The emperor spoke, and the people below were naturally silent. Nangong Yi looked around and said solemnly: "A few months ago, I occasionally got a high-ranking person to mention that there will be a major drought in Dajin next year, and the drought will be severe, and millions of people will lose their homes and be displaced because of this. In order to prevent trouble, I decided to expand the grain and grass and overhaul the water conservancy. Since this year, the whole country has vigorously promoted drought-tolerant grain crops such as corn, sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkins, and sorghum, and the seeds are distributed by the state. ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other, not knowing what to say, what the emperor said was too mysterious, even if it was Qin Tianjian, this kind of thing could not be predicted, Qin Tianjian was only observing the celestial phenomena, calculating the solar terms, and formulating a calendar, and he couldn't predict these disasters at all, otherwise, the earthquake a year ago had already been predicted, how could that tragedy happen?

In this case, how did His Majesty know about it?

Could it be that some kind of magic stick has appeared? Or is it really calculated by a master? Just like Li Guoshi.

But even if it's Li Guoshi, I'm afraid he doesn't have this kind of ability.

Hoarding grain and grass, overhauling water conservancy, is not something that can be done with tens of thousands of silver, the dragon turned over a year ago, has greatly damaged the national strength, the treasury is empty, if you hoard grain and grass, build water conservancy, at least the power of the country, the heavy will shake the foundation of the Great Jin, this matter is related to the heavy dà, and His Majesty Xià only with the words of a warlock in the rivers and lakes to make this heavy decision, it is really unconvincing.

Li Guogong said: "Your Majesty, purchasing grain, building water conservancy, irrigating farmland, and preventing drought and disasters are indeed good things for the benefit of the country and the people, but the earth dragon turned over a few years ago, and the national strength was greatly damaged, and I am afraid that I have no ability to do this anymore." ”

Nangong Yi said: "Although there is some truth in what the old man said, next year's drought is destined to happen, it is related to the people's livelihood, and it is a matter of importance, even if it is difficult, you have to do it." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister wants to know who is the one who pointed out the majesty, is this person reliable? Isn't it a fine work sent by other countries to endanger my Great Jin? Another courtier questioned.

When Nangong Yi heard this, he said coldly: "According to what Qing said, am I the kind of faint monarch who can be fooled by others?" Or can you afford the consequences of a natural disaster next year? ”

The minister who asked the question saw that His Majesty was displeased, and knew that he had committed His Majesty's taboo, so he hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "The minister doesn't dare to question His Majesty's decision, but this matter is too unbelievable, so the minister thought about it a little more." ”

Nangong Yi said coldly: "You can say it if you think about it, this is very good, I'm afraid that most of you here are like you think, but you don't dare to say it, I can tell you very responsibly, I am not a faint king, I will not joke about Jiangshan Sheji, I have repeatedly confirmed that next year's drought will definitely happen, so, for the sake of the people, those things are imperative." ”

Cai Wei also stood up and said: "Take 10,000 steps back, even if there is no drought next year, hoarding food and building water conservancy will be beneficial and harmless. Moreover, although it costs money to hoard grain and grass and build water conservancy, as long as everyone works together, it may not shake the foundation of the country. ”

Today, Nangong Yi brought in the magnates and vassal kings of the court, and envoys from various countries, not only to celebrate his birthday, but also for another purpose - to call on everyone to raise donations!

The construction of the fundraising is the construction proposed to him by Cai Wei, and the process of doing it is that Nangong Yi takes the lead in donating money for next year's disaster prevention work, and the rest are free, donating more or less, as long as you do your best.

The hundreds of people here are all characters at the top of the pyramid of the Great Jin Kingdom, and the emperor is looking at it, how can they be stingy? Therefore, after Nangong Yi said that everyone would donate, they all donated generously.

The men donated silver tickets and gold, and the women donated head jewelry, each of which was worth more than a few thousand taels, and some donated tens of thousands of taels.

The money collected from these donations, together with the gifts received on the Halloween Festival, is more than one million, enough to build cisterns in several places......

Nangong Yi was very content, feeling that this Halloween Festival had not been in vain, and Cai Wei did not worry about it.

