Chapter 53 Going to the Yellow River
The meaning of Li Haochen's words was to hit Zhao Ran and let him resign if he did not encounter any incidents in the future. Zhao Ran naturally understood the meaning of Li Haochen's words, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Xiaoguan must follow the teachings of the lord! The last time the lord resigned, the whole sky was dark. If the lord did not want to turn black, he could only find a bright spot by himself. However, after the lord arrived at Henan Road, the sky on Henan Road was dawn, which made Xiaguan know that the sky was always bright, but because the dark clouds obscured him! If you give the lord another chance, the lord must be the wind that blows away the dark clouds, rather than avoiding the dark clouds!"
Li Haochen heard Zhao Ran’s metaphor and knew that he really understood what he meant. He nodded with satisfaction and said, “Okay, you can be so good! Now you accompany me to the Yellow River embankment to inspect the disaster situation!”
Zhao Ran heard Li Haochen's words and waved his hand and said, "Sir, don't you? The water flow speed after the Yellow River breaks is very fast. You must not take any risk! If you make any mistakes, it will be the official's fault!" In fact, Zhao Ran knew that there are Wang Hu's people on the edge of the Yellow River. If they want to attack Li Haochen, it would be easy. He knew clearly how the Minister of Personnel died in the court. At this moment, he believed that Li Haochen was the hope of the entire Henan Road. There could be no mistakes, and he could not follow in the footsteps of the Minister of Personnel who died unjustly.
Li Haochen did not understand Zhao Ran's intentions, but listened to him being about to retreat again, and snorted coldly: "Zhao Zhubu, what you said to me just now is still in your ears. At this moment, you have said such words. I think you have not understood what I taught you just now!" As he said that, he shook his sleeves and turned his back, obviously he did not want to look at Zhao Ran again.
Zhao Ran felt extremely wronged at this moment. He said so for the sake of Li Haochen's goodness, but what he got was Li Haochen's scolding. However, for the sake of the entire Henan Road, Zhao Ran could only endure the grievance in his heart: "Sir, the lower official does not mean that. If the lord really wants to know the situation of the breach, the lower official will just take a trip instead of the lord, but the lord will never go! You don't know that the Yellow River embankment is responsible for Wang Hu's personal guard. If the lord goes, the lower official is afraid that these people will be detrimental to you!"
Li Haochen was not stupid. After listening to Zhao Ran's explanation, Li Haochen knew that he had blamed Zhao Ran wrongly. Zhao Ran was indeed for his safety. Li Haochen thought for a moment and said, "Zhao Zhuan, I blamed you wrongly just now, but I must go to the embankment of the Yellow River! If Wang Hu's personal guard is responsible for guarding the embankment, then I have to go and see. With Wang Hu's character, his followers may harm the people! But don't worry, I am not the civil servant who has no power. You can rest assured about the safety of this official. How do you want to go to inspect the embankment of the Yellow River with me?"
When Zhao Ran heard Li Haochen say this, he knew that it would be meaningless to persuade him again. The commander was still too young and a little impulsive, but when he thought that the situation in Henan Province still had to rely on him, he thought that he had to follow him. If there was any accident, he could also deal with him in the middle, so as not to let the commander follow the footsteps of the Minister of Personnel.
Zhao Ran, thinking about this, quickly said: "The Lord is willing to go with you!"
Li Haochen didn't know that Zhao Ran had such a strong mind. In fact, he did not take Wang Hu's follower seriously. Wang Hu was not afraid, let alone his follower.
Li Haochen was very happy when he heard Zhao Ran's reply, and said, "Okay, I did not read the wrong person, so let's set off now!"
Zhao Ran looked at Li Haochen's only team of people, about twenty, and couldn't help but frowned: "Sir, you just bring such a few people? Don't bring more people?" Zhao Ran knew that there were more than one hundred people in the Yellow River embankment. If there was a real conflict, Li Haochen's 20 people would not be enough to see.
Li Haochen listened to Zhao Ran's words and said curiously: "These people are enough. The remaining people need to settle the victims. I think there are a lot of these people. We go to survey the Yellow River embankment, not to go to war. Why do we bring so many people?"
Although Zhao Ran and Li Haochen had not been in contact for a long time, he also understood that Li Haochen was the kind of person who was right. If he made a decision, it would be difficult for others to change his mind. Zhao Ran knew that it was meaningless to persuade him, so he could only pray in his heart that Li Haochen would not have a conflict with those guarding the embankment, otherwise he would not know whether he could save Li Haochen's life. Although Zhao Ran was already nervous at this moment, he still quickly walked forward a few steps, followed Li Haochen's pace, and went to the Yellow River embankment to inspect the Yellow River breach and the disaster situation.
The group, about ten miles south of Bianzhou City, saw a vast ocean, floating on the yellow water surface, with swollen corpses. Li Haochen knew that these were the villagers who were killed by the sudden flood when they escaped. However, normally the court would send a salvage team to salvage the bodies out and bury them. But at this moment, these corpses were still floating on the water surface, which made Li Haochen frown. You must know that the court would strictly order the burial of the post-disaster corpses to prevent the corruption of the bodies from breeding plague and causing greater disasters. This matter is caused by
The top priority after the disaster, Henan Road is so bold and damn! But what Li Haochen is more concerned about at this moment is that his current location is about twenty miles away from the Yellow River embankment, but there is no road to go at this location, which shocked Li Haochen. He turned to look at Zhao Ran and said, "How could it be so serious?" Li Haochen's words were not aimless. Normally, the Yellow River breach caused flooding. Generally, it is already very serious if it lasts for ten miles. However, there is not so much precipitation this year, so how could it be so serious?
Zhao Ran knew what Li Haochen asked, and hurriedly bowed and said, "According to normal circumstances, it would not be so serious, it's just..."
Li Haochen looked at Zhao Ran's hesitant look, and was a little angry, and asked coldly: "It's just something, tell me the truth. If you dare to hide it at all, don't blame me for turning against you!"
Li Haochen looked at Zhao Ran after hearing what he had just said, and hesitated. He snorted coldly, pulled out the sword from his waist, and suddenly crossed between Zhao Ran's neck, and asked again: "Why not say that?"
