Chapter 1187 Solution
The old butler looked at the prince with some concern, and hesitated to speak. He felt that Shao Yunduan was too young, and was afraid that he would ruin things.
If something goes wrong, the consequence will be dozens or even hundreds of lives lost!
The Fourth Prince is too cruel.
That’s right, the old butler was certain that it was the Fourth Prince who did it!
But the prince couldn't let anyone else do this at this time. What if the news leaked out? It would be safest to leave it to Shao Yunduan.
As long as Shao Yunduan can accomplish this, the people around him and his staff will look up to him and be convinced. In the future, he will be more justified in making use of him.
It is useless for him to trust the old tutor's vision alone. Everyone must see Shao Yunduan's strength.
Shao Yunduan solemnly agreed.
So, he asked the prince for someone and continued to do this secretly.
A dam project that can cause a flood and destroy a village is no small undertaking. It is not easy to eliminate this hidden danger without being noticed by the other party and taking preemptive action.
It is obviously impossible to release the flood water slowly; the news will definitely leak out.
The Fourth Prince is already quite powerful. Once he knows that the Crown Prince has seen through his plan, will he be willing to let it fail? I'm afraid he will send someone to take the initiative at all costs, and it will be hard to defend against.
The Crown Prince's reputation is at an embarrassing point at the center of public controversy, and no further disturbances must be allowed. This matter must be handled with care.
Then we can only find another direction to discharge the flood to ensure that the discharge will not affect the normal life of the people, and will not cause any casualties.
Shao Yunduan has been busy with this matter.
Not only did they have to prepare for flood discharge, but they also had to prevent trouble. They also set up a trap to arrest several people to avoid news leaks. They were on high alert and didn't dare to be negligent at all.
After two days and two nights of flood discharge, the water level had dropped significantly and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Shao Yunduan ordered his men to open a hole on the front of the dam to release the flood.
It could no longer be concealed at this point. The magistrate of Miyun County was from the Fourth Prince's faction. How could he be unaware of it?
Then we might as well not hide it. The more flood water we release, the safer it will be. It is right to seize time at this time.
As long as we send people to guard, it will be difficult for the other party to find opportunities to do anything they want.
After the matter was safely resolved, the prince immediately sent people to arrest the magistrate of Miyun County. Such a large project in Miyun County could not be built just by saying so, and the magistrate was clueless about everything, which was a dereliction of duty.
As for whether he really didn't know, it was hard to say. Maybe he was the one who covered for the Fourth Prince.
The magistrate of Miyun County was prepared to lose his job from the very beginning. He did not make any defense, pleaded guilty, left Beijing, and soon disappeared without a trace.
Shao Yunduan arranged the aftermath and ordered people to dredge that section of the river before returning to Beijing.
The Fourth Prince is so angry that he is almost dying!
It would be impossible to keep the secret for too long after the dam was blocked. He had originally planned to give the prince a big gift before the New Year. Coincidentally, there was a fire in the prince's villa on a night of thunder and lightning, which was just the right thing to use to make an article.
If these two things happened one after another, it would definitely be a devastating blow to the prince's reputation.
He had long been fed up with this man's pretense of being virtuous and seeking fame, and had long wanted to ruin his reputation. This was definitely a great opportunity!
Unexpectedly, before he could take any action, the dam that he had managed to build with great difficulty was suddenly flooded!
All the original plans have failed!
