Zhang Hui was buried, and a small grave was built in this small courtyard. Just as my father said, Tai Ni did not cry.
But Lao Zhang ordered Tai Ti to find the young man who was controlling the water immediately. Tai Ti still went against his father's wishes at this point. He had to bury his father before he could leave.
In this era, even great people have no coffins to bury them when they die. Just like when Yu Zai asked the old patriarch, what rituals should be done when people die?
The old patriarch's answer at the time was no. If he died in the wilderness, the body would be eaten by animals and there would be no way to bury him. Even if he brought it back, it would just cover the body with dead leaves and rotten grass. The conditions would be better.
You can use straw mats.
Only those who have shined for an era can be buried in mountains or hills after their death. For example, in the past, Emperor Ku, Emperor Zhi, and Shaohao were buried in a certain sun-facing tower after their death.
There are nine hills in ancient times, which are the places where nine emperors died. In the Classic of Mountains and Seas, one of the nine hills, Taotang Hill, has not yet ushered in its death.
Owner.
Because Emperor Fangxun was still alive, it was not yet time for him to be called "Emperor Yao" by the world.
There was no time to feel sad or to tell others that Tai Ti was gone. He had more important things to do.
“Father, I’m leaving.”
That was the last call. Tai Ti left the small house, and everything became quiet. There was no longer any scolding or cursing from his old father. However, after leaving the house, Tai Ti started coughing violently.
.
Coughing, tears came down.
“I’m not crying, I just coughed too badly.”
The bullock cart was not moving fast, and Peng Zu was not in a hurry now. There was no point in getting angry. He seriously reflected on the curse Zhang Hui had given them before he died. Peng Zu did feel ashamed in his heart, but he was still looking for reasons for himself.
"Yes, Zhang Hui asked us Qi Refiners to help the Emperor and Regent make the right decision, because we live a long time, so I invite you to come and inspect the man who controls the water. I didn't say no.
Let him work as an official, why would your father scold me like this?"
Peng Zu was still talking to Tai Ni on the bullock cart, and Lao Tai Ni said: "Who among them was involved in this matter?"
Peng Zu thought for a while and then said: "Jeque Shanjuan, Jieque has the same opinion as us, Shanjuan is on the side of the regent and agrees to let that person hold such an important position."
Tai Ti sighed: "Didn't even Xu You express his position?"
Peng Zu said quickly: "Xu You has gone to attack Yaozhu."
Tai Ni said: "Then, there is also Father Chao. He is a hermit and has not shown up. Okay! Then there are still quilts. Wang Ni and Fang Hui, the reputation of the three of them is higher than that of you and Shan Juan.
Jie Que is just tied with them! At that time, the emperor thought about giving up the world to Jie Que. Now it seems that Xu You's evaluation of Jie Que and his persuasion to the emperor at that time were not wrong!"
At that time, Emperor Fangxun once thought about naming Jie Que as a candidate for the next emperor, but he was stopped by his apprentice Xu You. Xu You told Di Fangxun that Jie Que was a sage in the world when he practiced alone, but if
If you put him in the position of being the leader of the world, he will make a lot of things messy.
Taiyi said: "You people, Qi practitioners are not greedy for power in the world. Da Peng, if you are involved in this matter now, Fang Hui and the others will definitely be unhappy. You should have assisted the emperor."
Well, if the new emperor is not wise, you should leave him; if the new emperor is very wise, you should continue to follow him."
Peng Zu hesitated to speak. Of course, Tai Ni knew that Peng Zu must be trying to find an excuse for himself. Peng Zu didn't even open his mouth. Tai Ni knew what kind of fart he was about to fart, and it must be garlic.
Talk sounds like farting.
At this time, garlic was only grown on a large scale further west in the Western Wasteland, near the Kingdom of the West, and it was a rare commodity.
But no matter how rare it is, what comes out after eating it will still smell bad.
The mouth smells as bad as fart.
Tai Ni thought, Peng Zu would definitely refute himself like this: I think you are right, but I did not do anything wrong, because I think the emperor and the regent were unwise in this matter.
But Peng Zu didn't speak, he just said strangely: "I have a feeling that you should know what I am going to say."
"yes."
“Then I won’t say anything.”
