary people dare to be so tough?

Since he couldn't understand the reasoning, Wang Shouren could only come hard, beckoned to one person beside him, and said: "Take the order to mobilize a hundred households in Yunzhongwei to come here to guard, this is the public property of the county, if anyone dares to collide, take it all." ”

These people were probably brainwashed, and before Yun Zhongwei arrived, they rushed into the workshop.

When Wang Shouren came from the ditch, he only brought two servants, and counting the ordinary laborers who had stayed in the workshop to guard the door, it was only four or five people.

It's just four or five people, and there is obviously no room for parry to deal with four or five outcasts.

Soon, these people rushed into the workshop and smashed it into the workshop.

Fortunately, Yun Zhongwei arrived quickly, and the losses he suffered were within an acceptable range.

The purpose of training Yun Zhongwei is to deal with the arrogant and unreasonable Tatars.

In the opponent, there are only ordinary people with hoes, and with a little effort, the problem can be solved.

Soon, these forty or fifty people were taken down, and all of them were detained in the county cells.

This cell is also the first time that Xie Zhizhi has been locked up so many people here.

After solving this problem, Wang Shouren returned to the place where he dug the ditch with his injuries.

Tang Yin, who was on the side, looked at the traces on Wang Shouren's face, and asked, "Shouren, what's wrong?" ”

Wang Shouren didn't hide it, and told the reason for the incident.

"What does the drought have to do with the pottery workshops?"

"It should be someone who deliberately spreads rumors and demagogues, I should speed up here, the problem of the drought is solved, such rumors can be self-defeating, since these forty or fifty people are looking for trouble, more people will come, and the workshop is there and has been sent to guard in the clouds, it should not be much of a problem."

Wang Shouren didn't stay in the ditch for long, and another official came over and reported: "The magistrate of Shanyin has come to find the magistrate." ”

Now Xie Zhi is tinkering with cement and can't be disturbed.

Therefore, if there is a matter, it can only be solved by Wang Shouren.

Wang Shouren replied: "Shanyin is in the lower reaches of the Liuhe River, come here at this time, I am afraid that it is for the matter of the Liuhe River, go down to see him, you can watch the things here." ”

Tang Yin is in charge of the county middle school, he is very high, although his position is low, but he is very respected, and his words are still very effective.
