Chapter 646: I Don't Mind
Soon after the ingots left, the cadres of the Ministry of Industry hurriedly came to the Ganlu Palace.
"What are you doing today?" asked Li Shimin directly.
The Ministry of Industry Shangshu hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Back to Your Majesty, today's rain is equivalent to a rainstorm." But the clouds are getting thicker, and I am afraid that the rainy season is also coming. The Ministry of Industry has sent people to various places to measure the amount of rainfall. ”
"How much rainfall?" Li Shimin didn't know much about.
"Returning to Your Majesty, it is the amount of rain in an hour, which is used to calculate the bearing capacity of rivers, lakes and seas. "The Ministry of Industry Shangshu described it as simply as possible.
Li Shimin seems to understand whether he understands or not. However, he obviously didn't want to learn how to measure, so he asked, "What is the result of the measurement?"
"Back to Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's a flood, it's coming. The Ministry of Industry Shangshu said cautiously.
"Sure enough, it's coming. Li Shimin sighed and asked, "Can you stop the project you started last year?"
There was a sudden silence in the Ganlu Palace, and the officials of the Ministry of Engineering did not speak. When Li Shimin saw them like this, he became angry and shouted: "Can you stop it, or can't you stop it, you don't know it yourself?"
"It should be, right?" the Ministry of Works, as the boss of the Ministry of Works, had to answer hard.
"Is it okay?" Li Shimin suddenly became angry when he heard this ambiguous answer.
When the officials of the Ministry of Industry heard His Majesty ask in such a calm tone, they immediately understood that His Majesty was really angry.
"Returning to Your Majesty, according to the minister's measurements, I have repeatedly done several tests. There is no problem with Weishui and Luohe for the time being. But if this rain continues so heavily and does not stop after three days, I am afraid that Weishui and Luohe will be in danger. Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Industry hurriedly said.
"What about the Yellow River?" Li Shimin was most concerned about this matter. For as long as he can remember, the Yellow River has always burst its banks every year, either here or there. The Yellow River is overflowing, and both sides of the river are simply hell on earth, with barren fields, countless casualties, and the country directly hit hard.
"This kind of rain lasts for two days at most. A young official from the Ministry of Industry stepped forward and said boldly.
"You go back first, continue to think of a way, if there is anything, come here immediately to report. Li Shimin knew the situation, and did not delay these people, and after ordering them to go back, he immediately asked people to notify the military department and the household department. When such a heavy rain does not stop, the military department will definitely transfer troops for flood control, and the household department will be responsible for relocating the people.
This kind of thing, not afraid of 10,000, just in case.
This rain has made many people happy, and it has also made many people feel like they are facing a great enemy.
In the Ganlu Palace, the busy and busy ministers who came and went were all because of this rain.
After Jiang Chengzi left, he dressed up and prepared to go out. As soon as she walked to the front yard, Jinyun came and brought seven Jiangfu guards to stand at the door. The green hat, the green robe, stood at the door.
"Jinyun?" Jiang Chengzi was very surprised.
Jinyun took a step forward and said, "The matter is urgent, Gongzi asked the eight of us to protect the girl closely." ”
"He. Jiang Chengzi sighed, but didn't say anything after all. Li Ke also knew that someone was fishing in troubled waters, and wanted to know his strength, but he was more worried about her safety, so he directly sent Jinyun and the others over.
"Don't worry, girl, I bought these things. Jin Yun hurriedly said.
"Bought?" Jiang Chengzi glanced at those people, it was clear that they were the Jiang Mansion guards, but they were not the ones who came out to protect her before.
"They've always been ready to protect the girl. A year ago, he began to disperse into Chang'an in various capacities. The channels are complicated, and even if you check, there is no trace. Jinyun said.
Jiang Chengzi nodded and said, "Since that's the case, you choose two people to go out with me with you." ”
"Yes. Jinyun turned and pointed to the two people in the front row.
Jiang Chengzi asked the porter to take the other five people to Orchid Garden to arrange for Ah Bi, and she went to Chai Mansion in the rain. The old housekeeper of Chai Mansion was taken aback, and hurriedly let Jiang Chengzi in, and said, "Girl, the king of Shu and the second prince are discussing in the study, do you go to the study or go to the Linshui Pavilion." ”
She came to Chai Mansion several times, almost all of them went to Linshui Pavilion. The housekeeper also knew that she had a good relationship with Mr. Na Dugu Sinan and Wang Xie.
"Since the king of Shu has something to discuss with my brother-in-law, I will go to Linshui Pavilion to listen to the qin. Jiang Chengzi thought of leaving yesterday, but he didn't have time to say a word to his father, and he didn't know what his mood was after he learned that his mother might be in this time and space yesterday.
"Oh. Mr. Linshui Pavilion Wang is not there. The housekeeper hurriedly said.
