In his more than [-] years as an official, Sun Jinyan has always had smooth sailing, but this year, he feels that he is extremely unlucky.

When the drought first broke out, as the prefect of Yuzhou, he failed to report the drought to the court in a timely manner and failed to take any preventive measures. Officials sent by the court to inspect Yuzhou complained and was reprimanded by the court.

The imperial court even ordered him to send people to Ganzhou to learn from Chu Tianjiao how to be a good pastor of a state.

This made Sun Jinyan feel very embarrassed.

What qualifications does a yellow-haired girl who has only been acting as Ganzhou's prefectural shepherd for half a year have to overpower her?

Although he had never met Chu Tianjiao, Sun Jinyan already felt disgusted with Chu Tianjiao in his heart.

Then Yuzhou suffered from a severe drought and a civil uprising occurred.

He hurriedly sent people to Shangjing and sent a priceless ancient painting to Ye Linxuan, the Minister of Civil Affairs, so that he could keep his official position.

Seeing that it was raining, the drought was over, and the civil unrest in southern Henan had inexplicably subsided, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, God seemed to be against him, and it rained heavily for days.

Seeing that all counties were reporting flood disasters, he learned wisely this time and reported the flood disaster in Yuzhou to the court as soon as possible, giving an early warning that the river might burst its banks.

Sun Jinyan didn't know that the imperial court had issued a decree asking Chu Tianjiao to help him fight the flood.

Although he felt uncomfortable, Sun Jinyan, who had been in the officialdom for many years, had the mentality not to offend anyone easily, so he immediately dressed up and rushed to the prefecture's government office to meet Chu Tianjiao.

Chu Tianjiao left [-] Quzhou troops outside the city to rest, and took Zichen and others into Xingyang City.

Sun Jinyan politely welcomed Chu Tianjiao into the official office and ordered tea to be served.

Seeing Chu Tianjiao in military uniform, Sun Jinyan asked: "General Chu, is there any urgent military matter that passes by Xingyang?"

Chu Tianjiao took out Cui Shang's letter of recommendation wrapped in oil paper, handed it to Sun Jinyan, and briefly explained the reason for his appearance.

Sun Jinyan tried hard to control his facial expression while reading the letter.

"General Chu's righteousness actually left Ganzhou under his jurisdiction and came to Yuzhou to provide disaster relief. I admire this noble character and integrity."

Chu Tianjiao heard the irony in the words, but she was not angry. This time, she had indeed overstepped her authority. It was only human nature that Sun Jinyan would be unhappy.

"I also ask for your forgiveness, Mr. Sun. I am coincidentally meeting the occasion and have no intention of intervening in the government affairs of Yuzhou. I am only here to fight against natural disasters.

If you need help with the floods in Yuzhou, please make it clear to Mr. Sun that I will take charge of Mr. Sun and obey the arrangements. "

The official position of state pastor is the second rank. In addition to the post of state pastor, Chu Tianjiao also has a military position, which is half a level higher than Sun Jinyan.

Seeing that Chu Tianjiao did not rely on his higher official position, Sun Jinyan felt a little better.

"You're welcome, Mr. Chu. I accept Mr. Chu's wishes, but now I have arranged the affairs in Yuzhou and don't need any manpower.

Mr. Chu, it is better to rest in Xingyang for a day and continue to go south to the south of the Yangtze River to buy grain.

A lack of food in the army can easily lead to mutiny, Master Chu, please don't delay the business. "

Sun Jinyan wanted to drive Chu Tianjiao away.

Now that Chu Tianjiao is here, he will never leave easily until he sees that the embankments of the river are stable.

"Master Sun, do you think the embankments of the river are stable and will never burst? I wonder if Master Sun can invite Yuzhou Water Cao to come and tell me about the reinforcement of the embankments along the river?"

Sun Jinyan looked troubled: "Master Shui Cao Nie went to Fengqiu River Embankment to check. I'm afraid he won't be able to come back for a while."

