Chapter 680

Xiao Changyan recuperated, Xiao Huayong "recovered", Xiao Changfeng followed the traces to trace, but there was no trace of Xiao Juesong's whereabouts, and then he was busy with Xiao Changqing for disaster relief. About five or six days later, Tao Zhuanxian and Zhong Ping went straight to the channel planned Finally dug into.

The two checked carefully from both ends, repeatedly confirmed that it was correct, and after the water could be released, they came to notify Xiao Huayong and Shen Xihe.

"The water can be released tomorrow." Shen Xihe was also very pleasantly surprised.

This matter has always been a knot in their hearts. Besides, although the people have been taking turns digging channels for the past few days, they have been soaked in the water. Even though they were scratching, they refused to rest. No matter how timely the wound was cleaned, it would still have a tendency to fester. Shen Xihe could only ensure their food and medicine.

It is a relief for anyone to be able to end it as soon as possible.

"Yes, the water can be released tomorrow, but I discussed with Mr. Tao that we still need to sacrifice to the river god first, and then release the water." Zhong Pingzhi suggested.

"It should be like this, so let the county magistrate arrange it, Tao Gong and Zhong Gong have a good rest for a day." Xiao Huayong nodded.

"Sacrificing to the River God, can His Highness the Crown Prince come in person? Mr. Tao and I heard that the common people want to see His Highness the Crown Prince." For the mysterious Xiao Huayong who came all the way with a sick body and was guided by the gods, the common people I am still very curious, and also respect and grateful from the bottom of my heart.

Of course, they have been fighting on the front line with them all the time, and Xiao Changqing, the letter king who never went down, they are also very moved, and their respect for Emperor Youning is even deeper, because Xiao Huayong and Xiao Changqing are both His Majesty's princes, and the prince can do it himself. Treating the people kindly is the best son of heaven in the hearts of the people.

From the prince, it can be seen that His Majesty also attaches great importance to them, and since they were hit by a disaster, His Majesty has not cut off their supply, and even issued an edict to ask for food from merchants for them, and condescended for them. How can they do that? Unmoved?

Shen Xihe also looked at Xiao Huayong, Xiao Huayong smiled lightly: "Okay, I will go."

They can't let them respect him in vain, naturally they are grateful, Xiao Huayong also feels that he deserves it, he did not work hard, but without him, there would never be any supply of food that could be transported, these people There is no strength to work.

Although the canal was dug through, the rain had not stopped, so the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the river god could only be kept simple and held at the gate of the city. The people also performed a lion dance under limited conditions, and the firecrackers were exhausted before they were lit. ring.

The governor of Yu Gong was asked to behead, and the new governor of Dengzhou has not yet arrived, Xiao Huayong ordered the governor of Henan Province to come to preside over the sacrifice. After a generous speech on the tower, Xiao Huayong came wearing a heavy cloak and was supported by Shen Xihe.

Seeing Xiao Huayong, the common people became agitated immediately, and wanted to kneel down regardless of the dampness on the ground.

Seeing this, Shen Xihe glanced to the side. Mo Yuan rang the gong heavily. The deafening sound made the people forget their actions, and subconsciously stood up straight. Naturally, some of them were so frightened that they plopped down on their knees. .

"Fellow folks, your Highness came here because of the sincerity of the folks. If you are so tired that you have a cold, it will not be beautiful." Shen Xihe raised his voice, "Your Highness, please don't be too polite. The royal family is loved by the people, and it is their duty to seek the well-being of the people. It is also a blessing for His Highness and me to be able to share the adversity with the people in the city. I hope that the weather in Dengzhou will be smooth in the future, and the villagers will have enough food and grain , I look forward to the peace of the country and the people."

"Food is sufficient and grain is plentiful, the country is peaceful and the people are safe!" Shen Xihe's few words were able to attract the common people to cheer together. The energetic young man shouted good wishes, and for a moment everyone shouted together.

Shen Xihe and Xiao Huayong smiled at them, and left the tower, they went directly to the reservoir where the water was released, Xiao Huayong was in the carriage, Shen Xihe was wearing a lapel robe today, and Pearl took advantage of the The escort went up, and the red silk was tied here, and the governor gave up the position to Shen Xihe, and Shen Xihe was to release the first gate.

The rest of the gates that require a lot of effort are all arranged military guards, and they are pushed open with all their strength.The gate was fully pushed open, and the water in the almost full reservoir rushed out and rolled away with a rapid momentum.

They stood in the distance, watching the water flowing down the waterway for thousands of miles and rushing towards the sea. Many people's hearts were raised. They still had some worries. Keep an eye on the water level of the sea.

Time passed by in a flash, and when the fierce water discharged into the sea became smaller, the things they were worried about still did not happen, and a young guy who couldn't bear it grinned and shouted: "It's done——"

One by one, it quickly spread throughout the entire county. The people suffering from stagnant water and floods first burst into joy, then burst into tears, and finally couldn't help but hugged and shouted.

The sound of jubilation overwhelmed the sound of rain, covering the overcast and rainy county town, as if the annoying heavy rain seemed gentle and lovely to them.

This scene fell in the eyes of Shen Xihe and the others, and Ziyu couldn't help but sigh: "It's so easy for them to be happy."

"The common people don't have much to ask for. There are no disasters and diseases, and they have enough food and clothing." Shen Xihe's eyes were soft, he put down the curtain of the car, and looked back at Xiao Huayong who was leaning in the car, "The next step is to build roads , I still have some things to arrange."

Road construction is the way to leave. As for other roads, the local government will naturally solve them. Tao Zhuanxian and Zhong Pingzhi will not be able to return to Beijing for a while. , Next, it needs to be refined, and this water conservancy needs to be fully implemented before they can return to Beijing.

"Yo Yo, what else is there?" Xiao Huayong thought for a while, and it seemed that there was nothing to ignore.

"I came in and looked through the classics about floods in the past. After floods, plague is easy to be induced. There are many precedents. I don't know if it will happen this time. Whether it will or not, it is always right to take precautions early." Shen Xihe said to Xiao Hua Yong Road.

Xiao Huayong's eyes deepened: "Yo Yo, serve the people wholeheartedly."

He didn't think of this, nor did others, it's not that they are ignorant, it's just that their hearts towards the common people are not as pure as Shen Xihe's.

"It's just looking through some more classics, how can it be worthy of your praise?" Shen Xihe himself didn't feel that he had done so righteously.

In fact, the way to prevent plague is very simple for Shen Xihe.