In the evening, after counting today's harvest, Nangong Yi fell on the couch and said heartily: "With these belongings, plus the silver that Cao Jinpeng sold space treasures in various countries, you can almost survive this disaster, Wei'er, you are really a noble person in my life." ”

The buns were not interested in their father's words at all, and as soon as they heard the father and the queen mother finish speaking, they couldn't wait to entangle them, humming and begging the queen mother to continue to tell them the story of "Journey to the West".

The children are gradually getting older, and the stories Cai Wei told them have upgraded from childish call stories such as "Little Tadpole Looking for Mother" and "Three Little Pigs" to "Journey to the West", one of the four famous novels.

They were all interested in the monkey in the story of the queen mother, for example, how can the monkey talk? How did it come out of the rocks? also asked Cai Wei if they could also go overseas to study art like Sun Wukong, and in the future, like Sun Wukong, a somersault cloud flew out of 108,000 miles, and also learned seventy-two changes or something.

Cai Wei had to explain to them the difference between myth and reality, but the children did not want the reality of the queen mother, in their opinion, since the queen mother has a magical universal space, and there are so many extraordinary divine powers in the space, it proves that there must be immortals, but they have not encountered it.

At the beginning, when Nangong Yi heard Cai Wei telling stories to the three little guys, he didn't care, he just thought Cai Wei was teasing them, but he didn't expect that after listening to it for a few days, he was also addicted to it, and he was looking forward to Cai Wei telling stories like children.

It hurts Cai Wei sometimes to feel that she gave birth to quadruplets instead of triplets......

After the Wanshou Festival, Liu Xi came to Shouxian Palace to bid farewell to Cai Wei, and after several months of unremitting efforts, he finally disposed of all his properties, planning to find a place where no one knew him to start a new life.

Liu Xi is leaving, Cai Wei's heart is a little sad, but for Liu Xi's future, leaving here is the best choice for him.

Cai Wei instructed him a lot of words, and gave him her sword that sharpened iron like clay, and kept it for future defense. When they were about to break up, Liu Xi hesitated for a moment and said, "Caiwei, do you know where Shen Juhua and her family have moved?" As far as I know, Shen and the others didn't go back to their hometown in Qingxian? I'm good friends with Lord Shen, so I'm curious to know where their family went. ”

Shen Luming resigned after the New Year, and originally wanted to leave the capital after resigning, but because Chrysanthemum was sick, he never made it, and it was not until Chrysanthemum's body was well a few days ago that he left quietly.

Since Liu Xi has already had a relationship with Chrysanthemum, he has always wanted to propose marriage to Chrysanthemum, but because his current identity cannot be revealed, he has been waiting, waiting for him to finish dealing with his own industry, take revenge on Huo Qi and Jing Shizi, and then leave with them.

Finally, he disposed of his own property and took revenge on Huo Qi and Jing Shizi, however, one day a few days ago, Lord Shen's family left silently, and disappeared without saying hello to anyone, which caught him off guard.

In his heart, he had already regarded Chrysanthemum as his wife, but he hadn't said it yet, his wife was gone, but he was a husband and didn't realize it, this feeling was really unpleasant for him.

Cai Wei didn't know what happened between Liu Xi and Chrysanthemum, and after hearing Liu Xi's inquiry, she said: "The Shen family, like you, wants to find a place where no one knows them and start living again, so it's inconvenient for me to reveal their whereabouts to you, since you and Lord Shen are not life and death friends, don't know." ”

Liu Xi hesitated again and again, but he still couldn't help but not tell him about himself and Chrysanthemum, ancient women paid attention to fame, in case he told the truth, Chrysanthemum was annoyed and angry, and he would never forgive him again, he would lose more than he gained......

After saying goodbye to Cai Wei, Liu Xi sent a few henchmen to find out the whereabouts of the Shen family, and took a few people from the death contract to the south of the Great Jin Dynasty.

In his previous life, he was born in the south and grew up in the south, so in his subconscious, the south is his hometown and his roots, so he must return to the south, which can be regarded as a fallen leaf and return to his roots......

Bidding farewell to Caiwei, not only Liu Xi, but also the little prince Wanyan Liang and his princess Chaoyun from Lingbei, as well as the little county lord Wanyan Chengcheng who was born to them.

The name Allure was given by Cai Wei herself, and the little girl has not had a name since she was born, so she is waiting for Cai Wei to give her a name.

