Chapter 204: I'm going to blow up the mountain

Xie Jiang is the third son of the Marquis of Changning, twenty-two years old this year, among the children of the Emperor Jingxun, he is the core figure, he was quite energetic when he first entered the office, he rushed to do any work, and after doing it for a month, he felt that this job was so boring, so he began to mess up, and paid a sum of money to his colleagues who were not very good in the family, and asked his colleagues to help him every day.

He was the first batch of people to be cleared in the list of dismissals handed in by Zhao Yunjing, but the Xie family felt that they couldn't afford to lose this person, and Xie Jiang himself felt ashamed, so he went to the emperor with the old marquis to cry, and the emperor was so annoyed that he got his name on the promotion list.

From Dijing to Jiangnan, on the way, he did cause trouble for Zhao Yunjing, and deliberately took the lead in provoking thorns, but, how to say, Zhao Yunjing hit him every time he reduced his dimensionality, and when he reasoned with him, people quoted him from the side, citing the past and the present, and he was speechless, he was not convinced, and wanted to teach a lesson, as soon as he saw Zhao Yunjing's strong arms, and the breath that sank down instantly, he was short of breath all of a sudden.

Along the way, Xie Jiang did not dare to block Zhao Yunjing successfully, but was caught by Zhao Yunjing and taught him a lesson several times, and by now, he is already a die-hard fan of Zhao Yunjing, shouting that he will not return to Beijing, and he will follow Zhao Yunjing wherever he goes.

Now the dozen or so noble children who are following Zhao Yunjing are now in a similar situation to him, from a thorn in the head to a die-hard fan, but Zhao Yunjing's life is never said, and he still shouts every day as if he has been taken some kind of medicine that there is no hunger in the world.

This house is not big or luxurious, it is only three entrances, plus there are only seven or eight rooms in the wings, everyone has two rooms, and there are three or four utility rooms in the backyard, which are cleaned out for the guards to live in.

In Xie Jiang's opinion, this house is ten times better and ten times more spacious than this, but at this moment, he is glad that this house is small enough, otherwise it will be like the Xie family.

When Xie Jiang arrived, Zhao Yunjing was already dressed neatly, and the map of Nanjiang City was spread out on the table.

Zhao Yunjing looked at the top carefully, and pointed his slender fingers on a river: "This is the flood discharge point for the past years, although the downstream is also affected, but it is still under control. ”

Hu Peiran nodded: "I also think it's inappropriate here, so what does Brother Zhao mean?" ”

Zhao Yunjing's fingers slid down the river, stopped at a point, froze, and said: "This Chunlan River, this side is the Qiulan River, and the one outside Nanjiang City is the Donglan River, these three rivers seem to be separated by more than 100 miles, but here, in fact, there is only one mountain.

In the rainy season of Nanjiang City over the years, the rain on the other two sides of the mountain, namely the Chunlan River and the Qiulan River, is not as big as the other side of the mountain, and the drainage is faster than that of the Donglan River. If we flow the water of the Donglan River into the Chunlan River and the Qiulan River, the flooding of Nanjiang City can be effectively alleviated. ”

Xie Jiang heard something wrong, and couldn't help but interject: "Lord Zhao, do you want to vent the flood?" ”

Zhao Yunjing took the time to nod, and continued to discuss with Hu Peiran how to drain the water of the Donglan River, Xie Jiang listened for a while, and when the two discussed one, two, three, and then spoke up: "But Lord Zhao, aren't we here to promote autumn rice?" Why are you still doing things to help with flood relief? That's the matter of the prefect of Nanjiang City, and it can't fight with our eight poles! ”

Zhao Yunjing glanced at him and said lightly: "If the flood does not recede, the people will not be able to sow seeds normally, and the final result is to delay the autumn planting. ”

Xie Jiang reacted, there was no doubt on his face, and he took the initiative to ask them what they could do.

Others also spoke out, saying that they were willing to advance and retreat with Zhao Yunjing.

Zhao Yunjing's face was dyed with a smile: "You also heard it just now, I plan to flow the water of the Donglan River into the two tributaries of Chunlan and Qiulan. There are people living on every side of this mountain, and if you want to divert it, you have to blow up the mountain, and blowing up the mountain will definitely affect the neighboring people. And,"

He paused for a moment, saw that everyone was frowning and listening, and then continued: "Moreover, this diversion plan may not be successful, this mountain may collapse, and the soil will block the three rivers, and when the flood backs up, the entire Nanjiang City and the surrounding areas of Nanjiang City will be in danger." ”

Xie Jiang didn't understand and asked: "The hidden danger is so big, can you change the plan?" ”

"No, this is the fastest and most effective way to discharge the flood, as long as we dare, as long as the Liang Governor agrees."

Xie Jiang suddenly realized: "So the first thing we have to do is to get Governor Liang to agree to let us go to blow up the mountain!" ”

Zhao Yunjing nodded: "Lord Xiao Xie and all of you are from a big family with a head and face in the imperial capital, especially Lord Xiao Xie and Lord Xiao Song, one of you is from the Marquis of Changning, and the other is from the Yong'an Palace, you have a natural identity advantage when communicating with the Liang Governor's Mansion, so the matter of persuading the Liang Governor will be handed over to Xiao Xie and Xiao Song, you two come over, I will repeat the plan to you again......"

After the three of them repeatedly deliberated and rehearsed for half an hour, Xie Jiang and Song Yucheng rushed out of the small mansion in the rain and went straight to the prefect's house in Nanjiang City, while the rest followed Zhao Yunjing out of the city and went straight to the nearest village.

When Governor Liang received the news, everyone was stupid, and couldn't help but slap the table: "It's raining so hard, what does this champion want to do when he goes out of the city now?" Isn't it possible to promote his autumn rice now? Is he a fool? The people are missing, the dead and wounded, and even their lives are almost gone, who has the leisure to listen to his promotion? Nerds are nerds! ”

The other officials also nodded in agreement: "The emperor believes that he is a subordinate official of Wenqu Xing, after all, there is no one in the whole Liang who can read better than him, but I don't believe that he is a great talent." A nerd can only talk on paper, what great talent can he have? Even if he can say one, two, three, could it be that the emperor really dares to do it? If that's the case, wouldn't the emperor treat Daliang and the people as child's play? ”

Governor Liang walked around there and asked his subordinates how long Zhao Yunjing and the others had been out of the city, and whether they had said what they were going to do.

The rain was so heavy, even if Zhao Yunjing and they had something to say, the people in Liang's prefect couldn't hear it, and as soon as he saw Zhao Yunjing going out of the city, he panicked, and immediately came back to report the news, where did he know what to do?

"As soon as the minions saw Lord Zhao, they came back, it should be less than half an hour."

"Quick, whatever they want to do, call people back immediately! This is the emperor's baby bump, but it can't happen to me! What are you still standing? Hurry up, hurry up! ”

Another subordinate rushed over: "My lord, Lord Zhao sent someone over, saying that there is something important to discuss with you!" ”

It's okay to discuss anything with him, as long as people come, Lord Liang's tone is eager: "Please!" ”

As a result, he only saw Xie Jiang and Song Chengyu, and Lord Liang was stupid: "Why is it only the two of you, Lord Zhao?" ”
