Su Han immediately explained: "That's it. Mr. Puyang should also know that we are in the south of the Yangtze River, and starting from April here is the flood season. Every year, many tragedies happen during this flood season. Floods are ruthless.
It is really sad to see those innocent people being swept away from their homes and devoured their loved ones by this natural disaster."
Xiao Muting also continued: "In the past, I fought abroad and guarded the borders, but I have also heard about the tragic situation of the floods, so I will definitely mobilize some materials in use to support disaster relief in various places. Now, I have become this county.
The vassal king of the city does not want to see the people in the vassal land suffer from this flood again. Moreover, the king’s situation must be known to the young master. I am not afraid of your ridicule. If the same flood disaster as in previous years happens again in our vassal land, what can I expect?
It may be even more difficult for the imperial court to provide relief supplies, so we can't just watch these people become displaced."
Su Han said to the thoughtful Puyang Hongjun: "I was very happy yesterday when I saw that my third uncle was so proficient in water conservancy matters. If the elders in the clan allow me, can I use my third uncle's help to give full play to his own advantages?"
, Solving the flood problem in our county can be regarded as a blessing to the people. If the third uncle wants to have a name, there is nothing wrong. Anyway, the officials in the city are making adjustments, and His Highness also appoints officials on his own.
It’s okay to give your third uncle a high official position for your rights.”
Puyang Hongjun laughed out loud at her words and shook his head slightly: "It's not that I don't agree, but that this third uncle has concerns. I think you two also know that Puyang Yu's end was not good back then, and it cost a lot.
The water conservancy project that they spent most of their lives managing was completely destroyed in just fifty years. Since the catastrophe of Puyang Yu’s ancestors, people in their branch have not allowed their disciples to serve as court officials anymore.
So, it’s not that I don’t want to help, but I can’t do this, so I still have to listen to my third uncle’s thoughts.”
Xiao Muting nodded in understanding: "I understand, in this case, I really can't force it, but the flood season is coming, and I really want to see those people suffer. If I can't do it, why not just
All residents in areas affected by disasters in previous years should be relocated and return to their homes after the flood season."
Su Han held his hand and asked worriedly: "When we return to our home, it will no longer be the original one. Everything that needs to be washed away has been washed away. Should we let them build it again? When it is built, the next flood season will come again, can we still build it again?"
Let them evacuate?"
Xiao Muting looked at her helplessly and said: "There is no other way. The people we can use now are not good at treating floods. As long as there are people around, there is hope. Let's find a way later.
"
Su Han could only nodded lightly in agreement with his statement, and patted the back of Xiao Muting's hand to comfort him: "Yes, there will definitely be a way..."
Her expression was very forbearing, trying to hide her sadness for fear of letting Xiao Muting see it.
But the appearance of the two of them, in Puyang Hongjun's eyes, was not the case. He was still very convinced of Chen Wang Xiao Muting's character. In less than half a month since he arrived in Cangque County as the vassal king, various places in this county
There have been obvious changes, and they are good changes. When he heard his thoughts about the safety of the people in the county and city, he was even more impressed.
Seeing that the two of them were in such a dilemma, he stood up and walked away, called his third uncle who was still directing the construction of the waterway, and discussed with him in a low voice.
After Su Han and Xiao Muting glanced at each other, they both looked away. The two of them held their hands tightly together and looked at each other, with a smile of success on their lips.
After a while, Puyang Hongjun came over with his third uncle and hugged the two of them. They also stood up and saluted in return.
Then Puyang Hongjun pointed to his third uncle beside him and said: "Your Highness King Chen, this is my third uncle, Puyang Ruiyan, whose ancestor was Puyang Yu, the great minister of the Water Department of the former dynasty. I have explained this to my third uncle.
Looking at the current difficulties in Cangque County, Third Uncle agreed to go out to help His Highness King Chen control the flood in the name of Ruiyan, hoping that the people in the county and city can be spared the suffering of this flood, and all people in the world can live and work in peace and contentment."
Xiao Muting cupped his fists and bowed deeply to the two of them, and said solemnly: "Xiao Muting would like to thank Mr. Ruiyan for his great love. He also thanks Mr. Ruiyan for the people in Cangque County who have suffered from floods."
Puyang Ruiyan immediately stepped forward and stretched out his hand to support Xiao Muting, who was about to salute, and said with some excitement: "His Royal Highness, King Chen, has really embarrassed the common people. It is a blessing to be able to do what he can for the people of the world. There is no need for His Highness to do this.
It’s a blessing for the common people, and I’d like to thank His Highness for your trust.”
Su Han smiled at this time and said: "Third Uncle, I wonder if you still have the drawings of Puyang Yu's ancestors to control the floods in the south of the Yangtze River. If they are available, as long as they are reconstructed, they will definitely solve the urgent need. After the flood season is over, they will be reinforced and repaired.
We can ensure that there are no floods in the city."
Puyang Ruiyan had met her yesterday and knew that she was a sensible person, so he treated her very well.
He smiled and nodded: "Of course there is. Our ancestors were disheartened because of the disaster, but he attached great importance to the water conservancy plan he built. We, the younger generations, also regard it as a treasure and enshrine it. I think it must be
It can be used.”
Xiao Muting expressed his position at this time: "Don't worry, Mr. Ruiyan, no matter how the current city is different from the past, as long as it hinders the waterway, it can be pulled down and will make way for the waterway unconditionally."
Puyang Ruiyan cupped his fists and said to him: "With His Highness's words, the common people will feel at ease and they will do their best to control the floods in the county and city."
Puyang Hongjun also looked at Puyang Ruiyan with a pleased smile: "Third uncle, it's better this time. You have a place to show your talents. You can go down with Prince Chen with peace of mind."
"Thank you, patriarch!" Puyang Ruiyan also gave him a fist.
But as soon as these words came out, Xiao Muting and Su Han were both stunned on the spot, staring at Puyang Hongjun.
He couldn't help but chuckle: "Third uncle! This time you have exposed my identity."
After Puyang Ruiyan looked between the three of them, he immediately said: "Uncle San, I didn't do it on purpose. Let's talk about it. I still have to direct those idiots to build the water channel. Don't repair it crookedly for me."
After saying that, he turned around and ran away, and his happy laughter was heard.
Su Han pointed at Puyang Hongjun: "You, you are hiding too deeply. Is this necessary? You are too thoughtful!"
Xiao Muting immediately pulled her hand down, held it tightly in the palm of his hand, and said to Puyang Hongjun: "I don't understand the rules of this world, so I am rude. Please don't take offense, but please let me."
The king was a little surprised, he did not expect that the leader of the Puyang clan is such a young man, which shows that he is really young and promising."
Puyang Hongjun shook his head helplessly, then pointed to the tables. After the three of them sat back, he said: "I came out of the mountain earlier just to remind everyone not to break into the mountain gate without permission. Later, I met you."
After we chatted, I was afraid that you would have worries and suspicions because of my identity, and after we got along with each other, I was even more afraid to explain, for fear that you would become different. Let's see, isn't that the case now."
"Your identity is quite good. It's not that you're shameful, and there's no need to hide it. But fortunately you have such an enlightened clan leader in your clan. That's why you convinced them so much. Look at your third uncle, he's particularly listening.
Yours." Su Han smiled and nodded at him.
Puyang Hongjun smiled and said: "Thank you very much, Princess for the compliment!"
