Daming heir

Chapter 352 Daming Has the Confidence

Thousands of miles of blue waves, thousands of miles of emerald green.

The sky is full of white clouds that can't hide a touch of dark blue. A group of big birds that have spent the winter in the south spread their wings again, fly into the sky, pass through layers of clouds, and head towards their hometown in the north.

Under the clouds, there is a huge water conservancy project that first started in the Spring and Autumn Period of the Central Plains and developed under the rule of Emperor Sui Yang.

Like a black dragon, it is coiled and bent from south to north on the earth, and the countless thin branches are like the blood of the black dragon breaking through the body.Irrigation nourishes the millions of hectares of good fields on both sides of the strait, and maintains the lives of the vicissitudes of life in the millions of fields.

The Canglong connected the great rivers that originated in the prehistoric era, and the thousands of miles of land have been closely connected since then, growing from a prehistoric tribe to a towering tree of a nation.

The big river has clear water, and the big river has yellow dragons.

Now, in the pupils of the geese returning north, more than half of the Canglong has been eroded by the Yellow Dragon. The lake named Hongze extends for hundreds of miles, straddling Huai'an Mansion on Zhili Road and Fengyang Mansion in the central capital.

There are signs of invading Shili Yangzhou.

A huge fleet is sailing from south to north with full sail.

Correct!
That's it!
Zhu Yunxi's eyes lit up, his brows trembled involuntarily, and he had already decided in his heart that Pan Deshan, the Dushui doctor accompanying the Ministry of Industry, was the person he wanted.

"His Royal Highness is sitting in Kaifeng this time, cleaning up the floods, and solving the collapse of the great river. All these things must be ignored. From top to bottom, thousands of miles away, the imperial court needs to spend a lot of money and exert great efforts to achieve peace for hundreds of generations and tame the yellow dragon. Zebei people on both sides of the river."

In front of the gazebo, Pan Deshan was a little nervous.

"I don't want to learn from Wang Gongjing and Jia Gonglu. I want to practice Dayu's dredging method and change today's benefits. I want to use the river to control the river, so that the river bed of the big river is raised every year, the embankment is raised, and the sediment Years of siltation, the people on both sides of the strait are suffering from disasters!"

Everyone believed that as long as Pan Deshan, a fifth-rank official in the Ministry of Industry, answered well, the answer would be in line with His Highness Taisun's wishes.

On this trip, Taisun asked the Ministry of Industry to send someone, and he sent out by himself to stand up in front of Shang Shu to express his opinion.

Standing on the bow of this treasure ship in the Hongwu Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yunxi thought about many, many years later, the dams on the upper and lower reaches of the river, the dams that were cast aside and criticized by countless people.

I was in Hongwu's 18th year of Yichou Ke High School. I entered the court to observe politics and wait for a job. I entered the Ministry of Industry and worked as an official of the Ministry of Industry for nine years.

"Sir! There is a good strategy to tame the river!"

Afterwards, Pan Deshan bowed slightly, saluted, and stood aside, waiting for the grandson's final decision.

"The method of ministering the river is not like the method of Duke Jia's allowing the Kuan River to flood. This method cannot solve the situation where the riverbed in the lower reaches of the Sanmen Gorge is too high and the sediment is silted up."

On the treasure ship, Pan Deshan counted one by one from ancient times to the present.

We must talk about history, we must talk about the past, we must have a historical summary, and then we will have the current analysis and the final conclusion.

On the observatory at the bow of the treasure ship, Pan Deshan, who was dressed in the five-rank white pheasant green robe of the Ming Dynasty, was the official of the Ministry of Industry Dushuiqing, Pan Deshan, bowed and clasped his fists, with a stern expression and a calm tone, and his narration was well-founded.

"Jia Gonglu in the former Yuan Dynasty, he managed the river simultaneously and restored the old way. Li people praised his Jialu River for his governance."

