"It keeps raining! If you measure the water level of the Qinhuai River for the first time, it will rise to twenty-two feet eight."
Wang Huai looked at Wu Bangzuo from the Ministry of Industry and spoke lightly.
Wu Bangzuo’s pupils dilated.
"Did you put the water in? How could you control it to be twenty-two feet eight when I measured it?"
Wu Bangzuo didn't believe Wang Huai at all. When it rained so heavily, the water level was completely different when measured sooner or later. How dare he be accurate to an inch!
If this man is not a madman, he is a river god.
No, the river god cannot have such boundless power, unless he is the Dragon King who brings rain!
Xie Huan shook his head secretly, Taoist Xiao Wang, you messed up this time, the sign was splashed with paint.
Wang Huai talked and laughed freely.
"You measure again before entering the palace. The water level will rise to twenty-five feet. On the seventh day of the lunar month tomorrow, measure again and it will have risen to twenty-nine feet."
Wu Bangzuo no longer wanted to hear his nonsense, but when he heard "twenty-nine feet", his heart skipped a beat.
According to historical records, the largest flood in the Qinhuai River occurred in the Tang Dynasty and was only a little over thirty feet tall.
At that time, the farmland became a vast sea, and the people fed the fish and turtles!
Twenty-five feet is the flood warning level.
Twenty-nine feet, it was already flooded.
Moreover, the Ministry of Industry spent a huge amount of money to build the Dongshui Pass. If something happens to the Qinhuai River, it will be a trivial matter if the year-end bonus is wiped out, and maybe even the job will be lost.
"If Dongshui Pass is there, the Qinhuai River will not..."
Wang Huai pointed to the heavier rain outside the door.
"I'm afraid this rain will not last until the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and Dongshuiguan will burst its embankments. The water level of the Qinhuai River cannot be stopped even if it is 33 feet. Only by opening the gates and discharging the floods can we save a chance of survival."
Wu Bangzuo felt heartbroken for a while, his hands and feet were cold. At this age, when had he ever seen such a heavy rain?
If it continues to rain like this until tomorrow, it is entirely possible that Dongshuiguan will burst...
Compared with the Qinhuai River floods, the bursting of the embankments is really fatal. Losing your job is a small matter, but it might be losing your head!
"No way, Qintian has monitored it, and the weather is good until the seventh day of the lunar month..."
As Wu Bangzuo spoke, he shut up and his face became even more embarrassed.
The good weather predicted by Qin Tianjian turned out to be a shower, and the slap in the face was louder than the rain hitting the banana...
Wang Huai understood that Wu Bangzuo was not qualified to see Lao Zhu, so he softened his tone.
"It's still not too late. You can find out the water level, remember the time, and report back to the East Palace. My words can be truthfully conveyed to the prince. He knows what to do."
After saying this, Wang Huai walked through the crowd, his back disappearing into the wind and rain.
This is a rain that cannot be calculated. It only begins and we don’t know when it will stop.
It is undoubtedly artificial rainfall. Even with the blessing of black technology from previous lives, it cannot achieve this momentum, which shows that there are experts behind it!
Wang Huaai has to do two things, otherwise the consequences will be serious...
Qinhuai Tower.
Wu Bangzuo and Xie Huan went out, changed their umbrellas into raincoats, got on their horses, and galloped away with the Jin Yiwei.
In less than half an hour, the Qinhuai River approached the water level survey point.
Wu Bangzole horse stopped.
It rained heavily and the water rose.
As long as you grind the foreign work, the water level can easily exceed four feet, and you can smash the long signboard.
"Go and see, how many feet there are, walk slowly, don't be in a hurry!"
"Yes, sir!"
The Ministry of Industry horse boy who followed him slowly swallowed his horse and walked swayingly.
Suddenly, he took a big step, couldn't stop with a "click", staggered, fell down with a "pop", and slid towards the Qinhuai River...
"Wow!"
The moment he fell into the water, Xie Huan jumped off his horse, fell to the river, and picked him up.
After the prince fell into the water, Xie Huan worked hard to practice water skills, and even his vigilance was sublimated.
Unexpectedly, the prince never fell into the water again, and his hard work allowed this ponyboy to take advantage first.
Ma Zai was shocked and thanked him, and quickly looked at the water gauge.
"Sir, twenty-two feet eight!"
