The court asked hundreds of officials, but Zhao Zhen did not tell the truth about the food crisis in Tokyo. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was only declared to the outside world that the water level of the Bianhe River had dropped, which was not conducive to the transportation of boats, and let the ministers think about how to deal with it.

The boat sails on the water, and the boat runs aground if the water is shallow, which is a truth since ancient times, and it is also a common sense that everyone knows.

The only way to solve the problem is to fill the canal with water.

Water injection is nothing more than two roads, one is God to save face, and the next heavy rain is to replenish water; The other diverts water from a nearby river.

However, after nearly half a year of lack of rain and drought, even if we do not consider whether the water diversion project is protracted and feasible, the water source alone is helpless.

In addition to the four major rivers such as Bian and Cai, the only major river near Tokyo seems to be the Yellow River, but the water of the Yellow River is ...... It seems unrealistic.

First, the water level of the Yellow River is also very low, and secondly, the sediment of the Yellow River is too heavy, and the canal must be seriously silted up after the flood, which is completely to quench thirst, and may even lead to a more serious situation.

So......

In the eyes of the officials, it seems that the only way is to pray for rain!

This emperor Zhao Zhen has already done, in view of the long arid world, this time to ask for rain is not in the customary, the eldest princess of the Wei Kingdom Qing Xiu will be spiritual, but in Xiangguo Temple.

Xiangguoji Temple is the largest temple in Tokyo, and the emperor chose to pray for rain here, which shows the importance he attaches to this matter.

As for the hundred officials, there seems to be no solution for the time being.

Some officials are shrewd people, and they see that this matter is extraordinary, and the seriousness of the provincial matter, they dare not talk nonsense outside, and they also want to share the worries of the officials, but unfortunately they have been thinking about it for a long time and have no countermeasures.

There are also people who cover up the facts after returning home, and change the law to ask their staff or close relatives for advice, but unfortunately there is no reliable way for the time being.

In this way, Zhao Zhen was obviously a little depressed.

The matter of partiality is a first-class secret of the imperial court, and only the ministers and some key figures know about it, and it is even more difficult to tell outsiders about the embarrassment and melancholy of being the emperor.

Although Zhao Zhen didn't say it, others might not be able to see it.

Especially the pillow person who shares the same bed and has a delicate mind, Zhang Meiren can clearly feel that Zhao Zhen was absent-minded and full of sorrow when he came to visit him.

Even if Zhao Zhen himself thinks that he is very good at covering it up, but in front of Zhang Meiren, who has been with him for the longest time and is the most familiar with her, there is nothing to hide.

What the emperor is worried about, it is easy to find out, Empress Cao can do it, and Zhang Meiren can also do it.

The canal is shallow and difficult for boats?

His Majesty the Emperor was worried about this, and the court officials seemed to be helpless about it, and it was said that His Majesty was going to fast and go to Xiangguoji Temple to pray for rain, and he made a point of telling himself that he might not be able to come for a few days.

What is the reason for this? Zhang Meiren didn't know, she only knew that this matter was extremely serious. As long as it is successfully resolved, it must be a great achievement.

Credit for this achievement......

I must be powerless, where does a woman understand the matter of river work and luck, not to mention that being pregnant now is the most taboo thing to worry about.

But if the Zhang family thought of a way to solve the crisis and trouble for the emperor, what would the result be?

I was already much worse than the queen's family background, and I heard that the queen's cousin recently went to quell the rebellion, and it will be a great achievement when he comes back, and the prestige of the Cao family will definitely be better than in the past.

As a result, the gap between herself and Empress Cao will become bigger and bigger, which is a situation that Zhang Meiren does not want to see at all. Therefore, his mother's family must rise as much as possible, and only by showing their talents and making meritorious contributions can the emperor have the opportunity to promote them for his own sake.

So Zhang Meiren quietly sent a letter to her mother's family, asking her family to find a way to find a solution.

Zhang Meiren's uncle and father, brothers Zhang Yaoqing and Zhang Yaozuo, received the news and were also a little troubled, and they vaguely heard about it.

But they didn't take it to heart until they saw their daughter's letter that the brothers clearly realized that this was extraordinary.

However, the problem of the water level of the Bianhe River, the emperor, the ministers and many craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry were helpless, how could they solve it themselves?

"Looking at Your Majesty's meaning now, it seems that no one in the court has a solution for the time being, so I brainstormed."

"yes, brainstorming...... We also send people to the people to look for it, maybe there will be smart people who can think of a way, and then we will spend a lot of money to find ......"

"This method works!" Zhang Yaozuo nodded and said, "I will send someone to the city to find some wise people to see if there is any clever way...... And it had to be before the court and others found it. ”

Zhang Yaoqing said: "Well, I will tell Xifu them, there are some young talents in the Four Gate Pavilion, maybe there are wonderful ideas." ”

"What my brother said is very true, this is a good idea, I hope I can find this method, so that I can help my mother."

Zhang Yaozuo has no ability, so he often feels guilty in his heart and can't give his daughter enough help, but now that he has such an opportunity, he naturally attaches great importance to it.

……

There is no impermeable wall in the world, and the court asks hundreds of officials to have their own wind and grass, not to mention that there are many discerning people among the people, who can always detect the abnormality.

The water of the Bianhe River is shallow, there are not many large ships navigable, and most of the helpers on the docks are idle, and they can detect these anomalies with a few glances.

What does this mean? Or what could it mean?

On the bank of the Bianhe River, in the restaurant facing Liu's shop, a pair of eyes behind the bamboo curtain emitted a deep light, and then turned around and wrote hard.

Soon a letter was sent hundreds of miles away, where there was a city called Nanyang, and there was a nearby place called Longzhong.

"That's right, this is here, Zhuge Kongming met Liu Bei for the first time back then, and left Longzhong right." A young man with a lupine scarf looked at the ruins that had long disappeared, leaving Longzhong alone in the wilderness, and felt a lot of emotion.

"It seems that this place is still called Wollongong, although Zhuge Kongming is extremely intelligent, but he is obviously just a strategist, and it seems to be too much to call it Wolong."

The person who spoke was a tall man, who was standing in the restaurant on the bank of the Bianhe River that day, peeking at the Liu family's shop.

"Wolong ......" For some reason, the man in the lupine scarf heard this word, and involuntarily pulled the corners of his mouth, his expression was a little strange, but he didn't say anything.

"Childe, the subordinates are incompetent, and Bianliang's affairs can be done instinctively......"

"That's it, it's just a coincidence, the place is still there, there will always be a way in the future."

"Xie Gongzi forgiveness!" Tan Ye said softly: "There is news today that Shao Chong once went to Xuzhou to test, but was blocked by Wang Juzheng, where should he go now?" ”

"Where?" The man in the lupine scarf groaned softly for a moment, and at this time, a cronie came to report: "Bianliang urgent report." ”

After the man opened it and looked at it, he snorted and laughed: "Where to go, there is an answer!" ”