Chu Tianjiao immediately stood up, raised his hands and said to Sun Jin: "On the way here, I also asked the local people in Yuzhou that the water in the Fengqiu River section is much higher than the ground, and it must be extremely dangerous with such heavy rain for days.

I'll rush to see Mr. Nie right now.

If nothing happens, you can leave with peace of mind. "

After saying that, regardless of Sun Jinyan's embarrassment and attempts to stay, he left the Yuzhou government office directly.

Sun Jinyan looked at Chu Tianjiao's back, waved his official sleeve, and cursed: "Mind your own business!"

Chu Tianjiao left Xingyang City and led the Quzhou Army straight to Fengqiu River Embankment.

Nie Feng, the Yuzhou water cao who was on the Fengqiu river embankment, was directing the migrant workers to pile stones, sandbags, and wood onto the river embankment.

"Sir, I can't help it, it's raining too much, the water level keeps rising, and it's almost overflowing!"

"Sir, there are no more rocks!"

"Sir, the migrant workers have been working continuously for three days and three nights, and many of them have fallen!"

...

People kept rushing over to report the situation to Nie Feng. Nie Feng's raincoat had long been soaked. He found it too heavy, so he took it off and threw it on the ground.

"Hold on, no matter how hard it is, you must hold on for me!"

The subordinates shouted in despair: "Master Nie, we can't stand it. You see, there are already springs on the embankment, and they are blocked one after another. This section of the embankment cannot be saved."

Nie Feng roared in the rain: "If you can't withstand it, you must. Do you know the consequences of this section of the dike breaking? There are hundreds of villages and how many people below. What do you want them to do?"

The subordinate suggested: "Hurry and report to Master Zhou Mu and let him organize the evacuation of the people!"

Nie Feng also knew that the people must be evacuated.

However, due to the previous drought, half of the victims in Yuzhou rushed to the banks of the river.

Once the river bursts its banks, it will plunge thousands of miles.

Even if we have to evacuate, where can so many people evacuate to?

Nie Feng could only compete with the sky for time, hoping that the river embankment could hold on for a while longer.

Of course, he also sent people back to the Prefectural Mufu and coastal counties to warn officials to quickly evacuate the people along the coast.

During the wind and rain, a huge wave hit the river bed, and several migrant workers who were stacking sandbags on the shore were swept into the river.

Nie Feng watched several migrant workers disappear into the river and closed his eyes in despair.

"My lord, my lord, Lord Chu has come to the rescue with his army!"

Nie Feng opened his eyes fiercely: "Which Mr. Chu?"

Seeing the scene on the river embankment, Chu Tianjiao had no time to be polite to Nie Feng, and immediately ordered: "The Quzhou Army listens to the order, all disarm, listen to Master Nie's command, and join the flood fight immediately!"

Chu Tianjiao himself also took off his black iron armor and threw it aside. While rolling up his sleeves, he said to Nie Feng:

"Master Nie, the [-] Quzhou Army, including myself, are now at your disposal.

You can tell me how to allocate manpower to strengthen the river embankment. "

Tears welled up in Nie Feng's eyes, and he looked up to the sky with excitement and shouted: "God bless Yuzhou! God bless Yuzhou!"

It has never been so late, sisters, please forgive me!

My computer broke down early in the morning, and it took a day to fix it, but I still have the computer code in my hand.

I'm not used to code writing on mobile phones. It feels slow and inconsistent.

I went out to repair my computer, and I clearly saw a parking sign on the side of the road. When I came back, my car was ticketed, and I learned that parking was only available on weekends and nights. The look in my eyes, ugh...

I always believe that things will come together in good times. I have been having bad luck for a few days. I hope things will start to turn around tomorrow morning.

By the way, the editor asked me to test the title of the book, but I really don’t know how to name it. How about sisters help me think of a title for this book that will make everyone’s eyes brighter?
