Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1052 Holy Order

Seeing this, Zhang Xin hurriedly said it again: "Your Majesty, what he means is that there will inevitably be heavy rain in Jiujiang Mansion and Nanchang Mansion in the past two days. The water level of lakes and rivers rose..."

  Emperor Hongzhi finally understood.

  Sometimes there is heavy rain after a severe drought, which is a common occurrence.

   It's just... Only God knows when the drought will end!

  Emperor Hongzhi stared at Zhang Xin: "Zhang Qing's family, will the drought end in these two days?"

  Zhang is confident that maybe, this has been dry for so long, God, who can tell clearly.

  He couldn't help looking at Wang Wenyu.

  Wang Wenyu said: "I dare to guarantee."

  Emperor Hongzhi became cautious.

  Of course he knows that there are two choices before him. A little carelessness may lead to possible consequences. He pondered and looked at Wang Wenyu: "What guarantee do you use?"

  Wang Wenyu said solemnly: "In this life, the person I admire the most is my teacher..."

  As soon as Fang Jifan was mentioned...

  Emperor Hongzhi's face softened.

  Fang Jifan's disciple and grandson should still have a reputation.

   I just made this decision hastily. What if it doesn’t rain these few days?

  Then, this severe drought, I am afraid...

  He took a deep breath: "What do you think about it?"

   "Your Majesty..."

  Hanlin are eager to try one by one.

  For them, it's too risky for an incomprehensible guy to influence the country's major policies.

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly pressed his hand: "This is a big deal after all. However, I believe in Fang Jifan, and naturally, I also believe in his disciples and grandchildren. Since he and the crown prince let you enter the palace, then... I will hire you without any doubts. Suspects don’t need it. Come, pass on my orders, and immediately go to Jiujiang Mansion on a fast horse, and order the local government to immediately reinforce the embankment. No, I’m afraid it’s too late to reinforce the embankment. Immediately evacuate the soldiers and civilians in the flooded area, as much as possible, must be fast!"

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Tell Nanchang Mansion and Jiujiang Mansion, all the prefectures and counties, if anyone is a step behind and hesitates a little, I will never forgive you lightly. As for the displaced victims, please rest assured that the food from the imperial court will be delivered immediately. Now, this food relief, I will urge it to continue!"

   After finishing speaking, all the Hanlin were speechless.

  Because of such a person, large-scale evacuation of the people, this is hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people displaced.

  Wang Wenyu listened, and quickly bowed down: "Your Majesty is wise."

  Hanlin want to say something one by one.

  Emperor Hongzhi's face was livid: "Hurry up!"

  ...

  In the capital, a message came out.

  His Majesty seems to have begun to activate the charlatan again.

   Regarding this... Fang Jifan has a lot of opinions.

   At any rate, he is not an ordinary person, and he knows the news from the palace quickly.

  When Wang Wenyu came down, Fang Jifan found him, his lungs were about to explode.

   "Dog-like thing, what are you talking about?"

   "Master...students...can guarantee that in the past few days, the northern part of Jiangxi...will definitely..."

"Bah!" Fang Jifan said: "Whether it rains or not, it has nothing to do with me. What do you say is that I am the most respected person. You can put it down. Are we familiar? Am I your father or your grandfather? What do you guarantee me?" ?”

  Fang Jifan bared his teeth, this precedent cannot be set.

  Seeing Wang Wenyu's expression of grief.

Fang Jifan's heart softened, he coughed, decided to reason with him, and squatted in front of Wang Wenyu who was kneeling on the ground: "Look, I have thousands of disciples and descendants, so many people, everyone can vouch for me, there is one person If I lose my hand, where will I put my face? Do I still have my head?"

"Shigong also knows that occasionally, Shigong will use you as a guarantee, but think about it, isn't it for your own good? You have thousands of people, and if one or two die, that is one thousandth or thousands of points One, this is a small probability event, do you study astronomy and geography instead of arithmetic?"

  When Wang Wenyu thought about it, he suddenly understood, and suddenly realized: "The student understands, and the student will die."

  Fang Jifan sighed: "Are you sure about Jiangxi?"

   "Yes, yes, the students have been observing geography and astronomy these years. At the same time, they have collected a large number of ancient books, as well as the literature of Mr. Xu Jing..."

  Fang Jifan pressed his hand: "That's it, no need to explain what books you usually read, just get lost!"

   "Oh." Wang Wenyu already knew that Shigong was like this.

It is rumored that... Shigong only treats the people closest to him like this, mentors and martial uncles, Shigong treats them like this, but... Shigong is not the same, he treats them like his own sons, which martial uncles, Speaking of Shigong, I am not happy.

  Thinking of this, Wang Wenyu's heart warmed up.

  Master... he also treats his son... no, he treats his own grandson, he treats himself.

  He was very moved.

   Wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, he choked with sobs and said, "Students have never given up on the teacher, and have received the grace of the teacher..."

   "Get out!"

  Fang Jifan pointed at the door.

  Shigong is Shigong, this rolling character is full of affection.

  Wang Wenyu didn't hesitate, got up and left without saying anything.

