Hong Xiaoduo, who was tricked into traveling to ancient times, declares:
Although having good martial arts skills and being a heroic woman who eliminates violence and maintains peace is prett...
"My lord, I understand the general situation. How about this, Your Highness, take me on a walk around the area where you plan to build the dike. Although I'm not an expert in dike and canal construction, I can do some preliminary work, such as collecting information on the soil type and the terrain around the location.
Key factors in dam site selection, assessment of topography and geomorphology, and analysis of hydrogeology.
Building dikes is a water conservancy project that benefits the country and its people. It can store water, ensure the water needs of people's lives and agriculture, regulate flow, and prevent floods.
A well-chosen site can achieve maximum benefits while minimizing the impact on the people, the government, and the environment.
Site selection must take into account geological conditions, hydrological conditions, topography, population distribution in villages, and agricultural land conditions.
How about this, Your Highness, take me on a tour in person.
"I'll have a general idea of the details first, so I can share it with someone I know who's good at it." After listening to the explanation of the blueprints, Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking and saw that the Prince Consort Yu Rui and the two officials were looking at her with surprise.
"Ahem, I'm sorry, I'm just a layman trying to teach three experts. I've only glanced at some books on this topic and have a vague recollection of what I know," Hong Xiaoduo said, feeling a little uncomfortable under their gaze.
"No, no, no, Madam Hong, you are too modest. What you vaguely remember is not just a rough outline; it summarizes the essential points of building a dike." Lord Xiao said admiringly, cupping his fists to Hong Xiaoduo.
"Yes, yes, I wonder if Miss Hong still remembers where you found that book?" Meng Sheng asked with expectant eyes.
Upon hearing this, Hong Xiaoduo breathed a sigh of relief. She pretended to think seriously for a moment and then shook her head, saying, "It must have happened a few years ago. I really can't remember."
Upon hearing this, all three people present looked regretful.
"Prince Consort, is it convenient for us to set off now?" Hong Xiaoduo quickly urged.
The words she just said were something she had researched and crammed on using her computer in her spatial dimension when she was at Prince Yi's residence.
Another one is electricity.
Since there was no electricity in ancient times, she naturally omitted that part.
She only knew this much knowledge, yet these three people still looked at her with admiration and worship, which made her feel really guilty.
"Convenient, convenient, let's go now." Yu Rui snapped out of his daze and quickly replied.
Turning his head, he saw his two colleagues and casually asked, "Would you two gentlemen like to come along?"
“Yes, yes, of course we’ll go,” Xiao and Meng nodded eagerly.
The four of them walked out, and saw that the people outside the gate had not yet dispersed, and they could vaguely hear the sounds of "plop, ouch, come again."
Looking at the crowd, the three princes suddenly remembered that the two guards were still sparring with the two children. Even though they knew that the two guards were not bad people and would not kill the two children, they still became worried.
Hong Xiaoduo stepped forward and peeked through the gap, almost bursting out laughing. These two lads were using the two guards as live targets.
The two sides sparred bare-handed.
The two children, Tianji and Tianquan, looked quite energetic, except for some dust on their robes.
In contrast, the two guards, covered in dust and dirt, looked extremely disheveled. Blood trickled from the corners of their mouths, their hair was disheveled, and their clothes were undone. They staggered and could only passively defend themselves, completely powerless to fight back.
"Why isn't it over yet? That's enough. I'm going to go on an on-site inspection with the Prince Consort and the others. If you want to come along, hurry up." After saying that, Hong Xiaoduo walked towards the carriage.
Upon hearing this, Tianquan and Tianji exchanged a glance, then stepped forward and delivered a side kick to their respective opponents' abdomens. The two burly adult men were sent flying, landing two meters away on the ground, kicking up dust. The onlookers, seeing the men who had been kicked, looked like they were in pain and quickly backed away, grimacing.
They felt that if they hadn't been standing so close, the two guards would have been kicked even further away.
What they found even more unbelievable was that after kicking the man, the two children straightened their robes, clasped their hands together, and solemnly said to the guard who was lying on the ground struggling to get up, "Thank you for your courtesy."
Then, chatting and laughing, they walked towards the carriage with the other children.
The two guards on the ground were helped up by the surrounding guards. Watching the two children walk away, they no longer cared about losing face. They only felt fortunate that if this young lady Hong hadn't come, they didn't know how long they would have been unilaterally crushed or how long they could have held on.
It's not that they're arrogant, it's that they have the ability to be arrogant!
I used to think I was pretty good, but now I realize that it was just because I hadn't met a better opponent!
"Hey, Lao Xiao, Meng Sheng, you two must be tired keeping that girl company. You should have stayed here with us and watched the fight. I have to say, they are really good at fighting." Someone teased Xiao and Meng as they approached them.
"You guys, sigh." Lord Xiao was about to tell him what he had just seen inside when he saw Hong Xiaoduo carrying two things down from the carriage, which were snatched away by the two older children and carried on their backs.
He didn't have time to say anything more to his colleagues and quickly went to greet them.
"These two aren't the type to fawn over each other, so what's wrong with them today?" an official muttered to himself, puzzled.
As soon as the prince consort waved his hand, two attendants came over, took the things that the two older children had just put on their backs, and carried them on their backs.
Then, the children took several bamboo baskets off the carriage and hung water bags around their waists.