"Treatment of a river is a matter of managing a river for thousands of miles. It should not be limited to one prefecture or one county. If the river is being governed in the lower reaches, the strategy of river governance should be applied to the upper and lower sides of the big river, and one prefecture and county should not be wrong. The governance of the river is in the present, and the benefits are in it. Thousands of years. Those who are tired today will be the descendants of future generations."

If you do a good job of being a prince for thousands of generations, if you don't do it well, the nine clans will be wiped out.

Zhu Yunxi muttered in a low voice: "It seems that it cost a lot and involved a lot."

But still said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness, I am from Wucheng County, Huzhou Prefecture. In the 18th year of Hongwu, Yi Chou Ke was born as a Jinshi."

It seems that Pan Jixun is from Huzhou Prefecture.

The river water that flows into Hongze from the Yellow River washes away the clear water that flows into Hongze from the Huaihe River in the west, and countless broken branches and broken trees float on the water.

While everyone was waiting quietly, Zhu Yunxi waved to the back of the crowd.

After finishing his tea, Pan Deshan wiped his mouth, looked at the emperor's grandson, and waved his finger to the Hongze Lake, which stretched for hundreds of miles in front of the fleet, and the Yellow River channel visible to the naked eye upstream.

It is also the most effective method that was finally verified, and even after the earth-shaking changes have taken place in the Central Plains, the method is still being used and carried forward.

Looking at the shore of the lake in the distance, there are wisps of blue smoke leaving home.

The sailor on the mast, like a water monkey, also grabbed the top of the mast with one hand and waved a colorful flag with the other, sending a flag to the entire fleet to rest on the shore.

After a while, most of the people unified their attitudes, bowed to Zhu Yunxi, and expressed their opinions as the political participants of the Ming Dynasty.

But they don't know that those dams are like the methods proposed by ancient and modern people, using rivers to control rivers, using river water to scour the river bed, and sweeping away the silt and sand deposits on the river bed.Release water in low seasons to nurture the two sides of the river, resist floods and prevent floods.

Pan Deshan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, clenched his fists, and said in a deep voice: "If His Highness trusts, I will spend more than ten years in the great river, costing the court tens of millions of funds and millions of ministers' labor.

They don't know anything, they just bash everything.

"Wang Gongjing of the Eastern Han Dynasty built dikes for 800 years without changing the course. He built a thousand-mile embankment from the south of Puyang City to the Bohai Sea, controlled the Bianqu channel, repaired the Bianqu water gate, and stabilized the river for 800 years."

He just didn't know whether Pan Deshan, the fifth-rank official of the Ministry of Industry, who was standing in front of him, had anything to do with the eternally famous river management minister, Pan Jixun.

At the end of the fleet, there are three other warships equipped with guns.

In the distance, on the leading warship, there were waves of drumming.

Pan Deshan took a deep breath.

"The minister also seconded the proposal."

Yu Tian didn't speak, but nodded, filled the tea bowl with water, and brought it to Pan Deshan.

"Gongren Jia of the Western Han Dynasty, the three strategies for river governance will last for generations, and the strategy of widening the river and flooding."

Among the five officials from the Ministry of Industry, Pan Deshan was the one who left Beijing with him this time.

Then he shook his body, his whole body seemed to have changed, and his eyes shone brightly.

"Let him drink."

According to what Pan Deshan said, even with the minimum of 3000 years of river governance, the imperial court would have to spend no less than 300 million yuan and employ [-] million subjects.

In front, there are three large ships traveling along the river, with guns on both sides to clear the way, and the fast boats traveling around drive away the small boats of river merchants and civilians.

Even though it was tens of miles away, Zhu Yunxi still seemed to be able to hear the crying buried under the green smoke.

"Pan Langzhong, if you are alone to control the river, the Huaihe River, and the transportation, what strategy can you offer for the court?"

Duke Pan will be promoted.

Yu Tian let out a hey, watched Pan Deshan finish the tea in the tea bowl, then took back the tea bowl, trotted through the crowd, and went outside.

