Ji Qing 'Lu' stood aside respectfully, and when he heard the conversation between Qin Wan and Chen Xuan, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of himself. , the latest chapter of the visit wèn:.

Because of her own experience, she has no fear of royalty, but only a reverence for knowledge. I thought that she had learned a lot these days, but she didn't know who Qin Wan said casually, so she buried her head unconsciously, but her footsteps did not stop at all, and she followed Qin Wan step by step, listening to her comments.

Qin Wan had obviously thought about the 'female' study for a long time, and put forward a lot of opinions along the way, and when she returned to the main hall, she waved her hand and motioned most of the people who were waiting and guarding to retreat, before asking Ji Qing 'Lu': "Qing 'Lu', do you still remember your hometown?" Or, what did you see on the way to Chang'an? ”

Ji Qing's 'dew' heart tightened, and he didn't know what Qin Wan meant by asking this, so he replied thoughtfully: "When I was in Xin'an County, the concubine didn't come out of the big 'door', and the second 'door' didn't step, and she was short-sighted. On the way to Beijing, I gained a little knowledge. ”

"Don't call yourself a concubine." Qin Wan seemed to say something casually, and then asked, "What did you see along the way?" Can you talk to Lone? When Lone returned to Chang'an, he came to pick up Aya, Aniang and Lone De is now the protector of Annan, all the way by boat, and there are soldiers from Xunyifu to shelter him. ”

Ji Qing 'Lu' saw that Qin Wan did not allow her to be humble, his heart was moved, he thought for a moment, decided to take a gamble, and said: "When my subordinates entered Beijing, although they only followed an old woman by their side, they followed the caravan all the way. The caravan was well stocked and guarded, all of them powerful, and repelled several attacks. ”

Chen Xuan heard the word "attack", and his expression was pale, and sure enough, Qin Wan asked again: "Attack?" Do you remember who those people were? ”

"A few times they were bandits, and once or twice they were hungry outcasts." Ji Qing'lu saw that Qin Wan didn't look like he could only listen to good words, and his heart settled down, "Fortunately, there is no danger." ”

Qin Wan bowed his head lightly and muttered thoughtfully: "Did you start more than ten years ago?" ”

Xin'an County belongs to Hongnong County, which is notoriously wealthy, has many families, and has strong power. I also know that if the people can't afford the heavy taxes and want to find another way out, of course, they will go to a rich place. It's really not good, it's okay to take refuge in the family and be a slave. Even if life and death are not up to oneself, in the end it is a way of life.

It was also thanks to this kind of place that the news could be covered, and the families had enough appetite to digest these people, and the rich families were well-off, and they also needed slaves to cultivate or 'serve' their masters. But in more than ten years, even if the family has the heart, they don't have the strength to eat so many people. At that time, chaos will grow.

It is not a good thing that the country's taxes have been reduced and the family is strong.

Ji Qing 'Lu' listened, his heart was a little suspenseful, and he didn't know where he said it wrong, so he heard Qin Wan say again: "You have also been away from home for a long time, you might as well write a letter to your family and bring it to your family, if you can know how many hidden households your family has, it would be the best." After that, he smiled slightly and comforted, "You are my person, I will never treat you badly, let alone treat your family lightly." ”

The assurances of the superior are often untrustworthy, and Ji Qing 'Lu' is very clear about this. But she understands even more that she has too few ways to go up, and if she doesn't firmly grasp Qin Wan, she doesn't know where her future is.

Qin Wan may not need Ji Qing's 'Lu', let alone the loyalty of the Xin'an Ji family, but on the contrary, the Xin'an Ji family and Ji Qing's 'Lu' need Qin Wan too much.

"My subordinates are going to write letters!" Ji Qing 'Lu' thought about it, afraid that it would not be reliable, and hurriedly asked, "Can you borrow your people?" "It's a matter of the Ji family's secrets, her words may not be effective, she has to send someone who sings a white face over to suppress the scene.

"Once the letter is written, you can contact Zishen." Qin Wan compared Chen Xuan and said, "Regarding the exam papers, you let Ah Sheng keep a snack, I see that the building is already quite large-scale." In a while, the 'female' school will be officially enrolled! ”

Ji Qing 'Lu' responded solemnly, and said: "Please inscribe a plaque to Your Highness!" ”

"The matter of the inscription, press it for the time being." Qin Wan smiled, didn't explain, only said, "It's not too early, there are still things, I'll go first." ”

Not early?

Ji Qing 'Lu' looked at the sky 'color', calculated the time when the palace 'gate' was under the key, and thought to himself that this is not time yet, where is it not early? Could it be the county lord...... Going somewhere else?

As she expected, Qin Wan's frame was out of the 'female' school, and she did not return to the palace, but went to Mu Miao's mansion.

It is naturally very rude to go to the 'door' to visit without handing over the prayer post. But she was a hot county lord of Guangling who openly participated in politics with the permission of the saint and the prince, so the slave in Mu Miao's mansion trotted to inform the master and opened the 'door' to greet her.

This is the power of power.

