"Niangniang, you seem to be a little biased when you speak, although the minister does not deny your intelligence, but this is a political matter after all! Niangniang is a female streamer, what can you say!"

"Oh, may I ask who this middle-aged man who looks like a frog, who are you?" Lingxi glanced at the man and said disdainfully.

Luo Fang frowned, very unhappy in his heart, but Lingxi is the imperial concubine after all, and everyone knows that she is deeply favored by Chengzong, and Chengzong is watching from the sidelines, even if he is insulted, he can't say anything, so he can only arch his hand and say: "If you return to Lingxi Niangniang, the minister is the secretary of the ministry, Luo Fang." ”

"Oh, the official is still in the book, then there is nothing for you to do here for the time being, you go while cooling off first. Lingxi glanced at him and waved him to step aside.

"Where are the Household Department Books and the Ministry of Industry Books?" Ling Xi asked, looking at the people below.

"Minister, the head of the household is still the peak of the book. ”

"Minister, Wei Qiang, Secretary of the Ministry of Industry. ”

After the two ministers heard this, they stood up and arched their hands and said, Hou Feng, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, always seemed to have a smile on his face, and he looked like a good old man, while Wei Qiang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, had bright eyes, but his face was a little gloomy, and he looked like a calculating person.

"Oh, it's just the two of you! Ministry of Works, let me ask you, when was the flood control levee in the Yellow River built? and how often was it renovated? I read the report before, saying that there was a warning before the flood came, why didn't the dams be strengthened along the river in turn?" Lingxi looked at Na Si Wei Qiang and asked.

"This?" Si Weiqiang had a cold sweat on his face, not knowing how to answer, and then rolled his eyes, instead turning his eyes to look at Wang Bichi, the right minister on the side.

That Wang Bichi also snorted coldly, stood up, and said to Chengzong: "Your Majesty, this water conservancy construction is a matter of national importance, but it is a little unreasonable for Concubine Lingniang to ask like this!"

Chengzong listened to Lingxi's question, but he also wanted to know, but what Wang Bichi said also made some sense, how could the harem interfere in political affairs? ”

"Hmph. Lingxi turned his head and glanced at Chengzong coldly, and said: "Since this old man said that this is a matter of national affairs, and I am also a member of this country, why don't I have the right to ask?

"This?" Chengzong frowned, he didn't know how to answer, in fact, he still hoped that Lingxi could say some good ideas, but after all, Lingxi was a person from the harem, and as an emperor, it was not easy for him to open his mouth.

"But after all, this is all a matter decided by men, Niangniang should go back to the harem to be a good female celebrity, don't worry about it, the ministers should share the emperor's worries and deal with the flood. Wang Bichi said disdainfully.

"But if you really have the ability, why is the emperor so worried?" Lingxi sneered and said.

"Listening to Niangniang, it seems that we already have a good idea, but if we all listen to it, it may not be a good opinion. Zuo Xiang Aike, who had been silent, smiled with a pinch of his white beard.

"Okay! Since that's the case, then Lingxi, you can say it!" This Ai Ke is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, and he has a lot of seniority, and Chengzong is very happy when he hears that he agrees, and hurriedly says.

Lingxi nodded, then pointed to Wei Qiang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and said, "Answer my question just now." ”

Seeing this, although he was reluctant, he had to answer truthfully, and said: "This flood control dam was built during the reign of the first emperor, and it was only renovated once every four years. ”

Lingxi looked at his obscene appearance and said with a cold smile: "The Yellow River has a flood season every year, but you only renovate the embankment once every four years? And you say that you don't know that there is a precursor, it's just nonsense! This Shanxi prefect wrote clearly on this note, and three months ago he wrote to inform you that the dams in Shanxi have traces of damage, but you say you don't know?"

"This, this, the emperor Mingjian! The minister did not receive the letter from the Shanxi prefect, and the minister was wronged!" Si Weiqiang's face changed when he heard this, and then he hurriedly kowtowed and explained.

"Hmph, this flood started in Shanxi, maybe the Shanxi prefect wanted to shirk his responsibility. Right Prime Minister Wang Bichi said coldly.

"Okay, now that the prefect of Shanxi is not here, he can't confront him face to face, so I can't rule out this possibility!" Lingxi smiled: "Then let me ask you again, why did the Shanxi flood not affect Henan in a short period of time, you have enough time to send people to repair the embankments in Henan, especially in Kaifeng, why you still haven't done anything?"

"Niangniang, wronged! The minister had already sent someone to repair the embankment in the Kaifeng area, but, just. Si Weiqiang was submissive, but he didn't say it.

"Just what? Say it quickly!" Chengzong was also extremely angry after hearing this, and this flood was the strictest in Kaifeng, Henan, so he scolded.

"It's just that the manpower and materials at that time were not available, and even if the minister wanted to renovate, he couldn't do anything!" Si Weiqiang was drunk by Chengzong and hurriedly said.

"Hey, Master Si, what do you mean by this, but according to what you said at the time, I assigned 3,000 craftsmen and 30,000 taels of silver for you to renovate the Kaifeng embankment, but the emperor knows, why do you want to say that the materials and manpower are not enough!"

"Yes, that's true, I approved it. Chengzong also nodded.

"Hmph, that's a good point, three thousand craftsmen and thirty thousand taels of silver, but you don't know, the emperor, those three thousand people are not so much craftsmen as homeless people! And the thirty thousand taels of silver, up to now, there are still 10,000 taels that have not reached the account of the Ministry of Industry!" Si Weiqiang also said angrily.

"Oh, so there's something wrong with the executor?" Lingxi said, nodding.

At this time, the official secretary on the side was also in a hurry, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has been wronged! Although this personnel appointment and dismissal was written by the minister, it was all approved by the emperor!"

"Oh, what do you mean, all of these qiē are the emperor's fault?" Lingxi asked with a grin.

"Huh?" Chengzong was also stunned, not knowing what to do.

"The ministers don't dare!" The ministers in the palace hurriedly knelt down and said when they heard this
