The Red Chamber is not a dream

[No.60 Six Chapters] Cha Xin's secrets and deceitful deceptions, asking for advice and sincerity

On the next day, Yunyu and Xue Die took the handbook and went to the breach.Seeing that all the officials were there, they had to salute each other once, and Yu Yu didn't have time to say more, so she said seriously: "Your official has been entrusted with an important task by the Holy Spirit, so naturally I dare not not do my best; a few days ago, the two of us also went here Come and see, I drew up this regulation yesterday and reported it to the Holy Majesty. Your Majesty said that all the adults have been here for a long time to control the water, which is much more than what I have seen. Teach us to use this regulation. Bring it over here, and please revise it, my lords." In a short while, some attendants distributed the previously copied copies to everyone's hands, and Yuyu laughed again: "We are new here, so it is inevitable that we are not familiar with each other; we must ask everyone Please teach me a lot.”

Not to mention what everyone thought after hearing his words; for a while, they all took the water control regulations drawn up by Yunyu into their hands, and each looked through them, all of them were surprised.Among them, an official named Qian Jiangchuan exchanged glances with the person beside him, then cupped his hands and said to Yunyu: "Look at the writing on it, there is still one thing I don't understand, and I hope you can enlighten me, Young Master Lin." He didn't say "Master Lin", but called "Young Master Lin", obviously did not regard Jinyu as an official like himself; Jinyu was not annoyed when he heard the words, but said: "Uncle Qian, please tell me." Qian Jiang Chuan Dao: "It's a good plan to open a canal to divert water. But why do you want to take the Mang Mountain? You must know that this move is far away from the near; if you don't divert the water to the Ding River along the mouth of the flood discharge, so that the two rivers merge. Wouldn't it be great?" Save manpower?"

Everyone nodded their heads when they heard his words.Seeing such a scene, Zhenyu smiled and said, "Qian Shishu might as well draw the route you want on this map." Someone sent a pen and ink, and Qian Jiangchuan took it. After sketching on the map, she put down the pen and said, "That's it." Yan Yu signaled the attendants to take the map with her, looked at it for a while, and said with a smile, "It's actually closer than what we drew. I just don't know Qian Shi How will Uncle open this river?" After that, he was not allowed to think, so he sneered and said: "The underground in this area is all granite, which is extremely hard; even if it can be dug, it will take three to two years. I am afraid that Qian Shi Uncle hasn't looked there yet!" Everyone was in an uproar and whispered; Qian Jiangchuan's face was red, and he said after a long time: "I forgot." Yunyu laughed and said, "Qian Shishu's plan is not bad at all. , It’s just that the Holy Majesty ordered us to ‘as soon as possible’, so it seems that it doesn’t work. Please read this charter carefully again, if you don’t have any objections, it’s best to act as soon as possible.”

When everyone heard the words, they took a closer look at it; some of them understood it, and felt that the plan was feasible; or some of them didn't understand, seeing Qian Jiangchuan's nose was ashamed just now, they didn't dare to be brave anymore, but among them Those who deliberately disapprove of it will inevitably show a point or two on the face.Yanyu and Xue Die watched it without making a sound, but secretly wrote down the feelings of several people and compared it with what they remembered in the past.After seeing everything for a while, and without any objection, they each received their errands. On the one hand, they transferred migrant workers from various places to open canals to divert water;Everyone is responsible for their own duties, but it is also orderly.Zhenyu and Xue Die went separately to inspect various places and returned at night.

In the evening, when the two returned to their room, they told each other what they had seen that day. Xue Die said, "When I looked over there, I saw that although the number of things they had prepared was not enough, they were complete in everything. It can be seen that there had been a long time ago." Prepared. From this point of view, they clearly have a plan, but they don't bring it out; now that we have a plan, and there is no delay, they gradually take out some things, but they only say that it is difficult for us to make arrangements, and they blindly act against it. It is intentional procrastination." Yu Yu said: "What you said is exactly the same as what I saw. It can be seen that they had a plan early in the morning, but why didn't they come out early to ask for credit and reward, and just hide their foolishness and be clumsy?" Xue Die He laughed and said: "You know it yourself, but you asked me again. It's just that where they want to go to ask for credit is not in front of the present; throughout the ages, there are many people who make use of this natural disaster to make a fuss; or that the current sage is not wise. , or make up some stories, saying that you are the one who is destined to return, what is so strange about it?"

His words can be regarded as treasonous, upon hearing this, Yunyu sighed with a smile: "I have lived these two lifetimes, and only you dare to speak in front of me. This statement is true, it must be written by the Third Prince again." It turned out that the third prince recruited all kinds of talents early in the morning, and among them was this person who was good at water control; the flood was rampant, and although the Holy Majesty never sent him to handle this matter, he secretly asked people to come here to investigate, and after many discussions, he came up with a clever plan for water control , but did not take it out, but privately ordered his confidantes to hoard in flooded places, and while collecting money, made a lot of complaints, and secretly ordered people to spread words such as the emperor's actions were wrong, and the gods punished them, in order to fool the people, and at the same time Falling into fame today; when the time comes, if you ascend the throne, you will be governed immediately, and you will see results immediately, and you will naturally establish your prestige, and you will also teach people to believe that you are the real dragon emperor.

