Zhu Chen took a deep breath and began to label and draw lines on the map.

At first, Zhu Chen was also clueless, but as time passed, Zhu Chen's speed of marking and drawing lines became faster and faster.

Diversion of water flow is to lead the surging water to other places, and Zhu Chen is drawing a route for diversion of water at this time.

"This is a mountain and a river, you can't open the mountain, you should go around."

"It's too time-consuming to make a detour, so the big water here can be divided into a dozen streams and made smaller, so that it can pass near the farmland and irrigate the crops along a line."

"This big tide is a big water from the canal wharf, whether it flows into the Yangtze River or the Yellow River, I am afraid that it will not work."

"Let it stretch for hundreds of miles, give him space to accommodate, and finally go back to the canal, so that the water can be solved, and the canal will not be less water......"

Draining water flow is an extremely brain-intensive task.

Everywhere the water is directed, it is necessary to think about whether it can be brought here and whether it will cause harm to the people.

Zhu Chen drew lines while thinking about it, and worked like this until the evening, and Zhu Chen was able to get it right.

"Whew, it's finally good."

"The diversion of water is completed, the large water flows into hundreds of streams, and then passes through the fertile fields from all over the country, and the large water is turned into small streams, so that the tide can be solved, and it can also irrigate the fertile fields for the people."

There was a smile on Zhu Chen's face, in fact, he didn't understand geography, but with the rewards given by the system, he actually had a clear understanding and consideration of water drainage.

I have to say it's amazing.

"When the old man comes tomorrow, show him this scroll again, if it can be done, it will be considered for the benefit of the people, if it can't be tempered." Zhu Chen was in a good state of mind, and after cleaning up, he went back to the house to sleep.

……

At the same time, not long after Zhu Chen fell asleep, a news of an eight-hundred-mile urgency came from outside the palace.

A eunuch knelt outside the old man's bedroom, holding aloft the 800-mile expedited letter, and shouted urgently: "Emperor, Hangzhou's 800-mile expedited, 800-mile expedited ......."

Zhu Di is a man of war, his sleep is very shallow, and he can hear the slightest disturbance, at this time the eunuch was shouting outside, and when he heard the urgency of eight hundred miles, he stood up suddenly, lifted the quilt, and walked briskly outside.

"What are you yelling about? Show me! The old man said in a deep voice.

The eunuch hurriedly handed the letter to Zhu Di, Zhu Di opened it and looked at it, and his expression suddenly changed, and his already majestic face looked even more cloudy!

Killing intent is brewing.

Tiger, it's going to eat people.

The eight-hundred-mile urgent letter was thrown at the feet of the old man, and he shouted angrily: "The prefect of Hangzhou is made of his mother's paste? The storm lasted for several days, and he didn't even think about guarding against the embankment? How did he become this official? ”

Burst!

Now Hangzhou has been a heavy rain for several days, the water level has risen sharply, resulting in a big wind tide, and now the big wind tide has not subsided, if it breaks again, it will be a disaster.

In the four flooded counties, at least half of the people will be killed or injured.

If the flood is not dealt with in time, the corpses will be soaked in the water for a long time, and then a large plague will be caused, and the situation will be even more difficult to control.

So at the moment, the most important issue is to control the water, and as for the disaster relief policy, it has been issued long ago.

"Go, go, go and find those civil officials, I am waiting for them in the study." Zhu Di's face was gloomy.

Several eunuchs didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly ran outside the palace to deliver the decree.

Soon, Yang Shiqi and other senior officials entered the palace overnight to discuss state affairs, and the prince also hurriedly came.

As soon as they entered the study room, under the flickering candlelight, Zhu Di stared at them: "The news is known, right?" The embankment broke, and I quickly thought about it and thought of a route to divert the water, otherwise when the plague came, the people of the four counties would all die. ”

"If you can't think of it, don't eat, don't sleep, just sit here and think!"

"And you, prince, the prefect of Hangzhou is a princeling who keeps talking." Zhu Di sneered.

Although it has not been found out whether the prefect of Hangzhou is a corrupt official for the time being, he knows that there is a big trend, but he is not wary of the dam breach, which is incompetence.

Being an official but incompetent is a crime, and the prince just doesn't know people.

The fat on the prince's face was trembling, cold sweat broke out, and he hurriedly said: "Dad, we want to, we want to ......"

Zhu Di had a gloomy face and sat aside: "Hurry up and think." ”

Although the old man is brutal, easy to kill, and rebels against the throne, it does not prevent him from being a good emperor who attaches importance to the people and the people's livelihood, otherwise there would be no such thing as Yongle Shengshi.

On the first day of his ascension to the throne, the old man told his children and grandchildren that we must work hard, otherwise the people will call us thieves.

The people of the four counties, if they all die, won't his Zhu Di's backbone be punctured?

In this way, the prince and the civil officials discussed from late at night until dawn, but the drainage of water flow is a very complicated matter, and every step must be considered in all aspects, otherwise it will cause other disasters.

As a result, the civil servants did not advance quickly.

The old man sat aside, closed his eyes and listened to the chatter of the civil officials, but he did not come up with a route to control the water, which made Zhu Di's heart become extremely irritable.

"I'll go out for a walk, and you go on." Zhu Di said in a deep voice, and walked out directly.

Seeing that the old man was gone, the prince couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and looked at Yang Shiqi and the others: "Quick, continue to think of a way, the prefect of Hangzhou is incompetent, and our center must quickly come up with a plan." ”

……

Before he knew it, the old man walked out of the palace gate of the Forbidden City and walked towards West Street.

There, is Zhu Chen's residence.

At this time, it was early in the morning, and the stinky boy must not have gotten up yet.

Zhu Di thought in his heart, walked quickly towards the small courtyard, and Zhu Di, who had stayed up all night, did not look listless, still with a straight back and did not look tired.

I knocked on the door a few times, but I didn't see the kid come to open the door, and he was really sleeping.

Zhu Di smiled, and Bang Bang Bang Bang knocked harder and harder.

The door was finally opened, and Zhu Chen appeared in front of Zhu Di, sleepy-eyed: "Old man, are you here?" ”

"I'm lazy every day, I asked you to send you the drawings yesterday, how do you see it, have you come up with a good way to control the water?" Zhu Di said goodbye and walked in directly.

The civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty didn't come up with it, and Zhu Di didn't have much hope for Zhu Chen, but just wanted to see Zhu Chen's homework.

Speaking of this, Zhu Chen became a little interested, and hurriedly handed the drawing he had drawn yesterday to Zhu Di: "Old man, how about you look." ”

After that, I looked forward to it.

Even if he can get a good word from the old man, Zhu Chen feels comfortable.

Zhu Di was a little surprised, took the drawings in Zhu Chen's hand, and then spread them out on the table.

On the clear picture scroll, the great rivers and mountains of Hangzhou are reflected, and around these rivers and mountains, there are also thin lines.

These thin lines, like streams running through them, dredge the floods caused by the great wind tide.

Zhu Di stared at it carefully, and his originally frowning expression was rarely soothed......
