  Chapter 656 Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world

  Xia Houyan and Zhang Xie couldn't help but glanced at each other, they threw the sickle to the edge of the field and asked, "What's bothering Mr. Zhao?"

  Zhang Xie patted the dirt on his body, put down his trouser legs, and asked Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan to sit down first.

  There are mats and low tables in front of the thatched hut, and there is a stove beside it to burn hot water for making tea and hot wine at any time.

  Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan put down the gifts, and were not in a hurry to sit down. They waited for both of them to come forward, and then they knelt down facing each other.

She patted the wine seal away, picked up the bowl on the case table and poured the wine, but sighed: "There are too many troubles, and it is not easy to manage one place, not to mention that I have to manage two places, and they are all useless." The place to be."

  She said: "Someone told me that in the past few years, there was a natural phenomenon, and I was afraid that there would be a severe drought, so I want to build more dams in Luoyang and Yuzhou, dig wells and canals to ensure people's livelihood."

  Zhang Xie and Xia Houyan frowned, "A natural phenomenon?"

  Zhao Hanzhang nodded and said: "The weather may turn cold, and there may be drought in spring and summer, which is not conducive to crop growth."

  The two couldn't help but look at each other again. They thought that Zhao Hanzhang was going to say that the emperor has no virtue, so he was born with a vision. Ahem, they thought too much.

   "So Mr. Zhao came up to the mountain for water conservancy?"

Zhao Hanzhang didn't hesitate, nodded directly and said: "Exactly, most of the officials who knew about the construction of water conservancy went to Yuncheng with His Majesty, and the rest were scattered everywhere. Hanzhang really couldn't find a suitable candidate, so he had to go up the mountain to ask Two."

  Where did they go to Yuncheng with the emperor, most of them ran away with the King of the East China Sea, or left Luoyang with their family.

  Among the few people who ran with the emperor, Cao Ping was considered a talent in related fields, and he had been poached to Luoyang by Zhao Zhongyu.

   But Zhao Hanzhang wants to build a lot of water conservancy facilities, and he alone is not enough. If he can invite one, it counts as one.

  Zhao Hanzhang stared at the two of them.

  Seeing that both Zhang Xie and Xia Houyan were standing still, Zhao Hanzhang said: "This time, the two gentlemen are not invited to compete with General Gou or others, but really just to build water conservancy."

"Although there is no war in Luoyang now, Zhao Han is still eyeing Bingzhou. No one knows when they will send troops to the south again. If there is a severe drought as predicted, they will definitely not miss this opportunity," Zhao Hanzhang He said: "My soldiers have to be full to fight, so all food and grass must come from the people. If there are no dams and ditches, the people will not be able to feed themselves, let alone supply the Zhao family army and the Yuzhou army."

  She sighed: "The tragedy caused by the famine in Luoyang in the past two years will repeat itself. I am unwilling."

  Zhang Xie pursed his lips, he was unwilling!

  His heart was tormented like a fire, and he couldn't help turning his head to look at Xia Houyan.

  Xia Houyan lowered his head to drink, and fell silent. He didn't want to get involved in the court situation again.

  Zhao Hanzhang's eyes also fell on Xia Houyan, raised his hand to fill him with wine, and said: "I know, the two gentlemen don't want to get involved in the court again."

  Xia Houyan and Zhang Xie looked up at her.

"But if the world is in chaos, where can we really not be affected by the court?" Zhao Hanzhang said: "So it is impossible for Mr. Zhang and Mr. Xiahou to completely avoid it. If this is the case, it is better to actively join the WTO. If you can save people, you can also save yourself.”

Xia Houyan frowned and said: "If Luoyang can't accommodate us, we will move to the south. Mr. Zhao, it's not that we shirk, but we are old and in poor health. Your Majesty should not confiscate us." "What about you?

  The last sentence was not spoken, but they both understood.

  Fu Tinghan, who had been quiet all the time, looked up at him, and then saw Zhao Hanzhang frowning and said nothing, and knew that although she disagreed, she was unwilling to make the relationship with the two gentlemen deadlocked.

  He pursed his lips, put down the tea bowl and said, "So you two want to escape for the rest of your life?"

  Xia Houyan glanced at Fu Tinghan with a half-smile, and said, "Young Master Fu's provocative method is useless to us."

  Zhang Xiedu said: "If the aggressive method is useful, I will go down the mountain early."

  Fu Tinghan shook his head and said: "It's not a radical method, it's the truth. You have been evading your responsibilities. The two gentlemen are evading by hiding from the world, and Wang Yan and his like are evading by joining the world."

Xia Houyan and Zhang Xie frowned. Although they didn't like Wang Yan very much, he was a famous man with a high status, and now he died again. How could Fu Tinghan, a junior, call him by his full name so rudely? ?

  Fu Tinghan was not affected by their faces at all, and said bluntly: "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Both of you come from aristocratic families and have greater rights. Normally, the responsibility should be greater, but when you encounter setbacks, you just blindly avoid them."

"If Hanzhang invited you down to fight against Gouxi and others, it's fine if you refuse, but this time it's clearly for the people of the world. After you go down the mountain, you will directly benefit the people of Luoyang and Yuzhou. Are you self-reliant and unwilling to fulfill your responsibilities?"

  Zhang Xie's eyes widened, "Is everyone responsible for the rise and fall of the world?"

  Xia Houyan sneered directly: "When will the power of one person affect the rise and fall of the world? Let alone a man, Mr. Fu is exaggerating."

Xia Houyan didn't like Fu Tinghan, especially when he said that about him and Zhang Xie just now, so he looked at Fu Tinghan unceremoniously, and then said sarcastically: "Mr. Among them, you are in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Water, and the construction of water conservancy is your responsibility. I heard that Mr. Fu is Zhao Shijun's right-hand man. Although he was familiar with poetry and books since he was a child, he is not very proficient in poetry and books. , so many workshops under Mr. Zhao's name were created by Mr. Fu."

  Zhao Hanzhang frowned, feeling unhappy.

She has always been concerned about the status of the two celebrities, and she is hiring someone, so she is very friendly. Even if there is a difference in cognition about some things, she is willing to temporarily give in, but now it seems that this is completely useless. .

  So Zhao Hanzhang stopped suppressing his temper, and said: "Mr. Xiahou, the world is not dominated by a certain person, nor is it dominated by a family. Not only noble families and nobles have an impact on its rise and fall, but ordinary people can also reverse it."

"You look down on the strength of ordinary people, but you must know that my Zhao family army is composed of ordinary people one after another, and it is it that protects Luoyang and your life," Zhao Hanzhang said in a deep voice: "General Shi Le of Zhao Han was born in Jiehu, Once a slave, can you say that he has no influence on the world now?"

  Xia Houyan's face changed slightly.

  Zhao Hanzhang sighed, and simply pulled Fu Tinghan up, crossed his hands and said: "The way is different, we don't conspire with each other, that's all, let's pretend that Hanzhang has never been here before, this wine is given to the two gentlemen."

  She said: "Since you want to go south, sir, you should do it as soon as possible, otherwise, when winter comes, the weather will be cold and the road will be far away, making it difficult to walk on the road."

  She bowed slightly and said, "Farewell."
