Chapter 814: Inspecting the River Works
Oh? Is there such a thing?
Gong Daqi was slightly surprised that one of his subordinate officials, his articles were so admired by the scholars in his hometown.
Gong Daqi pinched his beard and said: "Lin Sanyuan's "Annotations on Ancient Texts of Shangshu" is very good, and I have read the annotations three times. As for his writings, he has not yet read them. ”
"My grandson is right next to me."
Yuan Zhongdao, the youngest of the three brothers, pulled out a booklet from his side.
Gong Daqi saw that this booklet was Yuan Zhongdao, and he cherished it and wrapped it in blue silk.
After Gong Daqi took it, he saw that the booklet had the words "Xuegongtang Yu" written on it, and he couldn't help but wonder: "This is written by Lin Sanyuan?" ”
Yuan Zongdao said with a smile: "Grandpa, this is Mr. Xuegong's disciple, and he collected Mr. Xuegong and his disciples, and answered each other when he was teaching in Xuegongtang. ”
Gong Daqi laughed when he heard this: "This is not an imitation of the Analects. ”
After Gong Daqi finished speaking, he saw that the three brothers of the Yuan family had a straight face, and said together: "In the hearts of our Lin disciples, this book is not inferior to the Analects. ”
"That's too much."
Gong Daqi said in his heart, and after reading it, he saw that the book was densely packed with annotations written by Yuan Zhongdao.
Gong Daqi, who has spent decades working Zhu Zi's scriptures, has long had a fixed opinion in his heart, and he has reservations about the scriptures outside of Zhu Zi's scriptures, but he will not judge them one-sidedly.
After reading it, Fang was a Confucian cultivator, but Gong Daqi couldn't help but say when he saw that there were few words in Xuegongtang: "Lin Sanyuan, the argument of the king, the argument of righteousness, the argument of the holy king, in terms of Cheng Zhu's words, can be called the stone of other mountains, and can grind my jade." ”
When the three brothers of the Yuan family saw Gong Daqi praising this book, they were even happier than he praised himself.
Yuan Zongdao said: "The debate of the king, the debate of righteousness and benefit, and the debate of the holy king are the three debates of Confucianism, and they are also the fundamental differences between Zhu Xue and Lin Xue. There is a saying in the book, the two edges are cut off, the blunt is known, Cheng Zhu's words may not be wrong, what is said in the book may not be right, when reading Cheng Zhu Jingyi, you may wish to make up for it with merit, and when you read it, you can compare it with Cheng Zhu Jingyi. ”
Gong Daqi nodded, returned the book to Yuan Zhongdao, and said: "You respect Lin Sanyuan so much, you can know that he has come to Henan as an official and is a fellow governor in Guide Mansion." ”
The three brothers were all surprised when they heard this: "This grandson doesn't know." ”
Yuan Hong said: "When Mr. Xuegong returned to his hometown and province, I met him Daozuo, although there were only a few words, but Mr. Feng's bones are still remembered. If he is now an official in Guide, we will just go to the meeting and ask for questions. ”
When the other brothers heard this, they all wanted to go.
Yuan Zongdao said to Gong Daqi: "Grandfather, dare to ask Lin Zonghai how he is an official under your rule?" ”
Gong Daqi is the political envoy of Zuobu, a dignified member from the second grade, and Yang Yikui is only a third-grade official. As the political envoy of Zuobu in Henan Province, the officials of the prefecture and county under Yu have the right to evaluate and evaluate.
The three brothers of the Yuan family asked Gong Daqi what they thought of Lin Yanchao, and they were also worried in their hearts. You must know that Gong Daqi was also a Confucian before he became an official, and he respected Cheng Zhu's learning all his life, so he shouldn't be so appreciative of Lin Yanchao's work.
But Gong Daqi remembered today's words with Governor Yang Yikui, and then said: "Lin Sanyuan's learning, although I don't agree with it, but as far as being an official, I have already achieved the word 'clear and cautious'. ”
And in Guide Mansion, Lin Yanchao was already on his way to Yucheng County.
The temporary government affairs are not a beauty difference for Lin Yanchao, but a boulder pressing on him.
