Dear friends, the first shift is coming, and the second shift is about 6-7 o'clock. Last night, I read "A Brief History of Western Philosophy" (by Zhao Dunhua) and remembered a sentence: if a person cannot choose his character, then everything about him is predestined. If his character is his creation, then he is in control of his destiny.

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

"There are so many mountains in this area, and the rocks on the mountains are so hard, the river is really hard to dig." Long Qingyun continued.

Looking at the map thoughtfully.

For Fengtianfu, which is full of rivers, lakes and ports, every season is a flood-prone period, so there will be floods here almost every year, and Yan Jinxuan and Long Qingyun came this time to solve the problem of mountain floods here.

No wonder the officials refused to come here to control the water, Long Qingyun thought to himself.

They're really getting a hot potato this time.

"Anyway, the river has to be dug." Yan Jinxuan said.

If this problem is not solved, the people in the low-lying areas of Fengtianfu will not be able to live in peace for a day.

"We can mobilize people to dig from here, divert the remaining water from here into the Han River, and then dig a big hole in the middle of this mountain to make the water from these two places flow to Mochou Lake...... We are not afraid of hard stones, so we first use fire to loosen them, and then we use axes and iron pickaxes to chop them. Yan Jinxuan analyzed.

Although it was a very difficult job, after Yan Jinxuan's analysis, Long Qingyun felt that it was still achievable, so he immediately regained his confidence.

"The whole project is estimated to take 15 to 18 days." Yan Jinxuan said.

"Uh-huh." Long Qingyun nodded.

At that time, it will be just in time for the rain-prone period of Pingliang Province.

Pingliang Mansion is where they will go next.

"Go to sleep. I'm going to work early tomorrow morning. Yan Jinxuan said with a smile.

"Okay, you can go to bed early, too." Long Qingyun got up with a smile and retreated.

Long Qingyun lived in the room next door to Yan Jinxuan.

Yan Jinxuan stared at the map for a while, wrote down a few key points of work, and then changed his clothes and went to sleep.

Local officials will come early tomorrow morning to listen to their suggestions and assist them in their work.

After that, it's time to get busy.

Yan Jinxuan lay down on the bed and felt that the bones all over his body were aching.

It's really tiring to travel non-stop these days.

He stretched out his long legs and then untied the straps of his dressing gown, which made him feel more comfortable.

So he took out the jade pendant he was wearing around his neck and put it to his mouth and kissed it.

It's been the tenth day he's been away from home, and I don't know how his little girl has been doing. Since he got married, he has been used to sleeping with her in his arms, and now he feels a little lonely when he sleeps alone.

But he would never do anything to be sorry for his little girl.

From the day he decided that he would marry her, he was determined to be absolutely faithful to her, both mentally and physically.

And he knew that his little girl would always be so loyal to him.

He slowly fell asleep with his thoughts on her.

……………………

Also on this night, the lights in the Liuxiang Teahouse in the capital were brilliant.

It's a favorite place for literati and writers. Therefore, even in the middle of the night, it is still full.

A group of men in costume escorted a mild-looking young man from the outside.

They entered the door and went straight to the second floor.

The two people standing outside the door of the box on the far left side of the second floor immediately reported to the newspaper: "Your Excellency. The second prince is here. ”

Yan Shichong, who was sitting in the box drinking tea, stood up and tidied up his clothes, but did not go out.

When the second prince came in, Yan Shichong immediately saluted him.

The second prince nodded at him and waved his pendulum. Take your seat.

The demeanor is arrogant and elegant. It's already a bit of a king's style.

Yan Shichong's eyes lit up. Then he tugged at the corners of his mouth.

"The second prince is now more and more kingly!" Yan Shichong said with a smile.

The second prince smiled silently, reached out and picked up the tea on the table to drink.

He didn't know who Yan Shichong was, and now he couldn't deal with him if he didn't want to take advantage of his power.

Therefore, even if there is value in each other. But the second prince will not be wary of him.

"According to the secret agent's report, they have arrived in Fengtianfu." Yan Shichong whispered.

"Well, but this is not the best time to make a move, let's go in ten days and eight days." The second prince said.

He knew very well that if he did it at this time, it would be easy for people to notice that something was wrong.

"Are you ready?" Yan Shichong asked again.

"It's ready." The second prince replied, and then reached out and took out the share they had spoken of from his pocket.

Yan Shichong unfolded it and said with a smile: "Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!" ”

This time it should be foolproof, Yan Shichong said in his heart.

The second prince put the thing back in his pocket, and said to Yan Shichong with a light smile: "If this matter can be successfully completed, our future road will be much easier." ”

"Yes, yes, so we're going to succeed this time anyway." Yan Shichong hurriedly said.

"Don't worry, even if he is given a hundred dares, he will not dare to doubt this thing." The second prince said.

"Uh-huh." Yan Shichong nodded, and asked again: "Have all the people selected and sent have been implemented?" ”

The second prince seemed to be a little dissatisfied with his caution, and said lightly: "It's all in place." ”

Yan Shichong immediately smiled and said, "It's hard work for the second prince!" Come, Wechen toasts you. ”

The second prince picked up the wine glass next to him and touched it, raised his head and drank it all.

After three rounds of drinking, Yan Shichong asked again: "What if the emperor investigates it in a day?" ”

"When the matter is completed, the king will properly settle all the people involved in this matter." The second prince said, his eyes revealing a bit of ruthlessness.

This expression didn't quite match his gentle appearance.

Yan Shichong's heart trembled suddenly, but he also knew that what the second prince was referring to did not include him, so he nodded and said, "Okay!" ”

"Okay, the king will go back first." The second prince stood up and said.

Yan Shichong immediately got up to send him off.

Yan Jinxuan, who was far away in Fengtianfu, had a dream this night.

He dreamed that he and a group of running snowmen were walking hard in a snowy mountain forest, when suddenly countless wild wolves rushed from all directions. The snowmen have no power to fight back, and he is the only one who fights back. As a result, their clothes were quickly torn to shreds, and his limbs were torn through numerous cuts. He fought back stubbornly, telling himself that I must not die here. While he was fighting with the wolves, a big black wolf that grew taller than him grinned and pounced on him...

He woke up from a nightmare, gasped and opened his eyes, to find that the sky was already faintly bright, and the wind was blowing the curtains rattle.

Yan Jinxuan felt a slight chill.

"Let the phase master come over." Yan Jinxuan said to the entourage guarding the door. (To be continued.) )
