(In the strong push, Xiao Jiu begged for a recommendation vote)

Not far out of the city, Lu Bing pulled the idiot, got off the carriage, and got on their horses. Their mounts, all prepared by the palace, are half-sized ponies.

But it's just riding a horse, and if you want to run a horse, you can't, just looking at Lu Dian's black face, the two of them don't dare to make a mistake. Rao is like this, and he also provoked Lu Dian's two big eyes, and scolded Lu Bing in a low voice as a "stinky boy".

Lu Bing was honest and looked angry.

Dao idiots know Lu Dian's scruples, if it is because of their horseback riding, arouse the interest of the prince, they also have to follow the horse, the prince and princess are not in front of him, who can stop it, it is a troublesome matter. However, he saw that although the prince was not very old, he was extremely disciplined. Even if a man brings a mount out, it has no intention of riding on the road.

Among the accompanying guards, the honor guards rode horses, but three hundred personal soldiers were foot soldiers. For this reason, the carriage did not travel very fast.

Forty-five miles of road, with a break of two quarters of an hour in the middle, it took more than two hours to reach the destination, Yuling Mountain in Chengnan Village.

The tomb of the king was built on the hillside, and even if the entire valley plain were submerged, it would not be able to flood here. The so-called fear of heavy rain hitting the king's tomb is just a pretext. The main thing is that it is located next to the valley plain, not far from several old dikes.

King Liang is the ninth son of Renzong, the king of Liang, at the age of nineteen on the domain of Anlu, died of illness at the age of thirty-one, called "Zhuang", so it is also called the king of Liang Zhuang.

King Liang passed away for more than 70 years, the tomb of King Liang still looks solemn, King Liang Zhuang and Princess Wei are buried here, and Mrs. Zhang is buried together.

The whole royal tomb is surrounded by a vermilion wall, one hundred and thirty zhang around, there are five rooms in the hall, six rooms in the east and west compartments, there are twenty rooms such as the kitchen of the gods, the room of the direct stay, the slaughtering room, etc., two stele pavilions, one residence of the inner official.

Eight hundred meters away from the tomb of King Liang, a small village is stationed, and there are eighty military academies guarding the tomb living in it. After the prince enjoyed the incense in the palace, he took people to the small village to rest.

Zhuang Tou has a martial arts position on his body, he is a hundred households, and when he heard that the prince was coming, he brought a few subordinates over. These 80 military households, after the death of King Liang, were ordered to guard the tomb, and have been passed down for several generations. More than 20 years ago, after King Xing took charge of Anlu, the two royal tombs in Anlu were taken care of by Xingwangfu, and these military households were also under the jurisdiction of Xingwangfu.

The prince came over, and he was also their little master, and the military households in the village were very respectful.

The chief official Yuan Zonggao had already ordered a few of his men to go down to business, that is, to inspect the embankment ten miles away; Lu Bing took the rest of the people here to protect the prince.

Counting the time, everyone can rest in Xiaozhuang for two hours, and after two hours, the large army will set off to return to the city.

The prince finally rode on his "red cloud", took a few companions and a few personal guards, and went out of Zhuangzi, wanting to shoot one or two.

Everyone had bows and arrows on their backs and wanted to try their hand at archery. After a year of study, even Lu Wenzhao can draw a bow and shoot arrows, but his strength is insufficient and his goal is not accurate.

The idea is very good, but after walking around Zhuangzi, there are occasional toads that pop up, and I really don't see pheasants and hares. The prince felt disappointed, but Lu Bing's face was full of excitement, pointing to the firewood pile at the entrance of the village, and said, "Your Highness, there, there are chickens there!" ”

Everyone followed his fingers and saw that there were indeed a few chickens there. But everyone rolled their eyes a lot, because it was a few chickens. When everyone followed the army into the village, they didn't see these chickens, probably because the movement was big, and they scared away these chickens; Now that it's quiet, they jump out again.

"It's fat!" Lu Bing looked at Shizi and said pitifully.

Although the prince has always been accustomed to landing Lu Bing, at this time he shook his head, dangled the reins, and took the lead in riding back to the temporary station.

Lu Bing rode a horse and followed behind, muttering in a low voice: "In the end, it is a living creature, and it is not shot in vain, just give silver." ”

Wang Qi happened to ride with him, and said with a smile: "You can afford to lose that person, Your Highness can't afford to lose that person." If you can't find the prey, you will shoot chickens at the entrance of the village, and make people laugh and lose their big teeth when they say it. ”

The temporary station was set up in the square in the middle of the Zhuangzi, because of the military households living here, this is the place where they usually go out to train soldiers. The small 400 or so people were settled, and it was full.

Because I already knew that I was going to eat outside, I had to eat before I set off, but it was also easy to eat.

The prince and his companions read here, and brought all the fine snacks and sauce meat prepared by the palace kitchen, and filled in a mouthful of things.

Two hours of recuperation time passed in a blink of an eye.

The people who had been sent to patrol the embankment did not return, so Yuan Zonggao discussed with Lu Dian and sent five more people on horseback to visit. The rest of the people returned from camp.

Compared to the fine weather in the morning, the weather in the afternoon suddenly became cool.

Even Lu Bing, who loves to move the most, refused to ride a horse anymore and got into the carriage of the prince.

When the group had reached the halfway point of the camp, they pulled out the men and horses who had been surveying the embankment twice before they turned around and caught up with the large army......

