He stepped forward arrogantly and gave Yang Shixun a warning look. Yang Shixun had no choice but to shut his mouth in fear.
Chu Xuanchen looked at Zhang Shifan and said coldly, "What, Lord Zhang, do you think this is Wang's problem alone?"
Zhang Shifan sneered. "Of course not. It's just that I'm stupid and can't think of a good way to stop the flood. His Highness is the imperial envoy and the main force in the flood control effort. I'm sure he's already thought of a foolproof plan. Then I won't say anything more. "
Hmph! He couldn't wait to cause trouble. How could he let someone else come up with a plan for Chu Xuanchen?
If the flood control was successful, Chu Xuanchen would be the biggest contributor. He wouldn't let Chu Xuanchen get the credit.
As soon as Zhang Shifan spoke, his people all shook their heads.
"My apologies, His Highness. I really can't think of a way. His Highness is both brave and smart. He's smarter than us. I'm sure he can think of a good way to stop the flood. "
"That's right, His Highness. If we had a way, we would've stopped the flood long ago. We still have to rely on His Highness to stop the flood! "
Chu Xuanchen's face was filled with murderous intent when he saw the officials trying to shirk responsibility and shake their heads.
They didn't want to cooperate with him at all.
He was a general. His strength was in war, killing enemies, and arranging troops. He hadn't done any research. How could he possibly know how to stop the flood?
Zhang Shifan was obviously making things difficult for him.
At this time, Zhang Shifan said proudly, "Your Highness, this official knows that your strength lies in fighting wars, not in controlling the flood. But don't you have a lot of people around you? How come you don't even have someone who knows how to stop the flood? Why are you asking us for help? If you don't have anyone, I suggest you go back to your residence and enjoy life in the capital. This place isn't suitable for you! "
"That's right, hahaha …" The other Zhang officials all laughed sarcastically.
"Who says His Highness doesn't have anyone who knows how to stop the flood?" A cold female voice interrupted the officials' laughter.
Everyone turned around in shock and saw Yun Ruoyue walking in with a domineering aura surrounded by the crowd.
Her aura was fierce, her gaze was cold, and her body emitted a strong sense of sharpness.
Seeing Yun Ruoyue walk in, Chu Xuanchen immediately felt reassured.
He knew that she must have a way. If he had known, he would have asked her directly instead of asking this group of good-for-nothings.
Zhang Shifan immediately mocked, "Yo, The Princess of Li, what do you mean? Do you know how to control the flood?"
"It's just a small flood. What's so difficult about that?" Yun Ruoyue said coldly.
"The Princess of Li sure talks big! You're a woman, and you know how to control the flood? Then this official is all ears. I want to hear what good plan you have! "Zhang Shifan mocked.
Yun Ruoyue said, "Flood control is nothing more than a combination of blocking and dredging. But time is of the essence now, and we can't block it in time. We can only spread it out! "
"Heh, then tell me, how do you plan to spread it out?" Zhang Shifan asked again.
"Spread it out. It's very simple, but I'm afraid that you won't understand if I tell you."
"Just tell me. This official has been on the battlefield for decades. It's impossible that I can't understand a small flood control plan," Zhang Shifan said.
"Alright, my plan is to dig ponds. Dig a lot of ponds!" Yun Ruoyue said.
"What? Dig ponds? The Princess of Li, can you stop joking around? You think that just digging ponds can stop the flood? You're just messing around! "Zhang Shifan said angrily.
Yun Ruoyue looked at him with ridicule, "I told you that you wouldn't understand, but you still want me to say it. Your Highness, my plan to control the flood is to dig ponds. Time is of the essence, so I'll have to trouble your Highness to start gathering people. We'll go down the dam and dig ponds together. "
