The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 967
Although Gu Chengyu was also very worried about this matter, he didn't want to interfere in the verbal confrontation between the two.After all, a prince is just a prince, and it is the emperor who can make up his mind and implement it.If he has any good suggestions, he might as well talk to the emperor directly.

And this is also considered a political achievement, giving benefits to others and letting others take credit, Gu Chengyu thinks that he is not so great.

Unavoidably cold, He Jisheng naturally took over the conversation.

"It's going to rain today, and we have no countermeasures. Even though we are worried about Jiangnan and other places, the emperor has already appointed officials to go there. We are far away in the capital, and we are beyond reach!"

In fact, He Jisheng also felt that this matter could not be done by human beings, and he had made all the preparations that should be done, and naturally he had to wait for fate to do the rest.

Gu Chengyu sneered when he heard this, what is no countermeasure?Even if you can't stop the rain from the sky, you can do something to prepare for it.

He has handed over the secret document today and is waiting for the emperor to summon him.

This matter must be prepared earlier, not afraid of accidents, just in case.

If it's just overflow, it's not too dangerous.Just like the prince said, the people only lost some property at most.

But what if the river broke the dam?The consequences would be unimaginable.

Where do these Beijing officials know the danger of the dam being washed away?They are pampered and pampered, and they only dig camp every day, trying to find ways to improve themselves.

What is the life of the people in the eyes of these people?Taking ten thousand steps back, even if the dam were to collapse, it would have no effect on them.

They are still their officials, well-clothed and well-fed, and their lives will not change in any way.

At most, they were reprimanded by the emperor at the court meeting. Anyway, everyone has a thick skin.

As long as the emperor doesn't act in a serious manner and just scolds a few words, it won't hurt or itch for them.

Of course, there are also some good officials who are considerate of the people, and things cannot be said so absolutely.

"It's going to rain today, and manpower is the only way to do it. His Royal Highness is concerned about the country and the people, which is really a blessing for the people. But this matter is really difficult. We are far away in the capital, and we don't know the situation in those state capitals. However, recently In the past few days, the water newspapers from those state capitals have rushed to the capital, and judging from the water newspapers, the dams of the Tianya River can still bear it for the time being."

He Jisheng has always been a good man, first he flattered the prince, and then he said some nonsense nonsense.

The prince was a little impatient. He understood that these officials were not of his own lineage, so naturally it was impossible to work together with him.

It's just that before he came here just now, he had already summoned trusted staff and officials in the East Palace.But everyone was at a loss and didn't know how to deal with it.

Even if one or two officials have good suggestions, he thinks it is very feasible, but he suffers from the fact that he does not have the right to do so.

The prince cast his eyes on the silent Gu Chengyu, his eyes were fixed.

This is the significance of his summoning these officials, and he doesn't pay attention to other officials at all.

These ministers of the imperial court could not control the master at the top, and died at the bottom to benefit the people.

If you want to say who among the ministers in the DPRK has the real ability to do it, to be honest, there are quite a few!

Although they are not as good as the one in front of them, they are not all capable people.Otherwise, you will not be able to become a high-ranking official.It's just that these people are used to being both right and left on weekdays, and they are afraid of offending others.

And there is no benefit, why are they willing to intervene and cause trouble for themselves?

And the person in front of him is deeply trusted by his father, he came here to hear if he has any good suggestions, and he wanted Gu Chengyu to go to his father to report his actions.

One is to praise his heart for the country and the people, and the other is to make the father pay attention to the rainstorm in the south of the Yangtze River. In short, it kills three birds with one stone!
The prince still has some understanding of Gu Chengyu's temperament, this one is different from those old men in the court.Maybe it's not long after entering the court, but the conscience is still there.

Or maybe it was due to nature, the other party was originally a compassionate temperament.

In short, no matter what, he believed that Gu Chengyu would not sit idly by.

"I don't know what opinion Mr. Gu has?" The prince looked at Gu Chengyu with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, He Jisheng couldn't help but clenched his fingers.The prince's attitude was completely different when he faced these officials and when he faced Gu Chengyu.

Sure enough, Gu Chengyu's ability cannot be underestimated.

Even though he knew that Gu Chengyu was the emperor's spy, the prince still treated Gu Chengyu with courtesy.

Gu Chengyu was wandering in the sky, when he suddenly heard the prince calling him, he quickly regained his composure.

"Returning to Your Highness, I think the two adults are right." Gu Chengyu stood up and replied respectfully.

When the prince heard this, although the expression on his face did not change, his heart sank.

Could it be that he guessed wrong before, that Gu Chengyu didn't intend to intervene in this matter at all?

Sure enough, the officialdom is a big ink shop.As long as people who enter the officialdom, how can they not be blackened?

Not only is it black from head to toe, but even the heart has turned black.

"However, my subordinate believes that even though the embankment is strong, the momentum of the river is so powerful that we have to guard against it!"

Gu Chengyu felt that it was rare for the prince to be considerate of the common people.Regardless of the purpose, the ultimate beneficiaries are the people.

So he didn't hold back anymore, and planned to reveal his point of view a little bit.As for the rest, forget it!After all, the prince can't be the master.

The prince's eyes lit up, he thought that there would be nothing to gain today, but who would have thought that there would be a bright future.

He Jisheng pouted secretly, Gu Chengyu likes to show off wherever he goes.

Are they all stupid and don't understand what the prince means?However, Gu Chengyu likes to show off, trying to show off in front of His Highness the Crown Prince.

snort!Being in the officialdom is not something you are capable of. Sometimes you can just hide your edge properly so that you can sit back and relax.

"This palace is exactly what I mean. Although the embankment has just been reinforced this year, the river is so fast that I don't know if the embankment can last."

The prince sighed, it seemed that Gu Chengyu had the same thoughts as him.

"So, now we must send people to the lower reaches of the Tianya River to reinforce it. We must evacuate the people as soon as possible, so that the lower villages will not be submerged by the overflowing river, endangering the lives of the people. Only by doing this can we minimize the loss of property."

After Gu Chengyu said these two points, he didn't continue, because these two points alone are not the crown prince's decision.

Rather than letting the prince ask the emperor for instructions, it is better for him to speak in person.After all, he had already drawn up the notebook, which was written in more detail.

Besides, there are many people in this study, and they are from different factions, which is really inconvenient.

"Reinforcement?" The prince was a little interested in this matter, and he thought it was a way.

It's better than watching, isn't it?As for the evacuation of the people later, it was obviously a count, because the emperor had mentioned this matter before.

"Master Gu thinks how to strengthen the law? The weather in Jiangnan is now such that it is difficult for people to travel, so how can they work outside? What's more, there are no river workers at all, and it is impossible to recruit people to repair the embankment. "
