Chapter 172: Flood Urgency

"I didn't want to shine in front of two grandmothers." Yan Zhenzhen added: "It's all made soft and pointed, these furs I chose, they don't look very good, but fortunately, the fur is thick, made into a cushion, and the core is stored, which is absolutely soft." ”

"Miss, others do wiping their foreheads and covering their hands, they all have scheming inside, wiping their foreheads and covering their hands are all on the bright side." Chunyun hopes that Yan Zhenzhen will change her mind.

The second lady is in the house, and she has attracted much attention in the capital, and what she has snatched away is everything that Yan Zhenzhen has.

"What do I want that kind of scheming for?" Yan Zhenzhen was thinking about how to knock on the old lady's courtyard door and give her mother and grandfather's cushions, but the old lady was gone, and her grandfather and other people in the house would not easily disturb her: "Hurry up and do a good job of the cushion, I don't care about homework, I want to give it away." ”

"Xia Yun's handiwork is good, the slave will call her over." Chunyun quickly found an excuse and slipped away......

In Lucheng, it rained heavily for several days, and the water of the Wei River rose rapidly and fiercely.

The trees on the shore were washed away by the river, revealing their roots.

The mud on the banks of the river collapsed piece by piece.

In some places where the banks are shallow, the raging waters of the Wei River have washed into the farmland.

The third runner-up, Hou Shizi Yue Mingli, led a group of people to stand in the distance, looking at the direction of the river embankment, Yan Bohe, Yan Qing was on the side, everyone was wearing a coat, the close-fitting clothes were still wet and dripping with water, the sound of the river and the rain swallowed up the human voice, and everyone spoke by roaring: "If the rain doesn't stop, this embankment can't be saved!" ”

"No, I'm going to go up to the embankment."

"The rain is too heavy, the embankment was built several years ago, and I can't bear it, so I have to write an urgent report to Kyori......"

Yue Mingli, the third runner-up, raised his hand and wiped the rain on his face: "Later, I will send a clever person to the embankment to see the specific situation." After seeing the situation, I personally wrote an urgent report. ”

"The third runner-up Hou Shizi, it's better to put your people and the people I brought together, and think of a way to dredge the river first, I took a look, and the trees that were washed down, dead branches or something, are all concentrated downstream. The siltation of the river is also due to this. Yan Bohe wrung out the dripping handkerchief and wiped his face indiscriminately: "Dredging downstream, the pressure on the embankment can also be reduced." ”

"Lord Yan, as far as the people we brought, there are too few, a few of my subordinates were swept away by the river before, and now they haven't been recovered, so we can't ask people to be in danger anymore, otherwise there will be no people sent out to do things." Yue Mingli didn't say anything, there were more and more victims in the past few days, and he had to allocate people to protect them. As a result, there are fewer people available.

It is also necessary to prevent disaster victims, displaced people, and even popular uprisings.

But he didn't say this to Yan Bohe. Yan Bohe's method is effective, but the manpower around them is already very limited. It can no longer be assigned.

Everyone has a worry on their face.

"Let's go back and think about it for the long haul." Yue Mingli glanced back at the turbulent Wei River, a big tree finally couldn't resist the impact of the river, and slowly fell, and was instantly swept away by the river and invisible.

It was a big tree surrounded by two people, and they had observed the river from it two days earlier.

Now, the tree was gone, and where it had once taken root, the river had swept away a piece of dirt and formed a depression, which disappeared visibly under the river's several washes.

On a high ground by the river, there was a courtyard with three or four rooms, one of which had been washed down by the heavy rain. Dozens of people were remembered in the crumbling two rooms, and the floor was covered with water dripping from their bodies.

"No one expected that there would be so much rain this year." Yue Mingli took off his coat and put it aside to drip water: "I can't find any dry firewood around here, don't think about hot water and hot rice, let's make do with some dry food." Rest in batches, and some people will inspect the shore situation first. ”

"Shizi, the dog and I have just arrived, and we still have the strength to spare, so let's inspect the river first." Yan Bohe twisted the handkerchief again, squeezed out a pile of water, he wiped his face and head dry, and wiped his body indiscriminately: "The official post is in Lucheng, and when you send someone back to deliver the letter, you will buy some firewood in the city by the way." At least you should be able to use less hot water and ginger soup or something, so that you can't make people tired and sick. ”

Yue Ming raised his voice and said: "Lord Yan, Brother Wei Fang, I will patrol with you, after all, I came a few days earlier, and I am familiar with the road conditions, this rain is very heavy, it is very easy to lose my way, and I can't find this courtyard without an acquaintance to guide me." ”

Yan Bohe looked at Yue Mingli, Yue Mingyang is the youngest son of the third runner-up Hou family, and was brought over by Yue Mingli, the son of the world, to experience, this person is arrogant and expensive, in case there is a mistake-

Yue Mingli didn't have any worries: "Just do it, a few of you will go after a while, you go to patrol, be more careful, try not to get close to the river, the river bank is unstable, and it may collapse at any time." ”

A few people naturally complied, Yue Mingyang sat down next to Yan Qing and patted him on the shoulder: "I didn't expect Uncle Shi to take you to such a dangerous place." ”

"Don't flatter me, you and Brother Ling are the young masters of the Hou Mansion, aren't they the same?" Yan Qing also patted Yue Mingyang, he knew how much Yue Mingyang came here, An Ran was originally Yue Mingyang's fiancΓ©e, and the two of them, who were originally fiancΓ©es, could get married at any time, who knew that An Ran was suddenly named the county lord of Changning, and did such a thing.

Yue Mingyang twitched the corners of his mouth bitterly: "If I have seen the suffering of the people, I won't think much about it, I only have in my head how to quickly calm down the flood." ”

"Originally, when I came, I was thinking about the book of "Guide River Shengshu", how to govern the river in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and the river canal book of "Historical Records", and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and I saw the current situation of the Wei River, and I knew that the book was a book, which was very different from reality. I don't know where to start. Yan Qing also smiled bitterly: "I want to refute what my father said about dredging the river, but I can't find the words." ”

"You're just reading and pedantic." After listening to Yan Qing's words, Yan Bohe frowned and reprimanded: "What is recorded in the book is the method of the ancients to govern the river, it's not that it can't be used, it's just that it can't be copied. ”

Yan Qing's face was red by Uncle Yan and Xun, and Yue Mingli said lightly: "Lord Yan, take this opportunity to quickly recuperate." The river is very long, and it takes a lot of physical effort to patrol around. ”

Yan Bohe and Yan Qing only noticed at this time that Yue Ming was leaning against the wall and pretending to sleep, and the rest of the people were sitting on the spot in wet clothes, tilting their heads and falling asleep.

Some of them were still snoring.

It's clear that it's tired.

Yan Bohe picked up his coat and walked out, he was wet, cold and hungry, it was impossible to sit there and fall asleep, Yan Qing hurriedly followed: "Dad, what are you going to do?" ”

"Explore the river." Yan Bohe put his coat on his body, tied it, and walked into the rain.