Can this be calculated accurately?
Xie Huan was stunned. He was not taken advantage of by Ma Zai, but by Taoist Xiao Wang...
Wu Bangzuo's vision went dark and he could hardly stand still.
At that time, I just thought it was nonsense and never thought that the masters were among the people.
Otherwise, even if you want to be a foreigner, you will fall down, causing the water level to accurately hit his value. How can this be perfectly explained?
The water level is constantly rising. Without that struggle, it would easily exceed 22 feet 8!
Is it possible to calculate accurately even when fighting, or is God helping him?
"Go back to the East Palace and ask to see His Highness the Crown Prince." Xie Huan reminded.
"Mr. Xie, this is not good, the water level has not reached the warning level..."
As he said that, he remembered what the little Taoist priest said, "Measure again before entering the palace, the water level... is twenty-five feet."
If you don’t believe me, I’ll speed up this time!
Wu Bangzuo muttered, mounted his horse, whipped his whip, and galloped back to the palace.
Passing by the water level survey point closest to the palace, Wu Bangzuo didn't hesitate at all. He got off his horse and went to measure it himself...
Twenty-five feet, warning water level!
The little Taoist priest made the calculation accurately again!
Xie Huan is convinced, Taoist Master Xiao Wang’s golden sign is invulnerable to water and fire, and even paint cannot be splashed on it...
Wu Bangzuo was worried, and there was no better way at this time.
It is easy for Your Majesty to find them, but it is not easy for them to find Your Majesty.
When the report was returned to the Ministry of Works, it was passed on layer by layer and then presented to His Majesty's table. The day lily was already cold!
East Palace.
Abiao looked at the sky and made divination, thinking wildly.
On a rainy day, you can actually turn over the cards, but Concubine Chang went there early, and after turning over the cards, only Lu's one was left, and she was exhausted...
It's still Xiao Wang Taoist priest An Yi, with more than a dozen beautiful and fragrant flower girls. It's not called a flop, it's a matter of grabbing the whole card in one hand. I'm envious!
"Your Highness! Wu Bangzuo, the doctor in the Ministry of Industry, wants to see you!"
Abiao was stunned.
"Wu Bangzuo and Wang Huai signed the contract, and the matter will be left to the Ministry of Industry."
"Your Highness, Taoist Priest Xiao Wang asked him to come. Xie Huan personally took him outside the palace before leaving."
"Let Wu Bangzuo come in..."
Tea Kung Fu.
Ah Biao took Wu Bangzuo to Wuyingdian's study room.
Lao Zhu is furious.
"If you can't even report the weather, what's the use of staying in the Qintian Prison?! It's sunny and windy! Did someone release the water outside? I'm free to do it, you go and do it!"
Several officials from Qintian Prison were kneeling on the ground, trembling with fear. They did not breathe a sigh of relief until the prince appeared.
The prince has a vast amount of water. When he arrives, there will be blue sky, and there will be no need to drink up the water of the Qinhuai River.
However, Abiao looked a little solemn today.
"Father, I'm afraid it's not just raining, but the Qinhuai River has begun to flood, and it's something serious."
On the way here, Wu Bangzuo had already talked to him.
"Wu Bangzuo, say it again!"
"Wei Chen dare not..."
"It's not a threat, it's an instruction."
Hearing this, Lao Zhu turned to Wu Bangzuo who was all wet.
The surprise in Wu Bangzuo's eyes became even more intense.
As soon as the prince heard what Xiao Wang said, he entered the palace without hesitation, only taking Wu Bangzuo with him.
His Majesty attaches great importance to both himself and himself.
I don't have the qualifications to meet His Majesty in private. Even in court meetings, I can only follow the officials. How can I speak?
Seeing Lao Zhu's impatient expression, Wu Bangzuo quickly told everything he saw and heard.
I didn't dare to mention anything other than the idea of sorrying foreign workers. I reported everything honestly, including the number of pitfalls and the water level.
What Wang Huai said was that even if the people along the Qinhuai River were evacuated and relocated, and the floodgates were opened to release floods, they did not dare to hide it.
After hearing that Dongshuiguan would burst its embankments, Zhu Yuanzhang looked majestic.
"Jiang Yu!"
"exist!"
Jiang Wei immediately walked in from the door, bowed his hands, and waited for his orders... This chapter has been completed!
