Chapter 28: Liaocheng Flood
Xia Wei glanced at Xia Lin, Xia Lin had no choice but to restrain his emotions, retreated from his entourage, and asked indifferently, "Who are these people?" ”
Seeing Xia Changye's indifferent appearance, the Xuan Ming disciples were also so proud of Xia Lin that they refused to speak, Xia Wei had no choice but to say, "These people are here to apologize to me." ”
Xia Lin smiled deeply: "If it is an apology, you must show a little sincerity." ”
Xia Wei secretly looked at Xia Lin in her heart, and she didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.
"How?" Xia Wei asked.
The emperor commanded, "Apologize...... Naturally, I want them to teach the basic mental method of the Xuanming Sect to our Zhenguo General Qi Feng! ”
Then secretly asked the general to teach him, after all, the Xuanming Strange Skill is famous all over the world, and those who get the Strange Skill win the world!
Wei Zhao stood up and waved his hand slightly, "Your Majesty the Emperor, our Xuanming's internal strength has never been passed on, and I hope you will be forgiving and forgiving!" ”
Xia Lin replied simply: "Gaiden? After my Anning Dynasty marries you Xuanming, how can I say that you are all relatives of the emperor and the country, how can you distinguish between inside and outside? Or, Lord Pony doesn't want to marry my sister at all? ”
"You dog emperor, you're too pushy!" Guan Fu picked up the Buddha beads around his neck, spun around and flew towards the emperor.
Xia Wei was startled and immediately protected him in front of him.
Seeing the situation, Xiao Changye quickly took the fan that Xia Wei put on the table, threw it as a dart, and then withdrew it in his hand.
Even if you take a very motherly thing, your actions can be so chic, Xiao Changye is really an outlier.
Guan Fu Buddha Zhu shrank and took a few steps back, since the time of the bamboo forest, he was no longer surprised that the sect leader would do this.
"Grandma's a bear." He cursed.
Xia Changye knocked the fan on his shoulder and said with a smile: "Your Majesty the Emperor, this matter is a mistake caused by my lax discipline, and I should be responsible for this matter." ”
Xia Lin was excited in his heart, but he still said with a dark face on the surface: "Okay! What the horse said is reasonable, for your sake, I will not pursue the assassination of me, tomorrow morning, please go to the military department to take up your post. ”
Xia Lin brushed his sleeves away, and the moment he turned his back on them, the corners of his lips hooked up a smug smile, as if his cultivation was close at hand.
The Xuan Ming Sect's apology was an end.
On the second day, a eunuch guided Xiao Changye to the military department to receive an official position and go to the early court.
According to the rules, Xiao Changye should thank the emperor and then enter the list of hundred officials.
But Xiao Changye is only among the hundred officials, and it seems that someone deliberately took care of it.
Xiao Changye clasped his hands and glanced at the little emperor sitting on the dragon chair in front of the hall, through the chair, there was a veil of gold silk embroidery behind it, and he vaguely saw a dignified woman sitting.
"The minister has something to do." I only heard what Prime Minister Jah said.
Xiao Nagano looked at Jia He with interest.
"The floods in Liaocheng are serious, the river water rises sharply in spring and summer, the flooding disaster in the fields is serious, the particles are not harvested, in the autumn and winter, the river is dry, the land is cracked, and the dripping water is hard to find.
When Xia Wei heard this, her hand on the back of the chair tightened.
How should this be?
This kind of relief is not a solution, not to mention that their treasury capital is limited, just say that the people can't suffer until the relief money arrives, and they will be approved layer by layer, and I don't know how long it will have to be delayed, and it is better to give people fish than to give them fish.
It is not too good to transform this wasteland of poor livelihood into a social system of self-sufficiency, happiness of the people, and the realization of an overall well-off society!
So how have people solved it in modern history?
Sun Shuao of the Chu State, through the ancient road of the Huai River, opened the flood gates, built Pi ponds, and built water conservancy irrigation to benefit the people of the Huai River.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Li Bing dug canals, built Dujiangyan, and irrigated tens of thousands of acres of fields under it.
Why not recruit strong men and dig canals?
No, no, no, according to the current development situation, digging the canal will inevitably cost the people and money, and the people will inevitably die and be injured.
If you can't dig it manually, then ...... She suddenly remembered something, yes! Gunpowder! With a fried one! Open the mountain and blow up the canal!
She glanced at the people in the hall.
A eunuch opened the curtain and passed it to her.
She glanced at it hurriedly.
Xia Lin in front of the tent tilted his head, as if he wanted to look at her, so Xia Wei nodded to the eunuch.
There is no one other than her and Xiao Changye who knows what gunpowder, so she will not say anything for the time being, and it is better to settle the matter in front of her now.
The emperor then ordered: "The relief grain and grass and subsidies must be taken, but the amount of them needs to be further determined." ”
When it was time to retreat from the dynasty, Jia He was summoned by Xia Lin into the imperial study, and Xia Wei followed.
Xiao Changye wore a sword from a distance, side by side among a group of guards in the same costume, Xia Wei saw Xiao Changye at a glance.
Tsk, this humanoid hanger, even if you wear the same clothes, stands out from the crowd and wins the first place.