There are no robbers who don't open their eyes, who needs to stand up to protect the Lord: there are no natural disasters such as mudslides and floods, which make people panic; There is no beauty in distress, and she needs help. The road that everyone traveled was originally visited by the Xingwang Mansion yesterday. But if there is the slightest danger, the prince and the princess will not allow the prince to come out.

And they came out in peace, and when it was dark, they came back in peace.

The companions went back to Fuxue, and the prince went to see King Xing with Yuan Zonggao and Lu Dian.

The situation on the other side of the levee is not just bad. Not only are there two places where the levees have burst, but even if there are no embankments, the foundations of the levees are somewhat unstable. There were several families downstream, which were swept away by the river that burst the embankment the day before yesterday, and four people drowned.

The rain the day before yesterday was too heavy, and the heavy rain for a day and night caused serious damage to the embankment. Although the levee is still being supported by encouragement, if it rains two more times, I am afraid that the levee will collapse.

It's only mid-May, and it's just entered the rainy season, and Huguang is a place with abundant rain. If the embankment is not built, the thousands of hectares of fertile land in this valley and plain will be affected.

However, if it is necessary to repair the embankment, it is not an easy task, in addition to the old embankment that needs to be repaired for more than 20 miles, it is also necessary to build a new embankment for 20 miles.

King Xing has always been afraid of the heat, a little bitter summer, and looks a lot thinner.

Listening to the reply of the chief official Yuan Zonggao, King Xing's brows became tighter and tighter.

It is not easy to build embankments and dams, and the river valley and plain are flooded nine times in ten years, but the difference between the severity of the flood is only the difference between the severity of the floods, but the local yamen has no intention of building dams, but because there are a lot of things involved, it is not easy to make merits, but it is easy to make mistakes.

The embankment of more than 20 miles was still led by Xingwangfu and built several times. Since the construction of the dike, the flooding of the valley plain has been extinct. I would like to think that the old levee can last for decades, but in the past few years, there has been abundant rain, and this year's rain is worse than usual.

Not to mention the side, it was the heavy rain the day before yesterday, which has not been encountered in a hundred years.

As early as before the return of Shizi and his entourage, King Xing got the gift of local officials, because of the heavy rain the day before yesterday, more than 300 houses of the people in Nancheng collapsed, and dozens of people drowned.

In a peaceful and prosperous era, this is already a catastrophe and needs to be reported to the imperial court.

Where did the local officials dare to conceal such a major event, and when they came to the palace, they also wanted to see what King Xing meant. Whether it should be "re-reported" or "lightly reported" is a question.

King Xing's meaning was to "re-report", and he himself also made an excerpt, mentioning the matter of damming and waterproofing.

If you want to ask the court for silver, it is a dream; The local bank will not have this large amount of spare money. When the king was revived, he only said that the palace wanted to give money and grain to build a dam. You don't need the court to pay for money, you can still settle the people, and the court will not only approve it, but maybe there will be some praise to give.

After waiting for the approval letter of the imperial court, Xingwangfu can invite the Anlu gentry to "share the grand event", after all, in the river valley plain, it is not just the Zhuangzi of the palace. The earlier more than 20 miles of embankments were built in this way in the way of "the palace taking the lead and the gentry co-inlaying".

It's just that the rain in previous years was not so bad, and the embankments were built in critical places, and they were built for more than 20 miles one after another.

Even if King Xing told the imperial court that the flood was serious, he did not expect that the situation would be so dangerous, not three or five miles, but the need to build a twenty-mile embankment. And when building a new embankment, the old embankment of more than 20 miles cannot be slackened.

King Xing thought about it, he felt a headache, looked at his son who was sitting next and said, "Xuan'er, what do you think about the matter of the embankment?" ”

Shizi thought for a while and said: "The valley plain is low-lying, and it is between two rivers, and in the early years, due to floods, it was mostly wasteland. It was his father who made people build dams and reclaim fields in his early years, so that the place gradually improved, and Anlu also increased the number of fertile land...... If you don't care, I'm afraid it will become a wasteland in a few years......

This is also unbearable for King Xing.

Where is the little silver in Guantian enough for the expenses of the palace, if there is no harvest here in Mintian, then the life of the palace will be embarrassed. For a prince who has been in comfort and pleasure for half his life, this is unbearable.

King Xing took a long breath and said, "Okay, just repair the embankment!" As he spoke, he turned his head to Yuan Zonggao and said, "Please arrange it on behalf of the orphan, and send a post out tomorrow, and then the king of Japan will summon the officials and gentry of Anlu to discuss the matter of prevention......

In the school, the excitement of going out has not subsided, and they gathered in the music hall to talk about today's outing.

Although horse racing and hunting are legends, the novelty of going out with the son of the world for the first time also aroused excitement in people's hearts.

Even if the Wang, Liu, and Lu families are all local surnames, and their children are also hugging each other when they travel, where can they compare to the posture of the prince's son. Today's world travels, it is still a "simple battle", if it is a full set of honor guards, I don't know how powerful it is.

Not to mention the side, let's just say that before the prince goes out of the city, not only must the streets be cleaned, but the people on both sides of the road must also kneel to greet them. Even their entourage was bowed down by the people, which means a bit of "fox and fake tiger".

Everyone was talking lively, "boom" a thunder interrupted everyone's words, and the heavy rain returned......
