Pengcheng of Wei State.

This was once the richest piece of land in the Song Kingdom after Taocheng, but because of the rain for several months, the land within a radius of 100 miles from Pengcheng has been soaked by floods for several months.

Now that the people have fled in all directions, floating corpses are everywhere, and after Wei Si received this shocking news, he also quickly rushed over from Daliang.

Because he wanted to speed up his journey, Wei Si also only brought Zilian and Zhang Yi, as well as a few guards, and hurried over in a carriage.

After arriving near a high ground near Pengcheng, seeing that the carriage could no longer move forward, Wei Si had to order someone to stop the carriage and walk up to the high ground with Zilian and Zhang Yi.

Wei Si couldn't help but say:

"I didn't expect that after this Pengcheng returned to my Great Wei, it would suffer such a big flood, could it be that I am really widowed and I have no way to cause this?"

On the side, Zi Lian grabbed Wei Si's arm and leaned on him:

"Husband, how can you say such a thing, everyone in the world knows that you are a wise king, this Pengcheng flood is a natural disaster, but it is not something that can be done by man!"

Wei Si continued:

"But the priest told the widow that the natural disaster must be caused by a man-made disaster, and although Pengcheng used to be flooded frequently, it was not as serious as it is now, causing the entire city to be in water!"

Zhang Yi also sighed at this time:

"Yes, it's hard to say whether it's a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, after all, this continuous rainstorm, no matter where it falls, it has to be flooded!"

Wei Si asked Peng Chengling Cai Duo, who had just walked over on the side:

"In the past few months since Pengcheng was flooded, have the people been settled? How many losses are there, exactly? ”

Cai Duo replied:

"Because the rainstorm was so sudden, and no one thought it would rain like this at the time, the livestock were washed away, and many people were drowned because they didn't have time to flee, but most of the people moved safely to the neighboring counties under the arrangement of the minister."

Wei Si nodded:

"That's fine!"

Then he asked:

"Then you asked the diviner to do the math, why is the flood in Pengcheng so serious this time?"

Cai Duo replied:

"Please!"

Wei Si asked:

"What is the result of the divination?"

Cai Duo immediately knelt on the ground:

"The minister doesn't dare to say, he doesn't dare to say it!"

Wei Si was a little angry:

"The widow asked you something, and you still didn't dare to say it? Tell the widow the truth, tell the truth! ”

Cai Duo was so frightened that his face turned pale:

The hexagram master said...... Say...... Said that this time the Pengcheng flood and the king, you and the king of Han transported here together...... Jiuding related! ”

Wei Si was taken aback:

"What? How could the flood be related to Jiuding? The widow discussed with King Han that Jiuding came to Pengcheng to suppress the flood in Pengcheng, is this town still a big taboo? ”

Cai Duo explains:

"The hexagram master said, Jiuding is the foundation of the stability of the world, but the king and the king of Han, forcibly transported this Jiuding to Pengcheng, resulting in Jiuding moving, the foundation is chaotic, everything has advantages and disadvantages, although Jiuding can suppress the water monster in order to achieve water control, but it can also create disasters!"

Wei Si asked:

"So what now? Is there a way for the hexagram master? ”

Cai Duo says:

"The hexagram master said that if you throw Jiuding in Surabaya, you can suppress the water monster in Surabaya, so that Pengcheng will not be flooded in the future!"

Wei Si remembered a historical record he had studied, in order to control the water, didn't the Song Kingdom borrow the Nine Dings from Zhou Tianzi to suppress the water monsters, and finally the Yuding was lost in the Surabaya River, so that the flood here was avoided? Could it be that he has to throw this Jiuding into the water today to avoid the flood in Pengcheng?

Thinking of this, Wei Si hurriedly asked Cai Duo:

"What you say is true?"

Cai Duo replied:

"How dare I, Cai Duo, deceive you, the king? What the hexagram master said was not heard by me Cai Duo alone, many people of Pengcheng were also present at that time! ”

Wei Si was actually a little reluctant to put this hard-won Jiuding in the river, after all, this matter was also very important, so he said to Cai Duo:

"This matter still has to be discussed, you can go back for the time being!"

After a while, a boat rowed not far away, and Wei Si took a boat with Zilian and Zhang Yi in the direction of the flooded Pengcheng.

At this time, in the entire Pengcheng City, the water had already overflowed most of the houses, and the things that were floating everywhere for the daily use of the people were also mixed with some rotten human and animal floating corpses, which made it smell of foul odor.

After Wei Si's boat reached a corner of the city, it did not advance further.

Looking at this tragic situation, Queen Zilian directly lay on Wei Si with tears:

"Husband, this ...... This flood is so cruel, so cruel! ”

Wei Si patted Zilian on the shoulder and comforted him:

"Lian'er, this is all providence, providence, the widow will govern the country well in the future, and will never let such a tragic situation happen again in my Great Wei territory!"

