Jinyi champion

Chapter 336
The water level of the Han River rose sharply, and all the state capitals along the coast were affected. Only Anlu Prefecture organized a manpower to protect the embankment, but this was an errand that could not be sloppy.

In the next few days, even if there is a problem in any section of the river, it may cause devastating disasters such as embankment collapse.

Although the prefectural and county governments ignored this, there was a call from the Xing Wang Mansion, and the Xing Wang Mansion had already won the hearts of the people for the suppression of bandits at the beginning of the year. Even if the government did not come forward, the flood fighting and disaster relief work was carried out in an orderly manner.

The third day after the flood.

The flood is still raging, but the water level of the river has begun to drop, and some embankments that are on the verge of breach have been saved after urgently throwing sandbags and rushing to repair and reinforce them.

This morning, Zhu Hao, on behalf of the local merchants, went up the embankment to distribute condolences to the people who participated in the flood fighting and disaster relief. Finally, he went to the embankment headquarters, which was a thatched hut, and met Tang Yin, who was exhausted after several days of persistence.

"so far so good……"

Tang Yin seriously lacked sleep time, and his speech was somewhat incoherent.

Zhu Hao asked: "Did Mr. Tang go back to rest these two days?"

Tang Yin shook his head: "I went back to the city yesterday afternoon and slept for two hours. I was really worried and came back in the evening."

To be so responsible...

This is something Zhu Hao didn't expect before.

Allowing an old Confucian student who had been disappointed in his official career for half his life to rekindle his sense of responsibility for the country and the people, Zhu Hao felt that he had done something more awesome than changing history, that was to reshape a poor man who faced life negatively. The scholar's worldview.

Tang Yin took Zhu Hao out of the shed, and went to check several nearby dams that were in danger.

Whenever the two passed by, everyone greeted them with smiles, clasped fists, or bowed to pay high respect. Wherever Tang Yin appeared, no matter whether it was the guards of the palace, craftsmen or ordinary people, there was not a single lazy person.

"The water level has finally dropped a bit..."

There was some comfort on Tang Yin's face.

Zhu Hao looked at the surging river, and said with a smile, "How is it? Sir, do you have a sense of accomplishment? Under your leadership, the dams in Anlu's dozens of miles have not had any problems. A lot of property and people and animals were lost, and this is all due to Mr.

Tang Yin waved his hand, casually found a big rock on the embankment and sat down: "Don't dare to claim credit, this credit should belong to you."

Zhu Hao shook his head, and then said softly: "I heard that King Xing will bring his son to the river embankment for inspection today, so you should make some preparations."

"King Xing? You mean the prince will follow?" Tang Yin was surprised.

When exterminating the bandits, King Xing also came to the city in person, but that was after the victory of the war was confirmed, and he did not bring his son with him.

Now that King Xing actually brought Zhu Si to inspect the river embankment, isn't he afraid of danger?
Zhu Haodao: "I learned from the doctor who treated King Xing that King Xing has been in poor health recently and is often bedridden. He probably feels that his time is running out, so he thinks about cultivating his son to become a talent earlier, even if he is tired. It was hard work, and he would take some risks, but he still did it without hesitation."

Tang Yin nodded slightly, expressing his understanding.

While talking, there was noise from behind the embankment.

Tang Yin hurriedly got up, thinking that it was someone from Xing Wang's mansion, but only after Lu Song came to inform him that it was someone from the state government.

"It's Zhang Zhizhou who brought people here, saying they came to walk around the embankment, and condolences to the people who participated in the flood relief." Lu Song spoke with a bit of disdain.

Tang Yin said: "What is this? To take credit for it afterwards?"

Lu Song asked: "Sir, see you or not?"

"not see."

Tang Yin immediately refused, and then glanced at Zhu Hao, "What do you think?"

Zhu Hao smiled: "It's up to you to see it or not, it's fine if you don't see it, even if King Xing's Mansion is friendly with the state government, he will still treat King Xing's Mansion as an enemy... There is no need to give him a good look at this kind of person."

After hearing this, Tang Yin and Lu Song nodded in agreement with Zhu Hao's statement.

The state government chose to stand by during this disaster prevention. On the one hand, it was because Zhang Yezheng of Xinzhizhou wanted to rescue the disaster after the event, gain political achievements, and facilitate the disaster relief and post-disaster reconstruction funds allocated by the imperial court. Another important reason was that he came to Anlu It was originally intended to be against Xing Wangfu, but Zhang Yezheng didn't want to join hands with Xingwangfu to rescue the disaster, so as to prevent the backers behind him from having opinions on him.

Let you go to Anlu to monitor Xingwangfu, and you go to fight the flood with Xingwangfu?Do you still want to be an official?
No matter what attitude Xing Wang Mansion has towards Zhang Yezheng at the moment, it can't change Zhang Yezheng's attitude of choosing to be at odds with Xing Wang Mansion, so why should Xing Wang Mansion stick to his cold ass?
You, Zhang Yezheng, have the ability to fight against Xing Wangfu's open flames, but do you dare?
So much so that the local parent officials went to the river embankment to inspect, and deliberately selected the section of the river where Tang Yin's disaster relief headquarters is located, but Tang Yin and the people in Xingwang's mansion ignored Zhang Yezheng at all.

Although the common people did not dare to neglect the government, and the gentry came forward to welcome him warmly, the Kexing Palace did not take Zhang Yezheng seriously at all.

……

……

Zhu Hao and Tang Yin continued talking on the river bank.

Tang Yindao: "I heard that the area at the ferry was almost completely flooded, so you didn't suffer any losses, right? Well, you can predict the flood in advance, so you don't expect to suffer..."