The oxcart drove like this for a while. The southern Shanxi area is basically one of the gathering points of the Tao Tang clan and the large tribes in the entire Central Plains Alliance. There are many tribes here, and the leaders of those tribes are all people of the Central Plains. There are also some
Those who are qualified to participate in the alliance meeting, although their role is only to vote by a show of hands.
When they saw Peng Zu, they all respected him. Another person on the bullock cart, some old tribal leaders, saw Tai Ni and hurriedly caught up with them. That was when they were young, and they had seen Tai Ni who helped them control floods, and
The young tribal leaders looked confused.
Those young tribal leaders asked the old leaders, since this old man named Tai Ti was a flood control hero in the past era, why didn't many people praise him?
The old leaders were very angry. How could no one praise him? Tribes around the Fen River have worshiped this ancient hero for three generations. But those of you who don’t live near the Fen River have forgotten it.
It’s just his story!
Tai Ti spoke to the old leaders. Those old leaders were all about seventy or eighty years old. There had been no major wars in the past fifty years, and they happened to be the group of people who had thrived after the flood was controlled.
, are people who have experienced from the difficult era to the current peaceful era.
"If the world doesn't remember me, that's a good thing. If people from generation to generation remember me and respect my descendants, that's a terrible thing. How can people without skills not rely on the glory of their ancestors?"
I want to make progress."
“When I was young, my father said that I was a stupid bad horse, so he gave me the name Ni”
“The world doesn’t need the heroes of the past, it only needs the heroes of the future. Things in the hands of old people are like sand in a river, they have been washed away long ago.”
He said goodbye to the old leaders, and the oxcart set off on the road again, leaving from the mountains and fields beyond Taotang. Now, along the way, old men came to deliver some food, and among them were strange steamed buns.
Tai Ni learned about this thing, which was invented by the water conservator. The emperor was shocked by it, and Hou Ji even went to see him in person. This soft thing was transformed from wheat that was born with awns.
"This is a good thing. With this, even wheat can become a food that everyone likes. If you eat this food, your throat will not be cut by the coarse wheat, and people will be full and have strength.
Only then can we work better.”
Tai Ti repeatedly looked at the steamed buns in his hand, thinking in his heart, how on earth was this made? Maybe Tai Xi should be more interested in this thing, but when he thought of the compliments his father said before his death, the old Tai Ti started to think again.
About to laugh.
Without you, you can’t plant the broken ground of Taixi.
Time has come to the beginning of autumn, Dou points to the southwest, and the beginning of autumn means that autumn is coming, the grass and trees have begun to bear children, and the harvest time is gradually approaching.
Unknowingly, another half a year has passed.
Yu Zai received a notice of a project, and Wen Ming came back riding the horse that Marquis Tuan dedicated to the emperor. Queen Mother Xi had already learned the progress of digging mountains, making ditches, and various construction methods according to the terrain.
At least 20 percent is done.
It’s done, twenty is enough, one more point is a waste, and it’s not professional anyway.
Take care of it yourself first, then wait for professionals to do it later.
Actually, this is also a method. In the past, many people did this. Do a little bit first, and leave the uncertainty later to more powerful people in the future. Anyway, as long as nothing happens to you in this life, it will be fine.
Marquis Xuan had a good time with his little red horse. The horse had not seen its original owner for a long time. Of course it was very happy after seeing Marquis Xuan. Wen Ming told Yu Zai that the number one in Diazhu Mountain was
If a waterway is to be dredged, it will be a "human gate" for future generations.
So the emperor asked me to go back and take a look at the construction situation to make sure there were no problems.
“If something goes wrong, Brother Zai”
Wen Ming muttered to Yu Zai, saying that we had hung the wives and children of the stubborn villagers in the trees because of the surveyor incident. Now they hate us. If something happens to you this time,
I'm afraid, in order to appease the people's anger, the Emperor will hang you on a tree too.
“What are you doing! I don’t have a wife! Who are you hanging on? Hang me!”
Yu Zai was very angry. He was hanging on the wives of the surveyors and villagers, not on them. Why should he hang on himself instead of his own wife? You can't hang on yourself just because you don't have a wife. When will a man stand up?
?
Well, although this method was thought up to control the local villagers who like to cause trouble, Yuzai himself admitted that the method was indeed a little violent, but it did not cause any physical harm to them, and it was also for the sake of smoothness.
