Chapter Ninety-Six: There Are Problems

In front of the study room of the East Palace, Zhou Mu, who was turned away again, looked at the young guard standing at the door with a calm face, "What are you doing here? Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Jiang Liu glanced at him silently, and said unceremoniously, "The horse said, these tents, our Ruo Ao clan's tent is enough, and the excess can't be used!"

"What about the Centaurs?" Zhou Mu asked, raising an eyebrow.

"My colt has something to do and is out of the palace, and now he is not in the palace. Jiang Liu replied one by one.

"Is this the kind of hospitality that the horse is? As the person in charge of the king's treasury, doesn't this official even have the qualifications to go in and take a look?" Zhou Mu heard this, his face was slightly gloomy, and he looked at the dozen or so account rooms inside that were constantly checking the account books from a distance through the red window of the study, and whispered to each other.

"Look, old Mo, this account is wrong. ”

"Well, this Suicheng's tribute is bad! 10,000 gold is missing. ”

"There seems to be a problem with this one......

One by one, whispered discussions came into his ears, and Zhou Mu could only watch, unable to stop it, his big hand in his sleeve tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened.

He came to the East Palace and waited for three days, but he didn't meet Ruo Ao Ziyan once in three days.

Hearing the movement, Mi Huang came with Si Qin and them, and when she heard Zhou Mu's words, she couldn't help but hook her lips and sneered, "The East Palace of this lady is not Lord Zhou's Zuotu Mansion, so I can't tolerate Lord Zhou being so presumptuous!"

Zhou Mu turned to look at Mi Huang, who was dressed in a wide robe, and walked slowly, with a condescending meaning, looking at him, and said coldly.

"Come on, knock this person who disturbed the rest of the princess and her baby, and blast me out of the East Palace. ”

"Yes, lady!"

Si Jian and Shocking Wind stepped forward at the same time with their swords crossed, and unceremoniously carried Zhou Mu out.

"Lady, you are so vain!"

"This princess respects her father's order so much, she needs to quietly raise the fetus, Lord Zhou is noisy in my palace all day long, what does it mean?

This charge of wanting to assassinate the heir was deducted, and Zhou Mu immediately shut up obediently.

Heroes don't suffer immediate losses.

The man with him confessed his guilt and had to leave.

After getting into the carriage, the butler of the Zhou Mansion, who had been following him, asked worriedly, "What should we do, we have collected all the account books of the counties below and the list of tributes, and we called people to help, but the horses did not see us, and let people reject all our people." ”

Zhou Mu, who hadn't spoken much in the carriage, was also thinking, "Now I'm also thinking about what to do......

He originally expected the character of the King of Chu to be a fool, so he would take this opportunity to destroy the account books of the vault and make a new set of fakes, so there would be more hands and feet that could be done in this.

The matter of the treasury was originally a secret, but it was just a thousand calculations, but I didn't expect that Ao Ziyan would also know, and suddenly inserted a bar.

*************

In the East Palace, seeing Zhou Mu leaving with the disgraced faces of others, Mi Huang pushed open the door of the study and walked in, and ordered, "Jiang Liu, can I read these account books?"

Jiang Liu thought about it, if Ao Ziyan didn't seem to say no, "Lady, whatever!"

"Well, then you call them and tell me what's going on in the vault. Mi Huang nodded, sat down on the couch casually, and looked at the dozen or so tents busy in the huge study.

After a while, Jiang Liu found Mo Lao, the oldest among them and seemed to have the most experience.

Mo Lao took the tribute accounts of several counties and counties that they had compared well in the past two days, and handed them to Mi Huang for a look, "Lady, these are the account books we have repaired, you can take a look." ”

Mi Huang took it and flipped it over casually, frowning.

Regarding the accounts, she is the same as the King of Chu.

Ignorant.

Looking at the numbers and names, she recognized them all.

gold, ten thousand, silver, one hundred thousand, one hundred cattle, one hundred horses, one hundred silk......

But I don't understand what it means.

He asked, "Is there anything wrong with these accounts?"

Even if she didn't understand, she still knew that there must be something wrong with this account, and Zhou Mu would repeat it.

Ruo Ziyan looked at that line of numbers, and the corners of his plump lips hooked slightly, "Sure enough, there is a problem, otherwise he wouldn't have burned the entire study so urgently after the disaster relief account book was lost." ”

I was smiling all the way, and I was very satisfied with my performance today.

