Xia Qing originally wanted to mock a few sentences, but when he looked at it, he found that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was already standing on the steps not far from them at some point.

"Definitely! It's not early, it's going to be early. Pingyun, let's go! ”

Xia Qing also ignored Gu Chengyu and took the lead in walking forward. Min Feng saluted and followed his teacher.

Gu Chengyu smiled slightly, and didn't take it to heart.

The prince saw that the people who had watched the play before were almost gone, so he simply walked to Gu Chengyu's side and walked side by side with him.

After Gu Chengyu saluted, the two walked outside the palace together.

"Don't you feel angry?" After a while, the prince suddenly asked.

"Why be angry, isn't that punishing yourself for someone else's fault?" Gu Chengyu chuckled, and then said indifferently.

The prince laughed, "This is interesting, that is, Master Gu has such a free and easy state of mind!" ”

In fact, the prince still had some appreciation for Gu Chengyu's frank attitude just now. Min Feng is far worse than Gu Chengyu!

"If someone picks a peach, you can handle it calmly."

Gu Chengyu raised his eyebrows, "Picking peaches?" Not necessarily, right? ”

Gu Chengyu doesn't think that without the Jiangnan flood, he won't be promoted to an official, not to mention that the Jiangnan flood is not over!

He's been silent for two years, and it's time to make a big noise. Otherwise, everyone in the court will forget about him!

"Master Gu is very confident!" The prince sighed, and then parted ways with Gu Chengyu at the gate of the palace.

Watching Gu Chengyu's carriage leave, the prince was silent. Gu Chengyu is a person, he doesn't eat soft and hard!

It's not far away, but it feels like a confidant, which is good! Let's keep it that way!

"My lord! News came from Hangtianfu that there was a large amount of water seepage on their river embankment, and Lord Yang, the prefect of Hangtian Mansion, had already summoned the people to strengthen the river embankment. ”

Chen Zhao got the news and hurriedly reported it to Qian Huichun.

Qian Huichun frowned, "But you want to ask for reinforcements?" Our Changtianfu has been severely affected, and we need reinforcements more than them, and the manpower here cannot be withdrawn. ”

Before the Changtian Mansion burst the embankment, Qian Huichun had already asked the state capitals for help, so Hang Tianfu had a lot of manpower in the Changtian Mansion for reinforcements.

The news came from there, of course, I didn't expect the Changtian Mansion, which had already been affected, to send additional reinforcements, but we had to return the original reinforcements to the other party, right?

But obviously Qian Huichun didn't plan to do so, he also needs these people now, where will he return them to the other party?

"Don't pay attention, we are the hardest hit here, and we can't let people go!"

But Chen Zhao was a little hesitant, "My lord! We've got a dangerous situation here, and we really need people. But the situation in Hangtianfu is not unserious, if they also burst the embankment, will the higher authorities blame it? ”

Qian Huichun snorted coldly, "We're all too busy to take care of ourselves, where are the manpower to go for reinforcements?" If you want to blame him, Yang Chaoying is also to blame, what does it have to do with this official? ”

Seeing this, Chen Zhao stopped persuading. Anyway, as long as the imperial court sends officials down, they can't escape, and this matter is not a crime.

At this time, everything he and the adults did was to make up for their previous mistakes, in order to atone for their sins!

"This official asked you to evacuate the people of several villages near this area, how is things going?"

Qian Huichun put his mind on the flood, and he had already flown a pigeon to the capital yesterday.

As for the backer, he is also planning, and if he waits for two more days, he doesn't know when he will respond.

"Back to my lord! Halfway through the process, the lowly post must seize the time to transfer all the people out. ”

Chen Zhao watched as the two servants fished up a body soaked in water, because after soaking in water for several days, the body was soaked and swollen, and some places had begun to fester.

Because it was summer, the body was not easy to preserve, and it emitted a foul smell.

Chen Zhao felt a little sad in his heart, because this was still a little baby, about four or five years old, and he couldn't see his facial features clearly.

He fled from the place and began to inspect the victims with his men.

Although the people have been placed on a safe high ground, so many people have to be eaten, drunk and lazard arranged. Otherwise, this weather can smoke people to death.

Especially after so many people have died, the corpse gas spreads, and the epidemic is more likely to occur!

Chen Zhao was actually worried in his heart, and the adults had already reported the number of victims yesterday.

It was more than half the actual number, only 300 people.

So crazy, how could this not make him flustered? Nearly 800 people died!

Can you guarantee that the imperial court really won't find out? If the envoys sent by the imperial court found out that they had lied about the number of people, would they be guilty of a higher degree?

Just as Chen Zhao was thinking wildly, suddenly, he heard a hoarse cry behind him.

"Oh no! The embankment has collapsed again......"

Chen Zhao was shocked when he heard this, he turned his head to take a look, and found that the official who was still shouting just now had disappeared at this moment.

The rushing river is turbulent and overwhelming. The embankment quickly collapsed and fell into the vast water.

The situation was critical at the moment, but Chen Zhao's mind was suddenly extremely clear.

"My lord, it's not good! Hurry up, the flood is coming! ”

He climbed into a nearby horse and whipped it violently, and the horse galloped forward like an arrow from a string.

Qian Huichun was so frightened that he fled in a panic, and he didn't even have time to pick up the black gauze hat when it fell to the ground, so he ran towards Chen Zhao quickly.

Chen Zhao didn't have time to think about it, grabbed Qian Huichun and threw it on the back of the horse behind, and then galloped forward.

"My lord! Oh no, Changtianfu has burst the embankment again! ”

An errand officer braved the pouring rain and stepped on the mud, and shouted at Yang Chaoying, the prefect of Hangtianfu, who was supervising the work in front of him.

Yang Chaoying was not surprised when he heard this, after all, as long as there is a breach in the river embankment, if it is not filled immediately, it is inevitable that the embankment will burst again.

However, he had heard a message from the people he had sent. Qian Huichun was ordering people to move the people to the high ground, and for this reason, he also turned a deaf ear to the seepage of water from the embankment of the Hangtianfu River.

The reinforcements sent earlier also failed to return, which made Yang Chaoying very dissatisfied.

It's been two days, and the people downstream of Changtianfu should have already moved, right? Even if the levee bursts again, it will be a loss of some property at most!

And they Hang Tianfu have to hurry up and strengthen the river embankment, otherwise Hang Tianfu will follow in the footsteps.

It's damn it's raining again, and he's so anxious, where can he manage the affairs of other state capitals?

Why is this embankment so fragile, when the imperial court sends people down to inspect it, he will inevitably have to participate in all the relevant officials.

Why did such a project come through? Is this a matter of ignorance?

Thinking of this, Yang Chaoying waved his hand, ready to continue to command these strong men and move the boulder up.