At this time, Wei Si suddenly heard a cough on the side, looked at it, and found that there was a pool of blood under his feet, Wei Si quickly let go of Zi Lian, walked over, and looked at Zhang Yi very worriedly:

"Zhang Xiang, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Yi coughed a few more times, wiped the bloodshot at the corner of her mouth with her sleeve, and obviously looked very pale:

"King, I'm Zhang Yi old... I'm old, and my body is indeed a little bad, not good! ”

Wei Si saw that Zhang Yi began to cough again, so he hurriedly called Zilian over and helped Zhang Yi together:

"Zhang Xiang, your body is like this, why didn't you tell the widow earlier? Why do you have to accompany the widow to travel thousands of miles to this Pengcheng? ”

Zhang Yi looked very uncomfortable:

"King, this trip to Pengcheng is related to your reputation in the hearts of the people of the world, even if I, Zhang Yi, die here, I must come to help you solve the flood in Pengcheng!"

At this time, Wei Si immediately ordered the boatman to start turning the bow of the boat, and went back to the vicinity to find a miracle doctor, and then said to Zhang Yi:

"Zhang Xiang, how can you do this? It's better to take you back to Daliang now, and then go to ask Bian Que and let him treat you, presumably with Bian Que's miracle doctor's technique, he will be able to cure Zhang Xiang! ”

Zhang Yi replied:

"When I came, I had already been diagnosed and treated by Bian Que's divine doctor, and the divine doctor said that my Zhang Yi had fallen ill into my lungs, and it was difficult for the gods to save me!"

Wei Si hurriedly asked:

"Did the Bian Que Divine Doctor say what kind of illness you have?"

Zhang Yi replied:

"Bian Que said that it was tuberculosis, and it should be that when the minister made Chu for the King of Qin before, he often lived in Chu, where the humidity and heat were unbearable!"

Then continues:

"So the minister wants to do his best for the king and for our Great Wei in these days of life, which can be regarded as making up for what I, Zhang Yi, am a Wei person, but I once helped Qin to plunder."

At the signal of Wei Si, Zilian also quickly took out his handkerchief and personally wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth for Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi suddenly stood up at this time and said:

"King, queen, I'm okay for the time being, it's okay, you might as well worry about me like this, let's think about it first, how to solve this Pengcheng flood!"

Seeing this, Wei Si had no choice but to say:

"Okay, then what do you say, how to solve this flood?"

Zhang Yi replied:

"The flood in Pengcheng seems to be caused by rain, but the minister thinks that it should actually come from Surabaya, and the source of Surabaya is Lu State, so this Pengcheng flood must be related to Lu State!"

Wei Si nodded:

"The widow has also thought about it, after all, this heavy rain began to fall from the Lu country at the earliest, causing almost all the vicinity of the lower reaches of Surabaya to be flooded, but the Lu country in the upper reaches is safe and sound, and the Lu country will definitely not be able to escape the relationship!"

Zhang Yi said again:

"The minister also sent someone to inquire, this time there was a flood around Surabaya, but Xiapi City, which should be flooded the most, is safe and sound at this time, don't you think it's a little strange, king?"

Wei Si replied:

"It's really a little strange, after all, this Picheng is downstream of Pengcheng, and the terrain is even more low-lying, so it's really unreasonable to say that it hasn't been flooded!"

Zhang Yi asked:

"Then the king, who is occupying Xiapi City now?"

Wei Si replied:

"Xiapi originally belonged to Chu, but last time Qi and Chu fought evil, wasn't it occupied by the Qi State?"

Zhang Yi nodded:

"Yes, but although the name of this Pi is Qi Zhan, the generals and soldiers who defend the city are all Lu people!"

Wei Si was a little puzzled:

"What's going on? Why did the Qi Congress let the Lu people guard Xiapi? ”

张意 says:

"After the defeat of the Qi State, and now the Zhao State is at war, the troops are already lacking, so let the Lu State manage this Pi on his behalf."

Wei Si suddenly understood at this time:

"Zhang Xiang, what do you mean, isn't this Pengcheng flood caused by the Lu State? Then it will quickly build a waterproof city in Xiapi City, so that all the vicinity of our Great Wei Surabaya will be flooded, but this Xiapi City is still safe and sound? ”

Zhang Yi continued:

"I heard about this flood, and Lu Guo also sent people to block the Surabaya River near Xiapi City, which made our Wei State Pengcheng flooded for so long, and the water has not been able to recede so far!"

Wei Si was very angry when he heard this:

"This Lu country is really bold... Dare to be bold, do you really think that the widow will not dare to take revenge on it now that he is cultivating soldiers? ”

Zhang Yi said again:

"But don't be too impulsive, the king, our Wei State can not move in the past two years, try not to move, we can find a way to transfer this Pengcheng flood to Xiapi City, so that we can take revenge?"

After all, Zilian is a good queen who cares about the people of the world, and when she heard Zhang Yi's suggestion, she immediately said:

"Isn't that right? Because of the flood, our Great Wei Peng City has already suffered countless casualties, and they are all innocent people, if we let Xiapi City also be flooded, the people there are also innocent! ”

Zhang Yi couldn't help but say:

"Queen, don't get involved in this, it's war after all...... War, in this era of strife among the nations, if you don't kill others, you can only wait for others to slaughter you, Pengcheng's flood is an example, Lu Guo didn't dare to offend my Great Wei openly, but he privately wanted to weaken my Great Wei with the flood, we use the way of others, and also govern their bodies, why not? ”
