"What? Emperor! Why didn't Qian Huichun evacuate the people around him after the flood? Couldn't he do all of this? ”

Everyone present was shocked, they couldn't understand why Qian Huichun was so stupid.

"Evacuation? Where to evacuate? The river embankment collapsed by more than half, and the river water was like an arrow from the string, running to dozens of miles in an instant, submerging all the highlands they inhabited, and they had no way to retreat, and they had no time to retreat! ”

The hearts of the people present were cold, even if they didn't see such a scene, but they only thought of the ruthless river that had taken the lives of so many people. But anyone who still has some conscience in his heart has to feel sad about this.

"This person is too incompetent, I don't know how he became the prefect of Changtian Mansion? Why is it that only he has such a serious disaster in Changtianfu? Could it be that before this, he didn't allocate manpower to reinforce the river embankment again? ”

Dai Yuanji, the secretary of the military department, was full of indignation, such a major flood had never been in this dynasty.

"What Master Dai said is very true, as long as there is a burst of the embankment, how can the embankment still be strong? There will be another large-scale collapse, and Qian Huichun did not do a good job in this first step, and then it was a wrong step! ”

"Your Majesty! Wei Chen thinks that what Gu Chengyu, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, said is reasonable, since there has been a flood in Changtian Mansion, can the embankments of other state capitals in the south of the Yangtze River withstand this surging river? That's worrying! ”

Yang Shiqi, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was also worried, and was not optimistic about the firmness of the embankments of other state capitals in the south of the Yangtze River.

"Your Majesty, Erchen thinks that Master Gu has a lot of experience in the matter of floods, so why don't you send Gu Chengyu to Jiangnan to deal with this matter with full authority."

The prince frowned, the matter had reached the point where it could not be ended. Inevitably, things get worse, and we have to come up with a way to deal with it as soon as possible.

And now the one who can successfully solve the flood problem is none other than Gu Chengyu.

"That's what I mean!" Where can the emperor still take care of the battle between the court at this time? At present, the most important thing is how to minimize the losses in Jiangnan.

"The younger one has seen the eldest brother of the guard, and the younger one wants to invite the eldest brother to the Hanlin Academy to spread the word, and the attendant of the Hanlin Academy, Master Gu, has something important to report to him."

Mingmo remembered the flying pigeon in his arms and said eagerly.

The lord had instructed that the affairs of Jiangnan must be reported to him in time, so he did not dare to delay. Even if the lord is still on an errand in the Hanlin Academy, he has to come to report it.

"Wait a minute, this little brother, I'll go and pass it on." This guard didn't dare to slack off, who didn't know that Master Gu went to the palace to participate in the deliberations last night?

The emperor values Lord Gu so much, he can't afford to offend!

"Master Gu! Hurry up, the emperor is urgent! ”

Gu Chengyu thought as he walked, now is the time of the last dynasty, what is the reason why the emperor is so urgent?

Could it be that something happened to Changtianfu again? He thought it was highly likely. This is because after the embankment collapses once, even if it is immediately replaced, it will become extremely weak, and it is absolutely possible to collapse again.

Hearing De'an's urging, Gu Chengyu quickened his pace. Looking at De'an, who was already old in front of him, but still walking like a fly, Gu Chengyu felt that his guess was nine times out of ten right, and the danger in Changtianfu was more serious than he imagined.

"Your Majesty! Gu Chengyu has also just entered the dynasty for more than two years, and it is not appropriate to send him to Jiangnan to take charge of the overall situation. ”

Dai Yuanji frowned, this was different from Min Feng before. After all, Min Feng is only patrolling the imperial history of the river, and it is Hu Maoshen who is really in charge.

But what did the emperor mean just now, did he want to send Gu Chengyu to Jiangnan again? So in what capacity? Is it Chin Cha again?

The two Qin sent to Jiangnan, who did those officials listen to? Could it be that the emperor wants to recall Hu Maoshen?

The officials present all had such questions in their hearts, but only Dai Yuanji dared to raise them at this time.

The emperor's face sank, "What's wrong?" Is there anyone else who can do better than him? The emperor sneered coldly.

He swept his gaze over these officials, and everywhere he looked, everyone bowed their heads and said nothing.

The emperor snorted coldly in his heart, knowing that this was a hot potato, and he was afraid of being responsible.

These courtiers are also old, and the court urgently needs young talents who dare to act and excel in ability.

It was not enough to take the scholars in the Kai'en branch last time, and the emperor decided that the previous imperial examination system would be restored when the next township examination began.

"Minister Gu Chengyu see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

Gu Chengyu felt that everyone's eyes in the hall were focused on him, but he was not afraid. In the future, there will be many opportunities for this kind of attention, and he will have to get used to it, right?

Xia Qing's originally iron-blue face completely turned bronze after seeing Gu Chengyu.

De'an was already out of breath when he walked here, but when he saw that so many officials in the hall were waiting for Gu Chengyu to see him, he couldn't help but be secretly frightened!

How capable is it to let these officials above the third grade wait for an official from the fifth grade to deliberate? And how much glory is it?

"Gu Aiqing, Changtianfu broke the embankment again, flooding more than ten villages, and the number of dead and wounded is currently within seven or eight thousand. In order to prevent the embankment from bursting again, I named you a messenger and immediately set off for Jiangnan. ”

The emperor eagerly explained the intention of announcing Gu Chengyu's visit, but Gu Chengyu, who heard this, sank in his heart.

It really broke the embankment again, he had such a hunch, but it was so serious that he was still frightened.

At this moment, it is not the time for him to take Qiao, Gu Chengyu still has this conscience. Besides, after this matter is completed, the emperor should not treat him badly.

He was about to answer, but then the emperor said another piece of news that surprised him.

"Where is Zhong Shize, the secretary of the ministry?"

Zhong Shize, the secretary of the ministry, quickly came out of the ranks, "The minister is here!" ”

"I order you to immediately handle the tooth card and related official documents for Gu Chengyu's promotion, and I will promote him to the right Shaoqing of Dali Temple. You do it now, and you can't make a mistake! ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers were shocked!

"Your Majesty, the right Shaoqing of Dali Temple is the official position of the fourth grade, Gu Chengyu is now only from the fifth grade, and he spans three grades in a row, not only has it never been seen in this dynasty, but it has never been heard of in the previous dynasty!"

Zhong Shize's face sank slightly, once this kind of precedent is set, how will the officials be on errands in the future?

Such a big leap in grade is completely unreasonable, let alone in line with the laws of this dynasty.

"Your Majesty, what Lord Zhong said is reasonable, and it is unreasonable to be promoted so quickly! If a precedent is set, wouldn't the promotion of officialdom in the future be chaotic? How else can the ministry be in charge? Besides, the right Shaoqing of Dali Temple today is Tao Junyan, where will the emperor put him? ”

Zhong Shize thought that the emperor was dizzy because of the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, which was ridiculous!

Before Xia Qing sought an official position for Min Feng, he was promoted two levels in a row, but he was also promoted one level at a time.

It's just that the interval between is short, and now that Gu Chengyu has been promoted so quickly, how can others be embarrassed?
