Two days later, Qian Chengjue received an 800-mile rush from the Taishou of Uehara City for many days.

On the first day, it was reported that Hexiang Town, a small town in the territory of Uehara City, had been waterlogged due to heavy rainfall, and most of the people's houses were flooded. Hexiang Town is adjacent to the Nanjiang Grand Canal, and if the rain does not stop in the future, there is a risk that the river will backflow the river. After receiving the news, the minister immediately mobilized men and materials to the rescue, and sent this 800-mile expedited to the imperial court.

On the second day, it was reported that the official road leading from Uehara City to Hexiang Town was slightly waterlogged, and the situation was good. However, there is a narrow hilly passage between the two places, which was flooded with mud due to a landslide caused by heavy rains, making it impossible for rescue teams to move forward. The minister divided the team into two teams, a pair of men and horses opened another mountain road to speed up to Hexiang Town, and a pair of people and horses stayed in place to clear the road as soon as possible, and was responsible for the delivery of materials.

On the third day, the report said: Along the way, it was found that a lot of fertile land had been destroyed, and the specific number of destroyed fields had not yet been fully counted. Heavy rain has made it difficult to travel on mountain roads, and the team is expected to reach Hexiang Town tomorrow afternoon.

On the fifth day, he reported that the minister had arrived in Hexiang Town yesterday, but he was busy with disaster relief and rescue, and it would take time to count the extent of the damage in Hexiang Town, so the report was delayed by one day. According to preliminary statistics, the impact of the disaster in Hexiang Town is as follows:

1. About 92 percent of the town's houses and other buildings were flooded, 39 percent were completely damaged, 28 percent were damaged, 12 percent were damaged, and 13 percent were damaged.

2. Nearly 100 ponds on which the town depends have all been flooded, and this year's lotus root harvest is estimated to be only 10% at most.

Third, the loss of grain stocks is about 10 percent.

4. Approximately 50 percent of the loss of other property.

5. The water of the Nanjiang Grand Canal swelled, but due to the timely flood control in Hexiang Town, the phenomenon of river water backflow did not occur.

6. There were no casualties in the town due to the floods.

The hardest hit areas in Hexiang Town this time are the lotus flowers and fruits in the houses and ponds. The reason why the losses in other aspects are relatively small is all due to the timely formulation of flood prevention measures by the prince of Yunbohou Mansion and the excellent execution of Wang Liuzhi, the mayor of Hexiang Town.

It is known that when Yun Shizi returned to Yicheng and passed through Hexiang Town, it coincided with the heavy rain in the world, and he had to dock at the dock of Hexiang Town to avoid the rain. Fortunately, Yun Shizi was vigilant and formulated defensive measures with Mayor Wang as soon as possible, and personally braved the rain to investigate the situation in the mountains northwest of Hexiang Town, looking for a place where the people could be evacuated.

Huangtian lived up to his wishes, and finally let Yun Shizi and his party find a cave that could accommodate the people of the whole town. However, on the day of the transfer of personnel, Yun Shizi and the people of the town were plotted - poisoned and sealed the entrance of the cave with a boulder, but fortunately, Yun Shizi reacted in time and suppressed the spread of the poison among the people, so as to save the lives of the people in the town.

The above is the situation of the flood in Hexiang Town, although the minister has allocated the rich materials of Uehara City for disaster relief, but after all, it is only a drop in the bucket, and the minister implores the emperor to open a warehouse for disaster relief and help the people of Hexiang Town tide over the difficulties. At the same time, the minister was entrusted by all the people of Hexiang Town, and hoped that the emperor would order a thorough investigation of the murderer.

At first, when he received the setback, Qian Chengjue's reaction was indeed as expected by the old marquis Yun, and he did not inform the ministers of the court and the central government in time to discuss the disaster relief.

On the third day, the flood in Hexiang Town began to circulate in Yicheng, saying that it was brought by the people who had just returned from Uehara City.

