"You traitor! Don't you know that I shouldn't just focus on getting angry and ignore how to deal with the disaster as soon as possible!"
Zhu Di was furious when he heard this: "Isn't there nothing he can do about this!"
Zhu Gaojie was greatly shocked and couldn't deal with the flood as soon as possible. So what can you do if you spit on your sons here?
The spittle of your old man is like a heavy rain. After you spray and curse Shandong, it will stop raining?
"Prince Han!" Zhu Di suddenly looked at the King of Han with a strange look, "The Chief Envoy of Shandong must be a member of your Han King's party. There was a flood in Shandong, and the Chief Envoy didn't even dare to fart. He allowed the situation to get worse, you Han. Your Majesty is so capable!"
King of Han: ...Okay, after scolding King Qi, it’s my turn again.
In the imperial study room, Zhu Di scolded his three sons. Fortunately, King Zhao was in Shuntian Mansion. If he were in Jinling City now, he would inevitably be scolded.
The three of them remained silent. If anyone dared to reply now, hey, he would probably be beaten to death by the irrational old man.
"say!"
The old man put his hands on his hips and scolded angrily with an evil look on his face, "You all gave me an idea, why did you leave this matter to me!"
Still none of the three spoke.
Just when the old man was about to get angry again, Zhu Gaojie suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, have you ever heard of... beaming water to wash away the sand?"
Zhu Di was stunned: "What... send water to wash away the sand? What do you mean?"
The prince and the king of Han also set their sights on Zhu Gaojie.
"Looking at the floods in Shandong, with the Yellow River as the center, some areas were severely flooded, while some areas were safe and sound. This is not a good thing, because those areas that were safe and sound were blocked by sand and mud in the Yellow River, leaving other areas to shoulder the burden for them. , This will only make the disaster-stricken areas more dangerous."
Zhu Gaojie said righteously, "It can be seen that the water from Haikou to the Yellow River last year was blocked, and sand accumulated on the ground. The river in the Xupi area became shallower, and it was no longer what it used to be. When the water overflowed, it overflowed the embankment. So it was restored. There is the decision of Suining. Even if only the old road is restored up and down Pizhou, can the Xu and Lu rivers be cleared of siltation? For the current plan, we should search for the two cliffs and embankments from Xu to Pi, and from Pi to Huai. They are as high and thick as the law. Beyond the two cliffs, remote embankments are still built to prevent unexpected events. The common water flows through the ground, and the siltation goes with it. Over the past few years, the depth and width have remained the same as before, and changes in erosion have been avoided. It can be seen that the Yellow River is heavily silted up. Because the embankment is thin, the water breaks through it, so the downstream flow is blocked and the river body suddenly rises. To the south of the second flood, the embankment is very thin. I am afraid that the water will break out in a few months and the water will break out from the side, causing the shallow silt in the white ocean. It will be connected, and the disaster to the south of the second flood will follow."
Finally, Zhu Gaojie said meaningfully: "It is better to use people to control the river than to use the river to control the river. The river is impatient. If you use its nature to harness its strength, it can be shallow or deep, and it can be controlled by the emperor's palm."
After listening to Zhu Gaojie's words, Zhu Di was shocked. Is there such an operation?
The prince was thoughtful. He was thinking about whether the method Zhu Gaojie said was just talk on paper or whether it could really be realized. If it can be realized, then Zhu Gaojie will really be an eternal hero.
After thinking about it in his mind, he was surprised to find that the probability of success was extremely high, and he couldn't help but glance at Zhu Gaojie.
King Qi is hidden deeper than he thought.
Only King Han looked confused: What? What did the fourth child say?
The fact that the King of Han is uneducated... doesn't last for a day or two, just get used to it.
Zhu Di thought for a while and suddenly said: "What you said is very good, but what if we can't achieve it after waiting for the water to flush the sand and use it? Wouldn't that be a waste of time? Can you shoulder this responsibility?"
Zhu Gaojie screamed in his heart: Damn it, I'm helping you think about how to solve the problem, how are you thinking about making me take the blame? !
"We can first build a river embankment from Dongchang Prefecture, which is a serious flood-affected area, to Jinan Prefecture, and test the effect. If it succeeds, it will solve the current urgent need for floods, and it will show that water confinement and sand flushing are really effective. , which can be followed in other disaster-stricken areas." Zhu Gaojie said calmly, "If it fails, the loss will not be too great, and it will not take too long."
Zhu Di was thoughtful, and he was shocked to find that he had no excuse to refute.
How can it be repaired? This traitor didn't even give me a chance to refute!
At this time, the prince stood up, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the fourth brother's method is very wonderful, and it is a good idea for heaven and man. I suggest it be implemented in time. After all, the longer the time goes on, the greater the loss to the court will be. If the fourth brother does this The law has really brought the floods in Shandong under control, and that is a great thing that benefits all living beings in the world!"
"My son seconded the proposal!" Although the King of Han did not understand, King Qi had said so much. Judging from the expressions of the emperor and the prince, this must be a good idea, so he quickly seconded the proposal.
Although the relationship between him and King Qi is not very good, they are on the same front at this time.
"Brothers, wait a minute, I still have something to say." Zhu Gaojie said.
The prince glanced at Zhu Gaojie doubtfully, thinking that this boy was not trying to take credit.
It is not a wise thing to ask for credit at this time. Although you have spoken out a good plan to deal with the disaster, the old man has always been unclear about rewards and punishments. If you reason with him, he will kill you with a knife. If you ask for credit now, aren't you looking for scolding? .
"Is there anything else you haven't finished saying?" Zhu Di looked unkind.
He also thought that Zhu Gaojie was asking for credit now.
If Zhu Gaojie didn't take credit, Zhu Di would naturally not forget to reward him generously.
Although Zhu Di was very satisfied with the good strategy Zhu Gaojie said, what he hated most was people who took credit and were arrogant.
"Although it is a good strategy to divert water and flush sand, it is an urgent matter and it is difficult to solve the urgent problem quickly." Zhu Gaojie said seriously, "Judging from the history of the Yellow River diversion, the Yellow River is just using other river channels on the Huang-Huai-Hai Plain. There can be plans To divert the Yellow River from the Daqing River, Hutuo River, Ziya River, Wei River, Tuhai River, Jishui, Xiaoqing River, Jialu River, Wohe River, and Huaihe River to the sea, it will take more than ten years for each river channel, or ten years together. A river channel can spread the sediment of the Yellow River and increase the elevation of the northern plains to prevent the Yellow River channel from being the only one. The amount of these projects is not large. They are the workload of digging a hundred miles of canals. Daming's finances can completely We can afford it. Only by carrying out sand flushing and diversion of the Yellow River at the same time can we completely control the floods in Shandong, and even solve the problem of repeated flooding of the Yellow River in later generations!"
When the prince heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, what my fourth brother said is a great achievement for the ages!"
He originally thought that Zhu Gaojie wanted to take credit when he opened his mouth, but he never thought that he would have such an idea, which really shocked him.
As soon as Zhu Di heard the word "Qianqiu Gongye", he immediately became energetic.
He was born in a rebellion, so he cared about fame more than any other emperor in the Ming Dynasty. If he can bring blessings and blessings to the Ming Dynasty, and he carries the honor of great achievements for a long time, he can go to meet Emperor Taizu Gao.
"Well said! Great achievements for thousands of years, this statement is very suitable for me!" Zhu Di immediately changed his face, "The fourth child is really my Kirin son!"
He seemed to have forgotten that just now, he pointed at Zhu Gaojie's nose and angrily scolded him as a "traitor".
