Time flies, spring ends with the summer solstice.

After spring, the rain increased, causing the water level of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River to rise, almost flooding.

At the end of April, a major flood started from the middle reaches of the Yellow River, and at the end of the year, it overflowed in Shandong, and it became a disaster that was out of control.

Millions of people have been affected and more than 100,000 have been displaced and left homeless.

The court was anxious about this.

The key is how to resettle these victims and how to control the floods, which have become two major problems.

Even in the upper study, the masters did not give lectures, but often made their own tirades on these two issues, or just let the students express their opinions......

On this day, Jia Baoyu just went to the study, and after a while, the Yunni County Lord also arrived.

Lord Yunni seems to be quite happy today. As soon as they met, they said to him: "Jia Baoyu, it's my birthday in a few days, how about you come to Xiyuan to celebrate my birthday?" ”

When Jia Baoyu heard this, his head suddenly shook like a rattle.

"If you don't go, you can't go, what kind of place is Xiyuan, how can I go casually."

"Don't you have the dragon pattern jade pendant given to you by the Emperor Taishang?"

Yunni said curiously.

Jia Baoyu continued to shake his head: "I don't know where to put it." ”

"Ah, you lost the jade pendant that the Emperor gave you? That's going to kill your head......"

Yun Ni made a very shocked look, and then said, "But don't worry, I won't say it." ”

After speaking, Yunni showed a look that you don't need to thank me, I just looked like this.

"Thank you to the county lord, but I regret that I can't go to the county lord and your old man's birthday celebration."

Jia Baoyu pouted, although Yunni is cute, but he is also a little county lord who has been spoiled since he was a child, and he has nothing to do in the school to tease, he will not have nothing to do to go to Xiyuan to celebrate her birthday.

In the palace of the Queen Mother, there are thousands of pairs of eyes, and he is not the son of the king and grandson, so he will do something to recruit those white eyes.

Yunni didn't know Jia Baoyu's thoughts, she said very happily: "Even if you don't have the jade pendant, it doesn't matter, the Queen Mother promised me last night to let me hold a birthday banquet in Xinning Palace this year, and then I can invite people to my Xinning Palace as a guest."

Today, I will officially invite you to Xinning Palace, how about you tell me a story when the time comes? ”

"Not good...... Ahem, that little princess mother, there are so many eunuchs and palace maids in Xiyuan who accompany your old man for his birthday, aren't you still lively enough? No matter how bad it is, there are so many princesses and princesses in the royal family, princes and princesses, and famous ladies from various families, if you don't invite these, what do you ask me to do? ”

Yunni said naturally: "They are all boring to death, or you are a fun person, and you are different from others." ”

"What's the difference, do I have an extra nose or an extra eye?"

"Giggle......

Yun Ni smiled, and seemed to see that Jia Baoyu didn't want to go, she was suddenly a little angry, and then relieved, hum, this guy is like this, I don't know what to do at all!

"You really don't go, don't regret it, let me tell you, I've invited Sister Ye, and she will come to celebrate my birthday when the time comes, don't regret if you don't come?"

"Uh-huh...... Don't go, don't go. ”

It's good that I didn't hear this, but I heard that Ye Zhenzhen was going too, and Jia Baoyu wouldn't go if she was killed.

finally let the second prince let down his guard against him, if he ran to meet Ye Zhenzhen at this time, who knows what the unbalanced man who fell into the situation of "love but can't" will think.

"Hmph, if you don't go, you won't go, who is rare!"

Yunni puffed back to his seat.

Jia Baoyu didn't care.

Suddenly, the second prince walked in, with a gloomy face.

walked up to Jia Baoyu and hesitated.

Jia Baoyu got up.

"Ziheng, sit down."

The second prince invited Jia Baoyu to sit down, and then knew that Jia Baoyu saw that he had something on his mind, so he no longer hesitated, and said directly: "Ziheng knows about the recent affairs of the court." ”

"What Your Highness wants to talk about is water control and disaster relief, and I know a thing or two about it."

The second prince nodded, this is just an opening statement, this is not what he wants to ask.

"I want to ask Your Majesty for an order to go out of Beijing to do business."

Jia Baoyu glanced at the face of the second prince and said, "Your Highness wants to control the water?" ”

Since ancient times, I don't know how many times the Yellow River has been flooded. Every time there is a big flood, if it is a prosperous time, the imperial court will inevitably plan to control the water.

Water control is a major event, with great responsibility and great merit.

If it is cured, it will be a great merit. If it can't be cured, it's common for the head to be unable to save it.

The second prince shook his head: "I'm not a high-minded person, and I have been managing water since ancient times, and I'm not good at it." And water control is a major matter related to the livelihood of hundreds of millions of people, how dare I take errands. ”

Jia Baoyu breathed a sigh of relief.

He was afraid that the second prince would be hot-headed and would go to control the water.

There are too many ways to control the water, and if you are not careful, you will get into trouble.

And the second prince is now the most promising candidate to inherit the throne in the future, and he should take stability first, and all risks are to give others a chance.

"So Your Highness just wants disaster relief?"

The second prince nodded.

"But the master didn't agree, so I put my studies first."

The second prince thought to himself that he did not study economics for the imperial examination, but to govern the country and benefit the people.

What's the point of sitting in the house and studying at such a time?

Jia Baoyu's heart is like a mirror.

The second prince has been active in class these days, and he has obviously been thinking about making meritorious contributions for a long time.

He didn't want to let go of such an opportunity to make great achievements and let the world see what he was capable of.

No matter how smart a person is, once he touches what he wants most, he may be more likely to sit still and be more persistent than others.

Once this person can't sit still, if he insists on holding it, it is easy to hold it back.

Ye Qiong's meaning Jia Baoyu also understood, but it was just seeking stability.

It's also very sad to say, the more princes and grandsons are grandsons, in fact, the more useless they are to learn literary and martial arts.

Unless, he can finally sit on the dragon chair.

Otherwise, the higher the ability, the easier it is to attract disaster.

Although the second prince is the most promising person to inherit the unification in the future, he is not ...... yet

It doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong, it just depends on how you think, how the process is done, and what the result is.

"Is Your Highness ready to listen to the words of the Grand Master, or does he have other plans?"

The second prince did not hide it, and said bluntly: "I have personally asked Your Majesty for advice last night, but Your Majesty did not give me a clear answer, let me go over at noon today." ”

Jia Baoyu nodded: "Then Your Highness wants me to persuade the Grand Master on Your Highness's behalf?" ”

The two princes all played first, which shows that they are resolute.

"Exactly, this matter has to be troubled Ziheng.

From the defense in the class of Tianheng two days ago, I also knew that Ziheng is also a person who cares about the people's livelihood in the world, and he will definitely be able to understand my thoughts.

I also know that Ziheng is eloquent, if you come forward to tell the Taishi about this, the Taishi may not be able to change his mind.

If you really can't......

Then please ask Ziheng to make amends to the Taishi on my behalf, and when I return from my success, I will personally go to his old man's house to ask for guilt! ”

Jia Baoyu sighed, if he really came back, I am afraid that it will not be a matter of asking for guilt......

"Since this is the case, then I would like to wish His Highness a victorious start and an early victory.

On the side of the Grand Master, I will do my best for His Highness next week. ”

"Thank you."

The second prince patted Jia Baoyu on the shoulder, his eyes were firm and full of ambition.
