Yang Cheng hadn't heard the previous one, and she couldn't answer it for a while, but she was quickly attracted by the beautiful sentences and vivid characters in the story.

Li Ning'er saw that she liked "The Story of the Stone", and volunteered: "Cousin Yangcheng, come here when you have time in the future, and I'll tell you." ”

Later, Empress Changsun saw that Yangcheng often ran to the Liang Palace, and became much more cheerful, and she also told some interesting things when she saw her.

She was secretly surprised, and said in her heart: "An Ning used to be a dull and stubborn character, but later became cheerful. Now Yangcheng has also become happy. Liang Wangfu is really attractive. ”

Let's talk about Li Ke, the king of Shu, he took Fang Yiai and others to the area where the Yellow River burst, and saw that a large area was submerged. The Yellow Flood Area is mainly a low-lying area in the Lanzhou area, and the long yellow water is almost endless.

Li Ke, the king of Shu, was in charge of disaster relief, he was very courageous, vigorous and resolute, and all relevant states and counties also actively cooperated, and it went smoothly at the beginning.

The Yellow River burst is a 240-meter embankment in Hongshan County. There has been no rain upstream these days, and the water level of the river has dropped a lot, which is a good opportunity to plug the leak.

At the suggestion of water conservancy officials of the Ministry of Industry, Li Ke mobilized 7,000 people to repair the embankment in lieu of relief.

Li Ke ate and lived on the construction site, and sometimes participated in the labor himself, winning unanimous praise from officials and ordinary people.

Seeing that the embankment was closing little by little, Li Ke, Fang Yiai, Chai Zhewei and others were very happy.

On this day, Li Ke personally supervised the construction on the construction site, and saw that only more than 30 meters were left at the place where the embankment broke and was about to close. At this pace, it can be done today.

Chai Zhewei said: "Your Highness, after the embankment is closed today, you can report to the emperor." You will rush back to Chang'an immediately, and the finishing work here will be done with me and Fang Gongzi. ”

That's when the unexpected happened. Sandbags and other materials used to gag the mouth have not been delivered for a long time. Soon, there was no expectation on the construction site.

After most of the levee was repaired, the breach became narrower and the current became more rapid. It must be blocked in one go, otherwise the breach will be enlarged again, and the previous efforts will be wasted.

Li Ke asked the officials of the Ministry of Industry who accompanied him and asked him to quickly find out the situation.

Soon the officer returned with a sad face. He said: "Your Highness, it's not good, the official in charge of procurement is missing, and all the funds for the project are gone." Probably they absconded with the money. ”

Li Ke's brain "buzzed", his eyes went dark, and he almost fell to the ground. He was careful everywhere on this trip, but he didn't expect the problem to appear here. At the critical moment when the embankment closed, the moth appeared.

Things will never be such a coincidence, now that I think about it, ninety percent of them are ghosts sent by the eldest grandson Wuji. He really underestimated the eldest grandson Wuji, he was too ruthless, in order to defeat Li Ke, he even disregarded the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.

The roof leak happened to rain overnight. At this moment, the official of the Ministry of Works, who was in charge of monitoring the water situation at the scene, ran and said, "Your Highness, no, the water level is rising. It must be raining upstream again. ”

Fang Yiai said anxiously: "Your Highness, hurry up and think of a way, the embankment can't be delayed." ”

Li Ke calmed down, he called Lanzhou Assassin Shi Gao Yongzhi, and said, "You send someone to lead the way." Bereaved and Zhewei, you will lead the troops to those suppliers, give them IOUs, and wait for the embankment to be blocked, and slowly settle the accounts for them. ”

Gao Yongzhi asked, "What if those businessmen don't agree?" ”

Li Ke said decisively: "Rob! If there are disobedient people, there will be no forgiveness! All the responsibility is borne by me alone. ”

Assassin Shi Gao Yongzhi and Fang Yiai and others hurried to do things.

Then, Li Ke came to the breach of the embankment, and he shouted to the people: "Fathers and fellow villagers, now, there is a little problem with the materials for the plugging, I have sent someone to pick it up, and it will be delivered soon."

The levee was about to close, but now the water level was starting to rise. We must keep the embankment and hold on until the materials arrive. ”

After saying that, he jumped directly into the water and used his body to block the impact of the current on the embankment. His guards hurriedly jumped down as well, holding hands with Li Ke to form a human wall.

When the people saw the noble prince doing this, they were all moved, and everyone shouted and jumped into the water together.

This situation and this scene moved the heavens and the earth.

Besides, Fang Yiai and others led the troops to Hongshan County to collect supplies. Some businessmen cooperate, and some don't. The officers and soldiers were already anxious, and it was inevitable that they would clash with them.

Fang Yiai and others couldn't take care of it so much, and they even bought and robbed, and finally collected the materials. They hurried to the construction site. Only then did I find that I couldn't find the delivery vehicle for a while.

Fang Yiai and others had no choice but to collect vehicles everywhere, and they made chickens and dogs jump.

Li Ke stood in the water, extremely anxious. Seeing that the water level is rising little by little, it is now at the neck level. However, supplies were still not delivered.

More than an hour has passed, and Li Ke is almost unable to hold on. However, there was a fire in his heart, that is, a strong desire for the throne, which supported him to persevere.

However, it was too late.

Without waiting for Fang Yiai and others to rush back, the water level had risen to a roofless position, and everyone had to give up. Everyone got out of the water.

Li Ke stood on the shore and watched as the flood tore open the newly built embankment little by little, and then broke the entire embankment. Li Ke knew that he was finished, his eyes were dark, and he fainted.

The people sent by the eldest grandson Wuji to spy on Li Ke hurriedly flew to Chang'an to report the news.

Soon after, Li Shimin received a letter of impeachment against Li Ke, and he was charged with many crimes: arson and robbery, wounding the people, embezzlement of disaster relief funds, dereliction of duty, and so on.

Although the people had some good feelings for Li Ke, they couldn't speak. Second, and most crucially, the levee was not saved. If the embankment is saved, then Li Ke's actions will be heroic, and the people will praise him.

However, if the embankment is not kept and the people are displaced, who is still in the mood to sing praises for Li Ke?

After Cen Wenwen got the news, he secretly regretted it in his heart, he really couldn't imagine that the eldest grandson Wuji's shot would be so vicious. He dared to gamble with the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.

When Li Su, the king of Liang, received the report, he was extremely angry in his heart, he dispelled the good thoughts of all normal people, and was determined to deal a severe blow to the enemy.

Li Ke failed, he was irrefutable. He could not explain the charges against him. If you want to completely clear yourself, it will take a long time, that is, in the future, he will be wronged, and he will no longer have a chance to be the crown prince.

Li Shimin had just disposed of Li Chengqian, and for Li Ke, he opened his net and demoted Li Ke to the king of Chuzhou County.

The eldest grandson Wuji and others did not have a deep hatred for Li Ke, and when they saw that he had lost the qualification to compete for the position of the crown prince, they no longer continued to attack him. Therefore, no one has any objections to Li Ke's punishment.

The eldest grandson Wuji eliminated Li Ke, who is his next target?
