,

Queen Ma also said: "Yes, tell me quickly what happened."

The fuss lasted for a long time, and people started to scold me.

But they still don't know what happened.

Speaking of this matter, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression also darkened.

His eyebrows were lowered and his lips were pursed deeply.

"Lao Wu is missing."

"what?!"

Everyone was shocked.

Queen Ma's face turned pale instantly.

Zhu Xi had already read the memorial just now, but when he heard it again now, he was not so surprised.

He just sat there with a gloomy face.

Zhu Biao's face was extremely ugly. Looking at the surprised people, he added: "The Xiangjiang River overflowed and there was a flood in Hengyang. In order to provide disaster relief, Lao Wu was washed away by the flood. Now... his life or death is unknown." Zhu Biao only felt that the last four words Extraordinarily heavy.

He took his time before saying these words.

Everyone present was silent.

Chu Ze put down the chopsticks in his hand, unable to explain how he felt.

A major disaster just broke out in the northwest, and there was another flood in the Xiangjiang River.

He even washed away a prince.

"The Xiangjiang River has been dredged, so how could a flood suddenly break out?" Chu Ze was confused.

Since ancient times, big rivers like this have been managed by specialized people.

Just to prevent this from happening.

The most important thing is that I haven't heard of heavy rain these days.

Without heavy rain, where would this water come from?

Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang obviously also thought about this issue.

I can't continue to eat this meal.

Zhu Yuanzhang was about to take Queen Ma and Zhu Biao back to the palace quickly.

Chu Ze suddenly stood up and called Zhu Yuanzhang: "Your Majesty, something happened to Lao Wu. We want to go over and take a look."

Zhu Rui finally called him "Sir", but now he is missing and his life and death are still unknown.

It would be unjustifiable in his conscience for him not to go and take a look.

Chu Ze looked at Zhu Yuanzhang steadily, his eyes firm.

If Zhu Yuanzhang didn't agree, he would find a way to go by himself.

Zhu Yuanzhang turned around and looked at him.

"Father, let's go too." Zhu Ping stood up immediately.

Li Xing also wants to go.

But he didn't know whether Zhu Yuanzhang would agree.

Regardless of whether he agrees or not, ask first and then talk. If you ask, there's half a chance, but if you don't ask, there's even half a chance.

With this idea in mind, Li Xing also said: "Your Majesty, I have experience in water control, and I can also help."

When he was wandering in the flower boat, Zhu Rui had helped him at least.

Going this time is a way to repay him.

The most important thing is that he has a lot of leisure now. If he doesn't find something to do, he will definitely be bored to death.

It is better to follow Chu Ze.

He said nothing about these thoughts.

Just what he said about how to control water made Zhu Yuanzhang look askance.

When he was hesitating, Chu Ze said again: "Li Xing knows how to control floods, and we can also come up with some ideas, and we are good at post-disaster reconstruction. If we let us go together, we will definitely help Hengyang recover as soon as possible. Zhu Xi can just find someone."

Zhu Xiang's eyes widened instantly.

What do you mean he just wants to find someone? Apart from finding people, he has no other ability!

"Sure, we are responsible for finding people. No matter whether he is dead or alive, we will definitely get Lao Wu back." Zhu Xi patted his chest and promised. This provoked Zhu Yuanzhang to glare at him again and cursed angrily: "What is life or death? You must bring the person back well. You yourself must come back well for me." Don't think he doesn't know. , areas after disasters are always very dangerous.

But Chu Ze and the others took the initiative to ask for help, and he would not refuse.

Moreover, Chu Ze's departure also made him feel at ease.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not leave in a hurry, but turned around and said to Chu Ze: "Then you pack your things immediately and leave for Hengyang today. If you want anything, just tell us and we will give it to you. By the way, I will allocate some more manpower to you. You bring these things with you along with the supplies. Also, come back safely, you will have to teach others how to make potato vermicelli after you come back."

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he immediately returned to the palace.

After returning to the palace, he worked with Zhu Biao and quickly ordered the hands assigned to Chu Ze, and immediately allocated some supplies.

Chu Ze packed up his things, took people and supplies, and set off immediately, rushing to Hengyang as quickly as possible.

Only when they arrived at the disaster area did they know what the words Zhu Biao said meant.

This flood in Hengyang is a once-in-a-century event.

The water flowing down from the Xiangjiang River washed away all the banks along the way.

Even the city wall of Hengyang was washed away and the people were displaced and homeless.

When they arrived, the entire Hengyang City was actually dominated by a scribe.

Seeing the scribe, Chu Ze frowned.

He asked coldly: "Where are the other officials?"

Such a big thing happened in your own territory, and you didn't even come forward?

Damn it.

Next, he heard the clerk say: "Sir, Hengyang City was severely affected by the disaster this time, and there were many disaster-stricken places around it. The prefect has gone to take charge, and now the situation in Hengyang City is better. There are not enough people. See the prefect. We can usually do things well, so we are left here to be in charge temporarily and receive people sent from Beijing by the way."

After hearing this, Chu Ze realized that he had misunderstood.

"Where's Lao Wu?"

Zhu Xi immediately asked.

"Who is Lao Wu?" The scribe didn't recognize Zhu Xi and looked at him strangely.

In other words, Zhu Xi came with Chu Ze, otherwise the scribes would not bother to pay attention to him.

Li Xing answered: "This is your second prince, and the fifth prince he mentioned refers to your prince who was washed away by the water."

After saying this, the scribe understood.

He quickly saluted Zhu Ping.

Zhu Feng impatiently pulled him up and said, "Don't mess with these nonsense, the progress on Lao Wu's side is going on now."

He is worried now.

The scribe sighed helplessly and said: "Your Highness, I'm sorry. After the prince was washed away by the water, our prefect and people from the prince's palace have already sent people out to look for him. But... until now, there has been no one. News." When the scribe said this, he glanced at Zhu Ping guiltily.

I was afraid that he would suddenly get violent and hit someone.

Zhu Xi really wanted to hit someone.

But he knew that hitting people at this time was useless.

The most important thing now is to get the person back as soon as possible.

On the way here, Chu Ze told them to lead people to look for Zhu Ju and those who were washed away by the water.

He and Li Xing were responsible for the rescue.

Zhu Fang looked at Chu Ze and said immediately: "Then let's go."

"Go ahead and take care of yourself."

Needless to say, everyone knows what they should do at this time.

Zhu Ping turned around and immediately took part of the team away.

As soon as he left, Chu Ze also started to move.

He said to the scribe: "Prepare a place immediately. We have brought many doctors with us this time, and prepare a place for them to use for diagnosis and medicine. And for those materials, arrange for people to move them away, and then Tell us more about the current situation."

"Okay."

The scribe told Chu Ze that the disaster suddenly broke out one afternoon.

At that time, many people were working in the fields.

When the flood comes, they have nowhere to hide. (End of chapter)