Especially if he can really make achievements in water control, then his position as the Gong Yin of the public loser can be retained

In the black carriage of the Gongyi Mansion, Gongyi patted his son's broad shoulder and encouraged, "Do a good job, don't embarrass our Engineer's Mansion!"

"Yes, father. ”

Seeing his father's pleasant expression for the first time in the year of public loss, he couldn't help but shrink his neck.

Seeing this, Gong Yi shook his head, "Be bold, you are so cowardly, but you can't do it." ”

"Uh-huh, father. Gong Nian nodded repeatedly.

, smiled at the uneasy public loss year behind him, "Don't be afraid, follow me!"

Gong Yinian nervously rubbed his chubby hands and nodded heavily, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say." ”

"Jing'an, you will wait for the news in the hall later. ”

"Yes, Childe. ”

But at this moment, Cheng Jia smiled indifferently and said again: "King Qiqi, regarding the disaster relief that the two adults just said, Weichen has something to present to the king. ”

Seeing that it was Cheng Jia, King Chu frowned slightly, feeling a little headache.

What else is there to say about this early dynasty?

"Oh, what did Cheng Aiqing offer?" Leaning on the jade throne, King Chu asked lazily.

Ling Yin Ziban also asked curiously, he had seen Cheng Jia go to the court with an unknown thing long before he went to the court.

"It's the water scripture map made by the son of Gongyin-sama!"

Cheng Jia looked up and replied, his eyes just collided with the Huang who looked back.

One of them twisted his eyebrows and quickly moved away, and the other smiled.

What a laugh!

Mi Huang twisted his eyebrows and said.

Hearing this, the King of Chu said curiously, "Take a look at the water scripture map, Huang'er, you can also take a look." ”

"Yes, Father. ”

Mi Huang took the order and stepped forward to help the king of Chu step forward.

"Your Majesty, please look at the princess, this is the latest water meridian sand table map drawn by the prince of Gongzheng according to the current water meridian map of Gongzheng Mansion and the memory of his grandson who has been fighting in the Huai River area for many years. ”

Cheng Jia ordered Jing'an to uncover the red silk, revealing the huge water meridian sand table underneath, and explained the mountains and rivers of Chu for the ministers.

The father and daughter circled around the water meridian map twice, and found that this map was not a map, and it was huge, one zhang long and one zhang wide, and there were mountains and rivers, which was almost a sand table of mountains and rivers covering the entire Chu country, and it was very clear, and even the counties and counties were marked with large and small squares.

When he heard that it was painted by his unfortunate son, he couldn't help but step forward curiously.

The ministers approached Qi Qi and took a look, and this map had clearly marked all the Huai River areas that had been the most severely affected by the Chu State for many years, and it was clear at a glance.

Even courtiers who don't know how to control the water can see a problem or two.

"King, this picture is very good!"

Ling Yin Zi's face was overjoyed, "With this map, if we govern it, we will get twice the result with half the effort." ”

King Chu didn't understand, but Ziban said that it must be good, and nodded, "Well, it's good." ”

"Great King, now that my Chu State has defeated the Yong State, all the countries are respectful, as long as we take this opportunity to recuperate with the people, reduce the taxes of the affected counties and counties, and at the same time control the floods in various places, we will definitely be able to greatly increase the national strength. Cheng Jia said slowly.

"Flood control?"

King Chu hesitated, "This will cost a lot of money, many years!"

"Father, the flood of the Great Jianghuai River is like a fierce beast, which plagues thousands of Li people in our Chu State every year, and even attracts the covetousness of the Yong State for our Chu State, resulting in the three-year war of Chu Yong. If the Great Jianghuai River is not governed one day, and although the Yong State is destroyed, he will definitely attract the Qin State, the Ba State and even the Jin State for our Chu State one day, and he will definitely hinder his father's plan to go north to dominate the Central Plains. Mi Huang held the arm of the King of Chu and said in a timely manner.

Some things are to be said by some people.

Multiplier.

When the king of Chu heard that it was hindering his plan, his brows furrowed.

Cheng Jia glanced at the Mi Huang who spoke for the first time, and then said, "What the princess said is extremely true, this hundred years of merit, the name of the king will be famous for a hundred generations, no less than the merit of the defeat of the Jin, and it can provide the most stable rear for the defeat of the Jin Dynasty of my Chu State." It's better for Ling Gongzi to explain it. ”

Gong Yi was shocked when he heard this, and then looked at his sister-in-law, who had only been hiding in the house and doing some messy gadgets since he was a child, first retreated, and then stepped forward with Cheng Jia's push.

