Chapter 158: River Affairs (1)
Looking at his brother who was laughing all the way away, Yin was in a trance, until Qin Shun, the waiting eunuch beside him, reminded him in a low voice, and realized that the prince was still drunk and bedridden in the study. Reading a book// Lifting the bamboo curtain of the study, in the flickering lights, Yin greeted the prince's clear eyes, where was there a trace of drunkenness? Seeing Yin's inquiring look, the prince said lightly: "But it's just a void and a snake with a drink, the fourth brother won't blame me?" Yin hurriedly said: "How dare the minister." It's just that today's ...... "Yin?" hesitated slightly, but continued: "Please forgive the courtiers for being blunt, the eighth brother and the ninth brother are still young, and it is inevitable that they will sometimes lose proportion when they speak. The corners of the prince's mouth showed some bitterness, and he said, "The fourth brother's heart is too soft. Think about it, at what age the old eight and nine are they, they have already openly argued with me, whose power is it to fight? Care, yes, it's really ridiculous, a dignified prince would actually be angry with his younger brother during the banquet. But the fourth brother, don't forget, Emperor Taizu Gao has the same heart for the world, can't he tolerate a Shuerhaqi?" When Shuerhaqi peeked at Nurhachi's imperial power, and finally died tragically in solitary confinement, could it be that the prince's confusion fell in the eyes of the prince, the prince shook his hand and said: "Fourth brother, don't think about it, I am not a ruthless person." In the final analysis, no matter which Eniang's son the brothers are, they are all the blood and blood of Huang Ama. I hope they are smarter, if they know how to be restrained and can abide by the way of their subordinates, how can I do anything to slaughter my brothers?" Yin's mind moved quickly, the prince's words of hidden murder were biased to tell himself, but the prince wanted to use himself as a microphone to warn the eighth and ninth elder brothers? Also, what is the meaning of the 'battle situation' in the words of the prince of Shicai? Is the prince still alluding to the eldest elder brother?
The brothers were speechless for a while, the prince glanced at the 'beep' flame in the lamp, and the face of Yin? seemed to be cloudy, the prince suddenly laughed, and said, "Don't talk about these sad things anymore." Tell me about your messenger. Reading the book // In a few months, Huang Ama will return to Beijing by holy car, and this river can not be delayed. "Yes. Yin? settled his mind and said: "In the past two days, my brother has transferred some old files from the Imperial History and the Ministry of Industry from the Huangshi and the Ministry of Industry over the years to mix the river in the suburbs of Beijing and the Zhaowang River, Cao River, and Zhulong River south of Baoding, and have read them carefully. Prepare to walk around these places early tomorrow morning and see for yourself. When Jackie Chan comes, he can discuss a strategy with him. The younger brother had never done river affairs before, so he could only make up for his clumsiness with diligence. The prince nodded and said, "I'll write you an edict right now, and it's more convenient for you to go out of the city on errands." After a pause, the prince said, "Since you are my man, I must give you more." Huang Ama often said, you work tirelessly, diligently. These are all good, but they are just big things, and they don't have to be done by themselves. Good is not as good as making good use of people. Yu Chenglong is a capable minister, and he has a good reputation among the government and the opposition, but his temperament is too Geng Jie, and you should have heard some of the disputes between him and Jin Fu in the past. This time, you are in charge of the chaos, but you have to use him well. After finishing speaking, the prince unfolded Xue Tao's note on the case, wrote a few lines on it, used a seal, and handed it to Yin. Yin? took it, and thought secretly: "In the past, when I looked at the prince, I always felt that he was just a middle-aged person, but tonight's words are also a little insightful." I don't understand this truth, but if you are too good at employing people, and you don't commit the taboo of the prince? Therefore, it is better to do things in a down-to-earth manner first. ”
The next day, Yin? changed into a lake-blue cloth coat, put on a moon-white silk Baturu vest, and wore a tassel hat, and only let Nian Qianyao and Baozhu go out of the capital with them. Because the master was dressed plainly, Nian Qianyao and Baozhu knew that Yin was a micro-suit, and only Tsing Yi and a small hat followed. Looking at the three of them, it was like a solid loser and two companions in the family, and it was not noticeable at all.
