    After drinking for three rounds, Chen Tong came out from Guangdeju during the banquet.

    "Come on!"

    "Master Chen!"

    A general came to Chen Tong.

    "Go! Drive away all the disaster victims outside the city, and don't let them appear in the eyes of His Royal Highness." Chen Tong ordered, saying that out of sight, out of mind.

    As long as all the victims are driven away, won't there be no more victims?

    "My lord, if this is the case, what if the crown prince is pursued?"

    Hearing Chen Tong's words, the generals beside him felt that something was wrong. Xiao Yanqi's coming was originally a matter of a disaster, and they drove the victims away. What if Xiao Yanqi found out?

    "What you said makes sense!"

    Chen Tong was silent for a while. If it was done too cleanly, it might not be right.

    "What good solution do you have?"

    "Master Chen, we can keep some obedient victims and let them play a show with us outside the city!"

    "Okay, this is a good idea!"

    Chen Tong nodded in agreement.

    After eating, Xiao Yanqi returned to Chen Tong's residence to rest.

    Three days passed.

    "His Royal Highness, Chen Tong has already built a porridge shop outside the city, would you like to go and have a look!" Lu Bangong came to Xiao Yanqi and said.

    Over the past few days, Lu Bangong has gradually discovered it.

    Xiao Yanqi is not a disaster management material at all, Chen Tong has changed his ways to please Xiao Yanqi in the past few days, Xiao Yanqi has seen Chen Tong's things there, and he is so fascinated that he can't stop.

    "Go and see!"

    Xiao Yanqi came out of the city. At the gate of the city, Chen Tong had ordered to monitor and set up five porridge sheds, and there were still many victims of the disaster coming to beg for porridge.

    "His Royal Highness, you are here, do you think this is okay?"

    Chen Tong asked with a smile.

    "Not bad, not bad, everything is in order, and the victims are full. Chen Tong, you put your heart into it!"

    Xiao Yanqi observed the situation of the porridge shed, and when everyone saw Xiao Yanqi coming, they immediately knelt down on the ground and shouted long live the prince, which made Xiao Yanqi laugh from ear to ear.

    "How is the progress of the repair of the river embankment in your Ministry of Industry, Mr. Luban?"

    Xiao Yanqi asked.

    This porridge place has been set up, and the people are full, so it is time to talk about the river embankment.

    "His Royal Highness, I have already sent people to investigate. I believe there will be a conclusion tomorrow, and we will be able to repair the river embankment in a targeted manner. You don't need to worry!"

    Lu Bangong explained.

    "Prince, you can stay here with peace of mind. Lord Lu is here for everything, so you don't have to worry about it!" Chen Tong echoed from the side.

    Lu Bangong is the minister of the Ministry of Industry of the imperial court, and Chen Tong naturally wants to please him.

    "If that's the case, I'm relieved!"

    Xiao Yanqi nodded in satisfaction. He thought it was a difficult task, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.

    afternoon.

    The people from the Ministry of Industry came back from Changhe.

    "How is the situation of the investigation, my lords? Is there any way to solve this embankment breach?" Xiao Yanqi asked everyone to sit down and talk in detail.

    The river embankment burst is no small matter.

    After listening to Xiao Yanqi's questioning, everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke first, as if they were waiting for the other party's words.

    "My lords, you can speak freely. You can talk about what happened today. Even if you say something wrong, I won't blame you!"

    Seeing that everyone took Xiao Yanqi into consideration, he immediately asked everyone to share their thoughts.

    Brainstorming is the best way to do it.

    "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said so, I am not willing to throw bricks to attract jade!"

    One person stood up.

    "Please say!"

    "Your Highness, I feel that we are going to dig a channel at the breach of the embankment, divert the river water into the channel, and take advantage of the trend" This person also expressed his thoughts eloquently.

    "I don't know what your Highness thinks of my method?"

    In the end, the voice fell, and he asked Xiao Yanqi what he could do.

    "This method is indeed good. Flood control is a matter of following the trend. What your lord said is so common sense!" Xiao Yanqi nodded, opened a new river channel, and brought in water. It's a good way.

    the"Your Highness, I think this method is impossible!"

    Someone stood up.

    "What's the meaning?"

    "It's good to open a canal and dig a new river channel, but not to mention the manpower and material resources it consumes, it will take a year and a half. The project is too big to solve the current situation. The method of opening a canal can only be used.  In the long run!"

    vetoed the proposal just now.

    What this person said also made sense.

    Digging a new river channel is not just a simple matter, it requires exploration, manpower and material resources, and it will take a long time to solve it.

    "The time does not meet the imperial government's disaster relief standards!"

    "Then what can you do?"

    "His Royal Highness, I think we still need to increase the height of the dam and plug the gap. As long as we persist until the end of the flood season, the river will naturally drop!"

    The person who vetoed the solution just now expressed his thoughts.

    "No, this method is very bad. Raise the height of the dam, what should we do if the river does not recede?"

    Another person said.

    Everyone argued with each other, and their respective solutions were rejected as soon as they were spoken out.

    "His Royal Highness urgent report!"

    Everyone discussed how to repair the embankment, and one person rushed in from the outside.

    After hearing the urgent report, everyone immediately stopped talking.

    After taking the letter, Xiao Yanqi smiled.

    "Okay, okay, God is really helping me!" Xiao Yanqi handed the letter in his hand to Lu Bangong next to him, "Master Lu, take a look!"

    Lu Bangong took the letter, opened it, and immediately smiled.

    "It's really God bless the prince, the prince is blessed in the sky! The Changhe River is at low tide!"

    Lu Bangong told everyone about it.

    "Low tide?"

    "real or fake?"

    Everyone showed joyful expressions. The ebb tide is a great thing. If the tide ebbs, they have to think of a plan, and they only need to plug the exposed gap.

    "The crown prince is the real dragon son of heaven. When the dragon comes, how can the water not recede!"

    Chen Tong said with a smile.

    As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yanqi showed a gratified smile.

    "Long live the prince!"

    "Long live the prince!"

    "My lords, please hurry up. Since the tide has ebbed, the Ministry of Industry can send someone to plug up the breach of the embankment for me, and let me report it to the court!"

    Xiao Yanqi said.

    "Prince, don't worry, we will do our best in this matter!"

    Lu Bangong vowed that if the tide had not ebbed, he might have found it difficult, but when the tide ebbed, all problems would be solved.

    Two days later, the Ministry of Industry ordered workers to repair the embankment.

    "Are you saying it's really okay to do this?"

    "Who knows! Since it is an order issued by the Ministry of Industry, we will obey it!"

    "I'm afraid it's hanging!"

    "What's the meaning?"

    "The ebb tide does not mean the real ebb tide, it may indicate that there will be a bigger flood season coming!",

    The craftsmen talked to each other while they were busy.

    "This is not what we thought!"

    Someone said helplessly.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
