The Red Mansion's Doting Wife Maniac
Chapter 80
There are too many officials involved in the case of embezzlement of public funds of the Mohe River. There are as many as 50 people, and there are seven or eight people with high official positions, ranging from the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, the Governor of Hedao, the governor, and the magistrate.
The emperor was so angry that he was about to smoke.
Every morning, there would be quarrels over who to send to repair the dam, which everyone knew had been cutting corners for nearly seven years.
Now that it is the flood season, no one knows whether the dam will be washed away during the repair.
At that time, this will be a crime that fell from the sky. If the impact of the disaster is not great, your crime will be lighter, but the impact of the disaster will be great, and the black hat on your head will say goodbye to you.
Therefore, most people are unwilling to go, and those who are willing to go suffer from the fact that they don't know how to control the water, and they dare not recommend themselves for fear of adding fuel to the fire.
Blood flowed into rivers at the Meridian Gate, and the emperor was furious in the morning court, and left in a huff, ordering the cabinet to choose a suitable candidate within seven days.
Chen Yunjuan's grandfather was the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, and naturally he was also a member of the cabinet. When he returned to the mansion, he would inevitably feel a headache.
The founding of this dynasty is less than a hundred years old, and there are no talents who can control floods at all. If there is anyone who can control floods, it must be a famous official from the previous dynasty.
But before the founding of this dynasty, this talented person who managed floods had already died of illness. It will take time to find out whether he has any descendants.
But at present, there is obviously no time to investigate. Even if the descendants are found, it may not be possible to control the flood.
Soon the deadline given by the emperor came, and finally a servant from the Ministry of Industry was selected to go.
However, before the servant could leave, the news that the dam had been washed away spread back to the capital.
The emperor was furious, so he could only send another imperial envoy to rescue the disaster, but there were differences in the candidates for the disaster relief.
In the end, the emperor resisted all opinions and appointed the seventh prince, Prince Rui, to preside over the relief work. When Prince Rui chose to follow the officials, he added Chen Yunxian's name to it.
Hearing that Chen Yunxian was going to follow Prince Rui to rescue the disaster, Chen Yun was very worried, but none of the rewards in his hand could be useful at this time.
Chen Yunxian touched his younger brother's head and said with a smile, "I'm here for disaster relief, and nothing will happen."
The disaster relief team hadn't even passed the Mid-Autumn Festival, so they hurriedly left Beijing to go to the disaster relief.
Even Chen Yunjuan was worried about his brother, how could his sister-in-law, Shen Shi, who had a very good relationship with her brother, not be worried?
Chen Yunjue was also worried that his elder brother was not at home, and his sister-in-law would hurt the fetus because of overthinking, so he had to send her sister-in-law food made of spiritual water every morning and evening. The aroma of the food makes you want to eat a little bit, but you can't help but finish it after a little bit.
Chen Yun controlled the weight, but he wouldn't hold on.
Since Chen Yunxian went to the disaster relief, Chen Yunjue went back to the academy to study.
Unlike Chen Yunju, Shao Yinian didn't ask for leave.
At first, many people in the academy were talking about the conflict between the three of them, but after Lu Yongyuan's family was questioned, no one talked about Lu Yongyuan anymore.
Because Lu Yongyuan, who has become a prisoner, is no longer in the same world as them, and it is meaningless to talk about him.
He even lost the right to be ridiculed by them.
Chen Yunjue's return made the academy lively for a while, but because the dam was washed away and the flood was raging, no one dared to laugh and play at this time. Even the teacher felt a little heavy when he was in class.
As news of casualties came back to the capital one after another, the emperor's mood became even worse.
Prince Jing, who was imprisoned at the beginning, was expelled from the clan and sent to prison after the dam was washed away.
When the huge number of casualties was reported back to the capital, the enraged emperor issued an order to ransack the entire Prince Jing's mansion.
However, even so, it cannot make the disaster situation any better.
