Huai'an is located in central and northern Jiangsu, connected to Haizhou in Xuzhou in the north and Yangzhou in the south. The government office is on the south bank of the Yellow River and near the Grand Canal port. It is the blessing of the economic lifeline of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. Huai'an is ranked as one of the four major cities, namely the hometown of Han Xin, Liang Hongyu and Wu Chengen. Shanyang has produced hundreds of Jinshi, and has also won the top scorer, the second place, the third place, the third place in Tanhua, and the first prime minister later, and was also a member of here.

Open the map of the Ming Dynasty in China and you can find that the place where the Yellow River enters the sea is Huai'an. It comes from the junction of Henan, Shandong and Jiangsu, flows from west to east, flows through the entire Xuzhou line, and then flows through the Huai Security Line, passing through the western, southern, and eastern part of Huai'an, and flows into the Pacific Ocean. This is the so-called "Yellow River seizes the Huai River". The Huai River in the Hongze Lake area has been seized by the Yellow River and caused a backflow.

This phenomenon started from the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and was no exception in this time and space. It is not difficult to imagine that the floods in Huai'an would definitely affect Yangzhou. Therefore, the first episode of the TV series "Yongzheng Dynasty" shows the scene of refugees in Yangzhou. People who are not familiar with this history say how the Yellow River affected Yangzhou? Instead, they called the screenwriter mentally retarded.

In fact, during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Yellow River and the Yangtze River were separated by only one Yangzhou Prefecture.

Open the map of the Qing Dynasty in China and compare the canal route in Huai'an with the Ming Dynasty, and you will find an obvious canal divert, from Weishan Lake to Hongze Lake. The canal of the Ming Dynasty is in the east and the canal of the Qing Dynasty is in the west. This is the result of Jin Fu's management of the river. Why manage the river? Because the Yellow River seized the Huai River, because the Yellow River blocked the Grand Canal.

Then mark the location of the Yellow River flooding and the number of times, we can see another truth. In history, the flooding of the Yellow River formed a fan-shaped area in the east of China, and the hub of the fan is in two places. Wuzhi and Xingyang in Henan, these two places are across the river. Huai'an belongs to the fan-bone area. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why the Qing Dynasty placed the river governor, one in Qingjiangpu and the other in Wuzhi.

The flooding of the Yellow River is the more frequent the feudal society is, and the great resonance of this time and space inevitably encounters this problem. To be precise, Jia Cong's first stop to Huai'an was to supervise this problem.

Qinghe, northwest of Huai'an, is on the east bank of the Yellow River. When he walked into this county town with a boat and a horse in the south, Jia Cong tried to keep a low profile and rented several houses in the Dragon King Temple to live in. Without waiting for his order, Sun Fu had already checked whether all the ceremonial guards were wrong. He would enter Shanyang tomorrow and officially handle official business.

"I don't know where the Qin family is..." Jia Cong in the house squatted on the silver box. He received a letter from Qin Zhong in Dezhou. It is logical that the Qin family should have a faster waterway than him, but they can travel as slowly as possible. There is a problem of river barriers in northern Jiangsu, so it is possible to slow down for a few days.

After doing several sit-ups, push-ups, Jia Cong washed up, and after dinner, he didn't want to disturb the local county government. He did not write to him, so he asked Qinghe's county magistrate to wait for a while. Since he arrived at his destination, Jia Cong wrote a few letters first, one to Jia She and Jia Zheng, and the other to Baochai and Qingwen.
