Chapter 515: Is This a Stone or Tofu?
Zhou Guangli exclaimed, full of denials and explanations.
In the end, he had long forgotten that Zhu Yunxi's trip was a matter of using a fake identity.
The river workers were attracted by his voice, and they were shocked that Zhou Guangli actually knelt in front of a young man.
The river workers under the embankment silently surrounded them.
The officials here were also uneasy, and their eyes moved solemnly to this side.
Zhou Guangli, who was kneeling on the ground, only felt a chill in the back of his head at this moment, and countless sweat had already burst out of his back in an instant, wetting his underwear.
On his forehead, beads of sweat the size of beans continued to drip down.
Originally, how firm he said in front of the imperial grandson, how much fear he had in his heart at this time.
The grandson is like me.
At the beginning, His Majesty's will was transmitted to Henan Province.
What he has committed today is the sin of deceit.
It's a capital offense!
Zhou Guangli said in a panic: "Your Highness! The minister swears by the family, and the minister will never tell a lie. This bluestone strip ...... Why is the bluestone strip like this, the minister really doesn't know. ”
Zhu Yunxi's eyes were gloomy as ink, but he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
The situation that was almost about to go to the Silk Road was now unexpectedly opened.
He ignored Zhou Guangli, who kept swearing and explaining.
Three steps and two steps.
Under the gaze of Wang Xinling, whose eyes widened, Zhu Yunxi stretched out his hand and pressed it decisively on the bluestone bar.
Start with.
Zhu Yunxi's brows were already tightly furrowed.
The eyebrows are full of water, and the eyes are rippling.
Bluestone is one of the most used materials in the imperial court.
Whether it is to build a city or build the foundation of the government, it needs to be used.
Because it is used a lot, it seems ordinary, and people pay little attention to it.
However, the lack of attention does not mean that people are unfamiliar with it.
After starting it, the lubrication from the palm of the palm and the trace of greasy and greasy feeling were clearly transmitted to Zhu Yunxi.
It's like the stone has been soaked in oil for countless years before it is scooped up.
After Zhu Yunxi was silent for a while, he withdrew his hand and turned it into a fist and turned his back behind him.
"Tear this dam open!"
With his order, Wang Xinling immediately turned around and shouted: "The imperial grandson has an order, open this dam!" ”
The imperial grandson is here?
That young man in brocade turned out to be His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson!
Looking at Mr. Zhou, who was kneeling on the ground, the river workers around him believed that this man was not lying.
And the soap official who asked Zhu Yunxi for his identity credential at the beginning was already weak in the crowd and fell to the ground.
"It's over, it's over!"
"I actually blocked the way of my grandson......"
The scene was already agitated because Wang Xinling reported Zhu Yunxi's true identity.
Tian Mai immediately led people to climb to the top of the dam and took out a sign from his arms: "Open the dam!" ”
No one could see what was written on the sign held up by Tian Mai in his hand.
But in the sun, the yellow and bright sign reflected the light, but it gave everyone an invisible sense of oppression.
The rivermen don't know each other.
But the officials present knew it.
It must have been the gold medal that His Majesty gave His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson.
The officials reacted immediately.
"Follow the order of the grandson and open the dam!"
"Quick! All up! ”
The officials shouted, and they had already rushed to the bottom of the dam with their tools.
Most of these officials on the river are personally involved in the management of the river.
When I started working, I didn't dare to hesitate and be lazy.
As the officials took the lead, the river workers finally understood that the young man in brocade was really the rumored His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson.
Led by the foreman, the river workers walked to the dam in groups and began to tear it down.
Zhu Yunxi was protected by Tian Mai, who walked down from the dam, and withdrew some distance towards the side.
Looking at the dam in front of you, which was filled with people.
Zhu Yunxi waved his hand and pointed: "Take a piece of bluestone." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a river worker who could not rush to the front of the dam immediately dropped his tools, spread his legs and rushed into the crowd in front of the dam.
In just the blink of an eye, the river worker dragged a whole bluestone strip out of the crowd and dragged the bluestone strip all the way to Zhu Yunxi.
"His Royal Highness Taisun, this is a bluestone strip."
As he spoke, the river worker lowered his head and smiled innocently, bowed and pushed aside.
The emperor's grandson is a good person!
Since the construction of the river began, the government has never deducted half of their wages and a mouthful of grain.