There have been many victims in the south of the Yangtze River. Floods are usually accompanied by epidemics. No one dares to open the city gates to let these ragged victims enter the city.
Once someone carries the disease and it breaks out, the responsibility cannot be borne by a small magistrate.
When Chen Yun heard the news of the victims, he was also very worried, for fear that something might happen to his elder brother.
It is also a difficult problem to rebuild the dam after the dam breaks.
Just when everyone was helpless, a young man claimed to have a solution.
This young man seemed to be only in his twenties, and everyone said that he could not do things well without hair on his mouth. No one could believe this young man who appeared out of nowhere.
But Chen Yunxian dared to believe it. After getting in touch with this young man, he realized that his ancestors were the descendants of Pan Weiyi, a famous water control official in the previous dynasty. He read the water control strategies left by his ancestors since he was a child. But he has the confidence to solve the current predicament.
Chen Yunxian took him to find Prince Rui, and if he said that he was the descendant of Pan Weiyi, a famous minister of water control in the former dynasty, if he could solve the current predicament, his credibility would be much higher.
In the end, Prince Rui came forward to guarantee the young man named Pan Xingyan and let him deal with the flood.
Previously, people were unwilling to allow this young man to try, because if there was any damage, all the faults would be borne by them, but now that Prince Rui came to guarantee, if anything happened, then Prince Rui would bear the responsibility.
That being the case, who cares whether this young man can control the water?
However, those who wanted to see a joke were disappointed. Per Xingyan did get a bit of truth, but after more than a month of hard work, the flood was under control. The dam only needed to be repaired, and the flood was over.
As for the victims, it is natural to wait for the flood on the dam side to be brought under control before disaster relief can begin.
After the problem on the dam was contained, Prince Rui took Chen Yunxian and others to rescue the disaster, and the money for the disaster relief was delivered one after another.
Prince Rui brought Chen Yunxian to the south of the Yangtze River, and unexpectedly someone took advantage of the floods to amass money and raised the price of food to an astonishing level. Prince Rui was furious and beat and killed a group of profiteers, only then did he curb this unhealthy trend. Evil.
Fortunately, although there was an epidemic, it was contained in time without spreading, and the casualties were under control. By the time the disaster relief came to an end, it was already approaching the New Year.
Chen Yunxian, Prince Rui and others arrived in the capital two days before New Year's Eve.
I haven't seen him for nearly half a year. The gentle and elegant Chen Yunxian has an unshaven beard and looks very vicissitudes of life. He rested hard for two days. After the rest, he regained his former handsomeness.
Chen Yunxian returned safely, and the depression that had accumulated in the Chen residence for several months dissipated in one fell swoop.
The next day is the New Year, and the Chen Mansion is full of joy.
Shen's belly is also getting bigger and bigger, and the delivery date is only one or two months away.
After the new year, Chen Yunxian was promoted as soon as the imperial court opened the seal.
If the Ministry of Officials is promoted again, it will be the position of the Minister of the Second Rank. No matter how much credit Chen Yunxian has made, he cannot be directly promoted from the Lang of the Ministry of Officials to the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. Therefore, he was transferred to Dali Temple and served as the Minister of Dali Temple.
In other words, Lu Yongyuan's father did not hold an official position before he was imprisoned.
In the case of He Dao's corruption of ink, many positions were vacated. The emperor promoted many officials, and selected a group of people from the Hanlin Academy to fill the vacancies in low-level official positions. Only the official position of Dali Temple Minister has been vacant.
Now it seems that it is reserved for Chen Yunxian.
As the first champion of the dynasty since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Chen Yunxian is an auspicious sign of the dynasty, and he is well-known in front of the emperor. As long as he can be promoted, there must be Chen Yunxian.
On the ninth day of February, Shen's family gave birth to a daughter in peace, and Chen Yunxian named her Jingxian.
