Chapter 218: The Clever One was confused for a while
Yuan Xiude didn't want to stay here anymore, so he beckoned the official to throw him out.
Even though Mu Cailiang knelt down, he still did not agree to his request directly.
Now that the upstream water is rising wildly, one day later, there will be big problems.
Yuan Xiude clearly knew that he was a person who was selfish to the extreme, so he would rather flood tens of thousands of people downstream than lose his black hat.
But in the management of water conservancy, he really admires Mu Cailiang.
But Mu Cailiang softened in front of him, for Yuan Xiude, it shouldn't be like this.
He wanted Mu Cailiang to really obey him once.
"Why did you kneel......"
Yuan Xiude muttered in his mouth, and he looked at the documents on the table a little uncertain.
After much thought, a long sigh followed.
Yuan Xiude crumpled the paper and threw it aside.
He sharpened his pen and rewrote the message.
Yuan Xiude was unwilling to be merciful to the Jingren downstream, but he couldn't be ruthless when it came to Mu Cailiang's kneeling.
Because that person is a pastor.
He also thought carefully about why Mu Cailiang would find him to say this, but he didn't want to think about it anymore.
He Yuan Xiude only needs to be good for him!
……
It was prosperous for five years, and it was the first day of June.
To the north of the Tongtian River, the water rose upstream, flooding the major markets, and Shangjing City was not spared, but its impact was not deep, because the water level had not yet reached a particularly serious time.
Yuan Xiude, who was the governor of Jianghe, did not panic when he learned of this.
At noon on this day, Mu Cailiang came to the gate, and he waited for a day, but he did not see anyone come to open the gate and release water.
"He really did ......"
Not in advance!
Mu Cailiang opened his mouth, but he was in a trance.
He probably guessed the current situation upstream, and immediately went to various places to participate in flood control and fight floods with local governments.
And down there.
The group came to the last market of the trip.
The old man on the side spoke: "Childe, it's only here." ”
The man who was called Gongzi nodded and said, "Let the people below disperse the people quickly, the time to open the gate should not be far away." ”
A group of dozens of people began to visit everywhere.
People were shocked when they heard that the sluice gate was going to be opened to release water, but then they doubted the identity of the person in front of them.
"Are you from the government?"
I saw that the accompanying person took out a waist tag with an official character printed on it.
The cloudy old man looked at the waist card and recognized it at a glance.
"You are ......"
"It's good that the old man knows."
The old man's eyes suddenly filled with tears.
He recognized the waist card!
It's the official card of Jing Shi!
The opening date of the gate was set at noon on the second day of the sixth month.
But on the night of the first day of June, Kyochu blamed him.
"Yuan Xiude! What do you eat! ”
Yuan Xiude, who was sitting in the hall, looked at the person who came, this person was the Dushui Supervisor and Supervisor, and he came here to punish his crimes.
"The prison guards are angry."
Yuan Xiude said: "The original opening time is tomorrow at noon, the document has been issued, and there is no reason to withdraw it. ”
The prison army glared angrily and said, "You dare to prevaricate this prison army with such words!" Go open the floodgates and release the water! I tell you, the king is very dissatisfied with this, and if you still want to live, go and open the floodgates and release the water. ”
Yuan Xiude looked at the prison guard, he was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head.
"The paperwork has been sent."
He didn't pay attention to this superintendent at all, and when he saw that the other party wanted to do something, he sent someone to blast him out.
The official seal is here with him, even if he is a prison army, there is still no way to take care of the matter of opening the sluice gate and releasing water.
In Yuan Xiude's opinion, this matter is only a matter of downgrading to the sky, because although the upstream is flooding, it is not serious.
In his opinion, if he can convince Mu Cailiang of him, it is worth more than anything else.
In the fifth year of prosperity, the second day of the sixth month, noon!
It's not too early, it's not too late.
"Open the gates!"
As Yuan Xiude waved the flag in his hand, hundreds of officials pulled the iron chains, only to see the embankment gradually collapse under the vibration.
The water gushed out, like a heavenly river bursting its banks.
"Whoa......
The torrent swept into the wind, Yuan Xiude swayed for a moment, stabilized his body and took two steps back.
He breathed a long sigh of relief, and muttered in his mouth: "Mu Cailiang, this official has done his ...... benevolence and righteousness."
But this matter is not as simple as imagined.
It was only half a moment after the gate was opened, and someone came to report.
"Lord Governor, the people downstream are done!"
Yuan Xiude was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but soon calmed down again, as if he had expected it a long time ago.
"Who did it?" Yuan Xiude asked.
The official who made the announcement frowned, and opened his mouth several times, but he did not dare to speak.
"That group of people is well-trained, and they blocked the news from the beginning, not like ordinary people, I'm afraid ......"
Yuan Xiucheng saw that he wanted to speak and stopped, frowned and said, "Say!" ”
The official bowed his head and said, "I'm afraid it's the rebels!" ”
Yuan Xiucheng was in a trance for a moment.
He breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he might not be able to escape this time.
……
Wherever the flood passed, all the houses and trees were submerged, and the markets were all washed away by muddy water, and in just half a day, all the places downstream were submerged by the flood.
Yuan Xiucheng bore the first responsibility, and was dismissed from the post of governor of the river, and then listened to the fate.
The Jingren who were supposed to die in the flood survived, and it stands to reason that there should be an outpouring of displaced people......
But after the gate was opened that day, in the southern region, there was a rebel army, which absorbed all the displaced people.
In just one day, this group of rebels captured the Yamen of Tongshun Mansion and rose immediately.
The news soon spread to Shangjing.
After careful questioning, it was revealed that there were more than 20,000 displaced people, including women, children, and children, and more than 10,000 people who had been absorbed by the rebels.
"Bastard!"
Zhao Zhen was furious and immediately sent troops to encircle and suppress the rebels.
"Who was in charge of this at the time!?"
Zhao Zhen was furious, so he put Yuan Xiude in prison and beheaded him every day.
……
Yuan Xiude's house was raided and pushed to the execution ground on the third day.
On this day, the periphery of the execution ground was full of people, all looking at the governor of Jianghe, who had been reduced to a prisoner.
Makisai Liang also came, and he squeezed to the front.
Yuan Xiude knelt on the platform, his gaze swept over many people, and finally fell on Mu Cailiang in the crowd.
He suddenly smiled, although he was unwilling before, but at this time, all kinds of emotions have become meaningless things.
Yuan Xiude only asked one sentence, "I, Yuan Xiude, look down on everyone, but I still want to ask, this time, do you obey this official?" ”
Mu Cailiang opened his mouth, he looked at Yuan Xiude, and suddenly felt that this person seemed to be very different from what he had ever known.
His eyes were cloudy, he closed his eyes and said a word.
"Yes."
Yuan Xiude suddenly burst out laughing, accompanied by bursts of laughter.
The long knife in the prisoner's hand was also cut off.
He was smart for a lifetime, but he was confused for a while.
But......
Is it really just a momentary confusion?
