Chapter 120 The three monks have no water to eat
The court took the love and revived Pan Jixun at this time, so naturally it would not be something else. It must be because the Yellow River broke the dam and the water transportation was cut off, so he was asked to control the water.
But if he was asked to cure the water and the canal was restored, how could Mr. Zhao sing the play?
Zheng Ruozeng couldn't help but whisper: "It is against human ethics, and Zhongcheng can refuse."
"Doesn't care about the displacement of hundreds of millions of people, you won't go against human ethics?" Pan Jixun raised his head and drank a glass of wine and said, "What's more, I've been in a state of obedience since the winter of the 45th year of Jiajing in the 45th year of Jiajing to the end of this month."
"But, Zhongcheng is also from Jiangnan." Wu Chengen also advised: "Not to say elsewhere. Just talk about the people of Huzhou, the annual cost of expenditure and freight is four or five times that of the regular tax. The entire Jiangnan people are deeply affected by the grain transportation. Zhongcheng only saw the suffering of millions of Jianghuai people, but not the suffering of twenty millions of Jiangnan people for a long time?"
Pan Jixun fell into silence and then laughed at himself.
After a long time, he looked up at Zhao Hao.
"Boy, what do you think?"
Mr. Zhao leaned on the couch lazily, and smiled indifferently: "Zhongcheng does whatever he wants, I won't put pressure on you."
"To be honest?" Pan Jixun looked at him with a narrow eyes.
"More than real gold." Zhao Hao sat upright with his knees on his knees and nodded. He laughed and said, "Zhongcheng once said that everyone must do their duties, and you will do your duties according to your duties."
"Okay!" Pan Jixun nodded with relief, looked at Zhao Hao deeply, and suddenly said quietly: "You don't have to worry too much, the canal will be broken for several years."
After saying that, he bowed to everyone and turned around and walked out.
"Why don't you set off together tomorrow?" Mr. Zhao said behind him.
"No, I will be laughed at when I enter Beijing like this." Pan Jixun said lightly without looking back: "I'll walk the canal."
Obviously, he was going to Huanghuai for on-site inspection.
"Chief Zhongcheng." Mr. Zhao remembered something, so he jumped off the bed, picked up a delicate food box and chased after him.
"Take the new goods slowly on the way, remember to comment me."
"This is almost the same." Pan Jixun finally had a smile on his face and put away the food box as a treasure.
"Chief of the Central Committee should pay attention to safety." Mr. Zhao reminded.
"Talking." Pan Jixun waved his hand and walked away without looking back.

When Zhao Hao returned, Zheng Ruozeng sighed and said, "Young Master, this is not the time for you to show your demeanor..."
"Mr. Kaiyang, don't worry, I have my own concerns." Zhao Hao nodded, sat back on the Arhat's bed, and said with a smile: "It's not that easy to manage the river."
"Hahaha." Xu Wencheng also burst out laughing and pointed at Zheng Ruozeng with chopsticks and said, "You old Zheng just can't change this problem of worrying about it. This kid is more furry than a monkey. Do you think he is a good person? He knows that Lao Pan's journey is too difficult and his ambitions are hard to fulfill. He is just selling favors to Lao Pan."
"Oh." Zheng Ruo once heard this and asked, "Why do you say this?"
Wu Chengen also looked at Zhao Hao inquiry.
"At first, the Yellow River, Huai River and Canal have been mixed together. The imperial court has served as water management officials. They only know how to ensure the water transportation and do not care about the situation of the Yellow River and Huai River. Now the dam can be broken in the spring flood, which shows how fragile the waters of the Jianghuai River have been. Even if they follow Pan Zhongcheng's instructions to repair the river, the cement civilians will be able to manage it, and they will not be able to succeed in three or five years."
"Secondly, at the end of last year, Leibutang resigned as a ill person. Zhubutang returned the important task of the Grand Seokong in Beijing to supervise the Hecao." Zhao Hao picked up the teacup and gently glanced off Fumo with the lid of the cup and said, "Mr. Kaiyang must have heard of those stories about Zhubutang and Pan Zhongcheng."
