In mid-July, the weather gets hotter and hotter. After Shangguan Ye went to Yuzhou, the news that came back was not very optimistic. It has not rained in Jingzhou for dozens of days, and the same is true for Yuzhou, and because of the drought and heat, the people there are already miserable.

Nangong Yu looked at the folds, and her face was a little ugly. The drought in Yuzhou is already serious, but at this time, those grain merchants who have stored grain have deliberately raised the price, so that the people of Yuzhou can not eat rice for everyone.

Moreover, because it has not rained, the drought has caused heavy losses in many places, and the water has dried up in many places.

Shangguan Ye has been there for dozens of days, and he has tried his best to make all kinds of efforts, but he still can't alleviate the situation in Yuzhou.

Nangong Yufeng sat on one side and sighed, "It seems that the drought in Yuzhou is much more serious than imagined. ”

Nangong Yu dropped the folds, her face gloomy, "Now, according to the situation over there, even if we allocate food for disaster relief, I am afraid that we will not be able to solve the substantive problem." In addition to the problem of food, there is also the problem of water, if the water situation can not be well solved, I am afraid that the people of Yuzhou will be miserable. ”

"You're right, it's just that it's not raining, so what can we do. Now, anyone who wants to drink water can only go up the mountain. It's just that the terrain of this Ganquan Mountain is dangerous, and it is thousands of zhang high, and it is extremely difficult to go up to this mountain. I've heard that some people who went up the mountain fell down the road and died, and some died of thirst on the road, which is really pitiful. ”

"This Ganquan Mountain is a blessed land, it is not dry all year round, it must be God to Yuzhou not so desperate."

After hearing this, Nangong Yufeng looked at him, "Don't you really want to lead the spring?" ”

"Why not?"

"It's been all these days, I thought you were just talking," Nangong Yufeng pursed his lips and said, "The situation in Yuzhou is so serious, who do you want to guide you to this Ganquan Mountain?" ”

The words fell, but Nangong Yu looked at Nangong Yufeng. Nangong Yufeng was stunned for a moment, and said dissatisfiedly, "If you want me to take someone there, it will be done, but to this day, you haven't said what your plan is." I don't know anything, how do I know if what you're saying is feasible or not. ”

"Sixth brother, don't worry." Nangong Yu lowered her eyes, and then pulled out a piece of paper from under the pile of folds. He carefully spread it out, and then brought it to Nangong Yufeng.

Nangong Yufeng took the thing suspiciously, and then looked down. Suddenly, I saw him frowning for a while, and then "huh" for a while, as if he was a little surprised. After a while, he put his things down and asked, "Are you sure this is possible?" ”

"Sixth brother believes me?"

"Naturally, I believe."

After listening, Nangong Yu said, "This method can reduce a lot of our manpower and material resources, and after the construction starts, it can be completed in half a month." It's just that after this is done, it needs to be repaired and inspected once a year, and there can be no mistakes. I can't believe this matter anyone, but I can rest assured that I can only hand it over to the sixth brother. ”

Nangong Yufeng lowered his head, glanced at the drawing on it again, and said after thinking for a long time, "Your idea is really peculiar, but it's not impossible." If it can successfully lead the spring down, it will definitely benefit the people of Yuzhou. However, in what direction should this spring water be directed? ”

"This matter is naturally going to bother my father-in-law and the sixth brother." Nangong Yu carefully put away the drawings and handed them over to him and said, "I sent my father-in-law for so long, so naturally I need him to survey the terrain." This time, the sixth brother only needs to cooperate with his father-in-law, and this spring water will definitely be able to lead down. ”

Looking at Nangong Yu's confident gaze, Nangong Yufeng did not hesitate too much when holding the drawings in his hand.

"Okay, I'll leave for Yuzhou tomorrow." ”

"I'm tired of the sixth brother."

"What you say, this is for the benefit of the people, since this method can be tried, why can't I go over?" After that, Nangong Yufeng carefully put the drawings in his arms.

Although he didn't know how likely Nangong Yufeng's method was, when he saw that drawing, in addition to being suspicious, he actually felt that the spring water could be brought down.

Although, this seems to many people to be a bit ridiculous, and it can even be said to be a fantasy. But it doesn't hurt to try.

……

After such a decision, Nangong Yufeng left Beijing in a hurry on the second day. When he left Jingzhou City, he almost alarmed the entire government and the opposition and the people of the entire Jingzhou City.

I heard that Nangong Yufeng went to Yuzhou this time, in order to bring down the spring water on Naganquan Mountain. As a result, the people of Jingzhou City and some ministers in the court talked about it, and they laughed at Nangong Yu's incompetence.

And Nangong Yufeng is said to have become more and more unconscious since he followed the prince.

……

There were many people outside, turning the incident into a joke at the dinner table, and some storytellers turned it into a story and talked about it in the teahouse.

……

Inside the Prince's Mansion.

Mrs. Qian and Shangguan Xue'er sat in the lobby, frowning when they drank tea.

After a while, Mrs. Qian put down the tea and said unhappily, "What does the prince think, how can he think of drawing a spring from Ganquan Mountain." Indeed, the spring water on the mountain is divine water, and it would be good if it could be brought down. But I heard that the Ganquan Mountain is thousands of feet high, and it is not easy to climb it. And this time, when Prince Yu went, he actually said that it would not be completed in half a month. Tell me how many people it would take to complete such a huge project in half a month. ”

After listening to Mrs. Qian's angry complaints, Su Jin chuckled and said, "Mrs. Qian is not angry, this matter was also decided by him after careful consideration, and if the sixth brother can follow his idea and go to Yuzhou in person, it means that the sixth brother also feels that this method is still feasible." ”

After that, Shangguan Xue'er on the side sighed.

"When the prince went out, I also asked carefully, but the prince only said that this matter was urgent, and after taking him to do things first, he would come back and explain it to me in detail." As she spoke, Shangguan Xue'er turned her head and looked at Su Jin and said, "Don't you know about this matter either?" ”

"I really don't know about this."

"Then why don't you persuade some?"

"I believe in Him." Su Jin lowered his eyes and only lightly spit out these three words.

Mrs. Qian furrowed her brows, and suddenly didn't know how to answer. It's like a joke, but the two of them are also joking. If it doesn't work out, wouldn't it be a joke?