"Haven't you gone down to the morning court yet?" Jiang Chengzi asked.
"The early dynasty went down, but Mr. Dugu didn't come back. The one who led the horse came back first, saying that Mr. Dugu said that he went to Ruyi Fang to order jewelry. The butler replied.
Jiang Chengzi let out an "oh", thinking that his father must not be able to sit still, and he was afraid that he would go to Ruyi Fang to see those jewelry in person to further determine whether these jewelry were from his mother. It's just that now this Chang'an City is surging, and I don't know who is about to move in the dark. Although Dad has handed over all the wealth of the Dugu family to the imperial court, there is no danger in theory, but he is close to her after all.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chengzi became worried, so he asked the housekeeper: "Do you know where the prince has gone?"
The housekeeper knew that this Wang Gongzi was referring to Wang Xie Gongzi, a young man who protected Mr. Dugu, so he said, "Wang Gongzi has ordered jewelry with Mr. Dugu." ”
Wang Xie really protected his father.
Jiang Chengzi's heart was a little settled, and he said to the housekeeper: "Since Mr. Dugu is not here, I will go to the study to see my brother-in-law and the king of Shu." ”
"Yes. "The butler led the way.
Jiang Chengzi was holding an umbrella alone, only to feel that the rain was a little heavier. She couldn't help but look at the sky, it was full of dark clouds, all large areas of cumulonimbus clouds.
The rain showed no signs of stopping, but only getting heavier. It seems that the drought was swept away at the same time as the rainy season came. As soon as the drought eased, the imperial court was about to be busy fighting floods again. This year's Datang is really eventful.
"Girl, what's wrong?" asked Jinyun, who was walking on the side, in a low voice.
"I'm afraid the rain has passed. Jiang Chengzi replied slowly.
"It's too much. Jinyun also responded.
Jiang Chengzi didn't say anything else, and went to the study with an umbrella. When she arrived, Li Ke and Chai Lingwu were reclining under the wide eaves of the courtyard of the study, and fruit wine was placed on the desk.
"Ah Zi, I thought you would come here for breakfast. Li Ke waved the wine glass in his hand and said, "Mr. Dugu's winemaking skills are not bad." ”
Jiang Chengzi took the wine glass, took a sip of peach wine, pulled the futon and sat down, and said, "I originally thought to come early in the morning, but before I went out, Zhang Jia came." ”
"What?" Chai Lingwu was surprised.
Li Ke "hummed" and said, "He will take advantage of loopholes, in order to go to the sixth room, he won't even go to the early dynasty." ”
"Yes, he didn't go to the early dynasty. Jiang Chengzi was reminded by Li Ke that he remembered that today was not Xiu Mu, and as the general of Zuotunwei, he should have been in the last early dynasty, but he did not go.
"Why is he going to your mansion?" asked Chai Lingwu.
Jiang Chengzi didn't answer, but asked Li Ke: "You and your brother-in-law have all said it?"
"Well, I said. Li Ke nodded.
"Zhang Jia came to me and said the same thing. He had previously given an order to add fuel to the fire in the affairs of Jiannan Province and Shannan Province. After that, he analyzed it and came to the same conclusion as we said last night. Jiang Chengzi said very seriously.
"Someone is fishing in troubled waters, looking at our strength?" Chai Lingwu was also surprised.
"To be exact, it depends on the strength of the King of Shu. Jiang Chengzi looked at Li Ke.
"Who could it be?" Chai Lingwu asked.
Li Ke and Jiang Chengzi glanced at each other, but neither of them spoke. Chai Lingwu analyzed it by himself and said, "Actually, it's not difficult to analyze. It's just a few people. ”
"Oh, what does Ah Wu think?" asked Li Ke with interest.
"Hey, things in this world are just a sharp word. Whoever gains is the most suspicious. Chai Lingwu touched his head and said embarrassedly, "I am a businessman, from the perspective of a businessman, the person who wants to spy on your strength is the one who is afraid that you will harm his interests." So, first of all, your enemies, such as the eldest grandson who have always wanted to get rid of you, and the group of upstarts, you are alive and will always be the expectation of those famous families. If the upstart led by the eldest grandson is watching your strength, it is actually to see if you have colluded with the old nobles, after all, you have a side concubine who is the Xiao family, and the main concubine you want to marry is the Hongnong Yang family. ”
"It's really troublesome. Li Ke shrugged.
Chai Lingwu pursed his lips with contempt and said, "Come on, don't be narcissistic." ”
"That righteous brother thinks, if it wasn't for the eldest grandson's doing, who else could it be?" Jiang Chengzi wanted to see if Chai Lingwu's analysis was consistent with his own.
