The great man will live forever

Chapter 132 The Yellow River surges
At night, Lanlinghou Mansion,
"Why do I have to put on makeup every time I go out? Do I have to put on makeup to look older? Isn't it bad to look younger?"

Shu Yuzhu began to remove Liu Han's makeup. After returning to Chang'an, Liu Han asked Shu Yuzhu to put on his simple makeup every time he went out to make him look older.

Even though there were few things used for makeup in ancient times, it was difficult to beautify, but not easy to be ugly and old?

"I'm almost 30, and you're 26. You're fine, but do I still look like a 20-year-old boy?"

"Yeah, what's wrong? You do look a bit younger."

"I've been locking up Zhao Lan much more harshly than you were before. Aren't you curious?"

Liu Han said as he hugged her into his arms and blew beside her ear.

"Ah, I hate it, why?" Shu Yuzhu looked at him with his big eyes open, and his smile was charming.

So Liu Han told her everything Zhao Lan said.

Shu Yuzhu was shocked and opened his mouth wide, "How is that possible?"

"I didn't think about immortality before, but the vicissitudes of life in her eyes reflect that I haven't had a child for more than ten years. In these years, I have never taken any protective measures. It's not that I can't do it. I even went to see a doctor. , said that I was very healthy, but he said that we could not have offspring at all.

Also, after I was injured, I recovered very quickly, and my appearance has not changed for more than ten years. I thought I did not look older, but now I realize that I am not. "

As Liu Han spoke, he put his fingers in her mouth and played with her tongue. Shu Yuzhu started licking it naturally, and then his face turned rosy.

"So, these days, you have begun to distance yourself from Sister Yi and Xiao Taohong."

Liu Han's eyes paused and he sighed, "Yes, if you invest too much emotion, you will be the most uncomfortable in the end. Only we may be able to go on forever."

"You never doubted what she said?"

"What good will it do her to lie to me? And time will tell."

"Too!"

The two were chatting with each other, but they didn't know that there was a person hiding under the bed, it was Ai Mei. She covered her mouth tightly, her face full of shock.

In fact, she didn't want to, but after returning from South Vietnam, Liu Han became more and more alienated from her, and she found that she had fallen in love with him. The promises and oaths made before seemed like a joke.

She was unwilling to give in and wanted to find out why, in terms of appearance and figure, she was no worse than Shu Yuzhu, so after some hesitation, she began to pay close attention to Liu Han and Shu Yuzhu. She knew that they had secrets.

But she never expected that it was such a secret. She heard all of it, and her heart was shaking, "Immortals, are they immortals? What are time travelers? Zhao Lan has lived for 700 years, how is it possible?"

She wanted to ask Liu Han, but she didn't dare. She might die or imprison her for life.

In the middle of the night, she listened to the strange cry of a woman who seemed to be crying but not crying, and seemed to be smiling but not smiling. She felt the shaking of the bed. Her face turned red and she leaned on certain places...

The next day, when Liu Han and Shu Yuzhu left the room, she carefully got up from the bed and walked out slowly. The moment she walked out, the sun shone on her face, making her feel like she was in another world.

In the following time, she seemed very well-behaved, neither fighting nor grabbing, as calm as water, but her eyes became deeper and deeper, but Xiao Taohong often cried.

Liu Han also coaxed her, but he was not as caring as before. She could feel that when Xiao Taohong realized that acting coquettishly and crying was useless, she became much more well-behaved. Every time Liu Han saw her, he felt a little distressed, but he Fear of greater pain, maybe this is the price of immortality.

As for the other woman, Fang Chan, Liu Han almost forgot about her, and they just served her with delicious food and drinks, which the Hou Mansion did not lack.

Over the years, Shu Yuzhu has also fulfilled his original promise and found a good husband for his sister Dong Cuiyun, who is the son of the housekeeper in the mansion. He has good appearance and good conduct. He married happily and gave birth to two sons.

As for her Dong family outside the city, she has never been back once. After all, she is completely like a stranger. She only gets some money as gifts during festivals.

They were also very honest and did not come to visit relatives to ask for favors. After all, they themselves felt guilty. They sold people to the palace for money. Now they can be considered contented when they can think of them, and that is the Marquis of Lanling. Who dares to make trouble?
This year, a major event will happen, something that should always be remembered in history. Liu Han will also witness it with his own eyes and even participate in it. In fact, he is ready to submit a letter, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has already made up his mind. "The edict said that the Yellow River burst its banks many times and flooded, causing unspeakable suffering for the people on both sides. I visited Mount Tai and patrolled east to the east of Henan and southwestern Shandong. I witnessed the tragic situation of turbulent currents and mourning people everywhere. At that time, Shandong was hit by the river, and it was the year old In a few years, people may eat each other, two to three thousand miles away. My heart is very painful, and my heart is in pain, and my whole body is burning. I am determined to use the power of the four seas to block the gap. Now I order Ji Ren and Guo Chang to kill each other. Thousands of people stuffing gourds into each other..."