As soon as the folk news spread, Qian Chengjue knew that the matter could not be suppressed. On this day, Liu Rufang's memorabilia was still delivered on time, and she said that the relief operation was hindered by a landslide. However, these are not what Qian Chengjue is most concerned about, the news he is waiting for has not yet come, but there is no news for him at this moment, it is also good news.

On the morning of the fourth day, Qian Chengjue told the hundred officials about Liu Rufang's report, and said that it was because the disaster situation in Hexiang Town was unclear, so he did not tell everyone about it, in fact, he always cared about the situation in Hexiang Town. At present, all the officials have heard rumors from the market, and in order to avoid everyone's random speculation, they decided to tell the matter, and they also want to hear everyone's opinions.

For this matter, the hundred officials are mainly divided into three factions, one is that they should immediately send people with a batch of materials to assist Liu Rufang in disaster relief, and then allocate materials according to the needs after the disaster situation is determined. The other faction believes that it will wait a little longer, and wait for Liu Rufang to arrive in the disaster area to determine the disaster situation, and then open a position for disaster relief according to the actual situation. There is also a faction that believes that the manpower and material resources of Shangyuan City should be enough to deal with the disaster, in their opinion, Hexiang Town is not big, even if it is affected by the disaster, it will not be very large, and there is no need for the imperial court to open a special warehouse for disaster relief.

The side that advocated sending people to disaster relief immediately was mainly the faction of Qian Chengyue and the Yunbo Marquis Mansion. The officials who advocated that there was no need for the imperial court to open a position were represented by Qian Chengjing and Prime Minister Xie Ji, who were Qian Chengjue's people. Although the other faction advocates disaster relief, their real purpose is for their own interests, and they can only take benefits if the imperial court opens a position, and this part of the officials is represented by the great Sima Cao Xian.

In the end, the three parties disputed, and Qian Chengjue finally decided to wait for two more days, waiting for Liu Rufang's follow-up recital.

Qian Chengjue didn't actually want to provide disaster relief at all, but Liu Rufang was close to the Yunbohou Mansion, and he didn't want to respond to this matter easily. Before that, he had expected that the Yunbohou Mansion would advocate immediate disaster relief, and he needed someone to hold the opposite view and argue with each other in the court, so as to give him enough time, after all, the news he wanted most had not yet arrived.

However, when Qian Chengjue received Liu Rufang's eight-hundred-mile expedited again, he couldn't calm down.

Before Qian Chengjing walked to the upper study, he heard the sound of teacups falling on the ground from a distance, followed by pen holders, inkstones, and vases......

It seems that the royal brother is angry, do you want to meet him now?

Before Qian Chengjing could think clearly, the little eunuch who went to the study saw him and walked towards him quickly. "Lord Jing."

"Brother Huang shouldn't want to see anyone at the moment, this king should come back another day."

"Lord Jing, please stay." The little eunuch called Qian Chengjing, who was about to turn around and leave, and said, "The emperor has instructed that if you come, Prince Jing, you can go in directly." "It's just...... The emperor hadn't been furious yet.

This ~ It seems that there is no escape today. "The king knows."

The little eunuch took a step back and got out of the way. "Lord Wang, please."

Qian Chengjing pushed the door in, and saw Qian Chengjue sitting in front of the bookcase, his two hands clenched into fists and making a 'gurgling' sound, and his face had changed his appearance.

The two little eunuchs who were waiting on the side knelt on the ground in horror and trembled, they were afraid that Qian Chengjue would be unhappy and take their own lives. When they found that Qian Chengjing had come in, they seemed to see a life-saving straw, thinking that the emperor and Prince Jing were talking about things, and their attention would not be on them.

"Brother of the courtiers, see the royal brother." Qian Chengjing walked briskly to salute.

Qian Chengjue glanced at Qian Chengjing and was silent, and after a while it took him to control the anger in his heart and said, "You are here." ”

Qian Chengjue didn't let him get up, he could only be more careful and vigilant. "My brother is here to report something."

