The strength of the two of them alone is not enough.
The Qingzhou flood is a serious matter and requires the decision of the governor before we can know what countermeasures to take.
The most crucial point is that if the Qingzhou flood is true, but there are no signs, the governor will have to bear the heavy pressure brought by the people's disbelief, the officials' doubts, etc.
Mr. Lin's scalp tingled when he thought about it.
This is like a single dead branch crossing a river. The river is full of waves, and the waves are too high. How can the person standing on the dead branch survive?
I'm afraid that before the water level of the Hong River rises, the governor will be punished for trying to quell the public anger.
Good intentions turned into bad consequences. I'm afraid that if the governor knew that the water level of the Hong River would rise sharply, he would think twice before acting.
If the flood is false.
The governor, who took the flood seriously, resisted the pressure and mobilized a large amount of manpower and material resources to prevent the flood. In the end, all his efforts were in vain.
At that time, the governor had to face the wrath of the royal family. Even though the governor was the son of the prime minister and the emperor's companion, he would still be demoted and punished.
But the governor chose to listen but not act.
When the water level of the Hong River rises and everything is irreversible, if you try your best to save it and stand with the people, you will gain a good reputation. Even the emperor who is far away in the capital will be concerned about this matter. Although you have done nothing wrong, you will still be praised by the emperor for your selfless dedication to disaster relief.
As a human being, we all know how to choose.
This is exactly what Master Lin is worried about and afraid of. If a flood really happens in Qingzhou, the only one who can save Qingzhou is the governor. www.jiangnanxs.com Jiangnan Literature Network
His whole family still lives in Qingzhou. He has enough money to lead his whole family to escape from Qingzhou, but this move is no different from that of a villain. Qingzhou is his home, and until the last moment, he still wants to stand together with Qingzhou.
Now, Mr. Lin was particularly suspicious that what the immortal Li had calculated was wrong. As long as he was wrong, they would not have to face such a difficult problem.
But is this possible?
None of the divinations predicted by Immortal Li were wrong.
Anyone can make a mistake in calculation, except Immortal Li.
Mr. Lin believed in Li Lezhi's ability and was sure that he was right, but it was precisely this certainty that made him smile bitterly. He looked sadly in the direction where Li Lezhi left, and told Gongsun Miaoran everything that worried him.
In this matter, only if Gongsun Miaoran takes action will there be a 30% chance of success.
Mr. Lin didn't dare to think about persuading the governor.
It's like putting someone on the fire and roasting him, making him feel caught in a dilemma. It's really because of this incident, because of a vague and uncertain thing, that the governor is charged with the crime.
Mr. Lin asked himself, he couldn't do it.
Gongsun Miaoran, who was placed high hopes by Master Lin, was conflicted. Compared with Master Lin, he understood the hidden waves and the crisis behind this matter better. If it was not properly handled and resolved, his father would be torn to pieces, attacked by political enemies, and end up in jail.
The best way is to pretend that he doesn't know about this. He has never been to Yangzhou and has never seen a wild Taoist priest.
Gongsun Miaoran wanted to turn around and leave, but before he could raise his ankle, it seemed as if a thousand-pound chain was tied around it, and the chain was connected to the Taoist temple.
His chest felt heavy, and it seemed as if all the strength in his body had been drained away. He did not have any strength left to withstand the thousand-pound chain and walk away.
Gongsun Miaoran breathed hard.
Although not close
He had witnessed the flood decades ago and had only seen the words recorded on paper. Just a short line of words and simple strokes were enough to make his heart ache. What's more, now the lives of the people in the state depended on his thoughts.
He admits that he is not a good person, but he is not a heartless and conscienceless person either.
Take a deep breath.
Gongsun Miaoran suppressed the discomfort in his throat and said calmly: "You also know how serious this matter is. It will take a long time to return to Qingzhou by water. Let me send a pigeon to inform my father of the news first."
"Secondly?"
Gongsun Miaoran looked in the direction where Li Lezhi had left and said, "We need to meet the Taoist priest again. It would be best if we could find out from him how long it would take for the flood water in the Hong River to rise, so that we can make plans early."
"Yes, Master Sun, ?[(.)]*?*???"
Hearing that Gongsun Miaoran was going to tell the governor the news, Mr. Lin breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Young Master Sun did not want to conceal the matter.
Otherwise, the governor would not believe what he said just because of him.
After a moment, Mr. Lin's heart began to lift again.
Since we have to make plans early, then... there is a tough battle to be fought later. As the richest man in Qingzhou, we must prepare supplies early to support the governor in his work.
Mr. Lin was still thinking about what supplies to prepare, but before he knew it, Gongsun Miaoran disappeared from his sight.
He stared blankly at his surroundings, at the courtyard where he was the only one left. After a long while, he walked to the front of the hall, picked up three incense sticks, lit them, and the smoke rose into the air.
He knelt on a palm-leaf fan, prayed for the gods' blessing, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner.
After Gongsun Miaoran made up his mind, he went to find Li Lezhi, wanting to know from him how much time was left before the flood in Qingzhou.
The Taoist temple was very small. He walked to the back of the hall, and after passing through the hall, he saw the side rooms behind the hall. There were two side rooms, and they were not big. He did not need to go through the hall or the alley to look for them. He saw Li Lezhi standing in the backyard, talking to a young man.