"Long live Long live Long live."

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!"

Immediately, the people on both sides of the Yellow River who knew the edict knelt down and shouted long live. They had been waiting for this day for too long.

Huzi, an ancient place name, also known as Huzikou, is located near Miaogu Village in Huaxian County, southwest of Puyang County, Henan Province today.

Huaxian County is located in the northern Henan Plain, bordering Puyang, Yanjin, Junxian, Changyuan, Fengqiu and Neihuang.

According to historical records, the ancient Yellow River began to flow into Huajing in the fifth year of King Ding of Zhou Dynasty (602 BC). In the fifth year of Mingchang of Emperor Zhangzong of Jin Dynasty (1194 AD), the old embankment of Yangwu (now Yuanyang) burst and migrated southward away from Huajing. , has been flowing in the slipland for nearly 1800 years, and it is the place where the embankment is most likely to burst.

Compared with the pre-Qin Dynasty, there were significantly more records of the Yellow River overflowing in the Han Dynasty, and the main river channel changed more frequently. From a time distribution point of view, the Yellow River overflowing was more concentrated in the middle and late Western Han Dynasty and the early Eastern Han Dynasty.

"Historical Records: River Canal Book" contains: "In the 39th year of the rise of the Han Dynasty, during the reign of Xiaowen, the river broke through the jujube and broke through the golden embankment in the east."

There is also: "For more than forty years later, in the middle of Zi Yuan Guang, the river broke through the gourd."Jujube is located in the southwest of today's Yanjin County, and gourd is in the southwest of today's Puyang. At that time, they were both south of the Yellow River.

Moreover, there was a river embankment in this section at that time. According to "Han Shu·Gou Xiu Zhi", it was mentioned that the embankment was "four or five feet high" up and down Qishuikou (in the southwest of today's Hua County).

One foot in the Han Dynasty was about 0.7 feet in later generations, and four or five feet was equivalent to 9 to 11 meters in later generations. This was already very high, almost the same height as the embankments of later rivers. It can be seen that the scale of the Yellow River embankments in the Western Han Dynasty was already quite grand. .

"Historical Records: Book of Rivers and Qus" records such an incident: "In May of the third year of Yuanguang (132 BC), the Yellow River broke through Guzi, flooded southward, rushed into Juye Ze, and flowed into the Huai River, Si River, Liang and Liang Rivers. In Chu and other sixteen counties, the land was covered with vast oceans and the disasters were severe."

At that time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was high-spirited and concerned about the people. He immediately ordered Ji An and another minister Zheng to go and block the mouth.

Ji An was originally from Puyang, Henan Province in the Western Han Dynasty. He was a famous remonstrator and honest official in the Western Han Dynasty. He was loyal to the emperor, caring for the people, considerate of the people, outspoken, eloquent, and upright.

At that time, people regarded Ji An as the representative of the ministers who criticized and remonstrated, so they no longer called him by his real name and simply called him "Ji Zhi".

Many famous ministers in later generations who dared to give direct advice found the source of their strength from Ji An, and this legendary figure who "cannot be taken away from him during important festivals" will remain famous throughout the ages.

Of course, a few years ago, due to his old age and the fact that he had repeatedly failed to give Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty face, he proposed to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to retire and return to his hometown. Now he has passed away.

Ji An was still young at that time, and he had lived on the bank of the Yellow River since childhood. He was familiar with the water conditions and cared about the people. He immediately led people to the scene and quickly organized more than 10 migrant workers from various counties in Dongjun to start blocking the river.

However, because the gap was very wide, the water was strong, and the materials were not available, he was blocked several times and was washed away again.

He still wanted to continue. As long as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty made up his mind and provided more money, it would be possible to completely close the gap.

But because of one person, the Yellow River flooded for more than 20 years. He was the uncle of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Wu'anhou Tianfen. He was the prime minister at the time, because his seat was in E County (today's east of Xiajin, Shandong), which was north of the Yellow River.

He thought that if the Yellow River burst and flowed southward, his fiefdom would be protected from floods and he would gain more food.So Tian Fu blocked the river, saying that it was God's will to block the river, and it would not be in line with God's will to block the river.

Some warlocks also echoed Fu's words, "Those who look at Qi and use numbers also think so." In addition, the Huns from the north were threatening to invade at that time. It was the end of the reign of Empress Dowager Dou, who followed Huang Lao's way and ruled by inaction. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty therefore Work was ordered to stop, and the blocking project was abandoned halfway.

In the 23 years after the Gouzi breach, the Yellow Flood Area expanded day by day, people were displaced and starved to death, and the Han Dynasty suffered heavy economic losses.

This year, after Mount Tai was enshrined, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty took a look in person and was shocked. So after returning to the court, he was determined to close the gap that had been flooding for 23 years.