Pan Deshan looked at Yu Tian, ​​the head of the Taisun's Mansion who was smiling at him in surprise, and took the tea bowl: "Thank you, Your Highness, I have Lao Yu as my companion."

In Pan Deshan's mind, he quickly sorted out his experience and accumulation in Dushui Qingli Division over the years.

This is the standard that has been in place since the fleet entered the Grand Canal from the Yangtze River and passed the boundary of Yangzhou Prefecture.

For the theory, anyone like him can say it out loud, but things need countless people to practice under the leadership of a few capable people.

Not a lot of ideas.

And his origin in Huzhou Prefecture...

He silently withdrew his gaze, turned his head to look at Pan Deshan, who was standing next to him with his fists lowered.

Pan Deshan summed up his knowledge of the past ten years in the Ministry of Industry, Dushui Qingli, and his travels in various rivers in the south of the Yangtze River. He has read the ancient people's river control strategies, and the river control strategies he summed up by himself are as concise as possible. Sun Bing spoke words that all the ministers and workers present could understand.

The accompanying officials of the official department immediately stood up.

And the many accompanying officials on his side also all held their breath.

"Speak! Explain in detail your method of using rivers to govern rivers!"

With the Jinshi, the Ministry of Industry Du Shuiqing Lisi Langzhong who has achieved the fifth rank?
Zhu Yunxi raised his brows slightly, and he understood in his heart that it was obvious that Pan Deshan was also a capable person.

And behind the three warships in the front of the team, there was a big Ming treasure ship with nine masts and twelve sails, sailing on the river like walking on flat ground, without any waves. (The use of treasure ships in inland rivers has not been verified, and this is only an artistic effect)
Dressed in flying fish suits and embroidered spring knives on their waists, Jin Yiwei stood on both sides of the ship's side, looking menacingly at both sides of the canal, to prevent Xiao Xiao from approaching.

After passing Sanmenxia, ​​the water flow suddenly slowed down, and the sediment was not washed away by the rush water. Day after day, finally, the current big river was higher than the two banks, and the Kaifeng city was buried several times in the history.

"If the ground is flat, the water flow will change from rapid to slow, and the sand and stone in Guanzhong will flow away and dissolve in the water of the big river, and the sediment will never accumulate in the Weinan Plain in Guanzhong.

However, the heartbeats of the others behind the two of them accelerated, and their eyes widened.

"After the Sanmen Gorge, the Yellow River's waterway suddenly opened up, the terrain is flat, and it merges into the Henan Plain. It flows through Henan Prefecture, Huaiqing Prefecture, Kaifeng Prefecture, Guide Prefecture, Yanzhou Prefecture, Xuzhou Prefecture, and Huai'an Prefecture. Together, go east from the mouth of the Huaihe River to join the East China Sea."

Yu Tian, ​​the head of Taisun's mansion who accompanied him, immediately turned around and took the teapot and tea bowl from the attendant, trotted through the crowd, and brought it to the emperor's grandson.

Zhu Yunxie's eyes already revealed a look of emotion.

A total of ten huge cargo ships full of [-] dan are connected to the rear side, and on both sides are more armed fast ships, waiting in groups to guard against crimes on both sides of the strait.

At the center of everyone's line of sight, at the very front of the gazebo, Zhu Yunxi, who was dressed in clothes and facing the wind from the river, sighed softly.

In full view of everyone, Zhu Yunxi put his hand on Pan Deshan's shoulder, and with his arms around Pan Deshan, he turned to the edge of the observation deck. The two of them looked at Hongze Baili Huanglang in front of them.

Now, I finally have the chance to show off my fists and kicks!
Pan Deshan only felt that his heartbeat was about to rise to his throat.

The surrounding officials from various ministries and yamen couldn't help but shift their gazes to Pan Deshan who was standing in front of the grandson.

Isn't it Pan Jixun's method?

No other.