Zhu Hao took the Maza handed over by Lu Song, sat down and said, "You've already said it, what else should I say?"

"Okay, I really have you. You are brave and knowledgeable, and you care about the safety of the local people. It seems that I wrongly blamed you before, thinking that you are too scheming... But from the two things of exterminating bandits and disaster relief, it can be seen that Your intentions are very righteous, and you will not lose to me at all in serving the country and the people."

Tang Yin was full of praise, but Zhu Hao was very awkward when he heard it.

He would rather flirt with Tang Yin and play tricks, now that Tang Yin said nice things to compliment him, it made him feel that he was not the arrogant Tang Yin in front of him.

"I didn't expect to be able to do some practical things for the common people when I was old. The hard work of the past few days was worth it." Tang Yin had a great satisfaction on his face.

Zhu Hao said: "Sir, if you have the opportunity to serve as an official in the court in the future, will you accept it?"

"Of course I accept it, why not?"

In front of Zhu Hao, Tang Yin didn't put on an air of hypocrisy any more, and said whatever he thought.

Zhu Hao smiled and said, "This is really not like the you I know... In the past, you would definitely say that you have no intention of an official career, or make a lot of excuses that being an official is not suitable for you."

Tang Yin stood up, seeing Zhu Hao sitting on the horse harness, a little envious, Lu Song quickly got up when he saw this, and handed his horse horse to Tang Yin.

Tang Yin happily took over Mazha, and sat side by side with Zhu Hao, with a bit of satisfaction on his face.

"No need to say those hypocritical words, who doesn't want to gain fame and fortune? I also participated in the imperial examination back then, but I was disappointed in my official career because I was treated unfairly...Everyone wants to live a comfortable life, and they all want the world to admire. There is no need to rely on others...but it is easy to say, but difficult to realize."

In Tang Yin's opinion, this official is not something that I can just think about.

Who will be it for me?
Zhu Hao looked at the turbulent waves in front of him: "I think, sir, there must be a chance to become an official in the future, and Xingwang's mansion will never be so silent forever, and it will soar into the sky if there is a chance."

"Is this what you calculated through divination?"

Tang Yin looked at Zhu Hao with great interest.

On the matter of the flood, Tang Yin discovered that Zhu Hao not only had the ability to figure out people's hearts, but also had the ability to calculate the secrets of heaven. Since it was mentioned, he naturally had to ask.

Zhu Hao smiled and said, "That's right. If I say that, do you expect a little more, sir?"

Tang Yin hurriedly took a look at Lu Song who was monitoring the movements of the state government officials on the other side of the embankment, and after making sure that the other party hadn't heard him, he nodded with satisfaction: "If it's true as you said, then today's hard work will be worth it! "

The old and the young are now heart-to-heart friends, they can talk about anything, and they actually sit together to discuss whether they can become a dragon in the future by working for the Xing Palace.

……

……

As noon passed, the water level of the Han River dropped further.

Zhang Yezheng left early after finding out that he was making fun of himself on the embankment, and the officials of the state government were afraid that there would be a leak in the river embankment, so they let him fold here. After all, as long as it is an embankment, the height is far higher than the surrounding terrain. Now The skyrocketing Han River is like a hanging river on land.

If the dam breaks and the flood floods in, even if the people on the dam are not washed away by the flood, they will not be able to return to the city.

It was less than half an hour after the people from the state government left, the car from Xingwang's mansion finally arrived.

Accompanied by Yuan Zonggao, Zhang Zuo and other royal officials, Zhu Youzhu and Zhu Si's father and son came down to the river embankment. Zhu Hao also saw a man dressed in men's clothing, a pair of swarthy eyes rolling around, bouncing around very happily. three.

"Zhu Hao, you're here too."

When Zhu San saw Zhu Hao, his eyes lit up, and he yelled loudly, regardless of etiquette.

Zhu Youzhu glared at his daughter, and then stepped forward to accept Tang Yin and Zhu Hao's salute.

"Excuse me, both of you, is the embankment okay today?"

Zhu Youzhao asked with concern.

Hearing that King Xing was coming, the people who participated in the flood fighting and disaster relief were very excited.

No one came to watch, but consciously increased the speed of carrying sandbags.

Tang Yindao: "So far no danger report has been received, but because the water level remains at a high level, the danger still exists... Several sections of the river embankment were almost destroyed by the flood yesterday. There are more than [-] local people, and they are constantly blocked with sandbags, and the danger can be controlled."

Yuan Zonggao smiled and said, "I never thought that you, Bohu, are so good at water control."

Tang Yin hastily waved his hand: "Mr. Yuan has won the prize. I don't understand these things at all. Fortunately, Zhu Hao suggested something, coupled with the help of the whole palace, and the tens of thousands of local people obeying orders and accepting assignments, it was a lucky thing..."

"Haha."

Zhu Youyou didn't expect Tang Yin, who had always been rebellious, to be so modest. He immediately patted his son on the shoulder, met Zhu Si's doubtful gaze, and taught him earnestly: "My son, you have to remember one thing. Mr. Tang is a great talent in this world. You We should not only learn from his strategy, but also learn from his humility in dealing with people.”

Zhu Si's face was full of admiration: "My child, remember."

"Zhu Hao, you have worked hard too."

Zhu Youzhu not only praised Tang Yin, but also praised Zhu Hao.

Others couldn't see Zhu Hao's contribution, but Zhu Youzhao could see it clearly.

Yuan Zonggao said: "Prince Xing, it's better for brother Bohu to take you to inspect the river embankment in person, so that the people can receive the favor of King Xing's mansion."

Zhu Youzhan came to the river embankment just to gain political leverage, and he nodded happily when he heard the words: "Okay, let me know by the way, the prince is here too."
