"I've seen Lu Gong!"

Lin Zhao respectfully saluted Wen Yanbo, talking about the elders and young, Wen Yanbo is an elder; In terms of official positions, the Minister of Literature can serve as the general judge of the Daimyo Mansion and the Xuanfu Envoy of Hebei Road; As for the title, Wen Yanbo was named the Duke of Luguo as the prime minister, while Lin Zhao was only the Marquis of Weiyuan. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info With his current status, he should pay a grand visit to Xianggong Wen no matter what.

Of course, in fact, Lin Zhao's identity is extremely noble. But now it's a secret, and it has to be kept low-key. Moreover, even as a prince, it seems reasonable to salute a highly respected minister like Wen Yanbo. Let's all think of it as Corporal Lixian! What's more, Wen Xianggong is also the figure he urgently needs to woo.

Wen Yanbo recognized Lin Zhao, and when Lin Zhao argued fiercely in the court for the Ayun case, Wen Xianggong was in his eyes. Although I didn't meet many times after that, I was still quite impressed by this rare young man.

"Wei Yuanhou doesn't have to be polite!" Lin Zhao called Duke Lu to show respect, and Wen Yanbo was a casual guest, and he was also commensurate with his title, and he did not have the slightest contempt for this junior.

The title explains the thing, except for those children of the Zhao family, or the descendants of meritorious heroes, but they are born hereditary or graceful. Others want to be knighted, and it's really not easy. Wen Yanbo has served as a Zaifu for more than ten years, and only after three dynasties can he be qualified to be named a national prince.

This can also be regarded as the Song Dynasty's attention and favor to Zaifu Wenchen, such as Kou Zhun was named Lai Guogong (posthumously sealed), Fu Bi was already Zheng Guogong, and even Han Xianggong, who had just been dismissed from the Daimyo's Mansion, still retained the title of Wei Guogong. But they have a common characteristic, they are all in the age of sixties, and they are all senior. It took a lifetime to get a knighthood.

Lin Zhao was different. Although the marquis is a rank lower. But Lin Zhao is only in his early twenties. Can the twenty-year-old Hou Ye of the Great Song Dynasty have a second? When you are a person, those rich and noble children who attack the lord are a different matter. In terms of merit alone, being a marquis is already a very lofty status. Some prime ministers, or powerful ministers in the DPRK and China, and ministers who have made contributions, have not received such honors. For example, Wang Anshi, in the end, only had the title of Earl of Linchuan.

Weiyuan Marquis Lin Zhao, that title is a wonderful flower of the Great Song Dynasty, which makes people surprise and envy. It is also something that even a transcendent existence like Wen Yanbo does not dare to despise!

"Brother Wen Shi is good!"

I saw Wen Jifu behind him. Lin Zhao immediately said hello to him. Unexpectedly, Wen Yanbo took this son with him. is so good, he has some friendship with Wen Jifu, and with him, it is much easier to have a relationship with Wen Xianggong.

"Brother Dongyang!" Wen Jifu returned the salute, which was completely the etiquette between ordinary friends, but it also meant a little respectful. After all, he is still white, and Lin Zhao is already a squire and a marquis.

"Is it going well on the Wen Highway?"

Wen Yanbo laughed and said: "Tholin Shilang, your blessing, Hebei Road is gradually regaining tranquility, and the road is smooth!" ”

"Wen Gongyan is serious. If you don't give up, call me Dongyang! Lin Zhao was in front of Wen Yanbo. He is very low-key and humble. Brothers and friends, or respecting elders to be commensurate with words, is the habit of ancient people. Lin Dongyang hopes to get closer to Wen Yanbo in this way.

"Then the old man is welcome!" Wen Yanbo is very easy-going, and a good relationship with Lin Zhao is what he wants. However, at least so far, he did not realize that Lin Zhao had the same purpose, and had ulterior motives.

Lin Zhao said with a smile: "It's good that Gong Wen is here, Hebei Road is waiting for you to preside over the overall situation!" ”

"Alas, isn't Dongyang doing a good job? In just over a month, Hebei Road is as calm as this, which ordinary people can't do. Wen Yanbo sighed deeply, and at this time, it seemed that he could understand Lin Zhao's hot hand in Bozhou. Although the knife can play a certain deterrent role, where is the ruthlessness of the trampling of the chaotic horse?

Lin Zhao's move made the officials of all sizes on Hebei Road afraid. The ghost can't afford to mess with the squire of the forest! If the risk fails, and he catches it, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Who wants to be left without bones?