The guards around him also secretly glanced at him several times, and after being seen by Xia Wei, they retracted their gaze in a daze. Second Chinese Network
This may be the legendary bumping shirt is not terrible, who is ugly and who is embarrassed.
Xia Wei secretly laughed and turned into the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, now that the treasury is in short supply, 300,000 taels of gold is not a small amount, there is a degree of relief, I hope the emperor will think twice." Jach knelt on the ground and seconded.
"Emperor, what Prime Minister Zuo said is reasonable." Xia Wei said.
Xia Lin pursed his lips and thought for a while, in fact, he felt that it was inappropriate, but he didn't know how to deal with it.
He asked rhetorically: "So what should it be, it has indeed been a long time since the last relief, and it is difficult for them to hold on for such a long time." ”
"Let's reduce it by 200,000 for the time being." Xia Wei replied.
Xia Lin exclaimed: "Sister Huang, do you mean 100,000? ”
According to the current situation of Liaocheng, 100,000 taels of gold, it can be done to repair the house, maintain Qianmo, and it will be autumn in a blink of an eye, although the grain and grass are extra relief, but at best they can only last for about half a year, and their grain and grass are single, who can only eat rice for three meals a day.
"Yes...... The emperor is not in a hurry. The little emperor was about to interject when he heard this, and Xia Wei said again: "Let's listen to this palace, the Xuanming Sect is close to the desert, and the Xingluo River also has a dry period, but they don't have this symptom, but the disciples of the sect should rob and make trouble." ”
The emperor suddenly realized, and his eyes gradually widened, "What does the imperial sister mean is to let the Xuanming Sect Master personally go to Liaocheng to teach everyone how to deal with the waterless period?" ”
Jia He was still present, except for the emperor and the eldest princess, no one else knew that Xiao Changye was the leader of the Xuanming Sect.
Xia Wei: "......"
It's not MLM brainwashing! Rely on the power of science and technology!
Just what she heard now, the sect leader himself had a lot of unique skills, Xia Wei thought carefully for a while, and felt that these "martial arts" were not pure martial arts, but like physical phenomena.
Therefore, Shen Jiayan can firmly occupy the position of the sect leader, not only has a unique martial arts knowledge, but also has the blessing of modern knowledge, so he is mysterious.
"Yes!" The light of hope in Xia Lin's eyes can set the prairie on fire, "Just ...... Just according to what the royal sister said! 100,000 taels of gold"
Xia Wei added, "Double the grain and grass." ”
Jahe felt that what Xia Wei said was simply a fantasy, but the current situation of the treasury was still like this, why not use a dead horse as a live horse doctor!
Jach wiped the sweat from his head and withdrew.
Xia Lin immediately drafted a plan.
Xia Wei had her own important things to do, and after giving Xia Lin a few words, she walked out.
glanced at Xiao Changye and snickered again.
It just so happened that Xiao Changye looked over, her face seemed to be smiling, she became serious in seconds, and walked away embarrassedly.
She hadn't been walking long before she felt someone following her.
She quickened her pace and turned into a waterfront.
The man's pace slowed.
She appeared, quietly looked at the man with his back to her, and said softly, "Uncle Huang! ”
Xia Yu's body stiffened, the roots of his ears were slightly stained with pink, and he turned around stiffly, and his face was expressionless.
Xia Wei was puzzled: "What did the imperial uncle do with the palace?"
He was as cold as ice, he just walked up quickly, held her arm and said, "Eldest princess, this king thinks that the Liaocheng flood cannot only treat the symptoms but not the root cause."
Xia Wei's attitude changed, and she looked at him appreciatively, "How do you say it?" ”
Xia Yu patiently and slowly said to her: "Liaocheng floods have been frequent since the beginning of the emperor, and even reached a serious point, once experienced a three-year drought, starved to death hundreds of Li people, but at that time there were many disputes in the palace, the first emperor lacked skills, so he took rescue funding as the primary way, and later this way became a stale, and it has been inherited until now. ”
"What do you think should be done?" Xia Wei listened with great interest, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were full of high-spirited smiles.
Xia Yu said in a deep voice: "When the mountain is dug and the canal is dug to make a drainage irrigation system."
Great! It is worthy of having the most potential to be an emperor back then.
"Uncle Huang, you are wrong." The tip of her shoe crushed the ground, her eyes sank, her smile never diminished, and she said in a clear voice: "Even if I am lacking in skills when the first emperor is here, but my subordinates are not unable to contribute, will you know Uncle Huang?" Chang'an is the imperial capital, with its own charm and infinite scenery, but away from Chang'an to the remote place, how many people are suffering from life, often running out of food and clothing, if the palace gathers men, will be disabled, and exhausted years without income, then what should parents and children do at home? ”
It turned out that she thought like this, even if she put away her innocence, she was still so soft-hearted and kind-hearted.
Xia Yu suddenly took a step forward, they were not very far away from each other, and when they got closer, they almost touched each other at zero distance.
"What does the princess mean?" He still asked lightly.
Her heart was beating so hard that she forgot to say what she claimed, "I...... I have my own ideas. ”
She saw him stretch out his hand, just about to touch......
"Where are the dogs!" A shout.
Xia Wei pushed him away.
More than a dozen guards swarmed in.
