Chapter 232 shudder
Qin Yi wasn't sure whether his guess was right or not, but he knew that with such rain, it was necessary to be more vigilant to avoid floods.

Such natural disasters, if they occur, will bring casualties and displacement of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people.

Therefore, Qin Yi didn't dare to delay, and immediately put on his coir raincoat and bamboo hat, braving the downpour, and walked towards the Grand General's courtyard.

The rain was so heavy that Qin Yi didn't ride a horse, and walked towards Huashangfang step by step, stepping on the rainwater as deep as his calf.

It took a long time for Qin Yi to arrive at Dingjunhou's Mansion.

He stepped forward and knocked on the door. Not long after, the vermilion door was opened with a gap, and a boy holding an umbrella appeared, looking at Qin Yi in surprise, "Your Excellency?"

He didn't expect that in such a torrential rain, someone would come here despite the rain.

"I'm Qin Yi, if you need to find Lord Hou, please let me know." Qin Yi said loudly.

The boy was originally displeased and was about to refuse, but when he heard Qin Yi's name, he was taken aback for a moment.

A first-class student from the Grand General Academy defeated Heng Yu and became the strongest warrior of the new Linzhan younger generation. Qin Yi's name is already well-known far and wide, from the dignitaries in the court to the servants in the hall. People don't know.

If it were a student from the Grand General Academy, it might not be easy to use, but Qin Yi was an exception.

So he was stunned for a moment, and the servant hurriedly responded, "Young Master, wait a moment, I'll report right away."

Then, the servant didn't close the door, and ran towards the front yard holding an umbrella.

After only waiting for a moment, Qin Yi found that the butler Mr. Liu, whom he had met before, was walking quickly with a few servants.

As a result, he was surprised.

It stands to reason that it would not be so fast if he went to report.

After ordering the servant to open the gate, Mr. Liu, who was holding an umbrella, said with a smile, "Young Master Qin, you are here."

Qin Yi cupped his hands in a salute, and the rainwater poured down on his raised arm, and was splashed everywhere by the coir raincoat, "I have met Mr. Liu."

"Please come in with me." Liu Laoci said with a smile.

Qin Yi immediately followed Mr. Liu, and walked quickly through the front yard where the water was not deep.

He asked aloud, "I have something to look for Hou Ye, I wonder if Hou Ye is in the mansion?"

Mr. Liu said with a smile, "Master is here."

Then, he turned his head to look at Qin Yi with deep meaning in his eyes, "Master once ordered that no matter whether he is here or not, you have to come into the mansion when you come."

Qin Yi immediately understood that it was no wonder that the young man communicated so quickly, so he didn't need to ask Ding Junhou.

It can be seen from this that Marquis Dingjun treated him quite favorably.

Not long after, the two of them came to the hall, and in the hall, Ding Junhou in red robe and white beard was sitting at the main seat.

Seeing Qin Yi's arrival, Marquis Ding stood up and greeted him with a smile, "Qin Yi, it's raining so hard, why don't you tell me so that I can send a carriage to pick you up."

"Students have met Lord Hou," Qin Yi said with a smile, clasping his hands, "Wearing a coir raincoat and walking quickly in the rain, it has a special flavor."

Hearing this, Marquis Dingjun laughed, and said to Old Liu, "Immediately serve a cup of ginger tea to Qin Yi to get rid of the cold."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Liu immediately resigned and left.

Then, two young servants stepped forward to help Qin Yi take off his coir raincoat and bamboo hat, and took them to the side hall to dry.

"Sit." Ding Junhou said with a smile.

After the two sat down, Qin Yi looked around and found no one around, so he said solemnly, "Master Hou, the students came here to tell you something important."

Seeing Qin Yi's expression, Marquis Dingjun couldn't help frowning, "Just say it."

Qin Yi said in a deep voice, "200 years ago, the rain was continuous and lasted for ten days, and the Lijiang River was full of water, and the downstream became wild; a hundred years ago, the spring floods continued, and the Lijiang River burst its embankment, and the floods spread throughout the four provinces, causing countless victims. ..."

These two passages are recorded in the history books.

Of course, the records are not limited to this point, but also include the consequences.

The two major ruptures of the Lijiang River almost hurt the country. The one 200 years ago led to plagues, starvation and death, and tens of thousands of deaths.

And that time a hundred years ago, refugees were scattered all over the country, and millions of them turned into bandits, causing chaos and chaos.

Lin Zhan, who was deeply affected by the disaster, took the power of the whole country to suppress the banditry, so that the national power was greatly reduced.

Seeing this opportunity, Dali took advantage of the opportunity to invade, and the army was invincible, and rushed straight to Zhanjing.

At the time of peril, Wei Zheng, an outstanding man, with extraordinary courage and strategy, led many soldiers who dared to die, staged an epic defense of Zhanjing, and established his reputation through the ages in one fell swoop.

These two breaches both brought such serious disasters, so Qin Yi just mentioned it, and Ding Junhou's brows were wrinkled into the word Chuan, and his face was full of worry.

At this time, he already understood what Qin Yi was going to say.

"Are you trying to say that such heavy rain is likely to cause the Li River to burst?" Ding Junhou asked in a deep voice.

Qin Yi nodded, "That's right, if such a situation occurs, it is very likely that it will be used by those with evil intentions."

He even felt that this spring flood was what the Chixin Gate was waiting for.

This is their backhand!

The barbarian rebellion was just trying to attract Lin Zhan's attention and ignore the water news of Lijiang.

Maybe, it has been raining heavily for more than ten days, and it has become a flood, but it has been hindered, and the news cannot reach Zhanjing, or...someone is hiding it and not reporting it!
What's more, even if the water level of the Lijiang River is high, it has not yet breached, but if someone digs the dam...

Thinking of this, Qin Yi shuddered slightly, a little shuddered, and didn't dare to guess again.

We can only hope that the situation is still good and can be improved or saved.

At this moment, Marquis Ding Jun had a serious expression on his face, and his face sank like water. After pondering for a while, he said in a deep voice, "You go back first, I will go to the palace to face the saint, and report this matter!"

After finishing speaking, he shouted to the door, "Come here, prepare a car for Qin Yi, and send him back to the Grand General's Court."

After sending Qin Yi away, Marquis Dingjun changed into his official robe, hurried into the carriage, and ordered the driver to gallop towards the palace.

The rain was torrential and the vision was affected. It was not supposed to gallop the horse, but the Marquis Dingjun gave such instructions, so the coachman dared not obey. He could only steer the horse quickly while shouting loudly, hoping not to bump into any unlucky ones.

At this moment, he suddenly heard the same urgent shout coming from the street corner ahead, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

Looking at the direction, it should be going to the palace. Could it be that at this time, there are still people like the master who need to go out in a rainy day because of the rush?

Pay attention to the avoidance, the two carriages did not collide, but drove side by side, and drove towards the palace together, like arrows, breaking through the heavy rain curtain at a rapid speed.

Lifting the curtain, Marquis Ding Jun looked out, and happened to see the carriage next to him, the curtain was also lifted, revealing a tough and solemn face, and those deep eyes.

Wu Xiang?

Marquis Dingjun was suddenly surprised, why did Prime Minister Wu go to the palace in the rain when it was raining so heavily?
