Chapter 236 Dayu controls the water

The next morning, when An Lan woke up from the chaos, she heard an extremely noisy shouting outside, and the sorrow between her brows filled again.

There was a knock at the door, and she hurriedly put on her shoes and went out, only to find that the person who had come was Red Rose. Hongqiang was holding some simple white porridge and a small plate of pickles, which looked very cold.

"Don't you have much food left?" An Lan asked with a calm face, she didn't feel so much because she didn't eat well.

Hong Qiang naturally knew this, she bit her lip, and nodded neatly.

"Yes, now that this is already good food, everyone's food is running out. The grain and grass reinforced in the capital have not yet arrived, and it is estimated that it will arrive early the day after tomorrow, so the princess will be aggrieved. ”

At the moment of speaking, Hongqiang came in and put the bowl of white porridge and a plate of small pickles on the table on the side, wanting An Lan to eat some to relieve the hunger in his stomach.

But An Lan didn't have any intention of eating it now, all she thought about was those dawn people.

The dishes I eat are all porridge and side dishes, not to mention those ordinary Li people, or they don't even have anything to eat.

"I can't eat it now, where is the prince?" An Lan calmed down and asked.

"The prince discussed important matters with the county order in front, and he was afraid of disturbing you, so I specially asked me not to call you."

Hearing Hongqiang's words, An Lan felt a little blamed in his heart.

Her sleep is important, but she feels that the current situation is even more important, if the flood is not controlled, they can sleep peacefully for many years for the rest of their lives, and I am afraid that there will be no more future.

The worry between An Lan's eyebrows was difficult to contain, and he was unwilling to wait here with peace of mind, looking for Chu Xingze and the others in the front hall.

At this moment, Chu Xingze was anxious with the county magistrate, thinking of a solution to the matter.

Seeing An Lan wake up so early, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of Chu Xingze's lips, and he walked over to hold An Lan's hand.

"Why don't you sleep well for a while, what are you doing when you get up at this time?" He pulled An Lan and wanted An Lan to go back and sleep for a while,

In the past few days, this woman's busyness and hard work, he really regretted it in his eyes.

In front of outsiders, his actions were not inappropriate, and An Lan began to complain and blame Chu Xingze instead.

"Even if the prince cherishes me, it's not this kind of thing. If we fail this time, what will be the consequences, the prince should be very clear! Besides, with so many dawn people in dire straits, how do you want me to sleep peacefully? And to do so would you not put me in a place of ruthlessness and unrighteousness? ”

An Lan's words were impassioned, Chu Xingze was slightly stunned, and his face instantly filled with a little embarrassment.

The county magistrate on one side was excited by An Lan's words, and he never imagined that a little woman could say such words.

His admiration for An Lan kept pouring out, like a surging flood.

"I can't imagine that the princess still has such feelings, I really admire it, since the princess wants to make a contribution, then why don't you discuss it with us! With the wisdom of the princess and such a broad mind, I believe we will be able to find a solution! ”

Although the county commander is a military general, his eloquence is still quite good, and he is eager to try what An Lan said in a few words.

If you can't find a solution, I'm really sorry for the praise he just made.

An Lan joined in the scope they had just discussed, and the county commander took one of the chess pieces and placed it on the edge of the circle.

"Lord and Princess, the current situation is like this chess piece, the flood is opposite us, it is tightly blocked, I am afraid there is no way to block it higher.

If these floods become more ferocious, sooner or later they will break through the embankment and drown the chess piece......"

An Lan understood the description of the county order, but now they are just blindly reinforcing it, and they have not used other methods to govern it at all. Chu Xingze was also immediately entangled there, unable to think of a foolproof solution.

An Lan suggested that they should go to the side and see what the situation was now. Naturally, the county magistrate would not refuse, and took them to the reinforced shore together.

The sandbags on it have been piled up more than ten meters high, and those floodwaters are still a little unstoppable, and I want to turn over these sandbags and drive straight down.

Seeing that these sandbags were piled up so high, An Lan's face was a little more tangled, and she knew better that stacking sandbags like this was not a long-term solution, but it was the only way right now.

"I don't think it's a way to block it like this, this water is like a person's anger fire, if you don't let it out, I'm afraid it will pile up here and get stronger and stronger......"

Chu Xingze suddenly spoke thoughtfully, and his words hit An Lan's heart, making her eyes a little clearer in an instant.

"What the prince said is true, this is indeed like a person's anger, if it is not vented as soon as possible, it will make him suffocate his illness. Just like this flood, if it continues to pile up, it will only become more ferocious, and sooner or later it will be out of control, but it will only be a matter of time......"

An Lan's opinion made the county commander and Chu Xingze quite appreciative, and the three of them had the same idea, which was different from the previous officials who controlled the flood.

The previous flood control officials only cared about reinforcing or even blocking these floods, and they didn't think about how to channel the anger of these floods and let their anger dissipate somewhat.

"Okay, let's go back first, and then think about it." Chu Xingze spoke. Now that this is the case, they can only go back and think of other ways.

They went back quickly, and it took a quarter of an hour to return to the place where they temporarily lived, An Lan sat there pondering everything, and Chu Xingze and the county commander were thinking of a way.

An Lan suddenly thought of a story in ancient times, that is, Dayu controlled the water. Her face gradually improved, and Chu Xingze came over at this time, seeing An Lan's face like this, he was still a little suspicious.

"What's wrong with you? Did you think of a solution? Chu Xingze was a little more excited between his eyebrows, if An Lan didn't think of a way, she might not look like this.

Sure enough, as he guessed, An Lan did think of a way, she took Chu Xingze's hand and let Chu Xingze sit next to her.

"Yes, I did think of a way, I just didn't know if it would work, but I felt like it was the only way to do it right now. I once heard a story called Dayu to control the water, this is a myth in ancient times, at that time there were floods everywhere, more fierce than now, there is a person called Dayu......"

An Lan deliberately shortened the truth of the story he knew and told it to Chu Xingze.