"Oh, why did I forget this?" Zheng Ruozeng slapped his forehead and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Then Pan Zhongcheng really needs to bring more betel nut shunqi pills during this trip."
Pan Jixun was the first Prime Minister of the River in the 44th year of Jiajing. At that time, the court might have thought that he was a little tender and ordered him to assist the Minister of Works Zhu Heng in the ruling of Huang.
Both of them are rare good officials who are honest and honest and brave to serve, but they are both too strong and upright and stubborn, and a fierce conflict soon broke out.
Pan Jixun wanted to restore the old path of the Yellow River and make it happen once and for all.
Zhu Heng believed that instead of spending millions of silver to drive hundreds of thousands of soldiers to dredge rivers and dig dredge in the huge waves and restore the old path, it is better to build embankments on the south bank of the Yellow River to prevent the Yellow River from rushing south again. At the same time, on the north bank of the Yellow River, hundreds of miles north of Pei County were left to form a natural flood retention area to ensure smooth water transportation.
Zhu Heng was an old senior, with higher official rank and prestige than Pan Jixun, so he finally adopted his plan. Although he had saved the canal transportation back then, Pan Jixun was heartbroken and sued the memorial to directly denounce the "diversion of the south bank and building a dike on the north bank". It was just a matter of Chen and Chen's perfunctory approach.
Although the water transportation can be temporarily guaranteed, it can only make the river channel of the Huanghuai River more fragile, repaired every year and decided every year until it is hopeless. The costs and losses caused will surely be several times more than the restoration of the old way!
At that time, Zhu Heng was enjoying praise from the court, but suddenly his deputy was so back-stolen that he could not come to Taiwan. So he hated Pan Jixun deeply and immediately instructed people to impeach him and was very happy to be praised. He was arbitrarily punishing civilians and men when he was in charge of the river.
Fortunately, or unfortunately, Pan's mother suddenly passed away, and Pan Ji returned to his hometown, so he escaped this incident.
~~
Now that Zhu Heng has just returned to the Ministry of Works, Old Pan has been revived and returned to Beijing, it’s really a joke that enemies are not gathering.
"Do you think they're done with just being bull-beat?" Fatty Xu leaned on the back of the chair, put his feet on the armrest of his wife's chair, and adjusted his comfortable position:
"There is also the current governor of the river, Weng Dali. He also disagrees with Zhu Zhenshan and keeps yelling to open the river. When these three water gods gather together, they will be done with just spraying. What else do you do?"
"Whose fucking arrangement is this?" Wu Chengen said with a burst of laughter and crying: "It is extremely complicated to manage rivers, Huai and Cao and Cao together, and it is even more impossible to do if the political prosper comes."
"Who else can you do, Li Chunfang." Xu Wei looked down on the current chief minister of the cabinet. He used to be a guest minister in the other party's mansion, but ended up in a bad mood.
"This soft boy dared not take any responsibility. He thought that he could cure the river by putting together the experts who managed the river together? He didn't even understand the reason why the three monks didn't have water to eat!"
"At least, he has no responsibility himself." Mr. Zhao has mastered a lot of useless official knowledge under the careful guidance of his grandfather in the past few months.
"That's right, I have sent all the talented people up. What else do you want me?" Zheng Ruozeng sneered, completely relieved, and returned to his important business.
"Young Master, I want to set off with you tomorrow."
"Oh?" Zhao Hao felt a little embarrassed: "It's enough to have two young men walking with him. The sea was bumpy, and Mr. Kaiyang was in poor health."
He remembered that Zheng Ruozeng seemed to have not lived for a few years, so how could he dare to take this risk?
"Oh, young master, don't worry, it's just a ten-day voyage. Dean Wan has been conditioning me for half a year, and I've been exhausted and my body is much stronger than in previous years." Zheng Ruozeng said hurriedly: "There are many things that are not recorded in "Marine Transportation Pictures". I have to accompany you in person and tell you what I know."
Zheng Ruozeng's old eyes shot out a firm light, and he slowly said: "I can't come out of the sea again in this life, I will die with my eyes open."
Zhao Hao could not resist Zheng Ruozeng, so he had to agree.