According to the river file, the confluence of the Zhushui and the Hunhe River in the south of Baoding is in the suburbs of Beijing, and the water rushes down, and the sediment accumulates, and there are often floods because the riverbed is higher than the surface. Although the Jin, Yuan, and Ming dynasties had many repairs, most of them treated the symptoms but not the root cause. There are stone embankments built in the upper reaches of the rivers, and the river water is sandwiched between the mountains, which is not easy to burst; however, from below the Lugou Bridge, the terrain is steep and the soil is loose, so the river water is rippling vertically and horizontally, and the migration is impermanent, which is quite harmful. In the second year of Shunzhi, the eighth year, the eleventh year, the seventh year of Kangxi, and the thirty-first year, in less than 30 years, the route was diverted five times, seriously threatening the safety of the Beijing Division. Although the prince's order to govern the river this time has some meaning of political achievements, if it can really be achieved, it can be regarded as a great good deed for the people of Zhili and the capital.
Out of Beijing along the mixed river to Baoding Mansion walk, only to see the meandering river flow is soothing, although the two banks are green, the river water is like mud. Yin's life treasure pillar went down the river on the horse, and the river water to the depths was only just to the horse's belly. He couldn't stop shaking his head, and when he saw that Nian Qianyao was also looking at the river intently, he said: "Lianggong, you have also watched with me for a few days, what do you think?" This river has a lot of sediment and has been known as the 'Little Yellow River' since the Yuan Dynasty, and the slaves thought that Jin Gong's strategy seemed to be useful for this. ”
"Hmm. Yin? pondered for a moment and said, "Your method sounds reasonable. However, water is impermanent, and it is impossible to generalize from one side to the other. Whether the two methods of dredging are used exclusively or together must be considered. Looking at the barometer of previous years, Huanghuai is often rainy in this season, and it is easy to cause floods after entering Zhili. I don't know if the counties have repaired the embankment earlier this year. Let's take a closer look. ”
At this time, Baozhu had already turned around on the riverbank and said, "Fourth master, you see, it's getting late, why don't we take a few steps and spend the night in Shulu County in front of you?" Baozhu grinned and said, "Fourth master, are you still staying in the inn tonight......? "Yin?" didn't wait for him to finish speaking, then scolded with a smile: "Ye just ate the wind and sand in Mobei for more than half a year, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to live in the inn?" Otherwise, the entertainment sent to us will continue, I'm afraid that this time I won't be able to get out of Huairou, how can I have time to watch the river affairs?" Yin smiled approvingly, added a whip to the back of the horse, and galloped towards Shulu.
When they arrived at the county seat, it was already dusk, and the curling smoke wafting out made the three of them feel hungry for a moment. I found an inn that looked like the largest and walked in. The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him, and saw that although the three of them were dressed ordinarily, they had a noble atmosphere between them, and they immediately piled up a smile on their faces, and said, "Three masters, are you staying in the hotel or playing sharp?"
Nian Qianyao took two steps forward, quietly blocked in front of Yin, and said, "Find three upper rooms next to each other." Find a private room for us again, the table is lighter, just clean. "I casually threw an ingot, about five taels, to the shopkeeper. Xiao Er was even more determined at this time, and these people must be noble children. Five taels of silver in the county town is enough for a family to chew for more than half a year. This is not an ordinary example and a businessman can have. So he bent over even more and said with a smile: "A few masters, the little ones don't look like ordinary people when they look at you." Although the upper rooms of the small shop are not as good as those in the mansions, they are also the top in the county. The small one went to prepare three upper rooms for a few masters. The third master invited him to sit in the private room facing the street on the second floor, and the younger one immediately ordered the cook to carry the seat. Chicken grabs sea cucumber, fried meatballs, and stuffed cabbage in soup, which is designated to be light and clean. Seeing that Xiao Er was still instigating, Baozhu snorted coldly and immediately blocked the rest of Xiao Er's words.
In the end, silver opens the way, and the power is endless. As soon as the three of them sat down, three hot handkerchiefs were immediately brought in. Yin?I rubbed it beautifully, and the fatigue disappeared. At this moment, I suddenly heard a faint cry of a woman outside the window, Yin's brows just furrowed, and a man said loudly: "What's the matter, what if the uncle demolishes your house?"
