The water level of the Han River has skyrocketed, and the coastal state capitals have been affected, and only Anlu Prefecture has organized people to protect the berm, but this is an errand that cannot be tolerated in the slightest.

In the next few days, even any problem in any section of the river could lead to devastating disasters such as levee bursts.

Although the state and county yamen ignored this, but there was a call for the Xingwang Palace, and the Xingwang Mansion had won the hearts of the people at the beginning of the year to exterminate the thieves, and this time the Wangfu reacted quickly and disregarded its own interests, sticking to all the dangerous river sections, and the local gentry and people all wholeheartedly supported it, even if the government did not come forward, the flood relief work was also carried out in an orderly manner.

The third day after the flood.

Floodwaters are still raging, but the water level is starting to drop, and some embankments that are on the verge of bursting have been saved by urgently throwing sandbags and reinforcing them.

On this morning, Zhu Hao, on behalf of local merchants, went up to the river embankment to distribute condolences to the people involved in the flood relief, and finally went to the berm headquarters, that is, in a thatched hut, and met Tang Yin, who was tired after a few days of perseverance.

"It's okay, it's okay......"

Tang Yin was seriously lacking in sleep and spoke incoherently.

Zhu Hao asked, "Mr. Tang hasn't gone back to rest in the past two days?" ”

Tang Yin shook his head: "I went back to the city yesterday afternoon and slept for two hours, I really couldn't rest assured, and I came back in the evening." ”

How can you be so responsible......

This is a situation that Zhu Hao didn't expect before.

Let an old Confucian who has been disappointed in his career for half his life rekindle his sense of responsibility for the country and the people, Zhu Hao feels that he has done something more awesome than changing history, that is, reshaping the worldview of a poor scholar who faces life negatively.

Tang Yin took Zhu Hao out of the shed and went to check the nearby embankments that were in danger.

Wherever the two of them passed, everyone greeted each other with a smile, or hugged their fists, or bowed, paying high respect, and where Tang Yin appeared, whether it was the guards of the palace, craftsmen or ordinary people, there was no lazy one.

"The water level has finally gone down a little ......"

Tang Yin had a little comfort on his face.

Zhu Hao looked at the surging river and said with a smile: "How is it?" Sir, are you full of accomplishment? Under your leadership, there was no condition in the dozens of miles of embankments in Anlu, on the contrary, there were a lot of property and human and animal losses in the upper and lower reaches of the Han River, which was all due to Mr. ”

Tang Yin waved his hand and casually found a big stone on the river embankment and sat down: "Don't dare to take credit, this credit should belong to you." ”

Zhu Hao shook his head, and then said softly: "I heard that King Xing will bring the prince to the river embankment to inspect today, you should make preparations." ”

"King Xing? Are you saying that the son of the world will follow? Tang Yin was surprised.

When the bandits were exterminated, King Xing also came to the city in person, but that was after the victory of the war was confirmed, and he did not bring the son with him.

Now that King Xing actually brought Zhu Si to inspect the river embankment, he was not afraid of danger?

Zhu Hao said: "I learned from the doctor who treated King Xing that King Xing's health has been poor recently, and he is often bedridden, probably he feels that his time is short, so he pondered to train the son of the world to become a talent earlier, many times even if he is tired and hard, and will take some risks, he still does it without hesitation." ”

Tang Yin bowed slightly, indicating that he understood.

As he spoke, there was a commotion behind the embankment.

Tang Yin hurriedly got up, thinking that it was someone from Xingwangfu, but only after Lu Song came to report that it was someone from the state government.

"It was Zhang Zhizhou who brought people here, saying that they were coming to take a walk on the embankment and comfort the people involved in the flood relief." Lu Song said with a little disdain.

Tang Yin said: "What is this? Pick up credit later? ”

Lu Song asked: "Mr. see or not?" ”

"Nope."