By the skin of one's teeth?

Is there any luck in front of Lin Shilang? With Han Xianggong's comprehensive protection, he was still recognized by Lin Shilang and severely punished mercilessly, can others get away with it? The danger of leaving no bones is something that no one dares to try lightly. As a result, the officialdom atmosphere on Hebei Road suddenly became much better.

There are far fewer cases of dereliction of duty, enriching their own pockets, and abusing their power for personal gain, especially in the matter of river control, and the officials have cooperated like never before. There are no obstacles, no destruction, and the efficiency of river control is unprecedented. The fact that the breach can be blocked so quickly also has something to do with it.

Wen Yanbo had a feeling that this time the river control should be successful, and Zhao Ji chose Lin Zhao to be responsible. Then the solution and tools and materials are important, but more importantly, the means of people. Lin Zhaozhi's ruthlessness and tough wrists are really rare. Is it out of this consideration that he stampeded on a horse in Bozhou?

I didn't know how to answer my son's question before, but after seeing Lin Zhao, Wen Yanbo seemed to suddenly figure it out, maybe there was such a reason!

But in reality? Wen Xianggong couldn't see through Lin Shilang for a while, so that's all he could think of for the time being.

"Hey, it's just a coincidence!"

It's not a coincidence, if it weren't for Han Qi's stupid nephew who told the truth, where would it be so easy for Lin Zhao to establish his authority? Wen Yanbo smiled and said in a low voice: "Dongyang's efficiency is also high, I heard that the break has been blocked?" But because of the new material of cement? The old man really wants to take a look! ”

At the mention of the break, Lin Zhao's heart moved, what does Wen Yanbo mean by this? Could it be that he was dissatisfied with his early blockade? Not really, right?

"Ha, cement concrete is one thing, just when the water receded, it was a rare dry period, and with the cooperation of the local military and civilians, it was successful." Lin Zhao pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "Regarding the governance of the river, boy, I also crossed the river by feeling the stones, and I came randomly, and I have always wanted to ask Gong Wen for advice." It's a pity that in a hurry, I didn't take care of it, and I asked Gong Wen for advice! ”

This is very indirect to explain to Wen Yanbo, I think Wen Xianggong can understand it, as for what kind of reaction it is, people will wait and see?

Wen Xianggong. Don't let me down!

Wen Yanbo is an old man. How can you not understand what Lin Zhao meant? Immediately smiled: "Dongyang doesn't have to be careful. The opportunity to control the river is rare and cannot be delayed, and you have done a good job. Besides, the old man doesn't have much experience in river management, and your plans are good, so you can listen to the opinions of the plumbers more, and then just let it go. You are an arbitrary minister who governs the river, and the old man listens to the matter of governing the river. And full support. ”

"In this way, then thank you Gong Wen!" Lin Zhao is sure that Wen Yanbo is definitely not the kind of person who has a small belly, and he will not worry about such a major matter as controlling the river.

"As it should be!" Wen Yanbo smiled and said, "The dam is closed, so the next step is dredging?" ”

"Not bad!" Lin Zhao nodded and said: "Blocking the breach is only one aspect, the most important thing is that dredging cannot be ignored either." If the river is not dredged before the next year's floods arrive, there is still a danger of breaching. ”

"Isn't there cement? I heard that this new material was built, where is it solid? Wen Jifu interjected and asked.

Lin Zhao said with a smile: "The concrete made of cement plus steel and stone is indeed very strong, but all the channels of the Yellow River from Sanmenxia need to be reinforced, and it is by no means possible to complete in a short time."

Conservative estimates. If you want to reinforce the entire embankment with concrete, you need at least five to ten years of full effort. There are also a lot of financial, material and human resources ......"

"That's it!" Wen Jifu was suddenly gloomy, many people thought the same as him, thinking that with concrete, the Yellow River embankment would be really solid, and there would be no more problems, but in fact, there are still many problems, good things are grinding, where is it so easy!

"That's not all!" Lin Zhao said: "Actually, the main problem of flooding in the Yellow River is soil erosion in the upper reaches of Shaanxi/Road, where the loess is relatively loose and flows into the Yellow River with heavy rain, resulting in serious sediment accumulation. It is difficult to change this situation in the short term, and the only thing that can be done now is to dredge the river as much as possible, otherwise even if the concrete embankment does not collapse, the dam will overflow.