Recalling the rumors in Da'an County, this person must be Li Le's only disciple - Gao Mingli from the Gao family.
Gao Mingli's eyes were bright and full of joy. He didn't know what the wild Taoist said to make him so happy. He rarely saw people who showed all their thoughts on their faces.
When Gongsun Miaoran saw that Li Le was about to turn around, he immediately put away the expression on his face, replaced it with another face, walked forward arrogantly, and said unkindly: "Wild Taoist, I admit that you have some ability, why don't you calculate when the biggest disaster in my life will happen, huh?"
He had a smooth life, and if there was really a disaster, it would have been the flood in Qingzhou.
But Gongsun Miaoran also knew that some things were inconvenient to say out loud.
Li Le just looked at Gongsun Miaoran in surprise. Did he take the wrong medicine?
Don't you think he's a liar? A wild Taoist priest? How dare you let him calculate?
However, even if the other party asked, Li Lezhi didn't want to calculate it. He was not someone who could calculate it just because someone wanted to.
What's more, his half-baked level is still not very good.
Li Le just waved his hand and said, "Look for someone else, a regular Taoist priest."
Don't come to me.
Although this sentence was not spoken, both people present knew what was left unsaid.
Gao Mingli looked at Gongsun Miaoran curiously. This was the first time that his master had rejected someone. Then he thought about what his master had just said about going to Yangzhou to report. Could it be that the other party had said something unpleasant that led his master to prepare to go to Yangzhou?
He didn't understand what happened, but it didn't stop Gao Mingli from standing on Li Lezhi's side and not looking at Gongsun Miaoran well. ?
The moment Gongsun Miaoran looked at him, he turned his head and looked elsewhere. ?
Gongsun Miaoran had never expected that the words he had spoken earlier would become a boomerang and hit him.

He said it was fun, but he suffered the consequences. ?
Not even a day had passed. If he had known that this would be the situation half an hour later, he would have kept his mouth shut.
Gongsun Miaoran laughed twice and said, "I was blind before and didn't see clearly... Immortal Li's appearance as an immortal. Please forgive my ignorance."
This is a tongue-twisting remark.
Even Li Lezhi felt strange, not to mention him, and asked, "Have you been possessed?"
"Possessing someone else's body?" Gongsun Miaoran was puzzled.
"Nothing." In order to cover up what he said, Li Le immediately changed his words and said, "Since you are sincere, I will calculate for you. If it is not accurate, you can't blame me. After all, I am just a wild Taoist priest."
Gongsun Miaoran: "..."
It doesn't mean that those who have attained enlightenment are detached from the mundane world and are not affected by external emotions or desires.
How could this Taoist priest be so angry and hold such a grudge? He would not let go of any situation and would always use what the Taoist said before to make fun of him.
But all the consequences were caused by him, so he can only bear the consequences.
"Master, you are joking. If you are really a wild Taoist priest, then no one in this world can be called a Taoist priest."
"..." Li Le was helpless and thought to himself, I still like your rebellious look.
Now she was too polite, so polite that he couldn't refuse.
"There are always people who are better than you, and I am just a drop in the ocean..."
Fearing that Li Le would say no again, Gongsun Miaoran said, "Master Li, Immortal Li, I was wrong before."
He lifted his skirt, knelt on the ground and said, "I have offended you before, please don't take it to heart, Immortal Li."
Gongsun Miaoran lowered his head, and no one could see the expression on his face. He just continued, "If Immortal Li is willing to tell my fortune, I will pay him a hundred taels of silver."
"It's not that my master doesn't want to help you. It's that my master only does three fortunes a day. You don't believe in my master's ability, so why would my master waste the opportunity on you?"
Gao Mingli felt indignant for Li Lezhi and listened from the side. He finally understood the situation. This guy surnamed Sun looked handsome and dignified, and he must be an important person.
But I didn't expect that I was just like those ignorant people in the world, who didn't recognize the masters and were self-righteous.
If Li Le only knew what Gao Mingli was thinking, he would definitely choke up. Who was it that pointed at him and called him a liar?
Fortunately, Li Lezhi didn’t know about it, otherwise, his toes would have been broken.
"Also, you only offered a hundred taels of silver to ask my master for help. Judging from your clothes, you come from a wealthy family. Are you looking down on my master by offering a hundred taels of silver?"
Gao Mingli looked him up and down and said disdainfully that Gongsun Miaoran only took out a hundred taels of silver.
Gongsun Miaoran was embarrassed. He didn't know whether to move or not. He knelt there and said awkwardly, "One hundred taels of silver is all the private money I have."
The family is rich, and they don't have to worry about food, clothing and other expenses, but in terms of money, the younger generation can only keep a small amount, not to mention that his mother is the head of the family, so the money only comes in, not out.
Taking out a hundred taels of silver was already all his belongings.
"Well, I'll do the math for you," Li Le felt soft-hearted after hearing this, and thought the person in front of him was just a poor little thing.
According to what is written in the novel, if someone is born into a wealthy family but lives a miserable life, it must be because his family members treat him badly.
This person asked him to calculate the disaster that was about to happen in his life.
Will he be involved in a family dispute and be assassinated?
What does it mean to sharpen a sword for ten years and go through countless hardships? Just look at how I went from being a bullied little poor kid to becoming the head of a family.
All those who bully and humiliate me must crawl at my feet.
But when Li Le really calculated it, it was not what he thought.
