Chapter 179
Feng Su'er was taken aback, and said: "Master Zhong, there is absolutely no need for you to accompany me to watch the night here, I will just tell you the result tomorrow morning."

Zhong Da shook his head and said with a smile: "This is Yantong City under my jurisdiction. If you don't care as much about it as Madam, how can you claim to be the parent officer of Yantong City?"

Feng Su'er was moved by his words, she nodded and said, "If I encounter danger, I will protect Lord Zhong."

Just as Zhong Da was about to say no, the scene of Feng Su'er capturing the pawn who wanted to escape appeared in his mind, and he swallowed it abruptly.

"Then there is Mrs. Lauvon."

Sure enough, Feng Su'er kept her promise, and she and Zhong Da took turns watering the white stones all night long.

There was no water on the way, so she went to fetch several buckets of water, which made Zhong Da ashamed.

When the morning sun rose, both of them were so exhausted that they were about to fall asleep.

Feng Su'er said: "Let's rest for a while before continuing."

It was said to take a break, and when the two woke up, it was already time for the people who built the embankment to arrive.

Awakened by human voices, Feng Su'er rubbed her eyes and sat up from the ground.Accidentally glanced at the white stone, and hurriedly woke up Zhong Da who was still sleeping.

"Lord Zhong!"

Zhong Da opened his eyes in a daze, and reluctantly said: "Mrs. Feng, what's the matter..."

"Look at these stones!" Feng Su'er pointed to the white stone that had turned gray in appearance.

When Zhong Da saw it, he regained consciousness from his drowsiness, and asked, "What is that outside the stone?"

Feng Su'er picked up the hammer and tapped it with a little force, and the gray-white lime rustled down, which was in sharp contrast to the hardness that could not be knocked off yesterday.

Although these limes are very thin, they do exist.

"This..." The two looked at each other.

This white stone cannot withstand the erosion of the river!
It was okay before, it just peeled off a little bit. After a while, the lime has fallen too much, and the foundation of the embankment will be completely loose!

"Gong Hongfeng has such a vicious heart!" Zhong Da said bitterly.

When the dam was built and officially put into use, and then collapsed after a while, one can imagine what kind of stormy condemnation Zhong Da would receive!
At that time, people will not suspect those white stones, but will feel that Zhong Da used bad materials for the embankment to enrich himself, or let people cut corners, which led to the collapse.

At that time, even if Zhong Da is covered with mouths, he can't explain it clearly!And Gong Hongfeng, what does this have to do with him?He donated materials and sent people to help, no matter how you look at it, they were all people who were kept in the dark by Zhong Damon.

"There is no other way, all the embankments made of this kind of stone will have to be demolished and rebuilt." Zhong Da clenched his fists and said.

Although distressed, Zhong Da was glad to have discovered it early.

Fortunately, General Gong is willing to contribute his soldiers, so there should be time.

Zhong Da looked at Feng Su'er seriously, and said: "If Mrs. Feng is not careful, I am afraid that I will suffer innocent injustice, and the people of Yantong City will also suffer. From now on, if Mrs. Feng is useful, just open your mouth. Make an effort to do your best.”

Feng Su'er smiled and said: "I came here at the order of His Majesty, this is what I should do, Master Zhong need not be so polite."

Zhong Da kept this feeling in his heart, and changed his attitude towards Feng Su'er again. Now he no longer regards her as a female official who relied on Chu Yiqing's relationship to achieve political achievements.

……

In front of everyone, Zhong Da revealed Gong Hongfeng's sinister intentions to the public, adding to his guilt.

Some people in Yantong City moved here from Guanghe City, and they couldn't bear Gong Hongfeng's harsh government, so they left their hometown with their families.

Therefore, they didn't have the slightest favor for Gong Hongfeng, and agreed with Zhong Da one after another.

Little General Gong felt complicated when he heard that his uncle was so unloved by the people.

He has never thought about these things before, but he also knows that if an official is an official and the people under him complain, he must not be a good official.

As they talked, everyone noticed the existence of Little General Gong, and they couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed when they saw him help repair the dam in disgrace, but they were talking ill of his uncle.

"Little General Gong, he is him and you are you. Although Gong Hongfeng is not very good, we have seen your hard work these days."

"Yes, yes, don't worry, if there are officials above who want to impeach you, we will speak for you."

Little General Gong couldn't tell what was going on in his heart, his nose was a little sore, and he said, "Thank you, folks."

At this moment, he was very glad that he had never participated in Gong Hongfeng's decision-making.

Feng Su'er didn't stop the crowd from showing their affection to Little General Gong, she waited for the crowd to disperse, she stepped forward and said to Little General Gong: "Whether you can stay or not depends on your performance."

……

The officials rushed to several barracks one by one with the soldier talisman on horseback, leaving a small half of them to guard, so as not to be taken advantage of by Xiao Xiao, and the rest of the soldiers were taken away.

Because Feng Su'er specifically told him to remember to let them bring their own dry food, it took a little time, but the journey was not far, and they took 5000 people to Yantong City in two days.

With so many people, it is impossible for everyone to ride a horse, so some soldiers on horseback followed the officials and ran ahead, about 5000 people.

Feng Su'er and General Gong personally greeted these people and settled them down.

There are no such names as provinces and cities in Luo Kingdom, and they all become XX cities. Yantong City is not a prosperous place, with a vast land and few people, so it is not a big problem to settle tens of thousands of people.

When everyone arrived one after another, the officials returned to Guanghe City to perform their official duties.

Originally, he was sent to manage Guanghe City, but Gong Hongfeng did not agree with him to intervene. Now that Gong Hongfeng has fallen, the huge Guanghe City has fallen into his hands.

Feng Su'er originally wanted to manage Guanghe City by herself, but Luo Chuchu and the others didn't give her a formal appointment at that time, so it was more legitimate for her to be an official.

Having said that, Gong Hongfeng was imprisoned in Yantong City Prison, and his wife, concubine and children were separated from him. Because of Feng Su'er's pity, life was better than Gong Hongfeng's.

The dry grass under him can't block the coldness of the land, especially in a place like a prison.

Gong Hongfeng sat on the dry grass with a gloomy expression.

It's all because he didn't expect to be caught at the time. Although he set a trap for Yantong City, it would take a long time for the trap to take effect.

But he had no choice, because whether it was waiting for the dam to collapse or waiting for Wen Renyin to rescue him, it would take time.

With Yan Wenmao's difficulty, I'm afraid he needs to wait patiently.

……

After discovering the problem with the white stone, Zhong Da ordered that no matter if it was a newcomer or someone who had come to help before, an additional process should be added, that is, to try pouring water on the stone every day.

You learn a lot from a fall, and you can't fall down on the same problem for the second time.

It is not useless to do so, but it helped to screen out some poor quality stones, which can be made up in time.