The daily rations, the monthly construction period, are distributed on time.
These days are about to enter winter, and the government has sent over the cotton clothes needed after the winter early, and now they are all stored in the warehouse.
I heard that the government now loves the river workers so much because His Royal Highness the Imperial Prince in the court loves the people of the world.
The governance of the river was also decided by His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun.
The things that the imperial grandson was worried about, he couldn't help himself, but it was more than enough to move a bluestone strip over.
Zhu Yunxi just looked at the river worker with his head down with some confusion.
These people know their identities and are not afraid?
Without much thought, he walked over to the bluestone strip that lay on the ground.
Wang Xinling and Tian Mai surrounded him.
A group of officials on the river also surrounded them.
"Broken?"
Wang Xinling looked at the oily bluestone strips on the ground and muttered to himself in a low voice.
Immediately, he stepped forward and pushed the bluestone strip with his foot.
After that, everyone saw that in his direction, a corner of the bluestone strip had broken and fallen off a piece the size of a forearm.
Tian Maiben immediately answered: "It's thrown on the ground, and it's also muddy here, so the bluestone won't be so brittle......"
He asked himself a question, then looked up.
"Get the sledgehammer."
Tian Mai looked at a sledgehammer used by the river workers and waved his hand.
His subordinates hurriedly stepped forward and fetched the sledgehammer.
Tian Mai held the handle with both hands and looked up at Zhu Yunxi: "Your Highness, please avoid it a little." ”
Zhu Yunxi understood himself, was blocked by Wang Xinling, and took several steps back.
Tian Mai saw the surrounding situation at this time, so he picked up the sledgehammer and raised it high on his back.
Drink!
He let out a low cry, and the sledgehammer broke through the air and made a whirring sound.
In an instant, in people's sight, the sledgehammer had already smashed heavily on the bluestone bar.
With a muffled sound one after another.
In front of everyone's eyes, a whole strip of bluestone turned out to be torn apart, as fragile as a clod of soil.
However, what surprised everyone even more was that the fractured surface of these bluestones was also oily and greasy, without the dry and gritty feeling of a stone when it first opened.
"There's something wrong with this bluestone!"
There was a shout from the crowd.
Everyone could see that there was something wrong with the bluestone strips used in the river.
The crowd exploded with a bang.
However, the problem with bluestone has just been discovered here.
There was also a burst of exclamation and shock from the dam.
"All the bluestones in the dam are broken!"
"It's all shattered!"
It was so strong that the bluestone that was the main body of the dam was shattered.
was just an exclamation at the beginning of the beginning, and Zhu Yunxi's face was already like ink.
Wang Xinling has already opened the way in front of the head: "Let go!" Let's make it! ”
He opened the way in front of his head, and Zhu Yunxi walked behind.
After a while, the two led a large group of people to the dam that had been opened.
"It's so shocking!"
Standing on the edge of the top of the dam, Wang Xinling let out a sigh of relief, his face full of shock, his eyes widening.
Zhu Yunxi's eyes also flashed with a hint of cold and murderous aura.
In the entire area where the dam was torn open, the bluestone strips in the dam that should have fit together perfectly were shattered one by one.
Smash!
Instead of breaking, shattering.
It is almost impossible to find a bluestone larger than a human head.
"It can't be!"
"How so? What the hell is going on?"
Zhou Guangli, who was originally kneeling under the dam, didn't know when he climbed to the dam, lying on the edge of being picked up, looking at the shattered bluestone strips below, and couldn't stop chanting.
When the governor of the river Yamen built the dam, he even used a group of river veterans on both sides of the river, who are known as water monkeys.
Dive underwater to secure these bluestone bars.
And now, this scene in front of me.
Not only shocked Zhu Yunxi, but also Wang Xinling and Zhou Guangli.
Everyone, everyone who saw the scene in front of them, had an incredible expression.
"Check!"
"Look at the unused bluestone strips on the river!"
Zhu Yunxi stood on the dam, looked back at the crowd above and below the dam, and said in a cold tone.
In fact, there is no need for him to command at this time.
The news reached the outermost periphery, and there were already people looking for the bluestone strips piled up everywhere.
A sledgehammer is lifted.
One by one, the hammer heads fell on the bluestone bars.
Countless muffled sounds sounded under the river embankment at the same time.
"Broken!"
"It's all broken!"