Tang Yin immediately refused, and then glanced at Zhu Hao, "What do you think?" ”

Zhu Hao smiled: "It's up to you to decide whether you see it or not, it's okay if you don't see it, even if Xingwangfu shows goodwill to the state government, he will still treat Xingwangfu as an enemy...... Such a person does not need to give him a good look. ”

Tang Yin and Lu Song listened and both nodded in agreement with Zhu Hao's statement.

The state government chose to stand by in this disaster prevention, on the one hand, because Zhang Yezheng of Xinzhizhou wanted to relieve the disaster afterwards, make political achievements, and facilitate the disaster relief and post-disaster reconstruction funds allocated by the greedy Mo court, and another important reason was that he came to Anlu to work against Xingwangfu, and Zhang Yezheng did not want to work with Xingwangfu to relieve the disaster, so as to avoid the backers behind him from having an opinion of him.

Let you go to Anlu to monitor Xingwangfu, and you go to fight the flood with Xingwangfu? Do you still want to be an official?

At present, no matter what attitude Xingwangfu has towards Zhang Yezheng, it can't change Zhang Yezheng's attitude of choosing to be incompatible with Xingwangfu, so why does Xingwangfu want to stick to people's cold butts with a hot face?

You Zhang Yezheng have the ability to fight against the open fire of Xingwangfu, but do you dare?

So much so that the local parents went to the river embankment to inspect, and deliberately chose the section of the river where Tang Yin's disaster relief headquarters was located, but Tang Yin and the people in Xingwangfu ignored Zhang Yezheng at all.

Although the people did not dare to snub the government, and the gentry came forward to receive them warmly, the Xing Wangfu did not take Zhang Yezheng seriously at all.

……

……

Zhu Hao and Tang Yin continued to talk about things on the riverbank.

Tang Yin said: "I heard that the area of the ferry port is almost completely flooded, you don't have any loss, right?" Anyway, you can predict the flood in advance, and you don't expect to suffer......"

Zhu Hao took the Mazha handed by Lu Song, sat down and said, "You said everything, what else do I say?" ”

"Okay, it's really yours, you have the courage and knowledge, and you care about the safety of the local people, it seems that I blamed you before, and I think you kid is too scheming...... But from the two things of exterminating bandits and disaster relief, it can be seen that you have very good intentions, and you will not lose to me at all in serving the country and the people. ”

Tang Yin was full of praise, but Zhu Hao was very awkward when he heard it.

He would rather have nothing to do with Tang Yin to raise the bar and play tricks, but now Tang Yin said good things to compliment him, making him feel that it was not the arrogant Tang Yin in front of him.

"I didn't expect that I would be able to do something practical for the people when I was old, and the hard work of the past few days was worth it." Tang Yin had a great satisfaction on his face.

Zhu Hao said: "That sir, if you have the opportunity to be an official in the court in the future, will you gladly accept it?" ”

"Of course you have to accept it, why not?"

In front of Zhu Hao, Tang Yin was no longer embarrassed, and he could say whatever he wanted.

Zhu Hao smiled: "This is really not like you in my understanding...... In the past, you would have said that you had no intention of pursuing a career, or made a lot of excuses that being an official was not for you. ”

Tang Yin stood up and saw Zhu Hao sitting on the maza, a little envious, Lu Song saw this and quickly got up and handed over his maza to Tang Yin.

Tang Yin happily took Mazha and sat side by side with Zhu Hao, with a little satisfaction on his face.

"Needless to say, who doesn't want to gain fame and fortune? I also participated in the imperial examination back then, but it was only because I was treated unfairly that I was disappointed in my career...... Everyone has thought about a comfortable life, and they all want to be admired by the world, and they don't have to look up to people wherever they go...... It's easy to say, but it's hard to achieve. ”

In Tang Yin's meaning, this official is not something I can be if I want to.

Who will be for me?