He boldly arched his hand and said, "Look, the Huai River is often the source of flooding! Here, if there is only two or three days of heavy rain, it can often store water to provide water for irrigation of the fields upstream, and the harvest is excellent if there is no excessive rainy season in the year. However, if there is heavy rain that year, the area will flood and affect the downstream. So we studied for a few days if we could dig a depression to form a lake here, and then build an earthen dam to stop it, and at the same time dig ditches around the lake to divert water to the farmland on both sides. ”

"It can be used to store water for irrigation upstream, and it can prevent it from flowing downstream during floods. ”

As soon as this remark came out, the public who had been in charge of water conservancy for many years immediately lit up, "Ah Nian's method is excellent, if the lake is surrounded and a dam is built here, not only will the floods in the lower reaches of the Huai River in my Chu State be eliminated, but also the grain output will definitely double, and the granary of the king's conquest of the world will also be there." It seems that being a father for so many years really underestimated you, not bad. ”

"Shisun has been fighting there for many years, and these are all mentioned by him. For the first time in his life, he was praised by his father, touching his head and smirking.

Hearing this, the public lost and glared slightly, on the top of this hall, the credit was pushed to others, and he was really a stupid son.

"Ao is a rough man who doesn't understand anything, but when I mentioned what I saw, it was all the public loser's own thoughts. Uncle Sun Ao stepped forward and said.

Ling Yin Zi looked at the second son, and bowed his head with a smile, "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king, if this plan is successful, what will I worry about if my Chu State is defeated?"

"Okay, if this thing can be done, the big plan of the widow to go north will definitely be successful!"

The king of Chu laughed.

Now in the court, he only cares about one major matter, that is, in his lifetime, he went north to attack Jin, and his father became a king with blood, and dominated the major princes.

"Solve a century-old plan for my Chu State, do you two dare to take on this great task?"

Ling Yin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the two of them and asked.

"The Ao generation has received the grace of the king, and he must be loyal to the country, but if there is a life, he will not dare to give up. Sun Shuao was the first to step forward to receive the order.

"I am also willing to lose the year. ”

In his father's blazing gaze, Gong Nian stepped forward a step later and said.

Any 100-year plan, if you can't choose a credible person, is also talking about ideals.

Yin Zi's eyes fell deeply on Sun Shuao and Gong Yinian, and finally fell on Cheng Jia with deep meaning.

It's good, it's good.

If the flood can be successfully controlled.

The hegemony of the state of Chu is in sight.

As soon as the king of Chu was happy, he began to add officials to the two of them, "Since this kid is the son of Jinyan, then give a deputy Gongzheng, and Sun Shuao will give General Long Xiang, and now that your grandfather Sun Hou has also returned to Beijing, then you can go to Wancheng! Both of them gave 100 gold and thousands of acres of fertile land. ”

Gong Yi thanked him happily, "Thank you for your love!"

"After the Lord Gong goes back, he will plan a detailed plan as soon as possible, as well as the amount of money needed to discuss, and here he will order Yin Hui to become the king together. ”

Ling Yin Zi said, "You also have to worry about disaster relief in other places. ”

The ministers promised, but Zhou Mu hesitated and said, "King, now that my country is in a tight strait, I am afraid that the matter of building a dam around the lake will be slowed down." ”

Gong Yi hurriedly said, "Lord Ling Yin means that although water control is important, there is no hurry, and my side will also be after the beginning of spring next year at the earliest, and it is important to settle the displaced people for the winter at the moment." ”

"That being said, now that the treasury is empty, it is very difficult to settle even the victims...... Zhou Mu said.

This is what the public is waiting for, and he sneered twice, "Lord Zhou also said this to Ben Yin three years ago, saying that the treasury all supports the war, so there is no money to repair the dam."

Zhou Mu's face stiffened, and he said stiffly, "The Great War and Natural Disaster, how can we expect it!"

Gong Yi seemed to smile, "Not bad, so why bother to build embankments and dams, every time there is a big flood, everyone boats on the river and swims the river together." ”

The two of them were about to quarrel again, and Mi Huang smiled slightly, "The two adults have this time to quarrel, it is better to think about how to solve the worries of the flood in my Chu country and the shortage of money for my father." ”

"Yes, yes!" The two of them received Mi Huang's smile, but for some reason they felt a pressure from a superior who was heavier than the King of Chu, and they agreed one after another.