"If you put it on the soft clay, it won't be broken!"
Everyone knows exactly what the problem is in this river accident.
Where is this solid bluestone bar, this is clearly a tofu block!
"Uncle! You died unjustly! ”
"Third child, the grandson has taken us to find the reason."
"Woo woo woo ......"
When the shock was over, there were bursts of cries from the crowd.
The upper Shaanzhou dam and dam were destroyed, and the water washed down the river. On the side of Mengjin County, the dam did not work, and the water continued to flow.
A lot of people died here.
Because they did not take refuge on the dam in time, they did not run fast enough on the embankment, and countless people were swept into the water.
For a moment, the embankment was full of crying.
Zhu Yunxi's face turned pale.
The problem is obvious.
There was a problem with the bluestone used to build the dam, and it was supposed to be a strong bluestone, but it was shattered for some reason. As a result, the dam appears to have changed from the outside, but from the inside it is broken.
When the water in the upper reaches falls, there will be a collapse of the whole line after a few strokes.
However, how did the dam in the upper reaches of Shaanzhou Prefecture be destroyed without the impact of the flood?
But now the situation is open.
Now we only need to trace the origin of these bluestones, from the source all the way to the time when they are transported to the river, and find out which side has gone wrong, and why these bluestones have become so fragile.
"Keep looking!"
Zhu Yunxi spoke coldly.
Tian Mai's eyes were cold, and there was a strong murderous aura in his edge.
As a secret guard, he has made a lot of assumptions about the accident that happened on the river.
Either the construction method is wrong, or someone deliberately destroys the embankment.
Lots of possibilities.
The only thing he didn't expect was that he could make a fuss about this bluestone.
Obviously, the people who do these things know what the consequences will be.
The dam was washed away, the river was delayed, and even the need to start from scratch had to be restarted, which would have incalculable consequences in the court.
The people who did all this must be clear.
This sin.
Sins are unforgivable!
For the first time, Tian Mai took the initiative to kill spontaneously.
This is disregarding the fate and future of the entire country, and this is going against the whole world.
"Your Highness, what should I do now?"
Wang Xinling stood on the dam, looking at the chaotic crowd below the dam, looking at the river workers who were angry because they knew the truth about the accident, and asked in a low voice.
Zhu Yunxirao's heart is becoming more and more calm, and after finally knowing the reason, the anger in his heart is also difficult to calm.
"Zhou Guangli was imprisoned, and all those involved in the source of the bluestone strips transported to the river embankment for nuclear inspection were all left in the eucalyptus pending trial."
"Send someone to find Gao Yangzhi and ask them to speed up their journey to Mengjin County."
"Send the Taisun Order, let Yu Ma mobilize troops and horses to come to Henan Mansion."
Zhu Yunxi suppressed the anger in his heart and kept saying instructions one by one.
The bluestone of Henan Province is all produced in Yanshi County.
The root of the chaos is inseparable from Henan Mansion.
And the rumor that circulated throughout Henan Province was also the most ferocious in Henan Province.
He looked up at the high embankment, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Zhou Guangli was no longer silent at this time.
When he saw the shattered bluestones with his own eyes, he knew that he was completely hopeless.
He resented those who had caused all this, but at the same time he resented himself for opening his eyes a little more to be able to discern the materials needed on these rivers a little more closely.
It's just that it's too late now.
The dams and dams that the imperial court spent countless money and grain to build have now disappeared with the flood.
When the originally familiar official clasped Zhou Guangli with a calm face, he was still silent.
When he was escorted past Zhu Yunxi.
Zhou Guangli stubbornly stopped.
He turned his head sideways and looked at the young man in brocade in front of him.
"Your Highness, the minister is incompetent, and he is ashamed of the emperor's grace."
Zhu Yunxi's eyes were calm, just quietly staring at Zhou Guangli with a face full of remorse: "The court is fair, but the mistake of negligence can't be avoided." ”
At the moment of the new policy, the imperial court is now increasingly strengthening the review and requirements for officials.
Zhou Guangli nodded: "Sinner...... Shame on Your Highness...... But His Royal Highness is determined to find out why the accident occurred in the territory of Shaanzhou Mansion! ”
The official who escorted Zhou Guangli no longer gave him a chance to speak, and dragged him down the dam.
Zhou Guangli could only shout loudly.
The sound gradually dissipated, and so did the wind blowing on the river.
