Chapter 255: Fighting the Underworld and Eliminating Evil

Sumire tea said hatefully: "The Northern Tartar beasts not only burned down the palace and washed the city with blood, but also covered with white bones wherever they passed, and there were no chickens and dogs. ”

Qinghe said secretly in his heart: "Zhuo Xing has not yet appeared, and it is too early to pull down hatred now." Laughing at the violet tea, he diverted the topic: "If we want to build water conservancy, we must not only learn from our ancestors, but also pay attention to local conditions; It is also necessary to surpass the ancestors and draw inferences from one another. In my opinion, the water conservancy of Jincheng in western Shuxi is mainly repaired; The water conservancy of the eastern edge of Shu should focus on new construction. ”

Sumire Tea smiled: "It's exactly what I want." I immediately urged Shuxi to restore water conservancy. After a pause, he asked again: "Qinghe, in your opinion, how to build a new water conservancy in Yuancheng?" ”

Qinghe groaned slightly: "The topography of the edge city is undulating; The rivers are vertical and horizontal, the lakes and reservoirs are dense, and the key points of water conservancy construction are naturally guided by the situation, and the accumulation and attraction are taken into account. The Wuli Lake water diversion project can be started first. ”

Sumire Chaqi said: "Wuli Lake? ”

Qinghe smiled: "Yes, it's Wuli Lake." It has a high altitude, a large amount of water, and is adjacent to fertile soil. It can be built along the valley to build a clear water channel, which winds down and guides the lake water to Pingba with gravity flow. ”

Sumire Tea was full of praise: "Yes, the water diversion from Wuli Lake is enough to irrigate the west of the city." However, how to solve the farmland in the north of the city? ”

While talking, the two climbed up the hill, overlooking the two rivers of Changling, from west to east, the waves jumped and surged, like the sound of the piano changing endlessly. Sometimes cheerful, sometimes melodious; Sometimes peaceful, sometimes bold. It seems that the sound of waves crashing on the shore can be heard from afar, so pleasant, so beautiful.

On the river, sailboats are flying fast, coming and going; In mid-air, egrets swept over the crests of the waves, rising and falling.

Such a river is inspiring and exciting.

Qinghe saw the rise, and then said: "If Sister Tea wants to improve the irrigation surface, expand production, and water conservancy and agriculture, it is not difficult." In the northwest of Yuancheng, in the upper reaches of the Lingjiang River, there is a secondary tributary, which is the Fujiang River. ”

Sumire Tea smiled when she heard this: "Fujiang? I know. The terrain is extremely high and the water is abundant, almost dozens of times that of Wuli Lake. ”

Qinghe said: "At the Yunjian Pass, the water of the Fujiang River is divided into two, and the original water flows to the Lingjiang River; The new branch stream is dug in Yunjian Mountain to divert water, and through artificial canals, it is self-flowing to the farmland irrigation area. In this way, the entire edge of the city, within a radius of hundreds of miles, is a combination of drought and flood to ensure harvest, abundance and drought. ”

When Sumire heard this, she was stunned for a long time, and sighed infinitely: "Sister He, I knew that you were extremely smart, but I still can't believe that you are so knowledgeable." Listening to you is better than reading ten years of books, not to mention those self-righteous and inactive sour Confucians. ”

Qinghe smiled sweetly: "Sister Tea has won the award, but I will attack your beautiful jade with the stones of other mountains." He secretly said in his heart: "Ah Long in my last life is the most intelligent and the real Hongru." ”

Sumire Tea was full of admiration: "Sister He, do you know?" Yesterday, the monarch was in order to develop water conservancy, when the dynasty brainstormed, but it is a pity that the civil and military officials, debated for a long time, do not say that they made suggestions, and even the division and rule of western and eastern Shu could not be straightened out clearly. ”

Qinghe's face was humble: "My cousin, under the tutelage of hydraulic scientist Jing Shou, led the construction of the Yuejiang River Water Diversion Project, I used to be his fan, every day to watch him command the opening of rocks, tunnels, and canals, which is very interesting." It's just that the terrain conditions of Xishu are complex, and the landscape environment is very different, so it is more difficult to build water conservancy. ”

Sumire Tea sneered: "Sister He is really ice and snow smart, if you change that wine bag and rice bag, if you want to go for ten years, you may not be as good as you." With an idea, he thought about it: "Why don't I ask the king and recommend you to be a water supervisor." ”

When Qinghe heard this, he was shocked: "I don't want to be a Xishu water supervisor, a woman is an official, and I won't be shouted and beaten by a man?" It costs me even more my life. I want to be the water supervisor of Jiawangfu and rescue Yuqiu Mountain. ”

She thought about making jade, but she didn't dare to say it directly, because she was really unsure in her heart: "Although Sumire Tea loves to make jade, as the wife of the king, after a country, she takes care of thousands of men and women, pays attention to thousands of soldiers and horses, loves thousands of mountains and rivers, and maintains thousands of years." Such a queen, when she learns that it is difficult to get jade, is she anxious or worried? Is it sad or sad? Do you want to make a move? Possible rescue? ”

