Chapter 851: Reunion year



  He raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Xun, and saw him leaning on his knees with one hand, looking sideways at the floor tiles, but in fact, he was listening carefully.

  Xiao Changyao couldn't help being overjoyed, "Yangzhou and Huai'an were originally extremely rich places, but in the past two years, there have been refugees everywhere and starvation everywhere, especially in Qinghe County."

He sighed and said in a heavy voice, "River affairs are a top priority. Now we can only temporarily build remote dikes in addition to the remote dikes to protect the farmland first. If we want to completely rectify it, we need to work hard. "

  The so-called great effort requires a huge amount of money. In the past three years, although the court allocated a lot of money, the money that fell into his hands and was actually used to manage the river affairs was less than one-fifth of the allocated money.

  This is already very good, he is a dignified prince, the governor of Hedao, even though he has been deducted a lot, it still saves him some face.

However, he also had someone in the imperial court, how much he originally dialed, how much fell into his hands, when he knew, he lost his temper in the yamen, and the old man in the yamen told him, "His Royal Highness, be content, Don’t say one-fifth, it’s not even one-tenth, otherwise, how could the embankment burst every year and everywhere!”

  He never knew that the government of officials has been corrupted to such an extent, is this still the prosperous age that everyone in Beijing praises?

  Does the emperor know?

  Is the father worthy of the country he usurped by using such means?

   "If you want to manage the river, how much money does the second brother need?"

Xiao Changyao thought he heard it wrong, he looked at Xiao Xun in astonishment, Xiao Xun didn't know when he sat upright, leaned on the back of the chair, and looked at Xiao Changyao solemnly, "Second brother, if you want to manage the river, How much silver do you need?"

  He looked a little embarrassed, "In the past two or three years, the imperial court spent the treasury to support the wars in the western and northern borders, so that very little money was allocated to the river, which made it difficult for the second brother."

  Xiao Changyao could hear the sound of his own heartbeat, he stammered, "Fifth, fifth brother, I, I, second brother, I didn't mean that."

He closed his eyes, and simply said, "In the past three years, the second brother has been deeply moved. If Dayong continues this way, it may not be five years. No, in three years, there may be chaos, even if I, the prince, are the river channel Governor, the money allocated by the imperial court is also withheld layer upon layer, the river is like this, what about other places?"

  The son does not speak of his father's faults, not to mention, for the past twenty years, his father has been in charge of the world of Dayong.

  However, it is impossible for him not to speak.

He couldn't help looking at Xiao Xun full of expectation, "Five emperors, my father sent me to inspect the river that year. At first, I thought I was just riding in a carriage and looking along the embankment, but when I walked to Xuzhou Nearby, it started to rain. I remember it was in June. It was like a hole had been dug in the sky. It rained so hard that no one could be seen on the opposite side. "Grandpa, why don't you come down and take a few steps?" I lifted the curtain of the car, and the wind almost wiped me away..."

  It was very quiet inside and out, and there was no sound in the Xici room. Obviously, everyone was listening, and Xiao Changyao's voice gradually became very sad.

  Those who listened had mixed feelings in their hearts, and it was hard to imagine the situation at that time. Under such a violent storm, if it was not really a last resort, Tong An, as Xiao Changyao's personal entourage, would not have suggested that Xiao Changyao get out of the car and leave.

"I had no choice but to get out of the car, and Tong An and Tong Gui supported me on the left and right. In that case, it can only be said that the three of us are holding hands, and we will not be blown away by the wind. There are guards in front, and there is the one who is not stable. , was blown and hit me, and the rain hurt my body. I can dream of the scene many times later. But this is not the worst time. I finally saw the city wall, but when we approached At that time, a lot of people suddenly poured out of the city, those who dragged their children and children, those who carried household belongings, those who drove carriages... rushed over like that tide."

Xiao Xun took a deep look at Xiao Changyao, and then lowered his eyes again. In this life, a person cannot always act according to his own wishes. There is a saying that people are not as good as God. It's not that person who has the final say.

"I was scared to death when I saw it. I stayed with Anla and asked what was going on. The man was afraid that he would walk a step slower, and said, brother, run, the flood is coming, and the Yellow River has burst. Before I could react, Tongan asked He grabbed me, and we ran forward desperately. There was a rumbling sound behind us. After a long distance, I turned my head and saw that amidst the confused rain and fog, the flood washed away the city wall, and those who escaped from the city The ordinary people were washed everywhere like ants."

  In the Xici room, there was the sound of sobbing, Xie Zhiwei glanced at the jacaranda, the others were okay, they were just listening to a tragic story, only the jacaranda covered her face and wept.

   Only those who have tasted the misery in the world can understand this kind of tragedy!

"I stood on the mountain. When I went there, there were more than 20 guards. However, when the flood rushed past my feet, as long as I was with Tongan, after Tonggui finally pushed me up, the flood washed him away. At that moment, I made up my mind that my life, and this river, will never die!"

Xiao Changyao closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was a flash of water in his eyes, "Everything floating on the surface of the water is living beings, flying in the sky, running on the ground, even swimming in the water, in the face of such a catastrophe , Humans are so insignificant that they cannot compete with those creatures, I have personally seen snakes entangled in trees entangled people to death bit by bit, just to compete for the few branches sticking out of the water."

   It's New Year's Eve, and the women and servants inside and out are all standing still, like wooden stakes.

   After Cui Nanjia shed her tears and wiped them with a handkerchief, the maids finally came back to life like a person whose tears turned into stone, and water was brought to clean her face. Mrs. Zhao glanced at Xie Zhiwei, saw Xie Zhiwei nodded, and waved out the window.

  A servant woman came in, blessed her body, and said to Zhao, "Shi Zifei, the kitchen is ready, and the meal can be delivered at any time."

   The third update!