Zhu Hao looked at the turbid waves in front of him: "I think that Mr. will definitely have the opportunity to become an official in the future, and Xingwangfu will definitely not be so silent forever, and he can soar to the sky if he has the opportunity." ”

"This is what you calculated again?"

Tang Yin looked at Zhu Hao with interest.

In the matter of the flood, Tang Yin found that Zhu Hao not only had the ability to figure out people's hearts, but also had the ability to calculate the heavenly machine.

Zhu Hao smiled: "Sort of." When I say that, do you expect a little more from your husband? ”

Tang Yin hurriedly glanced at Lu Song, who was monitoring the movements of the state officials on the other side of the embankment, and after making sure that the other party didn't hear it, he nodded with satisfaction: "If it's really as you say, then today's hard work will be worth it!" ”

The old and young are now considered friends from their hearts, they can say anything, and they actually sit together to discuss the possibility of doing things for Xingwangfu and whether they will be mixed up with the dragon's work in the future.

……

……

As the noon passed, the water level of the Han River dropped further.

Zhang Yezheng left early after finding that he was bored on the embankment, and the officials of the state government were afraid that there would be a mistake in the embankment, so they let themselves fold in this place, after all, as long as it is a levee, the height is far more than the surrounding terrain, and now the soaring Han water is equivalent to a hanging river on land.

If the dam bursts and the water rushes in, even if the people on the dam are lucky enough not to be swept away by the flood, they will not be able to return to the city.

Half an hour after the people of the state government left, the car of Xingwangfu finally arrived.

Zhu Youqi and Zhu Si, father and son, accompanied by Yuan Zonggao, Zhang Zuo and other officials of the palace, came to the embankment, Zhu Hao also saw Zhu San, who was dressed in men's clothes, a pair of swarthy eyes, and was extremely happy.

"Zhu Hao, you're also there."

When Zhu San saw Zhu Hao, his eyes lit up, and he didn't care about etiquette at all, and shouted loudly.

Zhu Youqi glared at his daughter, and then stepped forward to accept Tang Yin and Zhu Hao's salute.

"Two of you are exempt, the embankment is okay today, right?"

Zhu Youqi asked with concern.

Hearing that King Xing had arrived, the people who participated in the flood relief were very excited.

No one came to watch, but consciously sped up the speed of carrying the sandbags at hand.

"We have not yet received any reports of danger, but because the water level remains at a high line, the danger still exists...... Yesterday, several sections of the river embankment were almost washed away by floods, but fortunately, the palace urgently dispatched more than 400 people to the past, plus more than 6,000 local people, and constantly blocked them with sandbags, which was able to control the dangerous situation. ”

Yuan Zonggao said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to be so good at water control, Bohu." ”

Tang Yin hurriedly waved his hand: "Mr. Yuan has won the award, and he doesn't understand these things at all, but fortunately, Zhu Hao mentioned it, plus the help of the royal palace, and tens of thousands of local people obeyed orders and accepted dispatches, so they got lucky......"

"Haha."

Zhu Youqi didn't expect Tang Yin, who had always been unruly, to be so modest, so he immediately patted his son's shoulder, met Zhu Si's puzzled gaze, and earnestly taught: "Shizi, you have to remember one thing, Mr. Tang is a great talent in the world, you must not only learn his full strategy, but also learn his humility in the world." ”

Zhu Sixiao's face was full of admiration: "The child remembers." ”

"Zhu Hao, you have also worked hard."

Zhu Youqi praised Tang Yin, and did not forget to praise Zhu Hao.

Others can't see Zhu Hao's credit, but Zhu Youqi can see it clearly.

Yuan Zonggao said: "King Xing, it is better for Brother Bohu to personally take you to inspect the river embankment, so that the people can receive the blessing of King Xing's mansion." ”

Zhu Youqi came to the embankment just to gain political bargaining chips, and nodded happily when he heard this: "Okay, by the way, the prince is also here." ”
