Chapter 33: Stealing Chickens Doesn't Make Rice

The floods in the south of the Yangtze River have plagued the people of the south of the Yangtze River all the year round, and this water conservancy project has been arranged a long time ago, so I have not found a suitable supervisor.

The emperor in the Jinluan Hall looked at the arguing ministers below and had a headache.

"Is there anyone in the Ministry of Industry who can do it?" The emperor's gaze looked in the direction of the Ministry of Works.

The man was overwhelmed by the pressure and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, there are a lot of things in the Ministry of Industry, I'm afraid I can't take care of this matter, not to mention that many people in our Ministry of Industry have gone to Jiangnan to build, if this humble post goes again, I'm afraid there will be no one in the Ministry of Industry."

These people in the south of the Yangtze River are naturally unwilling to endure hardships, seeing him refusing, it makes sense, although the emperor was a little unhappy on his face, he did not have a seizure.

In the end, there was no discussion about who to send.

"Your Majesty, it's not good......" Suddenly a eunuch recklessly barged in and shouted loudly.

Seeing that he was so undignified, the emperor frowned and was about to scold, but he was stunned when he heard his next sentence.

"The prince is seriously ill and has a high fever that does not go away, your majesty, go and take a look!"

At this time, where did the emperor still have the heart to scold the eunuchs, leaving the courtiers and walking quickly to the prince's palace.

Seeing his son lying on the bed with his eyes closed with his face flushed, he was worried in his heart and asked the doctor with a cold face.

"How's the prince?"

"Your Majesty, the prince has a high fever caused by the wind and cold, and after Weichen prescribes a prescription for the prince, it should be able to reduce the fever."

Hearing what the prince said, the emperor secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his face still looked majestic, "Then don't go quickly!" ”

The prince, who originally wanted to ask for a decree to be the overseer, was interrupted by the sudden wind chill.

Originally, he didn't think of being an overseer, but as for why he suddenly thought about it, this matter had to start early yesterday morning.

That day, he was invited by Qi Ze to go to the Zuixian Building, and after a proposal by Qi Ze and Qi Ke, he felt that it was a good idea to go to the south to supervise the water conservancy.

Who knew that when he was about to ask for the holy decree, he contracted a cold.

What the prince didn't know was that his wind chill was not sudden, but man-made.

This is the effect of the medicinal powder that Mu Xi handed over to Mu Xiao that day, and he borrowed Qingluan's hand to give it to the prince, which made him suddenly get a cold.

It is not a trivial matter for the prince to be sick, not to mention that the little eunuch in the court roared like that, and almost everyone present knew about it.

"Miss, the prince is sick." Mei'er pushed the door in and told Mu Xiwan the news she had heard.

Mu Xiwan held the hand of the "Poison Book" for a moment, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"After taking this medicine, the symptoms of wind and cold will appear within one day, the high fever will not go away, the consciousness will be unconscious, and the symptoms will subside in three or five days, and it will not hurt people's lives." It just so happened that she had turned to this page, and she whispered it.

She read it very quietly, but Mei'er was very close to her, and when she heard all this, her face changed dramatically.

"Miss, will the prince's matter be found out to us?"

"The prince is just infected with the wind and cold, what does it have to do with us?" Mu Xiwan put the "Poison Book" on the table, stood up, and asked with a smile.

When Mei'er heard this, her face looked a little better.

Also, it's just a wind chill, so how can you find out if it's man-made.

What's more, she listened to her young lady's words at the beginning, and ran all over the pharmacy in the city, buying a little medicinal herb from each pharmacy, so that she could get all the medicinal herbs.

Mei'er hurriedly thought about whether she had any other mistakes, and then she really put her mind at ease.

Because no one will see the wind chill as poisoning.

The prince was sick, and several families were happy and a few worried, and this sorrow was naturally Qi Ke, who asked the prince to go to the southern water conservancy supervisor at the beginning.

The two sat in the private room of the restaurant, and Qi Ke drank the wine in his hand.

"This prince was obviously fine when he drank with us yesterday, why did he catch the wind chill after one night! It's just this time! Qi Ze, who was sitting opposite Qi Ke, slammed his fist on the table.

Qi Ke couldn't figure it out, yesterday's prince's face was obviously very good, after some persuasion from them, the prince was really moved, and he just had to wait quietly for the plan to succeed, but who knew that this prince actually dropped the chain temporarily!

Feeling depressed in his heart, he couldn't figure it out, could it be really bad luck?

Qi Ke poured himself another glass of wine.

Because of this, both of them were not happy, and their interest was not high, so they dispersed after drinking several glasses in a row.

The Jiangnan water conservancy matter could not be dragged on any longer, and the court argued about this matter again, and one or two argued red-faced, but no one was willing to stand up.

"Your Majesty, I feel that there is one person who is qualified for this position." Vice Admiral Xu spoke.

As he spoke, a large group of courtiers who had been arguing suddenly fell silent and listened to what he had to say.

"Oh? Who is it? "The emperor is worried about this matter, and now that someone is proposing, he naturally can't ask for it, so he hurriedly asked.

There was a faint smile on the corner of Vice General Xu's mouth, he hung his head, but no one saw it, everyone's eyes were on him, and those people were afraid that he would say his name.

"I think that the prince of Shengjun can be qualified for the position of supervisor, and the prince is a royal man, and sending him to him can better reflect the importance that our Northern Yan Kingdom attaches to the floods in the south."

He said this beautifully, and the emperor sitting on the dragon chair nodded, and was about to speak, when King Shengjun hurriedly stood up.

"The Emperor's ......"

However, the emperor did not give him a chance to speak again.

"Then let's settle it." The emperor, who has been worried about this matter for a long time, will naturally not give him another chance to shirk it, and as soon as he opens his golden mouth, this matter is equivalent to no turning point.

The other courtiers all breathed a sigh of relief, and King Shengjun glared at Vice General Xu fiercely.

At this moment, Vice General Xu only felt very comfortable in his heart, Qi Ke's faction, he pulled down the next one and counted one.

Qi Ze, who received the holy decree at home, never thought that he had planned to coax the prince to do that kind of overseer, but it fell on his head.

The flooding in the south is severe, and it may be flooded at any time.

He was unwilling to endure this hardship, and even more unwilling to risk his own life, so when his father returned, he hurriedly greeted him.

"Father, my son doesn't want to go ......"

"There is no room for maneuver in this matter, the emperor has been worried about this matter for many days, and it is not easy to choose the candidate......"

In the latter words, King Shengjun did not say it, and Qi Ze also knew that he must go to Jiangnan, and the emperor was anxious, for fear of accidents, so he made a holy decree as soon as he decided.

Qi Ze punched the wall, too hard, his hand was bleeding, and he withdrew his hand in pain.

In desperation, I can only accept my fate.

In my heart, Vice General Xu and the prince hated each other.

If it weren't for the crown prince's cold, how could it be his turn!

Mu Xiwan didn't expect that he just took a dose of medicine, and finally went to Jiangnan and replaced it with Qi Ze.

But she likes to see this result, Qi Ke and Qi Ze get together every day, and they don't know how many schemes to think of, and now that Qi Ze has gone to Jiangnan, it is equivalent to breaking one of his arms.