Zhu Yunxi came out in a hurry, he needed to verify whether there was any difference between Pan Deshan's method of harnessing the river and the method he knew.

He shook his robe, cupped his hands towards Pan Deshan, then cleared his voice and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Pan, if you control the river, you will affect the prefectures and counties thousands of miles away. What can Mr. Pan do to make Mr. Pan The strategy to control the river is not bad, and it is applied to the river?"

Zhu Yunxi patted the handrail of the boat lightly with his palm, looking at the surface of Hongze Lake, which is directly connected to the Huai River and the Yellow River, thinking about Pan Deshan's river control strategy.

"His Royal Highness, the Central Plains has been entangled with the great river since the Three Emperors and Five Emperors in ancient times. The river course has changed several times, wantonly in Henan, Shandong, Hebei, Zhili and other places, and millions of subjects are all involved."

"This is a matter of the whole country! It involves the country, and I have doubts."

Tian Mai, who was also accompanying him, quietly left the observation deck.

"I have measured that the annual cost of building dams, dike repairs, and dredging is 300 million yuan. It is estimated that the total cost of dam construction is one million, embankment repair is one million, and dredging is one million. This is the labor of three million subjects."

Left and right is a matter of being promoted to three ranks in an instant.

Following Pan Deshan's explanation, everyone became silent.

He needs someone to find out all of Pan Deshan's life and past, and when the grandson needs it, he can hand it over to the grandson for reading.

Then, he waved his arms and arched his hands towards several people.

The people from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households just finished asking.

On the observation deck at the bow of the treasure ship.

This is the signal for the fleet to dock on the shore.

On the river bank, there are also a large number of rangers scattered for thirty miles, reporting information on both sides at any time.

He glanced at everyone lightly.

Speaking of which, after many years, the Ming Dynasty will have a famous minister of river control, a complete technical minister, also surnamed Pan.

Zhu Yunxi tried to calm down his tone so as not to scare Pan Deshan who was being embraced by him.

Pan Deshan trembled even more, and turned his eyes a little dull to look at the emperor who was right in front of him, staring at his grandson with a smile.

Prince Taibao of the Ming Dynasty, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry and Yudu Yushi of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Pan Jixun, who wrote many famous river control works such as "A View of River Defense", "Two Rivers Guanjian", "Chenduan Dagonglu" and "Liuyutang Collection".

As for the county in Huzhou, Zhu Yunxi really couldn't remember it.

In fact, Zhu Yunxi, who had been waiting for the accompanying officials to express their opinions, finally turned around slowly.

The surrounding officials' eyes gradually became complicated, and they either sighed or envied in their hearts.

The Huai River will be repaired to prevent the river water from rushing into Hongze, Hongze will drink Huaihe water, flow out of Hongze and merge with the water of the Yellow River, flush and supplement the canal for water transportation, dredge the downstream estuary, and the silted fields will also be filled with tens of thousands of hectares. "

Pan Deshan turned sideways, looked at the accompanying colleagues who were asking questions, and shook his shoulders.

The official background gave this official a natural majesty.

Roughly equivalent to a comparison of postdocs, PhDs, and masters?
Zhu Yunxi shook his head, but it is obvious that Pan Deshan, who was born as a Jinshi, was able to take the imperial examination in the 18th year of Hongwu, and it took less than ten years to achieve the position of the doctor of Dushuiqing Lisi of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce. Really capable.

The people from the household department had just finished asking, and another person from the Ministry of Industry came out: "Pan Langzhong, I would like to ask, what is the number of millions of ministers that Pan Langzhong said? Is it a plan of more than ten years that Pan Langzhong said?"

"Your minister observes that the sage Yu the Great was not like his father when he controlled the waters. Instead of blocking them, he changed them to dredging, so that the great rivers would be tamed and the Huaxia would multiply."

Whether it is life or death, whether the name will last through the ages, or whether it will be judged as a war on paper, it is all in this dynasty.