In addition to the river workers, if the government in the government does well, then it is the credit of the next prefect, but if it is not good, it is his own responsibility, and Lin Yanchao will take the blame if something happens.
Places like Guide are not easy to govern, and if you are not careful, you will make mistakes.
Thinking of this, Lin Yanchao pinched his eyebrows, feeling that the greater the power, the greater the responsibility.
Soon the car had arrived at Yucheng County.
Yucheng is Linhe County of Defu, and it is also a riverside shortage with great responsibility. Last time, Yucheng County was attacked by the rebels again, and the magistrate abandoned the city and fled, and was imprisoned by the imperial court. Now Yucheng County is also the county governor of the county.
I came to the base of the city wall, but I saw the yellow sand rushing to my face, combined with the cold wind, like a knife in the sky.
Here is the Yucheng County Cheng who greeted him, the lord Bo, the pawn, and the rest are officials.
The county is only eight grades, and Lin Yanchao and other officials are trembling when they inspect it.
The other party said respectfully: "Sima is coming to our county, and the officials and people in our county are all looking forward to it. The lower official had already arranged a place for Sima to stay, and Sima could take a short rest, and the squire of the county came forward to pick up Sima in the evening. ”
Lin Yanchao glanced up, and then said: "Huang Xiancheng, it's still early, you go to the river embankment with this official first." ”
Huang Xiancheng complimented everyone: "Sima did not forget his official affairs when he first arrived, and he is really a model for our officials." ”
Lin Yanchao didn't like it in his heart, and said lightly on his face: "Please Huang Xiancheng lead the way." ”
"Yes, prepare the car immediately."
Lin Yanchao said: "No, Huang Xiancheng, you sit on the official's car, and the official has something to ask you." ”
Huang Xiancheng is also in his forties, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but sweat on his forehead and said, "Yes, Sima." ”
Huang Xiancheng was careful all the way to talk to Lin Yanchao about the customs.
When they arrived at the embankment, everyone climbed the slope to the top of the embankment, but when they saw that the Yellow River was still far away, even if they were so far away, they could hear the sound of the river waves splashing.
And looking back, the county seat of Yucheng County behind Lin Yanchao was like being in a well.
The embankment is high and the city is low, the so-called hanging river on the ground is like this, seeing this scene Lin Yanchao was faintly worried in his heart, this is a sharp sword hanging on the people of the whole house, and it is also Lin Yanchao's body.
Seeing Lin Yanchao's unhappy expression, Huang Xiancheng said cautiously beside him: "Sima, we are now standing on the south embankment, and opposite is the north embankment of Shanxian County, Shandong, also known as the Taihang embankment. The south embankment was built by Pan Hetai, the governor of the river, in the seventh year of Wanli. This embankment is also known as the remote embankment, the use of the remote embankment, is about the water potential, take it easy to keep also. Therefore, the embankment is far away from the river, and it is tall and strong. ”
Lin Yanchao asked: "Last year's flood, there were two breaches in Shandong, three breaches in Henan, three in Guide Mansion, two in Xiayi County, and one in Yucheng County. ”
Huang Xiancheng heard the words and said: "Back to Sima, there is a saying that the person who controls the embankment, if the left embankment is strong, the right embankment is injured, and if the left and right are strong, the downstream is injured." In the seventh year of Hongzhi, Liu Zhong Xuangong (Liu Daxia) built the Taihang embankment, Cao, Shan Zhu County, down to Xuzhou, 360 miles, the Taihang embankment was built, and the north embankment of Shandong can be said to be no big problem. ”
"Besides, we are upstream of Kaifeng Mansion, which is the governor's station, where the provincial capital is located, and the river workers need not be said much, so the left and right embankments are strong upstream, and we are injured downstream. Yu Sima asked, and the lower officials didn't know whether this was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster. ”
Seeing that Huang Xiancheng replied fluently, Lin Yanchao nodded and asked again: "Then in your opinion, there is not the slightest human disaster?" ”
Huang Xiancheng couldn't help but feel tight in his heart when he heard this.