"Say."

"The younger brother received news that the king and princess of Nanqi in southern Xinjiang did not enter from Jiwu, but made a detour to the east to enter our country from Shengbai."

Qian Chengjue narrowed his eyes and asked, "Have you found out the reason?" ”

"No further information has been forthcoming, and it is not yet known."

"Let's find out."

"Brother's Honor."

"Pick up the notebook and tell me what you think." Qian Chengjue pointed to a book on the ground.

"Yes." Qian Chengjing got up, picked up the fold and checked it carefully, it turned out that the royal brother was angry because of the matter in Hexiang Town. "Brother Chen thinks that Yun Moxi has saved the people in the town, and the people of Hexiang Town are afraid that they are grateful to him and regard them as if they were parents again."

"Humph! He never knew how to retreat. "Since he was a child, he has been doing things to win the hearts of the people, and he is respected by the world, what do he want.

"Or I want to help Qian Chengyue win people's hearts."

"He can have Yun Moxi, a cousin with peerless talent, and he is really favored by God. It's a pity that this Dongyue is already in my bag, and it is not so easy for them to take it. "Qian Chengyue has been loved by his father since he was born, and he has the backing of Yun Bohou's Mansion, and now there is another Yun Moxi to help him, which really has to make people jealous.

"Brother Huang is right, besides, although Qian Chengyue was favored by his father back then, his father did not pass the throne to him after all, presumably his father was also taboo about the power of Yun Bohou's mansion, and he was worried that his relatives would interfere in politics and change the dynasty."

A word woke up the dreamer, he had been resentful for many years, but he didn't understand that his father was indeed willing to hand over the throne to him. "The forces of the Yunbo Marquis Mansion are intertwined, and they can't be disintegrated in a while."

"As long as people make mistakes, we will always catch them. Besides, it is not a good thing that the root system is too large, and it is inevitable that one or two mouse droppings will appear in a bowl of white porridge for a long time, and sometimes it will affect the whole body. ”

Indeed, Yun Moxi is the only heir to the title of Marquis of Yunbo, which is a gap that people can enter. Although Yun Moxi escaped by luck this time, he didn't believe that he could have such luck every time.

Thinking of this, Qian Chengjue's anger disappeared a lot, and he turned to ask about another matter. "How's that going?"

Qian Chengjing chuckled in his heart, after all, he still had to talk about it, seeing that the imperial brother's anger had subsided at the moment, he hoped that he would not be angry with him. So, Qian Chengjing reported cautiously: "There are no eyebrows yet." ”

"Rubbish!" Hearing this, Qian Chengjue was furious again, picked up the fold at hand and threw it at Qian Chengjing.

Seeing this, Qian Chengjing immediately knelt down and said, "Brother Huang is angry." ”

However, the eunuch, who had not been comfortable for a long time, buried his head lower when he saw the situation, and his body trembled more and more, thinking what day it was today!

Qian Chengjue's eyes widened angrily, "Stop your anger, how do you let me calm my anger!" How many days have passed, and there are no useful clues, what do I want you to do! ”

"Please also ask the imperial brother to give his younger brother some more time, and he will definitely give the imperial brother an explanation when the time comes."

Qian Chengjue was not only angry that his younger brother was useless, but even his own people didn't find any clues, and he was even more angry that the other party could do it without leaving a clue. "That's it, then I'll give you another half a month." Realizing that he was too angry with Qian Chengjing today, Qian Chengjue restrained his emotions.

"Brother Xie Huang."

"Go down if it's okay."

"Brother quit."

……

"Someone." After Qian Chengjing left, Qian Chengjue summoned the secret guard he had cultivated.

After a while, someone soon appeared from the shadows, "Subordinates see the emperor." ”

"Send someone to send a letter to He Wu, so that he doesn't act rashly, and he must not be caught by the other party."

"Yes."
