There are mountains, rivers, and wolf kings

Chapter 339 Doubtful Points
However, when Gu Yongjia arrived in Yancheng, he found out that the flood was rather strange. During that time, there was only a few light rains in Yancheng. Logically speaking, it is impossible to have such a big flood, and I don’t know why. , Overnight, the entire Yancheng was submerged by floods, and those floods came from nowhere.

Of course, the few people brought by him couldn't find anything. During that time, Gu Yongjia basically dealt with some aristocratic families in Yancheng. These families can be passed down for hundreds of years. Which one is not a human being?Which one has no background?Some things that are not put on the bright side are bright in the eyes of these people.

Just like this flood, this Yancheng was surrounded by the sudden flood, but the day before the flood entered the city, the three great families of Yancheng, the Hong family, the Liu family, and the Wang family, left the city together and escaped. doomed.

How could there be such a coincidence that they escaped the flood?

I'm afraid they already knew that there would be a flood besieging the city. Whether they were notified in advance or had insight into the opportunities in advance, they at least knew some inside information.

These people are very shrewd, Gu Yongjia is only a fifth rank, but Li Xianzhuo is about to be promoted to a third rank servant, it is clear at a glance who is more important and who is more important.

In the end, Gu Yongjia entered the Hong family with Liu Yong's name card, and got some news from Hong Xin, the head of the Hong family.

Liu Yong is the number one celebrity around the emperor, and now he is the commander of the imperial guards. Although he is only the fourth rank, he is the emperor's young playmate Conglong Yougong, who really speaks up in front of the emperor.

In this period when the new emperor and the ministers left behind by the former emperor are fighting in the arena, the rank really doesn't mean anything, it should be more based on the emperor's preferences.

The new emperor ascended the throne, and now his foundation is not stable, and the ranks of the people around him are naturally not high. When he recovers, I am afraid that there will be a major reshuffle in the court.

These aristocratic families are all human spirits, how can they not know this truth.

So when they saw Liu Yong's famous post, they all opened their doors to Gu Yongjia.

But Gu Yongjia only chose the Hong family, not because the other two had any problems, but because the Hong family had the weakest foundation and was the first to show affection to him, so he chose the Hong family.

That night, the head of the Hong family, Hong Xin and Gu Yongjia, had been drinking for three rounds before slowly revealing some things he knew. That night, Gu Yongjia asked Leng Lei to verify that the matter was really like Hong Xin's. Generally speaking.

The flood was not caused by the internal waterlogging caused by too fast rain, nor was it caused by flash floods, nor was it caused by floods upstream. It actually came from the city.

Finding such a result, Gu Yongjia became more determined in his mind that the flood was really man-made, and apart from physical exhaustion, it was more anger.

Although Gu Yongjia's life is relatively uneasy, he basically lives in Lijia Village, and the living environment is relatively simple. Even if he has hatred for the Gu family, he has never thought of using any despicable means to retaliate. Give back what you deserve, and let the Gu family get the lesson they deserve.

If it wasn't for the purity of mind, knowing that her mother was killed by her own aunt, she would have settled her blood debt long ago, so how could she still be living in the Gu family.

Although it was too simple to say that she didn't want her to die, she hadn't learned any lesson yet.

But now, there are some people who are playing with the lives of the common people for the sake of their official career, playing with applause, artificially creating natural disasters to gain political achievements, so as to make themselves better.

Thinking of some of the scenes I saw during this period of time, I felt for the first time that I, the supervisory censor from the fifth rank, really had a heavy responsibility.

Leng Lei went to see several water outlets in the city, and found that all of them came from a channel under the ground, and this pipe was connected to the Yanhe River next to Yancheng.

The mouth of the Yanhe River was obviously sealed before, and it was blasted open on the night of the flood, so it poured into the city.

And the flooding of Yancheng was not their goal, it was just to give them a reason to open the gates to release the flood.

This Yancheng is called Yancheng because there is a big Yanhu Lake outside the city. Droughts often occur in Yancheng City, so the imperial court allocated silver to people to build this Yanhu Lake, just to store water. The surrounding people irrigate the farmland, or solve domestic water.

This was the first flood in Yancheng, so people were caught off guard. Although there were many doubts, when everyone panicked, they didn't have time to think about it.

Now that he has grasped these issues, Gu Yongjia was about to investigate deeply, but he received the news that Li Dongsheng was left in the palace by the Queen Mother. While he was anxious, he also knew that he really couldn't leave Yancheng at this moment.

Now that I have taken this position, I have to plead for the people and be worthy of the heavens.

So on the same day, he sent a letter to Leng Feng and Li Haitang each, asking him to accompany Li Haitang back to Gu's house in Tongcheng first, and he will arrange other things separately.

After Li Haitang received his letter, although he didn't know what his so-called arrangement meant, he instinctively believed that he would definitely get it done, and decided to return to Tongcheng the next day.

The patriarch and the village chief were very disappointed when they knew that Li Dongsheng would not come back, but Li Dongsheng was left in the palace by the empress dowager, but no one dared to say a bad word. Besides, although Li Dongsheng did not come back, Li Haitang continued to The seven-day running water banquet made everyone in Lijia Village feel very good.

Lijia Village was hit by a disaster just before, and every household was so poor that they could barely get out of the house. Although the fields were still there, this year's spring plowing would definitely be affected.

What's more, 80.00% of the houses in Lijia Village have been damaged.

Although some homes can still be lived in with a little repair, there are very few usable things in the home, and basically they have to start from scratch. At this time, the seven-day running water mat is particularly important.

Although Li Dongsheng may not have any other major impact on the Li family after winning the first prize, this benefit is the most visible and tangible.

Li Haitang saw that everyone was really in trouble, so he asked Steward Ji to buy a lot of food and sent it to the village head's family. He asked him to send some to the villagers. Although it was not much, it was a kindness.

When Li Haitang said that he was going to leave the next day, the Li family didn't feel much, especially the Li Zhao family. Li Haitang said that if he leaves now, Li Zhaoshi will not have any objections.

It's just that she has no opinion, but some people do.

For example, Li Yushan who has recovered in the past few days, and Wang Dafeng who is still in bed.