   After a while, Zhu Houzhao came in with his sleeves rolled up, and said, "Old Fang, have you heard? Nanchang Mansion is about to be flooded!"

  Fang Jifan glanced at Zhu Houzhao.

  Zhu Houzhao still has great affection for Nanchang Mansion: "In the past few years, some folks have sent crayfish to eat. The crayfish is stewed in oil and tastes really good. Now it's over, and the crayfish in this palace is gone."

Listening to this, Fang Jifan's mind instantly thought that when the lid of the pot was lifted, the steam was steaming into the sky, and the lobster braised in oil was red, with peppers, onions, and garlic on it. The spicy seasoning outside went into the meat, and the meat was a bit chewy, and it was delicious and fragrant after one bite.

  Fang Jifan felt that his saliva was about to flow out of the quarrel: "I heard about it."

  Zhu Houzhao said with emotion: "It's really regrettable, I suddenly want to eat shrimp."

   "Why don't you eat beef?" Fang Jifan said seriously.

  Zhu Houzhao was silent for a long time: "Okay."

  While the two ordered people to let Mr. Wen prepare, Fang Jifan suddenly remembered something: "Your Highness, what did we just say?"

   "Crayfish." Zhu Houzhao said.

  Fang Jifan shook his head: "The last sentence."

  Zhu Houzhao said: "Countless displaced people."

  Fang Jifan thumped his chest and fell down, heartbroken: "My poor people..."

  Zhu Houzhao: "..."

  ...

  Jiujiang prefect Zhu Rong waited anxiously for the news with his hands behind his back.

  His Majesty's decree has come, and now the disaster is urgent, the entire Jiujiang and Nanchang, the lakes are dry, cracked land is everywhere, countless people are dressed in rags, and in Fucheng, the people affected by the disaster are even more.

  God knows how long it will be dry, at this moment, His Majesty finally came to order Jiujiang Wei to open the Yangtze River to fetch water!

   This is not a small matter, and it must be done with caution, because once it is excavated, it means that there may be a catastrophe.

  Jiujiangwei, Zhu Rong has sent the news, waiting for the commander there to respond.

   But at this moment, the fast horse has arrived.

  The knight on the horse was almost exhausted and paralyzed.

  800-mile relay to deliver the news, the horse galloped all the way, not allowed to stop for a moment.

  At this time, the knight paralyzed in front of the yamen, with the last bit of strength, raised a bamboo tube in his hand: "Holy order!"

  Several servants hurriedly carried him in, and then someone took the bamboo tube and brought him in front of the prefect Zhu Rong.

  Zhu Xi was stunned for a moment, and opened the bamboo tube, which contained an urgent letter.

  He took it out, and when he saw it... his face suddenly changed.

   "Fu Gong, what's the matter?"

  Zhu Xie's face was horrified, his body trembled, and then he read the will again carefully.

   "This... hey..." Zhu Yun sighed.

  He is in Jiujiang Mansion, and his official reputation is not bad.

   It can be regarded as having a breeze with two sleeves and caring for the people.

   This severe drought, he has tried his best, but manpower is limited after all. Therefore, he thought of a way to dig a canal.

   This is also a no-brainer.

  How could you expect... His Majesty changed his mind immediately after the delivery of the previous decree, only two days later.

   Actually chose at this time to relocate all the people in the flooded areas.

   "Let's get promoted!" Zhu Yun shook his sleeves.

   This is a holy command, and the holy will cannot be violated.

  Subsequently, there was a sound of gold ringing in the yamen.

  From all over Jiujiang Mansion, the assistant officials arrived one after another.

  Zhu Yu took out the decree in public and read it out.

  Everyone in the Jiujiang Mansion looked at each other in blank dismay: "Your Majesty... this is not right, something is about to happen. This is the moment of a catastrophe, and people are in panic. Migration of the people at this time is tantamount to forcing the people to rebel."

   "This is the holy order!" Zhu Yun said seriously: "I will just follow the method, wait a minute, dare to disobey the order and disrespect it?"

   At this moment, everyone was silent.

Zhu Yu said seriously: "Hurry up, everyone must not be negligent, no matter what method is used, Jiujiang Guard must also participate, whoever dares to make any mistakes, dares to make any mistakes, dares to be perfunctory, Your Majesty punishes the old man, the old man I want to take your heads."

  He knew in his heart what this fast-paced order meant.

"All the people are placed in a high place for the time being. Tell them not to be afraid. There is still food in the house, which is enough to meet their needs. From a distance, His Majesty ordered that he will not ignore us. When the time comes , There will also be food for disaster relief, which will be sent in a steady stream."

   "Okay, that's all for now, gentlemen, in the face of a catastrophe, everything is about relief!"

  Zhu Xie flicked his sleeves: "The old man is sitting here. If you have any news, you must report it immediately. If there is an emergency, you can do it cheaply!"

   Zhu Rong finished speaking, there is no more words.

   All the officials obeyed their orders, so they did not dare to be negligent, and they went their own way.

  ……………

   Wait a minute, please ask for some monthly tickets.
