lied to Kangxi

Chapter 243 Recommending You to Be a Servant
After controlling Zhang Penghe and Wang Hao, the fourth child personally ordered the boat to be released first.

To be honest, Yuzhu didn't want the fourth child to let the boat go.

The reason is actually very simple, the fourth son and Yu Zhu came out together, if something happens to the fourth son, with Kangxi's super protective personality, even if Yu Zhu does not die, his future will be over.

However, looking at the resolute face of the fourth child, Yu Zhu swallowed the words of persuasion again.

No matter how cruel and vicious the fourth child is, he dared to gamble his life in order to keep the embankment. How could Yuzhu not give up his life to accompany him?

As a result, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the four big boats were untied from their cables and lowered down the river.

"Listen well, Di is here, Ben Baylor is here, and you are all here. Di died, everyone died together, understand?" The fourth child made an oath domineeringly.

Hey, the technology is backward, and the spirit is here.

The fourth child is a serious prince and elder brother. When he is in charge of Lord Belle, he will take the lead and not be afraid of death. The rest of the people are naturally greatly encouraged.

Therefore, Gan Guoji, the chief envoy of Henan, who was ordered in danger, commanded the officials in Henan to start to build dikes and make large straw bags and cloth bags according to Yuzhu's method.

The fourth child personally issued an order that all residents of Kaifeng Mansion must go to the embankment to help guard the embankment.

Those who don't come will have their homes ransacked and arrested!

Hey, Yuzhu wanted to laugh when he heard the word copying the house.The fourth child in history has a special nickname, the emperor who copied the house!

Yuzhu is very experienced in flood control.

Under his suggestion, Zidi was arranged on the top of the embankment, slightly set back two feet.

According to Yuzhu's professional advice, the fourth child decisively ordered that the door panels and bed panels of all nearby houses be removed and transported to the embankment.

The bed plank faces the direction of the flood and is tied tightly with thick hemp rope.At the bottom of the bed boards, straw bags and sacks filled with soil were piled up.

Then, on the back of the bed board, build a high embankment composed of straw bags and gunny bags.

The subdike is trapezoidal, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, and the top of the dike is also piled with stones and straw bags filled with soil, ready to be thrown into the gap anytime and anywhere.

After arranging the embankment, Yuzhu personally led the people to divide the officials and grassroots people on the embankment into nine groups.

No matter day or night, day and night, they are hand in hand to inspect suspicious situations near the embankment.

In particular, Yuzhu pointed out that the ponds or lakes near the levee are the most important inspections.

The principle of rushing to protect the dangerous situation of piping is to prevent sand from gushing and leave a way out for seepage.

This will not only prevent the sand layer from being damaged, but also reduce the seepage pressure nearby, so that the dangerous situation can be controlled and stabilized.It is worthy of vigilance that once the large wells are not built in time, or the high wells collapse, it will cause embankment disasters.

Do not throw sandbags and stones into the pipeline area, but rescue it by surrounding the well.

In the past, due to backward knowledge and technology, half of the failures of the Yellow River embankment were caused by throwing stones into the piping area, except for poor-quality projects.

After arranging the inspectors, Yuzhu temporarily acted as an instructor to prevent the plumbing, explaining the key points of subduing the plumbing to the local officials.

"Everyone, the most important thing is two points: one is to carry out inspections with nets, which cannot be interrupted for a moment; the other is to immediately wrap stones with grass to make a surrounding well..."

In order to facilitate the understanding of these people, Yuzhu specially ordered someone to make a well around it.

"The height of the surrounding well should be based on the principle of being able to control water gushing and sand, but it should not be too high, generally not exceeding five feet, so as to avoid new piping near the surrounding well. For piping groups, single or multiple pipes can be selected according to the distance between the piping outlets. Protect the surrounding well. The surrounding well should be in close contact with the ground to prevent water leakage and prevent the water level of the surrounding well from rising. The surrounding well must be filled with permeable straw bags, and impermeable materials should not be used..." Yu Zhu When teaching everyone, the fourth child stood not far away, watching him silently.

According to Longkodo, Yuzhu's only two trips out of Beijing, one was to study at Jiuhua Academy in Jiangning, and the other was to preside over the Guangdong Provincial Examination.

The fourth child was a little strange, how did Yu Zhu know, and how to deal with Guan Chung?

I can't figure it out!

The fourth child has already understood Yuzhu's method of enclosing the well. To put it bluntly, it is to reduce the water level that penetrates in, so as not to cause a huge hollowing out force on the embankment.

When Yuzhu was instructing everyone on flood prevention, the fourth child was not idle. He directly ordered to call the married women nearby to cook for everyone.

The Changping warehouse in Kaifeng Mansion has also been opened by the fourth order.

The fourth child is still very pragmatic. You can't ask the common people to work hard on the embankment, and you have to bring their own dry food, right?
Under the supervision of the fourth child, all kinds of straw bags and cloth bags were transported to the embankment.

With the help of straw bags, the subdikes on the top of the embankment were also continuously heightened and strengthened.

With the help of Zi Di, even if a huge wave occasionally crosses the top of the embankment, it will be fine.

Yuzhu was more proficient in dealing with plumbing, so he divided the work with the fourth child. He was responsible for patrolling under the dike to prevent pipelines, while the fourth child stared at the embankment and the sub-dike on the embankment.

At night, Yu Zhu lay in the grass shack with his clothes on, and fell asleep soundly like thunder.

