The scene fell into silence for a moment. Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, the Sixth Prince knew that they were already inclined to defend Yudai Mountain to the death, so he felt a little panicked.

During the chaos in the capital that year, he was captured by King Chen and suffered humiliation. Years later, he still vividly remembers the incident. Over the years, he has always wanted to avenge his previous shame, so he must not let himself fall into the hands of King Chen again. , not to mention that if the guard failed, Shen Qiujun would not be able to escape the fate of being a prisoner. No matter what, he could not just watch her fall into that situation.

Come on, come on, if you don't care for yourself, heaven and earth will destroy you. God has never been kind to me, so why should I have such compassion?

After thinking about it, the Sixth Prince glanced at Zhu Siyuan and said: "You put it lightly. Once Yudai Mountain is lost, Dongchen will be able to occupy a large amount of Daqi's land. In the future, he can also hold on to Yudai Mountain. Daqi will be in a passive position. I think It's not easy to take it back. As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood. We have to defend this place first and prevent Dongchen from taking a step forward. Now that the people have enjoyed Daqi's blessings, it is time for them to contribute to Daqi's foundation. It's time to make some sacrifices. Besides, it's still unclear whether the water can reach Daqi. Maybe everyone is worried too much. In my opinion, flooding Dongchen is a good idea."

Zhu Siyuan couldn't help but jumped in front of the Sixth Emperor, pointed at him and said angrily: "You coward! You are just making excuses for your greed for life and fear of death. Unless we die, we will not be able to survive." We must not let the enemy get into our army. As long as we are still alive, we cannot watch the people being ravaged by others. Now the enemy has not taken action. We have harmed the people first. Fortunately, you are still a prince."

Zhu Zongbing and others were shocked when they saw Zhu Siyuan openly criticizing the sixth prince. In their opinion, the sixth prince could be despised in their hearts, but he was still a prince after all. Although he was not favored by the saint, he still had to live up to his reputation. .

General Zhu hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed his daughter and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense. We are just here to better defend ourselves against the enemy. We are just saying what we want here. There is no such thing as greed for life and fear of death. Why don't you apologize to His Highness? If you do this again If you act recklessly, you should go back home and be your eldest lady."

Zhu Siyuan's eyes turned red when his father scolded him. He hummed: "You know people, you know faces, but you don't know hearts. Who knows what he is thinking."

General Zhu scolded his daughter angrily, and for a moment he apologized to the sixth prince: "It's all because of my incompetent teaching. Your Highness, please don't get along with her."

The Sixth Prince smiled and said: "She also has a pure heart. It's just a disagreement. How could I be angry? I know that holding on and being flooded has its pros and cons. It's really hard to decide. Since you are in trouble, I am here. It’s up to us to decide. It’s estimated that we won’t be able to last for five days, so we’ll simply wait for another three days. If reinforcements don’t arrive, in order to preserve some strength and for the sake of the future war situation, we may not have to break the dike. I hope God will bless us and give us a chance to survive.”

Everyone saw that the Sixth Prince had taken the whole matter into his own hands. They felt relieved and said hurriedly: "We, Da Qi Dynasty, have obeyed God's will and received God's protection. God will surely bless us to defeat Dongchen."

The matter was decided, everyone left the tent and went back to continue their work. Zhu Siyuan watched the opportunity and walked up to the Sixth Prince and sneered: "Everyone says you are extremely treacherous. Now it seems that you are indeed true. You are obviously greedy." I am afraid of death, but I can give such high-sounding reasons, which is in vain..."

When Zhu Siyuan said this, he couldn't help biting his lip, his face turned cold, and said: "People really can't look at their appearance. They look like dogs, but their hearts are extremely cold and poisonous. For the sake of a dog's life,

Anything can be done.”

Seeing that no one was paying attention, the Sixth Prince also sneered: "Now that the enemy is facing us, I don't care about you. However, what you just said can be said to your father and his cronies. Flooding is certainly possible.

The price was heavy, but it was also a helpless move. They had already made the conclusion in their hearts, but they were just being bitches and wanted to erect a memorial arch. They did not want to bear the name, so they made this decision and made this suggestion from beginning to end.

It's them, and they are the ones who are against it. What do I know as a person who escorts grain and fodder? Now that I have fulfilled their wish and taken on this crime, they have also stopped and everyone is happy. Now what kind of onion are you, just here to pretend to be garlic?"

Zhu Siyuan did not expect that the sixth prince spoke so vulgarly and harshly, and she gritted her teeth in anger. The sixth prince sneered and walked away. Only then did she realize that her father and their actions were really criticized by the sixth prince. She suddenly felt angry and ashamed, and secretly swore: "

If I, Zhu Siyuan, can survive this war, I will become a true selfless hero for the country and the people in the future."

The Sixth Prince returned to his tent, thought about it carefully, called Yang Yuan and Captain Bian, and ordered them to return home to protect Shen Qiujun: "No matter what the final situation is, I'm afraid there won't be peace in the city.

We must be on guard against those young men taking the opportunity to cause trouble. Yang Yuan is good at martial arts, and Lieutenant Bian is a local and is familiar with the local customs and terrain. If anything happens, my wife's safety will be entrusted to you."

Yang Yuan and the others took the order and quietly and quickly returned to the city.