Chai Lingwu sighed and said, "You are my best friends, I just said it." Otherwise, I absolutely cannot say this kind of thing that provokes the relationship between brothers, fathers and sons, and monarchs and ministers. ”
When Jiang Chengzi heard this, he already understood that Chai Lingwu's analysis was inseparable from his own and Li Ke's analysis. Sure enough, Chai Lingwu said to Li Ke: "I'll just talk about things, analyze and analyze, don't think about it." ”
"No, it won't. Li Ke's expression and tone were calm.
"In the future, even if it is, don't be depressed. After all, they are in their position, and there is nothing wrong with doing so. Chai Lingwu began to give Li Ke a vaccination.
After experiencing the previous life in which his father treated him as a chess piece, Li Ke was very calm. He glanced at Chai Lingwu and said impatiently: "Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, have you really been in Pingkangfang for a long time? ”
"you. Chai Lingwu flew towards Li Ke with a chess piece.
Li Ke gently stretched out his hand and sandwiched it between his fingers, Chai Lingwu did not continue to make trouble, but sat upright, and said: "If it weren't for the new nobles such as the eldest grandson family, then it might be Your Majesty today." After all, you are a prince who is a concubine, and you are still so good, and you are still good friends with the prince. Ahem, it's normal for him to suspect that you have ulterior motives. After all, as the king of a country, he wants to ensure that the country is stable. Then, the heirs should be cautious in this regard. ”
"Well, you have a point. Li Ke nodded.
Jiang Chengzi also nodded, and Chai Lingwu hurriedly said: "There is no evidence for this, let's speculate." It is also possible that it is not His Majesty, but the Crown Prince. You say you have no intentions, but who can believe it? He wants to believe you, what if you hide your strength and wait for the time to be ripe to replace you? Therefore, it is normal for him to test you. ”
"Hmm. Li Ke nodded casually and knocked the chess piece he had just caught on the chessboard.
"Hey, even if it's them, don't be discouraged. Chai Lingwu was very afraid that Li Ke wouldn't be able to think about it, so he couldn't help but emphasize.
Li Ke raised his head slightly, and said with a look of disgust: "Don't mother-in-law, I understand the reason." ”
"Besides, it is also possible that the enemy country is doing it in order to cause rift between your fathers and sons and brothers, destroy unity, and disintegrate your strength. Chai Lingwu said again.
"It's not impossible. Li Ke knocked another chess piece and played chess with himself.
"I'm done analyzing. What about your opinions?" Chai Lingwu asked.
"Check. Li Ke lost a word.
"The evidence speaks. Jiang Chengzi said.
"I'm stupid, can you make it clear? For example, what does the Xiao family do?" Chai Lingwu got anxious.
He actually had enough brains, but in front of these two people, he always seemed stupid. Just now Li Ke said that there is a situation in the Xiao family's situation, and someone may frame the Xiao family to spy on him, so he can analyze so much. If it were him, he would definitely not have thought of such a thing as fishing in troubled waters.
"Flies don't bite seamless eggs. Xiao must have thought about dealing with Ah Zi, so he would be used. They're also not clean. Li Ke said lazily.
"So, you still have to deal with them?" Chai Lingwu asked.
"Because I'm so pinched, the Xiao family is really ridiculous. Li Ke sneered.
"Zhang Jia said, don't make a move for the time being, Shannan Dao, Jiannan Dao, he came. Jiang Chengzi said.
"He?" Li Ke was not very happy.
"Let's leave it at that. It's up to him to make the first move. Moreover, His Majesty asked him to assist the prince in investigating this matter thoroughly, and the strength of the Zhang family in Shu should not be underestimated, so it was logical for him to come. Jiang Chengzi said very calmly, and his eyes were also very stable.
Li Ke looked at her quiet appearance, and looked at him calmly and said, and understood that she was talking about not to be rash.
Hey, who made himself a good man who listened to his daughter-in-law.
So, he lowered his eyes and said lazily: "Since this is the case, then Ah Wu should not be mixed and run your business well." ”
"Good. Chai Lingwu agreed.
"I've had people check the tomb and the origin of those items. I'm sure there will be a clue soon. Li Ke finally sat up straight.
"Then what if it is His Majesty and the Crown Prince, what should you plan?" Chai Lingwu thought about it, but he was still very worried about this matter.
Whether it is the eldest grandson clan or the empire, they are all enemies, and it is very simple to deal with the enemy. But if it's his father or brother, this kind of thing is very worrying.
"Tell me about them. Li Ke didn't have an answer, but he knew very well that if it was really them who were aggressive and cornered, he wouldn't mind replacing him directly. In this life, he only came for Ah Zi. In the last life, the person he owed the most was Ah Zi.
"Well, it's a very difficult thing to do. Chai Lingwu sighed.
Li Ke smiled and said, "What's so difficult to do? It's you, I want to ask when you and Changle became so familiar?"