The third prince made up his wishful thinking, so he intentionally made it difficult for people to manage it. Although he saw the flood, he didn't take the lives of the common people seriously. compassion.Today, I heard a secret report and knew that the seriousness of the flood was far greater than the compromise of the local officials, so I was very worried. I also saw that the method of water control was mentioned in the policy theory written by Yun Yu and Xue Die the day before yesterday, so I thought to myself: "That one People are now a little older, and they have the idea of ​​"no merit, no fault". It's better for young scholars to have a youthful spirit, and it's unknown whether they can have a miracle to stop the flood." If you think about it, you will be prepared For the southern tour, you have to go to Henan and other places to see it in person, and you can rest assured until you see that the floods are all over.When it came to the local area, I first saw Yan Yu, Xue Die and others went to see the breach, and drew up the regulations overnight. When I looked closely, the rigor was amazing; It's no problem to check the behavior of the officials here.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed.In the past few days, Yunyu and Xue Die went to supervise the excavation of the canal every day, and they had the confidantes sent by the Holy Majesty to strictly watch over them. Seeing that the project was progressing smoothly, they breathed a sigh of relief. Because I came here to find Feng Yan.Today, because of Xi Fengyan's skill, he ordered five or six people to be the head of the guards; he patrolled the residence every morning and evening, and had nothing else to do.On that day, Feng Yan had nothing to do, and was reading a book in his room. Seeing Yun Yu and his wife came, he quickly put down his book and got up and said with a smile: "You two brothers have always worked hard. Why do you have the time to look for me now?" Yun Yu laughed. "It's just one thing to bother you." Feng Yan hurriedly asked what was the matter, and Yunyu taught him to come over and whispered in his ear; Feng Yan was shocked when he heard this, and seeing Yunyu smiled again: "Just let go and do it This matter has already been approved by the Holy One." Feng Yan took out the handwriting and read it with him, and Feng Yan was relieved and nodded in agreement; Time does not show.

Two days later, Yunyu saw that everything was running on the right track, so she inspected all the places, talked to Feng Yan secretly, and thought about it, she saw that it was the same as what she experienced in her previous life. , Fang went to see him at the place where the saint stayed.Seeing his serious face today, I don't know why, but he smiled and said: "But there are some difficulties in water control? It's okay, this matter is difficult, and I never blamed you." Zhenyu took out the booklet from her bosom and presented it Go up, stand aside silently.The Holy Majesty knew that he must have something important to tell, when he opened the booklet to read, his face changed again and again; after reading it for a while, he remained silent for a long time, and said for a long time: "How did you know it? "

Yu Yu bowed up and said calmly: "It's just a coincidence that I'm terrified. On the road that day, I met a group of hungry people discussing this matter. I didn't wear official uniforms. When I heard this, I went up to ask; I couldn't help being suspicious of this statement, but I was afraid that someone would deliberately slander the imperial court official, so I secretly told Qi Lin to ask him to investigate; he was quick, and got the news within a few days. The minister felt that this matter I'm not small, I don't dare to be self-confident, but I came here to report." Seeing that his face is normal today, I first got rid of some doubts, thought about it again, and then sighed: "If the third prince can be like you, I will You don’t have to worry about it every day.”

When Yun Yu heard this, her heart was quite different; seeing that the Holy Majesty did not call him "Zhen", but called "I", and compared herself with the third prince, she obviously doubted her identity, so she bowed: " I don't dare to stand shoulder to shoulder with the third prince; it's just that I have little knowledge, I'm afraid that someone will have ulterior motives and do it on purpose, and I will panic for a while, so I will make a mistake, so please don't blame me." Now when the expression on his face has returned to normal, he heard this. Nai smiled and said, "Why do you have to be self-effacing? You have also met Li Lin's father, but hasn't he ever told you who you look like?" Yuyu shook her head and said, "No I heard that Feng Shibo said it." Now I don't say anything, and after a long time, I smiled and said: "You and Lin Qing are born with nothing in common. This time, you are the first to deal with the flood; when this matter is over, you will arrive in Beijing. What kind of reward do you want?" Yunyu laughed and said, "It's my honor to share the worries of the Holy One, so how dare you ask for more rewards?"

Shaking his head today, he said: "Given by the elders, I dare not resign. I am older than your father, and I always look at you like my nephew; you just say it." Hearing this, Yuyu bowed again Said: "In this way, I have the courage to ask for a grace for my younger sister." Today, I was surprised when I heard the words, so I asked why; but I heard him say: "The mother of the minister died early, and the younger sister was still young that day; Now that I am getting older, it is natural to have a marriage discussion. There is a saying that "the eldest daughter of a bereaved woman does not marry because she has no education." Speak up. I'm a man, so it's fine; it's just that my younger sister is a weak girl, it's pitiful, so I take the liberty to ask the Holy One for a grace, and I can't thank you enough."

The Holy Majesty heard that his mother died young, but it just touched that thought, and seeing the sincerity on Yunyu's face, he sighed. After Beijing, there will naturally be a saying; you don't have to worry about that matter anymore, just don't know, and you will be able to control the water with all your heart." Hearing the words, Yuyu bowed and agreed; seeing that the saint was tired, Knowing that he was tired, he called out and came outside.