Chen Yunjue still went to the academy every day, and as his elder brother was promoted, he had more official duties. Basically, he went back to the government office every day, and only had time to check his schoolwork.
This year is the competition period, and last year Sheng Qinghan and Yu Qiuwei won the third place, slapping a group of poor scholars.
The results of the examination were released, and Sheng Qinghan was awarded the first prize in high school. When it was time for the palace examination, the emperor hand-picked him as the number one scholar.
Later, Princess Rong An was given a marriage to Sheng Qinghan. Princess Rong An already existed this year, and she was the first princess who had not yet married at this age.
Obviously, the reason her marriage has been delayed until now is because of Sheng Qinghan.
Sheng Qinghan was the number one scholar and was married to a princess.
During the Dragon Boat Festival, Chen Yun was taken by his brother to meet Sheng Qinghan in the manor.
Chen Yunxian congratulated Sheng Qinghan for getting his wish fulfilled, and Sheng Qinghan congratulated Chen Yunxian for having both sons and daughters and a prosperous official career.
Even Xie Xiuyun couldn't listen to each other's flattery.
"Aren't you enough?" Xie Xiuyun borrowed fruit wine for Chen Yun, "You guys are flattering each other, younger brother Yunjue is getting annoyed, right?"
Chen Yunjue: "..."
I don't, I'm not, don't pull on me.
"Don't take my younger brother with you." Chen Yunxian said, and then poured wine for the two of them, "Qinghan has good news now, when do you plan to get married?"
Xie Xiuyun was speechless, "You're not my father, why do you care when I get married?"
Chen Yun twitched the corner of his mouth and almost laughed.
Chen Yunxian glanced at him, "It's not good that you are always alone like this."
"I think it's good to be alone..." Xie Xiuyun frowned, not wanting to talk about this topic, and turned to ask Chen Yunjue, "Brother Yunjue, why do you think people get married? You can live well alone. I am alone." The whole family doesn't have to worry about eating enough, so why do you have to marry a daughter-in-law?
Look at your eldest brother, and then look at your brother Qinghan, who spends all day around his wife and future daughter-in-law, and even has less time to play. "
Chen Yun was stunned. Ask him about this kind of thing?
"Yunyu is still young, what do you ask him for?" Chen Yunxian gave Xiuyun a glance, "It's fine if you don't want to get married yourself, don't instill some weird ideas in my brother."
Chen Yun pursed his lips and gave Xiu Yun a sympathetic look.
In fact, he felt that whether or not to get married depends on whether there is a loved one, if it is just to make ends meet, then it is not as good as being alone.
This elder brother Xiuyun obviously hasn't met his destined person yet, otherwise he wouldn't be able to say such... some naive words.
"What's a strange idea?" Xie Xiuyun muttered, but didn't go on.
Seeing this, Chen Yunxian shook his head and sighed.
Sheng Qinghan poured wine for Chen Yunxian, "Xiuyun hasn't met anyone he admires yet, so it's not surprising that he has such thoughts."
Xie Xiuyun was born in Jianghu, so he didn't care much about marriage.
Chen Yunxian took a sip of wine and stopped talking about it.
Full of wine and food, everyone went back to their respective homes.
Although Chen Yunjue only drank fruit wine, he drank a little too much and was still drunk.
After he returned to the house, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
He opened his eyes bewilderedly, and saw Daiyu squatting in front of him, he leaned back in fright, "Sister Lin?"
Seeing that he was startled, Daiyu couldn't help laughing, and then asked, "Brother Yunzhu, did you drink?"
Chen Yun rubbed his eyebrows, "When did I come?"
"It's been a while since I've been here, I've been sitting on the ground with my eyes closed, my face looks drunk, I must have been drinking," Daiyu said.
The emperor was so angry that he was about to smoke.
Every morning, there would be quarrels over who to send to repair the dam, which everyone knew had been cutting corners for nearly seven years.
Now that it is the flood season, no one knows whether the dam will be washed away during the repair.