Mu Miao thought at first that Qin Wan had come to him for the Mu family's affairs, and was thinking about what to say. Before Qin Wan was invited to sit down, he saw Qin Wan solemnly giving him a teacher's salute, and said, "Mr. is familiar with the affairs of Jiangnan, and I hope Mr. will teach me." ”

So solemnly...... Mu Miao's heart suddenly suddenly, and suddenly remembered a thing buried in his heart, forcibly suppressed thousands of terrifying 'waves', and also replied with a half-salute: "Don't dare to be, I hope the county lord will please." He took her to the study.

Although his surname is Mu and he puts the interests of his family first, he was also a high-powered civil official, full of ambition, with the world in mind, and eager to leave a strong mark in history.

Compared with the family that has been dragging back, what makes him more laborious is undoubtedly the biggest effort and wish of his life, Jiangnan Canal.

Qin Wan saw that Mu Miao was stern and got up, and after sitting down, he explained his intention with a very sincere attitude: "The sage showed me your recital, thinking that I knew nothing about the affairs in Jiangnan, and I was afraid that I would make a mistake, so I came to ask Mr. for advice." ”

The "wrong judgment" in her mouth is nothing else, but a matter of people's power.

Cao Yun is an extremely important part of the country's operation, and the emperors of the Great Xia dynasties are more cherished of the people's power and are unwilling to levy more conscription, which makes many things unable to be carried out together, and must be prioritized.

The digging of the Jiangnan Canal is naturally a good thing, Jiangnan is the land of fish and rice, if the 'traffic' can be convenient, whether it is a war, grain or people, it can be much more convenient. However, the problem of the southeast transportation route is equally important, and it is urgent to solve the problem of Cao running to Guanzhong, which needs to pass through the three 'gates' gorge, where the water flow is very urgent, and the amount of water is large, and the Cao boat wants to pass safely, and the manpower and material resources consumed are innumerable, and the grain is also lost in the process of transshipment. It is said that every time you pass through this road, from the high-ranking officials to the slender man, all of them worship the three 'gates' of people, ghosts and gods, and pray for peace.

In order to solve this problem, all dynasties have thought of many methods, and the Cao Canal dug in the Han Dynasty is undoubtedly the top priority, which not only avoids the steepness, saves time and manpower and material resources, and even irrigates the adjacent fields. However, due to the war, as well as the special family administration of the previous dynasty, the southeast transportation road was in disrepair, whether it was the Yellow River that often flooded, or the diversion due to the construction of manors by the family, or the partially dried up canal, all of which led to the unsmooth navigation route. Even if Daxia has been repaired many times, the effect is still not good, and the grain transported from Luoyang to Chang'an can be saved for seven out of ten is already great news.

In order to solve this matter, the imperial court thought of many ways, and the southeast transportation road was to be repaired. The safest plan is undoubtedly to open up a new river next to the San'men' Gorge, and not only that, but also to dig a canal that runs horizontally with Wei to divert the Yellow River, the Bianhe River, and Surabaya. However, before the party struggle in the imperial court was 'fierce', and such a great hero as water conservancy and water transportation also involved so many rivers and such important strategic significance, no one dared to speak rashly. lest this matter be used by people with intentions, it was originally a good thing to benefit the country and the people and solve the national crisis, but because several princes fought for that chair, the good thing changed its taste.

It stands to reason that the solution of the southeast transportation route should be the top priority, and all the grain is hoarded in Luoyang, and the transportation to Chang'an is getting less and less every year, which is not a good phenomenon. However, Mu Miao feels that the development of the Jiangnan Canal is equally important, and the 'spending' fee is relatively small, which is much faster and more convenient than the management of the southeast transportation road. As long as it is handled well, it can also bring a lot of tax revenue to the imperial court, so he gave the saint such a note.

In terms of heart, he also has his own 'selfish' heart.

He is already in his forties, and at this age, such an official position, although it can be called young, it is 'glamorous' and enviable. But he knows that the 'essence' and mentality will change with the passage of time. If the imperial court first repaired the southeast transportation road and then dug the Jiangnan Canal, the latter did not know when it would have to wait. Will he be able to wait until this day? Will the future monarch be willing to build the Jiangnan Canal? Won't anything happen to the country? Even if everything goes well, with his lifespan, can he really see the day when the Jiangnan Canal is opened?

In everyone's eyes, Mu Miao was in a high position because of the Mu family, and jealous people refused to face up to his own talent. The more this is the case, the more he has to prove it to everyone, even if there is no Mu family, he is no worse than anyone else!

Why did the sage weigh it for so long, Mu Miao also understood that it would take great courage to dig the Jiangnan Canal first and then build the southeast transportation road. If the reigning monarch is not bold enough to suppress the courtiers and the family, the original good thing is likely to become a talisman for the Qin royal family. Because Jiangnan is too far away from Chang'an, its benefits, Chang'an will not be able to enjoy for a while and a half, but the southeast transport route is different, that is the main road from Chang'an to Luoyang, and the important 'sex' is self-evident.

The saint cannot make a choice until the heir is determined. Even now, the sage had only left the decision to Qin Wan, rather than really making a decision.

Because Qin Wan is not a man, the sage has no way to guarantee that she can really control the government.

Mu Miao's lifelong hope can only be pinned on Qin Wan's body. If she wants to be stable, the Jiangnan Canal ...... I don't know when it will be excavated.

"Your Highness" When the matter came to an end, Mu Miao was speechless, he pondered for a long time before he asked a little dryly, "Your Highness has any seal on Jiangnan."