Thinking of this, he was worried, and forced a smile: "Sister Tea, I am only a little familiar with water conservancy, and I am good at talking on paper." As for the diversion of water and the construction of canals, and the large-scale construction of earth and rocks, it still needs such diligent and pragmatic civil and military personnel. ”

Sumire tea frowned for a moment: "Sister He, the water conservancy you envisioned will naturally benefit all generations." However, there is a big problem now, that is: after the Xishu War, the finances are stretched. ”

Hearing this, Qinghe was full of ecstasy: "It turns out that in Sumire Tea's heart, there is one thing that is the most important, and that is: the prosperity of the country. ”

Hearing that Sumire Tea was worried about money, Qinghe was determined: "King Jia's father and son, as the head of the corrupt officials, looted the people's fat, grabbed the people's ointment, expropriated and extorted, insatiable, and rich enough to rival the country." So far, Sumire Tea has taken office with three fires, and King Jia's father and son, together with Mantuo, have not been burned into fire Shura? ”

Don't hesitate anymore and seize the opportunity: "Sister Cha, in fact, Xishu is not short of money, but a thief fills his own pockets." All you have to do is rob the bully's old money, and the money will roll in. ”

Sumire Cha looked fixedly: "Sister He, you and I should really have a soul, according to your opinion, how to rob?" ”

Qinghe is a camp step by step: "Sister Tea, Xishu has suffered several times, and almost wants to be wiped out, and finally can make a comeback, only because of the perseverance of the Shu people, only because of the diligence of the Shu people." Speaking of Shu people, although they are at the bottom of society, they have extraordinary knowledge. In order to survive, he swallowed his anger, but he saw the national economy and people's livelihood clearly. King Jia's expropriation was tyrannical, and the people of Shu were all in their eyes and in their hearts, and even circulated a song: 'The Jiawang Mansion on Loquat Mountain, monopolizing the gold and silver treasury of Xishu'. ”

When Sumire Cha heard this, she was full of emotion: "The king knows this matter, but although King Jia has committed a capital crime, he has been in power for many years and has controlled many consortia, which is intricate and difficult to clear for a while. Although the king abolished the king and dismissed the prime minister, he could not put the old family in a nest in an instant. Because of the horses, the king threw a mouse bogey, and could not liquidate all the Jiawang industries. ”

Qinghe remembered that Zhuo Mu was fair and honest, and couldn't help nodding and praised: "Zhuo Mu loves the people like a son and serves the country loyally, which is really rare." Even the tea people said in private: 'King Jia is a wolf, the king of the curtain is a tiger, father and son are intolerable, and they are like strangers'. However, in my opinion, although the king is righteous and benevolent, the horse does not get half of the benefit, but encourages Mantuo's heart to deceive the superiors and subordinates, and claim the king and hegemony. ”

Sumire tea was difficult to decide for a while: "Yes, all the properties of King Jiawang are basically unchanged and handed over to Mantuo." What's more, if it is collected into the treasury, the widows and widows in the palace will be lonely, and they will not be able to make a living. ”

Qinghe Waner smiled: "They are young and strong, they have hands and feet, just farming and weaving in the palace are enough to solve the problem of food and clothing, how can they not make a living?" ”

Sumire Tea was taken aback: "Sister He, a group of big princesses, little princesses, big county lords, and small county lords in the palace, all of them are nobles for generations, you let them farm and weave?" ”

Qinghe disagreed: "Why not? What kind of prince will Xiangning have? Why not get it for nothing? Ordinary people are born humble? Why should you be a cow and a horse? Whoever it is, I don't work, I don't get; I struggle, I am happy, this is the right thing, this is the right thing. ”

Sumire Tea Wuji was shocked, and her eyes turned into copper bells. She had never heard such deviant words in her life, and she couldn't help but be deeply shocked. After pondering for a long time, he was quite moved: "Although this is not a good thing to hear, although it is shocking, it is a pearl of words. If Xishu wants to cultivate Rongchang internally and resist tigers and wolves externally, it must suppress Haoqiang. ”

Qinghe said bluntly: "Exactly! Nansong lost the country, because of the disaster of the strong. If Xishu does not want to repeat the mistakes of the past, it must crack down on the bullies, develop the national economy and people's livelihood, and benefit the people of Limin. ”

In a word, it is imperative to fight the underworld and eliminate evil.

Sumire tea was a little hesitant: "I don't know how to crack down, not only to hurt the country, but also to maintain order?" ”

Qinghe seized the opportunity and boldly proposed: "Sister Tea, I have a good idea." ”

Sumire Tea was overjoyed when she heard this: "What idea?" ”

Qinghe struck while the iron was hot: "Since ancient times, all wealthy families, all those who indulge in evil, which hands have not been stained with blood?" The Celestial Empire's criminal system clearly states: 'Frame people's lives should be punished according to the law'. With this felony murder, how many big evildoers can be pacified? ”