Shen Qiujun also heard about the situation in front of him. When he saw the two of them coming back, he quickly called Yang Yuan to ask about the situation in detail.

Yang Yuan did not dare to hide anything and told Shen Qiujun one by one about the severe situation on the battlefield and the decisions made by the Sixth Prince.

After hearing this, Shen Qiujun stroked his lower abdomen and leaned blankly on the pillow: It was indeed the same as in the previous life, the lives of tens of thousands of people were once again blamed on the Sixth Prince.

In her previous life, she only knew that in order to save her own life, the Sixth Prince diverted water to flood Dongchen's soldiers during the war with Dongchen. Although Dongchen suffered heavy losses, she did not expect that Dongchen's terrain was high and coupled with Dongchen's actions,

The water flooded Daqi again, not only making tens of thousands of people homeless, but also causing tens of thousands of unsuspecting people to die in the flood. Although the water receded later, it caused the plague again, killing and injuring many people.

Countless, fortunately General Zheng turned the tide and minimized the consequences of this disaster, and finally regained his strength and defeated King Chen.

It's a pity that she only despised the Sixth Prince's greed for life and fear of death, but never inquired about the details. Therefore, although she has some prophetic ideas in this life, she doesn't know how to avoid it, so this kind of thing still happened.

Shen Qiujun was annoyed for a while, knowing that the flooding issue could not be changed. The only solution now was to reduce the consequences as much as possible. For example, he could take precautions to prevent the water from flooding back to Daqi. As for the life and death of the people, there was no need to worry about it.

consider.

When Shen Qiujun thought of this, he couldn't help but look excited and said, "Please come over, Captain Bian, I have something to ask."

Suddenly Captain Bian came in, and Shen Qiujun did not ask anyone to set up a screen, but asked him and Yang Yuan to sit down on the left and right sides.

Seeing this, Captain Bian knew that Shen Qiujun must have something important to discuss with him. On the other hand, it also showed that he regarded himself as a trusted person, so he hurriedly thanked him and sat down.

Shen Qiujun got straight to the point: "I have heard what happened before. I am afraid that the whole army will be destroyed if we defend. If we cannot defend, the only way is to flood. So I specially invited you here because I want to know whether you will come back if the embankment breaks. It has flooded Daqi. This is a confidential matter. Liu Ye and I are very worried, but there is nowhere to ask. Fortunately, you are a local and I think you are very familiar with the terrain here. I hope you can give me some advice."

Lieutenant Bian had also heard some rumors. Although flooding was a helpless act, this was his ancestral hometown, and he naturally knew the consequences of flooding. Although he was helpless, there was nothing he could do about it.

At this time, when Shen Qiujun came to ask, he said bluntly: "Although Daqi is protected by Yudai Mountain, the terrain is low after all. If Dongchen wants to make every effort to send people back, the place will be flooded. However, it will be flooded." Madam, please rest assured that the terrain of this city is not bad, and if the city gate is tightly closed, you can still escape."

Xue Liu had already taken the terrain map here from the study. Shen Qiujun ordered her to unfold the map and show it to Yang Yuan and the others. He also said: "Sixth Master is here on behalf of the emperor. Naturally, he does not want such a tragedy to happen to his people, and Mr. Bian He is a local, and he doesn't want to see his fellow villagers suffer from floods. However, this matter is confidential. Before it is done, no words can be revealed, and there is no time to prepare at all. Therefore, it is still Lord Bian, please think carefully about where Dongchen will divert the water back, so that you can send troops to protect it in advance."

Lieutenant Bian pushed the map aside, looked up and said lightly: "The topography here is all in Xiaguan's mind, there is no need to look at the map. To be honest, if the water is too strong, even if Dongchen doesn't divert it, then the water will be too If it can flood back, the Dongchen diverting water will only intensify the water flow, and it is basically impossible to prevent it."

"Is there no way to take precautions?" Shen Qiujun felt his heart suffocate and became a little excited: "The flood is ruthless and the people have no precautions. It is not a danger to be displaced. I am afraid that their lives will not be saved. If you continue Think about it."

Lieutenant Bian sighed: "If there was a way, General Zhu and the others would not let Mr. Liu take on this responsibility."

Shen Qiujun suddenly became discouraged and couldn't help but secretly think about it: Can he persuade the Sixth Prince to give up the idea of ​​flooding?

Seeing Shen Qiujun's ugly face, Xue Liu hurriedly poured a bowl of warm water and handed it to her. Yang Yuan whispered to Captain Bian: "This matter is related to the future of Mr. Liu. You and I are both under his hands. It will be difficult for him. You My life is even worse. If you can think of a way that has even a hint of hope, please feel free to tell me, even if it is for your relatives here."

Lieutenant Bian glanced at Shen Qiujun secretly and saw that her complexion had improved. He gritted his teeth, got up and knelt down on the ground, saying: "Madam, if we resort to flooding, there is nothing we can do about it." , but there is another way for Xiaguan, but, just, I can't guarantee that it will work, so although I have been thinking about it in my mind for a long time, I dare not say it in front of Mr. Liu. Now that Madam is asking you earnestly, I dare to say it. If what I said above is inappropriate, just pretend you haven’t heard it, Madam.”
