"Therefore, for more than a thousand years since the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, the river has been clear and flowing. The population on both sides of the river has gathered increasingly, and the villages have continued to multiply. It has become the rich hinterland of China. According to Yu, unless the mountains and forests change drastically, the mountains and mountains on both sides of the river will

The plateaus have become barren, and the rivers have turned into mud, and the riverbeds have become higher and higher, which will definitely become a thorn in the side of China. Otherwise, the great river will always be the best water conservancy in the world!"

"Knowledgeable!" Rong Yi slapped the table and praised, turned around and smiled teasingly: "You are all well-educated people, how come you don't even understand the sentence "Although the rivers are strong, Queen Yu is very beneficial"?"

"How can you be as knowledgeable as your Prince Fu?" A gray-haired veteran of the royal family said firmly.

Rong Yi was about to retort, but when he heard the iron stick behind his back, he suddenly realized: At this critical moment, how can he show off his knowledge and knowledge by himself? His heart tightened, and he immediately turned to the angry old minister with the goatee.

He cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Rong Yi is so reckless, please forgive me, but it is more important to discuss business matters."

He turned around with a solemn expression on his face: "Please sir, please tell me how to deal with floods in Guanzhong!"

"The flood in Guanzhong is really a man-made disaster!" Siyu took two steps forward with a pair of straw sandals on the thick red felt. He raised his hands to the throne and shouted loudly, shocking everyone: "The well field system has been established for a hundred years, and the hair canals are branching canals.

There are countless blockages, not only unable to divert water for irrigation, but also blocking the waterway during drought. During floods, it becomes a vast ocean, submerging countless crops. As a result, the good fertile fields gradually turn into white-haired alkali shoals. However, the floods are close at hand, but there is no irrigation.

The mud in the sandy belt accumulates year by year, and the river bed rises year by year. If the canals in the well fields can be cleaned, the waterways can be dredged, and the floodwaters can be diverted into the canals, Guanzhong will almost become fertile fields!

In ancient times, the floods swayed Huaishan and Xiangling, and the common people in the world almost turned into beasts in caves. However, Dayu came out, led the people to control the floods, and led hundreds of rivers into the sea, eventually completing the great cause of China's water conservancy. From this point of view, although the floods were severe, they eventually

It can be cured. There is no need to fear water disasters in the world, only fear that officials will not do their jobs. Officials who do not do their jobs are the chief cause of man-made disasters. All harms in the world can be eliminated, but man-made disasters are the only ones that cannot be eliminated!"

The words echoed loudly, and the ministers suddenly changed their expressions. The Zhou Dynasty was highly praised by the world for its benevolent rule of kings. How had anyone ever openly criticized the officials for being indifferent and causing disasters? Today, a small water worker in commoners and straw sandals reprimanded him like this in the temple of the Emperor.

Zhou Zheng is tolerable, but who can't be tolerated!

"Old minister, please kill Si Yu to rectify the world!" Zhou Gongding shouted angrily.

"I ask you to kill Si Yu and establish prestige for the world!" The whole hall echoed.

Only Rongyi and Zhao Bohu didn't speak. As the recommender, Rongyi really didn't expect that Siyu would attribute the flood to such an incredible topic. Is this still water engineering? Such a ridiculous argument, with Li Wang Jihu's stubbornness

How can we tolerate his personality?

In an instant, Rongyi regretted that he had rashly recommended this ignorant hydraulic worker, and it was entirely possible that he was involved. At this time, he could not act rashly, he could only wait for the emperor to speak.

Zhao Bohu had another thought. He had been Prime Minister for many years, but he had never thought about renovating Guanzhong Water Conservancy, but he was always unable to do it. What Si Yu said, "The official who does not do his job is the chief cause of man-made disasters" was clearly what he wanted to say.

But it is hard to say. The current strategy is not to kill Si Yu. If Ji Hu is angry, he will protect this person no matter what, as the mainstay of flood control in Guanzhong.

"I am your king," Zhao Bohu said in front of everyone: "Although Si Yu slandered the Zhou government, he is still a useful and talented person. He should be punished with official service and allowed to serve his crimes in the Guanzhong channel."

"The Zhao phase is different!" Taicang Order pointed directly at Zhao Bohu: "Can you forgive me for slandering the previous king's government?"

Seeing the water worker in straw sandals smiling calmly as if nothing had happened, the ministers were filled with indignation and shouted in unison: "Slandering Zhou's government is an unpardonable crime!" and turned their gazes to the throne.

The young King Li of Zhou suddenly opened his sharp eagle eyes and sneered: "Slandering Zhou Zheng? Who can tell me what Zhou Zheng is? How did Si Yu slander him?"

With this cold smile and a gentle question, there was a sudden deathly silence in the hall. The ministers were speechless and no one spoke.

King Li's face darkened, and he stood up with a wave of his sleeves: "How can I not know your selfish intentions? It's just that they are afraid that I will lose my face, so they all come to cater to me. But no one thinks about national affairs and says a straight word. He is very sincere.

Don't worry about anything, do public service without caring about private interests, this is the way to be a minister. Once upon a time, our great Zhou Dynasty

The atmosphere in the hall is so bad!"

The ministers blushed and bowed their heads in silence, feeling greatly embarrassed for a moment. Zhao Bohu and Rongyi were also on pins and needles.

After a long time, Ji Hu turned around and bowed deeply to Si Yu solemnly: "Sir, you are a great minister. Ji Hu would like to learn from you."

Si Yu couldn't help but fell down and worshiped: "The people in Guanzhong have been suffering from floods and droughts for a long time. Your Majesty, I just want to save them. Si Yu is willing to serve and die without hesitation!"