Cai Wei saw that the little girl was born pink and tender, her eyes were different, Mingzhu was a lively and outgoing little girl, but Allure was a timid and shy, she had been snuggled in the arms of her father or mother, and she looked shy when she saw anyone, and her big fawn-like eyes were always foggy, looking at the strange one timidly, both curious and scared, and with a little cute little excitement, so that those who saw her couldn't help but want to love her, love her, and protect her.

Cai Wei liked this little girl very much, and said with a smile: "Otherwise, let Allure be my daughter-in-law in the future." ”

Chaoyun and Wan Yanliang knew what Cai Wei and Nangong Yi were like, and they also saw how Nangong Yi favored their daughter-in-law, so they naturally wanted their daughter to marry Jin'er.

Jin'er heard that her future daughter-in-law had settled, so she found an opportunity to secretly go to see her future daughter-in-law, and when she saw Allure, the little daughter-in-law who was less than two years old was biting her fingers and sitting in the nurse's arms.

Jin'er held her little hands behind her back and asked arrogantly, "Are you my future daughter-in-law?" ”

The little Allure looked at the arrogant prince, and timidly threw himself into the arms of the nurse, only revealing a big watery eye to look at him secretly.

Jin'er coughed, and said with a small face: "Seeing that you are quite beautiful, this prince will reluctantly marry you, but in the future, you are not allowed to eat your fingers or drool, otherwise...... Otherwise...... This prince spanks your ass......"

Since Allure was born, she has been held in the palm of her hand by her father and princess, how could she have been threatened by someone like this, seeing Jin'er's fierce appearance, and hearing that he was going to spank her ass, she was suddenly frightened and pouted her red little mouth, and her eyes were also red, and she was about to cry when she saw it.

Jin'er saw that she was in trouble, and she was afraid that the queen mother would scold him, so she hurriedly said: "Don't be afraid, as long as you don't eat your fingers and don't drool, this prince won't beat you."

"Wow......"

Before he could finish speaking, Allure had already cried aggrievedly, crying very sadly, and his beautiful little face wrinkled into an ugly little bun.

Jin'er panicked, and hurriedly said: "Don't cry, don't cry, as long as you don't cry, I'll give you candy to eat......"

Allure was wronged, he didn't listen to his persuasion at all, and still cried earth-shatteringly. In order to coax this little aunt and grandmother, he = Jin'er had to bite the bullet, temporarily put down her body, pretended to be a grimace, and pretended to be a monkey, and she was tired of sweating before coaxing her.

The little aunt and grandmother finally stopped, Jin'er wiped the sweat on her forehead, and secretly made up her mind that in the future, she would never make this little aunt angry again......

Shouxian Palace

Wan Yanliang handed over a thick pile of silver tickets and said: "Queen Mother, Xiao Wang has made a lot of silver in the commercial street of Lingbei thanks to you all these years, and now the Great Jin Kingdom is in trouble, Xiao Wang is willing to donate half of the furniture, and Xiao Wang has done his best!" ”

Their husband and wife had already discussed that they would give more silver to Dajin, but the two did not donate more when everyone donated, for fear that the donation would be eye-catching and hateful, so they deliberately carried people behind their backs and secretly asked Cai Wei to donate silver when they left.

When Cai Wei saw this silver ticket with four or five hundred thousand taels, she was moved in her heart and said: "It's rare for your sincerity, I thank you two for the emperor." It's just that it's not easy for you to make money, and there is too much silver, so how can I bear your life? In this way, this silver will be regarded as the state borrowing you, and after surviving the natural disaster next year and the national strength has eased, I will slowly return it to you. ”

Wan Yanliang said with a smile: "The queen's mother is serious, the rise and fall of the country, the husband is responsible, now that our great Jin disaster is coming, it is reasonable for Xiao Wang to do his best, why should the mother shirk?" ”

Chaoyun also smiled and said: "If the queen thinks that it is not good to accept our money, it should be regarded as our dowry in advance." ”

The dowry of four or five hundred thousand taels is really a big deal. It seems that Wan Yanliang and his wife have already recognized Jin'er, the son-in-law, otherwise they would not have invested so much.

Cai Wei smiled: "In this way, I thank his father-in-law and mother-in-law for the generosity of Jin'er......"