Niu Tai loves Yuzhu very much, but if the embankment collapses, no one will be able to escape.

"Master, it's time, it's time to get up." Niu Tai called seven or eight times before waking up the extremely tired Yu Zhu.

Yu Zhu got up quickly, washed his face with cold water, turned to Niu Tai and asked, "Is the situation outside okay?"

Niu Tai smiled and said, "At dusk, Zidi had a gap, and Lord Sibeile led people to block it."

Yu Zhu nodded, the earth embankment, the most feared thing is the internal piping, not the flood over the top of the embankment.

On the top of the embankment, as long as a solid embankment is built, it is almost impossible for major accidents to occur.

The people around Yuzhu, holding torches in their left hands and sticks in their right hands, lined up in two long lines, forming a "T" shape with the embankment.

When looking for water-permeable pipe outlets, you must not be impatient, let alone careless, and you must inspect inch by inch.

According to the rules, as long as you find something suspicious, you have to ask Yu Zhu to check it.

To be honest, when we first started guarding the embankment, the officials and common people were very enthusiastic.

After waiting for half a month, everyone began to slack off.

Yuzhu is an old bureaucrat with rich experience in flood control.He went to see the fourth child, and discussed switching the manpower to deal with Guan Chung and reinforce Zidi.

After changing teams, everyone's vigilance is much higher.

Yuzhu repeatedly emphasized that the core of dealing with piping is to surround the well and permeate the water.

At the most dangerous time, more than a dozen piping points appeared overnight.

Fortunately, it was discovered in time, so it did not cause a catastrophe.

Nima, if this is broken, the fourth child on the embankment may still survive, and the jade pillar may be washed away by the flood.

After 20 days, the flood gradually receded.

The common people threw away the flood control tools in their hands one after another, knelt down in front of the fourth child, and burst into tears of gratitude.

"Thank you fourth master for saving us."

"Fourth Master, you are really a living Bodhisattva."

"Without you, fourth master, our family would be finished!"

The fourth child enjoyed the feeling of being sought after by everyone. He kissed the embankment regardless of his life. Shouldn't he accept everyone's kneeling and congratulations?

Yuzhu would not be so stupid as to steal the glory of the fourth child at this time, he quietly hid in a straw hut and fell asleep with his head covered.

After getting enough sleep, Yuzhu took a beautiful bath and rubbed off the dirt all over her body.

Hey, the warm water in the wooden barrel was frighteningly black. After changing the water three times, Yuzhu washed himself clean!
After changing, Yu Zhu changed into casual clothes and sat opposite the fourth child.

"Cousin, thanks to you this time, the Yellow River embankment has never breached like never before. Brother Yu, I must toast you." The fourth child raised his glass high and expressed his sincere gratitude to Yuzhu.

Yuzhu clinked glasses with the fourth child, then smiled and said, "It's mainly because of your presiding over the overall situation, I just helped to make up for the omissions."

The fourth child was extremely satisfied with Yu Zhu's credit.

With the temperament of the fourth child, he actually dislikes arrogant people the least!
For example, Longkodo, the fourth child kept pinching his nose and calling him uncle for the sake of the overall situation.In fact, the fourth child is extremely disgusted by Longkodo's domineering.

Yu Zhu never acts arrogantly, let alone bullying people, and he is completely different from his own father.

To put it bluntly, the fourth child likes Yuzhu who is down-to-earth and low-key.

"Cousin, you have made such a great contribution. I have already handed over the paperwork to Amah Khan, recommending you as the right servant of the Ministry of Industry and Engineering." When the fourth child said this, Yuzhu immediately understood that the fourth child really wanted to support him up.

Yuzhu has a lot of part-time jobs now.However, as a third-rank noble and fourth-rank official, it is obviously impossible to become the right servant of the Ministry of Industry in one step.

Therefore, the fourth child deliberately mentioned the concept of agency.Act as an agent first, and then recommend to be the official right servant after making political achievements.

The six servants of this dynasty all started from the second rank, and they were promoted to the second rank in Yongzheng.

The governor among the big officials in the frontier happened to be from the second rank.Among them, the governor with the rank of minister of the Ministry of War is the second grade.

According to the practice of this dynasty, the governor was vacant, for example, the ministers of the six departments, the cabinet bachelor, the head of the Imperial Academy, the left deputy capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Fusheng of Shuntian Prefecture, the governor of Fengtian Prefecture, and the governors of various provinces.

The governor has concurrent titles.Those who are awarded by the servant are designated as the right servant of the Ministry of War and the right deputy capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Those who are promoted by bachelors, deputy capital censors, ministers, chief envoys and other officials will all be awarded the title of right deputy capital censor.

Those who are promoted by Zuoqindu Yushi or fourth-rank Jingqing, Anchashi and other officials will be given the title of Youqindu Yushi.

According to the idea of ​​the fourth child, after holding the jade pillar in the palm of his hand, he must be recommended to be the official of the frontier.

Originally, the fourth child planned to support Nian Gengyao.

However, Nian Gengyao was too flamboyant.If Yuzhu can join the fourth master's party, the fourth child must give up Nianmou and vigorously support Yuzhu.

Nian Gengyao in history became the governor of Sichuan before he was 30 years old.In addition to Kangxi's respect, there is also an inseparable relationship with the fourth child who always helps beat the side drums and speaks good words, and strongly recommends them.

Now, since the fourth child has kicked the ball over, it depends on how Yuzhu expresses his opinion?