Zhu Yunxi moved his mouth and pointed at Pan Deshan in front of him.

"Where did Pan Langzhong come from?"

People like Ren Hengtai who became members of the Ming Dynasty in just a few short years all had Jinshi or even Sandingjia backgrounds as their support.

He knows how to control the river, but it is impossible to do everything in detail.

A group of brocade-clothed officials and iron-armored generals surrounded the young man in drag.

Because of this, a big river flows out of Guanzhong, and even Sanmenxia is overwhelmed, and the river turns yellow and becomes slurry.Thousands of miles downstream, the river bed has been too high in the past, and the embankment has been raised again and again, and it will collapse when it encounters a flood peak. "

No one showed any eagerness to find out the details of Pan Deshan's strategy for managing the river.

The downstream is even more overwhelmed. The flood peaks and collapses every year, the sea estuary is flooded with salt and alkali, and the seawater has shown signs of backflow and erosion of the riverbed. The Huai'an government spends no less than [-] on cleaning the estuary every year. "

"Only from below can I say that after more than ten years of work, the tens of millions of funds and millions of subjects are naturally used for a total of more than ten years of work."

Then he looked at Pan Deshan with a slightly playful look.

Pan Deshan was puzzled by the grandson's question for a while.

Zhu Yunxi asked about Pan Deshan's background in public for no reason.

Pan Deshan became more and more nervous at this moment. Ever since the grandson asked a question and he replied, he hadn't spoken for a while.

"I have said that the reason for the flooding of the Yellow River is that it is above the Sanmen Gorge in the upper reaches, passes through the Weinan Plain in Guanzhong, and even reaches the Xingxiu Sea at its source. The water coming out of the source is a trembling, clear ice spring, with no sediment, so there is nothing to worry about. Under the water The Tianshan Plateau and even Guanzhong washed both sides of the river. There were also heavy rains that washed away the mountains and forests, and the soil was not enough to protect them.

Among the accompanying officials around, whispers have already begun.

This guy fell into the eyes of the grandson?

An official from the household department came out, cupped his hands at Pan Deshan, and raised his eyebrows: "Pan Langzhong said that the imperial court spent tens of millions of money. How much is this tens of millions in Pan Langzhong's estimate?"

What a big pot!What a great officer!The red-crowned crane Dahongpao!

In front of me is Hongze Lake, which has expanded for hundreds of miles after the flood of the Yellow River caused two embankments in Lankao County to burst.

Choose a place to build a dam, collect water to wash sand, overhaul the embankments on both sides of the bank, build the embankment of the main river, dig the silted waterway separately, and build the outer riverway separately.

It is precisely because of these nationwide water conservancy projects that many people in those years would still remember that the big river around us, before the new era, was flooded every year, broke down every year, and turned into a river every year.

Is it because he was born in Huzhou Prefecture that displeased the grandson?
But the next moment.

"I have read all the strategies of river governance in ancient times. I never think about my dynasty's big river. I think that the ancient people's law can't be reversed. My dynasty should have my own way to control the river."

Zhu Yunxi was also not bored.

This is the principle of conduct and speech in officialdom at this time and even forever.

As for Tong Jinshi, the reason for taking this name is because the imperial court needs more talents to become officials. In fact, they are naturally inferior to those from Sandingjia and Jinshi.

"My minister agrees."

The corners of Zhu Yunxi's mouth raised, his eyes were smiling, his hands were clasped together, and he looked at Pan Deshan: "Pan Langzhong can speak freely."

Rule the river with the river!

Pan Deshan shrank his head and bent his waist almost ninety degrees.

Pan Deshan's heart trembled, and his brows could not help but frown.

Could it be that his own method will be rejected?
But this river, and only this method, can cure the great river.

Zhu Yunxi snorted twice, looked at the officials who held opposing opinions in front of him, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said softly: "But Daming has the confidence!"

　The new year is constantly updated, and the new year is updated.

　　I wish everyone a happy new year, prosperity and good health!
