The Long River 天下长河 Episode 28

Considering that tomorrow he will be ordered to transport food and medicine to the three provinces of Chacha, the place where he will go will be plagued by epidemics, and it is not convenient to take his mother with him, so he plans to send her back to his hometown for a temporary stay. It just so happened that Yu's mother took in the fleeing girl and wanted to marry her to Yu Zhenjia, regardless of her family background or character, she was very correct.

Unexpectedly, on the wedding night in the bridal chamber, the girl mentioned that her parents died in the flood, Yu Zhenjia got up immediately after hearing the words, and said that he was the culprit of the flood, and went out with the bedding in his arms. The next morning, Yu Zhenjia hesitated for a moment to say goodbye to the girl, but he didn't expect the girl to hang herself, and he was so scared that he sat down on the ground.

Although Jin Fu is still guilty and has no intention of complaining, on the other hand, Chen Huang is aggrieved. It is obvious that he and Jin Fu are the most suffering and suffer. In the end, they end up in the shackles. Yu Zhenjia was promoted, and even Cui Weiya was able to run away. Go to Guangxi as a political envoy. Jin Fu saw that Chen Huang was in a mood, and reminded him not to forget the original intention of governing the river. One is not for the emperor, and the other is not for officials. If the millions of people on both sides of the Yellow River live well, there is no harm in being wronged.

When Chen Huang heard these words, he was as if enlightened, and expressed his gratitude to Jin Fu. After that, Jin Fu continued to wear the flail and went to the river, reminding all the river officials in disguise that if they continue to cause problems in the river embankment, a similar situation will occur. When Chen Huang thought of building a dam on the new river, Jin Fu thought it was a good idea, but it took too long, so he still supported it.

Yu Zhenjia led officers and soldiers to distribute food in a mighty manner. Unexpectedly, the whole village looked deserted and desolate, without the encirclement of the imagined people, only a few scattered people lying on the ground lingering. The old man had no food to fill his stomach, so he could only cook half a pot of white maggots. Yu Zhenjia couldn't help vomiting when he saw this. He heard that the other villages were empty, but he refused to believe it.

Afterwards, Yu Zhenjia went around many villages, but not only did he not see any living people, he even found rotting corpses, all because the flood came so fast that most of the people were submerged in their sleep. Seeing the corpses thrown into the fire, Yu Zhenjia was so sad that he sat alone beside him and wept.

Because Kangxi asked Yu Zhenjia to write a report every day, Yu Zhenjia felt shameless to live in the world, and when he was about to commit suicide to apologize, the report outside the door made him give up the idea of ​​suicide. In the end, Yu Zhenjia cut the palm of his hand with a knife, and sent the book repaired in blood to the capital, every word and every word was full of guilt and self-blame.

Mingzhu and others came to Kangxi with three stacks of reports, most of which were related to disasters in various places and Mongolian tribes. In recent years, Galdan's ambitions have grown more and more, and the only way so far is to use violence to control violence. This is the reason why Kangxi has no choice but to be belligerent. As for Gao Shiqi's selection of Yu Zhenjia's report, Kangxi took a look at the content and didn't take it seriously for him to write a blood book.

But Mingzhu still didn't forget Jin Fu and Chen Huang, and suggested to Kangxi that they should be given the order to lift the shackles. Kangxi readily agreed, but Suo'etu suddenly stopped him. Suo'etu said that Jin Fu did this to show respect to the court. After all, he should compensate for his inability to control the river. It was also because Suo'etu's words were not unreasonable, Kangxi decided to let Jin Fu continue to wear the shackles, and beat Gao Shiqi a few words by the way.

Soon Yu Zhenjia came to Xiaojiadu on an official boat for inspection. After learning about it, Jin Fu took the initiative to go to visit him, and found that he was no longer as energetic as before, and his whole person was decadent. After this disaster relief in the three provinces, Yu Zhenjia was fully aware of his mistakes, and seemed to be living in pain in purgatory.

In order to cheer up Yu Zhenjia, Jin Fu reprimanded him for not facing the problems he encountered, but only thinking of escaping. The reason why Jin Fu didn't kill Yu Zhenjia at the beginning was because he saw that he was a good official. If he was willing to let go of his reputation, he would definitely become a famous official of a generation. Yu Zhenjia mocked that he was unworthy, but Jin Fu could see that he longed for fame through the ages, otherwise why would he risk his life to protect the embankment.