Construction!
“Want me to be hung from a tree unless the sun explodes.”
Yu Zai and Wen Ming left for a quick and easy assessment. They rode horses all the way from the Luobei area to the Diazhu Mountain area. The journey back and forth was at least a thousand miles, but the little red horse owned by Marquis Xuan was exactly the same.
A thousand-mile horse, driven by four hooves, consumes two kilograms of fodder per 100 kilometers.
And Yuzai also saw what a true thousand-mile horse is.
Many times in ancient times, when a good horse was found, it was called a thousand-mile horse. Of course, thousand-mile horses were not that common. Although they said that thousand-mile horses often existed, in fact, there were very few horses in history that could actually run a thousand miles a day.
countable.
During the Zhou Dynasty, King Mu of Zhou had a thousand-mile horse. This was a real thousand-mile horse. At that time, King Xu Yan was making trouble in the Xuzhou area. The army of the Zhou Dynasty had just been transferred there. King Xu Yan was still talking trash. Unexpectedly, one day later, Zhou Dynasty
King Mu rode the thousand-mile horse and galloped in front of him!
It really came according to the IP address!
It will be at your doorstep soon!
Emperor Mu's horse riding skills are still very good. After all, he can lead a group of troops to fight from the east to the west, travel everywhere and beat people. His physical fitness is still very good. King Mu of Zhou, who is at least in his fifties, may not have good health.
His quality is better than that of King Xu Yan.
Moreover, the historical records record this incident and do not say whether the horse was pulling the chariot. If so, it would obviously be more powerful.
Of course, the other horse is the Red Rabbit Horse, which is better known.
Ruan Zai was stunned and speechless. To be fair, Ruan Zai was someone who did not fall off the chariot when racing in Hongzhou. After all, he was considered a C photo. However, this time he sat on this thousand-mile horse.
I almost fainted.
This horse is really too fast and too bumpy. Yuzai never thought that he would feel motion sickness while riding a horse!
From the early morning when she gulped down a meal and then left, now Ruanzai has vomited out everything she ate, and the stars in the sky are shining, which is the mocking gaze of her ancestors.
The horse was kicking and kicking, and the little red horse was tired. It had run at least nearly six hundred miles for most of the day. As a descendant of Pegasus, this small distance could only make the little red horse gasp for breath.
Only two miles.
Wen Ming is also a little confused, but some people of the Chong clan have also ridden horses. Unlike the C photo like Zhuan Zai, Wen Ming is at least a B photo. Of course, riding a horse and driving a chariot are different.
As an uncomfortable night passed, and still suffering from motion sickness the next day, Yuzai finally came to the emperor half-dead.
At this time, Peng Zu and the others had arrived here.
Taizi looked at this half-dead young man who had just arrived here after a long journey, and looked at it carefully, but his cloudy old eyes could no longer see clearly. He was taking a short break, drank some water, and was trying to calm down.
After arriving, we started to go to the "Renmen" construction area in Diazhu Mountain with everyone.
Peng Zu was about to step forward to speak, but was stopped by Taizi. The two old men had no presence among the crowd. At this time, the surrounding ministers also came over, and they all looked at Yu Zai in a strange way.
“I feel like a lot of people here don’t like me.”
Ruanzai looked at Wen Ming. At this time, everyone came to the "Renmen" construction area in Dianzhu Mountain. There was still a long way ahead, which could be successfully opened. After it was opened, the earth and stone embankments originally used to block part of the water flow would be
It was pulled apart, guiding a large amount of water to this gentler area, thereby forming a new water area.
Renmen is the only channel through which boats can pass. The other construction area at Guimen was only dug for flood discharge.
Someone came up and asked Ruan Zai to talk about the concept of dredging and what should be done after dredging. Because Ruan Zai said at the beginning that opening three gates was only the first step in dredging, those ministers all looked in the direction of the platform.
I hope you will be embarrassed.
Yu Zai finally noticed this old man, but he didn't recognize him. He just thought he was some big shot, so he didn't pay much attention to it. He had already chatted and laughed with the emperor, so which big shot should he be afraid of?
Yuzai found a high place near the channel, stood up on a mound, and picked up a branch.