Ji Hu quickly lowered the steps to help Si Yu up, and said with a smile: "The key to Zhou's government is to enrich the people and strengthen the country. How can he not do it? The people in Guanzhong are lonely people, how dare you ignore it? Sir, you have a strong character, how dare you not use it?"

Then he turned around and faced the courtiers and said: "This king writes an order: I order Siyu to be in charge of the water conservancy work in Guanzhong, the governor to supervise the canal project, and the people to coordinate the material dispatch. The prince Fu Rongyi will coordinate."

"My king has made a clear decision!" Before Si Yu and Rongyi could speak, they raised their voices in agreement.

"Sir, if you have anything else to ask for, just ask." Li Wang Jihu looked at Si Yu with bright eyes.

"In three years' time, Si Yu will definitely give back a Guanzhong granary on Monday!"

Ji Hu laughed heartily and disappeared behind the big red screen without saying a word.

Rong Yi returned to his home with mixed feelings in his heart. Originally, through his trip to the Central Plains and the commercial war in Luoyi, he thought that he had completely gained the trust of the young emperor, but today's incident in the court made him feel disappointed.

I feel faintly cold. This young emperor who has just turned 20 years old has abilities and ambitions far beyond his imagination. It seems that nothing can be too simple. The most urgent task now is to work together with Si Yu to improve Guanzhong Water Conservancy.

The renovation work must be done with all your heart and soul. Only in this way can the foundation of the court be truly laid.

So, he ordered his elders to close the door and thank the guests, and prepared to go through Si Yu's plan for repairing the main canals in the mine fields under the lamp in detail. Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the first volume, his elders came to report mysteriously: "Chong Li

The general is here!"

Thinking that Chong Li had the important responsibility of guarding the royal city, he would not have come at this time unless he had important matters. Rongyi could only sigh softly: "Let him come in!"

Under the flickering light, Chong Li's face looked a bit unreal: "Master, there is news from Echeng!"

"Oh? Has Crown Prince E been found?" Rong Yi was very happy. Since the Battle of Tonglu Mountain, his Nanlin Society has been looking for the missing Crown Prince.

"Yes, it turns out that he was rescued by a palace maid named Shuju who asked herself out of the palace. Now she is hiding in a deserted village on the border of Sui and Hubei to recuperate. This palace lady once went to the town to find out how to cure the lost soul while going to the market.

Because of this, the news spread throughout the society."

"So, after this battle, Prince Kun of Hubei was severely hit, his mind collapsed, and he has become a soulless person?" Rongyi narrowed his eyes and thought.

"It's about right. It's said that the palace maid went alone into the deep forest to collect ancient Ganoderma lucidum for E Kun. After eating it, her condition improved. But exactly what happened is unknown because spies can't get close enough to investigate. I've ordered them to pretend to be tourists.

Mr. Fang went to investigate more closely."

Rong Yi nodded slightly, looking directly at the lights on the table, thoughtfully: "This is a good chess piece, we must make good use of it!"

"Master... how do you want to use this chess piece?" Chong Li bowed slightly, his eyes a little confused.

Rongyi leaned forward slightly and lowered his voice as much as possible: "Send some news to Madam E Gongyi."

"Ah? So... Mrs. Yi will definitely send someone to get rid of E Kun. Master wants to borrow a knife to kill people and get rid of Prince E?" Chong Li was a little confused and spent a long time asking about such a person who had disappeared for several months just to kill him.

What?

"Kill him? Is that still called a chess piece?" Rongyi glared at Chongli angrily, stroking his beard and said: "Instruct the Echeng branch to send more manpower, arrange it well, and make sure to protect Ekun.

It’s safe. This move will only force E Kun to leave the country and leave his hometown. It’s best to lure him to Wangji. I want to play a big game.”

"No! I understand," Zhong Li promised, but hesitated and refused to leave.

Rong Yi glanced at him and immediately understood his apprentice's thoughts: "What? You still want to go to the Sixth West Division?"

"Master, please!" Chong Li gritted his teeth and said, "My disciple has been in Haojing for several years. He only serves as a guard at the palace gate and protects the king of Zhou. He has never gone to the battlefield to make achievements, and he is always unwilling to do so.

This time, it was easy for Guo Zhong to transfer, but the king directly appointed deputy commander Lang Bi as the fake commander. I don’t dare to think too much, but I will be satisfied if I can go to the Sixth West Division and become the deputy commander."

"When Kui Duoyou comes to Beijing to take up the post and the frontier army is established, I'm afraid the West Sixth Division will not have many opportunities to fight on the battlefield." Rong Yi said lightly, glanced sideways at his beloved disciple's increasingly red face, and finally relaxed.

He said, "Forget it, when Wei Duoyou goes to take office, I will just invite you in front of the king!"

"Thank you, Master!" Chong Li rarely showed such a hearty smile.

E Kun had been eating Ganoderma lucidum soup for ten days. Although his will was still depressed, fortunately he had regained his consciousness. Seeing his uncle busy with his arm wrapped in a bandage all day long, the old aunt introduced him to the old woman.

He works endlessly, and he is only a seven-foot-tall man, so how can he rely on a woman to support him? What’s more, he is not a blood relative.

He was determined to find some way to make a living. The village had a small population and few fields. In addition to farming, the men also fished and hunted in their spare time to supplement their food rations. But now that winter was approaching, fishing and hunting was no longer possible, so the people here went into the mountains to chop wood.

Some logs were used to make charcoal in the cave for sale.