Therefore, the only way now is to dredge the river and strengthen the embankment at the key points, hoping to survive the past few years and manage the Yellow River step by step. ”

"Hear me? There are many ways to govern the river, the sages have words, you must apply what you have learned, you have read so much, have you ever known this? Wen Yanbo turned around and taught Wen Jifu beside him again.

"Yes!"

Wen Jifu is also deeply touched, and he always felt that only a subset of scriptures and history, poetry and etiquette are elegant, and people with lofty ideals should learn. As for water conservancy projects, they are all inferior and cannot be seen at all. But after meeting Lin Zhao, Wen Jifu had a new understanding.

Father was right, this is to apply what you have learned! In the past, the river control could not be successful, probably because there were many ministers who did not understand water conservancy at all, only knew how to quote scriptures, and intrigue and intrigued, which was as professional as Lin Zhao?

Some people often compliment themselves as young talents, but compared to Lin Zhao, they are really nothing! Wen Jifu only felt quite embarrassed! At the same time, he was also very curious, how could Lin Zhao be so powerful, he knew everything, he was really an all-round talent!

"Dongyang, if it's convenient, I want Ji Fu to follow you to see the process of river control, so that this kid can have a long experience. If there is anything that can be used by him, he can also be experienced. ”

Lin Zhao didn't expect that Wen Yanbo would suddenly make such a request, let's just call it a request! It is normal for powerful people to install their nephews, but in this era, can scholars see such engineering things as river control? Wen Yanbo is even willing to let his son do this, it's really ......

To be honest, Lin Zhao was a little surprised!

Wen Yanbo said earnestly: "The old man understands now, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books, but it is better to do one thing than to travel thousands of miles!" Even if he is a Jinshi with the title of the gold list, his knowledge is very good, but he is a mess of doing things, and his ability is not at all, because he has exercised too little. ”

It turned out to be this purpose? It's really hard for the minister to have such a vision, which is already much more enlightened than other people in this era. Wen Jifu is his most valued son, who has good knowledge and keeps educating by his side, and he will definitely be able to thrive in officialdom in the future. If you don't have the ability to do things, you will inevitably rise in the future.

Wen Xianggong's vision is very long-term!

Lin Zhao naturally wanted to agree to this little thing, and he couldn't ask for it. To have such an opportunity to get closer to Wen Yanbo, Lin Zhao couldn't mention how happy he was. Especially this is what Wen Xianggong took the initiative to mention, he can save a lot of tongues, and there will be fewer traces that can be co-opted, everything is gentle and drizzly, and it will go naturally.

Everything was difficult at the beginning, but this time, because of Wen Xianggong's initiative, the beginning became very smooth.

"It is my honor to be able to do things with Brother Jifu!" Lin Zhao immediately happily agreed, not to mention how beautiful it was.

Tie your son to me, or your best son, it's hard for you not to help me!

Wen Yanbo's idea is very simple, he just wants his son to experience it and learn some advantages from Lin Zhao. At the same time, he believes that Lin Zhao is deeply favored by Zhao Zhao, and maintains a good relationship with Lin Zhao, and can also indirectly maintain a good relationship with the official family. Therefore, there will be such a move again, how does he know Lin Zhao's special identity and Lin Zhao's ulterior motives.

Someone else's "pit" has just been dug and it is too late to lay a trap, but he is already impatient to take the initiative to jump in! Some things coincide like this, maybe this is the so-called providence!

"By the way, Dongyang's actions on Hebei Road are still going well? Have you encountered any difficulties lately? Wen Yan asked angrily: "Now that the old man is here, if there is anything you need help with, just ask, the old man has tried his best to help!" The implication is actually to ask whether Han Qi's protΓ©gΓ© is obedient and has any misdeeds. In fact, he was also asking Han Qi if he would fight back, these were not only related to Lin Zhao, but also related to whether he could successfully take over Hebei and fulfill the expectations of the official Zhao Ji.

Haha, what do you really want, Wen Xianggong is really a good person! Lin Zhao sighed with emotion, and said in his heart: Wen Xianggong, then I'm not welcome!

"How?"

Lin Zhao looked embarrassed at this time, and said slowly: "There was no trouble before, but there is something really tricky at the moment, and it may become a trouble in the future, I just want to ask Xianggong Wen for advice!" ”

"What's the matter, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" The corners of Wen Yanbo's mouth moved, and he said, how can Hebei Road be completely calm? This is not Han Xianggong's style at all!

"That's ......"

Lin Zhao shook his head secretly, Xiao Guanyin, I'm sorry! This is also for the good of your children, and the matter of face can no longer be taken into account. I can only promise you to send them back safely. (To be continued......)
